At the low value of fifty dollan a bale tha ootton brought to Oolumbna this sea son has brought #3,536,400. Four mil- ion is nearer the amount. Thia has been principally distributed in a region whose radina ia thirty mile*. Obligations have been generally met, and there ie a large amount retained by planters for (his years' operations. In the savings banks of Columbus are over #900,000 drawing five to aavon pot mint., and in addition there are thousand of dollars of the nsosl ran of depoeits. As an average, this sec tion is batter off than almost any time anoeooding the revolution. It is dne to the feet that provisions to a groat extent have bean raised at horns. The Cue of Auk Ligon.

Considerable noise is being made in tho papers North and Mouth that Augusta is about to inaugurate a new ootton mill of 10.000 spindles, and some of the journals speak of Angnsta as tha Lowell of tbs Sooth. If any plaoe in onr country do- serves snoh a title it is Colnmbns. It is stated the principal stockholders in the Angnsta mill are Maaaaobnaetts people. Colnmbns is building a 20,000 spindle manufactory, tha stockholders of which are Georgians. In 1SG5, Columbus was rained by Federal raiders, and 60,000 bales of ootton and millions of other prop- arty wont np in smoke, fired by tho torob of the enemy. Since that time led on and encouraged by the energy and fora hooght of snoh master minds of Mr. W. H. Young wa find along onr' river in daily operation 40,000 spindles and 1,500 looms, and six stories of another gigantic brick edifice nearly completed, which, in six months willin' creass the prodnotive capacity to 60,000 spindles and 2,500 looms. These establishments do not torn out simply white ootton doth and osnsbnrgs, as before the war. The Eagle and Phs- nix Company manufaotnre ootton blank ets, ohecks, stripes, eottonadee, osssi- meres and fabrics of the most baantifnl designs. Instead of oopying from the Northern mill, they copy from oars, only making lighter goods. The ootton blanket, quite oommon in Franoa and Germany, is made by only one mill in tho United States, and that is the Eagle and Phenix. Wa have heard it stated that when Mr. Yonng was in France, he waa refused admission into every establishment where snoh products were manufactured. By frequent exper iments, the present baantifnl article of the Eagle and Phenix is given to tha world. Colnmbns seams created for a great maonfaoturing town. Our dam is equal to 3,000 horse power, whioh will ran 180, 000 spindles, and with the new mill and the Muscogee only GO,000 will be run by it. In s distance of four miles the natan si foil of the river is 120 feet, and the power is oofitrollable at all seasons of the year. On the site of the Columbus Fac tory, situated three miles above the city, engineers estimate that by building a wing dam from tbe various islands, which will oost a few thousand dollars, tbe pow er to ran one million and a half spindles can be obtained. Tbe stream there seems to pour through a natural tailway, or obaunel, with rook walls, and we believe the natural dosoent is seventy feat in less than s mile. There is an abundance of the granitic formation, easily blasted, to supply material for any number of facto ries. Nature has scooped out this basin and surrounded it with lofty bills for pur poses benefioial to mankind. A more charming location cannot be found. Be sides river communication to the gnlf, we have railway connection with every part of tbe continent. Columbus proudly olaims she ia illus trating Georgia, and adopting the Barest mode of drawing to Georgia foreign oap- ital. She ia showing that onr own citizens are not afraid to venture in snob enter prises, that they do so, and make money by it. Tbe Eagle and Phenix Company ■inoa 1869, eight years, has dsolsred divi dends of #750,000. This year will be paid #100,000 in dividends. This, too, while mills at the North have bean starv ing, working on shorter time and dimin ished force, at a loss or breaking. Not alone to ootton industries does Co lumbus appeal to show her enterprise. Probably tbe largest iron foundry in Georgia is established here, built on tbe ashes of Federal General Wilson’s raid, large plow manufactories and wood shops of various kinds and immense brick-yards —all the results of home enterprise end the investments of home oapital. Notwithstanding all these gigsntio un dertakings and successes whioh have add ed so rnuoh to the wealth of our State and apeak so proudly of Georgia’s sa gacity and Sonthern skill and preaoienoe, we read not long sinoe in a small weakly paper published in a small railroad town allnsiona to Columbus and Augusta as “the slowest towua in tbe Stale.” If en hancing the material sod permanent wealth of the State, if the creation of multiplied industries, giving employment to thousands, if drawing money to onr Commonwealth from the Atlsntio to tha Paciflo and tbe lakes to the gulf, if in creasing tbe native prodnet of (ha soil three to four fold, if moating obligations honorably and promptly ooostitnte slow towns, and not merely the distribation of Western groceries and commercial ma nures to as great an extent as some do, then the more alow towns we have in Georgia the bettor for onr proud old Stato. They will eventually work out tha salva tion of the State and solve the problem of tbs independence of the Sooth. Let us have more We, H. Yoonga and slow towns and onr seetion will flourish in wealth aud ocoupy the proud position of perfeot political and material indepen dence and be the garden spot of tbs world. Disinfection o/ Diek Koomi. Tbe following we find going the rounds and is worthy of publication, as it con tains a good deal that people should know: Flowers taken from a room whore a per son lies ill of an infeotiona or contagions disease, ore said to eonvey tho oontagion. This is no reason why tha patient should be deprived of flowers, bat they should be immediately burnt or removed from tho room. It is while fasting that wa are moat likely to take an infeotious disorder. Then it is better, if possible, to take a breakfast, though ever so hasty a one, bafora entering the aiok-room. Tho olothes that have not oome into very oloso oontaot with a person suffering from an infeotiona or oontagioas disease may be purified by being aired for a day before a biasing fire. But no degree of airing, oleansing or brushing will purify an in- fso ted bed. Tbe feathers, wool or Hook— as the case may be—most be thoroughly eleansed, as also th.Tiok, before tha bed can be safely slept on. A lot of Toilet Soaps, Gelatine and Flavoring Extraots, for sale cheap, at tf Mason's Dana Stubs. dig Clook. The Need of tout general time, on which all can agree, has tong been felt in Colnmbns. Major A. M. Allen has un dertaken tha work of (applying a large oity oloek, to be plaosd on the main tow er of tha Eagle and Phenix Manufactu ring Company's new building. At four o'clock last afternoon he told ns that ha had secured #250, but the objaet. weald oost oost #500. Tbe Major is one of tha man who know no snoh word as fail. He remarked, as long ta hs bad undertaken tbs projeot, be must snooeed. It was a ground hog oaaa. The funds mast oome. Every little helps. Tbs site proposed Is the best in the oity. The steeple of the Presbyterian ohurch is not snfllsiently largo. Lot's have tba oloek. Tbe pro ject ia so near completion that it would be a shame for it to prove a failure. Tha Major ia dstarminad on aaeeoM, and it ought to erown his effort*. Megulellng Ike Steps of Women. Style has very nearly metamorphosed oar ladies who follow them into mere automatons. They have already gotten to tha pass that tha dinging skirts cannot toll truth from falsehood. There is so mnoh make np and fill out, so muoh bought and perhaps unpaid for hair and ootton that it is impossible to tall what i* woman and what is tha prodnet of tha factories. Word comes from Paris of a recent oontrivanoe of tbe modistes, by whioh tho long trains and eoUant dresses are to bo ratiined in position. A strong elsstie is attached to one gartar, just above tba knee, oarrisd over and fasten ed to the other; Thus tha length of tho slope taken by tha waarsr is regulated, and the olaasioal folds of the costume re main undisturbed. BAEBI It I) WAR It B. M. BROWN. He ts now in the oity, a guest of Mr. Julius Newman. Dr. Brown will leoture to-morrow night on the “Oraeiflxion of Christ, or Have the Jews lteslly Crnoi- fied Christ," in tbe Opera House. He has delivered this leotnre in ohurohes of all ProteBtant denominations, and was al ways invited to repeat it. Tbe Mont gomery Advertiesr has the following: His theme waa “The Oraeiflxion,” end his argument waa intended to prove that the Jews were not responsible for that deed. After a very interesting introduc tion he announced bis purpose to show that tbe Jews did not crucify Christ— that tbey did not iudnoe tbe Romans to do it—that tl)ey did not justify the Romans for this sot—and that modern Jews do not now justify it. We will not attempt to follow tbe learned dootor in his argu ments replete with learning, eloquenoe, thought and humor. Wo will only say that for two hours and a half he bold bis audienoe spellbound. To-night (Wednesday) Dr. Brown will deliver a sermon in tbe Synagogue. Grand Central Hotel. Hot Springe, Arkaneat This hotel, situated in Hot Springs, At- kanass, is first-class in every respeot, and deserves, and justly receives, a large pat ronage. Mr. D. Ballentine ia proprietor, aud is oourteous and accommodating to ail who stop under bis hospitable roof. Major A. M. Allen, of this oity, while travelling through that country not long sinoe, inform* us that be stopped at this hotel, and that be never bad tbe pleasure of boarding at one superior in any respeot. Tbe most exoellent and polished landlady sees that one receives every possible oora. fort by giving her personal attention to everything. When yon go to Hot Springs be Bare to stop st the Grand Central Hotel. MoEoog’e Hibernieo. Thia troupe gave a matinee yesterday afternoon to a very large andienoe, about two-tbirds of whioh were ohitdren. It was a firat-olasa entertainment for obildren, if we may judge by tbe manner in whioh tbey seemed to enjoy it. At night they played to a very “slim” house with some ohangea of programme from that of Monday night. Tbe troupe will remain bare daring tbe belsnoe of tbe week on aoooant of Holy Week, bat will not give any more enter tainments. Some of tbe company, we underatand, will sing in the Catbolio Ohuroh Sunday. Personal. Dr. Edward B. M. Brown is in the oity. He will announoe to the pnblie when he expeots to deliver his laotnre.

Last Thursday night, the saw mill of Mr. Diok Stratford, of Kuaaell oounty, Alabama, waa burned. It was valued at about #2,000, and there waa no iosurance on it. Ho had bought it about two weeks ago and waS’making preparations for do ing an sxoelleut business. Mr. Stratford is a hardworking, saving and prosperous farmer and the community will regret to learn his misfortune. The fire is supposed to be the work of an iuoandiary. Funeral of Mre. Sarah C. Bland ford This lady, tho wifa Col. M. H. Bland- ford of Wynnton, waa interred yesterday morning at 10 o’olook in the oemetery of this oity. Tha funeral rites were per. formed at her late residence by Bov. A. B. Campbell, paator of the Baptist ohnreh. The pall bearers were Messrs. W. H. Brannon, R. J. Moses, James Russell, L. G.
