FRIDAY MORNING'S FIRE, The two adjoining stores which were bnrned yesterday morning on the corner of Broad and Bryan streets are valued at about $5,000, and are insured in the Georgia Home for $2,000. Loss about $3,000. In one of these stores was quite a small amount of guano, merely samples, which was not insured. Mr. Charley Greene, agent for W. H. Toung, was in charge of the guano store and only had the rent in sured and one quarter of the time remain ed to expire. Loss of oourse is very slight. The Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company, represented by Jordan & Blackmar, oar - ried this risk. Mr. Thos. E. Middlebrook occupied the next store. His stock was insured in the Home Protection, D. F. Wilcox, Agent. The stock was valued at about $1,200, and loss is abont $100. Daring the fire Mr. Alex Watts, wife and child made a very narrow escape from the building. Messrs. Bob Miller, Dr. Pool and Lunsford Daniel oame near be ing killed by a falling wall. Madness in Love. Ihe following was handed us yesterday as written by a lady whose feelings can be appreciated by reading it. Something was subscribed for a name, but it was in tentionally written that no one could read it: To When I loved you, I can't but allow, I had many an exquisite minute ; But the acorn that 1 feel for you now, Hath evermore luxury in it. Thus whether we're on or we’re off, Pome wi.chery seems to await you ; To love you was pleasant enough, And, 01>, it’s dolicious to hate you, Respectfully, Mart. pro Kills Another With An Ax. t Shorter’s station on the Western tad, Friday night, two negroes, i names we could not learn, got into t and one killed the other with an |t occurred just outside of s cabin in were other negroes who heard the g.

Dear Enquirer : The pic-nie a—on is almost over. Perhaps the one about which we are now writing will be the last yon will chronicle during this year. Your oolumns for some time past have been filled with glowing accounts of excursions to Fort Mitchell, steamboat pie-nios, Ao., bnt I dare say no more enjoyable occasion has been noticed in your columns, than the Sunday School pio-nic of the opera tives of the Columbus Manufacturing Company, which took plaoe July 7th, at Kiogsboro, the terminus of the North and South Road. At 6:30 o’clock a. m., your correspondent boarded the train, and in a few minutes we were at the Beal wood car ahed, where old and young, little and big, crowded on; in all abont one hun dred and seventy. Almost every body living at the factory went. Those who did not go were either infirm or kept away by sickness. It was a general holiday fpr the opera tives, and the efficient President, General Chilton, had spared neither pains nor money to make it a day of enjoyment for all. By 9 o’clock we were on the grounds and soon everybody was in the highest of enjoyment. Some gathered in groups and ohatted pleasantly, while others pre- pared swings and looked after the differ ent forms of amusejnent. But we were soon thirsty, and here again the kindness of General Chilton was seen in the large supplies of lemons, sugar, ice, candy, crackers, Ac., which he had sent up—and which Messrs. Rober son and Randall, the Superintendents re spectively of the Sunday school and factory, were preparing in the form of tbemost delicious lemonade. After that came the dinner. Dotted all over the green sward in groups of from five to thirty could be seen the hungry ex cursionists. And oh, such an abundance and richness of provisions we have rarely seen before. As is usual there was enough left to feed twice as many. We thought of you, Mr. Editor, all cooped up in your narrow cell, vexing yonr brain over a prosy editorial on the European war. Regret that yon could not be with ns, for even an Editor might have eaten until cloyed, so abundant and sweet was the viands brought forth. And thus the day passed off. We do not think that ever a picnic excursion to King9boro was more hugely eojoyed than this one* At 6 p. m., we left for home under the care of the polite conductor, Mr. Holt. The lemonade and candy passed around freely once more, and the ride home was enjoyed finely. And as we close this communication, we lift a fervent prayer that we may live to enjoy many more snch excursions to Kingsboro. And, as John Gilpen sung— “When we do ride again, May you be there to see.’’ Factory. PROGRAMME CONCERT Columbus Choral Union. TUESDAY, JULY IOth, 1877. prices. tf J. Albert Kibven. Photography.

A friend sends ns the following: He esme into our camp, “El Capitan Chiq- uito,” a chief of the Apaches, a breech* Clout and a fine pair of moccasins his costume; following at his heels, three squaws, the first somewhat aged, the sec ond younger, the third, abont sixteen, and what is of rarcjoecurrenee amongst the “noble zeds,” very pretty. All were dressed alike, with a loose, low necked, sleeveless sacque, a skirt reaching to the knees and moccasins with long tops com* ing op to the bottom of the skiit. My boots were somewhat worn and I thongbt this a good opportunity to purchase some neoessary apparel for my feet. Moccasins wear very pleasantly, so I stepped up to the chief, saluted him with “how,’ touched his moccasin®, sat down and pulled off my boots. The chief gravely seated himself, pulled off his moccasins and banded them over to me. Finding them to fit I arose to my feet, and said “how mueh.” The chief held up two fingers. I handed him two dollars, which he took, and then gathered on to my boots. “Hold on, old horse-fly!” I cried, “that aint in the bargain. 111 take pos session of them,” and I grabbed them from his hands. The chief pointed to his naked feet, and mattered something abont bow he was going to get back to San Carlos. I told him I didn’t take the con tract to transport him there; that he eonld make hia squaws fit him up a new pair of moccasins for all I knew or eared. “Tobacco,” then he added. “Not a bit of it,” said I, “tobacco is tobacco in this camp; the two dollars is everything yon are going to get out of me,” and I put my boots under my arms and walked into oar cabin. The whole party followed me in. I placed chairs for them and motioned them to sit down. ‘‘Well, now, Capitan,” said I, “since you appear to be in the notion of trading, I want a maid to attend to keeping this shanty in order and do my washing. This little squaw will about fill the bill. I’ll give yon five dollars and a jackass for her,” and I stepped out to where the pretty one was and laid my band caress ingly on her shoulder. The chief turned and with a mixture of gestures, Spanish, English and Indian, “orated” the English of which is“El Capi tan Americana”—the star-eyed daughter of the Apaches is dear to the heart of her chief. His soul cleeves and clings to her, the youngest of his wives. She has to him the beanty of the rising and the setting son. She is his own, Not all the gold and silver in these mountains or a herd of Sonora “Bonvo's” would tempt the Chief to part witn her. Bad of heart is the warrior who wonld sell his squaw. It is not for me, El Capitan Chiquito, the bravest of bis tribe, whose band has been reddened many times with the blood of his enemies, qnd whose wig wam is lined with their scalps, to pat such a disgrace upon the people and upon him self. The Apache Chief never sells his wives, but— Here I wilted before this flood of elo quence. Tears sprang into my eyes. I strode over and grasped the band of the brave, and wiping away the tears with my handkerchief, sobbed out— “Noble child of the mountains and of the plains. Now indeed, have I before me Fennimore Cooper’s heroic ideal of the fo the American Indian. Long have I sought for him in vain amongst the nu merous tribes of my acquaintance. He, at last, stands before me revealed in the person of an Apache chief. Neither for gold nor for jackasses will he sell his wives. Happy and honored chieftain j snch heroic virtue I'never expected to see. Take precedence hereafter of the American people. They are only allowed one wife; but I know of some of my friends who would most gladly accept of the offer I have made. Aye, even goiDg to the extent of rejecting the proffered jaekass and throwing in one or two in order to get rid of their “heart’s darling.” (A million jackasses wouldn’t tempt me though to step into their boots.) “After receiv ing such a reply, O chief, to my propo* sition, I feel abashed in thy presence, Sir!’’ I continued, “I beg leave to apolo gize, for." “But” interrupted the savage, continu ing where he had left off; “but, if El Capitan Americana really wishes to buy squaw, and he won’t ‘blow on’ me, I sell him the old one cheap. Five dollars. Tell ’em she run way with pale face. Little squaw ‘muncho bueno.’ Cant sell her.” I arose to my full height in a storm of indignation and wrath at being so badly taken in by the opening speech of the chief, dropped his band, pulled off my right moocasiu, slipped on my heavy boot, oaught him by the ear, led him to the door and kicked him about seventeen feet outside, adding the remark as he spun through the air that the next time a free American citizen wanted to know whether or not he wished to sell his squaw to tell him so in plain English, and not to go getting off any more of his orations; that a second provocation of the kind would cause a keg of nitro glycerine to be ex ploded under his breechclout and that when it went off, he would think Asia and America had collided, and that he was a gnat caught between them. The American People. No people in the world suffer as much with Dyspepsia as Americans. Although years of experience in medicine bad fail ed to accomplish a certain and sure rem edy for this disease and its effects, such as Sour Stomacb, Heart-burn, Water Brash, Sick Headache, Costiveness, Pal pitation of the Heart, Liver Complaint, coming up of the food, low spirits, gen eral debility, etc., yet since the intro duction of Green's August Floweb we believe there is no case of Dyspepsia that cannot be immediately relieved. 30,000 dozen sold last year without one case of failure reported. Go to your Druggist and get a Sample Bottle for 10 cents and try it. Two doses will relieve you. Reg ular Size 75 oents. my8 dAwly Mr. Gifts Williams.

Philip, United States Navy, will be detached to the command, and other officers of the Navy will be detailed as subordinate officers. The vessel is fitted with state rooms and saloons for work, study, lec tures and all other uses of a scientific and educational tour; will be furnished with a library containing the best books of scienoe and travel, relating especially to places embraced in the rout, with scientific ap paratus for the investigation of all natural products and phenomena.

The scheme is attractive, and if it proves to be successful, will be likely to be follow ed by others on a still larger scale. The Naked Truth.—At noon yester day a policeman found a boy bathing in a slip near the foot of Randolph street, and he called to the lad to come out and be arrested like a man for breaking the ord inance. “Is it agin the orjunance for a boy to fall into the river?” queried the bather. “No sir but you are naked.” “Does the law say that a boy has got to have bis clothes on when he falls in.” “The ordinance prohibits bathing here, and now you come out.” “Is it bathing when a feller cuts his foot on a piece of tin, knocks his head agin a beam, and swallows four catfish and a gob of mud.” “I want you!” called the officer. “What foT?” called the boy. “I command you to come out.” “ I can’t come,” sorrowfully answered the bather. “The real truth is, I jumped in here to rescue a drowning female, but her hair pulled off and she’s at the bottom, as I have no witness Idasn’t go to trial.” “I’ll bring yon out!’ growled theoffieer as he made for a boat, but the boy dis appeared and was seen no more. While the officer was looking under the wharf the half of a good-sized sand pile suddenly slid down the back of his neck and into his boots, and a musics familiar was beard gaying: “My shirt’s on hind side afore, breeches turned around, and this vest is wrong end up, but I feel as clean as a new stampfromthe postoffice, and Lor! what so appetite I’ve got for pop-corn balls.”— Detroit Free Press. The pay of the Turkish soldier is not as munificent as heart could wish—not in this unfriendly wonld, at least—for it is said that he gets but three cents a day; but, then, when amid the thunder of guns and led by the sacred crescent, he seeks to “go where glory waits him,” and a Russian shell hits him amidships and knocks him into a cooked hat, his pay in Paradise ia beyond all bounds.—Courier- Journal. The Isxt ■•ww-Blavea l to Majority Certala. The Tribune's special Washington cor respondent telegraphs as follows: A statement was given to the newspa pers a fats days ago, ostensibly on the ao - thority of Clerk Adams, to the effect that the Detnoeratio majority in the now House, according (o his oompleted roll, would be only eight. This may have been a typo graphical mistake. An active Republican, who has bad an opportunity of examining the roll filed in the offioe of the Treasurer of the United States, as evidence upon which members are paid, says that it shows 152 Democrats to 132 Republicans, with seven vacancies. There are 293 members, and if the Re publicans win all th9 contested seats it will make the House stand, Democrats 152, Radicals 141—a Democratic majority of 11. If the Democrats win these seats it will stand 159 Democrats, and 134 Rad icals, showing a majority for the Demo crats of 25. The President of the Caban Republic, Don Tomas Estrada, takes a very cheerful view of the prospects of the Insurgents. In a recent letter to a friend in New York be says, after reviewing the work of the Insurgents daring the past year: “Take into consideration also all the circum stances which are to-day against them in the enormous extent of oonntry over which the revolution holds donrnion, and then let the most obstinate of Spaniards, or the most pusillanimous of Cubans, say if it ia .within the probabilities that Marti nez Campos, Qaesada or any other of the most famous Generals of the Spanish army, will be able either to pacify the island by force of arms, or even to pre vent the patriots, who are carrying on the war, from winning in the end the inde pendence of Caba.” Such being the case, the “patriots” seem to be getting along very well, and do not need the “active support” of the United States.

Iu order to keep a natural healthful activity of the system we must resort to artificial means. For this purpose Sohenck’s Sea Weed Tonic is very effectual. A few doses will create an appetite and give fresh vigor to the ener vated body. For dyspepsia it is invalua ble. Many eminent ^physicians have doubted whether dyspepsia can be perma nently cured by the drugs which are gen erally employed for that purpose. The Sea Weed Tonic in its nature is totally different from such drugs. It contains no corrosive minerals or acids; in fact, it assists the regnlar operations of nature, and supplies her deficiencies. The tonic in its nature so much resembles the gas tric juice that it is almost identical with that fluid. The gastric juice is the natu ral solvent which, in a healthy condition of the body causes the food to be digest ed; and when this juice is not excreted in sufficient quantities, indigestion, with all its distressing symptoms follow. The Sea Weed Tonic performs the dnty of the gastric juice when the latter is deficient. Sahenck’s Sea Weed Tonio sold by all Druggists. jyl eodlm Procure a bottle of Thrash’s Consump tive Cure and Lung Restorer, and stop that dreadful cough.
