Yesterday afternoon / as policemen
Bowen and Picket were walking their
beat a number of women informed
them of the arrival of u colored man
with a white woman as a wife, near the
wharf. The officers repaired to the
place designated ami arrested the par
ties. They give their names as Mr. and
Mrs. James Carter, from Montgomery,
Ala., where they were in Jail, but being
out on bond they came to this point to
avoid the law. They are now quietly
resting in separate cells of our guard
house. She is a white woman of about
thirty-five years and seems to he con
tented with her dusky mate, with whom
she has lived six years.
He is undoubtedly a full-blooded ne
gro and as insolent a scoundrel as we
have ever seen. This morning they
will probably be brought before the
Mayor, who will hind them over until
the Grand Jury can find a true bill, or
the ma.v probably be turned over to the
Montgomery authorities.
Runaway*
Yesterday Broad st-cot was tlio scene
nf some little excitement, occasioned
by a runaway. \ lumber wagon, to
which a pair of horses were attached,
wax standing at tho Columbus Iron
Works, when tho animals became
frightened and ran up the hill to Broad
street, then up it at a “break-neck”
speed. Crowds ran out at the Sans Soilci
to head them, which turned their
course diagonally across tho street.
Tho wagon struck a tree box, demol
ishing it, and then to W. I,. Tillman A
Co.’a, where the tongue struck a post,
which stoppoil them. The hacks gave
the way with promptness. A broken
tongue and some littlo excitement was
the result of tlioir caper. They bolong
to Mr. T. E. Middlobrook.

This troupe played last night to a
small house and tho reason was they
didn’t use onougli printers' ink, beside
tlioir business manager managed badly
at this point.
Tho entertainment was really fresh
and unique. The Combination is verily
a combination of specialties, better than
which none linvc evor appeared in
minstrelsy in Columbus. The olio was
like that of all companies of the some
character.
Our advice to everybody, who may
lisvo the opportunity, is to < see this
entertainment and wo advise them to
alway advertise liberally if they would
draw n /inline. Printers’ ink never fails.

He Abstain, from Nourishment for Mix
Days.
George Francis Train was found ill
bed nt 5} o’clock last evening, in a
small $3 room of the Phuenix House,
New York, up under the roof, where
the air is pure. He puyH $2 a week
only, because lie took the room last
May, when the house was being re
fitted, Aind submitted to u good many
consequent Inconveniences. The
waiter that conducted the visitor to
the room looked bright. He carried
in his hand a pitcher of water. It
was the first drinking water that
Mr. Train had ordered for six days.
By the side of the single bed were
an apple and a biscuit. During two
houm of conversation, Mr. Train used
the apple once to Illustrate the posi
tion of the world as he stood above it
on a mountain ; but lie did not toucli
the biscuit nortnkea sip of the water.
Yesterday morning at 8 o’clock, he
said, had completed u period of six
days since he had token food or
drink. Dr. White had called on him
and urged him to eat. The doctor
was of opinion that he was troubled
with gastric fever. His tongue was
very much coated.
Mr. Train’s family went to him and
urged him to eat something. This
was too much. He could not resist
tlioir appeal, or rather when it was
made he felt no inclination to resist
it. Psychology would explain that,
too. So yesterday morning his fami
ly had some oatmeal and water pre
pared for him, and lie eat about as
much as he could have held in one
hand. On his way to the house he
had slopped at a pump, and was able
to drink a little water. At noon he
had eaten half a biscuit. That was
all lie had eaten in six and a half
days. Tlte biscuit on the table was
for his supper, but he did not care to
eat it.
He had felt a slight desire for water,
and so had ordered some. It was his
usual bedtime. He usually remained
in bed fourteen hours. During the
six days of fasting lie had lost about
ten pounds in weight. His eyes, he
said, had lost their peculiar lustre,
and his knee joints had become weak,
but after eating the handful of oat
meal, eyes and knees ulike had been
restored to their normal state. It was
not the nutriment contained in the
oatmeal that had caused this, but the
mechanical action of the stomach,
which had ceased for want of food,
was again set going, and jxo disense
was averted.

Cotton Situation.—On the week the Co
lumbus stock has increased 174 bales. The
stock Is very heavy, showing u disposition
to hold. Y\ bother this be wise or not Is a
serious question. The position of cotton
appears strong and would be more were it
not for the European warlike and political
compl lent ions,and tho Northern belief which
has effected foreign markets that the crop
will be large. In this last we believe they
will be badly mistaken. On the week prices
have slightly advanced in Liverpool and
New York. Here they have remained firm.
The weather of4he week has been cold and
uncomfortable. The staple is not coming in
near so rapidly ns last year.

Krhrnrk'a Mandrake Fill*
Will l»e found to possess those qualities
necessary to the total eradication of all
bilious attacks, prompt to start the se
cretions of tho liver, and give a healthy
tone to the entire system. Indeed, it
is no ordinary discovery in medical
science to have invented a remedy for
these stubborn complaints, which de
velop all the results produced by a
heretofore free use of calomel, a min
eral justly dreaded by mankind, and
acknowledged to be destructive in the
extreme to tho human system. That
the properties of certrin vegetables
comprise all tho virtues of calomel
without its injurious tendencies, is now
an admitted fact, rendered indisputa
ble by scientific researches; and those
who use the Mandrake Pills will be
fully satisfied that the best medicines
are those provided by nature in tho
common-herbs and roots of the fields.
These Pills open tho bowels and cor
rect all bilious derangements without
salivation or any of the injurious
effects of calomel or other poisons. The
secretion of bile is promoted by those
Pills, as will be seen by the altered
color of the stools, and disappearing of
the sallow complexion and cleansing of
the tongue.
