Ilrownofllle Moving AlonirAU Right—An Kncour- inur Revival In Progress— Picnicking At Poplar Springs—The Wonts Must Wo—Meet lug of tin- school Trustors in til rani— The Debuting So ciety. The week just ended was n quiet one in most rejects in Browneville. While the atmospheric temperature has ranged in the nineties the politi cal temperature has somewhat cooled down, and aside tYom the gubernatorial contest at Mont gomery, the people have had less to talk about than usual. The frequent showers have had a tine ett'eet upon the gardens and patches as well as upon the grass, and the outlook in all respects i- more hopefYil. Several new stores are soon to lie opened in Browneville, and this seems to indi cate that the people have faith in an early im provement in trade. Socially the neighborhood Las been quiet, no events of public note having occurred during the past week. Church Mention. Rev. Mr. Cummings about a week ago started a protracted meeting at Trinity church. Rev. Mr. Culpepper preached two or three evenings to overflowing congregations and then took his de parture for home, leaviug a promise to return which lie has not done as yet. The services were interrupted one or two evenings by rain, and one or two evenings Rev. Mr. Cousins, of the Alaba ma conference, assisted in ministerial labors. The pastor of Trinity has felt so greatly encour aged that he has erected an extensive arbor where outdoor services will be held each night the coming week, the weather permitting. Rev. Mr. Osborne will preach at the church to-day and Rev. Mr. Cummings at the arbor to-night. All interested in religious matters are invited to attend. Services will be held at the Browneville Primi tive Baptist church to-night and Monday night by transient brethren. Elder Bassett will preach to-night and Elder Redd to-morrow night. Rev. Wm. Lively will also he present. Fontaine’s Great Discovery ami Fontaine’s Cure half the price charged in Columbus at Dr. AIcCutcheoivs “Lively Drug Store,’’ Lively, Ala. Another Church Social By the Lady’s Aid Society of the Baptist church will be held at Carder’s hall on Tuesday evening, June22d. It is expected that a large crowd will lend their patronizing presence to the occasion, and that it will prove a pleusaiit social and finan cial success as were similar affairs recently held. “Oh, my corns !” Try Parker’s Com Cure and suffer no more. 15c. at the “Lively Drug Store.” Children's Picnic. Some seventy-five of the pupils and friends of .Miss Nora Floyd's school* gave a picnic yesterday at Poplar Spring, near the creek. It is useless to •say that the children had a nice time in such a nice place, notwithstanding tlie temperature ranged rather high, and rain was frequently threatened. The juvenile temperament is natur ally happy and not so susceptible to the changes which often mar the pleasures of their older friends. The children were taken to the place of rendezvous in vehicles kindly provided by their friends. Earache, Toothache, Backache and every other ache quickly cured by Parker's Rheumatic Lini ment. 25c. at the “Lively Drug Store.’’ Down AVlth the Loafs. Browneville has passed a goat ordinance, which vent into effect yesterday. All goats found on •the streets are to be arrested and impounded, and vnlcHs called for, will be sold to butchers. Owners had better sell out their stock in goats at once, as They are generally esteemed a nuisance in any •community. I Diarrhoea unchecked may develop into acute cholera morbus or cholera.

The town treasurer is $5000 better off’, a fresh heir having appeared during the past tew i\pys. in McC'ollister’s new building in a few days. The town treasury has not been increased much by the mayor’s levees lately. 'The arbor meetings will be a new feature in re ligious worship in Browneville, and if the heated term continues the change will be pleasant. The streets are iu fair condition notwithstand ing heavy rains. Now look well to your lots if you would enjoy health. City Taxes Due. •Street and real estate taxes are now due.

It is said the public road on Long street at Bartlett's bridge is in danger - of being rendered impassable by the inroads of a big ditch at that point.

A Peep at the I'oliiinhas Ragging Factory -It Shows up a Large and Prosperous Institution- What They Make and What They do With Their Products. Columbus well deserves the title of the largest and most extensive manufacturing city in the south. First, there is the Eagle and Phisnix, which is the pride of our town; after it comes the other cotton factories. We have the largest foundry south of Richmond. Then there are the cotton seed oil manufactory and the barrel fac tory and many others. An Enquirer-Sun reporter being attracted by the noise of the machinery at the bagging fhetory, and after having watched the running wheel.*: and their manipulators for some time, deter mined to go in and learn what he could about the factory. Seated in the office, he was kindly fur nished the following information about the busi ness: The bagging factory here is the largest in the south. The members of the Arm, Messrs. Hinde, Preer «te Illges, are among the best busi ness men of the city, aud are making a great suc cess of the business. The factory has been in operation here fur about eight years, and has been satisfactory from the start. The capital ust*d is $75,000, all of it being their own. The mill has H looms, and daily converts 6000 pounds of jute into 3000 yards of bagging. Just take in what a large quantity that is. It is 18,000 yards a week! Think what a pile 36,000 pounds of jute would make. The jute that they use is bought in foreign countries, at a price delivered at New York, find .froju there it is shipped here to be used. The bagging is made for the wrapping of cot ton, and is of rather a coarse quality, being very heavy, weighing two pounds to the yard, it will be seen that in this manufactory, as in all others of the south, only coarse grades of goods aro made. There are two reasons for this: the tirst, that the southern people require more of the coarse qualities than of the line; aud secondly, that because of the short time that the south has been engaged in manufacture, there is a lack of skilled labor. The market of these goods is found in the im mediate neighborhood in Georgia and the neigh boring state of Alabama. The firm finds no dif ficulty in selling all the goods they can make and profitably competing with northern prices. The hours of work are ten, and they employ on an average of about sixty-five hands, most of whom are women. The wages paid are about five dollars a week, but some of the employes, of course, make more, and some less, than that, amount. The kind of work does not require vefy highly skilled labor. The success of this factory proves that manu facturing of thi* kind can be profitably done in the south ; and moreover, it proves the eminent fitness of Columbus as a manufacturing point. We take just pride in our bagging factory, and wish there were a hundred other factories as well and successfully conducted as this one is. THK TOWN < <»V. Another Reason RhyMie Mlist Lo -A Suggestion as to lion to Pasture Them. Enquiri:r-Sun: Emboldened by your editorial of yesterday on the subject of the now famous town cow. 1 too will venture to add my mite to the suggestions already made, and p< rliaps in the multitude of counsel, our city fathers will find safety even though the counsel be volunteered. There is another consideration which does not seem to have occurred to any of your previous correspondents, and that is the duty we owe to our country friend-, and surely Mr. Editor, now as the heated season comes on apace, we ought to be very con siderate of our country cousins, for some of u« might want to maku.a visit to the country soon. From my office window 1 see many country wagons and buggies, driven in the .shade on Broad streeo and the mules and horses fed. and before the unsuspectingcouiitiyman ha- regained the sidewalk, our friend Watt’s flowery scented brindle, with the crumpled born, lias seized Un bundle of toddle, or oats, as the case maybe, and with a haste born of anticipated brickbats, far away before the theft is discovered. And so it is, even when provender is left in the wagons or under the buggy seats, the hungry cows soon scent it out. and leisurely devour what was in tended to feetl some hungry mule, whose owner has come many dusty miles, and is even now, while this sumptuous meal i> in progiess, trailing, perchauce with Mrs. Cow s master, tor corn and hay. In short, the town cow i- an un mitigated nuisance to our country friends when they come here to trade with us. Jr there is any fear tliat the south commons will not be utilized if the cow is prohibited, then let tlie city enclose the commons and charge a nominal rental to those who wish to pasture cows there: or let the city rent, the commons to sons one who will enclose it, and rent it to cow owner-, for pasturage. Butin all events, the townco.v must go. * Carthago delendo.” Spectator. Macon, Savannah. Augusta.

There is no comfort or luxury equal to a goof light at night, and there is none- superior to good gas. Onr citizens can congratulate themselves on the high grade of gas the Columbus Gas Light company is furnishing its customers, since the company concluded to reduce the price of gas. and did so on the 1st of May. the consumption e! it has steadily increased. In many residence- the dirty oil lamp has been discarded and ga- is used. \ number are having gas fixtures placed in their residences preparatory to using gas. The gas furnished by the Columbus Gns Light company is equal to that of any city, and the price is lower as we will show.

Atlanta. Columwus, Ga., June 12. -To the Editor: After carefully reading the article which appeared in your local columns this morning upon the sub ject "Trouble Over the Sidetrack." I concluded it i was but proper that other Diets should be made known to the public. It is stated that Mrs. Kavanagh bus ..led a bill i to restrain the railroad from using this side- | track, principally because the use of it has dopre- I dated the value of her property 25 per cent., and has also rendered her houses less lesirable to rent or live in. and in consequence die loses part of her rent. When this side track was first put in..Mr* Kavanagh expressed the opinion to ^property holder of that vicinity, that the effect would be injurious to their interest*. He gave her his opinion that such would not be the case, but Mrs. K. was so much impressed with her opinion, that the gentleman offered to buy her property at tin- city assessment, but she declined tc sell. Tlie same gentleman is willing to purchase the prop erty now at a fair valuation, and certainly wquUI not expect to buy it for twenty-five j>$.r c^pt.. or in fact any less than it was worth when iliis side track was first put in. He considers it as griod as other investments in real estate of that class, in this city, and bases his judgment on the fact, that the dwellings on this same block, ami even ad joining Mrs. Kavanagh’s property, rent readily. If Mrs. Kavanagh’s house is unoccupied much of the time, it is very probable that the cause is. she wishes higher rent than others ask Tor the same class of houses. If Mrs. Kavanagh has been much annoyed or pecuniarily injured by this side-track, the option of an easy remedy has always been hers, viz : to sell her property. It certainly does not seem just that the discom fort or pecuniary loss of one person, (when such trouble can be as easily remedied as above sug gested), should cause the removal of a side-track that is so valuable to the best interests of the city: more especially as the railroad would, in that event, be compelled to remove all the side tracks now used for the benefit of manufacturing interests, and this would effect the ice factory, .Swill manufacturing company, guau<» works, oil mill and barrel factory.
