It is a little hard on that account to make sales, but there is a very good demand. The seller says, 'Here, if you will give my price, correct. If you won’t, let It alone?’ He thinks he will get his ligures after awhile if not now, and that Ills real estate is a good thingtokeep. And, as a rule, his position is correct, because we believe, all of us do, that Columbus Is growing In importance and population continually and that real estate is likely to enhance as a whole for some time to oome.” The truth is that since the Georgia Midland and Gulf road became a certainty, and now that the extension of the Columbus and Western is about to materialize into a reality, the people —3 every fellow says who get« in a crowd and wanin'] to tell a joke.

Incidents uow and then come up to show how assiduously our people watch after the interest of the city. All the managers of the steamboat companies lure, and a large number ofthe citizens, sent the president a petition, of which the following is a copy: Columbus, Ga., June 18.—President Columbus Board of Trade : The undersigned request that you call a meeting of the Board of Trade at as early a date as possible, to consult about the present condition of Chattahoochee river, and to suggest means for its improvement, and desire that an invitation be sent to R. L. Hoxie. cap tain engineers U. S. A., at Montgc mery, Ala., to meet with the board.” Capt. Hoxie was invited to attend the meeting ofthe board of trade, and yesterday his answer was received. He is anxious to visit Columbus and learn something about the river from actual observation. He regrets that he cannot come sooner, but if the board will postpone the meet ing until about the middle of July, he will take pleasure in accepting the invitation. As there is no particular necessity for doing so earlier, the president will call the meeting when it is convenient for Captain Hoxie to be present, and he has been so informed. Speaking ofthe river reminds us that there is a strong probability of a cessation of hostilities among the different steamboat lines. The fight will no doubt wind up very soon and satisfactorily to all the boat owners. The matter is now under adjustment between the three railroads interested, and ifthey fail to come to an agreement they have all promised to leave the adjustment to arbi tration. We do not give this as rumor, but as a fact. It would make a farmer laugh at one’s ignorance ofthe weather to talk to him about dust just now, while the crab grass is trying to run away with his crop and the water follows along the plow furrow. But that was what a neatly dressed gen tleman was talking about at the Rankin house last night. He had just arrived by the Columbus and Western train and said: “I was annoyed and almost angered as I came over on the cars bj' the passenger who sat right in front of me. He insisted on keeping the win dow raised, admitting a stream of dust and cin ders which overspread my clothes, penetrated my nostrils and throat and rendered any approach to comfort impossible.” To this his companion, with whom he was con versing, gave vent to his views thusly: “You cannot ride far iu an ordinary train before this fiend comes iu and makes you miserable. The ordinary modern car is sufficiently ventilated to admit of the windows being kept closed all the time, both winter and summer, and they should be made so that the passenger could not open them.

Columbus, Ga., June 26.—I promised with per mission of the Enquirer-Sun to have something more to say when “N. E. M.” replied to certain questions addressed to him, the most important of which he totally failed to answer, tc-wit: Name the brands and quantity applied per acre of the guano used as well as the quantity of your mixture applied by it? His reply discloses the fact that instead of using several, as stated, he used only one this year, which instead of costing him a bale of cot ton was purchased on a credit for 275 pounds, whereas he paid 120 cash for his material un mixed. He could have purchased the same gu ano, or other brands just as good for $25 cash, thus showing a difference of only $5 instead of $20 which he said the farmer paid for mixing. Having failed to answer these very significant questions, it is impossible to draw any definite conclusions as to the relative merits or costs of | the two, as fertilizer materials are sold on th disposed of at prices ranging from three fi r a dollar do wnward.

Special to Enquirer-Sun. Hurtsboro. Ala., June 26.—The Hurtsboro social and literary club had a most delightful meeting last evening at the residence of Dr. Long. Many fair young ludiesand gallant beaux graced the occasion, aud not until the wee small hours did the sweet strains of “Home, Sweet Home" signal the parting hour. Ice-cream and other refreshments were served in great abund ance. Among the visitors were Mr. C. D. Hurt, jr., of Macon, Ga., Mr. Julieu Long, Miss Laura Long and Miss Lizzie Rhodes, ot Eufaula, Ala. The excessive rains lately have done a great deal of injury to the crops. Farmers complain greatly of the grass and many think they will j have to abandon most of the low lands. ! Mr. J. YV.

They reported that Sheriff* Bellamy did the job up in good style. Miss Laulie Brown is spending a few days visit ing relatives in your city. The Russell Register, one of the best weekly papers iu our state, came to us this afternoon with the full particulars ol the Davis hanging. The execution took place at 11:53 a. in., and the papers were mailed at 3:30 p. ni.

Aud she waited. of pi • Best : Just a week ago we had something to say about trees in the city. They are not only pretty to the eye and give comfort to man and beast, but they are whole some. The sanitary value of trees to the city of Colum bus cannot well be overestimated. It is a well- known fact that during the intense heat ot sum mer there is more suffering and death from sun stroke and high temperature in the northern cities than in the south, a result which nnw cer tainly he attributed to absence of suitable pro tection. From three to five thousand people die every summer in the metropolis from the effects ofthe heat. In the arid, treeless streets and avenues the temperature often runs from 130 to 150 I* ah., when under the branches of a thrifty shade tree it would not exceed 70- or 80 . In the absence of sheltering trees, the stone and brick walls act on the principle of the regenerative ftirnace, and absorb the heat ot the sun to yield it up again during the night. It trees were planted iu tlie streets the pavemeuts and surrounding walls would be much coole r, and at the same time the trees would absorb the deleterious gases thrown off from the lungs and from decomposing matter, yielding, in return, a supply of pure oxygen. The value of a systematic culture' of trees in all of our large cities can hardly be estimated. From both a sanitary aud artistic standpoint, they are a very desirable addition to any city. “That reminds me of another one," is what food in it that is phosphoric acid. Consequently farmers are sometimes misled in their conclusions as to the relative merits of a fer tilizer on soil tests, because if we apply an acid phosphate containing only one of these constitu ents to u land naturally rich iu ammonia and pot ash, we would discover little or no difference >n the product, for the reason that an increase in the amount of ammonia and potash used on a crop, does not always increase the yield, but the contrary is true of the phosphates. On a land naturally supplied with one. the ap plication of a fertilizer containing ail three, would not increase the yield over another fertilizer con taining only two, unless it be phosphoric acid. This is an inorganic element which experiment- show may be applied to all kinds of lands, rich or poor, in unlimited quantities, to more or less profit, according to the presence < t a sufficient supply of nitrogen, which is the only organic element needed in ordei If V.i Bant Mums rick call at Albright's shoe store in McUollister building, where you will find a variety of fine aud common shoe- suited to ali feet, ,?t prices to -suit.
