Columbus Advertisements.
Messrs. Baldwin & Underwood are
agents for the Wilson sewing ma
chine,*which is not only considerably
cheaper, but is said to excel all other
first-class maehiues. Parties needing
a machine, would do well to take a
look at the Wilson before buying.
Messrs. Peacock So Swift offer a
large and handsome stock as low as
can be bought in the city. Mr. P. is
an accommodating gentleman, and
lias long been identified with the dry
goods trade of Columbus. Mr. S. is
an old citizen of the city, one of her
most liberal cotton dealers, and in
every way reliable.
8. Landaucr Sc Hr©. advertise a
large and well selected stock, which
they have bought to soil, and not to
keep. Mr. J. A. Kirveti is with
them, and will be pleased to seo hia
old friends.
If you want anything in the cloth
ing line, you can find it in the large
and well made stock of lloffliu, Rich
Jt Cos. These gentlemen advertise a
large lot of diagonal suits, besides all
grades and stslcs of cassimcres, hats,
Heads, etc.—in fact, everything usu
ally kept in a first-class clothing cs
tahhshMieut.
The only reliable cook, in these
days of freedom, is a good stove. If
yoa want to get your wife ono of the
best in use, buy a Charter Oak in
Columbus of W. 11. Bobarts Sc Cos.
Messrs. Jkumoltit Cos., offer their
•took of stoves, hardware, house fur
iirdjiag goods, etc., at prices as low
as any intlm oity. They will also do
any hind of .tin or sheet iron work.
The stsdk Ur. J. L. Cheney Sc
Son is all mew, fresh, and reliable.
Dr, C. has been practicing over thirty
years, and for the last fifteen years,
hi and near the city, lie Ims always
occupied the front rank.

A Kkboskxk llonuoK.—ln the
township ef Cascade, Kent county,
Michigan, lately, Mrs. M. 6. Smith
was sitting tyt doing some work, her
husband and sou having gone to bed,
when a kerosene lamp et{dold, en
veloping the unfortunate woman in
llamcs. 'With a shriek of terroor she
awakened her husband and rushed
out of the house, followed by her
husband. Mr. Smith, with his hands
and snow endeavored to extinguish
the dame*, but did not succeed until
tbe clothing of his wife was burned
completely off, and her body so badly
burned that she cannot live. Mr.
Smith was so badly burned that he
will l>e a cripple for life, and it is
feared totally blind. While this
heartrending ttoeue was going on
outside, the boy, a lad about four
teen year* old, and the house were
forgotten. The burning oil set the
house on fire and it and tbe sleeping
hoy were con sun cd.

Declared Unconstitutional.
Judge James Johnson, of the Mus
cogee Cuircuit, has recently decided
the ficedmeti’s contract law of 1806
—making it a misdemeanor for a
planter to hire a freedman who is al
ready under contract with another
to be unconstitutional. Two cases of
this kind came up on the criminal
docket, and ho ordered a nolle pro-
Hi'ptii entered in each instance Judge
Johnson’s reasons for his decision
were these : This law abridges the
rights of citizenship by inflicting a
system of compulsory labor upon a
certain class of persons, ihe.Con—
Ktiintioii says there shall be no invol
untary servitude exacted except for
the commission of crime ; yet this
law, by its operations, compels a
freedman to remain with and peifortu
labor for a planter although he does
not desire so to do, aifd, it left to bis
own free choice, would depart at
once. The conpnlsion consists in
using the people of the neighborhood
as n sort of guard over the laborer, as
it is made a misdemeanor for any-per
son to hire or employ him. 1 Ids,
Judge Johnson claims, puts the hoot
on the wrong foot, as the freedman
himself, not the planter thus employ
ing him, is the responsible party in
the matter. If a freedman contracts
to work for a planter, and for any
reason whatever leaves bis employer
before the time of service expires,
the planter mu*t hold that freedman
responsible in a civil suit for dama
ges, ami not seek redress through a
criminal suit, under the law referred
to, against another planter, who may
have Hid>scijiienlly employed the de
serting freedman. —Auyueta Chron

Wholesale Hums ess.— We a' e glad
to soe that at least our dry goods
merchants are awaking up to the im
portance of looking after the whole
saling business of thin section. Du
ring the past few weeks quite a number
heavy bills have been sold to country
merchants in our crea of territory,
and there ia no reason why many
others should not eome here to lay
in their stocks. The truth of the
business is, Columbus merchants have
quietly allowed Atlanta, Macon and
Montgomery to slip in and gobble up
this description of trade, while we
have been content to take the little
fetail that Inis happened to come
along. We hnvf all the ad vantages
in dry good* that neighboring cities
have, mid it is high time that our
merchants were letting country deal
ers know It. We are assured by
some of our loading dry goods men
that they can duplicate New York
hills, with freights ami other neces
sary expenses added. This being the
case there is no necessity for country
dealers to waste time and money in
going to New York. Let them come
here to make their purchases. A
trial will satisfy them that it is to
their interest to do so.— Enquirer.
CST* Sarah Ilutillon, a factory girl
of New Hampshire, has had a fairy
history. In a newspaper she acciden
tally anw the name of a Mr. Hutillon,
of Natchitoches, who bail taken part
in some public demonstration, The
name being quite uncommon, Sarah
wrote a modest letter of enquiry,
giving her own genealogy, ami sug
gesting that there might bo some re
lationship. In a fortnight cnine an
answer, cheerfully written in which a
distant relationship was demonstra
ted. Tho Southerner added that he
was old, without family, and had
few friends, and earnestly hoped for
a continuation of the correspondence.
Agreed to, and kept up for three
years; but her last letter remained
unanswered for three months, when
oamo a letter from Mr. Hutillion’s
lawyer, informing her that the dem
ob! man had left her his w hole prop
erty, amounting to over $400,000.
Sarah, by the wav, just before receiv
ing the news had married a yonng
man ot her own rank, and now they
have gone down to Natchitoches to
look after their assets.
N nwsrArtc**. —A child beginning
to road, becomes delighted with
newspapers becauso it reads of names

every father must consider that sub
Manual information is connected with
this advancement. The tnotlwr of a

A Grateful Editor.
The editor of the Philadelphia Dis
patch lias been made the happy recip
ient of some interesting reading mat
ter, and lie very properly expresses
bis thanks thusly:
We owe our thanks to Judge Kelly
for the hi-t Patent office report. We
already have sixteen hundred of these
interesting volumes iu our little libra
ry* but they have been read and re
read so many times that we know
every page of them by heart. This
new volume came epportnnely and
gratefully on Christmas morning, and
that night we gathered our little
family around the fire and read it
through to them. The affected tale
entitled ‘ Improvement in Monkey
Wrenches,’ seemed to touch every
heart, and when we catne to the eli,
max of the little story about the ‘Re
versible Pie-board-, 7 there was fiot
a dry eye between the front dt?or
and the stable. During the reading
of the piteous narrative entitled
‘ Gum Washers for Carriage Axles,’
the whole family gave expression to
boisterous emotion, and the hired
girl was so much excited that she
lost her presence of mind, and went
around to her mother’s inadvertently
with six pounds of butter and a ket
tle full of flour, ami came home at
midnight intoxicated. We can never
sufficiently thank Mr. Kelly for inno
cent enjoyment thus furnished us.
The memory of that evening will lin
ger in onr minds very much longer
than that hired girl ever lingers when
she lights on a lot of substance which
she thinks will suit the constitution
of her aged parents.

The Wnoxo Bottle and Death. —
Yesterday morning Richard Ran
dolph, a colored waiter in the board
ing house at the corner of Lexington
and Charles streets, died from having
taken corrosive sublimate in mistake
for whisky. It appears that on Fri
day last lie was engaged in putting
the poison on tho bedsteads in tho
bouse, and when he lmd finished
placed the bottle containing it in an
upper closet. During the day he had
procured some whisky, which he
placed in the same closet, and at
night, before going to his home, lie
went to the closet with the intention
to lake a drink of the whisky, but
got hold of the bottle of poison,
which ho placed to his mouth and
took two swa lows of the liquid be
fore he discovered the mistake. As
soon ns possible all the usual reme
dies were administered, and he was
partially relievd, but the dose was
too much, and lie lingered until yes
terday morning, when he died.—Bal

PROSPECTUS for 1873— 6th YEAR.
THE ALDIN EL
AN ILLUSTRATED MONTHLY JOURNAL
The Aldine. while issued with all the regu
larity. has none of the temporary interest
characteristic of ordinary periodicals. It is
an elegant miscellany of pure, light, and
graceful literature; ami a collection of pic
tures, .the rarest specimens of artistic skill, in
black and white. Although each succeeding
number affords a fresh pleasure to its friends,
the real value and beauty of the Aldiny will
be most appreciated after it lias been bound
up at the close of the year. The possessor of
a complete volume cannot duplicate the quan
tity of fine paper and engravings in any other
shape or number of volumes for ten times its
cost: and then there are the Chromes besides.
. Notwithstanding the increase in the price
of subscription last Fall, when the Aldine as
sumed its present noble proportions and rep
resentative character, the edition was more,
than doubled during the past year —proving
that the American public appreciate and will
support a sincere effort in the cause of art.
’llie publishers are authorised to announce
designs from many of the most eminent art
ists of America. In addition, the Aldine will
reproduce examples of the best foreign mas
tens, selected with a view to the highest artis
tic success and greatest general interest; avoid
ing such as have become familiar, through
photographs or copies of any kind.
Every subscriber to the Aldine. who pays
for a year in advance, will receive, without
additional charge, a pair of beautiful oil eliro
mos, after J. J. Hill, the eminent English
painter. The pictures,entitled “The Village
Belle,” and “Crossing the Moor," are 14x20
inches—are printed from 25 different plates,
requiring 25 impressions and tiuts to perfect
each picture. ™ same chrome* arc sold for
SdO per pair in the art stores.
The Literary Department will continue un
der tire care of Mr. Richard Heury Stoddard,
assisted by the best wVitcrs and poets of the
day, who will strive to have the literature of
the Aldine always in keeping with its artistic,
attractions.
Terms, $5 per annum, in advance, with oil
chromos free.
The Aleliue will hereafter Is- obtainable only
by sulseription. There will Is- no reduced
or dub rate: cash for subscriptions must be
sent teV the publishers direct, t>r banded te) the
