It is pleasant to read the impressions
our city makes upon a stranger, especi
ally when it is good. Edward King in
Scribner's Monthly Magazine, is wri
ting articles about **The Great South.”
The August number, contains “Jour-
neys in Georgia and Alabama.” The
sketeh contains a fine illustration of the
Eagle aud Pheuix mills. He thus speaks
of Columbus:
Columbus, on the border of Alabama,
separated from that State by the Chatta
hoochee river, which gives it an outlet to
the Gulf, through Florida, is a lovely,
thriving town, which one day must rival
Lowell or Manchester, beoause its water
powor is excoplion&bly fine. The river,
soino distance ubove the city, flows
through u rugged and beautiful ravine,
where the best building stone is to be had.
It is said by competent authorities that
along the stream, within two miles of the
city, there are sixty sites, eaoh large
enough for the establishment of a spa
cious factory.
Columbus impressed me more favorably
than any other manufacturing town I had
seen in the far South. It lies right in the
oentro of tbe ootton belt, is pierced by
six important railways, reoeives about
130,000 cotton bales yearly, aud in the
mills of the Columbus Manufacturing and
Eagle & Pheuix companies employs hund
reds of women and children. Tbe streets
are wide and cheery, the shops and stores
quite fine, the residences pretty ; the lit
tle town of Girard, across the river, built
by the mill proprietors as a home for their
operatives, is charming ; there is au as
pect of life, and energy, and content in
the place strongly contrasted with the
dead and stagnant towns of which I had
seen so much. True, there were hosts of
idle negroes roosting in the shady plaoeB
about the squares, and under the portioos
—bat they are found everywhere in the
South. The managers of the ootton mills
will not employ them in their establish
ments. When I asked one of the Super
intendents, why not ? he smiled quaintly
and said : “Put a negro in one of those
rooms with a hundred looms, and the
noise would put him to sleep.”
To which, never having seen tbe “man
and brother” uuder the specified circum
stances, I could of course make no an
swer. Columbus has direct water com
munication with Texas—tbe great wool
market of the future—and could supply
woolen mills very readily aud cheaply.
The Columbus manufacturers claim that
a bale of cottou can be manufactured $22
cheaper there than in or near Boston, and
that their labor is thirty per cont. obeaper,
while they arc novae subject to obstruc
tions from ice. The operatives is
the mills are evidently saving money,
and their houses and gardens were
models of neatness aud comfort.
After riding all day through regions
where the log oabiu was ofteuer seen than
tbe frame house, aud whore the forests
still hold possession of nine-tenths of the
laud, it was refreshing to come upon a
town of such energy, activity and pros*
peots as Columbus.
The cotton factories, largo iron foun
dries, aud the railway activity of Maoou
give it oven u more sprightly appearance
than Columbus; but the latter has 15,000
population, while Macon has but 10,000.
* * * * At Grauiteville, South Caro
lina, two or throe miles beyond the Savan
nah river, extensive mills have also boon
erected, and eight million yards of cotton
are annually made there. Tho manufac
turing village is as tidy and thrifty as auy
in the North, and there is none in the
South which excels it in general aspect
and comfort, unless it be that of the
Eagle and Phenix Company at Columbus,
Ga.

—It may not bo generally known that

A High Priced Paper.
We have lost confidence iu the disin-
genuonspess and honesty of the model
news boy, and for this reason : We arrived
in Maeon at a very early hour Sunday
morning last. While sitting with a friend,
in front of the Brown House, awaiting
one of those refreshing and excellent,
breakfasts they give you there, a news
boy whined in with “moroin’ paper, sir ?”
He was not a rolieking, bold fellow, with
a dash and a yoll, but like Joey BabBtock
was “sly, devilish sly.” He had Morning
Stars for sale—price, five ceuta. We
took one and handed that honest yoath a
half dollar to change. Ho hadn’t auy
small notes, but would stop around the
oorner and bring us the change. Iu the
■implioity of our trust we let him go. He
never came baok. We loft on a 9 a. m.
train, some four hours after, but he never
It takes him longer to change a
•mall sum than any one we tmifc known
except the fellers that change fivtm yos*
pocket to theirs. Wonder if be has
changed it yet. Can tho Morning Star busi
ness man tell ?” Win. Bassmore was his
name. The Star is an excellent paper,
but hardiy worth the fifty cents that hon
est Bassmore took.
Ordinary Appleby Picked uj> Prank in
the Streets of Columbus.
One T. J. Appleby is the Radioal Ordi
nary of Russell oounty, Alabama, with
headquarters at Seale, and is a candidate
for re-eleotion, and depends on colored
votes to seoure the place. He often
comes to Oolumbos. On Friday night a
negro boy brought information to polioe-
men that a white man was lying drunk in
the street west of the Court House and
near Thomas. An officer and a citizen
proceeded to the spot and there found Or
dinary Appleby, lying fast asleep ou the
ground, just away from the side-walk and
under a tree. The officer lit a match and
the Judge rolled over and opened his eyes.
“How are you Judge ?” was the salutation
of the officer. “Whoso you?” incoke
rently asked the Ordinary. “I’m a po-
liceman.” “Then you go and pleece
somewhere else and letntuo lone.” The
offloer had compassion, and with assis
tance raised the whisky form and guided
his tottering steps to the Rankin House.
The officer says he crawled on his all-fours
up stairs.
This is the man whom the Radicals and
negroes have elevated by their votes to the
most responsible position in their county.
Will they do it again ? Will not their
self-respect forbid it ? Every fact stated
can be proven by the best of evidence.
It is said “Squire Harris,” the present
State Senator, will run against him.
Tho Front Street Fusileers.
The boys on Front street have organ
ized a military company. At first it was
a misoegenated affair, but the whites have
expelled all tbe colored members except a
little drummer, who raises thunder on a
toy instrument. They had a flag presen
tation the other day. The two banners
were of white cotton, handkerchief size,
three blue horizontal stripes, and four
blue stars in eaoh corner. They have tar
get praotioes. Each fusileer aims with a
stick and throws at the target with a rook,
when all go and measure distance. They
drill by the tactics of the captain until
they commence fighting, when each sails
in on his own hook.

curative agent. When medical falsehood
is bold, unblushing, unpuuished, aud tri
umphant, medioal truth requires higher
testimonials. As different invalids credit
diff erent classes of testimony, we propose
to secure their credence by publishing
various kinds of testimony which operate
on the human mind to produce convic
tion. As it is the business of physicians
to Htudy disoases and their remedies,
theirs is the highest testimony in favor of
any ourat.vo agent.
The iutrodnotion of the Gettysburg
Katalysine water as a commercial drug,
rendered national those medical experi
ments with its waters whioh had previous
ly been looal, or oonfiued to the resident
invalids in the vicinity of the spring.
Many eminent medioal writers and prac
ticing physicians watched with deep in-
torest the progress of these medioal ex-
periments, fraught with suoh inoaloulable
interest to humanity and to medioal sci
ence. The result of their observations
they communicated to the medioal jour
nals.
It would too greatly prolong this com
munication to make quotations from all
the medical journals aud medioal writers
who have commented upon tho medioal
experiments with this water. We will,
therefore, only make quotations from one
of the medioal journals and from one of
tbe medical writers, who is reoognized ss
an authority on mineral waters :
Testimony or Medical Journals.
The New York Medical Uecard, iu two
editorial articles, entitled “Our Recently
Discovered Mineral Waters,” and “The
Gettysburg Katalysine Water,” reviews
with much ability the practical experi
ments with the latter. It remarks :
“Our experience in the use of this val
uable water confirms the conclusions
stated by Dr. Johu Bell, of Philadelphia,
that it is a very useful remedy in ohronio
disorders of the digestive organs, and tbe
secondary derangements, such as gout,
rheumatism, hepatic aud rhenal affections,
skin diseases, Ao., consequent thereon.
We have good reason also to believe from
what wo have seen and experienced, that
it will by long use remove nodosities of
the joints of a gouty nature.
Wo huve also seen cases of albuminuria
much relieved by it, as well as the irrita
ble bladder of old age and oaloulus disor
ders of tho lithio acid diathesis. * *
We have been incredulous in regard to
this water having any suoh power as rep
resented by Drs. John Bell, 8. H. Hall,
and other medical writers, of dissolving
the uratts or ohalk formations in the
body, or on limbs and joints—a power
uuknown to any other mineral water in
tho United States, so far as wo are in
formed. * * From experiments made
ou our own person as well as others, we
can state that the Gettysburg Water is a
regulator of all the secretions and excre
tions ; under its influence the kidneys and
liver, the glauds of the intestinal canal
and tho skin all perform their normal
functions; the bowels, if constipated,
became regular; the skin, if dry, becomes
moist; the torpid liver is excited to
healthy action, and the kidueys perform
tbeir functions with perfect regularity.
There is a total absence of any disagreea
ble sensations whatever; the vis medica-
tnx seems roused to increased activity,
and all morbid causes of bodily, or even
mental disorder, scorn rapidly to pass
away. The result is : Increased appetite
and digestion, a freer circulation,
stronger pulse, a calmer mind, a more
tranquil sleep, a clearer complexion, and
an increasing nervous and muscular
power. * * Where gouty or rheumatic
persons are taking the water, we find an
extraordinary quantity of urio acid accre
ted or deposited from the urine; the
sweat no louger contains this principle in
excess, as ii generally does iu gouty sub
jects; and, with proper nttentiou to regi
men and diet, the health rapidly im
proves, distorted limbs become straight-
trlamphs. Hera where so many human being!
K rlshed and where the star of tho new born
infederaey ooramenced to dosoeml from tho
meridian, soon to set in darkness and blood,
the late followers of the lost cause and tho tri
umphant Federate meet In amity, minallng
their pleasures and seeking physical health and
Ilfs irom the same fountain.

Medical Author**
Doctor Bell, the author of a standard
medical work entitled “The Mineral
Springs of the United States and Canada,
has prepared a paper on the Gettysburg
Katalyhine Springs, from which
quote:
“Tho Gettysburg Water has produced
signally curative and restorative effeots
in different forms of Dyspepsia, Sickness
of the Stomach, Heartburn, Waterbrasb,
Acute Neuralgic Pains, Loss of Appetite,
Chronic Diarrhoea, Torpid Livor, Gout,
Chronic Hhematism, Nodosities of tho
Joints, Approaching aud Actual Paralysis,
Diabetes, Kidney Disease, Gravel, Ohron
io Dyspepsia, Abdominal Dropsy, Ep<
ilopsy, Ac., Ac., Ac.”
The New Power In Medicine.
Ho also remarks of its solvent effects
upon those forms of calculus known as
the chalk-stones, lumps or nodosities of
rheumatism and gout:
“Were we to suppose these swellings to
be ligamentous, or cartilaginous, with
bony matter deposited, our surprise at
their disappearance would be none tho
less. Recourse to all known therapeuti
cal agents aud modes of treatment,
are ineffectual beyond sometimes
reduction of tho size of the
nodes of a gouty or rheumatic na
ture by absorption of a part of the outer
and investing structure. But the entire
removal of tbe inorganic body, without
surgical intervention, has not, wo believe,
hitherto been brought about by either in
ternal remedies or external applications,
or by both uuited. In tbe case now un
der notioe, we oannot believe that tbe ab
sorbents would be equal to the task of
sucking up, as it were, the deposited inor-
ganie matter, unless this deposit has been
subjected to the solvent action of the
blood brought to the part by tbe delioate
capillaries. Whence oomea this solvent
property ?”
