The ladies ol Columbus hold u meeting to-day in the armory of the Columbus iiuafiU, to dovUe qoi* means by which a monument can be greeted to the uicmyry of the heroic dead from Columbus. Every lady that utu will lie vretunt, for the wo men of the South have ever been right. They have never learned to glvv ujAtJMr, mtaqtotet, r to soori flee rhfthi for fjaTrcy, And whenover a good work of this kind is inaugura ted, they enter into It* mieoesa with their whole ao*i|. 'The jfram (Tufy antnsimple gruti tude we owe our 4ead haw been suf fered to rest too long. Our women are the projier persons to take the matter In hand, and they have deci ded to do so.

When they meet this morning they will decide what is best tp be done, and devise means for its speedy accomplishment. No mutter what they decide upon, the Times stands pledged to endorse their notion, and to lend every aid in furthering the good work. It requires nothing to stir our people to ft sense of their duty. They ftre always keen ly ullve to it, but on acecßnt of the poverty of the South fear that the people eappot afford any pecuniary assistance, hot never doubt their wil lingness and hearty approval of any undertaking that looks to commemo rating the sacred dead of tile Soutli. These meetings and our articles are gotten up afld written only to suggest plans by which the object of our peo ple can be effected under the existing hard times, without placing beyond the teach ol all. the opportunity to donate smtidfhirti*' W ft TaW all 16te and remember. TB* Isurjl JJih-hUoii. From afl parts of the State, the press cries aut agalnst the re enactment of the laws, though nowffnd f fifth ft /After is vehement in its abuse of the yiresenf Astern. There iiro many good reason*, pro and eon, but to our minds, we are in favor of the law allowing money to bring its own value in the market. Our main reason for such tin opinion licit In' the ftftTfftl tfiat phoney is as much ntuna’ft property as anything else he owns, and what, Legislature would undertake to regujate what a farmer shall rofteU'ft for ids cotton, Ills corn, or his mules V If wo are suc eessfulin life,and have stored our suc cess away In gold and silver, instead of land anil mules, wo should have the, option ojt getting for our mo nejr as rtpieh as ft will bring In she maftkot, as well as the man who has for sale his lands and mules. Al reuejy 001. K. i’. Huge, of Ful ton, lias introduced a hill in tlie Legislature to tlx the rate of interest in this State to seven per cent., and re-onacting the Usury law. The bill will lie sufficient, but our Legislators should learn that, no matter if they pass a thousand laws against usury, it will not prevent usu ry. If they would enforce such a law and thus override all constitutional law, let them pass a law compelling capitalists to loan their money at a certain rate of interest to any one that calls for It, for if money is not proper ty, it is subject to the use of anybody who cuu take it from you. If it is property, the Legislature lias no con trol regulating its use to any greater extent than taking it from the citizen and disposing of it to suit themselves. Col. Sawyer, of the Commonwealth, puts a practical question to Sir. Hoge, as follows: “We know a mall who lias live hundred bushels of eom to sell for $1 per bushel rash, or $1.50 ou twelve mouths' time. The same man has a neighbor who lurs SSOO to lend at ISH , |M>r (lent, (wr annum. Colonel lloge's bul.it passed, will not allow the one to exact 1 iy, i>er rent , for lilh money. WUI Colonel Hoge also Interfere and pre ventthe other from (extorting 50 percent, for Ills corn ?’’ All those in favor of the usury law will find a stumbling block In their way in this query, when they go to solve the means to prevent usury, and the fairness of a law prohibiting the lending of money above a certain per cent. Admission ur Colukado.— The popu lation of Colorado, says the Nashville l/nion, according to the census of 1860, was 34,277. That of 1870 gave it 39,864. At the same rate of increase it would now have a population of something over 41,000. We hove in Tennessee two counties, Davidson and Shelby, each of which nearly doubles Colorado in population. It will be seen from this comparison what a glaring wrong the present Congress meditates in admitting this Territory os a Staten the Union for the purpose of securing two addition al Radical Senators. Wenpeli. Phii.lips. The chief point made by Wendell Phillips, in his Boston harangue, at Funeutl Hall, was that if any outrage had been committed in Louisiana, it was the effect of bad laws and not executive usurpation. Ho ohurgod, the people, if they wished to denounce properly, to brantl’Congress and not Grant. The meeting compromised matters by branding them both. The Republicans in the House are displaying great ability in dodging the civil rights bills. One is in a po sition to be passed by a majority vote. The other requires a two-thirds vote to bring it from the Sl>eaker’s table. They are making desperate lunges for the latter, knowing it canuot be reached, and fighting shy of the for mer, which it is in their power to pass any time. Strategy! IOI'K ATLANTA I.KTTF.K. Hik , i:l4C' 1 i u(i* D.oi.y rim - l Atlanta, Jan. 24, 1875. I omitted to state that the Supremo (ktolrt met Wednesday, and adjourned over until the first Monday in Feb ruary. This Court is one of the most laborious in the State—their entire time being occupied in hourlng all sorts of eases and listening to argu ments of cotHisel. To give an idee of their duties, We refer to the docket, which during last year had upon its pages five hundred cases—nearly two eases for each day and in each a de cision hod to bo given, the case in vestigated, and a written opinion de livered. This is too much for a Court composed of three men to undergo, and we think the Legislature would do wise in putting some restrictions on writs of error. As the law now stands all can appeal, no matter how frivolous their claim, and besides hampering the courts, retard the col lection of honest debts. Will not someone move in the matter? Your Representatives, Messrs. Craw ford, Grimes and Williams, are at their post, discharging their duties, and, making for themselves a name. Senator Crawford was among us last session, and distinguished himself as an able man and a good financier, he being on the Finance Committee. The other two, Messrs. Grimes and Williams, wi ll represent Muscogee. Mr. Grimes is a young man of decided ability, and though attentive to his duties, represents Columbus in socie ty. Judge 'Williams has Only spoken once or twice in the House, but his speeches have been listened to witli attention, and lie promises to be a leading man in tlie House. The great question yesterday was in regard to tlie election of State Print er. The telegraph has already in formed you that the Ihraid and Au gusta Conxtitulionalust combined, and were elected over Mr. Estell, of the Savannah Morn, and the Atlanta f.Vm- Htitation. There is great dissatisfac tion hero, about the matter; not so much to the gentlemen elected as the manner of the election. The press and the people demand that tlie Leg islature will let the printing to the lowest bidder, ami thus not ouly save thousands to the Htate, but give every body an equal showing. The election was hold subjeut to a bill introduced by Dr. Baker, of Bartow, the sub stance of which bill is to let the bid ding to the lowest bidder after duly advertising notice of tlie proposal for thirty days. We hope Dr. Baker will not abandon his bill, but that he will press it to a vote. When lie does, we feel certain the Legislature will re voke the election, and save money to the Htate by passing the bill. The members of tlie Legislature Were surprised to find on their desks, a circular from Mr. C. B. Howard, charging Gov. Smith with fraud, in the matter of the distribution of State laws. Mr. Howard presents a strong case, aud no one knows what will be the result. The friends of Gov. Smith not communicative on tlie matter, and lienee wo don’t know how the Governor will accountforthis charge. The Legislature has taken no action in the matter, but we understand they will, at an early day, appoint an investigating committee. Tho Gov ernor lias approved several bills of minor importance, while no bill that ollcits public interest has passed ei ther House. Like last session this will sit and talk, and in tile last few days of the session hurry through bills, iivaiiehu rush, that next session they will have to be repealed. Atlan ta is still knee deep In mud, and if it continues raining it will bn impossi ble to navigate. Several (ienXlts in tlie city yesterday, which created some alarm. (’uiigl'esstnan ShiflS is quite ill at liie itltnball House. Occasional. - Michigan's new Senator, who will succeed Chandler on t he 4th of March, is Isaac H. Christ ianey, for seventeen years past one of the Judges of tho State Supreme Court, and part of the time Chief Justice. He lias been elected to this position twice by the unanimous vote of both parties. In polities, he was originally a Demo crat, but has been a Freesoiler and then Republican. Ho is sixty-three years old, and a resident of Lansing. Ho is understood to be in favor of hard money and a revenue tariff, and is conservative on constitutional questions. He is a man of marked ability. The Atlanta Herahl says that Col. Livingston, of Newton, proposes to introduce a bill which shall provide, that when a man is sued and judg ment is obtaincil against him in a lower court, from which judgment lie desires to appeal, ho shall not be nl lowed to do so until he has given the plaintiff an indemnifying bond for full amount in suit. This U only omj feature of Mr. Livingston's law, the whole purport of which is to ren der eusy and certain the collection of money that lias been loaned. This, Mr. Livingston believes, is the best way to reduce the rate of interest. ♦ • Recognition or Cpba.—The agents of the Cuban Republic now in this country, are making strenuous efforts to procure the recognition of that Republic by the United States. A pamphlet is prepared for circulation among the members of Congress, in which it is shown that the Republi can army in Cuba amounts to seven teen thousand, foot and horse. A list of successes in the field during the past year is given to show the prowess of the insurgents, and while it is urged that they have partly es tablished their rights to recognition as belligerents, it is asserted that Spain is as impotent to put an end to the war now as she was six years ago. —Crows in Paris and the suburbs aud peojde shooting at them from the streets and windows! Fancy that for the capital of the world. It must bo hard fare out in the country when Maltre Corbenu goes to the city for his rations. Tlie Association of Hurt Ivin* Kx-C'on federates. At u full mooting of the Executive ! Committee of the Survivors’ Associa tion of ex-Confedorate Soldiers, held | in Atlanta Saturday, Gen. Lawton, Col. Hardeman, Col. L. .1. Glenn, Col. J D. Waddell, Col. H. I>. Capers, Capt. C. C. Kibboc and Capt. John Milledge, secretary, being present, Instructions were given to tlie secre tary to proceed at as early a day as possible to publish an address, di rected to the ox-Confederate soldiers in Georgia, requesting that in each county a roll should be made of all who desir eto join the association, by registering their names and paying tlie initiation feeof twenty-five cents; and that the roils be forwarded on or before tho Ist of June, 1875, to the secretary at Atlanta, so tiiat a con solidated roll might lie mado up by the time of tlie meeting of tlie asso ciation at Maeou during tlie holding of tlie next State Fair. It is hoped that a sufficient amount will ire real ized from this source by the time of the meeting of the next State Fair to establish a home for the disabled and indigent of that class. The small amount of the sum required enables all to unite themselves with the asso ciation, and thus not only perpetuate the memory of the cause for which they struggled, but establish a home of refuge for those whom misfortune has stricken. • Wendell Phillies writes a long letter to the Boston Aih'rrtwt pro testing against the passage of any “civil rights” bill that does not resist, upon mixed schools. He says the Southern whites will not destroy their common school systems if such a bill Is passed, culls their remonstrances “bullying bluster,” and gives as a ! reason why they can’t do it, t hat they haven’t the power. “Six or seven thousand negro voters are not easily thwarted,” he adds. All Of which proves that Wendell is still the same old ass he always was. Let him and his pass sueh a hill, and see whether: or not we have the power. - • The commission of engineers on j the alluvial basin of tlie Mississippi! have sent their report to the Presi- 1 dent. They recommend a govern-, moat grant for tire purpose of reclaim- 1 ing these alluvial lands, and suggest the immediate appropriation of one] and a half millions for Louisiana, and j a half million each for Arkansas and | Mississippi, to close existing breaks j ami crevasses. It is a cause of general eongral illa tion at the Soutli, that Sinek (’handler, of Michigan, lias been defeated for the United States Senate. The good people of that State have wisely eon-1 eluded to keep Zaek at home, and thus rid tlie respectable portion of the Senate of a most infamous slan derer of Southern people, and South ern institutions. His successor, Judge Cliristianey, though a Republican, is of liberal ideas, and our exchanges say conservative in his views. All are certain that tlie change Is for the better, for there could have been no worse, not even Butler mid Sheridan. 1 state Hoaril ol Ifrnltli. We find the following article in the Atlanta Constitution on the bill re cently introduced in the House by Dr. Thomas, of Chatham. It should certainly be passed: Dr. Thomas’ bill, which is pending in the House, provides for the ap pointment by the Governor of eight physicians as Sanitary Commission ers, who, with the Comptroller Gen eral, Attorney General and State Ge ologist, shall constitute the Hoard of Health of the State of Georgia. This boanl shall appoint a Secretary, who shall be a physician, and shall receive a stated salary. The commissioners shall serve eight years, and are to re ceive no salary, but the actual ex penses i>f any member, while engaged in the duties of tlie board, are to be paid. The board shall nave cogni zance ot't he interests of health and life in the State, and shall investigate the causes of disease, and especially of epidemics, the sources of mortali ty, and the effects of localities and employments upon the public health. It shall give information of any threatened epidemic to the health officers ot the ports within the State. The board is also given the supervi sion of the registration of all births, marriages and deaths. The secretary of tho board shall be the superinten dent of registration of vital statistics, and the Comptroller General shall provide for the clerical duties and safe keeping of this part of the work. On the first Monday in December of each year the board is to make a report to the Governor of the vital statistics, anti sanitary condition and prospects of the State, together with such information anu recommenda tions as it may deem proper anti use ful. Other sections of the bill pro vide for the gathering of sanitary in formation through the local health officers and managers of various pub lic institutions. Tlie subjects of san itary drainage, and of ventilation ot public buildings, are also within the scope of the powers of the board. The bill contains stringent provis ions to compel physicians, coroners ami ordinaries to report all vital sta tistics that can bo gathered in the course of their respective duties, to the board. We need not urge at this lute tlav the value of vital statistics, either for sanitary or economical pur poses; nor need we urge the useful ness of a supervising board of health composed of the best, medical and ex ecutive talent of the State. The mer its of tlie proposed law must be ap parent to every reflecting mind. To neglect the gathering of the custo mary vital statistics argues a degree of unhealthfulness that alarms the prudent who are looking this way for homes. The details of Dr. Thomas’ bill may not be perfect; but in tlie main we believe it well adapted to tlie wants and necessities of tlie State. We hope it will have a careful hear ing, and will eventually find a (dace in the statute books. An intelligent supervision of the public health as provided by this pill must surely be beneficial.
