A BiumU County Traveler.
I Everybody knows Capt Bill H —, >f
! Russell county, Ala.; oither cx-Mayor of
i Seale, or an aspirant for the position, we
forgot exactly which. The boys like to
have him about, an<l the children rush for
him whenever he heaves in sight. A few
days ago the Captain hftd business In At
lanUi, and not knowing that tie biggest
feature of the concern is its charge of $1
per day, he went to the Kimball House.
The Hrst man he met in tho rotunda was
our handsome Representative, with our
equally as good-looking friend, Col. Hill
B . Asa matter of variety, a propo
sition was made to take a drink, which
was unanimously accepted, and the party
moved towards and entered the elevator,
save tin? Colonel, who was called off by a
friend. Being missed, the Representative i
went after him, leaving the Captain and
the attendant In the elevator. Capt. Bill,
being in a hurry, said to tie* Attendant
that he would take Ids drink and leave;
but, just then, the rest of the party enter
ed, the door was closed, ami before the
Captain understood that the nice little ,
apartment was not a bar, the thing com
menced to go up—or, as the startled
passenger expressed it, the hotel l>egan to
go down! They say it was fun to see his
bewilderment.

In his last report to the City Council,
Chief Engineer Williams {mid a high trib
ute to the Washington Fir** Company, 1
which is composed of some of our best col-;
ored citizens. There can be no doubt that
this company has rendered the city much
valuable aid. The members are noted for
their promptness at fires and the great
zeal with which they work. Such organi
zations deserve the commendation and us
! slstanco of all our citizens. The company
does not receive any appropriation from
the council, and it is compelled to meet all
its expenses the liest way it can. It is or
ganized on a kind of mutual aid principle,
and whenever any member dies he is sure
to receive a decent burial at the hands of
his former comrades. The expenses of the
company are necessarily heavy. To help
defray thorn, it has been determined to
have a ball on next Tuesday night.
We trust that the {>eople will not hesitate
to aid this deserving company in raising a
considerable amount. A committee will
wait on the merchants and others and so
licit contributions. They are entitled to
encouragement and should receive it.

Yesterday a possessory warrant ease

to obtain possession of a horse which was I
1 held by his son, J*rry Grim**s. The father j
I contended that he had only loaned the;
I horse to his son to make a crop with last

l the horse from his father, and had the
j right of possession to him. The warrant
was dismissed by order of the court. We

We ha<l hoped that the active exertions
j of our police force in capturing thieves for
• the past few days, would warn them that
; they had lictier cease doing evil and learn
to do well. This warning seemed to have
had very little effect, and the rascals con
tinue their depredations. We would like
to see about one dozen of those fellows
! caught and submitted to the tender rner
-1 cies of Judge Pou. Until a severe example
j is inode of some of those pests, their work
will be apt to continue.
About a week ago, Mrs. Barnett’s board

room and pantry windows.
Last night an entry was again effected.
One of the panes of glass was cut out and
tin* window rais**d. The thieves did more ;
work t his time than they did before. They
carried off a large supply of flour, meal,
| Ac., and made a general havoc among the
provisions. The manner in which tie 1
j house was entered, shows that someb'Miy

■of its construction and the manner in

presented for his disposal.
Three young men were called up and
charged with engaging in a little pistol
practice, a few nights ago, at a place of
bad reputation. It was clearly proven
that about eight shots were fired, and that
the affair came near resulting in some
thing very serious. However, as it ap
peared that the accused were not th** prime
movers in the mischief, but were only
implicated, they were dismissed. Th** true
offenders are known, and will soon be
brought up to receive an appropriate re

The affair should not be passed by quietly,
for, viewed in any light, it was an outrage
to respectable society.

Neuralgia Julep, with the moat complete and
satisfactory result:
Columucr, January 16. 1875. !
Mr..Jordan:— I take great pleasure- in recoin- j
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia. It ;
has produced a most wonderful relief iu one of
the severest attacks ol neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. She has been treated for it by
three skillful physicians, with very little benefit,
and used all the usual remedies with little sue- ,
cess. I eanAvith much confidence hope for a per- :
maneut cure. It 1b only two days since* we began
the use of it. and it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yours, with respect,
MRS. L. I. NORMAN.
I’KTKlisiiL'BO, Va., Jan. 15, 1875.
Jnn. L. Jordan, Esq., Columbus, Ga.:
Dear Sir -Having learned through my friend
R. A. Bacon of your “J. J. J.” preparation for re
lief of neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc
cess in my own family, iu the worst case. too.
that ever came under my observation. I now
enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, a- I con
sider it too valuable a medicine to lx* witbout,
though I have no immediate use for it.
Very truly yours
JAMES T TOSH.
COLI’MBCS, GA., Nov. g. 1H74.
Dr. J. L. Jordan Dear Kir—Your Joyous Julep
for Neuralgia has bceu tried iu my latnily. and
with the most happy result and I find iu it all you
claim f**r its virtue. And I unhesitatingly re
commend it t" all who arc suffering from Neural
gia as something a little remarkable in its cura
tive power. J. D. WORTHY.
Columbus, Ga., Dec. 18, 1874.
Dr. J. L. Jordan —Your medicine. Joyous
Juh-p. is without an equal tor NYuralg <*. Having
been a groat sufferer front the paiu. and haviug
tried tin* prescriptions of many physicians, yet
all proved of a** effect until 1 tried four doses
of your Julep, when I was immediately relieved,
and have not been troubl. .1 since.

Dr. J. J,. Jordan —Please .*nd me another bot
tle of your Joyous Julep for a friend. J have
tc-v -r found anything equal to it lor Neuralgia.
Two doses cured me almor-t instantly, and lean
safely recommend it to do what you say.
Very respectfully, A:*•..

Dr. J. L. Jordan, Columbus, Ga.:
Dear Dir—lt affords me pleasure to add my tes
timony to the efficacy of your “Jordan's Joyous
Julep," iu giving instant relief in Neuralgia: and
to all appearance, as effective as instantaneous.
J was effected daily with Neuralgia, and since
taking a few teaspoon fills of your relief, two or
more weeks have elapsed, ami there are no indi
cations of return. I hope that the human fam
ily will raeeivc a benefit commensurate with the
importance of your discovery, and that your
pecuniary reward will be equal to its well de
served merits. Yours, respectfully,
MRS. L. DOZIER
