Another Elopement,
On yostorday morning a pleasant little
affair took place in tho office of Justice
McNeill. Mr. Shepherd Woods and Miss
Martha It. Jackson were quietly united in
the holy bands of matrimony. There was
none of the tinsel or show about tin 1 af
fair, but it seemed to lo just as nice as
other transactions of tho same kind, about
which a great deal of fuss is made. The
parties, however, seemed to la? in a great
hurry. Tho mud which was seen on pails
of their apparel clearly showed that they
had come behind a flying steed. They
were at the Ordinary’s office by six o’clock,
and remained there until about nine, when
they went up to see Justice McNeill and
were made happy. They then returned to
their home*, near Crawford, Ala.

AIMM.AI. TO THKHTI/A'.NH OP U PN
NI.I.I. C Ot ATY, A I.A.
In my first communication I addressed
our County Commissioners upon the sub
ject of roads and bridges, asking an imme
diate call of the Board together, and the
necessity of prompt action. In my second
article f propose to the Apportioned and
Overseers of Russell county to make full
reports of the condition of roads and
bridges in their beats, that the Commis
sioners might bo the bettor able to com
prehend tho situation and give the ndief
our citizens seek. I now call upon the peo
ple (white and colored of the county) to ask
the Apportioned and Overseers in their
respective beats to consult together, and
resolve at once to begin tho repairs on the
bridges and working of tho roads. Not a
day lias passed since January that some
! planter lias not had his wagons or pleasure
j carriage broken or badly injured, and
j their teams strained to tho utmost in haul
j ingup and down the Mills, and through
tho mud holes ol’ Russell county. You are
sleeping over your true interest, and the
! injury done to your stock, to sav nothing
; of tho inconvenience and vexation arising
i from the bad condition the roads ami
! bridges in our county,
j A “penny wise and pound foolish” pol
i ley, in any public interest, has always
j i>eon attended with great loss to tho poo
! pie, and is a reflection upon their public
spirit. We must get out of the old rut we
have boon traveling, if anything good or
great is to bo accomplished. May not the
old motto '“what is everybody's busi
ness is nobody's business,” 1h applicable
to many of us. And if we do not Improve
the present opportunity or putting our
roads and bridges in good condition be
fore the planting season begins, it will not
be done this year. After the crop is plant
ed, you will have to work it until laid by.
and then thoeottonand garnering of grain
will occupy and engage your attention the
j year out. It is bad policy to put off for the
• future, that which is necessary to bo done
now. You have timbor sufficient bn your
j lands, and to spare, to build and repair all
I the bridges, and build such as are needed,
| without contracting with saw mills, and
j hauling for miles off, when you have the
material right at tho spot.
What this county needs most to build
up its waste places, its fallen fortune, its
planting interest, ancl to keep in good or-
I der and repair all its roads and bridges, is
| labor , coupled with a proper public spirit,
j Our public roads and bridges are a reilec
11ton upon us as a people, and should stil
us to action, until complaint is ceased to
bo' made. I hope to see this good work
begun at once; and let Commissioners, Ap
portioned, Overseers, and the people all
put their shoulders together, and with
hand and heart redeem old Russell from
her lethargy in public spirit and enter
prise.
What say you, gentlemen? Will you be
stir yourselves in this matter the present
week? Do, if you please, and receive there
for tho plaudit of “well done” welling up
from the hearts >f those who placed you
in power. Respectfully.

A N r.OKO ON (im RIGHTS.
Mr. Editor Turn s: Pleat© allow mo apace
in your paper to express my opinion on
tho Civil Righto bill. 1 know, Mr. Editor,
that the Civil Righto bill will do theeol
oml people of the tifouth more harm than
any bill that was over passed by the Con
gress 4 >f tMe United States. Why do I say
so? Don’t the bill make me equal with
the white people ? Yes, indeed, it does.
How, then, is It going to do the colored
people bo much harm ? Just watch, iuy
frtendiyiind I will show you. To whom do
the lands of the South belong? Who is it
that gives the colored man credit when he
goes to the store without any money ?
Who is It that employs the colored man
and pays him his wages ? Who is it that
goes to tho colored mail’s wife and chil
dren and gives them physic, and waits
from one twelve months to the other for
ills pay V Who is it that gives the coloml
people aid in building all their public
houses of worship ? Who is it that defends
tho colored man at the bar of the Court i
Who is it that gives aid to the poor and
afflicted ? Are not all of these blessings
from tho white people of the South ? Are
any of them from those men in the Con
gress who were so hot to pass the Civil
Rights bill? No; they are not. Now,
while we are a fr<**l people, and can think
and act as we please, and write what we
please, let us remember that the white
people can withhold all of the above favors
from us. Now, uiy friends, will not that
j be an injury to the colored people ? Bponk :
, the right-tiling, and you Will say as I say.
Here is the right point to talk about civil
rights. What have wo, the colored people,
got, to want to associate with the white
people ? Have we an education ? have we
a dress lit to go in, to dine at the white
man’s table? Remember that we area
nation to ourselves. God made us as well
as He made tho white man, but Ho did not
make us both to live under one shelter;
and why should we wish for any more
than God intended for us to have? Let
us remain what we are a freed people]
and a nation to ourselves. Let us have j
our own public places—our barber shops,
our hotels, our bar rooms. Lotus build
up our own people, i must again confess
that we arc? not a people to assist one an
other as the whites do; we are a people j
to crush one another; we do ail we can to i
ruin one another; and our poor and affile- i
tod, why, bless you, all the help they gst
is from the white class. That is one grand
! injury the Civil Righto bill has already
done. The whitos are not going to help
our poor and afflicted. Now, here am I
myself. lam an afflicted man have been
so for the last live years. 1 have a brother
we are the sons of the same man and
woman—and yet he lias never given me a
live cents since I have beea’affliated. I
mention this to prove that we are a people
tliat don’t care for one another. There
fore, when we get tin* white* to that point
i where they won’t give us their aid, what
then will we do ? Sirs, we will boa suffor
i ing class of people.
! Then, my colored friends, my advice is
j tills: Let us not force ourselves into the
company of the white class. L<*t us go on
as we have Ik>**ii doing. Let us uni to to
gether, and let us keep tho good will of
our white friends. By <_> doing the South
will become the bloom of the United States;
and by so doing, we can live in this coun
try a happy people.
Let love in all our actions rule,
And all our ways be mild;
i Then God will smile upon us all,
j And wo will never fall.

Jordan's Joyous Julep.
A SjM'cilic for Neuralidfl.
I HAVE been nayiiur a good dial through th* ,
1 {opera of latt' extolling JORDAN’S JOYOUS ;
JIILEFas a moat wonderful NEURALGIA CURE; :
but for fear you may exclaim as Slmk&peare i
when be said “You cram these word* into mint
ear iigainst the rtoraach of my sense," I now sub
mit to you What persons say who have tried my I
Neuralgia Julep, with the must complete and :
satisfactory result:
Con;mju's, January 10, 1875. J
Mr.Jordan: —l takt* great pleasure in recom
! mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, j
has produced a must wonderful relief in one oj j
' the severest attacks of 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- i
ceac. lean with much confidence hope for a per- ;
i man;it cure. It is only two days since we began j
i the use of it. and it is apparently of permanent f
benefit. Yours, with resp tt.

Dear Sir—Having learned through my friend j
R. A. Bacon of your “J. J. J." pn-paration lor re- i
| lief ol neuralgia, and tested it with perfect suc
j cess in my own family, in the worst ease, too. 1
, that ever came uneb-r my observation, 1 now I
enclose fifty cents for a second bottle, as I con
sider it too valuable a medicine to be without,
i though 1 have no immediat' use for it.
Very truly yours

I)r. J. L. Jordan: Dear Sir—Your Joyous Julep
j for Neuralgia has been tried in my family, and
! with the most happy result,and 1 find in it all you
! claim l'or its virtue. And I unhesitatingly r. -
I commend it to all who are suffering from Neural
; gia as something a little remarkable iu its cura
j tive power. J. D. WORTHY.

Itr. J. J*. Jordan —Your medicine, Joyous
Julep, is without an equal for Neuralgia. Having
: been a great suii. rcr from the pain, and having
tried tho prescriptions ol many physicians, yet
i all proved ol no effect until I tried four doses
| of your Julep, when I was immediately relieved,
! and hove not Imeu troubled since.
