Funeral ot Sheriff 1 Ivey.
The funeral services of Sheriff 11. G. Ivey
took plaoo at St. Luke Church, yesterday
morning, at 11 o’clock, Rev. R. J. Corley
officiating. A targe number of the friends
of the deceased were present. The Colum
bus Guards, of which company Mr. Ivey
was an honorary member, were out in full
dress uniform, commanded by Capt. Shep
herd. Messrs. William Brannon, John
Peabody, G. E, Thomas, jr., C. A. Klink, J.
J. Bradford, Clerk of Superior Court, and
Ordinary F. M. Brooks acted as pall-bear
ers. After the funeral services were over, j
the procession, headed by the Columbus j
Guards, moved to the cemetery. Hero the
body was Interred, and three rounds fired
over the grave by tho military company.
The county has lost a good officer and a
model citizen in Mr. Ivey. He was ever
attentive to the duties of his important
office and discharged them with great sat
isfaction to tho people. We trust his suc
cessor will lie as efficient and as accept
able to the people. Ills family feels the
loss of a firm support ami an affectionate
father.

Race*.
Yesterday afternoon a largo crowd col
lected at the old Fair Grounds to see a cou
ple of races. Tho llrst race was for a quar
ter of a mile, and tlioro wore two entries
W. P. O’Bryen entered n black ruuro from
William Munday’s stables, and David Cur
tis entered a black horse from Gam melt's
■stables. O’Bryen's maro seemed to bo
tho favorite with betters, and she won (lie
race by one length.
Tho next race was between O'Bryen’s
mare and a gypsoy pony, entered by Jack.
Odom, Esq. The maro was leading tho
race, and it seemed certain that she would
bo again victorious, when sho flow tho
t rack, and the pony won liy several lengths.
The time was not kept, but the running is
said to have been very good. Quito a lot
of money changed hands. Men bet on
either horse indifferently, and some offer
id to bet and give choioeof horses. There
seemed lo boa determination on the part
of all to have some fun, and wo think they
succeeded. We hope Mr. Munday and our
livery stable men will get up some more
fun of this kind, for the times are awfully
dull.

I The Origin of IlL‘ Hulll-Oitil War, from
" Loyal Ntuutl-polnl.
In a recent issue of tho New York Tri-
I buna tlioro appeared an article on “Tho
Dnttlo of the Glante." Tho star (•) at the
foot of tho production shows that it was
j furnished, and that its reckless statements
j wore not ondorsod by tho able Journal in
j which they appeared. Coplcsof the paper
j containing the communication to which
1 wc refer, have boon mailed broadcast over
the South, especially to ticket agents, one
' of whom lias cailisl our attention to the
J writer's explanation of tho origin of tho
war now raging. He says: "It is an old
“tlnio feud, originating ut a period when
"belligerency was a prevailing epidemic
“throughout the country. • * * Tho mis
“understandlng between tho companies
"originated when the National Capital was
"endangered by the rebellion, und the re
sources of the country were taxed to the
’ “utmost for its salvation. 4 * * During tins
"darkest period of the war fully nlne
. “tenths of the men and material required
"and received by the Government from
“the West and North were carried over
"tlio lines of the Pennsylvania Railroad
1 “Company to Baltimore, and from that
“city reached the Capital over tho forty
1 “miles of road owned by tho Baltimore &
“Ohio Company. • * * It may bo stated
“that, while all other railroads in the
“United States accepted the terms of tho
“Government for transportation of troops,
“viz., two cents per mile, tho Baltimore
“A Ohio always insisted upon its full local
“rates of fare between Baltimore and
| “Washington.”
We acknowledge an ardent udmlratlon
for Mr. Garrett, whleh has been greatly
enhanced by the above evidence of his
steadfast dovotion to principle and tho In
terest of ids stockholders, in tho mainte
nance of which, it seems, ho even dared
tho dictation of tho great war power, un- j
ilcr tlio very shadow of tlio old Capitol
Prison, and within tlio sound of Secretary
Stanton’s little bell. It must be tho old
blindness of fanatical hatred which leads
any sensible person to seo cause for cen
sure in the refusal of President Garrett to
haul as cheaply per mile over forty miles
as the Pennsylvania Road was willing to
do over ten times t hat distance. But ac
cepting tlio issue as ttiis partisan of the
: Pennsylvania Road makes it through his
j article in tins Tribune, we are forced to
| own that it will have great Influence in tho
South, where it is being circulated; but,
j alas! notin the interest of tho writer of it
! and his company, but on the side of the
j Baltimore & Ohio and its manly, eonserv-
I ativo, and successful management. The
next time the said writer appeals to soc
tional feeling in his bid for public patron
age and favor, let him tell about tlio negro
policemen at Washington employed by
the Pennsylvania Company in their de-1
pots. That would capture Southern husi- j
ness.

Death of U Cioo.l HI un.
Mr. Morris Kopman, an old man who
was well known in this city, died yester
day at his homo in Russell county, Ala.,
about four miles irom Columbus. Ho was
a Hungarian by birth, but has lived in
Georgia and Alabama many years. About
forty-live years ago he moved from Jones
county, Georgia, to this city, whore lie
lived for some time. He then removed
to Russell county, lie was about 75 years
of age. Tho old man was for many years
engaged in the sale of milk, vegetables,
J sausages, &0., to this market. Yesterday
Rev. C. A. Kendrick went out to tho resi
dence of deceased and performed the fu
neral services. Mr. Kopman leaves a wife,
we believe, but no children. He was an
upright man, a good citizen, and had a
name for honesty and integrity which was
of more value than riches. Indeed, it was
a common affirmation among the people,
“It’s ns true ns if old man Kopman had
Skid it.” Tho loss of such a man is to be
deeply regretted. They are the pillars on
which tho safety of the Government rests.
Would that wo had more of t hem, and
that wo did not lose them so frequently.

•Juliet t*. Romeo.
We have received tho following In reply
to a communication which appeared In
these columns yesterday morning:
Editor Times:— l was astonished to see
in your paper, this morning, an article j
signed “Romeo.” My astonishment, how-;
ever, was surpassed by my righteous in
dignation. That any man would have tho
impudence, nay, the audacity to write
such an article, I was not aware. As this
brilliant effusion was written to ridicule a
class of human beings to which I am proud
to belong, I shall demand the right to re
ply, though I am tempted to exorcise the
privilege of “God-like man,” and demand j
'•Romeo's” true name, for the purpose of
personal redress. I will restrain my pas
sion, however, and express my opinion of
i the article as a literary production. In my
judgment, it was the perfection of poverty
of thought and expression. The author
plagiarises his main ideas from Sidney
Smith's remarks about a fleshy lady; but
he destroys all tho wit they once poasosa
! od, by the very clumsy way In which ho
j lias put them. The next time “Romeo”
! wants to be funny, let him find something
| in the pages of a witty author and take a
j verbatim copy of it. It will be all the same.
I if ho will plagiarise, for Heaven’s sake, let
I him do it thoroughly,and not ruin another’s
wit by clothing it in his own awkward lan- j
guage. Having seen that the production |
has no literary merit whatever, we will
prove that it evidences exceeding bad ;
taste in tho author. It shows a* woeful j
want of appreciation of a very admirable :
quality—Corpulency. I maintain it as a
general proposition, that fat people are ■
always excellent. They an; noted for their s
good humor, and in Intellectual pursuits
are fully as famous as their loan rivals, j
Shakspeare, who read human nature like j
a printed page, fullyappreciated the glory
of fatness. He denounces Cassius because
he was a lean, hungry looking man, and
pays a glowing tribute to the noble soul
and superior appearance of corpulent
mankind. “Romeo” is a lean, lank,
stringy looking individual, who, disgusted
with his own bonyness, vents his spleen
by attempting to ridicule the more fortu
nate and more corpulent. Fatness is truly
an honor; it adds dignity to its jK>ssessor,
and never fails to receive the respect of
mankind. Leanness is the inseparable ac
companiment of insignificance, and lie j
who is afflicted with it can never receive
the deference and homage which tlio
world ever concedes to the portly propor
tions of honorable fatness.
“Romeo,” in attempting a ridicule of
corpulence, is going directly against the
fixed convictions of tho world. Ho
may hope for a glorious triumph
by convincing the world that it
is wrong and lie is right; but unless he
wields a far more potent pen than that in
dicated in his first attempt, the converts
to his heathenish faith will lx; few and far
between. We do not write this to convince
and convert this gentleman. Our side of
the cause is not in need of recruits, and if
it were, we would dislike very much to
stand in the ranks with a man capable of
"Romeo’s” baseness. Wo will let him stand
out alone as a mark for our sport and tor
monte; and though he writhe and repent
—yea, though ho cry out for mercy—wo j
will be inexorable, and will never for a
moment cease from the assault, or receive
him even as a prisoner in our ranks. Un
fortunate being! He is doomed to wander
like Cain, for this one rash act. Solitary
and alono he will suffer his punishment,
‘and receive a still heavier punishment by
forever carrying with him the despicable
opinions he has expressed in his article.
We know what is the matter with “Ro
meo.” He has been proudly rejected by a
portly lady, who has a perfect disgust for j
his leanness of laxly and soul; and, writh- j
ing under this infliction, ho endeavors to j
ridicule his superiors.
“Romeo,” our parting advice is, that if
you are ever again bold enough to make
public your erratic opinions, you will
choose some subject which will not cause
such a glaring display of your bad tastes
and laughable ignorance.

Atlanta has just suffered from a terrible
conflagration in the finest business jwrtion
of the city. The loss was very heavy, und
it took the hardest work of an efficient
tiro department to save a whole block.
Wo take the following estimate of the los
ses from the Atlanta (hnstitidUm, of Wed
nesday :
Upon enquiring we ascertained the fol
lowing as the resultant damage from the
lire on Whitehall street tHits morning:
Store owned by Blanchard A llill; in
sured for $6,000; loss over insurance,
$4,000.
Store owned by Mrs. W. P. Chisolm; in
sured for $6,000: loss over insurance $4,000.
Store owned by W. A. Ruwson; insured
for $6,000; damage $2,000.
Paul Jones, wholesale liquor store; stock
$30,000, insured $5,000; loss about $20,000.
G. \v. Jack, candy and crackers; stock
$40,000, machinery $20,000, insured for $23,-
800; loss over insurance $36,200.
George Sharpe, jr., jeweler; stock $50,-
000, insured for $14,000, damage to store be
tween SSOO and SI,OOO, damage to machine
ry for manufacturing jewelry (not insured)
$2,000.
6. K.Clothing Store; insured for $2,500,
damage about SSOO.
Smith A. Motes, daguerrean artists; in

O.L.Pease,restaurant; insured for $500;
damage not exceeding S2OO.
Messrs. Blanchard A Haskell lost all
their office furniture.
W. Mackie, painter, lost all his effects.
Mr. Van Stavorin, portrait painter, lost
all his effects. Tho amounts of the three ‘
last named wo cannot approximate.
The total loss is about $129,300, of which
$47,300 is covered by insurance.
The destruction of Mr. Jack’s establish
ment throws some fifty operatives out of
employment. Some 800 barrels of flour
were destroyed.

“’Tis distance lends enchantment to the

Some Western prophet was firmly con

don’t look at all millenlum-like just now.

Do You Want Health t
Why Will Ye Die?—Death, or what i ;
worse, is tho inevitable result of continued j
j suspension <>f the menstrual flow. It is a

j Immediate relief is the only safeguard
against constitutional ruin. In all cases
of suppression, suspension or other irretf- j
; ularitv of the “courses,” Dr. J. Brndfield s \
Female Regulator is the only sure reme- i

Bradfield tf - Cos„ Atlanta, Ga.—Dear Sirs:
' I t ike pleasure in stating that I have used
for the last twenty years the medicine you
! are putting up, known as Dr. Bradfieid's •
Female Regulator, and consider it the
. I>est combination ever gotten toget her for
! the diseases for which it is recommended, j
i have been familiar with the preparation !
both as a practitioner of medicine and in i
i domestic practice, and can honestly say i
i that I consider it a boon to suffering fe
males, and can but hope that every lady 1
in our land, who may be suffering in any i
way peculiar to their sex, may Ik* able to 1
I procure a bottle, and their sufferings may
( not only be relieved, but that they may be
restored to health and strength.
With my kindest regards.
I am, respectfully,
