Ciucaoo is swamped financially.
The delinquent tax-list foots up SG,-
750,000, and tho city is borrowing
money to meet tho deficits in its
treasury by reason of the shortcom
ings of tax-payers. But worse than
that, it Is acknowledged that if all the
delinquent taxes wore collected they
would not be sufficient to pay the out
standing liabilities of the city not
provided for in this funded debt.
Not satisfied with the old Demo
cratic stylo of governing the District
of Columbia, tho Republicans gave it
a Territorial form. In his message
suggesting its failure President Grant
modestly estimated the cost of the
experiment at $14,000,000. Already
tho audited debt runs over $20,000,-
000, with unknown claims still out
standing. This enormous sum was
made away with by Boss Shepherd
in less than three years. In the
meantime both Grant and Shepherd
have become wealthy.
One of tho most striking proofs of
tho demoralization in Northern in
dustries is the effects of the coal
strike in tho anthracite regions of
Pennsylvania. There is a total of
119 furnace stacks in three valleys
that have suspended operations.
More than half the furnace men
connected with those great iron man
ufactories are idle, and tho furnaces
closed on account of the coal strikes.
Tho large cities are already on
short nllowanco. The evil effects of
Radical legislation is fast extending
to the North. Tho Democratic i>nrty
is tho only ark of safety.
The Washington Chronicle says:
“Already tho House of Representa
tives has been allowed, through in

the Opposition, and in a few months
hence we shall see some such specta
cle as Wood or Randall for its Speak
er, Kerr as Chairman of Ways and
Means, Cox at the head of tho Com
mittee on Foreign Affairs, nnd tho
subordinate positions in the House
filled by rebel Generals.”
And tho country breathes easier for
it. In a few months, then, will we
witness the olden courtesy, the scho
larly eloquence, tho genuine states
manship that looks beyond sectional
hate to tho good of the whole coun
try. "We congratulate the country
upon this flattering prospect, so
truthfully depioted by the Chronicle
in the above sentences.
wroßTAxrr facts.
The success of the Times is unpre
cedented in the history of journalism
In Columbus. No other paper has
risen so rapidly in public favor as it
has. As proof of this wo state that
the circulation of the Times is greater
at four months of its existence, than
the Enquirer attained in a prosperous
career of over forty years; and is now
nearly as large as tho circulation of
the Sun, which was the most popular
paper published in tills city at tho
time of its consolidation with the
Enquirer. Tho circulation of tho
Times, too, is rapidly Increasing. It
is emphatically tho People’s paper.
Wo will state in this connection
that our advertising rates arc lower
than those of any paper in this city
since the war, and a great deal lower
than tho rates maintained for the
last two years. The attention of mer
chants and business men of the com
munity is called to this fact. It is
not our purpose to advance our rates,
as some suppose, but to keep them at
what they arc in order to induce a
larger amount of advertising in tho
Times ; and we think, too, that it will
be to the interest of our business men
to sustain us.
Wo do not intend to discriminate
against our own citizens in our adver
tising rates, in favor of foreign ad
vertisers, as has formerly been the
custom; und will not admit foreign
advertisements into this paper at less
than our published rates. To enable
us to carry out our purpose in this
matter, it is essential that our busi
ness men should sustain and aid us.
It is the contract advertisers—those
who advertise by tho quarter, or six
or twelve months-who reap the
greatest benefits from our cheap
rates; and the larger the advertise
ment the cheaper the ratio.
There has been no hotter advertis
ing medium presented to the peoplo
of Columbus than the Times offers,
and we hope they will sharo our
opinion that it is their interest to
sustain and encourage us, that we
may enlarge and extend our efforts
to build up the prostrate interests of
our native section. We intend to do
our part, while our motto shall be,
"Each one for all and all for each
one.”

This reminds us of a little experi

Entering a third-class car very early
one morning we found ourselves in
the company of a group of luborers

formed that we were an American one
of them asked us what sort of a plant

plied that it was a plant that some
times had two ears on it, and, in rare
instances, there were as many as four
ears on a plant. Our astonished au
ditor, with a bewildering look, turned
to his companion and said: “Tim,
this gintleman says it takes two years
and sometimes four for corn to grow!
That country won’t do; wo are better
off here.” Now, we are much more
excused than that Irishman was, if in

FUN IN PROSPECT—“THE RED SNAPPER
CLUB.”
Apalachicola, Fla., May 10.
Hero we are at Apalachicola Bay,
after a pleasant run of two and a half
days. Wo left Columbus ut elovcu
o’clock a. m., Saturday, May tho Bth,
on the good steamer Geo. W. Wylly.
We havo a pleasant party, consisting
of four,laboring under theeuphonious
names of Bullethead Pete, Moonshine
Bill, Nimble Wimble, and Billy Bow
legs—each intent upon seeing all that
is to be seen, catching all that is to be
caught, and killing everything that
can be classed os game. Our pussion
for bloodshed has not been cultivated
to any very great extent up to this
time, owing to tho scarcity of game
on the river coming down.
Sunday was a dull day. Although
wo had two Rov’d Fathers aboard, we
had no regular service, as it is not
one of tho rules of the boat. We,
however, duly respected tho Sabbath
each after his own peculiar fashion.
Monday morning dawned on the Mul
ligans scanning with eager eyes the
banks of the river, each anxious to
catch the first glimpse of the scaly
reptile. The sun kissed tho cheeks
of the “Mulligan Guards” with a
warmth that was tropical and tinged
with brown their marble brows.
Pete and Nimble, on lower deck,
with rifles in hand, kept a sharp look- j
out for alligators. A hasty exclama- j
tion from Pete of “there he is!”i
caused Nimble to empty the contents !
of his rifle into a black chunk, much
to the amusement of the boat’s crew,
who knew a “gator” when they saw
one. The urdor of the riflemen caused
several shots at imaginary “gators.” ■
At last, by bribing one of the deck
hands to assist in the watch, a verita
ble reptile was discovered, and there
was much rejoicing below deck, but
it wus of short duration, as the balls
sped harmlessly by and the “gator”'
slid placidly into the water with a
contemptuous wink at the marksmen. 1
Billy Bowlegs and Moonshine Bill
came upon the scene of action and
soon caused the waters of the Chatta
hoochee to be dyed with the blood of
a small-sized terrapin. The ice was
now broken and the rivulry of the
various marksmen was exciting. Bet
ter success attended their efforts, and
soon “gators,” fish-hawks, &c., &c.,
suffered at their hands.
We leave for St. Andrews Bay in
the morning in the “Red Jacket,” a
handsome yacht of fourteen tons.
Our outfit is complete, and with fa
vorable winds will be busy with game
and fish by to-morrow noon.
We met upon our arrival hero the
“Red Snapper Club,” just returned
from a short trip in the bay. They
are having a splendid time, and will
leave in a day or two for the celebra
ted snapper banks.
We are much indebted to Captains
Moore and Whitesides for courtesies.
Yours, in haste,
One of the Mulligans.
An exchange says: “Prof. Win. L.
Broun, of the University of Georgia,
read a paper on cyclones before the
recent session of the Georgia Teach
ers’ Association. There is not a man
in Georgia of more depth than Prof.
Broun.”
Not one. His theory that cyclones
are not caused by electricity is “too
deep” for the understanding.

The I'M ol Government.
The expenses of tho United States
government in 1874 were almost as
great as those of England! The ex
penses of Great Britain during the
past year were $371,640,000. Those of
the United States for the same period,
$283,238,700. Tlie difference in our
favor does not reach s9o,ooo,(hki. Yet
England Ims an immense civil list to
keep up, the Royal family are costly,
and each year there arc visits from
foreign crowned heads, witli their
followers, which eat a hole in the
public funds of large dimensions. Be
sides, Great Britain Ims a large army
and navy. That nation has one hun
dred and thirty thousand men and
officers to pay, feed and clothe. The
United States have twenty-four thous
and officers and men on the pay list.
England pays for her one hundred
and thirty thousand soldiers of all
ranks $65,000,000 per year. The Uni
ted States are taxed $42,313,927 for
their twenty-four thousand men. It
costs five dollars per head per year
to support the soldiers of England.
In the United States the oost is over
seventeen dollars per soldier per year.
Tho British navy has two hundred
and forty ships in commission, and
sixty thousand officers, seamen and
marines on the pay-roll. That roll
amounts to $51,000,000 per annum.
We have forty vessels in commission,
and the complement of officers and
men is twelve thousand. The dispro
portion between the expenses of the
two sea services is startling.—Lynch

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN :
On the 14th of December, 1872, I
was made acquainted witli Mr. Tru
man Gibson, when he asked permis
sion to address me, whereupon he
received my consent. On February
17th, 1874, our engagement took place,
ami on September 28th, 1875, we were
to be married. On aecount of his
jealousness I feel constrained now to
give him up, as he said he wanted
me to give up all my society, compa
ny and friends, and also cease visit
ing my mother, which I cannot do.
So from this day henceforth we will
be strangers.

Gov. Smith of Georgia. -Governor
Smith’s father was an honest, indus
trious blacksmith, and is well re
membered by several of the citizens
of that section. Governor Smith ob
tained the rudiments of an education
from Mr. Milton Wilder, who taught
a select school near Jeffersonville,
and had as school mates Judge
Trippe, General Philip Cook, Judge
Peter Love, and other distinguished
men of Georgia. This settles the
question of his nativity, for which
honor Twiggs has contended, and
owing to the nearness of his resi
dence to the eounty line, and the fact
that he attended school in Jefferson
ville, has misled the Governor, and
we believe he says he was born in

The slavo population of 1790 was,
in fourteen States. 687,681. In 18(H),!
in sixteen States, it was 890.358. In
1810, in nineteen States, it wus 1,186,-
967. In 1820, ill twenty States, it wns
! 1,538,022. In 1830, in twenty-six !
I States, the sluves numbered 2,009,043.
!In 1840, in twenty-five Stutes, they |
numbered 2,487,355. In 1850, in six
teen States, they numbered 3,204,313. j
In iB6O, in eighteen States, they num- 1
bored 3,953,760, and in the same year
the free colored population number- j
ed 488,070, making tho total of color
ed 4,442,830. The census of 1870 gives
the totul colored population of the
States and Territories of 4,880,009, an
increase during ten years, including
the years of the war, of 437,179. Du
ring the decade from 1850 to 1860 the
increase in the total colored popula
tion was 803,062. The increase in
euch preceding decade had been over
twenty per cent.
The free colored population in 1790
was 59,527; in 1800, 108,435; in 1810, j
186,445; in 1820, 233,034; in 1830, 319,-1
599; in 1840, 388,293: in 1850, 434,495:;
and in 1860, 488,070. This steady und
rapid increase in the number of the
free colored wus due chiefly to the
great numbers who were emancipated
■by the States before 1860 or by indi
viduals. No inference can, there
fore, be drawn respecting the influ
ences of their condition upon their
comparative longevity.
In round numbers the colored pop
ulation of the United States in lsoo
was one million of souls. Seventy
years afterwards it was found to be
nearly five times as great, or 4,880,000.
Importation ceased in 1820, but the
ratio of the increase was as great
after as before that date until 1860;
so that the negro population now in
the United States inuy be assumed to
be, for the most past, the descendants
of the 757,200 who were included in
the census of 1790. — N. O. Bulletin.

American Cycle>ptcdia.
New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten by the ablest writer* on every
subject. Printed from new type, aud illus
trated with Several Thousand Engravings
aud Maps.
Tho work originally published under the title
of Tiik New American CycIoFjKDIA was com
pleted in ICH)3. since which time the wide circula
tion which it has attained in all parts of the
United States, aud the signal developments which
have taken place in every branch of science, lit
erature and art, have induced the editors and
publishers to submit it to au exact and thorough
revision, and to issue a Hew editiou entitled The
American Cyclomuha.
Within tho last ten years the progress of dis
covery in every d.partmeut of knowledge has
made anew work of reference au imperative
want.
The movement of political affairs has kept pace
with the discoveries of science, ami their fruitful
application to the industrial and useful arts and
the convenience aud refinement of social life.
Great wsrs and consequent revolutions have oc
curred. involving national changes of peculiar
moment. The civil var of our owu country,
which was at its height when the last volume of
the old work appeared, has happily been ended,
and anew course of commercial aud industrial
activity has been commenced.
Large ai’cessions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorers of Africa.
The great political revolutions of tho last de
cade, with the natural result ol the lapse of time,
have brought into public view a multitude of new
men, whose names aru in every one's mouth, and
of whose lives every one is curious to know the
particulars. Great battles have been fought and
important sieges maintained, of which the de
tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers
or iu the transient publications of the day, but
which ought now to take their place in perma
nent and authentic history.
Iu preparing the present edition for the press,
it bos accordingly been the aim of the editors to
bring down the information to the latest possi
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate accouut of
the most recent discoveries in science, of every
fresh production in literature, and of tho newest
inventions in the practical arts, as well as to givo
a succinct and original record of the progress of
political aud historical events.
Tho work has been begun aft>T loug and care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resources for csrryiug it on to a successful term
ination.
None of the original stereotype plates have
been used, but every page has be.eu printed on
new* type, ionuing in tact anew Cyclopaedia, with
the same plan ami compass as its predecessor,
but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure,
aud with such improvements iu its composition
a.-* have been miggi sted by longer experience ami
enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which aro introduced for the
first time in the present edition have been added
not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give i
greater lucidity and force to the explanations in j
the text. They embrace all branches of science j
aud ol uatural history, aud depict the most j
famous and remarkable features of scenery,
architecture aud art, as well as the various pro- i
cesses of mechanics and manufactures, i
Although intended for instruction rather than ;
einbelishment, no pains have been spared to in- j
sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their !
execution is enormous, aud it is believed they
will find a welcome reception as an admirable
feature of the Cyclopedia, and worthy of its
high character.
This work is sold to Bubscribers only, payable
on delivery of each volume. It will be completed
in sixteen large octavo volumes, each containing
about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several
thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous
colored Lithographn- Maps.
