THE DAILY TIMES, Columbus. Oiki SUNDAY.. MAY IC. 187S. HUOII rOMTAIXE, 1 _ > • - Editors. . If. WILI.IAMH. J LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION ft City Mud Suburbs. RCMOTAI.. The Tlitre Office baa been removed from Gun by'M Building to the old Enquirer Office, on Ran dolph street, third door west of the Poat Office. A New Feature. Mirny different and varied schemes have been inaugurated by the people of tiie Mouth to induco immigrants to eomo among us. Wo have urged upon our legislative bodies to appro priate funds to bring before the world our peculiar advantoges and the sa lubrity of the climate. Something has been dono in this direction, but nothing yet done has accomplished the desirod effect. The truth of tho matter is that nino-tenths of tho im migrants for this country have not tho remotest idea where they will land or in what State they will settle. Their movements after they reach “America” are determined by capi talists and by the inducements the different sections hold out to them. In the absence of any organized ar rangement to bring Georgia to their ( especial notice, wo have determined ( upon u small plan of our own which may or may not turn them. If it ‘ does not, no harm is done, and the . cost is small. It is well known that this journal is run only in the interest of the South, ( tho Slate and Colombo*, and adhering ; to that idea we liave made arrange ments to send a number of the Daily Times to a reliablo friend in New York for gratuitous distribution in Castle Garden. At that place the im migrants land, und there they form their plans for permanent location. If our efforts will induce but a few fam- . dies of honest Irish, English, French, German or Swiss emigrants to make . their home near us, we will feel am- ( ply repaid for our trouble. Of course ( wo do not expect to accomplish much, ( but we think that a goodly number of our paper placed in tho hands of , families upon their arrival, will, to a certain extont, givo us some sort of a half way showing against the mail- , cions lies that are promulgated to ( them by Northern fanatiCß, against | the South, and iier sacred institu- , lions and ideas. { Georgia and East Alabamu presents , the most varied field from which the ( immigrant eon choose, of any country ( in tho world. If they want to farm, , here is the Eden spot of America, , that will bloom, blossom and bring , forth fruit under their trained man- j agemont. If they prefer tho manu- ( faeturing, or mochanical trades, here they find the steady demand and the raw material at their doors. If they are in search of a healthful climate, they could not bo better suited than casting their lots with us. Here, we are Democrats, and not aristocrats, and tho claims of tho Caucasian will not, and is not prejudiced. Wo want honest white men with their families to come among us, buy our very cheap lands, and build up this glo rious country with us, share our com ing prosperity and enjoy our future glory. We will try and givo accurate information of our lauds and our re sources regularly, thus hoping to do something in the way of building up our country. The .’lnrlnmuT Way Frsllval. Wo envy Cincinnati its music-lov ing population, and, to our mind, Central Park, at the time of Theodore Thomas’ concerts, is the most attrac tive featuro of metropolitan Now York. To the bassa classa nothing is so attractive as tho shoddy preten sion of the royalty-aping Helmbolds, that glitter like tinsel when the fash ion-loving beau mantle throng tho roads and avenues of Central Park. Were we possessed of tho magic powor of Asmodeus we would tnko our stand there in order to correctly weigh tho various elements of human character. But to hear Theodore Thomas’ orchestra givo the sympho nies of Beethoven, or tho Lohengrin of Wagner, or the grand “Trium phied,” as he played it at Cincinnati, is enough to drive away dull care and make of earth a temporary Elysium. Divest Italy of its Verdis, and the thousands who study tho works of its Maeetin— raw to the ground its Sea las and Teatro Apollo and modern art would not, as it now does, form a grand/oyer to light the way to the proper realization of tho (esthetic beauty of tho arts of antiquity. Mu sic is the proper interpreter of tho True, the Beautiful, and the Good. It is worth a trip to Vienna to hear the orchestra of J.ohann Strauss play “ Le Reveil du Lion” and the electric waltzes that havo perpetuated the nnmo of Strauss and daily draw thou sands to tho Volksgarten. The Thiergarten, at Berlin, is a lovely resort, but it is necessary to hear Bilse and his orchestra to feel that these Prussians arc Germans of the warm-hearted nation that wor ships Meyerbeer, Beethoven, Men delssohn, Mozart and Listz. One then forgets the cold, busy, energetic sub ject of tho most bureaucratic of Em pires, when his inner nature expands to the sounds of tho “Magic Flute.” After all, Americans get thoir taste for watering places and musie festi vals from our German population. Cincinnati is especially blessed in this respect— and we know of no city in tho West where the facilities for hearing good musie gratuitously are equal to those found in Cincinnati. Thoohief charm in the accomplish ments of our Southern girls is tho almost universal taste for music. There is eomething in our climate that seems to prepare the voice for the fullest musical development. It is to be regretted that the masses are utterly cut off from tho elevating in fluences of music. Until we have a largo German population wo can not hope to have the Saale des Kurhduses and public music. To go “over the j Rhino” at Cincinnati is to find these ; beautiful German customs. 01 R NEW YORK LETTER. Corrt-Mpoudcnce of the Timer.] New York, May 9, 1875. Dew Times: The Associated Press has in a degree robbed correspond ence of its charm. In days gono by the readers of provincial papers wait ed longingly and with impatience for the weekly letter of our “Special Cor respondent,’ ’ wherin was detailed gos sip of every description, from the me tropolitan scientific records to the history of tho last style of hat. In this week’s summary one might read extracts from the last sermon, tho referee’s decision in tho last prize fight, the fluctuations in the stock market and the price of butter. Now condensed into a corner, and appear ing almost simultaneously with their Northern cotemporarics, tho South ern journals havo all these facts placed before their readers day after day. The press dispatches givo your readers. certainly an idea of events which transpire at remote distances, but fail to let them, as it were, behind the scene, and thus is reserved still to the correspondent tho prerogative and tho right of leading those who follow him into the presencoof things as they are, untinctured by the adul teration of sensational telegraphic items. Gleaned from “Clippings,” your pat rons may havo learned that the “Two Orphans” has “run” five months, and Nym Crinkle, in the Sunday World, may have told tho 3tory of the two wanderers in Paris, in his graph ic pen pictures, but how many of your readers will have learned to know the merits of the beautiful delineators of the “Orphan Sisters.” Tho Brooklyn scandal, in its de basing details, spreads over the land like a stain, the actors in tiie drama feeing the press to p#int partisan re cords, and very few at a distance from tho scene of enactment can read these reports, and form a just esti mate of the questions involved in the issue so near at hand. From the centre of the metropolis with eyes open to passing events, I with ears alert to catch each whisper of current news, with judgment calla ble of sifting the chaff from tho wheat, and witli sympathies and love for those whose interests are dear to his heart, the Southern resident of this great city, it seems, would still find those who would read an occa sional letter and appreciate a few words once in a while from an old friend; and though uot quite filling tho description of such a correspond ent, the present communication comes from one who loves everything in the old land, and takes this opportunity of sending greetings to the kind friends of ids boyhood, to the asso ciates of his young manhood, and to everything familiar and dear to him in your littlifeity. There is a strange charm about Co lumbus. It amounted, in my boy hood, to a worship, and a long ab sence would be sure to be followed by a nostalgia, equal almost to the liomo-longing of the Tyrolese and Swiss. Often now, when the iron hand of necessity has forced her sons to leave her, amid brighter scenes ami more stirring life, wo sometimes meet together, wanderers from the old home, recall each loved spot, talk j over old friends and old times, and re-picture to our minds the homes and haunts of our boyhood. When some passing incident recalls to us bygone years, when a voice from tho past sings in our ears, we can closo our eyes to tho gilded facts be fore us and dream awhile of tho more natural pictures of our Southern land. Tho bright, autumn sunsets, lighting up tho Alabama hills —the quiet city, shading itself in the valley—the rapid river, dashing over its darns, and be coming musical as the turmoil of the busy day hushes to lot its murmurs be heard come back to ns, over und over again, in welcome memories. It is strauge how the most forlorn and dreary localities return to us in graceful and grateful recollections. The Brick Yard and Swamp lias a strange and wonderful claim upon my memory (connected, may be, with its occasional invasion by migratory woodcock); and tho plank-road, and bridges, gullies, and other nuisances, come back pleasantly now. In spite of the affection for the old land, ambition and gilded promise rob her of her sons -who, neverthe less, embalm the old spot in their memories and think of her long after she has ceased to mourn their loss. From the land of the North, and the home of his adoption, one of Colum bus’ sons herein greets the “land he loves,” and blends a whisper of gos sip with his words of uffeetion. The City of New York is, possibly, the greatest curiosity of the New World. Its rapid growth, its con stant changes, are causes of surprise to those who visit it from year to year. To those who live amid the whirl of the city’s progress, tho expansion is not so much observed, until some accidental event occurs to cause him to look about him. He then sees palaces rising, as it were by magic, from the waste spots where huge boulders of primeval rock last greet ed his eye, and by degrees he recog nizes the fact that he is in relation to the whole, a somewhat more unim portant atom than ho may havo esti mated himself a moment before. With the growth of inanimate things around liiin the living masses change from hour to hour—so that a day in tho metropolis may be likened to a generation in a small provincial city. Tijo tide of emigration brings to the city waves of life, which break upon her shores and spread and lose them selves in the whirlpool of activity on Manhattan Island, and each day crowds the population into denser compactness, till individuals can only be thought of as elements of the j moving masses. It lias become so crowded now, that to meet a friend or a familiar face in a thoroughfare, is an accident of rare occurrence; and unless one be thrown by busiuess re lations into frequent contact with a certain set of persons, he may stand in the most frequented places and rarely sec the same person twice. In this vast multitude grades of social rank have arisen from force of cir cumstances. Immense and almost fabulous weultli lias separated into a distinct class those whom fortune has thus favored. Poverty in her sluggish stream has a great popula tion struggling to keep their heads above the waters of want and from actual starvation; whilst a third, or middle class, too unfortunate to grow rich und too earnest to bo poor, float on the tide of life with scarce an envy for the wealth above, and with a sym pathy and a helping hand for the poorer and suffering class beneath them. New York lias the most crowded population on tiie continent, aver aging about twenty inmates to each house; whilst Chicago, Boston, Phil adelphia and other large places have about twelve. To meet the wants of the middle classes, a system of flats or floors has been adopted in New York so that, a man of moderate means can afford comfortable quarters without draw ing too heavily upon his scant in come. A comfortable home, with every accommodation and conven ience, can be rented for S6OO per an num, and the same accommodations may be obtained higher up town for half that sum. Life in a metropolitan city has charms which compensate for the struggle and battle to live. The ob server of human nature is amply re paid for the time consumed in traversing the long distances from place to place, by the opportunity given him of studying tho thousands of faces he meets, each expression yielding tho chance of drawing upon the imagination for some romance in which the typified emotion may be utilized. On one side of you may sit, in the same vehicle, the portly millionaire, whose face pictures tho self-complacency, and his luxurious 'contentment, while on the other hand, with thin and trembling fin-1 gers, counting with care the few coins returned by the conductor, may be found the pale, wan work woman, whose face tells the story of priva tion and care. Tiie scant and thread bare garment of the pauper, and the India shawl of the plump, well-fed princess of fashion, often touch each other, and tho contrast comes to us oftentimes, preaching a lesson to those who murmur at their fancied ills, showing by comparison, how content we should be, free from the burden of luxurious wealth, and safe from the bitterness and degradations of poverty. The luxurious tastes of a Stewart or a Lorillard, which conceives and ex ecutes the palaces which grace and adorn tiie city, appeals to the (esthe tic part of the poor artist , who, hands in pocket and segar in mouth, stands across the way to admire the monu ments of architectural skill these millionaires have raised, and the mov ing panorama of Fifth avenue is just as fair a picture to tho looker-on iu calico as to the one whose brilliant 1 silk orvelvet mantle helps to tint tho scone. I shall not prolong this letter, as it is but intended as an introductory. 1 I shall endeavor at another time to describe some of New York’s true ‘ greatness; her wonderful charities; her great men and women; her mu i nieipnl government, and note from ' time to time interesting items of cur -1 rent affairs. Business calls me away to-night in ! the busy throng, and I must bid good • bye, subscribing myself, ' As over, yours, M. Says tho Southern Watchman : ' The colored people of this county- I all who voted at all last Wednesday voted for Hill. It is highly eredit"- able to them that so large a number turned out and voted for an avowed 1 Democrat. Wo hope the time is at . hand when they will see, as every k body elso does, that, being now citi zens, their interests are identical wit h those of the whites, and that if the 1 Democrats will give them better laws f than the Radicals, it is their duty and I interest to vote the Democratic ticket. Just so. The negroes in Bartow county voted almost on masse for Dr. I Felton, than whom there is no more . pronounced “iron-ribbed'’ Democrat . in all tiie land. Our interests are . identical, and sooner or later both . white and colored will vote the same ticket. They voted for Felton in , spite of the fact that on every speech . he made he declared his determined , hostility to every aet of the Radicals. Fruit in some localities in North Georgia has been destroyed in oth- J ers it is not injured by the late bad weather. ’ Wallace has just paid $30,000 for a • summer residence.

Re ports from eommanderies and"lodges > thus far made show that 3,000 Knights . Templar and 10,000 Master Masons will be in line, with thirty brass bands. 5 Speaking of railroads a wag re > marked that they aro now built of , three different gauges, viz.: Broad gauge, narrow gauge and mortgage. 1 The latter “gage” seems to be play ing the mischief with the roads just > now. 1 The young Russian Princess Galit ' zin, who was married recently in Paris to the Duo de Chartress, intro - dueed a novelty in bridal attire. The . lace veil, instead of being fastened to the head, was attached to her slioul ’ ders and enveloped her whole form • like a veil. The l-rlnec of Waleß*ei® Main. The Prince, it is said, will make his progress through India in a very dif ferent way from that of ills previous journeys. He will not go, as ho came here, simply as Lord Renfrew'. He will have a gorgeous guard of honor of from six to ten thousand men, who will surround him with a glitter of military trappings wherever he goes. Ho will bo attended by a court of the i highest official, judicial arid military dignitaries, by a galaxy of nobles of high rank, and by the hierarchs of the Buddhist and Parsec fuiths. In! Ids train will be a cloud of turbaned and jewelled rajahs and mahrrajaha, of Bengalee and Madras princes. The company will be a splendid caravan, with cream-colored Arabian horses, and elephants, and camels, and tents und blazing banners. The Prince will go as u right, generous almoner; for £IOO,OOO of pure gold are to bo cast into medals and scattered right and left among tho kneeling Hindoos; though tiiis will cost nothing to Eng land, as it is arranged that the native princes will give to Wales again pres- j ents of double the value of his lar gesses. Tiie whole trip is expected to cost £700,000, but this, according to the notion of the Ministers, will not j be money thrown away in vain show, j Tim SECOND Grand Moonlight Picnic OF THE NKAMOX lIV The Columbus Guards, Wednesday, May 19,1875, YVt ATillo. nolcla, Ou the Banks of the Chattahoochee. rpilE moat Attractive Grounds in Georgia 1.

Jordan, Esq.—Dear Sir: So well pleased am 1 with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes tify to the superior merit of your unequaled preparation for Neuralgia. I shall esteem my self happy should even one of that worst of all classes of sufferers be led through me to take tho Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar tyr to the most malignant and persistent neural gic torture, without being able to find any relief except from your preparation. She was relieved by the second dose as per directions, aud ha* uot had a return of it for two months: To some I may seem strangely sanguine about your medi cine, but I havo a right to be so. It is uot rea sonable to suppose this malignant malady would have died or sheer exhaustion of capacity for sustaining itself, and that too in a minute, aud tho very minute your medicine was tak-u. If so, it is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, and I prefer giving the credit iu your favor of the best testimony man can ever have—experience. Vary truly yours. JAMES T. TOSH. Columbus, January 16, 1875. Mr.Jordan:— l take great pleasure in recom mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, has produced a most wonderful relief iu one oj the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter ever has had. She has been treated for it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, aud used all the usual remedies with little suc cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per manent cure. It is only two days since we began the use of it, aud it is apparently of permanent benefit. Yours, with respect, MRS. L. I. NORMAN. JOIIX 1,. ApotlM-enrj. No. 198 Broad Street, Columbus,. Ga.

IRELL \ < 0. ap7 tf APPLETOXS" American (yclopiedia. New Revised Edition. ; Entirely rewritten by the ablest writers on every j subject. Printed from new type, and illus- | trated with Several Thousand Engravings j ami Maps. The work originally published under tin title jof The New American C’ycloi'.edia was com ! pletedin 1863, since widt h time the wide circula | tion which it has attained in ail parts of the United States, and the signal developments which * have taken place iii every branch of science, lit ! erature aud art, have induced the editors and j publishers to submit it to an exact and thorough | revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The | American Cyclopedia. ; Within the last ten years the progress of dis ! covery in every department of knowledge lias ' made anew work of reference an imperative want. The movement of political affairs has kept pace , with the discoveries of science, and their fruitful ; application to the industrial and useful arts and i the convenience aud refinement of social life. 1 Great wars and consequent revolutions have oe j curred, involving national changes of peculiar moment. The civil war of our own country, i which was at its height when the last volume ot ! the old work appeared, has happily been ended, | aud anew course of commercial aud industrial ; activity has been commenced, i Large secessions to our geographical knowl j edge have been made by the indefatigable ex | plorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last de i carle, with the natural result of the lapse of time, have brought into public view a multitude of new j men, whose names are in every one’s month, and : of whose lives every one is curious to know the particulars. Great battles have been fought and i important sieges maintained, of which the de tail* 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 f->r the press, it ha* accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down the information to the latest possi ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of • the most recent discoveries in science, of every i fresh production in literature, and of the newest inventions in the practical arts, as well as to give Ia succinct and original record of the progress of , political and historical events. The work has been begun after long aud care ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample j resources lor carrying it on to a successful term ination. None of the original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been printed on new type, forming in fact anew Cyclopaedia, with the same plan aud compass a* its predecessor, but w ith a far greater pecuniary expenditure, and with such improvements in its composition a* have been suggested by longer experience and enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first time iu the. present edition have been added not for tin* sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. They embrace all branches of science and of natural history, ami depict the most famous and remarkable features of scenery, architecture, and art, as well as the various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although intended for instruction rather than embelishment. no pains have been spared to in sure their artistic excellence; tho cost of their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception a* an admirable feature of the Cyclopedia, and worthy of its high character. This work is sold to Subscribers only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed in sixteen largo octavo volumes, each containing about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, and with numerous colored Lithographic Map*.
