Coluraliu. Uiun'd.’ Pic NIC. Tho second moonlight picnic of the soa son, given by tho Columbus Guards, came off last night at Villa Belch. Tho night was not as favorable os It might have boon. Tho moon did not do herself justice. The ball room was well ventilated and thus made very pleasant. It was the scene of most of the festivity. Dancing was in order thore from about eight o'clock until after midnight. Music for tho occasion was furnished by Willis Carter’s string bund. Tho floor managers did their duty well. They preserved the best order, and we have never seen a bet tor conducted uffulr than tho picnic of lost evening. Tho grand organ which is owned by Mr. Belch, and which is a masterpiece of me chanical genius, was put into operation for the bonollt of those who had tho curi osity to hour It. It plays well since it has been repaired. There was a large number of spectators who did not participate in the general en joyment of the evening, but found a quiet pleasure in looking on at tho merry throng. Tho Garden was chosen by a large num ber of couples for promenading. It was In lino order. There are a number of rustic scats arranged in different parts of it, and these wore almost constantly occupiod. Many pleasant little Incidents occurred during tho evening. There was nothing to mar or interrupt the pleasure of those who attended. “Lager beer for the health" was not an unpopular beverage. It was served to all who desired it on little tables in tho ante-rooms. Tho attendance was not very largo. The room was very pleasantly filled, how ever, and the enjoyment was much greater on this account. There was no rush or jam. Tho children had the ball room all to themselves in tho afternoon. Several members of tho company wont down to see thut they enjoyed themselves. The little ones wore happy, as usual, and their festivity lasted from throe o'clock until dark. Au opportunity was thus afforded for tho pleasure of all ages. There were quite u number of the Colum bus Guards and City Light Guards on tho Moor in uniform last night. A little after twelve o’clock the festivity coased and everybody went home happy. We congratulate the Guards upon the success of their entertainment, and hope that they may be rewarded for their ef forts to give pleasure to others by an abundant harvostof thq omnipotent green hacks.

Yesterday the darkies of the Methodist and Baptist denominations had a grand union pic-nic in tho grove near tho res idence of Mrs. Hines Holt, in Wynnton. They formed into a procession and march ed through the city. The line was about four squares long, and contained every species of the dusky genus. After parading through various parts of the city, they proceeded to the festive grounds, headed and directed by two or throe individuals of the dominant com plexion, who were mounted on richly oapansonod stoeds and adorned with boau tiful sashes of pink, yellow and blue. The groves of Wynnton were full of tho happy amendments all day. Gamos and sports of various kinds made the hours pass pleasantly. There was the largest gener al collection of darkies that has been in this vicinity for some time. A notice able scarcity of tbo colored race in the city, plainly showed that something of extraordinary interest was going on. Broad street was free of them, and it was hard to find one for an odd job or errand. The pic-nic of yesterday is said to have been immensely enjoyed. The darkies came back late in the after noon looking a little hot and weary, but none the less happy on this account. For a scene of unalloyed pleasure we know of nothing to equal a colored pic-nic.

Despite the fact that blackberry sellers are the greatest and most indestructible of nuisances, except pine peddlers, most of housekeepers are rather glad to see the luscious fruit coming in. There is great joy among the colored troops. There will soon bo berries enough and work enough for all. The first berries of the season taste well, but when we consider the prospect of hav ing berries for all three meals, and served inallstyles, we are not so glad to see them after nil.

Messrs. Bradfield A G).: Gentlemen—You will please ship us an other supply of your invaluable Female Regulator, and forward Gill by mail. We are happy to state that this remedy gives better satisfaction than any article we sell. We have been sidling' it since 1868, and witnessed many remarkable cures by it. Among others, there was a lady friend of ours who was sallow and sickly until she was twentv-six years old, when she was married. Her husband lived two years and died. She continued in bad health; in fact, she has never been what a woman ought to be. A few months after tho death of her husband she saw your advertisement, and came to our store and bought a bottle of your Regula tor from us, and took it according to di rections. It has cured her sound and well, brought her regular monthly peri ods on, and Uwday she is a hearty, bloom ing widow—with the use of but two bot tles of your Regulator, costing her only three dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without any benefit. Wishing you great success with your valuable reme ies, we are, respectfully yours, etc., w. Root * Sons. np?9 Tm SCRAPS. Strawberries come In fast from all quar ters, and prices have gotten quite low. There Is almost a picnic for every day this week, and still some people arc not happy. Flour is still going down a little, and It may reach an old fashioned price again after awhile. Justice courts are dull now. Petit com plaints and disagreements seem to be dying out. Tho spelling bee sensation seems to have died completely, and we will have to wait for another sensation. Hot sun, ripe berries, swarming flics, straw hats arid thin undershirts all attest the solemn fact that summer lias come. One of the most pleasant affairs of the season will be tho Baptist pic-nic at Kings boro’ next Saturday. The Superior Court of Muscogee county never met in such convenient and hand some apartments as those which it now occupies. There is said to boa period in every boy’s life when ho would rather be a ring master of a circus than President of the United States. The Lee Light Infantry, of Opelika, is a handsome body of men. They will have their uniforms soon, and, perhaps, they maybe induced to pay a visit to Colum bus. The young men that compose this company are full of the true spirit and are determined‘to make it a success. Male and female fashions are fast assim ilating. The girls now wear scarfs exact ly like the boys, and the latter complain that they cannot got, any choice articles of this kind, as they are invariably picked over on arrival by tho anxious fair ones. Another grand shooting match between America and Ireland will soon take place. At the one held last year at Creedmoor the American team wus successful, mak ing the finest shooting on record. Tho Americans use the breech-loaders and the Irish the old muzzle-loaders in these con tests. Fan at Kluttuboro'. The Sunday school of the First Bap tist Church is going up to Kingsboro’ on Saturday, and their excursion will be pleasant and complete in every particular. The grounds chosen for the pic nlc are fine, and on them there is the best well of water in t his section of tho country. Flying horses, swings, Ac. will be ar ranged for the children. Croquet ifnd other games will be nicely prepared on the grounds. The excursion will leave the Oglethorpe street depot early in the morning, and re turn in tho afternoon. A delightful day will be spent in tho country. The ladies of the church have made ample prepara tions, and we are sure that the Baptist pic nie of Saturday will be a rare success.

We shall endeavor to describe them fully, faithfully aud fearlessly. THE WEEKLY SUN has now attained a circula tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers are found iu every State aud Territory, aud its quality is well known to the public. We shall not only endeavor to keep it fully up to the old standard, but to improve and add to its variety and power. TIIE WEEKLY SUN will continue to be a thor- I ough newspaper. All the news of the day will be found in it, condensed when unimportant, at full length when of moment, aud always, we trust, treated iu a clear, interesting and instruct ive manner. It is our aim to make the Weekly Sun the best family newspaper in the world. It will be full of entertaining and appropriate, reading of every sort, but will print nothing to offend the roost scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always contain the most interesting stories and ro mances of the day, carefully selected aud legibly printed. The Agricultural Department is a prominent feature in the Weekly Bun, and its articles Will always be found fresh and useful to tho farmer. The number of men independent in politics is increasing, and the Weekly Sun is their paper especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no dictation, contending for principle, and lor the election of the best men. It exposes the corrup tion that disgraces the country aud threatens the overthrow of republican institutions. It has no fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from their supporters. The markets of every kind and the fashions are regularly reported. The price ef the WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a year for a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six col umns. As this barely pays the expenses of paper aud printing, we are not able to make any dis count or allow any premium to friends who may make special efforts to extend its circulation. Under the new law, which requires payment of postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get up a club in order to have the Weekly Sun at this rate. Any one who sends one dollar aud twenty cents will get the paper, postpaid for one year. We have no traveling agents. THE WEEKLY SUN—Eight pages, 56 columns. Only $1.20 a year, postage prepaid. No discount from this rate. THE DAILY SUN—A large four-jiage newspaper of twenty-eight columns. Daily circulation over 120,000. All the news for 2 cents. Subscription, postage prepaid, 55 cents a month, or $6.50 a year.

The civil war of our own country, which was at its height when the last volume nl the old work appeared, has happily been ended, and anew course of commercial aud industrial activity lias been commenced. l.arge accessions to our geographical knowl edge have been made by the indefatigable ex plorers of Africa. The great political revolutions of the last de cade, with the natural result of the lapse oi time, have brought into public view a multitude of new men, whose names are in every one’s mouth, aud of whose lives every one is curious to know the particulars. Great battles have been fought und important sieges maintained, of which the de tails are as yet preserved only in the newspapers or in the transient publications of the day, but which ought now to take their place iu perma nent and authentic history. Iu preparing the present edition for the press, it has accordingly been the aim ot the editors to bring down the information to the latest possi ble dates, aud to furnish au accurate account of tho most recent discoveries in science, of every fresh production in literature, aud of the newest inventions iu the practical arts, as well as to give a succinct and original record of the progress of political aud historical events. The work has been begun alter long and care ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample resources for 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 iu fact anew Cyclopedia, with the same plan and compass as its predecessor, but with a far greater pecuniary expenditure, aud with such improvements in its composition as have been suggested by longer experience and enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first time in the prescut edition have been added not for the Make of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucidity aud force to the explanations iu the text. They embrace all branches of science and of natural history, and depict the most famous and remarkable features of scenery, architecture and art, as well as the various pro cesses of mechanics aud manufactures. Although intended for instruction rather than embelishmeut. no pains have been spared to in sure their artistic excellence; the cost ol their execution is enormous, and it is believed they will find a welcome reception as an admirable feature of the Cyclopaedia, 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 large octavo volumes, each containing about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engravings, aud with numerous colored lithographic Maps.
