During tlie poxt week there wore aix
ularniH of Are almost one a Jay. Only
one alarm came from a lire which resulted
seriously. This was In the Instanced Mr.
Hush's residence, which was completely
destroyed. Three of the alarms were
eausod by the attempted burning of Mr.
D. W. Ajiplor's residence. Mix alarms In
one week is something very unusual for
Columbus, and though only one resulted
seriously, It Is to bo hoped this unusual
occurrence will not occur again soon.
Query.
The little darkies who were hurt by ites
cuo Fire Company’s ladders, the other
day, are bettor. The one who was expect
ed to die is reported as “alive and kick
ing.” On this subject a cruel wag hands
us the following "horrid” conundrum:
“Why Is Kescue Fire Company the best
In the city? Because It kills two niggers
at a lick!”

i'osterduy evening a lire broke out in the
picker-room of the Muscogee Mills. The
alurm was given Immediately, and all the
engines were soon out and hurrying to
wards the spot. The mills are well pre
pared against the contingencies of (Ire,
and the (lames were extinguished before
the (ire companies arrived. The (ire,
though small, was a most dangerous one,
and it Is lucky that those nearest hud the
nerve and proHcnco of mind to act culinly.
Loose cotton was lying all around, and If
Mm flumes had once gotten under head
way it would have boon next to impossible
to have extinguished them.
Of the origin of the flro wo are not aware.
Croat care is usually token in this room,
and how even a spark could get in Is a
mystery. There was considerable oxcite
mentwhen it wan announced oil the streets
that the Muscogee Mills were on (Ire, but
it soon calmed down.

Death of an Eitmrd land*.
Miss Harriot Torrance, a sister of the
late Manstield Torrance, Esq., departed
this life at iier residence In tliis city on
Thursday night last, after a long illuoss.
Bhe was about 70 years of age. She was
for many years a resident of Columbus,
and a consistent member of the Methodist
Church. She was a good woman, and until
within n few years past, during which
time she lias been in declining health, she
was an active and useful Christian, known
and loved by her many friends -especially
the poor of the community—for her unos
tentatious kindness and many deeds of
charity. The funeral, which was attended
by a large number of mourning friends,
took place yesterday afternoon. She lias
her reward henceforth hi a “crown of
righteousness" and the plaudits of a
Saviour!

Napoleon Bonaparte Pitts, I'amlHarly
yclept Bony, was arraigned before tlto
Mayor for several “disorderlies.” Bony
did not loom up. Ho was guilty of the
charge, anil he know it. The Mayor knew
it too, and llnd him $5 on this account, and
also $7 50 for contompt In not coining, or
instead of both, ten days on the chain
gang.
Areabor Martin, he of the hand organ
and monkey, was brought up for shooting
a pistol. He could not get the intricacies
of English exactly, and Mr. Vclatti acted
as Interpreter for the court. The case was
rich. The Italian was indignant at the ac
cusations of his enemies, who insisted that
ho tired at the wife of his bosom. Ho as
sured the court of his scrupulous fidelity
in all the marital relations, and clearly in
dicated his scorn of an action so unmanly,
so mean, and so unlike his general oliarae
tor. Ho maintained that he was training
his monkey with the pistol, and that just
as his spouse appeared the weapon un
luckily dropped and exploded. The cir
cumstances seemed to favor the truth of
the Italian’s plaintive tale, and ho was
dismissed.

Hallway Travel.
From nearly evory city hi Ooorgia and
■from nearly every railroad comes the
complaint thut travel this (Spring has been
uuprecodenUy light.
The trains that have come to Columbus
for the post month huvo brought remark
ably few passengers. The average has
been less than a half a dozen to a train.
Freights have also been very light, lighter
than they were a year ago.
This state of affairs must bo distressing
to our railroads. They have reduced their
expenses as much as posslblo, and now
pay out only what Is absolutely necessary
for the maintenance and continuance of
their business. The salaries of railroad
officials have been almost universally cut
down. On no corporations does the pre
valence of “hard tlmos” seem to have fall
en so heavily as on railroads.
Thpse that are clearing expenses ought
to consider themselves fortunate. Every
road, in Ooorgia, that hus made a return
during the present year shows a decrease
of its net gain from lost year’s ligurcs.
The Georgia Railroad, one of the richest
and best managod roads in the South,
shows a decrease of net gain for this fis
cal year from those of (he last which Is
vory considerable.
The Western and Atlantic Railroad Is
thought to be the only one in the State
that Is making much money. Though the
lessee* deny that they have yet been great
ly profited by the lease, yet it Is very gen
erally believed that they have made im
mense sums since they took charge.
During the summer half the travel in the
State passes over this road. Nearly all
travel to the North and West takes this
route. It is thought that In a few weeks
the travel on roads In the State will be
improved, as people will soon begin to 1
seek summer resorts. From present indi
cations this travel will not lie as large as
usual. The watering places are very
thinly attended so far. The coming sum
mer promises to bo very dull. Resorts
and watering plares are not apt to present
their usual gaiety; railroads are carrying
light freights and few passengers; hotel
keepers are gloomy and eomplalll*of a
want of custom, and everything In this
line liKikH dull. Tills state of alfairs is
fully as bad at Columbus ns at any other
point we know of.

Water.
The Broad street well is almost comple
ted, and water in abundance has been ob
tained. The pump will be put in to-day,
and everything will lie ready for keeping
down the dust,
Tlio new pump is something of an exper
iment, and the agent of the company
which manufactures them is anxious to
introduce the invention into Columbus.
If the pump does not do a!! that is guar
anteed for 11, the agent will make no
charge. The merchants who have gone
into this enterprise have suffered heavily
from the dust, and have resolved to stand
it no longer. Their goods are continually
covered with it, and greatly damaged
thereby. It is utterly impossible to koop
a store on Broad street neat during the
summer.
The watering wagons which wore once
used and so common in most small cities,
have proven very insufficient to keep the
streets in anything like a good condition.
ltecently there has been very little talk
of tho plan proposed some time since of
having the water forced up by the Eagle
and I’heiiix water wheel and brought
through pipes to Broad street. This plan
would be rather too expensive, and it is
doubtful whether it would work well. If
tho force pumps do what the agent of the
company guarantees, they will furnish n
<.-hoap ami effective method of watering the i
streets. The cost will be small. Tho one j
now engaged will cost only slls. It will!
afford water for about half of one block, j
The merchants who have engaged in it:
are certain it will suceced. If it does, j
there will probably bo others put up along
Broad street. The cost to each merchant
will bo about $lO. Some of them suffer
twenty times that amount from the effect
of dust on their goods.
We have only one business street of im
portance, and it should lie kept in just as
good a condition as possible. At present
it is without any means of keeping down
tho dust, and consequently is often in a
very unclean, and disagreeable condition.
Call at J. .1. Whittle’s and get some of
the Eureka Spool Silk. It is the smooth

The two negreanen who wore arrowled
j Thursday afternoon, on the charge of fir
! ing the residences of Mr. D. W. Appier ami
Mr. T. J. Dudley, are still conAneri hi the
guard-house. It seems to he certain that
they are guilty. Mr. Appier’s servant is
said to have confessed her guilt yesterday,
and in her confession to have implicate!
j the other prisoner. She has lived with
Mr. Appier since the war, and has proven
jtobe a very good servant. We have not
hoard what cause she assigns for her act
There seems to be other parties implicat
ed in the attempts to burn. One or two
are in the country, and an officer went out
yesterday to see to their arrest
It is very probable that if t he parties are
tried one of them will turn Htate’s evi
dence, and hope to •'scape in this way.
Then. 1 * was very little proof against either
of them at tlrst, but if the confessions re
ported were really made, the ease will go
hard with the accused. Our law affixes a
terrible penalty to incendiarism and to all
attempts at it, and all who are guilty of
so heinous a crime should be made to suf
fer.

New Revised Edition.
Entirely rewritten I>> tlu* ablest writer* on every

and Map*.
The work originally published under the title
of Thk Nkw Ameukax Cxcuwjsdia wuh com
pleted Id 1803, lines which time the wide circula
tion which it ha* attained in all part* of tho
United State*, and the signal development* which
have token place In every brooch of science, lit
erature oud art. hove induced tho editor* and
publiNher* to *ubuiit it to on exact and thorough j
revision, and to i**uu o new edition entitled Thk j
Amkkican Ctclopxpxa.
Within the lo*t ten year* tho progicnH of dis
covery in every department of knowledge has
iiGide. o new work of reference un imperative
want.
The movement of political affair* hu* kept pace
with the discoveries of science, and their irntMul
application to the industrial and useful arts au<l
the convenience and refinement of social life.
Great war* and consequent revolution* have oc
curred, involving national changes of peculiar
moment. Tho civil war of our own country,
which was at it* height when the la*t volume <t
the old work appeared, ha* happily been ended,
and anew course of commercial and industrial j
activity ha* been commenced.
Large acccunions to our geographical knowl
edge have been made by the indefatigable ex
plorer* of Africa.
The great political revolution* of the lust de
cade, with the natural rewult of the lapse of time, j
have brought into public view a multitude of new'
men, whose name* are in every one** mouth, and
of who*e live* every one i* curious to know the
particulars. Great bottle* have >eeu fought and
important siege* maintained, ot which the tie- j
tail* are a* yet preserved only in the newspaper*
or in the transient publications of the day. but 1
which ought now to take their place in perms
nent and authentic history.
In preparing the present edition f‘>r the press, ;
it lias accordingly been the sun ol the editor* to
brmg down the information to the latest p<*ai- |
ble dates, and to furnish an accurate account of ,
the most recent discoveries in Mcience, of every |
fre*h production in literature, and of the newest i
Inventions in the practical art*, a* well us to give
a succinct and original record of the progress of
political and historical event*.
The work ha* been beguu after long and care
ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample
resource* for carrying it ou to a suece**ful term
ination.
None of the original stereotype plate* have
i been u*ed, but every page ha* beeu print* and on
new type, forming in iaet anew Cyclopedia, with
: the same plan ami compass a* its predecessor,
but with a fur greatef pecuniary expenditure,
1 and with such improvement* in its composition
as have been suggested by longer experience and
! enlarged knowledge.
The illustrations which ar-> introduced for the
! tlrst time in the present edition have been willed
! not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give
j greater lucidity and force to the explanation* in
j the text. They embrace all branches of science
j and of natural history, and depict the most
I famous and remarkable features of scenery,
• architecture and art, u* well us the various pro-
I cesses of mechanics and manufacture*.
| Although intended for instruction rather than
i embelishmcnt. no pain* have beeu spared t<< iu
| sure their artistic excellence: the cost of their
execution i* enormous, and it i* believed they
i will find a welcome reception as an admirable
J feature of the Cyclopedia, and worthy of its
i high character.
This work is sold to Subscriber* only, payable
j on delivery of each volume. It will bo completed
' in sixteen largo octavo volumes, each containing
I about HOO pages, fully illustrated with several

Jordan's Joyous Julep,
A Specific for Neuralgia.
TESTIMONIALS.
PIBTKKsTiI ho, Va., Jau. 20th, 1875.
, John L. Jordan. Esq.—Dear Sir: Bo well pleased
: am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tea
! tify to the superior merit of your unoqualcd
I preparation lor Neuralgia. I shall esteem my
-1 *r lf happy should even one of that worst of all
! classes . >f sufferers te led through me to take the
1 Julep. My wife has for ten 110) years been a mar
tyr to tho most malignant and persistent neural
gic torture, without being able to liud any relief
| except from your preparation. She. was relieved
i by the second dose as per directions, and has not
1 hud a return of it for two months. To some I
; may seem strangely Bangui ne about your medi-
I cine, but I have a right to bo so. It is not rea
i *nnable to suppose this malignant malady would
I have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for
I sustaining itself, and that too in a minute, and
the very minute your medicine was taken. If so,
It Is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, and
I prefer giving the credit in your favor ot the
best testimony man can ever have—experience.
Vary truly yours,
•JAMES T. TOSH.
Columbus, January 16,1875.
Mr i Jo>\lan: —l take great pleasure In recoin -

! the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter

j three skillful physiciaus, with very little benefit,
' and used all the usual remedies w ith little sue

i i.iauent cure. It is only two days since we began

benefit. Youra, with reaped,

The demand for Dr. J. Bradflold’s Fe
male Regulator is beyond precedent in
the annals of popular remedies. Orders
come in so thick and fast that tin* Propri
etor has, heretofore been unable to filP
them all. He is happy to state that ar
rangements are now complete by which
he is prepared to manufacture Female
Regulator on a scale equal to tho emer
gency, and the public may feel assured
that their wants may now bo supplied.
Physicians of high repute are using this
great rem<dv, in daily practice, all over
Georgia. Hereafter no woman need suf
fer from suppressed, suspended or irreg
ular menstruation. This valuable medi
cine is prepared by L. H. Bradiield, Drug
gist, Atlanta, Gn., and sold at $1.50 per
tfottle by druggists throughout America.

Messrs, Bradjield J (:
Gentlemen—You will pleaso ship us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward Gill by mail. We
are happy to state that j his remedy gives
butter satisfaction time any article we
sell. We have been selling it since 1868,
and witnessed many lvmarkuble cures by
it. Among oil tern, there was a lady
friend of ours who was sallow and sickly
until sin* was twenty-six years old, when
she was married. Her husband livid two
vears and died. Kho continued in bad
health; in fact, she has never been what
a woman ought to Is*. A few months
after the 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 lias cured her sound and
well, brought her regular monthly peri
ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom
ing widow with the use of but two bot
tles of your Regulator, costing her only
throe 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
dies, we are, respectfully yours, etc.,
