was adjourned dflrlh/j vacation to meet n

thero Is no law for an adjournment during
vacation: Heni-e It Is inferred that the
term was not a legal one, and that all the

It Is to he hoped there Is no truth in this
rumor. Tho term bus boon one of unusual
length, and tho expense to tho county has
lawn enormous. It would be useless to
transact again such a largo amount of
business, Whether the suggestion of
which we luivo spoken will assume any

K. writes us, from Scale, most encourag
ing news concerning the crops In Russell
county, Ala. *
From all parts of the county thero comes
the most encouraging reports, and tho far
iiwrn ftro confident of success in tho year’s
work.
The crops are bettor than they have
lioen since tho war; so say tho oldest and
most reliablo farmers.
Cotton Is not very forward, but the stand
Is fine and the crop growing fast . Moro
corn is planted this year than last, and it
is growing finely. The average yield will
be unusually large.
Good rains have recently fallen In va
rious parts of tho county. If they continue
tho crops will surely be tho finest that has
been made since the war.
From present prospects it is almost cer
tain that the farmers will Is; able to pay
out of debt and get even with the world
again. Almost every year since the war
they have been compelled to go deeper
and deeper in debt, and farming has been
a very poor business.
Tho county will be in a good condition
by tho close of the present year if all
works well.
rORHFATIOV
Bfjihatcon y mjrrKD— pka(t. in Alabama.
We have berm requested by Air. B. M.
fiudth, Justice of the Peace in Marshall, to
make the following correction of an article
that appeared in yesterday's Enquirer ,
beaded “Trouble In Alabama.” He says,
it is incorrect in every statement wherein
he is concerned, except one.
“In the first place he Is not BallllT Smith;
and in the second place Capt. Thos. Slade
is not the overseer of the road, but the;
overseer’* name'hi Geo. W. Doles. In the
third place Mr. Copeland did not remon
strate with Mr. Smith in regard to the
nigger, Joshua Washington, but Mr. Cope
land and Mr. Smith did have a fight
growing out of an entirely different
tlffmf. In the fourth place the nigger was
not locked up with Copeland. In the fifth
place, there is no suit entered against Mr.
Smith by Judge Chilton, or anyone else, on
account of the negro. In the sixth place,
he pronounces as a direct and wanton in
version of the truth ‘that tho accused par
ties Immediately went to the plantation
and asked for the negro, who, on spying
them, jumped out of the window and ran
into tho woods. Ho was fired upon by the
pursuing parties.’
“‘Mr. Eason was the Justice and Mr.
Jones was the bailiff, and they furnish the
following correct statement of the diffi
culty :
“Goo. W. Doles, overseer of road, re
turned Joshua Washington os a defaulter
before B. M. Smith, J. P. Judgment by
default, afterwards judgement made ab
solute, Execution Issued and placed in Win.
Jones’ (the bailiff,) hands, and by him
levied on an ox and cart. Immediately
after the levy by said bailiff, while B. M.
Smith, Justice# Ac., was engaged with
Daniel Copeland, who was under the in
fluence of liquor, Joshua Washington stole
from BuiUff Jones the proficrty levied on
and Carried It off,‘but was overtaken, the
property brought back, Ac.; whereupon
said BallllT went be fore W. O. Eason, N. P.,
and obtained a warrant for Washington’s
arrest. He was arrested, tried and con
victed, and made Ills escape from tho offi
cer. Suit has boon entered against Mr.
Eason.’
“Mr. Eason and Mr. Smith bothadcsire
us to state that they believe the man who
reported tills to the Enquirer (X). I. Hollar, )
did it maliciously and with a view to In
jure them. Keller is tho man who pre
tends to own the plantation where the ne
gro, tho Hon. Joshua Washington, Esq.,
Ac., resides.
“Mr. Kellar states ho knows nothing of
the ro|>ort, but that tho Local Editor of the
Enquirer got it up. Mr. Smith says that
he does not believe this statement of Hol
lar.”
Titlbtitton
The commencement exorcises of Lo Vert
Female College have just dosed. Those
who attended report that they wore very
pleasant. The sermon was preached by
Rev. J. O. Branch, of St. Paul Church, ami
is said to have been one of his finest efforts.
Mr. Branch has attained a high place In
his church, nud is considered one of the
ablest Methodist preachers in Georgia.
The readings of the various classes of
the college wore line. Tho original compo
sitions were marked by originality and
brevity, two qualities that are rare at fe
male commencements. Homo of the com
positions of tho graduating classes are
said to have been extraordinary.
Tho annual address was delivered by A.
H. Oox, Esq., of La Grange, and is report
oil as a line effort. Mr. Cox is one of the
rising young men of the State.
During the past.term the college Ims
been in a flourishing condition; the attend
ance has been good, and the proficiency
displayed by the pupils has been most en
couraging. The people of Talbotton seem
to feel an interest mid a pride in the suc
cess of tho college, and they entertain
hopes that it will constantly Increase in
popularity and improve in its facilities for
the liberal education of young ladies.
There Is no reason why it cannot be made
as good os any female college, if tho peo
ple will contribute the money that Is nec
essary to make It so. Without this no in
stitution can succeed. Talbot county is
one of the richest in the State, and if the
citizens could be made to feel fully aware
or the importance of a llrst-closs educa
tional institution, they would contribute
liberally to its establishment and mainte
nance.
Kuonomlcnl Mtumitcment.
The report of Superintendent W. L.
Olark, made at tho meeting of tho stock
holders of tho Mobile and Girard Rail
road? shows that the road has been man
aged most economically during the past
year. The very largo saving in expenses
amounted to over $16,000 for the year.
Every unnecessary expense was cut off.
and tharoad was managed with the least
possiblo cost. Tho schedules have boon so
arranged as to make the trains very con
venient to all who wished to come to Co
lumbus, and very good accommodations
jhave been afforded. The Mobile and Gi
■rard Railroad has been fortunate in hav
ing such a Superintendent as Mr. Clark.
Ho has done all in his power for the suc
cess of tho road, and his management of it
has been line.
Mr. J. M. Frazer, the Treasurer of the
road, has given universal satisfaction dur
ing ids term of office.
All who havenotioed the affairs of the
road, and feel Interested therein, will ap
prove the action of the Directors in re
electing these gentlemen to their respect
ive offices. They could not be ill led by
better or more efficient men.

PROSPERITY BBT Ult NINO AGAIN !
Buena Vista, Oa., July (J, 1873.
Mr. Editor : In company with “Cousin
Billy” and about a dozen other good peo
ple, who went from Marion county to the
district meetings, I left Butler Monday
morning before sun up for Tazewell, eigh
teen miles away. It was cloudy, and wo
moved brisky along with nothing to vary
the monotony of piny woods travel save a
joke on a lady friend who, tho night be
fore, attempted to get into a strong man’s
buggy, saying, “Are you ready V* He re
plied, “Yea, Betty.” She discovered her
mistake, and with the unconstitutional
modesty of a country girl retired from
the scene. But her friend saw her, and
the next morning, with some embellßh
rrient, told it on her. We laughed at her,
and gave her tho worst case of “dry
grins,” as tho college boys uall it, we ever
saw. Ever and anop as wo passed along
someone would cry out, “Are you ready V"
Another one would answer, “Yes, Betty.”
And we had fun. Finally our little friend
rallied and would reply, woman iike, to
the question, “yes; send the boys along,
lam ready.” Noble hearted girl, one of
these days she avill make some man a
good wife.
About eight miles from Butler our little
cousin was token sick. The kind-hearted
Dr. H., of TuzoWell noble fellow, loved
by the people, and successful as a physi
cian being along, gave her some medi
cine, which with a short rest, at the Dan
iel farm, soon restored her. I want to tell
you what happened here. Cousin Billy and
thegirls got out and went to the gab*, and
hailed. The house was opeq and the
kitchen too. Ho hqlled again, when we
sa w a little girl and her mother, dressed in
homespun, with bronzed faces and hands,
showing that they wore not afraid or
shamed of labor, coming from the truck
patch. When they came up all bowed, and
Cousin Billy said: “Madam, T have a sick
child and want to stop and let her rest.”
Says she. “Certainly, sir; open tho gab*
and walk In.” The girls go in. Cousin
Billy and I walk into the farm. And such
a farm ! It is an oasis in the pinoy woods.
About two-thirds planted in corn, and tin*
corn fine. Let mo explain. I mean by fine
corn tiiat the stand is good, stalk large
and tall, color black, as the farmers say,
with one b> two silks i>er stalk. Cotton is
promising. I call it thus, for I know from
sad experience how fickle the cotton plant
is, even In four days changing hope into
despair. Sugar cane, ground peas, pota
toes, are all fine. Fruit is not ripe, but the
trees are full, and there will soon lx; an
abundance.
Wo returned to the house, and the good
lady informed us she has Ij*oii on this
farm for twenty-five years, and never
bought any meat or syrup or corn, except
in MB-, the dry year. Wo start and Cousin
B. thanks her for her kindness, when she
urges us to stay ail day and night bs>-
in an open and frank manner known
only to country women she remarking,
“Wo have enough to feed you and
your horses bx>." And we believe site
meant it and would do what she said. As
an evidence she could feed us, I counted
eight yellow-legged chickens big enough
b) crow.
Cousin B. is a noble follow, and a hunter,
too; and many times has ho blown his
hunter’s horn on these hills for his clogs,
which have mu away after the; fx or
tleor, with which tho country abound. lie
is well acquainted wit!* this country, and
says there arc many farms hero just as
good as tho Daniel. These people arc
small farmers, do (heir work, have plenty
anrl live at homo. 'Their credit is good, ns
the list in Columbus will show. Many
springs abound, among which are us good
mineral as arc in the Stale. These form
creeks of clear water, from the rapidity
of which I judge there is a water power
here, if utilized, would tarn many thou
sand spindles. S. W. it. It. is near by. Land
is cheap, for last June in Buena Vista a lot
of thirty acre* was sold for $5. It is as
healthy as any place in tho work!. Tho
creeks have no swamps. We passed a
place where the man had been living for
more than twenty years and had fifteen
girls, and wo saw two rosy cheeked boys.
Indeed, Mr. Editor, this is the place for
men of enterprise to come to from foreign
lands to find a home, for hero the vine,
the poach, the apple and thy* pear flourish,
and we are now persuaded that we only
need men of energy to develop the land
and make it a flourishing country. Where
I once thought nothing could live, save a
salamander or ft gopher, is now a good
country. More anon. Luke.

Evidence of Hurd Timet*.
Some of our merchants speak of the
very small amount of trading done by the
crowd that came up from Alabama on the
Mobile A* Girard Railroad on Wednesday.
One gentleman vent ures to assert that the
total amount spent in the city, by strang
ers, did not exceed fifty dollars. This is a
sad fact, but the people are not to be
blamed for it. They did not have the
money to spend. They, iike many ot hers,
have felt the effects of the hard times, and
their not spending large sums in the city
was not the result of a want of iiieUnatior*
to do so. If they had had the money our
merchants would have gotten it. In the
Fall, if tho Alabama farmers realize the
hopes they have put on their crops, there
will not be tiny complaint that they come
to Columbus and do not spend their
money. They will have plenty of it then,
and Columbus is sure to got her share. It
pays the farmers to trade here and it pays
our merchants to have them do so. All
are pleased.

Ruther Heavy.
Since the order of the city authorities to
all owners of dogs that if thoy wish to
consult tho safety of their pots thoy must
put the bad go of safety on them, almost
every owner of a gocxl dog has bad god
him and now feels safe. Tho badges are
made of brass and are somewhat like a
railroad baggage check. They are sus
pended to tiie nock of tho dog by an iron
chain.
Ail the badges are inudo tho sumo size.
This works somewhat of hardship on ex
ceedingly small dogs. It looks unjust to
see a little terrier, not much bigger than
your fist, tugging along with the same
burden as a giant bull dog. There ought
to be some sort of proportion between the
dog and tho badge. Terriers are some-,
times very fastidious and tender, and
soemingly small burdens annoy them
very much. The badges used by the city
are rath*rlarge and heavy for these little
animals. Smaller ones would serve all
necessary purposes and Im; much more
pleasant and convenient.
One or two gentlemen who have fine
terriers think the badges too heavy and
have determined to trim them down.
Therefore they hope that if the police
men gee dogs with rather small badges on
that they will not determine that they are
not the lawful bad£<*s of tho city. An ex
amination will show that it is the original
badge trimmed down to a size that will
conduce tie* comfort and convenience of
the fastidious little wearer.
Illicit 111*1 Illerl***.
Alabama bids fair to rival North Geor
gia In her fame for Illicit distilleries. The
revenue collectors have been making
havoc among the breakers of that Jaw,
which forbids a man to make whiskey and
not let anybody know anything about it.
It is really remarkable how many illicit
distilleries there are in various parts of
tho country. It became* so in Northeast
Georgia, a year or two since, that every
old dry well and every corner sufficiently
: concealed in the mountains was a labora
tory in which tho “fire-water” was dis
tilled. United States soldiers and revenue
officers broke up all this little fun, and
since that time they have boon trying their
hands on tho offenders in Alabama. Some
of UiV* 'plain old farmers, who are not ac
quainted with the general policy of the
Government, think it “durnod strange”
that a fellow can’t bo allowed to make just
as much “corn unrectifiod” as he wants.
If this way of hauling up the poor dis
tillers for punishment is pursued much
longer, the naughty practice will have to
cease, anti all who will drink will have to
drink taxed whiskey.
Fl*h In Our River.
What Ims become of the man who cre
ated such a sensation, a year or two ago,
by his proposition to stock all the princi
pal rivers in the country with the finest
kind of fish? The plan has been tried on
several streams and has been found to
work admirably. If a river is stocked,
and the fish protected for a little while,
they will breed so rapidly that no amount
of fishermen can effectually diminish tho
supply. It seems that our river could very
: easily be stocked with the finest fish with
very little cost and trouble. We have plen
ty of cat fish and other inferior varieties
now. If we could only get an abundance
of trout and shad our market could lx*
supplied with something good to eat at a
very low price. To many of the poor peo
ple the fish now in the river afford sub
sistence. If it was well stocked many
more of them could easily make a good,
honest living.

is much complaint of the dullness of the

Gentlemen—You will please ship us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
iwtter satisfaction than any article we
sell. We have been selling 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 twenty-six years old, when
she was marrh*l. Iter husband lived two
years and died, fcihe continued in bad
health; in fact, she has never been what
a woman ought to be. A few months
after the death of her husband she sitw
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 gri
nds 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
three dollars, when she hail tried several
physicians and spent a great deal of
money without any benefit. Wishing you
great success with your valuable reme
dies, we are, resixctfully yours, etc.,

MALARIA!

ten. :d, and the keenest point of a lancet dipped
in ft and drawn gently mi the. arm, ho a? not to
draw the blood, will ho Impregnate and change
the eutire system as to prevent the party hw vac
cinated from taking the most loathsome-of dis
eases (small pox) for au eutire life; again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptun tree will change an unin
habitable malarial district into u healthy, salu
brious clime, by himply absorbing from the at
mosphere tho poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralise and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity ?
Wo claim that there is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it, anil applied it, and proved
it in our Anti-malarial or Euchyxnial Kelt—and
that persons who w ill wear this Kelt may Inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear of
having any diseases arising from malaria ; such u
('hills and Fever. Billions or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, JAndiee, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids. and that it will cure all the above <lin
eaaes, except the worst cases of Billions and Yel
low Fever.
This is trailed an Auti-maiuriai or
Belt, as it corrects the humors of the oody ana
produces a healthy action, invigorating the sys
tem, and thus enabling it to per oftm its various
duties without fearing the effect* of malaria in
the least.
It has been tried in thousands of cases without
a failure.
