Now Is tho time to repair old mills for
grinding sorghum. There Is nothing bet
tor, or more healthy during hot weather,
and we who have tried it know that it is
invaluable In a household. To farmers
who wish to buy new mills, tlie Columbus
Iron Foundry is the place to get them.
They keep on hand a full supply and of
any si£e desired, and as cheap as can be
bought auy where.

BUHOHED APPOINTBBNT TO StTKEME
B KNL’H.
From a special tclugram from Atlanta II
will be soon that It Is currently rumored,
and generally believed, that tho Hon. M
J. Crawford will receive tho appointment
of Associate Justice of tho Supreme Court
of Georgia, In the placo of Judge McCay,
resigned.
We trust tho report le correct , and that
tho position will 1m tendered "him. He Is
fully competent, und the State wilt lose
nothing of her former prestige in Ilia ap
pointment. We had not hoard tho rurnoi
until tho dispatch disclosed it, and hnneo
do not know that ho will accept it if ten
dered to him. Tho Judiciary of the State
should bo elevated, and no man in our
knowledge is better able to acoompllsli It
than Judge Crawford. He is a model gen
tleman, a good scholar, a fine lawyer, and
will make nn eminent Judge. Ho was,
years ago, Judge of tho Superior Court ol
this county. Wo would dlsliko to losohlm
as a citizen, which would bo necessary
were he appointed and it accepted.
A OHOSIT STUBV.
EXCITEMENT IN FIRST WARD —PURSE IT
AND CAPTURE -WHAT IS IT?-A 'POS
SOM.
The peaceful sleepers of the First Ward,
were startled last night by the loud and
prolonged cries of “Ghost! ghost! catch
’em, kill him, who is dat, whnr he cum
frum," Ac. Tho clan gathered, and tin
pursuit was entered into to good earnest.
Through street and alloy the apparition
was followed, pursuit by an eager crowd
of excited men, women and children.
Most of the men wore in o„ignr chase, tin
women followed swift ufter, and tho chil
dren hung on tho “ragged edge” crying
for fear. The chase was an exciting one,
and lasted for ten minutes. Tho ghost
at last was captured In a gentleman’s
front yard, and In duo time was skinned
and cleaned for tho pot. The ghost turned
out to be a very fine, large sized ’possum
that had roturnod Into tho city from some
neighboring swamp, and was unused to
the wiles of city life. We learn lio was
oagorly devoured by his captors. The
services in tho colored church will be dis
continued until further notice.
Kif’ltrmrnl Extraordinary.
Wo wore about to despair of hearing of
anything to break tho dry monotony of
t.he day, when ail of a endden our ears
were greeted with a low and prolonged
growl. We hurried to the Boone of con
flict, and soon found ourselves in the
presence of a couple of powerful canines,
clenched in the embrace of mortal com
bat. aVo kind friend was present to cr>
out hold! enough! and by tho gentle ra\ s
of tho fickle moon they fought and bled.
There is nil end to all things, and after
awhile a bucket of cold water separated
the combatants. No policeman was near
to dispatch the badgeless cure, and the
conqueror of the fight walked off with a
broad grin upon his dog-like contenance.
| Thus ended the excitement, and after ad
journing to a neighboring saloon to take
an "ice float," wo took our stand upon the
oorner, straining our eyes to view a raid
(?) from Alabama. No Alabamian made
his appearance, the police were still snor
ing upon tho dry-goods boxes, and we
quietly left for homo, to dream over the
excitement of tho day. .Such is life.
A Wedding Almost.
Wo learned from a friend, who knew the
circumstances, that last night we ©am©
near having another wedding. The faith
ful had bought his license, engaged a min
ister, and all was ready to witness Un
happy event, when all of a sudden, and
without the slightest regard for ceremony,
tho excited bridegroom rushed in th*
wodding chamber, and charged his af
fianced witli profligacy and conduct un
becoming the wife of a virtuous violinist
The lady was all indignant, and proposed
to prove her devotion to truth and virtue
by a colored barber. That wiis the “straw
that broke thocamels back,” and our hero
hurriedly left the house, uftor vowing he
would not marry “dat frow.”
Moral—So, two souls with a single
thought did not beat as one, and the gen
tle Miranda was left alone to meditate
on what might have been, had It not
been for that colored barber.
Xe\v from II urt \ I Hr.
Wo have been permitted to sen* a private
letter from Hurtville, Ala., addressed to a
merchant of this city. He says they have
had no rain of any consequence in that
vicinity. On Monday they had a light
shower, but it did no great good. In that
section they need hard rains, and many
of them, in order to make any sort of n
crop. He writes further in his letter, “that
if it does not rain In five days it will take
fifty to one hundred acres to make a bah*
of cotton.”
This indeed is a sad state of affairs, and
we only trust that the writer has over esti
mated tho damage to tho crops. This
season begun with glorious prospects.
We, of tho South, must diversify our
csops, and bo thus enabled to strike good
seasons on some crops. It will not do to
plant all of any one thing, for it takes our
labor in that branch to pay for our needs
in other respects.
Worthy of Support.
Messrs. Ward, Halford and Copeland
called to see us yesterday. These gentle
men nro deaf mutes, the two first being
farmers and the last is a book agent. He
bears with him a certificate from Rev. W.
M. Howell, of Lumpkin, Georgia, certify
ing to his good character and his anxiety
to earn his own living. Our citizens, we
hope, will liberally aid him by subscribing
to ids book. Mp. Copeland was educated
at the Institution'iu Houth Carolina, Mr.
Baiford at Gave Spring, Ga., and Mr.
Ward at Hartford, Conn.

Main YeMerduy.
Yesterday about noon the pity was vis
ited with a refreshing shower It cooled
the atmosphere to a oertain degree*and
for a time made many glad hearts in the
hope that the rains would be general and
effective. For several miles out of the city
we hear the same sprinkle prevailed, but
of not sufficient force to do any amount of
good. Why don’t it rain, and rain hard.
Is the general talk?

‘•THE H V II."
Atlanta, July 27,1875.
Despite our natural prejudices wo are
compelled to marvel (as wo ascribe praise
to her energy) at Atlanta’s wonderful re
cuperative powers. It Is true, however,
Kimball is here, but the sweet spirit of
Uufus sojourns In another land. There
the “developer” has not the hand of thrif
ty “quick and sharp” enterprise in the
pocket of our Commonwealth with which
10 beautify and adorn a town with archi
tecture which would cause tho lone senti
nel at Pompeii of stand aloof an thousand
years In wonder, admiration and amaze
ment.
Yes, ho is here, but ho is not building
Markham’s Hotel to rival tho “Hi" of his
well appointed boarding house. He will
still rido triumphantly up and down his
elevators and enjoy the supreme majestic
pleasure of knowing that Markham and
“Pease and his wife” know but little how
to “keep a hotel.” Markham Is throwing
brick and mortar at the old sight of the
famous Washington* Hall, and when the
last lick is done and tho mason wipeth
away the sweat of his brow, via special
injunction (if our blessed Savior, etc., and
when tho smiling upholsterer (not bool
Brooklyn) shall drive the last tack into the
soft ingrain carpet, and the Turkish divan
shall set equipoised on the softness thereof,
I am told “chocks” will bo cashed at James,
Bank for $150,000, and Markham’s will bo
the best palace of thocuisene deportment
south of the North Pole. •
Speaking of Markham, ho is a two
minute man, brimfull of “money” and
overrunning with enterprise. Ho lias an
orange grove on the Kt. John’s river in
Florida, and Messrs. Hunnicntt k Billing
raths, of this city, are laying fountains
and piping in the same which will cost
him four thousand dollars. If Columbus
only had a Markham! ***** jf
Columbus only had a Markham!
Don’t lot it take your breath away from
you, but over three-quarters of a million of
\ dollars are now required to complete the
building contracts now under way and to
l>e completed by the Ist of October. P. and
G. T. Dodd & Cos., corner Alabama and
Prior streets, are putting up a mam moth
wholesale grocery house, 54x130 foot, Qvo
stories high—cost $50,000. Mr. Wm. A.
Ituwson a four story building alongside
the above; cost $40,000. Benj. I. Wilson,
still by the side of these monsters, a four
story; same cost as Kawson’s. It would
take me a week to describe all the variou
enterprises. It looks like that amount ol
money put into well regulated factories
along tho banks of tho Chattahoochee, and
in our own Columbus, would boa more
profitable investment; and to these mon
ied men I would suggest an inspection ol
Columbus enterprises, her facilities foi
manufacturing, coupled with the cheap
ness (ft her power and other property.
The “Hi” cotton factory Is pushing along
with all tho stock “taken,” and is an as
sured success. Tho water works “work*
but feebly,” and the promise of water is
not yet. A defect is discovered in some ol
the piping, but a worse defect is that thh
“cool arctic” is mineral in its "gushing
flow,” and said mineral is termed “dead
boss” by the boys. It is so offensive that
fish cannot live In it, but I guess the nver
tgo Atlantese can stomach anything sinci
they take in the Ponce do Leon nffiuvia,
which comes immediately from the “dead
hoes” region of Sherman’s old vetenar)
camps. “But," says tlie city physician,
“these water are muchly healthy;” and
l’om Acton, of the Constitution, is held up
as prima facia evidence of its rejuvenating
and recuperative properties. Thomassa>>
it'll act on his liver in l<‘ss than ton min

Mid Ida re say it does, for Tom has carried
his “Constitution” well for the past few
years, and said Constitution's make-up ha:
Heralded a rivalry among tho general
OQmtnonwealth. The city is now getting
up a “ehromo” to give all and each of the
visitors, representing on ono side the

Every day “Old Probabilities” puts tlie

will become of tho people of this country.
They endeavored this year to free them
selves from debt, and to raise their own
supplies, but ere the season had fairly set
in, and fine or ps were In tlie ascendancy,
the drouth set in, and lias well nigh ruined
the farmers, and as a natural consequence
the whole country.
We trust tlio farmers will not be dis
heartened by this bad luck, and that next
year they will still attempt to raise their
own supplies. Had they not tried to do
this this year, and have been in debt for
supplies, this drouth would have been
worse on them than it has been, for be
sides ruining their crops, it must have
left them in debt for supplies. At the hour
of writing rain is falling, and a fine pros
pect for a good rain.
on for (ho Million.
We desire to call the attention of our
merchants, and tho merchants of adjoin
ing towns, to the fact that in Columbus we
have a wholesale oil manufactory. The
principle product of tho factory is kero
sene, which is sold, delivered on board the
oars at this place, for about tho same price
it will cost at the North. By purchasing
from the Columbus Oil Company, you save
freight ,buv good oil, and aid a home en
terprise.
Fine Soup.
Every day at 11 o’clock Charlie Heyman
has prepared a plate of elegant soup, for
anybody that will call and see him. After
soup you can get anything to drink from
an “iee float” to a “straight.” Go there to
day and try the soup. It won’t cost you a

X'o Mayor'* Court.
Tho hot weather seems to occupy the
thoughts of tho lieligerents, und their at
tention seems to have been turned to
peaceful pursuits. Owing to this state of
affairs, the Mayor has not lx**n able to
muster a respectable number in order to
hold court. Tho want of money, and the
peaceful disposition of tho people, has
caused a suspension of police news. We
hope they will bo enabled to provoke a
small sized quarrel, or a slight fisticuff, in
order to assist us in killing time, and giv
ing news. What a relief to the present
monotony would a first class killing or a
second class sensation in financial circles
create? Cannot someone get out an in
junction, or make some sort of a com
plaint? Anything for a little excitement
or a local item. Who is going to bo the
next Mayor? and who will offer their ser
vices as Aldermen? Don’t all speak at
once, but is it not time to canvass the
question? By all means lot us get a good
man, and one that* will “stand for Home.”
Fruit unit Mr lon*.
The city is well supplied with eatables.
Never was fruit so cheap. Money must be
scarce, or people's appetite changed or
been satiated. Which is It? One can get
melons at their own price, and still few arc
sold, compared to the supply on hand.
Need not fear being sick, for if yon should
have a short spell of the fever there arc
numbers of doctors who are offering their
services to the public. So help a man when
sinking; don’t let him keep his water
melons until they spoil. Come to the res
cue, and enjoy yourself. “Sufficient unto
the day is the evil thereof.”
Llvp und AuuUy.
The intense heat may make some peo
ple lazy and indolent, yet we rejoice to see
there are some upon whom it has no effect.
The chain-gang are busily at work, as if
the aun didn’t shine. Our corporation carts
are renovating Broad street opposite the
Rankin House, by hauling dirt and repair
ing the washed places. We would like to
see a big rain in order to settle the loose
dirt afloat, as it would make the work look
much better; not that we need rain. Oh,
no, we don’t need it.
I.IIW.
Business in the departoymt cf justice is
dull. The lawyers are generally doing
nothing, while some few of the more for
tunate are off at the Spring, or traveling
North.
The Supreme Court will shortly begin
its fall session, and briefs will Ije the order
of the day, then the accumulated dust of
summer will be brushed away and tho
lawyer’s library will look clean and attrac
tive.
Cannot someone get up a Justice of the
Peace case to break the spell of the monot
ony that now prevails?

DEDICATED TO THE PARENTS.
Ah! can it bo that thou art dead?
The “pride," tho "idol" of our home.
Shall we ne'er hear thy footstep* tread ?
Or look upon thy proud and boble form ?
Ala*! the fatal knell! He’s dead I
With bitter angtxiah rend our heart*:
Thy lips, now mute, ao lately said
In thy loved choir. I'll take a part.
But ah! too true; he came again;
A host of mourners lore him her*- ;
Within the coAn now he‘* lain.
And sleep* in death upon hi* ‘ bier!"
Ah! lot me raise the cofflu'a lid.
And look upon his marble face;
ilia pulae, now still, which was only thrilled
With vigor of health, ia In death’s embrace.
Could loving heart* have *tayed the hand.
And broke the fetters that bind thee here,
Ono word arise! at my command.
Thy deathly chain* would have rent the air.
But tears, nor prayers, nor loving hearts
Can arouse thoe from thy dreamless uleep;
Cold, * till and calm in death thou art,
’Mid sainted choirs thy voice is heard ao sweet.
His un, alas! has final act,
To arise in a far more glorious clime;
Hi* receding rays atiil linger yet
To brighten our hearts Lorn time to time.
Far away from mortal sight,
We’ve laid kisses in the silent tomb,
As twilight shade* fast deepened into night,
With breaking hearts we left him in it* gloom.
How hard it i* to give thee up.
Our heart* first love; our darling son ?
Oh! Qou, for Christ who dreaded hi* own cup.
Help me to say, "Thy will be done."
Alas! how vaiu are all things here,

Messrs. Bradjicld d' (Jo.:
Gentlemen—You will please ship us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mall. We
are happy to stab* that this remedy gives
better 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 married, ller husland 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 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 has 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 hail tried several
physicians and spent a great deal of!
money without any benefit. Wishing you i
great* success with your valuable rerne- ;
