The following communication from the
city physician was road and received:
Hon. Mayor and Council:
Since the fruit season began there Igis
been a large Increase of sink 111*8-4 ailing
the citizens and city poor from too freely
indulging In unwholesome fruit and veget
ablew.
Numbers of paupers dally arrive in your
city, under the gulso of seeking employ
ment, whose ostensible design is to be
careci for by tho county and city. It would
pay the county and city to return these
paupers to the counties from which they
come, and to give public notice to this et
fect, through the press. The pau
pers to the city aro daily on tho increase.
Which is tho result of your liberal chari
ties, coupled with the prospect of a broader
field for tho exercise of their thieving pro
pensities. This information is furnished
through the colored pM>ple in our midst
who are dally st riving to earn an honest
livelihood and to elevate their race, in
every pauper negro family I visit the story
of desertion by tho husband is told, ami
but for the charities of the city and county
would rot in their households. There is a
class of So-called “niggor doctors” who are
producing incalculable mischief among
the negro paupers, and increasing the
city’s expense through your city physician
by his having to remedy protracted ill
nesses, which otherwise would not have
occur mi.
The venerial disorders among the poor
(white and black) cost the city more than
-half her medical bill. It is no charity to
medicate such, when they exult in your
fostering tho evil. T mention these facts
that you may fully understand why the
medical bills have booh increased over
former years.
I have admitted six cases in the hospital
the present month. Two died of consump
tion, two have Imh-ii discharged, and the
woman and child, from below Kufaula,
admitted on Saturday last, still remain
under treatment. No other cases have
died, but those mentioned as died in the
hospital.
The general health of the city is good,
and in every instance of sickness among
the better class of citizens, it can be traced
to exposure, imprudence iu diet and mode
of lire. Coluaiinis can truly boast la being
one of the healthiest cities iu tho United
Slates, and opens her Inviting doors to all
In quest of health. WM. W. Flkllen,
City Physician.

IXIVCKNITY OF OI OHOIA.
I>R. TUCKER RE-ELJX‘TKI>.
From a telegram to tho T h-graph ami
Mc**enger we lim that Dr. H. 11. Tucker,
the present Chancellor of the State Uni
versity, has been ro-olocted to that posi
tion by tho trustees There was a great
deal of talk as to the probable result of the
election, and no less than half a dozen dis
tinguished men were proposed for the
position. There was considerable opposi
tion to Dr. Tucker.
Professors Hpeer, Rutherford and Wm.
M. Browne, have also been re-elected. The
other elections took place yesterday, and
the result Is not yet known.
Ncholarahlp.
Yesterday we were shown a circular ad
dressed to lion. B. H. Crawford, Senator
for this, tho 24th district, from the Louis
ville Medical College, asking him to ap
point some “poor and deserving young
man” from this district to a beneficiary
scholarship In that institution.
This affords some young man a fine op
portunity to gain a good medical educa
tion, and there will probably be a largo
number of applicants.
All who wish to obtain tho sholarship
should address Senator Crawford at
once.
.. .
Rain.
Wo have hud rain inidiundanc**. It cumc
In quantities on Sunday and Sunday night
and yesterday was decidedly pluvial. The
rains 111 the morning were very hard, and
seem to have been gonegai.
The ground in the city is thoroughly
soaked, and for the present we have plenty
of rain. It is feared that the rains have
now set in, and soon the cry of drouth
will bo exchanged for that of too much
rain. The farmers m some of the neigh
boring counties already liavo plenty, al
though a little more In parts of Museog*o
would bo accept ible. Weather prognosti
cators say tho rains will continue to-day.
They bear the good effect of keeping the
atmosphere cool, and the dust down.
Ortipr*
Yesterday we received a basket of beau
tiful grapes of the Concord variety from
Mr. Nathan Crawn. They were raised at
his vineyard Just over the river. He rais
es very large quantities of these grapes
and they are offered for sale every day in
Columbus by Wood A Bro., A. L. Harri
son, 8. Pirrie and J. L. Trwidaway at the
Narrow.Gaugo Htore.
Mr. Crown will soon begirt to ship large
quantlties of those grapes to several mar
kets. By the latter part of this week he
will have another variety of grapes ripe
and ready for sale.
Otcnm-iicf.
There will be two moons in ,\ugust
this year, one the Ist and the other on
the 30th of the month. This is an unusual
occurrence,*not having taken place before
since about tho year 1258. This will be a
“moony” month and there ought to be an
abundance of sentiment and soft talk.
Traeilcv.
The Columbus Guards will have atargot
practice near the Villa Reich this after
noon at five o’clock.
This would be a good time to begin the
organisation of a Columbus Hi fie Team
Both our military companies could fur
nish a number of gdbtf shots for such an
organization.
Kill*- Team,
Since a prize has been offered for the
best rillo team at the State Fair, most of
the cities in the State seem to have deter
mined to enter tho contest. In several
places teams have been organized and are
preparing for the work at the State Fair.
There is no reason why Columbus should
not be well represented there. Ample ma
terial for a line rifle team can be found in
the city, and if an organization is at once
made and frequent practices hole! t here is
no reason why a team from this city will
not bo the equal of any that appears on
tht* grounds. There are in the city a num
ber of crack Shots who will not be easy to
beat.
A team can be obtained without any dif
ficulty if somebody will Undertake it. It
would 1h? no small honor for Columbus to
bear off the rifle medal from tin* State
Fair.

Why Will Ao* Fine Auuy
WITHOUT A PARALLEL.
The demand for Dr. J. Brad Hold's Fe
male Regulator is beyond precedent in
tho annals of popular remedies. Orders
come in so thick and last that the Propri
etor has, heretofore been unable to Jill
them all. lie is happy to state that ar
rangements are now complete by which
lie is prepared to manufacture Female
Regulator on a scale equal to the emer
gency, and tho public may feel assured
that their wants may now be supplied.
Physicians of high repute are using this
great remedy. 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. 11. Bradlield, Drug
gist. Atlante, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per
bottle by druggists throughout America.
HEARTV. BLOOMING WIDOW.
Marietta, Ga., March 9, 1870.
Mesura. llradJleUl it Cos.:
Gentlemen You will please ship us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mail. We
are happy to stato that this remedy gives
better satisfaction than any article we
sell. We have been selling it since 1808,
ami 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. Her husband lived two
years and died. She continued in bad
health; in fact, she has never been what
a woman ought to bo. 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 ami
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 <>f 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
Sreat success with your valuable reme
ies, we are, respectfully yours, eta*.,

two graves with rude crosses, on one of which

right the calm river and rising moon indicate
peace and rest. The sure, seen between the

entertaining and appropriate reading of every

dictation, contending for principle, and lor the

tion that disgraces the country and threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of kuaves, and seeks no Ikvors from their
supporters*
The markets of every kind and the fashions
are regularly reported.
The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a

make special efforts to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage lu advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the

Jordan's Joyous Julep,
A Specific for Neuralgia.
TESTIMONIALS.
Petf.rkbcbo, Ya., Jan. 20th, 1875.
Johu L. Jordan, Esq.—Dear Sir: So well pleased
am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes
tier 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 the
Julep. Sly wife has for ten (10) years been a mar
tyr to the most malignant and persistent neural
gic torture, without being able to find auy relief
except from your preparation. She was relieved
by the second dose as per directions, aud has not
had a return of it for two months. To some I
may seem strangely sanguine about your medi
cine, but I have a right to be so. It is not rea
sonable to suppose this malignant malady would
have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for
sustaining itself, and that too iu a minute, and
the very minute your medicine was taken. If so. ]
it is s most remarkable, simple coincidence, and :
I prefer giving the credit in your favor of the
best testimony man can ever have—experience. r
Vary truly yours,
JAMES T. TOSH.
Colcmbus, January lfi, 1875.
J fr.Jordan: —l take great pleasure in recom- |
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a most wonderful relief in one o*
the seferest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has had. She has been treated for it by
three skillful physicians, with very little benefit,
and 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, and it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Yurs, with respect,
MRS. L. I. NORMAN.
