Wo are old-fashioned, and haven’t got Water Works, nor paved streets, nor one sided houses, nor a groat many other things that other cities have and think essential; but wo have our characters among us, probably in larger proportion than in those great masses of humanity like Pekin —and they are ours. They don’t belong to the world ut large and humanity in general, like Shakespeare and Martin Luther. There Is a great charm In owner ship, and we claim an exclusive right to these, our Baritlos. Our lirst Portrait doesn't suspect him self to be in any way distinguishable from the great mass of ids fellow beings, and would bo astonished out of his breath if you were to toll him ho was a Knight. But he is. Does not Knighthood consist in succoring the helpless, relieving the dis tressed—in kindly thoughts and actions for “the poor that cried, and the fatherless that hud none to help him” ? “The bless ings of him that was ready to perish came upon him, and ho causes the widow’s heart to leap for joy.” Is he rich ? They call him a poor man; he receives a small sal ary, wears plain clothes, Is as simple in his tastes us Lamartine’s stone mason; but the Fairies, or some other beneficent powers, endow him with inexhaustible fa cilities for finding whatever any body needs, from a tooth-pick to a steam en gine. He has the most inconsistent ap preciation of the love of luxury In other people, with all his simplicity and hermit like habits. Thinks himself very common place, uud will get off in an hour’s conver sation the best witticisms and epigrams that you’ll hear in a week’s travel. Thinks himself a terror to children; it is a pleas ant thing to see them, of all ages, sexes and conditions, tease him, laugh at him, call him nicknames, and borrow nickels. I heard someone sav, as he passed, the other day, "Heaven bless his unremitting, unostentatious and timely kindnesses to me!” “Yes!” was the response; “he has dried many tears, hushed many an anx ious sigh besides your own, in this community, that none- not even himself-- will ever know.” Is he not a Knight? JiM Dense says that Tommie, the “Bus Man,” who reported for his mill, was down to Ids pond to take a bath, and after a hard scrubbing* he found under the first coat of accumulated dust, two paper colars and an undershirt. Tommie, try a larger pond. Vacation. Rev. J. W. Hunter, pastor of Trinity Church, left tho city yesterday for New York, Where he goes to enjoy a few weeks vacation tendered! him by his church.

Saturday night about eleven o'clock Mr. Hal Chapman discovered the house in which he was living to bo on fire. He dis covered tijo lire to have caught tb<* dwell ing from tho kitchen, that adjoins the house. Everything in the house was con sumed except a few pieces of furniture. Mr. Chapman lost all of his personal ef fects, while liia wife lost every article of. dress she possessed. She soon found shel ter at Mr. Frank Redd’s, who lives very near. Mr. Chapman rented the house and plantation from OoL Barden, and had moved there last January. He says he cannot account for the fire upon any other reasonable hypothesis than that it was set on fire. There hod boon no fire in the kitchen during tho latter part of tin* day, and no fire in the house. While he has no enemies, lie is satisfied some ono fired his house. Tho house was entirely consumed. The loss to Col. Barden is about live hun dred dollars. Mr. Chapman loses about three hundred dollars in furniture, money and clothing. First Buie r Cotton for ttnnnnah. On Saturday the first bale of cotton of the new Georgia crop was received in Ha vannah bv Messrs. J. W. Luthrop A Cos., consigned by Mr. J. W. Staten, or Staten villo, Echols county, on the Florida Branch Railroad, and was displayed in front of the Cotton Exchange. This is six days earlier than tho first Georgia bale of last season, which wos shipped by Mr. Staten to the same firm, and was received here >n the Gtli of August. This bale weighed •H 5 pounds, and was sold at 21 cents. That received on Saturday whs offered at auc tion, out was subsequently withdrawn without, sale. As will be seen by tho following record, which we present as a matter of interest ami reference, the bale received on Satur iay is ahead of any received at Havaunah within the past five years. In 18*2, a Florida bale was received on tho 31st of Inly, and the following day a Georgia bale was received. The record is as follows: 1870 -August 7th, Georgia growth, weight 510 pounds, sold at 40 cents. 1871 -August sth. Florida growth, weight 17 pounds, and sold at 30 cents. August nth, Georgia growth, weight 436 pounds, sold atß2j a cents. 1872 31st, Florida growth, weight tt)6 pounds, sold at 25*4 cents. A ujgu&t Ist. Georgia growth, weight 633 pounds, sold vt 20% cents. 1873- August Bth, Georgia growth, weight 510 pounds, sold at 27 cents. Au gust 10th, Florida growth, weight SOU ,>ounds, sold at 21 cents. 1874 August oth, Georgia growth, weight 545 pounds, sold at 21 cents. 1876—July 31st, Georgia growth, weight —, not, sold. Georgia has the credit of sending the Irst bale to Savannah in 1870, 1873, 1874. 1875. Florida in 1871 and 1872. The above, from tho Nciph, shows that Georgia cotton is beginning to come in sooner tills year than it has for several years past. With the exception of 1872 a >nlo has not boon recovered so early in six years. It will not be long before tho first bale joiues into Columbus. The probabilities ire that it will come from Florida. First bales do not command the prices here that they do in Savannah. The The citizens will approve the action of the council in granting the petition of mr military companies, asking for the right to construct a battery on the South Jommons near Reich’s garden. The peti tion indicates that t he companies are tak ing more than former interest in target shooting, and evidences a desire to attain % higher degree of proficiency and skill. A battery nt the point, named will uls be the source of great convenience to the oompauics, affording them facili ties for target practice, without forcing them to go a considerable distance from the city. The battery will be so construct ed as to render even the wildest shooting harmless. As soon as the permission of the Com missioners of Commons is obtained we suppose the battery will be matte. As Alderman Jordan said in presenting tho petition, “title shooting has now be come a national sport, and our soldiery ought to practice it.” Let us keep up with the nation.

It Is customary In several cities in Geor gia and In many elsewhere, for the Young Men’s Christian Association to prepare a course of lectures for every winter, and to furnish each of these cities with the moans of solid literary enjoyment. The speakers selected are usually men of wide reputa tion and acknowledged ability -men whom it Is a pleasure ami a profit to hoar, and who attract audiences in communi ties not remarkable for literary attain ment. Is it probable that the Young Men’s Christian Association here could carryout this scheme for the coming winter? Tho lectures could be obtained, for other asso ciations In the State will Induce distin guished speakers to come and lecture for them, and when once In the State they could l>e gotten to any point In it. There would lie no difficulty about obtaining a number of able and distinguished speak ers. The only question is, would it pay? Would the city furnish audiences large enough to defray necessarily large ex penses. It has often been said that the Southern people do not appreciate lectures, and it is really time that often slim houses greet speakers whoso fame and whose talent should entitle them to an enthusiastic re ception. This is by no means always the euso, and often when it does happen it can be accounted for on other grounds than a want of appreciation. Prices are often put so high that only the wealthy can hear what many a poor rnan who is compelled to stay away longs to enjoy. In one or two cities in the State last, winter lectures were furnished by library associations, oa wall as Christian associations, and they were largely at tended. In some cases the pecuniary success of the enterprise was quite encouraging, while there seems not to have been any loss by any association that undertook the plan. There la a large class of our people who would like very much to l>e afforded the opportunity of enjoying a set of fine lec tures next winter. With a judicious selec tion of speakers and a proper arrange ment of prices, it Is probable tliat good audiences could be obtained. It is suggested that the Young Men’s Christian Association assume the manage ment of the lectures, as unfortunately we have no literary society or library asso cidtion. Horae association must manage the course of lectures. It is at least worth the inquiry of the body referred to wheth er the plan of having a course of half a iozen l<H*.turcß for the winter will succeed, ft is possible that it might be mode a source of pecuniary profit; surely tlje ex penses incident from various causes could be defrayed. As wo said before, many of our people would be happy to enjoy the pleasure of a set of fine lectures for the winter, and the literary taste and culture of our people might bo wonderfully bonefitted thereby.

It Is very common to hear merchants and others speak of the brightening pros pects afforded by a glance into the next six months or two. They expect trade to begin to revive about tho middle of Sep tember, and from that time on the benefi cial effects of t he incoming crops are looked for. Great hopes are based on the coming winter. Many a man long oppressed with a burden of debt and care thinks the load is about to bo lifted. Many a dreamer of fortune thinks he is now nearing the reali zation of all that he has dreamed. Many a wild speculator is ready to launch into the busy tide of active trade. Great tilings are bound to happen this winter. There will be many a disappointment. Proje rouo.

Ho re ported that crops in his county have had just enough rain, and if it rains no more in a few days that the result will be most iK'uetlcial to all the farmers.

If water spilled on the iloor remains a long time, it Is said to l*o a fin© sign of rain. August is tempting us by pleasant tem perature. Take it all in all, it is tho hard est mouth in tho year to “worry through.” Every man you scxj wending his way home to his family at night, carries his chunk of ico dangling at his side. Can’t we have some more church festi vals. The interval is unusually long. Every man in town is shooting for that live dollars at tho gallery near this office. There is a constant ringing going on there. Yesterday was a lively (lay in Alabama. The Sheriff sold out the Montgomery street railroad Monday. It seems that the people would patronize such an Insti tution, in n city whore the ground is said to lie “like unto a heated oven.” The Atlanta C bnntituiion has a hand some new head, which sets it off beauti fully. Every city in the South is beginning to ask for a Confederate monument. In a few years one will expect to find a monu ment whenever he visits a Southern city of any importance. Street boys have a very naughty prac tice of throwing watermelon rinds, which often strike people at whom they are not aimed. The police have jerked up some of those offenders, and they will get others il the practice is not stopped. A woman traveling with seven small children and no assistance was a spectacle presented at the I’nion Depot the other day. She had a sort of energetic jerk about her, tiiat plainly indicated an abili ty to takocaro of herself and her numer ous dependents. Expressmen and draymen say times are surely dull. The passengers on a train on tho West ern and Atlantic Road put a negro of! near Dalton the other night. He came with his love in the ladies’ car and refused to leave. The passengers took charge ol the train and, stopping it in the woods, deposited tho uncompromising hero in darkness and gloom. They won’t allow men to sit out In front of hotels in Atlanta, and there is great In dignation in certain classes. They have so many new houses in At lanta that they are not particular how they treat them. The GunstUution says : “Dirt will bo to-morrow on Torino Brown’s new residence.” Carlyle recommends, “Make yourself an honest man and then you may be sure that there is one rascal less in tho world.” Clara Morris owns, pete, loves, and weeps over thirteen little dogs, any one of which would not sell for fifty cents at an j Alabama auction.

Several little tornadoes havo recently passed through several counties in the Stab', but no considerable damage was done. Several Tennessee papers are in mourn ing for tho death of Andrew Johnson. We venture the assertion that not a city in the United States the size of Columbus is without a brass band. This is not a complaint. Revenue officers are seizing tobacco by the wholesale in many parte of the coun try. They seem to have let whiskey alone for u while. There are not nearly as many people at the springs North or South as there were this time last year. Spinner, after handling hundreds of mil lions, comes out $2 ahead. Frame that bill, General, and hang it up for your pos j terity to be proud of. During those long, hot days a brick building becomes so heated that it requires about half tho night to get it cool. It is a noticeable fact that the men who advertise most liberally complain the least of hard times. if you want to win a darkey’s undying gratitude present him with a “ ’scursion ticket.” Fruit is cheap enough for even poor men to enjoy. Fine grapes now sell at the market for leu cents a pound. Peaches, watermelons and other fruit are offered at very low prices. Chicken lighting is popular in ono or two of tho obscure parts of the city. There seems to be groat sympathy in America fur the French sufferers from the recent overflows of the Garonue and other rivers. The little busy boa is now losing the re sults of the labors of many a “shining hour.” Tho quality of Columbus beef is said to bo improving.

Brad field A Cos.: 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 better satisfaction than any article we sell. We have been sidling it since 1868, aud 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 be. A lew 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 thro? dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without any benefit. Wishing you 3reat success with your valuable reme ies, we are, respectfully yours, etc., W. Root A Sons. ap23 3m "THE LOST CAUSE," i MAGNIFICENT Picture 14x1ft inches iu size.

TESTIMONIALS. s Petersburg, Va., Jau. 20th, 1875. John L. Jordan. Esq.—Dear Sir: Ho well pleased am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes tify 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. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar tyr to the most malignant ami persistent neural gic torture, without being able t<> find any relief except from your preparation. Hbe was relieved by the second dose as per directions, and has not ha 1 a return of it for two months. To some 1 may seem strangely sanguine about your medi cine, but I have a right to be ao. It is not rea sonable to suppose this malignant malady won id have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for 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 of the best testimony man can ever have—experience. Vary truly yours. JAMES T. TOSH. CoLOfßrs, January 16,1875. Mr .Jordan: —l take great pleasure in recom mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, has produced a moat wonderful relief in one 01 the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter ever has had. Bho 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 appareutly of permanent benefit. Yaurs, with respect, MRS. L. L NORMAN. JOH Y 1.. JORDAX, Apothecary. No. 198 Broad Street.
