Two ('Upping*. “This Is the only paper in Columbus that receives the Associated Press dis patclies.”—.Enquirer-Sun. The Southern branch of the “associtod press” telegraphic service is a first class fraud and nuisance. If wo know of any stronger words we would apply thorn to it, and then feel that we had boon expres sionless. We owe our readers an apology for the lack of certain Interesting news this week. We relied on the agents of the associated press to send it, and they fail ed to carry out their contract, although they demand heavy tolls from us with cheerful regularity every week. Owing to the fear that the concern would prove re creant to its contract in the facts connot ed with the death and burial of the lost of the ex-presidents, wo wero i forced to send a reporter two hundred and fifty miles to do for us its work. We wore not mistaken. Andrew Johnson was buried on Tuesday at Green ville, witli imposing ceremonies, and yet not a line was sent us concerning the event by the incompetent agents of the Associ ated fraud. On Monday important elections were held in Texas and Kentucky, but not a word was received about them that night. Whole pages of nows from Herzogovinia were, however, thrown upon us! On Tues day a closely con tested and intensely in teresting election was held in Alabama— an election that decided the fate of tiiat commonwealth for many years to come. Up to this writing the Press fraud has not given us a line on the subject, but we have a full report from Herzogovinia. We are tired of paying for what we do not get. Our bills for specials are made enormous through the failure of the fraud and monopoly to supply us with interest ing nows. We are tired, also, of making complaints that are not heeded. We now, once for all, give Mr. Simonton notice that wo will not longer submit to such glaring and damaging omissions. The press of the South must have the news of the day. If Mr. BirnontOD cannot employ men who have seuso enough to send it, wo must look to a source that can and will. Atlanta CbntiUtut ion. We were furnished with all the news the Constitution complains of not getting. The Southern and Atlantic Line kept us post ed, and perhaps if our friends wero to try the same source they would have loss fre quent occasions for such complaints as the above. Wo think every man knows his business best, and therefore only ask those who want to advertise to do so in the Daily Times. It is read by the people that trade in Columbus. Compliment t <'upt. Winter. The Montgomery Advertiser says that Captain John Garto Winter, of the Greys, was called on by a committee from bis company at his office, Thursday afternoon, and escorted to the armory. Ho was then presented by Lieut. Gilmer in the name of the company, with a beautiful sword. The handle is made of pearl. The blade is ele gantly figured and bears his name in the centre. The scabbard is ‘made of nickle, brass and gold, and bears the following inscription: “Presented to Capt. John Gano Winter, by the Montgomery Greys, August, 1875.” There is an extra scabbard for fatigue service, and a belt each for fa tigue and dress uniform. Tho sword is a beautiful one and was most worthily be stowed upon a worthy gentleman and officer. Capt. Winter received the sword and returned Ids thanks for the evidence of good will which It manifested. Xen Plan. Mr. J. 15. Shipp, the live agent of the Singer sewing machine in this city, has adopted anew method of bringing ids ma chine before tho notice of the public. In stead of calling on ladies at all iiours of tho day and trying to force tho machine upon them, whether they want it or not, and disturbing them in various ways, he has gotten up some handsome cards which he will send to each residence in the city, and which set forth tho claims of tin* Singer to patronage. The machine is too well known and its fame is too (irmly es tablished to render the arts commonly used necessary. Tho method adopted is decidedly in bettor taste and will prove igreoablo to the people. Mr. Shipp is looking well after tho interest of his ma chine here, and in ids hands tho Singer will become more popular Uian ever. Rp|urnr<l Home. Wo wore pionsod bo moot yestorday Mr. James H. Mobley, son of Mr. James M. Mobley, of Harris county, who has just graduated at tho University of Georgia. His course there reflected honor on him self, and ho goes out Into tho world leav ing a good record behind him and with a bright future before. Such young men were never more needed in the country than now. Harris county has reason to bo proud of her young son, and it is to be hoped that he will devote the education he has received to the noblest ends. Mr. Carlisle Terry, son of Dr. Terry, of this city, also graduated at the Univer sity with distinction, bearing off tiro •hemlstry modal. He has had a success ful course at the University and bore ofT ao small portion of Commencement hon ors. He has not yet returned. We con gratulate Mr. Terry on his success and on -ho honor he has reflected upon Columbus. The Commencement Is said to have been >ne of the best evor known at tho Univer sity. Large crowds were in attendance, rhe speeches of tho boys wore good and the addresses tine. The University is lourishing and promises well for the fu ture. Advertise your business in the Daily ITmks. It is road by the trading popula tion of tho city and country. Ilian ii>oln.t‘d Expeetnllt.il.. The woman and child who camo up with i party of six from below Euthula, Ala., seeking: employment, has been returned co her homo Uy tho Mayor. She deserted the Hospital on Monday afternoon, giving as a reason, it was not sufficiently gay for v person desiring company, tin coming up into tlie city she requested the Mayot te supply her with means sufficient to get her a boarding room, where site could en joy herself more pleasantly, and have hers and iter child’s disorders corrected by the City Physician. Tito Mayor didn't see St and gave her passage by boat down the Chattahoochee. A few more such returns of parties cotfting in to “sponge" on the charities of the city and county, will make it much more agreeable to the tax-payers of Muscogee. Keep the ball in motion, Mr. Mayor, until we are rid of floating paupers from other counties. The most experienced pronounce adver tising the sure read to success. Advertise judiciously by patronizing the Daily Times. The largest and prettiest selection of Transfer Flowers in the city, is at feb!4 dswtf J. J. Wim-ri-K's. COLUMBUS FEMALE COLLEGE. GOOD PROSPECTS. The first session of the Columbus Fe male College will begin on the first Mon day in October. Since the institution has become a fixed certainty, the chances for its success have greatly improved. The prospects for a very flattering opening now encourage the friends of the College, and its success is becoming more certain every day. It is said that soverai gentlemen will surely move to tho city from (Different parts of Southwest Georgia and Alabama to enjoy the educational advantages which Columbus will then bo able to afford. It will thus be seen that the benefits of the institution will begin at an early day. Af ter it goes into successful operation there will doubtless be many who will be glad to avail themselves of tho superior ad vantages of Columbus as a place f f resi dence. The Professorships in tho College which remain yet vacant will bo filled by gentle men fully able and competent Tho insti tution will be presented for the patronage of the public with every advantage, and it is believed that it will prosper and ffouriah. The benefits which a well estab lished institution of learning will bestow upon the city where it is situated can only be appreciated when they are experienced. Macon has spent over $200,000 on her colleges, and she lias not lost by the in vestment. She has three institutions, all flourishing and well attended, and they constitute one of her very greatest attrac tions. Two hundred thousand dollars could not have been better invested. Ma con is proud of her colleges, and she lias reason to bo proud of them. Chi'upi'i- Kents. The prospect now is that rents will be considerably reduced for the coming year. We hear of a number of business houses who have caused their rents to be lowered, while dwelling houses will rent much cheaper than last year. A number of fam ilies who this year lived in Columbus, pro pose renting or buying property in the suburbs, thus throwing upon tho market a largo number of vacant houses. Rents ought to be cheap in such times as these, yet it is hard upon the landlord to meet the exorbitant taxas and rent his property lower than formerly. Since last season a number of dwelling houses have been erected, which fact causes the decline in the rents of that class. Don’t forget to send an advertisement to the Daily Times for the Sunday edition. K very body then has time to read it. Military < ompaule*. A number of military companies throughout the South have been Invited, or made arrangements to go to the Cen tennial next year. We presume there will be added to the Centennial humbug a prize for the best drilled company in the United States. Wo would like to seo it borne off by a Southern company. Cannot one, or both, of our companies make arrange ments to go? Transportation will iio as cheap as dirt. While on the subject: we are authorita tively Informed that anew military com pany Is in process of formation in tho city, and that it will be composed of men who like to drill and who will endeavor to be a perfect success. We hojie it will succeed, and then we can have a battallion. Nit uwrri. We had ugood rain yesterday about two o’clock, which seems to have extended for several miles around the city. We heard of some farms which were blessed with rain for the first time iu weeks. The rain down the river and over in Alabama seemed to be heavier than it was here. Later in the afternoon a light shower fell. It is not too late for the crops to be much benefittod by rain, and in some parts of the county the farmers say they "can stand a good deal yet.” Xew Aircttf. We learn that the Wheeler and Wilson Manufacturing Company’s business in Columbus will, in the future, be managed by their general agent, Mr. H. C. Turpin, of Virginia, who comes among us highly recommended. Mr. T. is classed as one of tho most sue-; cessful of sewing machine agents, and knows how to manage tho business. We congratulate him on being the agent of so popular a machine, and the company on having such an efficient agent. Don’t you want a fine Watermelon for Sunday’s dinner ? If so Pirrie has the finest and freshest in the market. uuvov uu'i u t in liiv liltli hi/t, North anti South ltullroml. The editor of the Hamilton Visitor has written to Maj. Benj. E. Crane, President of tho Atlanta Chamber of Commerce and a prominent commission merchant in that city, on the subject of extending the North and South Road to Atlanta via Greenville. Maj. Crane roplitxi as follows: “I do not think tho present n good time f o canvass our citv for subscriptions to the road. In the fall you can, with proper, nlort, doubtless get a lair amount here It is of great importance, both to vour seetion and our citizens. 1 will cheerfully extend you all tho aid iu luy power.” There scorns to bo some hope that the people of Atlanta will take an interest in the extension of the road after awhile, and if this interest is strong enough to affect their pocketbooks tho completion of the enterprise is not improbable. Tate Spring*. From private advices, we learn the above Tennessee watering place is to bo sold, after the present season, and that Mr. W. H. Johnson, our postmaster, will bo the purchaser. He makes a number one postmaster, clever, upright and obliging, and if he succeeds half as well in keeping a hotel, ho will become famous. Wo advertise ourselves iff order to in duce people to patronize us. Ought not a merchant to do the same ? An Old Challenge. We wore yesterday shown a rare docu ment, which is now in the possession of a gentleman in this city. It is yellow with ago, and is prized by its owner as a relic of tiio “old chivalric days.” The Richmond Enquirer not long since published a challenge dated 1804, which it was claimed was one of the oldest in exis tence. We give an exact copy of tho curi ous document: “Philadelphia, July 26th, 1763. Sin: After the treat ment I received from you last night. I cannot [Miss it over in silence, and as you bear the character of a gentleman I expect to receive satisfaction as such. You’ll therefore meet me on Sun day morning next at six o'clock, by the Bethlehem house, attended with a gent le man. You’ll please to send an answer by the gentleman who is bearer of this. “I am “Your most humble servant, “JSIIEFTALL SHKFTALL. “To “Mr. Moses Myer.” It is directed on the back to “Mr. Moses Myer, Present; Philadelphia.” The Daily Times is the best advertising medium in this section.

Tho negroes somewhere got hold of a curious idea the other day that a steam boat had blown up somewhere down the river and made a terriblo havoc. Negroes can start the most improbable of rumors, and when once circulated they are univer sally believed by the “bredderin.” The quantity of watermelons now In the market is very large. They arc so cheap that the colored population daily devour them. Everybody is enjoying a feast, and those who get tho stale melons generally enjoy a few days respite from the busy cares of the world. It now costs only a dollar to go from Nashville to Louisville. We would pro ceed about twenty miles down this way on that amount. New York is happy, having reached a million. Her last census gives a popula tion of 1,018,622, an increase of 76,330 slow 1870. A part of this increase is due to the annexation of a portion of Westchester county. Tho actual increase of the city as it was, Is 39,864. fiio two great works yet to be performed by the engineers of the world are the union of the two great oceans across the Isth mus, and tho flooding of Sahara from the Mediterranean. It is said that Philadelphia coal dealers steal $600,000 a year by means of short weight. Sometimes it pays to write. Victor Hugo made over $700,000 by his pen, his plays bringing him $150,000 of this amount. It is estimated by the Liverpool Post that the American Rifle Timm carried off $150,900 from Ireland from bets alone. That comes of being better shots. Lawrence Barrett leaves his summer residence at Cohasset on August 15th, to begin his season’s work. He opens at Vir ginia City, Nevada, where ho is a great favorite, August 23d. After a tour iu the West he will return to his engagement at Booth’s. Thu great revival of Julius Caesar is set down for December 27th. Mr. Barret will be Cassius, K. L. Davenport, Brutus: George liingold, Marc Anthony; F.C. Bangs, Caeca, and F. W. Wood, Julius Cteaar. It is to be feared that we will not have the pleasure of seeing Barrett in Columbus this winter. The theatre-going public of the South will miss him no little. A pint of sweet milk taken before retir ing every night will cover the seronniest bones, and accomplish the desire of all who sigh for flesh. Fine grapes retail on the streets for ten cents a pound, which seems to us cheap enough. Some of the Georgia papers are discour aging the people from contributing finan cially to the Centennial.

Janauschek was forty-five years old lost Tuesday. The veterans of the Third Georgia are revelling in Virginia hospitality. Kites now fly on every street and the' number oi runaways is remarkably small. Eighteen small boys came into this office yesterday for newspapers to make kites.

Ne\v sweet potatoes are the delacacies now. They are rare yet and not very good. It is very poor consolation for an ugly man to say he is not as bad as ho looks. Tennyson’s drama, “Queen Mary," is out, and is sold for $1 50. We regret to learn that Coi. John For syth. of Mobile, is in such bad health that ha cannot attend to his business.

We are happy to state that this remedy gives better satisfaction than any article we sell. We have been selling it since 1808, and witnessed many remarkable cures by it. Among others, there was a lady friend of ours wiio 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 few mouths after the death of her husband she saw your advertisement, and came to our store and bought a bottle of your Khgula 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 tli3 of your Regulator, costing her only three dollars, when she had tned several physicians and epent a great deal of money without any benefit.
