As there Is some confusion In regard to numbering the houses of Columbus, we would deem It proper to say a few words to the people In order that they may thor oughly understand It. Parties oomiietlng with us say that we are not numbering correctly- that we have the even numbers on tho wrong side of streets, etc. Connell having granted us authority, and having established base lines, we proceeded to number this city as we have numbered others, by the regular system, namely: In commencing from any hose line to pul even numbers on the Uft, odd ones on the right. Tlilb is the proper way to number the city, and We feel oontldent that Council will not object, usd as we are the author ized party bide the work, we have enough Interest In It to sen It done correctly. If, howevor, any one would prefer to give tholr orders to other parties, they should see that the number Is by the regular sur vey (which number is marked on every gate or fence by us or our agents), or tholr number will not be correct. Rather than See the numbers conflict, we would prefer that they number by our survey. It Is to the Interest of property ownor* to see that the numbers do not conflict- not to ours- It Is Impossible to numlier the city by two different survoys; and os wo have carefully surveyed the city (which is the principal part of the work), we trust that tho people may con tinue to be as liberal in favoring us with orders as they have since we eotmneni'ed the work.

SOUTH & SOtTTH HOAD CROPS, tkv., AC. Greenville, Ga., August G, 1875. luliUrr* JJnUu 'Pirns h: Hinc writing you last, we have found our way ovor Into old Meriwether. A lino from this fine old county may prove of Interest to tho read ers of tho Timeh. In days Konoby Mori wot her ivjunty wo* more intimately connected with your peo ple than at present. The inauguration of railroada and tho numerous upKrowtli of small town aloiiK tholr linos have drawn away the trade that once found it way to Columbus. Tho bulk of tho trade of this oounty now gbes to Griffin, but Thomaaton, LaGrange, Kewnan and Went Point come in for a considerable share. If tho North A South Railroad could bo car ried on to Atlanta via Greenville, all of this trade would again seek Columbus an its nearest outlet. Apropos of this ques tion wo llnd that the good people of this county are anxious to see a consummation of such au event. Meriwether has already subscribed SBO,OOO to the Air Line, but tho charter of tho North & South admits that its route may lead to Atlanta, and in that event this subscrip tion would go for its benefit. This money, we learn, is not in bond form nor corpora tion endorsement, but it is the contribu tion of solid cash by the substantial men of the county, who are anxious fora road Tho Atlanta and Columbus papers should press tho question. They have begun in the right direction. It is true that the State Is overburdened with railroads, but a narrow gauge through this section can not fail to prove a profitable investment The Vindicator, which, by the way, is one of tho best of Georgia weeklies, in its last issue is filled with articles pressing the question of extension. Columbus is not expected to do much at present in a monetary point of view, but they ask her help and co-operation and the support of Muscogee and Harris Coun ties. Wo trust the question will s<x>n take a practical turn and that tho North and South road, now a dead weight to Colum bus, will yet prove of some value. *Tho crops of Meriwether arc fine. They havo suffered somewhat from drought, but during the past week showers have fallen daily. More corn will be made than since tho war. There are about 30,000 acres in cotton. This will make about 5,000 bales. The furmers are In good spir its and exjKHJt a pros{)erous fall. Tho ex cess of the crops is larger In tho lino ol breadstuff's, so that cotton in a majority of cases will bo held os a surplus, Ac., and bring Its own price. We hope such will be tho case. Judge Wuruor, our honored Chief Jus tice, hits his home In this county. He lives with his son-in-law, Mr. A. F. Hill, whoso residence is half a mile from Green ville. Judge Warner has just returned to Atlanta after a vacation of a few weeks. Ho Is seventy-two yejirs old, and his health is very fooblo. Noth ing but his indomitable will carries him through the arduous lubors of the Supreme Court. In a conversation with his brother wo learned that he was very well satislled with his new Associate Judges, Jackson and Hlockley. Wo seldom sex* a copy of the Tjmkh this far up. The Atlanta papers llnd their way hero in numbers. When the railroad roaches this side of the mountains we hope to see a changed state of affairs. Not only will Columbus newspapers circulate freely, but your factory goods, which now first go to Atlanta, and your dry goods and groceries will come directly here. May the day soon come. J. A. E. ('ol(imtiu( 1 uuu Men at Work. On Tuesday last a Young Men’s Chris tian Association was organized in Talbot ton, which promises to be fruitful of much good. Most of the young men in the place have already become allied with it, and seem to throw all tholr energy Into its operations. W. E. Mumford has been chosen President, John A. Clements Vice President, and James E. McNeill Secre tary all good officers. From the following extract from the Standard It will be seen that the young men of tho Christian Association of Colum bus have l>oon hard at work in tho good cause. They are extending its benefits beyond tho city and will, doubtless, ac complish much good. The Young Men’s Christian Association here is the source of great benefit to our young men, and it seems to be endowing them with a desire to spread its blessings: Binee last Sunday our Methodist church here has boon in the midst of a most gra cious outpouring of God’s holy spirit. A committee from the Young Men’s Chris tian Association of Columbus has been among us. The State Executive Cos mi nit tee also hus its representative. Bro. M J. Cofor is with us. He is a noble and zealous worker, and is doing a vast deal for tho Master’s cause. The Columbus committee is composed of Bros. G. E. Thomas, 8. W. McMichael. 8. B. Hatcher and J. A. Kirven. A finer and more zealous crowd of young men can not be found in the Htate. They came into our community and we feel that they have done great good. Our loved Presiding Elder. Rev. J. B. McGohoo, Is with us heart ana soul, work ing night and day. Bro. Knox, our dear pastor, is also laboring. The whole church is aroused, and we know that the Lord will bless us. It is said that there has not been such a meet ing in Talbotton for years. Pray on, brethren, the bh'ssing will surely come. The meetings as held bv these young men have drawn out our whole communi ty and enlisted the interest of all. Similar n<*etings were held at Genova the latter part or last week, and did great good. May tho good work go on, and may numbers of souls be brought into the fold of Christ. €A*<*?!•*■ Auvnit Flower.

Como out this afternoon to tho prayor moetlngof the Young Men’s Christian As sociation and get a glimpse of tho good that organization is doing in the city. It is composed of a fine set of young men, who have the cause thoroughly at heart and who are zealously at work. Tho Atlanta OmsHtutum approves the Idea of having a conrso of lectures for all the cities in Goorgla next winter. If sev eral cities would co-operate distinguished lecturers oould be obtained without much cost, and a source of groat enjoyment could thus bo afforded to all who love in tellectual pleasure. Havo’nt we gotten over August nicely so far? There are yet about twenty-three days, however plenty of time for tlie mercury to rim* to those terriblo heights it occupied a few weeks ago.

The finest rainbow of tho season ap {K*arMl after the little shower Friday af ternoon. The sun was very low, and the beautiful arch stretched across nearly half tho sky. Matrimonial affairs preserve an omin ous quiet. There is too much silence; mischief is brewing. Look out. Buy a European guide book, and you can sit in your room and write most beau tiful letters from over the waters to your fa vorite newspaper. Bo they require these very small dogs that peep modestly out on the busy world for the first time, to wear those gr<sit big badges? Mr. Willie Copeland,the mute who has canvassed the city for a “Life of Captain Fry,” seems to lie doing a good business. Ho has a long list of names, which he is now supplying with the book. He servos success. It is said that an ant can go ton miles in ten hours and carry with it a weight heavier than itself. Nothing but an ant would do all that. Melon parties are popular with our col ored friends. Columbus has just as many peddlers as she wants. Tho mines iu Lumpkin county are re ported to tie yielding ores of unusual rich ness. Police matters are quiet, we wont say dull. Exorcise, air and sunlight are three of natures most potent remedies/ The sun light of August and July may uot bo such a potant remedy though, if taken in large quantities. A bad marriage is likke an electric ma chine. It makes you dance, but you can’t let go. Tho farmers surest speculation Is in plough-shares. The crow must be a very brave bird. He never shows the white feather. A good friend is he who will speak of your faults to your face aud talk >f your virtues behind your back. There is nothing more abundant iu this world, nothing more freely given or more reluctantly taken, than advice. The Columbus Guards have given out the Idea of going to White Sulpher Springs. Shall we have a tagot practice or a dress parade sotno time this week? There is an unmatlable letter in the Savannah poetoffiee for Mrs. M. F. Wil liams, of Columbus. Tho largest colored tax payer in Chat ham county is C. A. Gibbons. He gives in $5,800. Some people who have not got to swear ing yet, say if their assertions are not true there is no devil. Such ignoring of his satanic majesty is not at all commend able. Tho St Louis Dry Good# Reporter pre dicts an early fail trade. Some of our mer chants think the same way. Just think what a glorious time the Third Goorgla are having at Portsmouth. “O, were you ne'er a soldier boy?” There was a little convulsive energy in business yesterday. Saturday always en livens the city a little, and the end of the dullest week is the least dull part of it. Lightning tore a feather bed all to pieces in Virginia the other day and local philos ophers don’t know what to loot for next. Dipthoriu and other throat diseases seem to be very common among children. Georgia still furnishes her quota of Il licit distillers. Our people sometimes carry patronage of home industry too far.

Denham, of Putnam county, recently picked up an account of a Colum bus firm against a Harris county man, which is supposed to have licon blown to the place where it was found, by the terri ble tornado of March 20th. Wonderful talcs of tho doings of that tornado still come in. Its effects seem to be very last ing, and once la a while some new evi dence of its power Is disooved. Verily it was a great storm.

A CllMh*r, We accidently heard a profound argu ment between two colored theologians yesterday os to the proneness of man to worship money.

The English Lord St. Leonard hav ing received a letterof congratulation because of his enjoyment of good health In hto old age, and Inquiring to know the secret of it, made a reply which now for the first time has been pabUhed. Perhaps a useful hint may be obtained from it by the read er. He soys: “I must altogether disclaim the possession of the secret of long life. My own great age-In my ninety-first yeur-is singular in this respect: its o]reration oil the two classes to which I belong. lam the oldest Poor In the House of Lords, and therefore I am called the father of the House; I am the oldest member of the bar. After so long a ]>eriod, never withdrawing from theduties attached to the position which I have occupied, I have ultimately retired from public life, hut still find myself called upon to exercise the faculties of which a kind Providence has left me in i*>s session. I lead a life which seems likely to extend itself. I enter into no speculation, aud have nothing to agitato me. I avoid all luxurious living, and limit myself jo a mod erate quantity of wiue. I go early to bed, aud ipy moderaton is reward ed by a good night’s sleep. I live a happy life, for which I thank God, and Bubmit myself to His guidance and mercy. This, then, is all the secret I jxSsscss of long life.” The principal and interest of the bonded debt of the United Htutes must be puid ohiefiy from the pro ceeds of revenue taxes of imports, which, ns has been very often demon strated. are in effect taxes on our ex ports. As the South has always furnished more than half of these exiiorts she pays more than half the interest and maturing bonds, and must continue so to pay them. Southern people are, therefore, inter ested in this question, but as heavy as the load is they would not be wil ling to see the goverment of the Union dishonored by repudiation.
