To remedy the difficulty only requit-ee the repeal of the proHont law, and tho passage of an ordi nance requiring each citizen to give In tho number of doge on their lots, just as they return any other species of property they own. Then let tho penalty from failure so to render In lie tho Imposing a fine of *5, or the killing of the animal by the po lice. I would suggest further, that the tax upon each dog bo roducod from $1 to 50c. that tho tax bo not oppressive upon the poorer dosses of society. Much u law would yield a larger revenue, obviate the liun unsu ut Imogen ami dog oollars, and save the elty tho expense of contracting * annually for a different style of badge. Besides, tho purelmsers of these badges freciurnlly have them stolon off the nocks of their dogs by luiprim ipfri/ thieves, who wish to protect their own at tho sarrltii-o of tho purchaser's dog. The shooting of these animals at night and early morning Is a crying nuisance to tho quiet slumber erg and norvously sick throughout our City Dugs are essential to tho protection of property, and as pets for children. Let us have a now law, got In inure tax, have moro quint, and save the lives of those poor unfortunate brutes, which it 1b inhu man to slay. A Fbibxu oy thk Disi. Another- Ntiootlnn Mutch.

Ho goes to attend the semi annual convention of tho Stoto Agricul tural Society, which convenes in Dalton to-day. He Is a memhor of tho Executive Committee of the Society. The present convention will be one of more than ordinary Importance. It will also boa pleasant meeting of farinors and citizens from all parts of the State, an In terchange of whose vlows Is sure to bo tienetlclal to all. A largo attendance of delegates and visitors is lookod for. The following Is announced as tho order of business: Tuesday—Opening address of tho Presi dent ; report (being tho fourth) from tho experimental farm, Dr. E. M.

It has been made and Is now In the hands of Mr. Malcolm Johnson, secretary of tho socloty, and ready for delivery. It is a handsome tes timonial to the founder of the society, aud one who has lieen its fast friend at all times and under all circumstances. We will keep our readers posted as to the most important acts of the convention. Mhootlngr Oullery. Mr. Peterson's shooting gallery noar the Times office continues to lie tho source of considerable amusement. The guns are n use almost constantly. Some of our gravest citizens drop in occasionally toon joy tho sport. The contest for the prizes of $5 and $2 will close to-night A lively time is expected all day, and especially to night. The best ten shots yet made ag gregate 111 out of a possible 120. Home body will probably beat this to-day. The young blood who claims this best sluxit- Ing says he is determined to come out ahead this time. Tho guns shoot very ac curately, and several gentlemen have practiced so much that tlioy are nlgb to perfection. Go in to-day and try your hand. You may win the prize. IlrHlh of Mr. E. W. Tlioinii*. Yesterday morning between 0 and 7 o'clock Mr. E. \V. Thomas died at the resi dence of MrH. McGehec, on Troup street. Mr. Thomas was well known to our citi zens, having been book-keeper at Mr. A. Gammel’s stables for the past five years. He came to Columbus soon after the war. Ho entered the Confederate service as h volunteer from Vicksburg, Miss., and made an exemplary soldier. The day be fore the army of Virginia surrendered he was terribly wounded in the hip and ankle. Since that time ho has suffered a great from these wounds. About two weeks Ago they became much worso than usual, and he suffered a great deal. Dr. F. A. Stanford kindly attended him and did all in his power to relieve his sufferings. Sunday night lie rapidly grew worse and his death was not at all unexpected. He was buried yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock from the residence of Mrs. Mc- Gehoe, Rev. R. J. Corley officiating. Mr. Thomas had many friends hore. He was known as a good soldier and a quiet citizen. His loss will be regretted by many. Wo understand that ho is a native of Vir ginia. f'ulmuliim IVmalri ('olleare. Mr. A. Spencer, formerly Principal of the Synodical Female College of Talladega, Ala., has l>oon secured as a professor in the Columbus Female College. Ho is a man of about forty-five years old, and is well in Alabama, bearing an amiable fame as an instructor. He is said to be a gentleman of great learning and research, and eminently fitted for a college profes sorship. Since tho war Mr. Spencer has been in charge of a school In Kentucky. We arc glad the services of such a competent teacher havoboen secured, and hope may be as well filled, lie will bo in Columbus by the Ist of September. By tho 10th, all the professorships will be filh*d, and an able corps of touchers put in charge of the collogo. The term will open on the first Monday in October. Prospects are good for a largo attendance. Prof. G. R. Glenn will return to the city this week and go to work for the college. Success to his efforts! Gi-ttnd Lodge or I. O. O. F. Mr. L. P. Aenohbacker left tho city Sun day to attend the, meeting of the Grand Lodge of the Independent Order of (kid Fellow’s for the State of Gooagia, which convenes in Athens to-day. He goes as tho delegate from Muscogee Lodge, No. 6. Mr. L. G. Sohoussler also wont, as he is one of the Grand Officers of the Suite. It is expected that about one hundred ami twenty delegates will be present, and that business of importance will be trans acted. The order of Odd Fellows Is grovv ingvery fast in Georgia, ns well as in all the Stab's. Muscogee Lodge la in a very flourishing condition. It is said to bo one of tire prettiest lodge rooms in the State. Messrs. Aenohbacker and Scheussler will return next Friday. Odd Follows will look with interest to the proceedings of the Grand Lodge. Mr. 11. C. Turpin. As Announced a day or two ago, Mr. H. 0. Turpin has assumed tho management of tho Wheeler & Wilson Machine Agency in this city. Tho business is certainly in good hands. Mr. Turpin has had years’ of experience in tho sewing machine busi ness and thoroughly understands the sci ence of it. For a long time he was agent for the Singer in North Carolina, and ho has letters from that company very highly commendatory of his management. He has come to Columbus with the de termination of making a complete success of his agency and has already gone to work to accomplish this end. Having a thorough knowledge of the business, ho knows exactly how to push it on to suc cess. Representing, as ho does, a popular machine, and having his experience, it is certain that he will not fail to build up a fine business here. Our citizens will find him a pleasant gentleman and a thorough business man. Bridal Presents of Solid Silver and Silvor-Platod Ware. A now assortment just received at V r rrricu A, Kinsel’s.

The enterprise of numbering houses has just begun In Columbus, and seems to be meeting with very general approval. Wo call attention to tho notice of B. W. Smolk A Cos. In this issue. The roasons given why all the bouses In the city should be numbered are all good. The general numbering of residences, as well os place© of business, will undoubted ly be a great convenience to our people. There are many ways Ift which It would bo beneficial. Tho cost of numbering bouses is very small, unless the owner wishes it done very handsomely. The plain numbers can be put on for ten cents. Some of our citizens have already hud their residences very handsomely num bered in stained glass, which makes quite an ornament to tho entrance of a resi dence. All the houses In Rome are numbered, while it Is scarcely half as large as Colum bus. The citizens find it a great conven ience. The houses in Augusta are number**!, although she lias no free mail delivery. Wherever the plan has been tried it has worked well and given satisfaction. It gives a city-like appearance to any place, to see the houses all well and uniformly numbered. The plan will take in Colum bus, and It Is probable that it will be al most universally adopted. The exi>ense is very small, and the benefits resulting from the general numbering of houses are very considerable. Have your residence, as well os your store numbered. Itnlil In Heullwood. On Saturday night a raid was made, by some villains, upon tho promise of Mr. Thomas Wooldridge, in Beallwood, by which that gentleman sustained consider able loss. A line heifer calf was stolen, her throat cut, and the carcass severed in two—the raiders biking the hindquar ters for themselves and loaving the rest for the rightful owner of the veal. His melon fields were also invaded, and the finest of the fruit taken. It Is the second or third time that Mr. W. has suffered in a similiar manner; and hereafter, so far as he is concerned, tho mldnlgnt marauder will bo obliged to take good care of him self. The yearling, a beautiful animal, was quietly and peacefully browsing within a few steps of the dwelling, up to ten o'clock at night. The thieves, evident ly two in number, wore tracked a quarter of a mile, but no portion of the meat could bo discovered. ‘ How long!” etc. Kironti Law FlVm. It will bo of interest to the members of the bar in this city to learn that Judge .McKay and Judge Trippc, who have just resigned their positions as judges of the Supreme Court, have formed a law co partnership in Atlanta, ami will practice in all the courts. The papers of that city say that It is an uriusu lly strong law firm, and must do a very large practice, iwo ex-Judges of the Supreme Court ought surely to constitute a strong firm, and the widespread reputation of both Judge McKay and Judge Trippo will bring into their hands a large amount of busi ness. l*er*oaal. Mr. Francis Fontaine, associate editor of the Times loft Sunday for a stay of ton days in North Georgia. He will be present at the Dalton Agricultural Convention, after which he will visit Cartorsvilie. Wo hope that the sight of those magnifi cent crops, about which North Georgia papers are so oxultant, and the free moun tain air, for which that section of the State is famous, may greatly benefit his health, and return him to his duties great ly improved and invigorated. To New York nnd Return. In mentioning that tickets to New York and return were on sale at Atlanta for ST'S, we should have said that they were by the Atlantic ports and steamers.

Do you believe tho world is coming to an end on the 10th of September? This is the firm conviction of not a few colored sages. J uAt Ice courts are as still as death. Most of tho lawyers arc rusticating and recu perating their strength for the fall busi ness. Columbus is surrounded on ail sides by an abundance of watermelon patches. They are frequently disturbed by midnight prowlers, though some of the owners watch their treasures with a shot gun in hand, and it is a dangerous business to be peeping arouud too much. It is rumored that Col. Whidby, of the Atlanta Constitution, will soon go to tho Black Hills to assume the editorial man agement of the Sioux Weekly Gazette. The scuppernong crop is good but tho fruit is small on account of the excessive dry weather. A good rain would greatly improve scuppernong prospects. Travel on the Southwestern road seems to be improving. The out passenger train Sunday was comfortably full. A disconsolate farmer write* to a friend in this city that he has some cotton In Muscogee county that will not make a bale to twenty acres. Corn in this county is much better than cotton. Ladies can shop to advantage now. Tiie merchants are offering some rare bar gains to make way for fall and winter stock. Many of the cisterns in the city are be ginning to fail. They are the source of our best drinking water and everybody hopes they will hold out until the “wet season” begins. Condensed beer is the latest. Topers say that which we get now is good enough for them. Now that they raako glass that Is not brittle, j>eoplo who live in glass houses can throw stones as safely as other peo ple. There is an astonishingly largo number of idle negroes in this county. They get “a job” once in a while, but how they live is a mystery to tho uninitiated. Now sot your turnip patch in order. With the exception of that false alarm last week our firemen have had a long resting spell. Croquet is becoming very popular in the country. A great many sets aro sent from Columbus to various parts of this and ad joining counties. The Broad street club still maintains its excellence. They are burning thousands on thous ands of bricks over in Marshal. Marriage items are scarce among our exchanges. We have pot furnished one in a long time. What are wo coming to anyway ? The Sunny South, has a very large and steadily increasing circulation in this part of tho State. Goorgia has 218,733 whites and 175,335 negroes between the age of six and eigh teen. The present annual educational ap propriation is SIBI,OOO. Peach peelings on the sidewalks now rank high among local nuisances. There is sure to be an immense attend ance at the union camp-meeting near Ge neva. A good time is anticipated by all. Terpfiichorean enjoyment has ceased for the present. Warm weather is not the best for it. We would all be very much obliged to our two handsome military companies for an occasional battalion drill and dreas parade. Mocking birds are more popular here than canaries. A good mocking bird is worth twenty of the modest, little, yellow singers. Reserved seats in railroad cars will be the next thing. On most of the Southern railroads such an innovation would be very superfluous. Hon. M. J. Crawford returned from Athens Saturday, and left Sunday for Pine Knot Springs. A party of fair ones came back from Pin© Knot Saturday night;, and Columbus is not quite as dull as it was last week. Wyunton is said to be rapidly improv ing, and several gentlemen who reside there predict a speedy return to its an cient popularity and prosperity. Now the grand mosquito baud is play ing its wildest melody. There is not much excitement over cot ton futures yet. Still the grapes and peach hs pour tn, and the watchful physician keeps his eye on his fruit-hungry patients. The watermelon trade is not governed by the general dullness, but aeons to grow livelier every day. It is rumored that a reading club is soon U> be organized in the city. It is to be hoped that rumor is oorrect this time. Two Columbus merchants spend these quiet afternoons in the fascinating pleas ure* of chess. We have one or two fine players hore. Passengers on tho Western Railroad re port the drouth around West Point to be terrible. Crops aro burnt up. and every species of vegetation is fast getting into ‘ the sear and yellow leaf.” The wearers of low-quartered shoes join in the cry for rain. This dust is ruinous to their socks and destructive to all com forts. Those who look into the future are buy ing up coal for next winter now. It is much cheaper, and economy would sug gest to all to lay in a good Supply. Vegetable gardening around Columbus pays finely. Quite a number of gentlemen are engaged in it, and they all seem to do well. August Is beginning to try its hand. We all knew that the cloudy pleasantness of last week could not continue a great while. Tho theatrical season in Georgia cities will open sooner than usual this year. We may look for tiie first troupes in Septem ber. Those who have tho means are already beginning to look about in Florida for a nice place to enjoy the value of that cli mate next winter. There will be more Columbus next winter than there are now. A Columbus young lady lunooently says that 6he “does not think she will attend this centennial.” Our first August moon is doing very well and gets nicely brighter every night. You know we are to have another Luna blessing this month. Rejoice, oh, ye soft talkers. TO THK riBLKr.

Her husband lived two i years and died. She continued in bad j 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 accord in# to di rections. It has cured her sound and well, brought her regular month!v peri ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom ing widow—with tiie use of but two bot tles of roar Regulator, costing her only ! three dollars, when she bad tried several I physicians and spent a great deal of i money without anv benefit.
