Tho Wylly brought tho first now cotton to Uolumhus this year, and on tho way to tills city loft two halos of tho new crop at Eufauia. Eufauia thus was u little ahead of us, receiving hor bales on Monday and Columbus on Tuesday. One of tho new bales carried to Eufauia was raised in Ala bama, and the other in Florida. Both bales were sold nt auction, and brought 17c. Our first cotton brought only 13%e. Tho Eufauia Time* says if only one bale had boon received, and it had boon put up at auction as the first bale, it .would have brought 22c., or probably 25c. Two bales made the price fall considerably. Eufauia lias received 50,700 bales since tho Ist of last September, besides 2,500 bales brought by tho railroads for sale lit that city. A total receipt of nearly 31,000 bales is therefore claimed. Those wishing a bargain in Table Dam ask, Napkins, Towels, &o, will do well to call at febH d&wtf J. J.

We give the returns for last year. The comparison with those of this year will bo found interesting: Polls, 2,087; profession, 66; dentists, 5; auctioneers, 1; daguerrean artists, 2 ; bil liard, bagatelle and other tables, 2; chil dren between 6 and 18 years of age, 1,173; number of hands employed between 12 and 65 years of age, 1,074; total number of acres, 14,274%; aggregate value of land, $1,001,131; aggregate value of city proper ty, $3,069,945; number of shares in any bank in Georgia, 1,009; value of shares, $110,000; amount of money and solvent debts of all kinds, $1,073,883; merchandise, $710,215; stocks and bonds, $177,365; cotton manufactories, $1,583,900; iron works, $131,225; value of household furniture and kitchen furniture not above the value of SSO, $202,310; value of all property not enumerated, except crops, provisions, Ac., $240,320. Aggregate valuo of whole prop erty, $8,300,294. Amount of tax on profes sions, Ac., $Bl5. Amount of tax polls, $2,- 087. DIMINUTION. It wilt be seen that there has been a gen eral diminution in the returns this year. The diminution in the aggregate value ol property is $434,761. The value of cotton manufactories is given in as $54,400 less than last year. The amount of stocks and bonds this year shows a vast decrease ol $55,075. Merchandise shows a decrease of $55,310. Aggregate value of city property is given in as $230,890 less than last year. The number of acres of land given in has increased 8,548 acres. Several other less Important changes will bo noticed in a comparison of the re turns for the two years. Military .%>%%•. There arc 281 organized companies of military in Georgia. Only fifty-eight of these are armed. The armed companies consist of forty-five infantry, eleven caval ry, and two artillery companies. Geor gia’s quota of arms from the United States is only sufficient to arm throo companies per annum, and tho Legislature of Geor gia has refused to make any appropria tion to arm these 173 companies that have no weapons. As fast as the arms are re ceived from the United States government they aro distributed by tboGovernor, those companies whose application for arras was first handed in being first served, The military spirit is evidently abroad in the land, and it seems to be spreading. The colored population lius caught it, and they are organizing companies in nearly every county. It is probable that these recent organizations will have to drill with broomsticks and shot guns for several years to come if they depend on getting arms from tho Government. If the com panies aro only armed at tho rate of three a year it is probable that tho grand children of some of tho prime movers in tho formation of them may reap tho re ward of their ancestors deeds, and receive their war-like equipments from the Gov ernment. The formation of companies will probably cease for a while now, as the hopes of obtaining anus for years to come cannot be entertained. Some companies in tho State have purchased arms for themselves. Few are able to. bo so inde pendent of the Government. C 01l Two gentlemen in thitr city have recent ly received no less t han one dozen letters from gentlemen who reside in different parts of Georgia and Alabama, who desire to send their daughters to the Columbus Female College. Several of them contem plate moving to the city. They made in quiries as to the price of real estate, rents, board, Ac., in Columbus. The letters were all answered and others will probably soon bo received. Prof. Glenn will soon bo home and all communications will bo turned over to him. Prospects look well for the college now and they will probably grow better. ('ollecUnif .-Vfceut. The undersigned offers his services to the public as a General Collecting Agent.

Is there any news from the jetty ? Of making many newspajiers in Atlanta thcro is no end. There are now fourteen publications in that city. The people ought surely to keep posted. Charles F. Wingate lias published a book called “Views and Interviews on Journalism.” It contains sketches of Whitelaw Reid, Henry Wattcrson, Murat Hoi stead, and all other famous American editors. The volume is pronounced a suc cess, and it is said that the author Ims thrown into a prevailing impression of in dividuality from which it derives a large share of its interest. Such a volume will bo largely popular. Sir Winfrid Lawson recently spoke of Mars and Bacchus as “the god of battles and the god of bottles.” The deputy marshal was busy yester day morning superintending the removal of limbs and [>ortions of trees blown on the sidewalks and streets by the storm of Monday. Almost every street was liter ally green with fractured limbs and twigs scattered in all directions. Finest Silk Hats for $5 at E. E. Yonge’s Hat Store. The water rapidly fell Monday after noon, arid tho Mobile A Girard Railroad track is once more visible near tho court house. Spring chickens have passed that stage of growtli where it took four of them to make a nice lunch for a man of good appe tite. Koine of the country dames who reside near Columbus bring in beautiful butter to our market. It is solid, firm, and yellow as gold. They ask good prices for it, but it is well worth twice as much as the stuff that looks like lard and does not taste as well. The union prayer meetings of the Meth odists, held tills week at St. Luke church, are well attended. They will continue until the end of tin) week. Gen. Beauregard passed through Atlan ta Monday on his way to Virginia. The reason now urged why Grant should step down next year is that wo arc out of ex-Pressdents. Cotton ia opening fast in many fields be tween Columbus and Macon. General picking will soon begin. There are two hundred and fifty guests at New Holland Springs. This is the lead ing Summer resort in Georgia for the present season. We have had our first new cotton, and are now quietly waiting for the first lot of new sweetpotatoes. To us tho latter arrival will be the more interesting of tiie two. There is nothing likeoconomy, and every youtli in the city is making an earnest ef fort to wear out his low-quartered shoes before frost comes. Hazlitt tries to console all who have not a plenty of this world’s goods by say ing- that “poverty is the test of civility, and the touchstone of friendship.’’ Several new stores have recently opened in the city in spite of the cry of dullness. The average Columbus boy had much rather stay at home to throw peach pigl ings on the sidewalk during the day, and chunk cats at night, than to enjoy the lux uries of a watering place. The style of pantaloons to be worn this fail will be large enough to pin back. Young ladies, if you have a life-size por trait of Gen. Washington or William Hen ry Harrison painted on a dinner plate hang it around your neck and be in the style. The city is said to be very clean at pres ent. The rain of Monday did fine wash ing, and our streets are improved, despite a lew small gullies made by the water. “There’s no place like home," sighs tin* young man from Georgia, as he struts around in Texas, with his hands in his pockets, and thinks the question of where his dinner is to come from a capital co nundrum. On almost any road loading from tin* city you will see negroes in parties of three or four trudging along, stick in hand, and with their worldly effects dangling in a yellow handkerchief over their shoulders. They say they are looking for something to do. As soon as cotton picking begins they will find employment very easily. If our Rifle Team means to walk victo riously over the green turf of Central City Park, they had better organize at once. The other teams that intend to enter the contest now practice frequently, and prac tice always bears off the medal. The Scotch “mail” makes the distance from Edinburgh to London, 397 miles, in side of eight hours, an average rusfof fifty miles per hour. This leaves our American roads a little in the rear. A youth who has talked to one girl at a party for two hours and is at last relieved by some kind friend, could not help draw ing a long breath as he walks away, if he | tried. It is tired natures thanks for relief.j Some of our streets present quite a rua- j tic aspect. Cows browse quietly tinder ] the shade of their trees and the contented j swine meanders over tho scene. We have the “lowing herd” very often in tho heart of our city. The Atlanta I braid now gets out an eve ning edition which soils for three cents a copy. It is a small eight page sheet, very different in form from the "morning edi tion. It is gotten up in very neat style. The evening edition of the Cmstitution is the same size and style as that which ap pears in the morning, and is sold for five* cents. Both papers are very enterprising. Copper coins, one ami two cents, are coming into general use again. A supply of them may reach Columbus after a while. In our present extravagance wo never in vest less than a nickel. The signs blown down by Monday’s wind have boon replaced and the last traces of the storm are fast fading away. The tickets which are sold from Atlanta to New York and return for $45 do not send passengers by the Central Rond to Savannah and then furnish them passage on steamer to New York. The route is by Augusta, thence to Charleston by rail, and there the steamers are taken. This route is short and is said to lx? very pleasant. We hope those Alabama grasshoppers will keep on the other side of the river. Dry weather has done the work for us over here. That newspaper in Georgia which has not “its own” candidate for Governor is behind the times. There are almost enough names to allow the journals one apiece.

CINCINNATI LAGER BEER DEPOr, jy2o Columbus, G. ('olumbui >1 Inc-rul Witter. A gentleman in this city has a well which contains fine mineral water. It is strong chalybeate, and tho whoia neighborhood enjoys its blessings. A few days since some lady friends called to see the family and some of tho water was brought in for them to drink. Tho owner of the well apologized for it and said lie thought it was not as good as usual. The ladies dif fered ; they had tosh*! it often before but had never known it to have such a delight ful flavor. They were enthusiastic in its praise. The next day two dead rats were drawn up, perhaps accidentally. This fact has been carefully kept secret from the ladies who praised the water so much. The mineral well is now disused and the bucket will soon be covered with moss, for somehow a prejudice against that water lias taken possession of the whole neigh borhood. Nerloui NtHbblnic ASTnlr. Tuesday night there was a negro ball at one of the dens of vice on front stroet, at which a number of colored belles and beaux were present. Green-eyed jealousy was there too, and Wash Russell and Dick Upshaw were victims of her power, They quarreled and then earne to blows. Dick drew a knife and made a lunge at Wash, cutting him very severely in the groin. The blade penetrated to the hollow, and made a frightful wound. I)r. C. Terry was called in and attended to the wounded man. He pronounces him very badly cut, and says his recovery is very doubtful. He was in a critical condition last night. Upshaw has been arrested. The affair happened in ono of those places which are the prolific sources of many a fracas and light. The city would be better off if they wore all cleared out. CirceneN Auul Flower.

The demand for Dr. J. Bradfield's Fe male Regulator is beyond precedent in the annals of popular remedies. Orders come in so thick and fast that the Propri etor has, heretofore been unable to fill them oil. He is happy to state that ar rangements are now complete by which he is prepared to manufacture Female Regulator on a. scale equal to the emer gency, and tiie 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. H. Bradfleld, Drug gist. Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per bottle by druggists throughout America. HEARTY, BLOOMING WIDOW. Marietta, Ga., March 9,1870.

We are happy to state that this remedy gives better satisfaction than any article we sell. Wo have been selling it since 1868, and witnessed many remarkable cures by i it. Among others, there was a lady friend of ours who was sallow and sickly j 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 he. 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 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 j three dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without any benefit. Wishing you great success with your valuable reme dies, wo are, respectfully yours, etc., W.
