Mwrrt Potato©*.
Our first sweet potatoes have arrived,
and are evidently more highly appreciated
than our first cotton was. They are well
grown and we suppose they taste well.
They are sold for the enormous price of
$1 a bushel, which, we suppose, Is about
five cents apiece.
Our consolation is that they cannot re
in tin at this figure long. Now supplies
will soon bring them down to poor man’s
prices.
Kumbcrlng of lloirae*.
The numbering of housen goes on rapid
ly. Tbo plan seems to tuko. The numbers
commonly used are about four Inches
long and two wide. The figures are large
and plain. Thoeost for tbo plain numbers
is ten cents, wo believe. This places them
within roach of all, and It Is surely worth
ton eonls just to say you livo In a num
bered house ami to have something to
write on your card under your name. The
Times office was numbered yesterday and
is 43 Randolph street, "at your service.”

It. may be of Interest to our readers to
know that manager W. 11. Biilwoll, of New
Orleans, has organized a strong stock
company for the coming season. Mr. W.
H. Huntley, who became quite popular In
Columbus last winter, has been engaged ns
"leading juvenile.” We forget the name
of the “leading jheavy.” The troupe Is
represented as a very strong one and Is
said to contain no small amount of first
rate talent. Columbus will probably be
among the cities taken in the route for this
winter.

In the track at Floyd’s Wood Back. They
worked hard but could not get the track
In order In time for the half past eight
passeugor train yesterday to pans. It was
met by a train from Opelika and a trans

continued all day. By noon some of the
boxes that were thrown off had been re
placed on the track. Wo hoard later In the
afternoon that the damage to the road
was completely repaired and that the
afternoon freight came In on time. The
break in the road was quite serious
and the damage to the ears considerable.
Borne of them have not yet been raised
from the place whoro they fell. We sup

Kills shooting has never received so
much attention since the days when our
forefathers practiced It behind trees with
tho hostile red-skins, as at the present
time. The success of our team across the
water, their brilliant victory over tho pick
of a nation of marksmen Booms to have set
thp whole country aglow with enthusiasm
and to have inspired an almost universal
love of target shooting. Every city of im
portance now boasts Its rifle team, and
even seine of the minor towns o( lieorgla
protest against lining lelt behind in the
general progress, and boast of the profi
ciency of their bnekwoods marksmen.
Tho military companies seem to hoes
pecially affected by the rifle mania, they
never bolero shot so much, or take such a
pride In good shooting.
There is to he a rltle match at our Htate
Fair, which will Is) tho source of great at
traction, and for which some half-dozen
teams are now practicing.
Proficiency in rifle shooting is now re
garded above the level of such attainments
generally. It has dignified itself into a
national sport, and he who attains the
highest excellence in It becomes known to
the nation. The results which tills state
of affairs will havo upon our soldiery are
too plain to he pointed out. If tho present
enthusiasm for rifle shooting continues,
our military will become un army of
marksmen, and In war marksmen always
toll.
Governor Smith has recently received a
communication from tho National Rifle
Association, which will lie of interest to
all who love the noble sport. The plan of
I laving the Southern Btates represented at
an “lutor-Stato” rifle match is a good one.
Almost every company in each Htate has
its crack shot, and a team composed of
the Isist marksmen of any Soutncrn Htate
would surely Is) ho mean competitor. We
believe a magnificent team could be ob
tained In Georgia If tlm best riflemen were
selected. The letter ought to he taken in
to consideration at once, and if Georgia
intends to enter the contest immediate ac
tion should lie taken. There Is no reason
why the Empire State of tho South should
not attain distinction, tf not pre-eminence,
at tills national rifle match. If proper ef
fort was made by all the Southern States
they might each send to the match a mag
nificent team, and prove to the North that
though It call lioat us rowing we usk It no
odds when It oomos to the rifle. We hope
our companies will at once take this letter
under consideration and act upon It. The
names of several of the signers are famil
iar as members of tho American team:

HOW THEY SPEND THE TIME HERE KOH
LER SKATES RESURRECTED.
Wo had a long talk yesterday with a gen
tleman who had just returned from the
White Hulphur Springs.
He gives glowing accounts of that re
sort, and says it presents one of the gay
est spectacles lie has ever witnessed. The
crowd has steadily increased since the
springs wore opened and now there are
between seventy-five and ono hundred
people there, each day making its addition
to tills number.
This crowd, composed of those who wore
fortunate enough to bo able to leave the
dull city for tho gay springs, spends its
time in various ways, all of which conduce
greatly to enjoyment.
One of the most popular amusements
now in vogue is tho roller skates, which
Grouted such a furore hero a few winters
ago. Mr. J. W. ltyan sent down to the city
and procured a largo number of those
skates for tho ploasure of his guests. The
ball room makes an elegant rink, and now
everybody is skating. Those who know
tho art are enjoying it as artists and they
who have not been Initiated into its mys
teries are enjoying tho falls and bumps
which loads to the perfection of grace.
The Skating JLtink is free to all, and is
an attraction which no other watering
place in Georgia can claim.
Tho country people, who live in the
neighborhood, a few days ago furnished
the guests at the Springs with an amuse
ment with which they wore not familiar,
but whkkh was no loss enjoyable on that
account. They had, in full view of the
hotel, an old-fashioned “gander pulling."
Those who have soon a “gander pulling”
know what we mean; t hose who havo not ,
cannot have any Idea of its peculiar
charms and picturesque attractions.
Quite a pleasant surprise was expe
rienced, a day or two since, by the arrival
of twenty-nine visitors from the Warm
Springs, who came over to spend the day.
The sulphur baths are enjoyed by all.
No charge is made for tlie use of them.
They are better arranged than ever, and
furnish every convenience one could wish.
What renders a stay at White Sulphur
particularly enjoyable is the entire ab
sence of all stiffness or attempt at display.
Everybody wears every day clothes and
feels at home. No flashy toilette; s are dis
played by tho ladies, and the gentlemen
feel the need of no elegant wardrobes. All
partake of the freedom and ease of time
country enjoyment.
Visitors from LoGrange come over fre
quently and spend a day or two. The
ehildron, .and their name is legion, are all
the pictures of health and rosy vigor.
Columbus people are largely in the ma
jority. Hotel accommodations are said to
be superior, and everything the Columbus
market affords is furnished to the guests.
Mr. Ryan is iu charge of the hotel, and
keeps it up well. Tho time must pass
pleasantly to those who aro enjoying the
pleasures of the White Sulphur, and the
can’t-get-nwavs aro not so selfish as not to
feel glad that their friends are surrounded
by such pleosafit circumstances.

The Montgomery Advertiser notices
what a lively trade our merchant* always
have on tho night after the factory opera
tives are paid off, and says that Mont
gomery experiences no such sudden cu
ll von lngs of her trado. The Advertiser as
signs as a cause for this last fact Mont
gomery's want of cotton factories, and
speaks of tho benefits which they would
confer upon tnatcity.
The Atlanta papers make frequent ref
erences to our cotton factories and their
importance not only to the city, but to the
whole Htate. The beginning of a cotton
factory in Atlanta is justly considered one
of the greatest strides made by a con
stantly advancing city. There is no doubt
that others will be erected there as soon
as the advantages of the first are seen.
In nearly every dty in the South, this
cry for cotton factories is now raised, and
many of them are moving towards their
erection. Augusta is not content with her
present factories. Others are to be built
there very soon. Cotton factories will
soon be erected all over the South, for
there nover was a time when they could
be made to pay so well. Machinery is
cheaper than over. Constant improve
ments are rendering it more fit for use iu
mills and more durable.
Already several leading Northern pa
pers have acknowledged the superior ad
vantages in the manufacture of cotton
which arc possessed by the South. The
Southern people seem to be slow in dis
covering what Northern journals now de
clare. They seem just to be realizing the
immense advantages they have over the
North, and have hardly come to tho con
clusion that if they properly use these
advantage's tho North cannot compete
with them in prices. They have their
mills almost in the midst of the fields
where the cotton grows, and if our advan
tages are properly improved, in a few
years it; will not be mwjoftsary to ship our
cotton to Northern mills, but at home
there will be a standing demand for it—or,
at least, a groat part of it.
The Way It Will Re.
The Opelika papers say tho railroad
shops ought to bo moved from this city to
that growing city. They are very unsel
fish, and advocate the removal solely “for
tho sake of tho mechanics.” They say the
operatives can live cheaper there than in
Columbus. How this is they do not state,
and the argument ends in assertion.
We do not blame Opelika for wanting
the shops there, if she can got them. Co
lumbus people do not relish the idea.
There is no reason why it should be done.
Mechanics can live just as cheap here as
they can in Opelika. The removal of the
shops would coßt the Central Road much
more than all the advantages claimed by
Opelika would compensate.
The removal Is not at all certain yet, and
while the shops smoke on our commons,
we will still hope. Homehow we have an
aversion to living at a railway station be
tween Macon and Opelika, and would not
like to hear the brakesman's nasal twang
intonate the cry,'“Columbus! Fifteen min
utes for dinner!"

The aj>pro*ch of tho Preaideutl*! ©lectlou give*
uoosurl importance t* the ©vent* and develop
meets of 1875. We shall endeavor to describe
them fully, fiflithfully and fearlessly.
THE WEEKLY SUN baa now attained a circula
tion of over eighty thousand copies. Its readers
r© fonnu in every Statu and Territory, and lta
quality is well known to the public. We shall
uot only eudeavor to keep It fully up to
standard, but to Improve and add to its variety
and power.
THEW EEKLY SUN will continue to be a thor
ough newspaper. All the news of the day will be
found in it, condensed when unimportant, at
full length when of moment, and slwsys, we
trust, treated in a clear, interesting and instruct
ive manner.
It is our aim to make the Weekly Him the best
family newspaper iu the world. It will be full of
entertaining and appropriate reading of every
sort, but will print uothing to offend the most
scrupulous and delicate taste. It will always
contain the most interesting stories and ro
mances of the day, carefully selected aud legibly
printed.
The Agricultural Department i* a prominent
feature in the Weekly Sun, and its articles Will
always be found fresh and useful to the farmer.
The number of men independent in politicand
especially. It belongs to no party, and obeys no
dictation, contending for principle, sod lor the
election of the best men. It exposes the corrup
tion that disgraces the country aud threatens the
overthrow of republican institutions. It has no
fear of knaves, and seeks no favors from their
supporters.
The market* of every kind aud the fashions
are regularly reported.
The price of the WEEKLY SUN is one dollar a
year for a sheet of eight pages, and fifty-six col
umns. As this barely pay* the expenses of paper
and priuting, we are not able to make any dis
count or ad .v ar.y premium to friends who may
make special effort* to extend its circulation.
Under the new law, which requires payment of
postage in advance, one dollar a year, with twenty
cents the cost of prepaid postage added, is the
rate of subscription. It is not necessary to get
up a club in order to have the Weekly Sun at this
rate. Any one who sends one dollar and twenty
rente will get the paper, postpaid fof oue year
We have no traveling agents.

Why Will Ton Pine Away I
WITHOUT A PARALLEL.
The demand for Dr. J. Brad field’s Fe
• male Regulator is beyond precedent in
i the annals of popular remedies. Orders
I come in so thick and fast that the Propri
t otor has, heretofore been unable to fill
j them all. He is happy to state that ar-
I rangements are now complete by which
i lie is prepared to manufacture Female
i Regulator on a scale equal to the emer
! gency, and the 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
j fer from suppressed, suspended or irreg
ular menstruation. This valuable medi
cine is prepared by L. H. Bradfield, Drug-
I gist, Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per
; bottle by druggists throughout America.
HEARTY BLOOMING WIDOW.
Marietta, Ga., March 9, 1870.
j Messrs. Bradfield and: 6b.:
! Gentlemen—You will please ship us an
; other supply of your invaluahte Female
: Regulator, ami forward bill by mail. We
{ are happy to state that this remedy gives
better satisfaction than any article we
! sell. We have been selling it since 18G8,
, and witnessed many remarkable cures by
it. Among others, there was a lady
} friend of ours who was sallow and sickly
i until she was twenty-six years old, when
' she was married. Her husband iived two
j v and died. She continued in bad
j health; in fact, she has never been what
' a woman ought to be. A few months
i 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
i 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
; three dollars, when she had tried several
J physicians and spent a great deal of
; money without any benefit. Wishing you
i great success with your valuable reme
dies, we are, respectfully yours, etc.,
W. Root A Sons.
