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.

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. W.S.ra Hsllrimil TreU. The railroad operatives wore busy nil Thursday night trying to repair the break 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 fer of passengers took place. The one o’eloek train hacked Into the city, having boon supplied with Its passengers by a train from Opelika. The work on the road 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 pose the road is lu sufficient order to allow the morning passenger to run through to Oimllka. *Jut Arrived, A fresh lot of Bloftehod Homespun, yard wide, at 10, rj%an<l 15c per yard--the best goods In the market at the price, ut febl* itowtJ J.

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: National Rifle Association. } 93 Nassau St., New York, July 30,1H75. ( 7b //i ExetUtmry .lame* M.

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. Dead. We heart! lost night, that Wash ltusseil, who was stabbed by Dick Upshaw at the negro ball Tuesday night, died yesterday. Little hope was entertained of his recov ery from the first.

An old negro woman walked from her home, seven miles distant, to the city yes terday, and brought half a bushel of peaches. She sold them for forty cents and after purchasing a few of the luxuries of life, started homo as happy as a queen. The traces of Monday’s storm are still plainly seen. We may look for a few more such squalls in September. Hamilton has quit pitching quoits and gone to pulling fodder. R. H. Gootcbius has returned to the city after an extended tour throngh Middle Georgia. Entail the watermelons you can. Wo will have them only seven woeks longer. It is said that John Ruskin cannot cor rect his final proof sheets within sound of a steam whistle or within sight of a rain l>ow. The one deranges his whole nervous Hystom and the other makes him so happy that proof sheets aro forgotten. Girard dogs can wander over the hills of Alubarny, as fret} as tho air and not have on any badges, but woe Is? unto them if they cross the bridge and got mixed up with our curs. Juno bugs now engage tho attention of little boys, while their big brothers are after young doves. The partridge “crop" is said to bo fine this year. Perhaps our game laws have a good deal to do with this. Cotton at 12V* cents is enough to make very happy the heart of him who planted his acre's in corn and poos. Hugar cane is growing finely, and we may hope to havo plenty of It in our mar ket this winter. Finest Silk Hats for $3 at E. E. Yon go’s HutS tore. The only excitement now to bo found is in tho ranks of our colored troops. Albany boasts of sixteen cotton buyers who can draw a million apiece if necessa ry. Fail a snake or two. Tho Columbus Debating Society is go ing to live again this winter. It (Right to thrive and prosper if proper interest is taken in its proceedings. The origin of yellow fever has never been discovered, and very few remedies for it seem to bo known. It looks rather suspicious when a young man who lives ten miles in the country rides all tho way into Columbus Just to have his picture taken. Tills happened yesterday. The youth went up into Wil liams’ gallery and came down with a little package in his hand and a smile on his face. Ha van nail boasts of her health fulness, but her mortuary lists run way ahead of those of Columbus, after making due al lowance for difference in population. They say eats attain great longevity. Tills may account for the host of thorn we havo in Columbus. Ten or twelve genera tions arc on us at once. A magistrate says our people are “aw fully law-abiding." Columbus darkles get tired of life if they do not have two balls a week. "How to Eat Cucumbers" is tin* title of a late essay. From the quantities sold at our market every day we judge that Co lumbus people understand the art very, well. Cotton men predict a loss of 80,000 bales in the Memphis district from high water The flower thief has left our borders. At what age do romantic ideas of the “boys" first flit through the maiden’s mind ? We do not know the exact period, but think it comes about five years sooner than It did “when we were young." Our streets afford enough grass for all the cows in the city, though they some times wander out to the commons for a change of scenery. The man who can not sleep well during such nights as wo are now enjoying has something the matter with ids conscience, Tho “United Daughters of Lincoln" is the latest appellation for a society of sa ble females. The average Columbus horse luis learn ed that lamp-posts aro too firmly set to lx? knockod down even by 2:40 speed. He now keeps the middle of the street iu his most frantic runaways. Won’t somebody rise and “splniu" the financial affairs of Washington Fire Com pany ? Jenny Lind has two daughters. One eighteen and tho other twenty. She is said to wear her hair just like she did when she was in America twenty-five years ago. Daily mails now go from Columbus to Hamilton over the North A south Road. Rioo is now being used for brewing pur poses, and the beer which comes from it is said to be of a ftiqrerior quality. Oolumbua is fortuuate. She is never disturb'd by the irregularities of water works, or called upon to witness any hor rible street car catastrophes. Less fortu nate cities may well envy Columbus. “The early bird catches the worm," says the merchant who hies away to New York on tho first of September. As paradoxical as it may sound Griffin is In a blaze of excitement over her miner al water. Elderly ladies say its nice to be on the shady side of forty in warm weat her. Charlotte Cushman was 59 not long since. Site is not at all ashamed of it, and proved that she was not by giving a reception on that august, occasion. Atlanta is as proud of that rising cotton factory ns a young, mother of her “own little treasure.” Wo have not yet heard of any bids for the purchase or lease of the Mobile A Gi rard Railroad. As everybody supposed it will be managed by the Central Road, which was requested to take up the bonds. The Russell Register is a lively sheet, under the management of Messrs. Glenn A Hammons. Mr. E. Herndon Glenn has tho editorial management. Seale ought to be proud of her paper, and keep it up by all means. Nocturnal kite living is still popular. Boys will bo boys, you know. Which company will you go a watermel on for next Thurday’s target shooting ? “Such is life,” sighed an urchin as he dropped a paper sack full of eggs in front of our office, yesterday. There is no city ordinance against very small darkies dressing just as they please, and they do so. Eufaula exults because her first cotton brought so much more than ours.

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!" Talbotton, August 12,1875. Messrs.

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.
