Wo publish in another column u circular
from tho President of the Piedmont and
Arlington Life, placing Dr. Kirkscey in
charge of Alabama. For several years
past Dr. Kirkscey has boon associated with
the late General John C. Breckinridge.
011 the Ist of April, 1875, in dissolving the
partnership the General published the fol
lowing card:
“In terminating my connection with the
above company, and with my friend and
late associate, Dr. E. J. Kirkscey, which I
do solely because of ill health, I desire to
express generally, and especially to tho
policy holders in the Piedmont and Arling
ton, my entire confidence in Dr. Kirkscey,
both as a gentleman and a business man,
and my belief that the company is one of
the soundest, as it is the largest in tho
Southern States.”
For the benefit of East Alabama policy
holders we are glad to know that the Doc
tor will keep a regular sub office in Colum
bus. Ho still retains Illinois, Indiana arid
Kentucky, with central office at Limit*
villo, Ky. Our people know the Doctor to
be a whole-souled, noble, generous fellow,
well deserving ail the patronage that the
people of Alabama can bestow on him.

A beautiful attachment has boon recent

wit and great beauty will make the Singer

Columbus (inurila Vllplou.
Yesterday afternoon tho rifle contest
between the City Light Guards and Co
lumbus Guards came off near the Villa
Reich. Tho Columbus Guards challenged
the City Lights about two weeks ago.
Both companies had a small number out
yesterday. The City Light Guards num
bered twenty-two and the Columbus
Guards sixteen. The Light Guards wore
llnftt on tho ground and eoon the Colum
bus Guards appeared under command of
Lieut. T. W. Grimes. The City Light
Guards wore commanded by Lieut. F. L.
Brooks.
After arranging preliminaries both com
panies prepared to shoot. It was doubled
that five of the Columbus Guards should
be allowed eight shots, four shots being
the regular number. This was done to
make the number of shots of the two com
panies even, the City Lights having five
more men than the Columbus Guards,
Each company had its target and the
firing of the two was carried on at the
same time. The distance was 200 yards.
Messrs Juke Burrus and W. E. Barnard
acted as Judges for the City Light Guards
and Messrs Jos. Hogan and Thomas Belg
ium for the Columbus Guards. Each man
was allowed four shots whether he hit the
target or not. Quito a crowd assembled
to witness the contest. A number of ladies
were on the grounds.
After the four rounds had been fired tlio
two companies were drawn up into line
and the judges made the following report:
Total number of j>ointß t/y Columbus
Guards, 105. Total number of points by
City Light Guards, 50.
Private F. M. Giuiby, of the Columbus
Guards, made the best average 12 out of
a possible 20. Private Toby Newman, of
the same company, made 11. Ensign It.
A. Wood, of the same company, was one
of the number who were allowed to repeat.
Ho made 10 both times. Private Dud Ca
rey made the best single shot in the Co
lumbus Guards, putting a ball exactly in
the centre of the bull’s eye.
Tho best average in the City Light
Guards was 7. This was modo by Pri
vates J. M. Strupper and Mark Wagner,
and Sergeant It. S. Greer. Greer and Wag
ner struck tho bull’s eye.
Tho City Light Guards had two slioU in
the bull’s oye; tho Columbus Guards one.
Neither of the companies has ever before
shot at so grrat a distance. They will both
do better next time.
After tho shooting, the companies
marched Into the city, stopping ut the
Virginia Grocery to partake of some deli
cious lemonade prepared for them by Mr.
T. J. McAdain, the genorotis and whole
souled proprietor. McAdarn Is a true son
of the “Old Dominion” State.
After the treat, the companies had a
dress parade on Broad street, under the
command or Lieut. F. L. Brooks, of the
City Light Guards. Both companies were
in full dress and looked well.

2,513 bales three weeks since, making the
total receipts since tho lirst of September,
1874, 3,477,278 bales, against 3,802,018 bales,
for the same period of 1873 74, showing a
decrease from September 1, 1874, of 324,-

Receipts of the same days at the inte
rior cotton ports were 805 bales against
1,452 for the same week last year. Ship

against 31,842.
Tho Chronicle'h visible supply table

the stocks have decreased 12.622 bales as
compared with last year.
Kut-es ut (lie Ml air Fair.
So long os the State Fairs in Georgia
weroinanagod by the cities in which they
wore hold, horse racing bore an important
part in the proceedings. There wore races
every day at tho last fair, and a great
number of horses wore entered. This year
tho Agricultural Society will have entire
control of the Fair and no prize for race
horses have boon offered. 'The citizens of
Macon, however, have taken t he matter in
hand and a number of private purses will
bo offered for races to take place at the
Fair. The Agricultural Society refuses to
allow the races to take place on the Fair
Ground racetrack during “official hours.”
Outside ol‘ this limit the gentlemen who
delight in the pleasures of tho turf can en
joy thorn to their hearts’ content.
The old race course at tho Laboratory
building will also bo put in good oilier,
and races can bo had there at any time.
The people of Macon know that races
would attract a much larger crowd to the
Fair than would otherwise attend, and
they will probably lie liberal in their offers
of purses.
It is said that a number of tine horses
from Kentucky will l>o on hand to enter
tho races.
Wo suppose Columbus will be represent
ed by “Spider,” who bore off the laurels at
the lust Fair. It is to be regretted that
there has been no prize offered for the
best drilled military company. The mar
tial fever is at its height in Georgia now,
and there would have been a large num
ber of entries for a SSOO prize. Perhaps
the failure to offer such a price this year
is ensued by the hard feeling which sprung
up between the companies of Atlanta and
Augusta, when the Ogelthorpos, of the lat
ter city, bore off tho palm. A tine military
display would add no little to the general
interest in the Fair. The ladies will be
very much disappointed when they lindno
brass buttons and gilt braid on the grounds.
Will not somebody l>o generous enough to
offer SSOO for the best drilled company,
and afford us the pleasure of swing the
dower of Georgia’s military at the com
ing Fair ?

Wonderful to tell! Muscogee county re

have seen half this number on one street
on a cold ruoonshiny night. We will wager
that one dog in three was not returned.
The Columbus Volunteers make good
use of these bright nights. They drill all
over our streets. They have the most Ir

Mount Zion, where the meeting ot the

Our river looks something like it did

Broad street was made beautiful yester

Why is It that many negroes had rather
live a half-starved existence in a city than
make a good, honest livelihood in the
country, where they have been reared?
Wo have no sympathy for hungry and
ragged negroes in cities. They can easily
better their condition if they will.
Our exchanges are full of snake stories,
some of which will bear a most liberal dis
count.
Little merchants are failing by the
score in the North and West. The talk
about Southern failures has played out.
Columbus expects a very large trade
from tho vicinity of Kufnulu. The farmers
down there don’t believe all they hear
about Columbus, but they come up to see
for themselves, and are sure to purchase
largely after they consult our merchants.
We arc proud of our Alabama trade.
Hon. Alex. H. Stephens destroyed an

The distillation of peach brandy has be

White Sulphur Springs is the only place

There will be very little change in gen

The “horrid men” made all sorts of fun
about pin-backs when they were all the

their departure, these same men are very
sad and plead for the continuance of the
“questionable” style.
“Fence or no fence," is the question
which is stirring up the farmers in some
sections of the State where timber is

Some of our State exchanges consider it
in good taste to announce every birth that
occurs within ten miles of their place of
publication. They all have a stereotyped
announcement which runs somewhat in
this style: “He weighs ten pounds; parts
his hair in the middle, and writes his
name Singleton Snodgrass, Jr.” “Give us
a rest.”

Our River*.
The rivers in Georgia arc much better
adapted to purposes of navigation than is
generally supposed. There seems to tie
more attention directed to them now than
ever before. A steamboat is soon to be
run on the Oconee river from the Georgia
Railroad bridge to Fontenov Mills, 25
miles distant. This project will be a
great benefit to the people on the route.
There are other rivers in the Stab* which ■
may be utilized beyond wluit is now
dreamed of.
False Rumor.
The rumor circulated on the streets last

(ow Thieve*.
The police are after the cow thieves
again. Yesterday Policemen Whit Smith
1 and Hoffman arrestod a negro named Bill
Williams, who sells beef at tho foot of
Wynn's Hill. He is hand In glove with
Bill Gattls, the famous negro cow thief
who was arrestod here some time ago,
and released a few days afterwards, be
cause no prosecutor appeared, and the po
lice had no evidenco against him. Tiie ne
gro arrested last night has made some
rather full confessions. It apiiears that
Gattls stole the cattle and killed them,
while Williams sold the boef. Gattls, not
long ago, sold a fine milch cow for $4. The
police can recover her, and she will bo re
stored if proof of ownership is given.
Last night, Oapt. Tiff Moore and Police
man Whit Smith went in search of Gattis,
who will bo re-arrestod. This time there
will lie proof against him.
We are glad our policemen are making
such a raid on these rascally cow thieves.
Bring them all to justice.

The negro Jim Jones, who aas arrested

released yesterday, as no evidenco could
be found, though it is very certain he stole

it.

HEARTY. BLOOMING WIDOW.
Marietta, Ga., March 9,1870.
MeSttrn. BrailJicUl *1 Cos.:
Gentlemen—You will please ship us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward lull by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
better satisfaction Uinn any article we
sell. We have been selling it since 1868,
and witnessed many remarkable cures by
it. Among others, there was a lady
friend of ours who was sallow and sickly
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 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 according to di
rections. It has cured her sound and
well, brought tier regular monthly jwri
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
physicians and spent a great deal of
money without any benefit. Wishing you
gnat success with your valuable reme
dies, we are, respectfully yours, etc.,
W. lUk>t A s.

Jordan's Joyous Julep.
A Specific for Neuralgia.
TESTIMONIALS.
Peteb*>bl*iw. Va., Jan. 20tb, 1875.
John L. Jordan. Eaq.—Dear Sir: So well pleased
am I with j'our Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes
tify to the superior merit of your unequaled
preparation for Neuralgia. I shall esteem my
self happy should even one of that worst of all
cla*ses of sufferers be led through me to take the
Julep. My wife has for ten (10) years been a mar
tyr to the most malignant an.l insistent neural
gic torture, without being able to find any relief
except from your preparation. She was relieved
by the second dose a* per directions, and has not
had a return of it for two months. To some I
may seem strangely sanguine about your medi
cine. but I have a right to be so. It is not rea
sonable to suppose this malignant malady would
have died of sheer exhaustion of capacity for
sustaining itself, and that to*) in a minute, and
the very minute your medicine was taken. If so,
it is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, aud
I prefer giving the credit in your favor of the
beet testimony man can ever have—experience.
Vary truly yours,
JAMES T. TOSH.
Columbus. January 16, 1875.
Mr.Jordan. —l take great pleasure in recom
mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia,
has produced a moat wonderful relief in one oi
the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter
ever has bad. She haa been treated for it by
three skillful physiciaus. with very little benefit,
and used all the usual remedies with little suc
cesa. I can with much confidence hope for a per
manent cure. It is only two days since we began
the use of It. and it is apparently of permanent
benefit. Ysurs, with respect.
