All who have visited Opelika recently, agree in the verdict that it is destined to be a large and flourishing city at no very distant day. It seems to possess tho vital, moving spirit of progress. Improvements are constantly going on. It Is said that no less than six brick store-houses are to lie erected on the principal business street this fall. This speaks well for the enter prise of tho young city. If It continues at this rate the day is not far off when it will rank as one of the first cities of Alabama. Tho trade of Opelika is said to bo increas ing every year at a rapid rate. Her cotton receipts are becoming quite important, and grow larger every season. Tho city is blessed with a large number of solid business men, some of whom possess a large amount of capital. While Opelika Is growing, still we think it is growing sure ly and solidly, and is not springing up by means of artificial stimulants, it has two railroads, and will thus huvo the ail van tage of Columbus in the matter of freights —for while wo have throe railroad outlets and a line of .boats, they are all con trolled by one company. GKNKBAXa COM) 17ITT. HE SPEAKS AT ELAM CHURCH TO-MOKKHW. CGen. Colquitt will speak at Kingsboro to day. To-morrow he will speak at Elam Church, on the old Muscogee Camp Ground, near Squire Jenkins place, on the Talbotton road. Vehicles to carry per sons out and bring them back can bo ob tained at Lynch k Bye's Mill. If a hun dred names are left with ('apt. C. A. Redd to-day, a train will be chartered on the ♦Southwestern Road which will carry par tit's from tho city nearly to the place of tho shaking. We hear that a large num ber of Columbus people will be on hand. Dry Good* ( Wholesale. The public is by this time generally aware that a large wholesale dry goods house has just been established in Colum bus and that it intends to do an exclusive ly wholesale business, keeping always on hand a stock sufficiently large to meet any of tho demands of trade. Messrs. Wolf son and Moses, who com pose the new firm, are well known mer chants and have acquired a thorough ex perience hi ull brunches of tho dry goods business. They have seen the need of Co lumbus for more wholesale houses and have therefore determined to open an ex clusively wholesale dry goods house. Their stock will at all times be found very large and complete, and will furnish all that will be demanded by the trade which comes to Columbus. Mr. Wolfson is now in New York purchasing the remainder of the stock with which tin* store will lx? tilled. He has been there for tho past two months, and has succeeded in making most favorable arrangements, which will enable the firm to offer superior induce ments to tho trade. The large stock has been bought from the factories and the importers. It comes from no jobbing es tablishment and is not offered for sale with three or four profits addod to it. It is bought from llrst. hands and will be sold at a reasonable profit. Country merchants, no matter how largely they purchase, can always find ample material at this wholesale store to stock their wholo establishment. They can be sure of getting New York prices. They will bo furnished with goods at figures fully as low' as those offered them by jobbers and can select their goods with much more certainty and satisfaction. The house is exclusively wholesale, and to those who purchase by the quantity they can offer rare inducements. There is no reason why merchants should not buy their goods at home when they can be bought at the same figures as at the North. Tho large stock of Messrs. Wolfson k Moses Is arriving every (lay. They already have tho first floor of their store well filled and not one-third of the entire stock has yet arrived. They have rented both floors and will occupy every bit of the man they have. Besides staple dry goods, they will keep on hand a large stock of hats, shoes, and notions of all kinds. In a few days the stock will be complete and those who wish to purchase dry goods for the fall trade should call in and examine it. Mr. 8. Landauer, formerly proprietor of the "New York Store,” is in the employ of the firm as head salesman. He is an ex perienced dry goods merchant. Tho firm expects a largo trade at once, and we do not think they will bo disappoint'd. Oeunilu II u( iit(l on at tlto Centennln I. It is probable that the Georgia Military will be represented at the Centennial after all. Capt. Clarke, of Oglethorpe Cos. B, of Augusta, has written to Capt. Hender son, of the Atlanta Cadets, suggesting that a battalion be formed of the Atlanta Cadets and Oglethorpe Cos. B, of Augusta, tho Savannah Cadets, and one of tho Ma con companies, for tho purpose of going to tho Centennial. Ho further suggests that Gov. James M. Smith be solicited to go in command of the battalion. Tho proposition has met; with great fa vor in the Gate City, and large sums have already been offered by citizens to pay the oxpeuses of tho company. It seems very probable that the project will be carried out. Wo soo no reason why more compa nies from Georgia cannot go. If one of our companies were added to the number already named, it would be bettor. We would like to see a Columbus company at the Centennial. Perhaps we may. If the companies go, it is very certain that they will have to defray their own expenses, as the State is in no condition to pay them, and the Legislature is not disposed to do 80. llet tinted. Tuesday afternoon quite a party return ed to tho city from Pino Knot Springs. They report that they left number of pooplo there, who seemed to bo enjoying tho time very much. We hear that sever al persons will go down to-day. Many who are now there say that they Intend to remain until frost. We don't envy these roaorters now. We have just as good weather as anybody.

To all who foci an interest in Immigra tion and who wish to encourago it to come to our Htato and section all statistics of the bureau of immigration! will provo of interest. The last report of tho bureau contains the figures of Immigration for tho last fiscal year. Tho arrivals In 1875 wore 217,- 377; in 1874, 313,339—decrease, 54,92. Eng land sent us 40,098; Ireland, 37,155; Scot land, 7,308; Germany, 47,700; Austria, 6,- 882; Sweden, 5,573; Norway, 6,093; France, 8,315; Italy, 3,570; Bussia, 7,982; China, 10,433; Canada, 18,054: horn at sea, 55. There are many among our citizens who think that tho greatest prosperity of our State cannot to attained until immigra tion Is encouraged and pours freely Into our State. Very little effort has yet been made In Georgia to induce immigration. The subject grows more important every day and, fortunately, la commanding. Xtw Elevntwr. Messrs. J. kJ. Kaufman have just had a very large elevator put into their whole sale grocery house in this city, at a cost of S3OO. By means of It, a half a car load of freight can be raised from the cellar to the third story in throe minutes. Tho ele vator is finely constructed and works nicely. If all the business houses in the city had elevators it would be much better. They would not only save time, labor and money, but would do away with -tho nui sance of cellar doors which make Brtxvd street look like the principal avenue of a country town. They disfigure our side walks, and make no little inconvenience. With good pavement, neat tree boxes, and no cellar doors on the sidewalk, Broad street would present a very handsome ap pearance. YYhut AdvrrtUlti* Doe*. Sometime since Messrs. J. P. Dromgoole k Cos., of Louisville, advertised their fa mous English Female Bitters in the Times. Yesterday Dr. J. J. Mason, who is agent for the bitters at this place, received an order from a gentleman who resides be i yond Montgomery, for Some of the bitters. He wrote that he had seen the advertise ment in the Times, and wanted to test the virtue of the bitters. Tins is one of the instances of the bene ficial results of advertising, which Occurs every day. Those who do not advertise are not heard of far beyond the front doors of their stores. Rif nl li of Mr*, ilwlin 11. I'art*r. On yesterday afternoon at 6 o’clock, Mrs. Lucretia L., wife of Mr. John D. Carter, died at her homo in this city. She was a good woman and her loss will be sadly fell in the coumunity. The funeral notice will be given in tin next issue of this paper. Church Aci i-mlihi*. During the late revival in Talbotton seventy-one persons Joined the various churches. Of this number sixty-six joined the Methodist Church, four joined the Baptist and one tho Presbyterian. The revival seemed to take tho wholo town. Such a revival was never known there be fore, and Itsoflecte will long be felt. The Pink of Propriety says tho way the : girls now have of clasping their hands around a gentleman's arm when they are walking at night is “awful." We cannot see the force of the objection. This mode of clasping enables the gentleman to j form a very correct judgment as to the I “dear creature's” weight, without the i embarrassment of asking her. We have j not heard any objection from the male side yet. Hnn- Kali. Yesterday a picked nine from Atlanta played a match game of ball with a picked nine from Alabama, at West Point. Kxeur ; sion trains from several points earrlod spectators. Wo have not heard the result, i but will take the responsibility of announc ing a victory for the Georgia nine. Niijoi-'i Court. Yesterday His Honor, T. E. Blanchard, I Mayor pro tom., presided at the Mayor's i Court. Martha Upshaw was summoned | to appear and answer a charge of retail ling liquor without license. She failed to j come and was fined $5. How to Keep Ant* Out f Siiaur. | A gentleman informed us yesterday t hat there was only one sure means of keeping ; ants ont of sugar. He says oyster shells j washed dean and laid in with the sugar j in tho box or barrel will keep off these lit tle posts. They bother housekeepers no little, and this receipt is worth trying.

A Witty Columbus youth, who wssasked to drink syllabub at a party exclaimed: “Drink syllabub! Why I had just as soon lay under the moon and chaw the shad ows.” They say Christopher, of the Fort Val ley Mirror, is going to do something very desperate soon. We are not at liberty to make any further disclosures. Our “literati” are awaiting impatiently for the appearance of Mrs. Wilson’s “In feiici.” Tho public expects great things of this work, and it will surely meet with a very large sale.

A genial soul in Georgia whoso fifth wife was killed by the tornado of last March, has married his sixth, and is ready for more hard weather. When freedom from her mountain height unfurled her standard to the air, her skirts pinned-back so very tight made her ap)>ear exceedingly spare. Ex-Judge Schley, of Savannah, had a lively rencontre at Saratoga last Thurs day with a Massachusetts man named Kcrnoehan. The latter slapped Judge Schley in the face, and that gentleman punished his insnionce with a severe thrashing. We are betting on Georgia blood. Gold garter buckles upon which there is a delicate spray of flowers in stones of suitable color, or the owner’s monogram, is the latest in that line. Deer hunting is the popular amusement in East Alabama. If anybody will guar antee the deer a party of Columbus hunts men will go down and enjoy the royal sport. “T." writes to a friend in this city, ~"I have met a girl who just suits my fancy. She is a charming creature. True, she is just a little cross-eyed and don’t bother herself abouf any book fashioners. She may not be acquainted with all the follies of female fashion, but withal she is a charming girl. P. S. I forgot to mention that ‘pater famillas’ is worth $200,000, and Jemima is his only child.” Those who contend that the world is getting worse are referred to tho instance of a man who yesterday went voluntarily and paid a debt he had owed for seven years and which his creditor would have sold for ten cents in the dollar. White suits, for ladies, are now in greater favor at the summer resorts than at any other time since their introduction.

We ! are happy to state that this remedy gives better satisfaction than any article we sell. We have been soiling it since 1808, 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 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 vour Regulator, costing her only three dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without, any benefit.
