On Friduy flight Mr. J.O. ('haliniuß, u Well known builder and contractor in this city, took a doHC of thirty grains of mor phine, which (AUBod hla dcatii at 2 o'clock yeetenlay. Friday night ho Merit around to leveral drug BtoiCß aud procured tho <moniiouß quantity of morphine. While jilH wife wan in tho dluiug-room preparing upfwr ho took the whole of thirty grnian. IIIh wife heard him groan ing atYiight and found him lying on a b *J in his rrxrm in an unconscious state. He ha<l thrown the boxes which contained the <loh*3 lnb*a wash tub, from which it was ofturwurd taken. Medical aid was cahoii at once. Dr. T. J. Word soon arrived and did all in his power, but it was very evi dent that there was no hope. The uncon scious man was lying in n terribly dis torted position. Counter poisous were in jected into the arm at once. The stomach pump would not have done any good as the morphine had passed into the system. All that medical skill could accomplish was done, but still the contortions and un known sufferings of the poor man con tinued. He was found in a state of coma and remained so until yesterday at two o’clock, when lie died. Tho circumstances of the taking of the morphine are not known. Chalmers told iiis wife thut he intended to take it to make him sleep, but she paid very little attention to him. It is said he had been drinking a good deal of into and was very nervous. Of course each must form his own conjectures os to the intention with which the act whs done. It is rmsonable to suppose ho knew such uii enormous dose would kill him. The UnitoUSlates Medical Dispensatory proscrilsjs a dose of morphine at from 1-16 to /i a grain. Rarely l / t a grain is given. Bo the unfortunate man took about one hundred and fifty average doses. Borne conjecture that his Unanoial trou bles caused hirn to take this terriMe meth od of relief. His wife says that u few months ago, after he had been drinking u good deal, he took eight grains, and did not seem U* suffer seriously from the efTeotofit. Wo hear that he was in the lmblt of taking morphine when he was nervous or rest less. The dose which causod his death is supposed to have been sufficient to have endangered tho lives of fifty men, if it would not have killed them. Mr.Chalmers was a Scotchman by birth, but has lived in America for many years, lie was an old citizen of Coiumbus, aud was once most extensively engaged in contracting and building hero. He drew the plan of our opera house. A large num ber of the best buildings in our city were erected under his supervision. He was a very superior workman, and a man of ex traordinary ability. Recently he has not boon engaged so heavily in building. A day or two before his death ho was making preparations to go to Jacksonville, Fla. lie was about forty-live years of age at the time of his death. He leaves a wife and two children. He bore a good charac ter in the city, and was well known in the surrounding country as a fine builder and contractor. We hear that he will be buried to-day, from his former residence, opposite the Catholic Church. This sad event, In aM its horror, is anoth er evidence of the pernicious effect of strong drink. Without tills, it would nev er have happened. ATTRMPTKU KJlC'llia A U) Mwnlluwi (Mi Ounc* of I.iiHmmunt. WHISKEY AT THE Ik/iTOM OF IT ALL. Yesterday afternoon one of the boldest attempts at self destruction which ever came to our knowledge was made in tills city. It nppears that Thomas Names, a youth about sixteen years of age, recently got drunk and the fact came to his father’s knowledge. Mr. Thomas Names, Sr., keeps a grocery store on Crawford street and is said to be a clover gentleman. He severe ly lectured his son for his drunkenness, but did not chastise him. Tho boy was very sulky after tho lecture aud yesterday afternoon he made a desperate effort to end iiis troubles in death, lie procured a prescription for an ounce of laudanum and went to Dr. F. L. Brooks’ drug store to obtain it. He stuhxl that he wished it for his mother, who was sick. Having obtained the laudanum ho walked quietly to his home, which is over his father’s store, and while seated in t he midst of the family drank the whole of the ounce of laudanum. Dr. F. A. Stanford was called at once, aud by giving powerful emetics he caused the boy to vomit He was conscious uii tho time, though so weak ho could scarce ly speak. Last night ho so far recover ed as to be able to walk about The act was done with a coolness and a calculation that makes it terrible. The idea of a sixteen year old boy making a determined effort at suicide is horrible. We find as tho prime cause of this sad oc currence, that prolific source of woe and trouble—whiskey. It makes even a boy dare things that might make the cheek of a hardened villain turn pale. Who will dare to say that whiskoy is not the source of more than half the misery, the woo, ami the suffering In the world? Thus, In tho space of ono day, have we seen in our own city two terrible examples of what it makes M, and to what, desperation it leads them. C'wrlouK. Ed Terry, of tonsoriii! notoriety, is hav ing a well dug on his lot, and the men who are working on it canto across a curiosity last Friday. While digging at n depth of forty feet they found a well-preserved piece of sweet-gum bark imbedded in the dirt . About two foot below this point they found water. How the piece of bark came to he at that depth the well-diggers could not guess, and it might purzlemanya better developed brain to tell. Active. We passed tho shoe store of Messrs. l*ope &. Long yesterday, and taking a glance within, saw fifteen or twenty per sons waiting to tie fitted to shoes. The store presented a cheering seene of activ ity- Mosers.

Wo notice that Mr. William Meyor, tho jK)pular boot-maker, will soon occupy tho store next to J. Newman’s cigar store. Tho store is being repaired and painted inside. We learn It will bo handsomely arranged. Mr. J. H. Jones has an old store, but ho is making it look now. Tho exterior looks quite changed since its new coat of paint and the neat marking oft of the brick. Tho interior will soon be greatly Improved, and the front will bo adorned with a hand some pair of glass doors and show win dows. Wq are glad to note these improvements in tho business circles of the city. They evidence life and activity. Wo heard yesterday that two or three more stores would bo opened on Brood street before the fall trade sots in. Let them come. AIJ those vacant store rooms ought to be filled before the close of the year, so that if trade increases, os all hope, there will boa demand for new store houses—a demand that has not been made in Columbus in many a day. Expre** r’ompnulea. The large increase recently made in the business of tho Southern Express Compa ny, of this city, has been effected very gen erally wherever that company lias offices, anjl it is fast incoming a dangerous rival to the older and wealthier companies of the North and West. Tho two great Express Companies of the country the Adams and the American -employ about H.ooo men, 1,900 horses, I, wagons, aud use 3,000 iron safes. Their agents travel 100,000 miles daily, or more than 32,000,000 miles yearly. These llgures indicate a prodigious business, and the Southern Express Company must yet bo considerably behind In strength. With its present manugqmeqt and increasing pttjrofuige it may ysfc pbako zhim giant* tremble. (Comm u u i rate a nd. Editorh Timen: In yesterday morning’s Enquirer-Sun the rumor was spread abroad by the “Truthful .Joqma” of that paper Brother DeVotfe—that Browns ville was lawless. How came it lawless ?

Mr. Myer Strauss, who is connected with the clothing house of S. Strauss, will leave on the Western Railroad this morn ing for New York. He will stop in Balti more and Philadelphia, on his way to the metropolis. He intends to purchase one of the best and most complete stocks of clothing and gentlemen's furnishing goods over brought to this city. Mr. Strauss is preparing for a heavy fail and winter trade. Mr. Francis Fontaine, associate editor of the Times, has gone to North Georgia, and will remain a week. Mr. C. D.

On account of the absence of the pastors there will bo no preaching at St. Luke or the Baptist Church this morning. Rev. J. O. Branch will preach at St. Paul Church this morning, at the usual hour.

Preaching at the Presbyterian Church this morning, at the usual hour, by Rev. J. H. Null, the pastor. Regular Sunday services at the Catholic Church.

Tho only harm wo wish the man who quarrels because every paper is not chock full of new and interesting matter is, that, he should be condemned to got up the ma terial for a paper a tew times.

They are U's giiuiing to consider the art of making bis cuit and a good cup of ooftV*? as accom plishments to be proud of.

A Columbus youth takes buggy rides for his health, but w<j notice that ho never rides alone, perhaps he does this for his health, too, Tho legion of. loafers displayed itself | well yesterday. Every lamp-poet sup ported at least three, and every nice shady corner sheltered a dozen. There’s nothing 1 like taking life easy. If a fellow intends to try the business of editing a newspaper, he had better prac tice writing in a saw-mill or on a freight train. Wo mention this as a fine discipli nary exercise. Work on tiie store formerly occupied by Bedell A Ware is going on at a rapid rate, and soon all traces of the fire will l>o gone. The firm will move back in about throe weeks and open their shoe business again. There are two tilings that Union Springs especially boasts of her couple of news papers and her base ball club. Tennyson's new drama, “Queen Mary,” is creating A great stir among Urn literati on both continents. When Columbia* gets her ready made clothing factory* she will load the State in two departments. Col. Henry D. Capers of Oxford has been appointed General agent for Georgia of the Centennial Board of Finance. We fear he will not find our people very lavish in their contribution*. They cannot af ford it. Edwin Booth’s broken bones are not in his “sword arm” and he can fight the battle of “Bosworth Field” with as much fierce energy as ever. He will soon be well. Strong. Some man says “you might as well try to stuff butter down a wild cat’s throat with a hot awl os to force contrac tion on the people of the South and West." That manjwas surely an “inflated” orator. We wish somebody would buy the North and Soutfi and complete it to Atlan ta. A completion to LaGrange would be better than the presnt State of affairs, and some young men in this city would not care whether it went any further or not. Atlanta, determin'd to l<3ad Georgia on the sensational line, is organizing an ex pedition to the Black Hills. Col. Wiiidby will command the party and has already ! ordered his uniform. Wa hoe! The youngest brother of Gott&chalk will travel through the country with an opera troupe tins winter. He is a fine basso. European writers fix up American life in gay style. Dumas has a novel the plat of which is laid in this country and hi it describes a coon chasing a couple of lovers up a tree and then trying to get at them by gnawing through the trunk. He says the Virginia coon is as large as a yearling calf. Somebody says the best way to rebuke the Illinois fanatics U for some comity in Georgia to elect Gen. Sherman to speak at its fair. Cannot human ingenuity do-1 vise some meanqof rebuke that will do as well and not cost so much? A gentleman in this city loaned some body two volumes of Cooper's novels which he prizes very highly. lie has for gotten who has them, but would be much obliged for their return. Read all the advertisements in to-day’s Times. Thomas Jefferson said that he al ways read all the advertisements in a newspaper and enjoyed them as much as any other department of it. We counted ten Collectors in a row yes terday, and like the Roman Consnl in Macauley’s poem, the look of each was sad and tho voice of each was low. They are off to College Monday about four Columbus youths. Success to them in the noble effort to acquire an education. The show windows of our dry goods stores are quite attractive now. There is an abundant supply of beautiful striped stockings. They say they have caught Moody in a I ‘‘deviation from the truth," and we don’t j care about seeing him down this way. Next Tuesday the fall will begin. We have had autumn weather all this month, and consequently do not feel enthusiastic over the advent of thut season. Watt A Walker will receive an Immense supply of bagging in a few days. They have a large quantity already on hand. We believe that more credit is extendini in Columbus than any other city in Geor- j gia. Therefore our army of collectors is j a logical consequence. There are several families of Primitive Baptists near Columbus. These little ware in South America, of which the telegraph Informs ua* arc not more respectable than an .American elec tion riot. Colombia and Panama have gone at it now. Watch out for your gin-house. This time last year they were burnt by the score. It is about time for these farm il luminations to begin again. Some engineers have to jflay on those roaming col topes, yclept locomotives. We hoard one blow, the other night, twenty nine minutes with scarcely any cessation. Even the watchman’s midnight bell is preferable. Dangerous counterfeit SIOO bills are floating around. Toll a man this, and you get a vacant stare; but tell him that bo gus nickels are abundant, and you arouse him at once. When the new boats get on the river our wharf will be the scone of activity and business. May Agnes Fleming’s last is ‘‘Norine’s Revenge,” instead of “Nome's” feeling of t in' same kind, as our intelligent composi tor had it yesterday. An did negro told us yesterday that the j best investment he ever made was voting the Democratic ticket in 1872. He says since that time pernio and plenty have l>een his. This is a rule which admits of no okceptiohs. The down-town ghost appeared again the other night. Wo thought the “darned” thing had pegged oat.

We , are happy to state that tills remedy gives better satisfaction than 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.

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- i ing widow—-with the use of but two bot tles of your Regulator, citing her only three dollars, when she hod tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without any benefit.

The Cordial Balm of Syricum is effectual in promoting the secretion of the wa- j tery aud tiunutrlLous portions of the food, aud in carrying it off by its proper outlets. Whatever portion of our food is unserviceable should be passed off in the water in sweat, aud from the bowels. If these, useless matters are retained disease is sure to follow, for then tlie blood becomes poisoned with impurities which should pass off in their proper channels.

(Davenport Democrat, Davenport, lows.} How few people are found without some Indi cations of nervous disease. This truth has hern . recognized ever since classic ages, when a sound ■ mind m a sound body was held as the perfectsn of human existence.
