Wup|MfMl Suicide*.
There can be no doubt that a groat
many accidental deaths arc clasHod as su
icicles. On this subj<*ct, as on all others,
people hold widely different views. There
are some people who never attribute any
death Li intention, and will iiot believe
the most deliberate act of self-dee traction
to Ist a suicide. If they woro to see a man
draw a pistol and blowout his own brains
they would produce a thousand argu
ments b> prove that he did not know the
pistol was loaded, or was ignorant of
some other fact which deprives the act of
any inLmtion or deliberation. No case
can bo so plain, no evidence so conclusive,
that they will lie convinced that a sane
man deliberately kills himself. There is
another sensational class who catch at
every mysterious circumstance of a death,
and magnify it into a deliberate, cool sui
cide. Every man who flies by accident,
and away from the eyes of witnesses is
put down by them as a self-destroyer.
They never admit the possibility of acci
dent, or casualty, but have a rule Into
which they wrench all instances that
come under their observation, no matter
how hard they aro to fit in.
Tho true rule to apply lies between these
two extremes. It seems, however, that
the public generally chooses to act with
the sensational class, and make a great
clamor over every death around which
there hangs the veil of mystery, or which
gives the least appearance of deliberate
intention.
Hensations are the order of the day, and
any thing which can assume a sensational
form Is made so much tho sweeter to a
vitiatod Lists.
Tho greatest newspapers in the country
seem L> seise the details of crime with an
inhuman avidity, and actually L> gloat
over the abandoned wickedness and mal
ice of weak iiu man nature. A column of
casualties and crime, with a dozen heads
in huge black letters, and a great array
of exclamation points, seems now to Is*
the thought n<*cessary L> the constitution
of an interesting newspaper. Public taste,
miserably vitiated as it is, craves the
unwholesome pabulum, and the public
press, too, often supplies in such enor
mous quantities, and prepared with sue)}
exquisite delicacy, that the desire is con
stantly for something more startling;
something tliat will be more palatable to
popular taste. Such papers may be said
to be leading the people on to a higher ap
preciation of tho romance ot crime. It
really pleases the people more to read a
paper full of catastrophes, casualties,
crimes of all kinds, than one which speaks
of the flourishing condition of trade, crops,
the progress of religion, the advance
ment of education, or the founding of asy
lums and hospitals. No wonder that
newspaper men have been pictured
as calculating the profit In
dollars and cents to themselves
of the last murder, or railroad catastrophe.
They know they are In possession of a
treasure for which tho public will pay a
high price, and like all traders they calcu
late how much they can possibly make
out of the operation. It is a purely com
mercial operation ami falls under the laws
of trade.
The public and the press are thus re
acting on each other, and the result is an
increasing sensationalism In journalism,
and an increasing love for it in tiie public.
Which is most to blame ? The press meets
the clamorous demands of the public and
meets them each time so fully that the
next demand will be for something more
oxhilirating, more “enjoyable” in the hor
rid phraseology of popular sensational
ism. This course of things is Lbe regret
ted, and oughtsL> bo shocked. That is a
work whose difficulty can only be known
by an attempt L> accomplish it.
Fortunately for us this sensationalism
Is oonlined, us yet, L) Northern and West
ern journalism. It has not yet spread its
blight over the South. Here private af
fairs are still sacred, public taste is In a
measure, at least, pure, and we do not
think any journalist smacks his lips over
human blood as he thinks how his tale of
Its shedding will bring him a rich return
of dollars and cents. While wo are free
from this, still there is sometimes seen one
or two evidences of a love of sensation
alism, which is in contrast with the gener
al character of our people. Those slight
inclinations ought always to be chocked
by tho press and by public opinion.
While on this subject we will state that
the sad death, which occurred in this city
last Saturday is believed by all the friends
of the doceosod to have boon purely acci
dental. The unfortunate man had been
suffering for sometime with intense pain
and could And no relief for it. He had an
nounced his intention to several friends to
seek relief from his pain. Having once be
fore taken a largo dose of morphine and
experiencing no serious results, and being
ignorant of the power of that poison, he
took the enormous quantity which caused
his death. He had made all his arrange
ments to go to Jacksonville in a day or
two.
The desperation caused by pain often
makes men forget discretion, and sock re
lief by very violent, means.

Freights.
Tho American Grocer has a long article
on freights, in which it is asserted that
freights from New York Li the South have
recently l>oen so reduced that Southern
; merchants will And It to their interest to
purchase from the metropolis, and not go
L> Eastern or Western markets. Colum
bus is not specified In the article as one of
the cities which enjoy reduced freights.
Atlanta, Augusta, Macon and Rome are
mentioned. Perhaps tho same favors
have not been extended L> Columbus as to
these more fortunate cities. One thing
seems certain: our present freight ar
rangements are unfortunate and work
hardship to our merchants. Is thore no
remedy ? We clip tho following from the
article to which we alluded above:
At no time since the war have Western
and Southern merchants been able to got
as low freights as during the past sum
mer, and as will undoubtedly be the ease
the approaching fall and winter. The dif
ferences between Col. Scott, of the Penn
sylvania Itailroad, and Mr. Garrett, of the
Baltimore A Ohio Railroad, seem to have
been deep-rooted, and at the time the Bal
timore A Ohio Railroad withdrew from
tho Pennsylvania Railroad and com
menced transporting their freight by
steamer via Baltimore, very few seemed
D think that this move would affect mate
rially freights on the three? trunk lines;
but the result lias been that Western mer
chants have l**?n enabled to get their
goods at about one-half of what they were
accustomed to pay. Tho rates, as estab
lished now, are upon the basis of fiOc. first
class L>Chicago, 111.; 60c. to Louisville,
Ky.; ami 67c. to Saint Louis, Mo. It is
claimed by railroad men that tho tariff as
recently established by the trunk lines,
the Baltimore A Ohio agreeing, is a move
for the ultimate establishment of the tariff
of 1H74, which was 75 cents for first-class
freight to Chicago, but we are rather un
der the impression that the little lesson
learned from just this kind of action last
year (which was the sole cause of the fight
between the Baltimore A Ohio and Penn
sylvania railroads) will have theeflVs-tte
induce tin? railroad companies toestablish
a reasonable tariff, so that they may be
enabled L> make money, and at the same
time allow merchants to get their goods
home without having to pay freight,
amounting, as lias formerly been the case,
L> nearly the original cost of the goods.
Our city has the advantage over either
Boston, Baltimore, or Philadelphia in
point of freights, as has repeatedly been
shown during the past summer. For in
stance, while merchants purchasing in
Baltimore were com pci led L> pay 20 cents
l>er 100 lbs. on sugar to Chicago, the same
article could le contracted for at 16 cents
per 100 lbs. from New York, and taking
into consideration the advantagrs of our
market over either Baltimore or BosL>n,
the natural result has been that New York
during the past year lias controlled five
eighths of the distributing trade, In groee
eeries at least, that has heretofore gone to
other markets.
We will not enlarge upon the reasons
why this market can afford to sell goods
cheaper than the other Eastern cities, fur
ther than L> say as a matter of fact that
the larger the volume of business done
and the greater the faeilittes offered, the
more moderate? tho profits tliat are neces
sary L> do tiie business.
While the present freights may seem to
have been advanced they are in reality
about the same on the lower classes as
heretofore, and we can confidently expect
them L> remain as they are during the fall
and winter, if not longer. They certainly
will not go higher, and they may, at any
moment, be done away with altogether,
and the system of cutting and contracting
again resorted to.
Ratos via Charleston, Savannah and
other seaport lines, remain firm under the
“pooling combination,” an arrangement
for tho maintenance of high rates, but wo
ar pleased L S4?e that some of tiie lines
have remained out, and freights may is*
gotten to Atlanta. Augusta, Macon, Rome,
Ac., as cheap now as from either Balti
more or Boston.

The demand for Dr. J. Broditeld’s Fe
male Regulator is beyond precedent in
the annals of popular remedies. Orders
come in so thick and fast that the Propri
etor has, heretofore been unable L> fill
them all. He is happy to state that ar
rangements are now complete by which
! he is prepared to manufacture Female
Regulator on a scale equal to the emer
gency, and the public may feel assured
that their wants may now lx* supplied.
Physicians of high repute are using this
great remedy, in daily practice, all over
j Georgia. Hereafter no woman need suf
j fer from suppressed, suspended or irreg
ular menstruation. This valuable rneui
| cine is prepared by L. li. BnuiUeid, Drug
' gist, Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per
j bottle by druggists throughout America
HEARTY BLOOMING W IDOW.
Marietta, Ga., March 9, 1870.
Mrtotrn. MrudfitUl dc Cb. •’
Gentlemen—You will pleas** ship us an
; other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
j better satisfaction than any article we
i sell. We have been selling it since 1868,
I and witnessed many remarkable cures by
' it. Among others, there was a lady
i friend of ours who was sallow and sickly
i 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
stere 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 hut two bot
tles of your Regulator, costing her only
throe dollars, when she had tried several
physicians and spent a great deal of
money without any benefit. Wishing you
great success with your valuable reme
dies, we are, respectfully yours, etc.,
