NO HOF* FOB HIH ItKOOVKRY. Y*ter<lay at Opelika, an the Columbia* train under care of Conductor Webotor, backed on tho Columbus switch, a serious, If not mortal accident occurred. From all we can gather MIL DOW WILLIS and a negro man wore sitting near the track conversing, when the train backed on the switch. While the train was still in motison Mr. Willis attempted to BUN UNDER THE CAB and had reached the opposite side, when ho was caught by the front wheel of the baggage car and run over by one wheel. The beam of the brake crushed him con siderably. As soon as tho train could be stopped he was taken out, HORRIDLY CRUSHED. Dr. MoCoy was soon on hand and did for the unfortunate man oil in his power. He was found to be very severely In jured, his thigh being crushed and In juries of a serious nature on his body. Tho doctor pronounced tho case HOPELESS, and with a slight chance to recover. The mangled man was well cared for by tho rail road authorities, who hud him re moved upon a litter tea place of com fort. THE WOUNDED MAN Is named Doc Willis, and lives in Tal lapoosa county. Yesterday morning he arrived In Opelika on a visit, and intend ed returning to his home that same even ing. It was described as a sad spectacle, and an unfortunate alTulr. The rail road officials are In no way to blame, but the responsibility must not rest upon the unfortunate man. It seems that peo ple will never see the danger In sitting on rail roads and in trying to pass under the cars in motion. COI XTY COURT. SEPTEMBER TERM -FOURTH DAY. Court met at half-past 8 o'clock.

Crawford as the successor of Judge James Johnson has created considerable com ment by all the papers in the Btate. With out a single exception we believe these comments are of the most complimentary character. The Atlanta Omstitution of Tuesday has a long editorial on the appointment, in which It Is very highly commended. Ar ticles of a similar nature have appeared in a largo number of other papers. The At lanta Commonwealth Herald expresses the general opinion when it says: “The ap pointment of Hon. Martin J. Crawford to fill the place of Judge James Johnson, of the Chattahoochee Circuit is giving tho greatest satisfaction throughout the State.’’ It is very seldom that an appointment gives such universal satisfaction. It must be the source of great satisfaction to Judge Crawford to know that; he is so acceptable to the people, not only of this circuit but of the whole State. Benefits of a Railroad.— The growth of Gainesville, Georgia, in population and business since the completion of the Rich mond A Atlanta Air Line Railroad, on which tt, is located, has been quite remark able, The road has been completed only two years, and in that time the value of town property has Increased from $ HR.OOO to $880,000; the trade of the town, which formerly amounted to only $30,000 annu ally, Is now estimate! at $800*000; the as sessment of the county In which Gaines ville is located has risen from $750,000 to $2,200,000; tho receipts of cotton have in creased from 8 bales to over 5,0(30; while the population of the town, which was only 350 when the railroad was com menced, bow numbers 2,500 ami is daily increasing. Some of our people think that the his tory of Columbus would be an offset to the above exhibit. A “drummer” for a large grocery house in New Orleans told us, however, that luj shipped large quantities of goods to Balnbridge and even as far as Apalachicola, by rail to Columbus or Eu faula and thence by river. Will not some of our readers give us a description of Columbus and Apalachicola as they were before railroads were built in Georgia ? Go to Yonge’a and buy cheap gentle men’s Underwear, as he is closing out that department of his business. If you want a Black Lace Point at New York cost call at J. J.

Whittle’s. THE TIMES: THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 23, 1875. •CHAP*. Overcoats were popular yesterday. The atmosphere is more like November than the mild September. Our popular young friend, Douglass Wise, returned to Texas yesterday morn ing by way of Montgomery. He has been here two or three months on a visit to tho homo folks and friends. We wish him much success in his Western home. We were pleased to meet yesterday Mr. Foster Wise, who has just completed a course at Poughkoepsie. Yesterday was the liveliest of tho week. This cool weather is sure to make busi ness more active. Girard numbers forty fishermen, and the mystery is how they catch subsistence out of our river. The attendance of Columbus people at the Geneva camp-meeting is sure to be very large. Seven counties will be repre sented there, which will make the crowd one of the largest that has assotnbtel in Gwrgla since the war. It is remarkable how the interest of tho open air meetings continue. It seems to grow constantly more intense and has al ready jiermeated all classes of society. This is tho lovely season of the year for the owners of dray lines. Half the people are moving and all tho merchants are re ceiving new goods. Tliis lively business is a compensation for the dullness of the long summer months. The flowers are dying beneath the touch of these cold winds, and booqwets will not go through every mail to the fortunate among men. A cat which mn turn somersault back wards Is the latest sensation in “Dog Al ley.” Who shoots all those pistols at night? A stranger would think a guerilla warfare was in progress here. Maneuvering mosquitoes multiply mar velously, meditating mischief; malicious mosquitoes mercilessly maul multitudes, maunehing masters and misses. If young ladies wish to get stout they should eat food slowly. Haste does not make waist in this instant**. Because he can no longer live among a people who recognize “a difference be tween political and business integrity,” Ham Bard will shake the dust of Atlanta from his feet and suspend his fiddle in Montgomery. The Inhuman city editor of the Auguste OmutUutumalist sighs for a sotixayesigluxi in that city merely because he wants a lit tle of tho “spice of life,” Police say business is getting more lively. This bracing weather makes tho offender prove active, and Mayor’s Court prospects are fast improving. Hurely tho big circus advortised for Ope lika will not give us the go-by. If the pro prietor knew how many half-dollars the colored populat ion is just Itching to spend, ho would drive his big team out on our commons. Wo regret to leatti from the Griffin Sewn that Rev. Dr. DeVotio is confined to his room by sickness. Star spangled banner stockings will bo worn at the Centennial. Tennyson never smokes any but Virginia tobaoco. The late John R. Thompson kept, him supplied with the best the market afforded. Edwin Booth’s terms for the coming season are 79 per cent, of the gross re ceipts. At this rate he would get $1,120 out of a $1,600 house. The styles of note paper change so fust that It is impossible to keep up with them. Jefferson Davis recently informed a re porter of the Bt. Louis Republican that during his whole life he had never deliv ered a written speech. A Harris county man contends that | there is less whiskey gulped down there than in any other county in the State. This is no small honor. Perhaps last Spring’s j tornadoes had something to do with this i happy result. A week from next Monday and the hoste \ of public school children will gather to gether once more. A school-boys vaca tion seems to him to fly by with terrible rapidity. Tropical fruits are beginning to come into tho market quite rapidly. There is a line sale for the first of the season. It Is cheering, to contemplate our steadily i growing trade with Florida. Merchants expect great things of It in a year or two. One tiling is certain, the number of wholesale houses in Columbus is bound to increase greatly. Tho saddest thing done yet by this cold snap is the Abolition of that exciting, thrill ing game, commonly known as croquet. It is strange why country dames will continue in the time honored custom of making thetr'own soap when they can buy it so much cheaper. Somehow there is a prejudice among country people against everything made by the “tarnation yan keos.” Many of our merchants go to New York for pleasure, as well as to buy goods. One of the most prominent of them has been gone six weeks and his friends don’t know when to expect his return. We invariably prize the good words of an oueiuy more than that of onr dear est friend. SAn old negro with iiaif a dozen hounds to soil, made considerable merriment on the streets yesterday. If there is any object' which ought to excite fear in the human breast it is a kicking mule. Yongo keeps the iinest and most stylish Hats. Fl*h, Fifth ! Fresh Fish every day at John L. Hogan’s sep‘22 tf Ice and Fish House.

But if you will go to your Druggist, Dr. F. L. Brooks, 150 Broad street, Columbus, Ga., and get a bottle of Green’s August Flower your immediate eure is as certain as you live. Sample bottles of this medicine can be obtained for 10 cents to try its superior virtuo. Regular size 75 cents. Try it, two doses will relieve any case. mh2s dawly OVKcefr, Kill* A Cos. The citizens of Columbus were sorry to lose such a valuable citizen ns Mr. L. E. O’Keefe, and regretted his determination to cast his lot In another place. They will l>o glad, however, to know that lie has the prospect of good fortune before him, and that he is already establish**! in business in his now home. By referent** to our advertising columns will be seen the card of O’Keefe, Ellis A Cos. Our readers will recollect Mr. Ellis as Charlie, who for a long time did business in Savannah. The company is no lwa personage than Mr. Frank M. Gunby, who is as well known In Columbus as anybody, and universally liked. It Is a strong llrm, witli plenty of brains and artivity to carry on successfully their undertaking. In fact, it is a Coluiubus iirm located in Charleston. They do a brokerage and commission business, cot ton being a specialty. We wish them great success and popularity. They deserve it. Fine Flour. Every housekeeper is anxious to get good flour, for then the cook has no ex cuse for poor breads. It is often a hard i matter to And a satisfactory article, for a j popular brand may become spurious. We ; offer a word of advice to all housekeepers • and dealers, and it is te go to Ilolstead A j Co.'s and procure some of their flour, called “Purity.” It Is probably tho best flour that has ever been in the Columbus mar ket, and is made from a now process of grinding. Try it, and our word for it you will Is? pleased. Rua or. The night accommodation train between Montgomery and >pellka ran off the track at Cowles’ Station. The accident was caused by a change of the switch. No one hurt. Tho accident delayed the oilier trains for several hours until the debris of the wreck was cleared away. Tho engine, tender, and two coal cars were badiy smashed. Florida Parllri. Several parties from this city will visit Florida soon to enjoy tho pleasures of hunting and fishing in that delightful clime. A Florida trip would lx? more pleasant later in the season than now. Personal. Wo regret to learn that the Rev. J. O. Branch, Pastor of Bt. Paul Church, la con fined to Ids room by sickness. Wo hope soon to be able to note Ids recovery. Nllll They Come!

A few months after the dmth of her husband she saw your advertisement, and came to our store aud 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 your Regulator, existing her only throe dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without anv benefit.

Printed from new type, end tlhi*- tritad with Several ThousMtd Engraving:# and Map*. The work originally published under the title of The New Amekkan Cvtxoi'Juha was com pleted in 1H63, aiuce which time the wide circula tion which it ha# attained in li part# of the United State#, and the signal development# which have taken place in every branch of acience, lit erature and art. have induced the editor# aud ! publisher# to Mubmit it to an exart and thorough ! revision, and to issue anew edition entitled The ! American CtCLOFJKpt*. Within the last teu years the progress of dis- I covery In every department of knowledge has | made anew work of refereuoe an imperative ■ want. 1 The movement of political affairs has kept pace j witn the discoveries of science, and their truitiu ! application to the industrial and useful arts and i the convenience and re linemen t of social life. 1 Great wars and consequent revolutions have oc [ carred, involving national changes of peculiar I moment. The civil war of our own country, ; which was at its height when the last volume of j the old work appeared, has happily been ended, | aud anew course of commercial and industrial ; activity has been commenced, j Large accessions to our geographical kuowl | edge have been made by the indefatigable ex j plorers of Africa. j The great political revolution# of the last de- I cade, with the natural result of the lapse of time, i have brought into public vi**w a multitude of new I men, whose names are in every one's mouth, and of whose lives every one is curiou# to know the particulars. Great battles have been fought and . important sieges maintained, of which the de tails are a* yet preserved only in tho newspaper* or iu the transient publication# of the day. hut which ought now to take their place in perma nent aud authentic history. In preparing the present edition for the press, it has accordingly been the aim of the editors to bring down the information to the latest possi ble (Ute*, and to furnish au accurate account of the most recent discoveries iu science, of every fresh production iu iiteraUne. and of the newest inventions in the practical arts, as well as to give s succinct aud original record of the progress of political and historical events. The work has been begun after long and care ful preliminary labor, and with the most ample resource# fur carrying it on to a successful term ination. None of the original stereotype plates have been used, but every page has been printed on new type, forming in fact a uew Cyclopaedia, with the same plan aud compass as its predecessor, but with # far greater pecuniary expenditure, ami with such improvements in its composition as have been suggested by longer experience and enlarged knowledge. The illustrations which aro introduced for the first time iu the present edition have been added not for the sake of pictorial effect, but to give greater lucidity and force to the explanations in the text. They embrace all branches of scienoe aud of natural history, and depict the most famous aud remarkable features of scenery, architecture and art. as well as the various pro cesses of mechanics and manufactures. Although intended for instruction rather than embehshment. no pain* have been spared to in sure their artistic excellence; the cost of their execution ia enormous, aud it i# believed they will find a welcome receptiah as an admirable feature of the Cyelopwdia, and worthy of it* high character. This work is sold to Subscriber* only, payable on delivery of each volume. It will be completed in sixteen large octavo volume#, each containing about 800 pages, fully illustrated with several thousand Wood Engraving#, and with numerous colored Lithographic Maps.

Jordan's Joyous Julep. A Specific for Neural gin. TESTIMONIALS. PETKRHBUua, Va., Jan. 20th, 1876. John L. Jordan, Esq.—Dear Sir: So well pleased am I with your Joyous Julep, that I hereby tes tify to the* superior merit of your unequaled prejaration for Neuralgia. I shall esteem my self happy should even one of that worst of all classes of sufferers be led through uie to take the Julep. My wife ha# for ten (10) years been a mar tyr to the most malignant and persistent neural gic torture, withont 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 too iu a minute, aud the very minute your medicine was taken. If so, it is a most remarkable, simple coincidence, and I prefer giving the credit in your favor of the beßt testimony man can ever have—experience. Vary truly yours, JAMES T. TOfiH. Columbus. January 16,1875. Mr .Jordan:— l take great pleasure in recom mending your Joyous Julep for neuralgia, has produced a most wonderful relief iu cue o* the severest attacks of neuralgia my daughter ever has had. She has been treated for it by three skillful physicians, with very little benefit, and used all the usual remedies with little suc cess. I can with much confidence hope for a per manent cure. It is only two days sines we began the use of it, and it is apparently of permanent benefit. Yfturs, with respect, MRS. L. I. NORMAN. JOHN L JttUHU, Apothecary.
