their business in the forenoon and leave
that same day for Montgomery, getting
there at a good bed-time, and being ready
for business In Montgomery next day.
Tbe exact day the change will go into

Miss Fannie Raiford.
Mr. Turner Is tho very efficient foreman

The best wishes of the Times office are
heartily extended to tho happy couple.

COHN CllII! BURNED
Thursday night about ten o'clock, the
corn crib of Mr..l. C. Cook containing 800
bushels of corn, 200 of peas besides a lot of
fodder and hay, was entirely consumed.
Tho blaze from tho burning house spread a
glare over the city, and for a time the
alarm bell called the firemen to tlioir en
gines. No cause Is assigned for the burn
ing. Some of Mr. Cook’s servants passed
the barn only a half hour before the blaze
burst Into full light. It was clearly the
work of an incendiary. There was no in
surance.
Just one month ago, Mr. Cook had simi
lar bad luck in tbe loss of ids gin house
and four bales of cotton, all on the same
plantation.
This is truly [hard luck. The year’s
labor lost in a few moments.
It would boa good thing if all such In
cendiaries were caught and hung to the
first tree. It would bn quite summary,
and not altogether according to law, but it
would putaßtop to burning gin houses
and corn cribs.

To-day, at from 12 to 2 o'clock, the pub

we say that tho lunch will bo elegant.

OIK OPELIKA LETTER.
OrELiKA, Ala., Nov. 24, 1875. |
Dear Times: We have just finished a
most sum ptuous repast at tlio Bedell
House, kept by tho popular and favorite
host, Capt. Frank Hervey. Why should
we enumerate the numerous dishes placed
before us—oyster stew, baked halibut, red
snapper, roast beef, turkey, lamb and beef
ala mode ? Dessert and pastry were too
numerous to mention. Tho fact that we
are not “used to” this great variety makes
us, just now, feel like the little hound pup
that once In a while gets fed on buttermilk j
and bread. We are in misery. The enor
mous taxes on “sperrits” precludes the
possibility of our getting relief in that -
direction.
Business at this point-God help us!—ls
as dull as it Is In Columbus; more grum
blers than I ever saw. John W. Williams
Jk Cos., J. H. Smith Jk Cos., with a few other
leading merchants, are doing their full
share of business; but I assure you they
state facts when say business is dull.
This is the last week of the Circuit Court
hero, presided over by Hon. Janies E. Cobh,
whoso headquarters are at the Bedell
House. Ho looks a little in misery him
self since he left the full-laden table.
The Times is still growing in popular
favor. Enclosed pleaso lind list of seven
new subscribers, which forward ns per
amount enclosed, to this city.
Tho emigration agents are now busy
getting this seetton rid of quite a number
of tho best planters, all going West. It is
truly astonishing towitm-ss the number
of men, women and children on every
train, going to Louisiana and Texas. We
can only bid them God speed and prosper
ity. Their places are to he supplied. In
vito settlers from tho Nrrth to come
among us. No healthier or more prosper
ous section of the South can bo found than
thlough the eastern portion of Alabama
and western and southwestern portion of
Georgia, and now is tiie time to buy lands.
Tho day must come when the Loom will
have to come to Cotton. Already capital
ists from the North are traveling through
tho South, and especially Georgia, with a
view to erecting manufactories. In a few
years the quiet stream in rear of Maj.
James C. Cook's place, on the lovely Chat
tahoochee, will he noisy with the shuttle
and the loom; and, Messrs. Editors, we
will live to see it—wit (lout an accident
overtakes us. Ho mote it be.
Gen. Alexander, general manager of the
Western Railroad, is now nmong the most
popular railroad men In this section. All
speak of his untiring efforts to get a road
which has long been out of repair, in the
best condition. New tics, stringers and
rails are living rapidly laid down.
Heaven speed the day which will wit
ness the retirement of two men now con
nected with railroads—namely, Wm. M.
Wad ley, and the great American discrim
inator, Doctor Flewollen, of the Macon A

The demand for Dr. J. Bradfle,ld’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 to fill
them all. He is happy to state that ar
rangements are now complete by which
ho 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 be supplied.
Physicians of high repute are using this
great remedy, in daily practice, all over
Georgia. Hereafter no woman need suf
fer from suppressed, suspended or irreg
ular menstruation. This valuable meal
due is prepared by L. 11. Bradlleid, Drug
gist, Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per
bottle by druggists throughout America
HEARTY BLOOMING WIDOW.

Messrs. JBrailfleld <£ Cb.j:
Gentlemen—You will please ship us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward hill by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
hotter 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. She oontinued in had
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
re. tions. 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, costing her only
three 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.,
W. Root A s.
