The Mayor held no court yesterday, but
disposed of a ease of a few days standing,
by lining Joe Deems $5. Joe has the rep
utation of being a very good negro, but
Sunday ho did not feel well, and took on
just onotigh corn Juice to make him want
to cuss and fight. His animosity was par
ticularly excited against the policeman
who attempted to stop a quarrel, and as
the policeman was endeavoring to take
Joe In, Joe endeavored to take In the po
! lice. The police got the liest of him to
' such an extent that lie was landed In tin l
guard-house, to await the above $5 line,
I .Too will allow the city $5 on Saturday,
When hi“ employers pay him Ills wages.
Tlr II ► Ordinance.
Our remarks, a few days since, on the
hog ordinance, and asking a repeal or sus
pension of It for the corning year, seems
to have met with general favor among
those originally tn favor of the hog ordi
nance. Those people who have heretofore
raised their own meat In the eityof course
are in favor of the repeal. There is a large
class of poor people who have thanked us
for bringing It to the notice of the Coun
cil. We hope Council will heed this re
quest of the poor of our city, and at least
give them a chance, for the next year, to
raise moat to help support them and their
dependent families. Council meets to
night, and then wo hope to see an ordi
nance suspending the law passed, and
passed unanimously. (>ur poor need help,
and in this way you can give It to them,
even If it ho at the expense of the city-like
apiiearanco of our city. As the law now
stands, it is only executed spasmodically,
and hogs are on the street most of the
time. Give everybody u chance. Give the
poor a chance to help themselves, and you
will not becullod upon for aid so often.

The statement made in the Enquirer '
of yesterday morning to the effect that \
Mr. Johnson the jailor gave my brother, •
Douglass Codman, whiskey at the on- !
treaty of my mother, is erroneous, and 1 j
desire to correct it. My mother knew I
nothing whatever of It never having!
spoken to Mr. Johnson on the subject
ami I alone am chargeable with the wrong,
If any was committed. I asked Mr. John
son to allow my brother to have a bottle
of whiskey, and ho kindly consented to do
so, on condition that ho should himself
keep, and give out the whiskey.

A Lively Foot Knee.
Yesterday we witnessed a lively foot
race between Marshal Robinson and a ne
gro namod Henry Wright. The race was
made up at short notice, and the time was
so short that no pools were sold.
It appears that llonry Wright was re
cently convicted of burglary in breaking
in and entering the house of Mr. Davis,
near Green Hill, Stewart county, in last
April, Ho broke jail soon thereafter, and
since then has been at largo. Yesterday
the Sheriff of Stewart county was in the
city and recognized Henry and Henry, it
seems, recognized the Sheriff about the
same time, and concluded it would be bet-!
tor to go across the river for a few days, j
It seems ho was in a hurry, fur he struck
a trot, making for the lower bridge. The
Sheriff called to Marshal Robinson, who
was on the opposite side of the street, to
“head him!” The race started from Watt I
A Walker's corner. The negro took the
lead and kept the inside track until they
neared the bridge, when Marshal Robin
son took the polo and retained it until he
mot a man with a shot-gun. Ho called for
the gun and pulled It upon the flying Hen
ry and ordered a halt. Henry consented
to halt, and was recaptured and turned
over to the Sheriff.
Columbus is a very bad place for thieves
and cut-throats. Noithor class receive
much encouragement horo, though they
are generally discovered and requested to
remain at the county’s expense until some
kind friends or relatives aro hoard from,
to toll what they know about thorn.
The Memorial Concert.
Everybody was so well pleased with the
exhibition of the concert of the amateurs
last night, that a number have suggested
a trip to Montgomery during the Christ
mas holidays. (Vo tidnk it would be the
means of making money for the monu
ment. Wo are sure the troupe would be
well patronized in Montgomery, and duly
appreciated. The Western Railroad would
doubtless give the party special rates, and |
tho troupe need not bo absent but one day
and night from home. It would prove an j
enjoyable trip. The Montgomerlans have j
an amateur troupe of their own, but we'
don't think they could surpass the memo- i
rial troupe. Tho singing of Miss Cook
and Mrs. Shipp alone is equal to anything
we evor saw in amateur entertainments.
Everybody would be glad if Sirs. Tyng
and Manager Jordan would give a benefit
in Montgomery.

A strapping big stranger entered a store
on Woodward avenue yesterday, and lean
ing too heavily on the show-case broke
one of the panes of glass.
‘That will cost you two dollars,” said
the proprietor.
“Havn’tgot the money,” replied the
stranger.
“Well, you can’t go out of the store un
til you pay for tlmt glass," said the I
storekeeper In a determined voice.
“I’m sorry, but I’m willing to be licked, |
if that will do you any good,” replied the;
stranger, rapidly getting out of two coats
and a vest and showing arms like joints
of stovepipe.
‘‘Oh, I guess it was purely accidental, ’’1
said tho shop-keeper in an altered voice, j
as he got behind the counter in a hurry,!
“and you needn’t mind about waiting
around here any longer. Here’s a earl
ticket it you are going up the avenue.

IT IXMIINTJEB DURING THE WEEK.
Wo scarcely know how to go about de
scribing uuch’an entertainment as we saw
last night at tho Perry House, under the
management of tho ladles of tho Memorial
Association. Everything was on a grand
| scalo and managed to perfection. The
■ spacious dining-room of tho Porry House
was used for tho occasion. Every pillar
and post was elegantly decorated, while
the walls wore honored with tho portraits
of tho most illustrious of Georgia’s dead.
The ladles of Columbus have been un
tiring in their efforts to make the festival
a success, and from I lie crowd present last,
night wo feel sure their work will he re
warded with success.
THE TABLES
were presided over by tho different ladles
of Columbus who had identified them
selves with this movement. Tho llrst
bevy of beauty that met your eye as you
entered the hall was t,ho
lemonade well,
under the care of Misses Henning. Lock
hart and Wilkins. Tills was the fount at
which every thirst was quenched except
that of requited love.
THE HEMMES TABLE
was next on the right-hand side. At this
table three of the most handsome married
ladies in tho city presided Mrs. Garrard,
Mrs. Bruce, and Mrs. Williams-assisted
by the fascinating and graceful Miss Swift.
They sold every article, from a pin-cush
ion to a pair of vases, and their table was
thronged during the entire evening. The
portrait of Col. John A. Jones was sus
pended above this table.
STONEWALL JACKSON
was the next table, arid there everything
that could tempt tho appetite was found.
Cakes and sweetmeats in any quantity,
and dispensed by fair hands, found a
ready sale. Mrs. (V. It. Bedell, Mrs. Mort
Williams, and Miss Wall did the honors.
Over the table was written in letters com
bining the Confederate colors, “Stonewall
Jackson." Tho photographs of Capt. Jas.
Ware and Capt. Gllttinger were hung un
der Stonewall Jackson's, and were appro
priately draped.
LADY FRANKLIN
coffee table was next reached, and there
was found the oldest surviving member
of the Memorial Association, Mrs. Robert
A. Ware, doing her part in furtherance of
the cause she wept for, prayed for, and
hoped for. Mrs. Guerry and Miss Martin
assisted In the management of this table.
THE OYSTER TABLE
was just In front, and at the post of love
and duty we found Mrs. D. I’. Ellis, Mrs.
Dr. Robinson and Mrs. Warner. Those
latlios know how to cook oysters, and how
to serve them, and exerted themselves to
aid in building a monument to tho dead
heroes. Immediately In roar of tins table
was a splendid
MEAT TABLE,
presided over by M is. M. J. ('rawford, Mrs.
Perry, Mrs. 15. IT. Crawford, Mrs. W. L.
Clark, Mrs. A. M. Allen and Mrs. Me-
Miobaol. The choicest delicacies of the
season were found on their table, and in
every way the most fastidious appetite
could be gratified. The ladies had their
table beautifully decorated with appropri
ate pictures and wreaths. In making the
circuit of the hall, the next table was one
bearing the device, on a flag floating from
the centre,
“KSIICOL,”
which Interpreted means “the land of
fruit." It was the land of fruit, but with !
the nicest custards and jellies added that I
we ever saw. Mrs. G. W. Woodruff, Mrs. [
F. M. Jeter, Mrs. M. Joseph, Mrs. Howard
and the Misses Howard were there, ready
to serve you and t heir country. It was a
popular resort.
THE DOLL HOUSE
was a gem in itself, and was literally tilled
with dolls. Mrs. Hanserd, assisted by
Miss Mamie lipping, had charge of tho
tent, and sold dolls by tho wholesale.
THE GEORGIA TABLE
comprised several departments, consist
ing of all kinds of meats, cakes, flowers
ami fancy articles. Above tho table was
hung a portrait of Col. Charles J. AVil
iiams, who sacrificed his life In the cause
of liberty. This was considered by many
tho handsomest tablo in tho house. The
table and the surroundings were beauti
fully adorned with wreaths and ever
greens. Behind tho table stood a commit
tee of the best and prettiest women of Co
lumbus Mrs. W. 11. Young, Mrs. Reese
Crawford, Mrs. A. C. Young, Mrs. A. G.
Redd, Misses Young, Green, Eidgway and
Thom, were attendants. In tho centre
of tho table .was a representation of the
coat of arms of Georgia, made of candy.
THE LADY WASHINGTON TABLE
was under tho charge of the Wynnton
ladies, most of whom were dressed in cos
tume mid shone to advantage. We no
ticed among those present Mrs. G. E.
Thomas, Mrs. Gen. Phillips, Mrs. Col.
Thornton, Mrs. K. E. Yonge, Misses Shep
herd, Walker, Grimes,and Banks. Every
delicacy that could be suggested was on
this table, and dispensed by tho fairest of
hands.
R. E. LEE TABLE
was tho next, and there Mrs. Curtis, Airs.
Wells, Airs. Tillman, anil Misses Barnard
and Wilkins were assigned. Their table
presented a beautiful appearance, and was
well patronized by those that wanted nice
cake and sweetmeats.
THE FISH POND
was a novel invention, and a half dozen
captivating young misses stood there in
sisting you should iish at ten Cents a bait,
We got baited and threw in our line and
drew out well, wo won’t say wlnit.
THE COLQUITT TABLE
! was noxt to the Lee table. Every kind of
| fancy article was there held for salo by
| Airs. Beach, Mrs. Brooks, lira. Word, and
j Misses Brooks and Mary Williams. Every
thing was there for sale, and from the
crowd that hung around it, we thought
! sales were good. Tho best cigars in the
i house were offered by the fairest hands,
and tho tender, beseeching look to buy
! cigars was irresistible.
The next was a
FANCY TABLE,
under the charge of Misses Wilkerson and
McDaniel. Their table was arranged with
taste, and they seemed to make good
sales. They had a nice collection of arti
cles, and were in earnest in selling them
to the best advantage for tho monument.
THE POST OFFICE.
Miss Clayton and the Alisses Wise held
sway at the post office, and a letter was
ready for any address there was called
for. Many touching epistles were receiv
ed, and many good hits made. This de
partment, was a success, and not being
appointed by Grant, of course no frauds
were detected.
THE RAFFLE.
Everybody was called to the raffling ta
ble. under tho charge of Mrs. Green and
Mrs. T.cc, They had a splendid collection
I of articles, and were rapidly disposing of
them by raffle. Tho chances were good
! that all tho chances would be taken.
Mrs. Carter, President, and Miss Wil
j Hams, Secretary, wore present, attending
. to their respective duties.
TONIGHT.
; To-night the testlval continues. Re
member the vote for the most popular
j military company progresses, and that
the elegant wreath made by Mrs. Martin
!is the prize. Voting was spirited last
night. Everybody ought to go out to
night and do their host for the cause.
We have only given a hurried sketch of
what can be seen there, and of course have
omitted the names of some ladies present.
To-morrow wo will try and And out every
lady interested and do them justice. The
late hour at which we write precludes a
further notice of this elegant entertain
ment.

A go-ahead railroad official yesterday
caught n glimpse of some men whom he
thought were bound for Texas. They had
gotten a block away before he thought of
it, when he overtook them, and w ith’ his
accustomed modesty asked if they wore
bound for the West. They replied in the
negative, when he asked if they knew
anybody that wanted to go, and if they
should, lie wanted them to call on him for
tickets. Enterprise we call it.
liitf Foot.
A good deal has been said about the ar
rival of the “Big Foot,” and a groat num
ber of speculations have been made in re

located in Columbus as hung to a certain

tion thabshe had arrived ut Chattahoo

for your chickens.
PcaUfMorthy.
A young merchant of Columbus was un- j
able to attend the festival last night for |
tho want of funds. Late yesterday a nov
el idea occurred to him, and he sold his
coat in order t hat he might aid the festi
val. Such men deserve success, for their
hearts are in the right place.

j of dice, and are over-persuaded to try our

j not attend 119 always, for after taking a
1 number of chances, we are still without a

it will answer.

WITHOUT A PARALLEL.
The demand for Dr, J. Bradfield’s Fe
male Regulator Is beyond precedent in
j the annals of |H>pular remedies. Orders
come In so thick and fast that the Propri
etor has, heretofore been unable to till
j thorn all. He is happy to state that ar
| rangements are now complete by which
i he is prepared to manufacture Female
! Regulator on a scale equal to the oiner
i genev, and the public may feel assured
j that their wants may now be supplied.
Physicians of high repute are using this
great remedy, lu daily practice, all over
Georgia. Hereafter no woman need suf
fer from suppressed, suspended or irreg
ular menstruation. This valuable inedi
eine is prepared by L. H. Bradlield, Drug
gist, Atlanta, Ga., and sold at $1.50 per
bottle by druggists throughout America
HEARTY BLOOMING WIDOW,
A1 arietta, Ga., March 9, 1870.
Messrs. Hraelfield <C Cb.|:
Gentlemen—You will please strip us an
other supply of your invaluable Female
Regulator, and forward bill by mail. We
are happy to state that this remedy gives
belter satisfaction than any article we
sell. Wo have been selling it since 1868,
and witnessed many remarkable cures by
it. Among ottiers, 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; ill fact, she lias 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 lias cured her sound and
well, brought her regular monthly peri
ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom
ing widow—witii tbe use of but two bot
th-s of your Regulator, costing her only
three dollars, when she had tried several
physicians and spent a great deal of
money without anv benetlt. Wishing you
great success with your valuable reme
dies, we. are, respectfully yours, etc.,

easily solved. When one visits their Stores and
goes throunh the different, departments,he will be
Hurprised to see the immense piles of Goods they
handle. They not only keep constantly on hand
a full supply ot DRY COODN'XOTIOXM&r..
but have one entire floor for EIOOT.*i and
and another room for H AT* and ready
made <T*OTIII\I. This Stock is by far the
largest ever offered in this market, and in buy
ing in such large quantities for CASH, they of
course purchase at a great advantage, generally
from first bands, and can always offer their cus
tomers Goods at the very BOTTOM PRICES.
Their trade is now extended through Geor
gia, Alabama and Florida, and as it is found that
they sell many Goods at New York prices without
adding freight, their orders are steadily in
creasing. They propose to sell any (roods at
New York prices and freight added, and they in
vite an examination anil comparison of prices, by
all persons wishing to purchase, and give assu
rance that their prices cannot he beat.
