The Mayor hold Ids usual levee yester
day, and aside from tho spectators, there
were a goodly number of witnesses and
several principals.
Fannie Thomas was the first maiden
that danced Into court, and answered the
uhargo of a general drunk and much dis
order. The proof was conclusive against
Fannie, and it was evident that she had
been on a general Christmas rampage,
and to such an extent as required a lino of
seven dollars and a half to soothe her
troubled mind. She was soothed, and qui
etly left that amount in the Imnds of the
Marshal. Bob Pryor was up for lighting,
lie had been limiting beyond a doubt, and
for the amusement tic paid $5.00 and costs,
or Ilvo days in the guard house. Chris
Bailoy had been indulging a little, and
focllng offended at some remarks made
him, he assorted the power of his inusclo
to the tune of two and a half.
The Mayor then adjourned the meeting,
and the Marshal and Clerk went off happy
In the collection of "cost.”

The services wore opened in the church

highly enjoyed by those present, but not
half so much as the poor orphans and the
scholars generally of the school who enjoy
odtbo good things that Santa Claus had
hung upon the tree.
The music was splendid, whilo the chil

THE TIMES: WEDNESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER %
A MO DEI. FARM.
Why N,'i*t Hat M ,**• I.lkr Itf
A few days iee, In company with a
party of gentlemen wo Visited the farm of
str. Geo. W. Itadeliff, situated about three
aid a half miles from the city. After a
most elegant dinner, wo started out to
walk over tho farm and look at the im
provements of agriculture. Tho first thing
that attracted our attention was tho sym
metry and uniqueness of things, coupled
with the economical improvements and
oonvoiilendes of the place. Wo have not
seen such a farm in a long time. Thccn
liro place is fenced and ditched in the
more modern style of farming, whilo the
houses and barns presented a view of gen
uine comfort. Mr. JLUuloliff, .kaa exer
cised groat care in tho management of his
farm, and in every department we recog
nized the modern and model funnel'. Ills
land was poor to begin with, but by prop
er attention and cultivation it is now on
rliliod. Tho Holds and pastures present
an appoarunoo of unusual care. slore
than half of his cultivutod acres are lux
uriant in oats and wheat, while the pas
tures are blooming in the various grasses.
Every ditch was cleaned otit,' the fences
the best in tho oounty, and tho hinds up
turned ready for the spring culture.
At hom<‘, ; we coEld but notice the splen
did garden, thetlßo lings, lowls and cat
tle. Everything In the barn yard looked
slock and well cared for. His most excel
lent wife presides over this department,
and in Overy way sustains the part of a
noblo woman. Wo observed her touch in
tho farm ati<( at home.
While w looted/over this niodet farm
wo wondered why more people did not
leave the crowded city and live in tho
country, whore they might establish such
a home. A place like this is worth hun
dreds of crowded and squalid houses in
town and gives peace and plenty.
We only wish that our adjacent lands
were owned and used in such a way. Such
an example should bo followed and like
ttie RadclilT farm lie made self sustaining
in every department.
We liavo taken the liberty of Intruding
upon hospitality to mention this place in
order to give nu idea of what a home may
be made by proper and scientific culture,
and with the hopo that more of our peo
ple may beautify and adorn their places.
We omitted Pi notice tlio elegant llsh pond.
Such a tiling may be made upon all places,
and besides adding to the beauty of the
homo, it becomes a source of revenue.
CUTTING SCRAPE IN' TROY.
WOUNDS NOT FATAL BUT VERY DANGEROUS.
Wo loarned yesterday of a serious dif
ficulty in Troy,, between Mr. James Hill
and Frank Watson. From tho facts we
could gather, it seems that Mr. Hill and
another gontleman were in nn altercation,
when Mr. Watson Interfered to prevent it.
slr. Hill turned upon Mr. Watson and cut
him In several places. He is expected to
live and to got well, though tils wounds
are vrey serious and painful. Both of the
gentlemen are highly respected, and bo
longto families of influence. We learn
the affair is most generally regretted.
Mr. Hill we learn is in the custody of the
law.
A ( oMil>ilnt.
Tho citizens in the eastern part of the
city complain that they are not protected
by tho police, though they pay tales to
support them. They would like to see or
hear of one walking on tlio back streets,
instead of setting on dry goods boxes on
Broad street. We agree witli them that
the police should go through ids boat once
or twice a night, and try and stop the
chicken stealing. That we understand to
lie their duty and not to coniine themselves
to street corners and bar-rooms. Repre
senting tho people, wo would ask if they
cannot be required to look alter property
generally, instead of watching one gas
light post. A little trip on each block of
their beat would not hurt anything, and
tho bar-rooms would not seriously miss
their presence. The complaint is very
genera), though wo learn there are some
who walk their boats and don’t stop to
take lqng chats and naps on dry goods
boxes. I’ho proper way to remedy this
imposition, is for the people in the differ
ent boats to prefer changes against those
officers who do not leave one or two cor
ners ami ask a discharge, and men com
petent and trustworthy to bo placed in
their stead. Wo have intormntion tills
will bedone, unless a change ha manifested
ill some boats.

[Communicated. ]
Editor* Time Economy is said to bo
wealth; an assertion no one wifi readily
gainsay. But “saving at tlie spigot and
losing at the bung”—is that either wealth
or economy? In administering our affairs,
eithoc peisohal or public, a Just economy
is commendable; but a niggardly saving,
is parsimonious stinginess. The use of
cultivated brains at a mendacious price,
and selling corn and hay at an exorbitant
rate, is not economy or retrenchment.
What is it? “Putting money in thy
purse" ? Lot us look at Columbus, whose
credit is second to no Southern city. She
pays tier City Physician four hundred
dollars. Columbus Is charitable, or she
hopes to make the outside world believe
so. She pretends to take care of her poor,
—and she has, without doubt, more poor
people in her limits than any other South
ern city of her population. Her factories
invite them within her bounds; and, if re
port bo true that tho factories propose to
reduce the wages of their operatives be
low living rates, they cannot possibly pay
for their medicines and medical attend
ance. Then tho labor of her City Phy
sician must be necessarily greatly in
creased (and at what a compensation!
For comparison sake, let us look at the
salaries of two of her officers. The City
Physician, who is required to obey all
Calls, day or night, rain or shine, hot or
mold, necessary or not— he musf go. What
is ills pay? Four hundred dollars.
Tlio Wharfinger, whose attention is only
required upon tho arrival of a boat; his
visits are made ut his convenience. His
salary is three hundred and fifty
dollars. True, he must collect the whar
fage -which be eftujd do without leaving
his office -only his good' nature (and a
better-natured man never lived) prompts
him to trouble himself to call upon those
owing wharfage. See the disparagement.
And then, again, how much did tlie city
pay for feeding the mules last year ? Is
there any difference betwoon eighteen dol
lars per month and twenty-four ? It is
said the mules cost Uie eity lost year $24
per month. If we are wrong, will the late
efficient Chairman of tho Street Commit
tee correct us ? Montgomery pays her
City Physician SI,OOO. Columbus s4oo—a
little less than twice as much as feeding
our mules cost last year. Now, if Colum
bus really means retrenchment, dispense
with the services of a City Physician, and
put the mules and city poor under the
Deputy Marshal, assisted by tlie Hospital
Keeper; and don’t aspire to tlie dignity of
an educated gentleman, with less pay than
two city rnules can eat up. slen, like
mules, must be fed, even if tlio man be
only a Doctor.
