We desired to embellish our Trade
Paper with a Photographic “bird’s
eye” view of qFtyrabns, and delayed
Its issue for tlllt ptifpose. Btit hav
ing announced a day certain for its
publication, wo issue it at the time
promised, notwithstanding an un
expected delay in the arrival of the
cut.
Coiumbus was "laid out as a trad
ing town,” by act of tho Legislature
of Georgia, in December 1827, and
the flrstsale of town lots was in 1828.
Its surroundings then were a large
extent of unsettled country on the
east, north and south, and the In
dian settlements of Alabama on the
west. The ground on which
the city now stands was river
bottom land, covered with a
dense forest growth and with
ponds of water. Its trade for a long
time was carried on oxolusively by
river navigation and by wagons, and
for a number of years it consisted
largely in traffic with tho Indians.
How different from the stately city
of to-day, with its railroads branch
ing in every direction, its extensive
factories, its line public and private
schools, its large stores of staple and
fancy merchandize, wholesale and
retail, its massive churches and other
public buildings,and fts elegant pri
vate residences' Hqw different the
view from the wild Coweta Falls
of forty yoars ago to tho magnificent
Cotton Factories, p iUi their thou
sand looms anil ihtiy thousand
spindles, now in never-ceasing hum!
Columbus, to-day, according to the
last census, hus a population within
the incorporated limits of about
nine thousand Inhabitants, but
the immediate surroundings in
cluding an aroa extending not
more than a mile and a half
from the court-house in each direc
tion—swell tho population trading
and doing business in Columbus to
not less thun fourteen thousand. Tho
extent of its business is presented In
detailed statements given elsewhere
in this sheet. Though the monetary
stringency and stagnation of trade,
everywhere ooraplainerl of, have se
riously affected business here too, the
figures und stalisties givenshow the
great vitality and well-maintained
proportions of the trade of our city, j
MUSCOGEE COUNTY.
There ire vs find lanls in Muscogee
county n<! Wny in the Suite. Cohftnbm in
the capital of the county, and the trade of
the county centres here. The people are
as proud of Columbus ns a manufactur
ing city as they arc of there own homes.
In the county arc several places that buy
from Columbus and sell to the people.
Jones’ Cuossino is one of the moßt im
portant points. At this place there is a
store and postotfice, and it is the head
centre si a rich farming district.
Wy.nnton lies just outside tho city on
the east. Sonic of Uie best people in the
county live there. They tlo their busi
ngs in yoluthbuH.
Likwood lies just cast of the city, and
joins the city limits. There are no stores
there, but the population adds to Colum
bus prosperity.
Bballwood Is another of the surburb
an places around Columbus. Tho good
people who ruside in this place have their
business with us.

its southern border; also Chambers,
penetrated by the East Ala., & Chat
tanooga Railroad, connecting with
the Western; and Tallupoosa, crossed
by tho Suvannah & Memphis Rail
road, also connecting with tho West
ern. All of these are flno and popu
lous counties, and the trado of Co
lumbus with them is valuable and
constantly growing.
VICTORY!
Fuller returns from Indiana, re
ceived yesterday, show that the Dem
ocrats carried tho State handsomely;
and at tho time of writing this wo are
not without hope that tho Democrats
have also carried Ohio—the vote
seems to be so olose. As to Wost
Virginia, the only question is where
tho Democratic majority will stop,
whether abovo or bolow 10,000- a very
largo and decisive majority for so
small a State.
It is now shown that the great ad
vantage of tho October skirmish is
on our side. Tilden nnd Hendricks
may ulmost “read their title clear”
to the Presidency and Vice Presiden
cy. With Indiana and New York,
and 123 votes hardly disputed from
tho Southern States, they would lack
only 12 Electoral votes to secure a
majority in the College, and
hardly a doubt can be enter
tained of their getting twice
as many inNew Jersey, Connecticut,
California. Oregon and Louisiana, to
say nothing of the lino chances in
Ohio, Peensylvanio, Illinois, Now
Hampshire, &c.
The night of our adversity is clos
ing, the brightening dawn appears,
and soon the glorious sun of victory
and deliverance will rise upon a re
joicing people.
HON H. It. HABRI* AT nTIITI.*VH.I,E.
Whitesville, Ga„ Oct. 11,157 G.
Editor Times: Your correspondent
attended the meeting ut Whitesville
to-day, to hear the address of the
Hon. 11. R. Harris. Whitesville is
locatod about 12 miles northwest of
Hamilton, surrounded by fertile,
well cultivated farms. Several
stores, a bar-room and billiard sa
loon, und the gin faltory of Messrs.
Clemons & King are found here, all
apparently doing very well. Tho
citizens are ull clever aud hospitable
—and warm supportors of tho Times.
But a word about Mr. Harris’
spoecta. He thoroughly ventilated
the corruption of tho Republican par
ty, as developed by the lato Demo
cratic House of Representatives;
spoke of the high rates of taxation
heaped upon tho people by this par
ty ; of tho millions of acres of Gov
ernment land given wealthy railroad
corporations, that should have been
devoted to educational purposes; and
made an appeal for reform and re
trenchment. He showed very con
clusively that this could only be done
by a complete change in the admin
istration of tho Government; and to
do this, there must be a united effort
on the part of tho Democrats in No
vember.
Mr. Harris ia an earnest, forcible
speaker, and during his address he
was frequently applauded.
Air. Harris was followed in an ablo
speech by Judge Mabry, of LaGrange.
F. M. Longley and T. O. Whitaker,
Esqs, of LaGrange, were then called
for, both of whom made a few point
ed and appropriate remarks.
The meeting was not largely at
tended, owing to the fact that the
Superior Court is in session at Ham
ilton, and many were there. The
meeting dosed with hearty good feel
ing for Harris, and a determination
on the purt ot tho people to poll a
full vote for him in November. The
people throughout Harris seem to
have made up their minds to put
down independents, nnd this cannot
be more strongly evinced than It will
bo at the polls.
I here mot throe of our formor citi
zens, Messrs. Waltor Hood, John
King and Fred Clemons, all of whom
are in business here and seem to be
doing well.
The fanners generally through this
soctlon are carrying thoir ootton to
Columbus this seuson, and those
who ,have returned express thern
solves well pleased with it ns a
market. “De.”
Thk Tallatoosa Copper Mine.—
Mr. George Greenliow, who lias just re
turned from a visit to the Ducktown
Mint’s in Tennessee, and the Tallapoosa
in llarralson ouauty, Georgia, allowed us
several specimens yesterday, of the,; ore
taken from each. The mineral rock of
the latter is much darker and softer, and
doeiikidly richer iu the pure metal. The
percentage of pure copper in the Duck
town vein, which yields a profit of $200,-
000 annually, is but 5 per cent., and the
ore has to be hauled by wagons forty
three niUea. The metal yield of the Tal
lapoosa is 8 1-2 per cent., and the distanoe
from railway transportation but twelve
miles. This is n fine exhibit for the Geor
gia mine, and we trust our Macon stock
holders will realize a handsome thing by
their Investments in the Tallapoosa.—
Macon Telegraph.
A lbiisoxEß confined iu the jail of
Taylor county broke out of that institu
tion on Monday, The citizens turned
out iu hot pursuit, captured him, and
then very generously paid his fine and let
him go. All of which displayed a very
good feeling, for tho poor fel
low was confined for drunkennee
and disorderly conduct, and by his
recapture and subsequent release the
majesty of the law was vindicated, but at
the same time tempered with mercy.
Is Hie XktoAob lVWorce Oourl lately a
woman prayod for cllßaolutfon of tier mar
riage on the ground that slio was insane 1
at the time it took place. She was then
so prostrated with grief at the loss of her j
husband as to lose her reason, aud a man
in -much humbler station of life than
herself persuaded her to marry him. She
had sbice been in an asylum, but was now
sane. The evidence being perfectly satis
factory, the marriage was dissolved.
The Cincinnati Enquirer says there
are eighty thousand ofllco holders
who are contributing their money to
keep Tilden out of the White House.
They want no change. Treasury
rats are always tenacious of their
good quarters.
CONDENSED CiKORUI.t SEWS.
—Judge Jonas Iloylc, formerly of At
lanta, died suddenly on Monday at New
nan, of heart disease.
—The University at Alliens re-opened
on Wednesday of last week. The Au
gusta Chronicle says that the attendance
was beyond general expectation.
—The banner counties of Georgia rank
as follows: In Wilkes, Wilkinson, Telfair
and McDuffie, not n single Radical vote
was cast; in Columbia, Dodge and Jeffer
son, only one Radical voto was cast.
- The Athens Watchman, in its notice
oi Bunks Superior Court, says: The rev
enue department has been making some
raids upon this county, und have arrested
and carried off a number of the citizens,
charged with illicit distilling, Ac.
■—The Journal says that the members
of the Presbyterian Church of Hamilton
have unanimously called Rev. M. Mc-
Kay, of Fort Gaines, Ga., to the pastorate
of this place. The vacancy is caused by
the resignation of Rev. G. W. Maxon,
who has taken charge of the College in
Talbotton.
—Wc quote as follows from the Chron
icloand Sentinel: General Braxton Bragg )
who died recently in Texas, was insured
for $40,000. Ten thousand dollars of
this amount was taken in the Piedmont
and Arlington Life Insurance Company.
We understand General Bragg lias no
children. His insurance goes to his wife.
He has a brother residing in Mobile.
—The Hamilton Journal says that
Judge Crawford, in his charge, speaking
of the public buildings of Harris county,
said the Court-house could stand inspec
tion better than any lie ever knew. For
forty-three years it had been inspected,
and always recommend fixing up, but it
remained the same old tiling. He sug
gested that they fix it up, and give some
comfort to the jurors and visitors.
The Hinesvillo Gazelle exposes a
Radical trick to gather all the ne
groes from the surrounding country
at Riceboro, Liberty county, on the
day of the election. A notice was
published that Government rations
would be distributed there that day
to all persons who would apply. The
negroes were of course duly on hand,
but not the rations. The negroes
numbered five hundred able-bodied
voters, and the rations “nary one.”
We learn from the Atlanta Times that
that Mr, Jonathan Norcross has gone to
the Centennial. And this suggests to us
the idea that the great expedition ought
to be prolonged through November, to
give to the great defeated of that month
an opportunity to mako a patriotic and
recuperating tour to the big show.
