An Autumn Morning.

From, tho Columbus Dispatch.
There's a wondrous wealth of beauty IN the
morning
OF these plenty giving, verdure-dying
days,
ing
At the kisses of the golden autumn rays.
Then the birds, upon their circllng ways are
singing
Golden music from their dainty feathered
thrOats.
And the morning glores from their heights
are cinging
Like so many dew besprent chromatic notes.
Fen the air through which the sunbeams soft
are falling
Has besides a gentle touch mellow tint;
And the scene that all the senses is enthrall-
ing
Seems to catch the golden hue of Natures
mint.

A Cowboy in New York.
From the Mem York Journal.


A tau we'll bronzed young man, with a
wide briu.med hat and long hair that fell
over a pair of broad shoulders. sauntered
down Twenty-third street yesterday opposite
the Eden Musee. He stopped and for some
moments gazed intently at the group of wax
figures.
He finally purchased ticket and went to

considered himself insulted, produced a huge
revolver, and shouted:
Come, now, its poker or fun "
He was finally quoted and advised to put
up his gun" as poker was forbidden game
in Gotham. number OF ladies who had
gathered around the cowboy evidently con-
sidered him part Of the entertainment, and
enjoyed it hugely.

Even staid and conservative Mobile has
recognized its mistake in levying tax
on drummers, and on last Monday abol-
ished il. Is it possible that Savannah
wants to be the only city in the country
that levies tax OF this kind? She certain
ly VIII be if she clings to it much longer.
Does not the Council know that all the
drummers who visit the city do not pay
the tax? Indeed, if reports are true,
quite large percentage of them escape
1t in one way and another. Is it not un-
just that some should be required to pay
it while others escape it?
Who are those who want the tax? Are
they interested in the prosperity of the
city? Have not about all the merchants
petitioned to have the tax abolished
They are the ones who asked to have it
imposed, and if they are agreed that they
made a mistake, why should the mistake
be persisted in?
A merchant few days ago said that to
make the city free to drummers would not
only bring good deal of money into the
city, but would also have the effect OF
cheapening articles Of food and clothing,
because the merchants would be able to
buy at better advantage than they now do.
The Council should not stand in the
way OF lower prices. Let our people have
food and clothing as cheaply as they can
get them. The impression is very general
that the cost Of living is higher here than
in any city in the south. Let us 1T least
do what we can to change that Impress
ion.
The proposition to limit drummers to
sell goods in the city five days IN year
without the payment Of the tax is not
wise. 1t will put nothing in the city
treasury and will not prevent visitors,
who are suspected of being drummers
who have exceeded the untaxed limit of
their stay, from being Swallowed by
detectives. Let the tax be abolished
altogether. That is the wisest and best
way 20 deal with the matter,

Wards Story.

Ferdinand Wards alleged confession,
a portion of which appeared in our special
dispatches yesterday, occupies about ten
columns of the New York Herald.
A close reading of it fails to settle the
question with respect TO what became Of
all the money that the firm OF Grant &
Ward received. 1t Is easy to understand
what become of the vast sums which " ar
ner drew out Of the firm above what he
put IN, and Ward shows what he did
with his money, but it is not so clear
what became Of the profits Of Gen. Grant
and his sons. There is no statement
that they drew out their profits
and lost them in outside
speculations. The probabilities are that
they left their money in the firm and lost
it. They had vast fortunes on the books
Of the firm, but very little actual cash.
The funny part Of the whole business ia

who were drawing extraordinary profits

When In The Wrong Channel

The bile wreaks grievOus injury. Head
aches, constipation, pain in the liver and
stomach, jaundice, nausea ensue. A few
doses of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters will
reform these evils and prevent further in
juries. 1t is pleasant aperient, its ac-
ton upon the bowels being unaccom-
panied by gripping. The liver is both
regulated and stimulated by it, and as it
is very impolitic to disregard disorder OF
that organ, which through neglect may
eliminate in dangerous congestion and
hepatic abcess, the Bitters should be re-
sorted to at an early stage. Failure to do
this renders contest with the malady
more protraeted. Fever and ague, rheu-
matisn, kidney and bladder trouble, are
remedied by this fine medicine, and the
increasing infirmities of age mitigated by
it. 1t may also be used in eonvalescence
with advantages as it hastens the retOra-
tion of vigor.
