Thrilling and sanguinary romances which make the blood run oold are the best Bummer reading. The slim attendanoe at the oburohes on Sunday is an evidence that many of our people have left the oity for the summer.

Among the exciting July races should be mentioned those betwoen the huckleberries and the flies, to see wbioh oan get under the pie oruBt first. Gen. J. B. Weaver, the Greenback candidate for President, is announoed to speak iu this oity on the 221 inst.

He ii said to be a very interesting talker. There will ba a mite meeting at the residence of Mr. S. Whitaker, on Washington street, tc-night for the benefit of E. Churoh Sunday School library.

We are veiy glad to state that the condition of Mrs. M. H. Cooke was considerably improved yesterday. She was able to sit up for a while, and her friends were much rejoiced at her improvement.

Dr. Miohe now thinks that her reoovery is ceitain. An eld citizen remarks that there have been walking matches, talking matches and fasting matt hes the letter for 40 days. He wants to wager a large amount of money that no earthly inducement oould get his wife to hold her tongue for the spaoe of 40 days. Joe Robinson's ioe wagon horse ran away again Sunday morning, smashing up the vehicle coniiiderably.

Whenever matters beoome too quiet about the corner of Monroe, Couit and Coosa streets, Joe Robinson's horse runs away and smashes np a wagon. This furnishes exoitemont enough to make the horse believe he has done a first olaas job. A colored couple were married a few days einoe by 'Squire Shorter of this oity. After the oeremony had been duly pronounced, the man inquired of the 'Squire if he oould whip his wife when he thought she needed it. The 'Squire replied no, and informed him that he had no shadow of a right to whip his wife.

"Well, replied the man, "ef you will say dat agin, and write it down iu dar, I'll be willin' to pBy yer dou ble price fur de services." Mr. D. Doron, general superintandent of oonsfruotion of the Auierioan Union Telegraph Company is in the oity looking after the interests of his company. He says that the through line to Mobile will be oomplete in about three weeks; that the line is finished between Mobile and New Orleans and only about 85 miles remain between this city and Mobile. Mr.

Doren oame here from Cincinnati and says there is a oontiderabie difference In the temperature of the two it hoing muoh hero than there. ltev. N. B. Williams, on his return from the tho Alabama Baptist State Convention has kindly consented to lecture for the Young Men's Christian ABSOoiation to-night (July 20tb).

Although yet a young man, Mr. Williams baa spent five years in China. He is well known to many of out fellow citizens, and is a brother of our fellow towns man Chitles K. Williams, of tho firm of Williams Cook. The leoture will be one of interest, as it pertains to his five years in China.

We hope his old ftiends and others will give him a good audienoo tonight. It is said that among the negroes wife whipping is becomming remarkably 00m-nion. The reoords of tha Juatioe's courts in this oity are full of suoh oases, and one of the oldest Justioos in the county yester day stated that it was nothing unusual for negro men to whip their wives npon the least pretext. He had known of at least one case in whioh the wife'was so nnmerci-. fully beaten that she died shortly thereafter.

Nine -tenths of the women thus outraged refuse, probably through fear, to bring any oharges against their husbands, and thus the oruel practioe is constantly inoreasing. Some people hold to the theory that mis fortune braoes a man up. Perhaps it does; but a few days inco a man out in Bogus- homa got under six lengths of falling stovepipe, and, when ho staggered from under it, fell down stairs and npset a man with a basket of eggs who had just come in; the man yanked him out of the egg-basket and ohuoked him into the street, where he was run over by a butohor's cart and bitten by a cross dog, and though this was quite a streak of misfortune, nevertheless, instead of being braced np by It, be was made as limp as a wet rag, and utterly good for nothing. Where's your theory? No efforts have been spared to make the dn Via Club exonrsion this evening as pleasant as possible; all arrangements have been mode, and participants are insured a delightful time in advonoe. The silver oor- net band will furnish the muslo.

in sending out invitations some of the (riends of the olub have been unintentionally over-innkfld. and to such as have received invlta1, Hons to any of the entertainments during the past season, an invitation is given for the present ocoasion. It would be advis able to prooure tiokets before going to the boat, as a great deal cf trouble and annoyance oan be thereby avoided. The Charleston Nerni and Courier says that tho rioe orop on the Aahepoo, Cooper and Combahee rivers is represented to be in a very unsatisfactory oondition. The drouth has been fearful and although some heavy rains have fallen during the last two or three weeks, without more abundant showers the orops are likely to ba very seriously damaged.

The swamps and lowlands at the souroe of the rivers have been so dry for three years past that the ground has oraoked open and a new growth has com mended in all the water reserves. The salt water has run up the three rivers into the rioe regions, and threatens destruotion to the fields if taken Into the gates. A prominent merohant of Holly Springe, writes under date of November 19, 1877: "Tutt's Pills are doing mighty won-rlnrn in this State, and are becoming more DODular every day.

We shall en deavor not to do lha oiub injustice agcia. Cortainly we did not mean to do injustice to anybody by the unfortunate paragrcrh. A dispatch elsewhere from New Odmus states emphatically that there has not beon a cae of yellow fevor there this season. As to the report that there was yellow fever there, the facts are that the bark Exoelsior arrived at that port on July 5th, being fifty-eight days from Uio de Janeiro. Tho vessel had boon detained at the quarantino station twelvo days and been thoroughly fumigated, no case of sickness having oc curred.

On Saturday, July 101b, James Kennedy, a sailor, aged nineteen, a native of Sootland, was sent to tho Touro Infirm ary. The patient presented the symptoms of yellow fever and died on Saturday night, The Board of Health at onoe ordered the bark to return to the quarantine station, and have taken every precaution to protect tho health of the cily. On tha 13 th two more oases ocourred on the bark and were removed to the hospital. No indigenous oaso has occurred There was a general pitched battle among the negroes on the Freeman's Band planta tion on Sunday. That plaoe is somewhat noted for troubles among ooiored people, but it appears that Sunday's performances eolipsed anything of the kind in the former history of the bend.

Jim Lawis, Sr it appears had a fight with a bevy of negro women and duriag the struggle Jim shot one of them named Bettie Powell with a pistol, inflicting a slight wound. Ha also performed hari-kari on Susan Powell's head with a pine knot. During the melee bushels of rocks and stones were brought into requisition and the combatants plied eaoh other in Oriental style. Sunday afternoon the wounded women oame to the oity to have Lawis arrested and prooeeded to 'Squire Workman's office where they mado the neoessary affidavits. As the women walked through the streets with their heads, faces andolothing covered with blood, they were objeots of real sympathy on the part of some good oitizens who supposed that some great misfortune had befallen thtm.

Bat when it was learned that tbey had been engaged in a regular knock down and drag out fight on the Sabbath day, all sympathy vanished and the opinion was freely expressed that all suoh viragos ought to be where they oould not engage In such shameful violations of the law. The warrants for the arrest of Jim Lewis were duly executed and when it was found how easy a matter it was to arrest him, the mother of the wounded woman also swore out a warrant against him, charging hi with having made an assault on her also. Tha wounded woman charges him with assault with intent to murder. When Jim reached the magistrate's office yesterday morning and learned the facts he also made affidavit against some of tho women and bad them arrested for attaoking him. In order to make the case appear as ferocious as possible, the women brought about a bushel of the rooks and stones to the 'Squire's offloe, to be used, as testimony against Jim Lewis.

The oase will ba tried befoie Justloe Workman at 9 o'clock this morning. R. 0. Shorter, represents the State and Capt. John G.
