DISASTROUS FIRES.


Mrs. McGehee declined to serve as Hospital-keeper with the allowances made, and Mrs. Stringfield was elected.


On Monday night, the 19th of January, the large brick building on the corner of Oglethorpe and Randolph streets- the lower rooms of which were occupied as the Post-office, and the upper story as the boarding-house of Mrs. Teasdale- was consumed by fire. The most valuable matter in the Post-office was saved, but a few mail-bags were burnt. Mrs. Teasdale lost nearly all her household effects. The building belonged to Scaborn Jones, Esq., and had long been used as the Post-office. The fire was no doubt accidental. The Post-office was removed to the corner of Randolph and Broad streets, then known as the Manley & Hodges corner.


Another great fire occurred on the morning of the 3d of February, breaking out in the boot and shoe store of Peter Biehler on Randolph street. It burnt all the houses on the south side of Randolph street from two doors west of the En- quirer office to the corner of Broad, and all on the east side of Broad street to and including Dr. Ware's drug store. This included four brick buildings on Randolph street, and five on Broad street. The parties burnt out on Randolph street were P. Biehler, the jewelry establishments of K. Saylor and G. Jordan, the barber shop of Wm. Paine and Weems, the office of Dr. Fogle, dentist. On Broad street, the drug stores of Messrs. Brooks & Chapman and Dr. R. A. Ware, and three dry goods stores were burnt, with a portion of the goods in each of them. Over the burnt stores on Broad street were the law offices of L. T. Downing and John Peabody, Esqs., and the offices of Dr. J. L. Cheney, and Drs. Lee & Phelps: The supply of water was very limited, and to this cause was due the wide-spread destruction by the fire. Four of the buildings on Randolph street were owned by H. H. Epping, also two on Broad street. Dr. Ware, Mr. Downing, and Mr. Morris Kopman each owned one of the burnt buildings.


At a special election held on the 7th of February, Thomas Brassill for the 2d, and Wm. H. Griswold for the 3d, were

LOCAL DEFENCE.


elected Aldermen to fill vacancies caused by the resignation of Aldermen King and Jeter; and on the 28th of February, II. M. Jeter was elected an Alderman of the 1st Ward to fill a vacancy caused by the resignation of Ald'n McKendrec. Alderman McKendree was re-elected in March to fill a vacan- cy caused by the resignation of Alderman W. W. Flewellen.


A large company was formed to go to the defence of Sa- vannah, then threatened, on the 21st of February. The fol- lowing officers were elected : F. G. Wilkins, Captain; Jas. M. Everett, 1st Lieutenant ; P. J. Phillips, 2d; D. B. Thompson, 3d ; James F. Bozeman, 4th. The services of the company were tendered to Gen. Mercer, commanding at Savannah.


A company was formed in Columbus in March, to join Col. Evans' regiment for the Florida service. It organized on the 16th of that month by the election of N. W. Garrard, Capt .; J. F. Burch, Ist Lieutenant ; D. B. Booher, 2d ; and Stewart Kelly, Brevet 2d.


On account of the presence of the enemy's vessels in the bay, river connection with Apalachicola was suspended this year. Boats ran from Columbus to Chattahoochee, about the mouth of the Flint river.


In July, at the request of Confederate officers in local com- mand, Council instructed the Mayor to have all the citizens of Columbus capable of bearing arms to be enrolled for any emergency requiring local defence. In accordance with this call, there was a general enrollment in the city and county, and seven or eight companies met at the Court-house on the 18th of July, and formed a regiment, electing F. G. Wilkins, Colonel; J. R. Ivey, Lieutenant Colonel; and Jerry Slade, Major. But this organization appears to have been super- seded by a regular requisition made by President Davis upon Gov. Brown for the enrollment of 8,000 men for local defence in Georgia. In response to this last call, a regiment was formed at Columbus on the 22d of August, of companies from Muscogee, Harris, Talbot, Taylor, Marion, Chattahoo-

chee and Stewart counties. W. L. Salisbury was elected Colonel; Flynn Hargett, Lieutenant Colonel ; Capt. Curley, Major. The Columbus and Muscogee companies in this reg- iment were Co. A City Guards, Capt. J. M. Everett; Co. B City Guards, Lieutenant Brannon ; Ivey Guards, Capt. Park ; Chattahoochee Defenders, Capt. Russell.


An "Independent Home Guard" Company of seventy-five men, composed of men over forty-five years of age, was also organized-Dr. J. A. Urquhart, Captain ; Dr. R. A. Ware, F. C. Johnson and Wm. B. Langdon, Lieutenants; F. M. Brooks, W. A. Douglass, B. S. Hardaway, John S. Allen and Charles Mims, Sergeants ; N. L. Howard, W. L. Stapler, C. E. Johnson and J. I. Lovelace, Corporals; H. Middlebrook, Treasurer ; R. P. Spencer, Secretary. Two cavalry companies for the same service, under command of Captains Strother and Cheney, were also formed.


The news of the death of Gen. Paul J. Semmes, Col. John A. Jones, and many other officers and privates, killed in the disastrous battle of Gettysburg, caused much sorrow in Co- lumbus. Council passed resolutions expressing the deepest regret for the death of General Semmes and sympathy for his family, and calling a meeting of citizens to make arrange- ments for the suitable reception and burial of his remains. The meeting was held on the 16th of July, and suitable ar- rangements made to pay the last sad honors to the deceased citizen and soldier.


Council in November appropriated $5,000 additional to regular appropriations to assist needy and indigent families of absent soldiers in the payment of their house rent.


A registration of voters of the city was this year made in accordance with law, and the total number registered was 365. This number was evidently short of a full registration, though so many citizens were absent, being in the Confeder- ate service.


Quotations of prices in July : Salt, 30@35c. per Ib; Flour, 25@30c. per lb .; Pork, 50@60c. per lb .; Bacon, $1@$1.25 per

INCIDENTS.


A sensation was created in the city, in April, by news of the death of Robert Emmet Dixon, of Columbus, at Rich- mond. He was clerk of the Confederate House of Represen- tatives, and was shot by R. E. Forde, of Kentucky, an assist- ant clerk.


Among the new industries created by the war was a Nail Factory established in Girard by Messrs. D. H. Fowler & Co., of New Orleans. It was run very actively, and turned out a great deal of work of fair quality.


Mr. Robert Davis, bridge-keeper, was found dead on the river bank, on the 4th of September. He had left his house in apparent health but a short time before the finding of his body, which bore no marks of violence or external injury. .


On the 13th of October, about one o'clock p. m., there was a general jail delivery. The prisoners rushed upon the jailor as he was opening the door to leave the jail, overpowered him, and succeeded in making their escape. Six or seven white men, confined for counterfeiting and other offences, es- caped.


A woman named Smith, living in the lower part of the city, was shot and killed on the 14th of October, by a soldier named Joe Overton, from Arkansas. He was arrested.


The M. E. Conference met in Columbus on the 25th of No- vember-Bishop Early, presiding.


PERSONAL.


J. L. Morton was Chief Engineer, and S. E. Lawhon, Ass't Engineer of the Fire Department.


The election in October resulted in the choice of Col. Jas. M. Chambers as Senator for the District, and Jas. M. Russell and R. R. Hawes as Representatives of Muscogee.


Rev. C. R. Jewett was Presiding Elder of the Columbus
