One of the persona arrested waa Joaeph Fry who it a nephew or other near rota tive of Footer Blodgett—a boarder at hie house and member of Me family, and who has been hie confidential secretary or clerk in the office of Saporintcadcmt of the Wcotorn and Atlantic Rail road. . the Other* raetUbte of* promi nent mercantile firm in the city. Utcae parties were both arreated at the instance of Foster Blodgett, who (Staged 'them, under oath, with cheating and swindling the State, or the Mate Road, tnt of sixteen humtred dollars 1 The parties were brought before Judge B. D. Smith, If. P gave bond in the sum of Tiro Thousand Btffy l for their 0ge*raaae at the Superior Court to answer to the charge. Fry, as soon as the bond was given, forfeited hi* seoagniaaaoe and left the city. The merchant arrested has do itiaa of leaving, bat is going to stay, at tend court, and see the oaae oat—so we to be made ? State Indorsement foj mil- roads, used to lie limited to nlxuit 810, 000 per mile, through n hilly ounfry— not in Uiu uubtok* n level in nil the pint- lands of Southern Ooorgin, where but little nr no grading is to be done. The Cert,-raviUe and Van Wart Rail road low a State indoraeiuuit of 812,000 per mile, though it iH nimih.g through a country where it is likely that it will not pay stockholders anything like u fair return upon the cost of construction. Wo trust the next Legislature will put an end to the indorsement of railroad bonds, except under greater caution than haa heretofore ban exercised. Roads chartered and having this in dorsement arc objects of speoilstiou, and men scramble for possession of the char tor, solely with the view of handling the indorsed bonds We will say more upon this subject at another time. For more than a year, certain partice have made it their special business to watch narrowly, in order to learn where the earnings of the State Road were go ing to, and exactly what tiacann of the half minion of dotlan which Foster Blodgett onght to have paid into the State Treasury. They have carefully picked up threads here and there, and preserved them with sleepless vigilance, giving heed to bat little else. They, it seems, had either made some discoveries which were tangible, or were on the eve of getting e doe that was likely to make some nab developments, when Foster Blodgett, who mast here known or sus- pooted what was going on, oauaed the arrest of th* persons alluded to, oluwgiug them with awimlling the State Road in the cam of $1,000! with him a large amount of monoy—per lisps I veuty-five or thirty thousand dol lore, more or less -which justly belongs to the people of Georgia, and that he will novor be seen here egain, unices he is caught and brought bsek by force, which we hope will be the case. It is strange that these arrests should have been made at the instance of Fos- tcr Blodgett; that Uio sum involved, as nurnod in the warrant is only 81,000; that tho investigation before tho magis trate should have lioon so quiotly con ducted—waroely any ono knowing any thing of it, and that hail should have been fixed at the pitiful sum of 82,000, and that Fry should have had an oppor tunity to escape 1 All these things arc auspicious. Wo hope the earnest effort to unearth the secrets of the financial administration of lttiUoek.and Blodgett will be pursued vigorously, till they are all fully unearth ed and exposed to the public gase ; and that whoever may be found to he guilty, may be made to suffer the extreme pen city of We law. Railroad Hlr|«. Some time ago Col. Klulbfrt issued call lor n Convention or the Corporators of the miotgsttiied Railways in Guorgia, to meet in this city to-morrow. This call states thnt the loot Legislature chartered thirty-tiro Roads, granting thorn “ liberal aid," by obliging the State to iudorae their bonds. We do not know that this Convention will assemble. We have no notice to that effect, and think it not unlikely the call will l>c a failure—though the corporators may assemble. We, however; * are tired of State in dorsement of Rallrond Bonds—especUQly such indorsement as lias beau given in the past; and to illustrate our Opposition we will toko a case in point, vix : The Brunswick and Albany Railroad. The Governor hi his hotter to 'the Ku Klux Committee says, the State Hood lias endorsed tho bonds of thte road to tho amount of Jt/leen thousand daihtrt jter mile—in goltL That road is located through a flat pine laud country almost barren and unpro ductive, and not promising umoh support to a railroad. The eouotiy being ao near ly level, hut little gaadfef it*or bee been necessary. It is said that the oost of construction thus far haa not exoeedod eight or ten thousand dollars per mile, while the State's endorsement is 815,000 —m gold on caoh.mile I This son of 815,080 on each mile in gold, with interest in gold, the State is bound for, unless the Stockholders of the road shgjl rggalsrfy pagrj the intersat on tho bond|, and pay tho bonds them selves at maturity. How fltt0«t ttnald be for those who own or control the aaad, te setae* to pay| the interest on those bonds SO by tlm Slate I In that ease the State would be compellod to step forward and pay the interest, take pOteeaioif of the road and sell it under its lien, in which cane it wusrid in all probability bring from 86,800 to 88,800 per mile —perhaps not half the sarnat lor which the Sate is liable. This Weald leave the remainder of the 815,000 per mile to be paid by the Btate 004 hdten from the pocket* of The Macon Telegraph. Tbae he* been for some time post, considerable complaint at the irregularity of tho TUajruph in reaching tho newspa per offices in this city, and Jadgo Dun ning, oar attentive l’ost Muster, has many times been asked why it did not ar rive in doe lime. Yestgrday afternoon, about U o'clock, he oomc to oar office with Sunday's issue of that paper, addressed to Tut Sen, which onght to huvo reached us by mail the day before. It had been sent through by iipirm in a separate mail-bag, and the Express Company, not delivering freight on Sunday, did not carry it to tho Poat- office natil to-day. / • Mr Clisby ought to have his mail made up and put in the city Foat-offlco in time to oomri up on the morning train from Macon. This would cure the oomplaiut. We return thanks to Judge Dunniug for his courtesy in informing us whero the trouble is. Uc has, in several cases within our knowledge, taken unusual pains to have oil mail matter passing through his oflloo promptly delivered and irregularities cured. TMKKM TIMurnV IS ■»(«« CO.

C’rucltjr to Aafuftli, We were forcibly'imprcssed with the necessity of the establishment of s branch of the Society tor the Freventiuu of Cru elty to Animals in this city, yesterday, by seeing one of a span of horses driven through tho streets, upon whose neck the oullar hud mudo a sore an inch deep and three inches long. Thu tup of the collar had been opened, hut the liamu- stiap worked back and forth in tho quiv ering flesh at overy movement of the suf fering animal. Tho driver drove stolidly along, apparently unmindful of the agony he was inflicting on tho horse.

Step Knlb.-l— Wlfr Nu|ijt<t»<-<l to Wav. In.llgoted III. llorrll.li Dr Ml. We learn from a private letter received by a gentleman in Griflln, that a horrible la artier waa oommittod in Macon oonuty last Thursday, on the person of a Mr. Joiner, in that county, under tho follow ing circumstances : Tho widow of a Mr. Devcroux married a Mr. Lester, and after his doatli married a Mr. Join or. lly tho first husband, sho T . ■ , „ , ... . had a sou Dovercux, who during her first It» 1 relieved that Fry has carried off ... , . • ... . . , . , and ssoond widowhood, attended to busi ness fur her. After her marriage to Join er, be attended to her husinees. Several notes had been presented to him slgnod by Devoreux, which were paid; but on a reoont occasion Mr. Joiner had de clined to pay a note of considerable amount, when his wife told him thnt he must pay itor leave the plantation quickly, and threatoued to leave herself if it was not done, Mr. Joiner replied Hist ha was in no way responsible for tne note, and would neither pny it or L-nvo the plane, and iutemled to gather it. The next day young Devoreux came and on the return of Mr. Joiner from tho Held, asked fur a private eonvuraatiou, which was granted. Mr. Joiner refloated his determination not to pay the note, when Mr. D. rose up and fired at him Tho shot missed, when Mr. Joiner caught him and threw him out of tho pioaxu Mr. Joiner went to his room to get his pistol from under tho head of his bed, but it had been removed. Young Bov CMS* followed him and fired the aacond shot, which struck Mr. Joiner, und then the third, which killed him. Mrs. Joiner then gathered up what mousy she had, gave it to her son, who fled, and is still at huge. It is supposed that aba will be arms toil ss accessory to the killing. IHIVI'lt DaLKON M'HINO*. A svieutifle * practitioner of medicine, aud one who usually givip his mind to tho study of every subject which may oourt investigation, has laxui wool gathering over a liottlo of water from the famed Ponce de Leon Spring, which line attracted so much of the pnblic attention lately, n»id yesterday gave us the benefit of hit anal} sis of tbe virtues of Ponce de Loon. .He says that when the fountain wan first diaoeverpd by the railroad hands it was a spring of pure, cold, fret-stone water, aud that iu enter to make it avail able anil arvo os a convenience for the workmen, that numerous loga were piled up around it, and the gentle, placid spring otherwise cultivated. That among the lugs thus used wns one of poplar, on of red Oak, one of pine, and a lot of rotten state used iu the oonatauotiunof the curbing. That the sole mineral (so- called) virtuos of the spring on wholly due to tho chemical combination of the Maher above mautiouod, and as soon ss this becomes extracted that the water will be as usual, or may bo insipid. Now, if this is tamo, it «poils the hopes of many an old “played out" invalid, w ho had cherished the thought of one day be coming yonng aud vigorous by its won derful renovating powers. Win Is Hat A Louisville, Ky., dispatch of tho 8th toot. says. This morning on a coal flat, at the foot of Brooks street, the clothing of a uu supposed to bedrowasd, waa found an<0urncd over to the police. In the MAYOK'S UltlttT. fectionerica bought Hay 2,1871, of Frank E. Block, of Atlanta, Oa., another for hoop skirts, veils, shawls, etc., bought December 12, 1870, of J. Botbaohild, of Chattanooga, Teen., aud tho third for :oods bought February 8, 1871, of J. A Sons, Chattanooga. There is a ii which mystery about the affair sraayttnaabte tosolye. i Mm pottos The Chamber was crowded. Tho ne groes were largely in the majority, and, all tliu vcntillatiuu which I’at. Fitxgih- bon was allowed to give did net suffice, iu tho least, to rarify the Indcncd atmos phere. Tliroo cases were at uuoc continued. When a felon wasn’t exaotly ready, or a witness wns absent, tho case wont over illl to-day. At this rule 1,123 eases have been dis posed of this year up to yesterday. This shows a woudorful proffoiency some where, and when that number was called, DAK. STANTON sung out "Keno.” He held the oord, aud wheu Jouscu wcqt around to see if tho keno was correct, ho told tho deulor that it was, and that Dan. was entitled to the pool. Wheu that individual walked Up to the desk to get his money, his Honor asked him if he was any kin to Mr. Secretary Ed. Stanton. Bon. told him he was first oousiu to that Cabinet officer, and that ho hud acted ns a kind of sub- clerk with him during tho late war. As Bail, was a nigger and he had only been kicking up a little rebellion, the war tax wns put down at 810 and costs. CATUEHIKE UUKliN was too black for an ungel, aud smelt too much like old gourds to be n desirable partner in a long cotillion. She was charged with being drnuk on the streets. She hud no bolter semie than to own np. When his Honor got so ashamed of Katie that he could hardly look bar in tho face. Ho kept uu shaming hor till at last she offered him ten dollars to hush, which closed the trade, and Jouscu took the money, and Faddy Fite, sung “Wearing of the Green.” JOHN W ARD was a nigger taken np in the Fourth Ward. IIo is the chap who owns tho ducks, aud wheu an officer came across him he hnd almost finished enrsing the wsy his ducks went, and turned his anathemas towards a church meeting.— Ho says he thought the gathering was n ball, and ha not being oueof the invited guests, ho simply wns venting his disgust at the whole thing. The Mayor asked Jonsen what tho price of ball-tickots in that Ward, and Jonsen meekly replied five dollars." PRINCE EDWARD REO had an interest in Ward's ducks, and wheu those fowls wont where tho violets bloom, it made him mod too. Ho took on some beer, and uu officer thonght Edward was drnuk. Hu thought that ho never walked slraightor in his life.—- However, ss lie said, one word brought os two, and the first tiling Bd knew ho wns iu tho jug without a red. His Hun- or thought John wns tight, and charged him ton dollars for his thoughts. LUC WESTERS looked like sho wus a Ku Klux, and the witnesses said sho cursed like a circus man. Leu said she did swear some, and was glad that bIio was able to do ao. She had stolon s comet from another girl, and a calico dress liesiiles. Lon appeared to tho Court that she was in neod of both these articles—particularly tho oorset,— Sho cursed and swore so that tho Court was afraid ahe would looae what little character aho ever had; and asked her if her exchequer would warrant a loan of 810. Louisin wns like her little cousin the call run over, and said not a word. jacor awtoe repot so Us called for dinner; but as he wav up tale the previous night, ho feh too drowsy to come to books; and was marked loro— 85 and costs. RICIIAED SNATl'ItTB sent iu a plea of guilty. What lie was pleading guilty to was a subject of wou dor to all except the Court ond Jonsen. There was a secret session of the Court GEORGE WEAVER was called for, bnt he was weaving his way in some other direction, *nd Hid not oppciw. OEOHOK WASHINGTON once cut his daddy's cherry tree with his little hatchet, and old man George was somewhat wroth wheu ho discovered it. Upon inquiry, the embryo "Father of his country" stepped up, likes little man, and said : “ Father you know I cannot lie Bill Jones cut that trot-." This pleased the old man much, aud he said to little George: “That's right, my son — I'd rather yon would tell ten thousand lies than to cut one < >f those trees;" aud he patted George on the head, while Bill Jones got off free. Not so with oar lat ter day George. He hail not exactly cut liis father's favorite tree, bnt ho had used some very bad language, and altogether liad acted very unbecoming an American citizon of African proclivities, and when asked about it by the Judge ho rather “shucked” the question, and the oaso was pnt off. WALTER BRUCE wns a Scotch nigger, and after having to- kon a nip or two of Scotch whisky, he felt liko McGregor, and had a perfect contempt for white or block—was tread ing his native heath, and would have it out that way, if it cost him a law suit in hell Added to this, Walter was very profane and otherwiso noisy. His Honor was of Sootcli descent himself, and said unto him, "Lochlel, Lochlel, beware of tho day When the low Ian da ihall moot thoe in battle array. For fear the lowlands wouldn’t moet him, the Court ooncluded to tax him for the risk, and Walter went up for ten tal ents of trash. After that, a saddle colored gentleman, calling himself GEO ROE WHITE appeared on the boards. Goorge wasn't white, and all the science of earth could moko nothing of him but what he was. George and the Mayor were both sorry that ho got drunk, and tho latter gentle man felt it so keenly that he let off G. W. with a small fine of 810 and costs. LITTLE MILLICAN was the boy whoso case was continu ed from Saturday. Liko all other boys, when another chap throws at and hits him on the head it is likely to produce a coolness—this is natural for boys, and when Millican returned tbo compliment by phoking his tormentor just a little. HU Honor rather admired him for it, and let him off with jnsl costs enough to pay tho policemen who arrest ed him. Tms was a bi-llt halt, anil w hen Jonsen announced that the show would oloso by acting upon the ease of on individual by that name, all hands felt better. The charge was drunk and disorderly. It seems that a gentle man carried homo a keg of boer on Sat urday evening, and his wifo got glorious before ho did. Like a good and sensi ble man, ho had the ohargea transferred from her account to liis own, paid the fine, nothing more was said about it. AN ALA HA SI A BUY IN IIOCKKRTY. He Ufl* Tiling. One Time too Many. A youth who first gave his name as Brooks, caino to the city about ten days sinoo aud put up at tho Fickcn House. Not satisfied with what was set before him, he began tn indiscriminate attack upon whatever valuables came In his way. The laudlady soon bsw that ho had a severe attack of kleptomania, and applied to Justice Johnson for advico as to what she should do in the premises. The Justice told her to send him np bofore him, and let him work upon him some. Accord ingly Brooks was arrested, and owned np to tho theft of a necklabe, bracelet, ear- bobs and several other articles of jowelry which had boon missing from the house for a week or so past. He was sent to jail, and then he gave hU name as Alex ander, and said his father lived in Ope lika. Tho Judge telegraphed to that place, and received an answer from tho boy's father that lie would he here on Friday last; but not appearing, yonng Brooks, alias Alexander, was bound ovor to appear before Judge Lawrence of the Bistrict Court, and being iinahla to give bail, bo was remanded io jail to await his trial before that Court. aA Uuunir.

Thr Cuufederate Dead at Geltyshuf^. Tho following list of th^ names of the Confederate dead that remain upon the battle-field at Gettysburg haa been fur mailed ns by the Rev. Dr. Wills, of this city, who has recently visited that lo cality, and who went to the trouble of obtaining the liat of names given below, The Doctor informs us that the Legiala-’ turo of Pennsylvania has appropriated $$5,000 for the purpose of removing these remains to Antietum, where there is a handsome cemetery donated by tho State of Maryland as a burial place for those brave men who perished while battling for the South. Though when iu Maryland those re mains will not be in inhospitable soil, would it not bo more seemly were they gathered up and brought home to tho South und deposited in some one of our wiuiy beautiful cemeteries that have been sot apart as perpetual testimonials to the memory of tho Confederate dead ? Their comrades in battle lie here. Here the loving hand of woman can beautify and adorn their graves ; and annually pay a tribute to their memory.
