’ * .. THE PEAK FAMiIY.
From a card in our paper to-day, it will
be seen that the musical entertainments of
the Peak Family, may be witnessed and
heard, ‘on Friday and Saturday Even
ings next,at Crisp’s Atheneum. This fam
ily consists of vocalists and Germanian Bell
Ringers, whose performances in all our prin
cipal cities, have drawn large houses, and
elicited the warmest applause’ We hope
they will have no reason to complain of
their visit to our city.
THE EXAMINER-ADVICE.
We have been advised that somefastid.
ious persons, very much troubled about
the tone of our paper, have undertaken to
tender advice, through others, to us. Now
listen, meddlers, while wo speak I We
never receive advice from selfish parties;
when we conclude to do so, they shall be
duly advised thereof; but until then, so
far as we arc concerned, they would do t
well to mind their own business.
As long as we have control of this paper,
it shall be the organ of no man, clique, or
politician. Tt shall represent the views (7
“Young America,” and the “Young Dem
ocracy” thereof, as far as it is, in ouropin
ion, proper to do so. When wedeviate from
the path of democratic rectitude, wo shall
then be in proper condition for advice >
but until then let no man dare to prescribe
a course of action for us I To the fair and
legitimate nominations of the Democratic
party, we shall submit, and fight for them
to the hilt, provided the nominees are
good and true democrats. This it our
position I We, therefore, want it distinct
ly known, that among true democrats we
know no political distinction, and shall
pander to the caprices, predilections, or
ambition of no man.
We are a democrat by nature. In our
youth, we embraced the principles of the
democracy, and in our maturity, we stand
by them, convinced that their ascendancy
the councils of the nation, can alone
perpetuate our Government.
We hope we are now understood. Our
opinion of advice is, that it is too common i
a commodity. We rarely ever take it. ‘
From our sanctum, particularly, it is ex-,
eluded. We would not give “peiotrr coin* • I
for it. At all times, we shall be glad to
■co and convene with friends at our office-1
They shall ever be welcome; but leave no
advice. It is dead capital when here; we
cannot even get a circulation for it in Chi
cago; consequently, it must be bad our

K WORO TO OUR BUSINESS MEM-BANKING FA
CILITIES.
We went more Banks in Atlanta. The ’
* trade of Atlanta will amount to about a '
million of dollars or more, and as all com-
L* mer i '.l towns have Banking facilities, we
should have them here. We ap|>eul to
i our merchants and others to set about the
work. Let us get up a good and large
Southern Bank for Atlanta. I*ct its stock
be owned by Georgians and Carolinians,
and then, the merchant can purchase pro*
ducc, or merchandise, wbeie he pleases
with its issues. . There is ample capital
? in Atlanta to create a Bank worth half a
million among us, and an Institution of
that kind would be of some benelit to us.
It is useless for us to stand idle longer
about this matter. Then let us begin the
work, and it will soon be finished. There |
are many cogent reason.-* we could urge in
defence of thia move, but wo forbear for
the present, with the remark, that, in
; some future articles now in process of ar
rangement by « distinguished gentleman
r of Georgia, the question will be fully,
made to bear, in the meantime. let ns
not delay, lot us act.

THAT WHITE PONEY.
We see that our neighbor of the “Re
publican” is disposed to make capital out
Os the “Pony” we rode on the day of the
election, and upon which, one Patterson,
(not the renowned Billy) rode behind us.
Well, we did find Patterson at our store,
and we did, on the back of that same
pony, convey him to the polls. There he
was duly challenged, sworn by the mana
gers. and his vote recieved. This was aB
we did with that same Patterson, from
first to last. If he had previously voted,
the managers surely would have known it-
That we knew it, is false, let the assertion
come from where it may. Nor, although
it is asserted that he voted twice, do we be
lieve he did. To ascertain this, we have
not taken, we ean assure the “Republi
can,” any trouble, nor shall we do so. —
That the “Know Nothings,” their chal
lengers, and the managers of the election,
should all be ignorant of his previous, or
subsequent vote, is truly a matter of won
der. It is due, therefore, to us that the
I “Republican” prove its charge. Will it
do so?
But more. Will the “Republican” tel)
how many votes were polled on the side of
the Ignorant Order, from Carroll and the
surrounding country, apart from those who
were under age. Rumor says, for which
we cannot vouch, that a darkle or so, in
blood at least, voted the Know-Nothing
ticket. Is this privilege derived from the
law, or from the Order, whose policy North
has been to encourage negro associations
of “ Know-Nothings?”
We thought we had said enough of the
“XA hite Poney,” in the first notice we
took of it. This is our second. We hope
it will be the last.
THE BANKS OF SAVANNAH.
Amid all the speculations of the times,
and changes of fortune incident to the late,
and present monied crisis, the Banks of
Savannah have stood firm and undaunt
ed. It is true they have furnished no
facilities of importance to the business of
interior and north-western Georgia, but
we presume they were placed in the same
category, the Augusta Constitutionalist
said, the Augusta Banks were placed, by
the financial war so long waging among
. monied institutions, brokers, and capital
, ists. We feel a deep interest in the pros*
perity of Savannah, and her Banks, and
hope the latter will soon avail themselves
iof the opportunity presented, to establish
I one or more agencies, or a branch in our
I city. The business of the place, and oM
famNeM men, will amply sustain such an
enterprise. No place in the interior of
our State, offers greater inducements for
, good banking agencies, where a safe and
1 profitable business can be done than At
lanta does. Will not Savannah profit by
i these remarks?
I MARK JOHNSON. ESQ.
From the Central Georgian, we extract
the following notice of the gentleman whose
name appears above We take pleasure
iu assuring our cotemporary that Atlanta
duly appreciates the acquisition, as one
her citizens, of Mr. Johnson. Both as a
Journalibt, and Lawyer, his reputation
i had long preceded his advent here, and it
| gratifies us to say that he has been received j
with a generous welcome into our young, J
but prosperous and rising city:
M e note among the changes of the sea
i sum the removal of our esteemed friend 1
Mark Johnson, Esq., from this to
Atlanta. Formerly attached to the Edito
rial Corps of the State, he has more re
cently determined to devote himself ex
clusively to the profession of the law. Mr.
Johnson will prove an acquisition to the
Bar of Atlanta, while the citizens of this
place will feel generally that they have
a loss in his removal
THE FOURTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT.
A friend writes us to know what wc
think us a convention in this district, to
nominate a candidate for Congress.
Conventions, tairly gotten up, iu our
| Opinion, are the only modes, of keeping up
J party organization, and settling political
i wnflietious aud so far as our Congression-
I al district is concerned, we approve the
, holding of one But it is time enough yet'
I to talk about the nomination, the nominee,
I Ac. Before the nomination takes place,
we shall have much to say on the subject
: particularly in reference to rotation in office.
Until then, we deem it proper to keep our
columns free from allusion to it, while the
1 democracy of the district, and particularly i
' the young democracy, talk freely among j
I themweke* about it.
THE LNTELLIGENCER-THE LAST WORD.
A last word with the Intelligencer.—
i Patience exansted we shall “stand by onr

| a delegate from the informal regions to
vote him a place of rest. We intend to
hire no intercourse with his sataniemajes.
I ty, sud onisequently can be of no service
’to his perturbed spirit. As to the Intelli
gencer, in referenenee totbisrecentcontro

MONS, BIHAN THE GIANT.
We paid a visit to this gentleman, on
Saturday afterno m last, at Hayden's Hall
where, for the two days he spent in our
City, he was visited by a large number of
our citizens.
We found him an educated and accom
plished gentleman, in the full vigor of
manhood, 7 feet 81 inches high, and weighs
about 400 pounds. Extremely affable in
his manners,Jand dignified witball, he com
mands, at once, your esteem and respect.
Fond of Children, he soon draws them to
him by his attentions. We did not enquire
whether he was a married ’gentleman, or
not, but in either event, it should appear
upon the bills, for his mauly appearance
was attractive, we thought, to more than
one gay belle aud charming widow, who
honored him with a call.
Aside, however, from jest, Mr. Bihin is
a remarkable man, ever inch of him. In
fine health; of extraordinary muscle
not fat, but large and firm in flesh;
he is one of nature's wonders. We
regret that be leaves here so soon. A
more intimate acquaintance we should like
to cultivate. We commend him, however
to the Citizens of Montgomery for which
place he left our city on yesterday.
Some man, over the signature of “ Dem
ocrat,” calls us the “ sapient Editor of the
Examiner- ’ The opportunity is not pre
sented to us, to say the same of him, or
his article. We respond to no anonymous
writer —hence the Intelligencer and its
correspondent may save a little wadding
by not opening their mouths again.
J&~Some years since two preachers
were sent to a circuit in the South Caro
lina Conference, while it embraced the
State of Georgia, one an old man and the
other young and unexperienced in the in
erancy. He had, however, enjoyed
better advantages than the old one, and
was withal somewhat of a humorist. The
old gentleman concluding that it would be
best for the young preacher to accompany
him the first round, to learn the habits of
the people, the ups and downs of his new
calling, and perhaps get some insight into
the true methoe of preaching the gospel.
Having no great resources and less energy
and being on a circuit all his life, he had
contracted the miserable habit of fixing up
a sermon to preach at every church dur
ing a single round. Accordingly at the
first place they come to, he read out his
text from Mat. viii. 14, 15, which details
the wickedness and cure of Peter’s wife’s
mother. His sermon was very passable,
but at every church the same tiresome
routine about “Peter’s wife’s mother be
ing laid and sick of a fever,” greeting the
ear of the unfortunate young minister,
until he became restless if not indignant,
at the repetition of the dose. At length
they approached the village and the dis
tant tolling of the church bell upon their
ears, announced the mournful fact that a
funeral was about to transpire. “Ah, said
the old gentleman, drawing a deep sigh,
some one is dead, I wonder who it can
be.” “I dont know,” said the young
preacher, very unsophistically, “unless it
be Peter’s wife’s mother, for she has been
sick long enough.” The old Foggy was
mum, for it knocked him out of a sermon
for the next day (being Sabbath,) and he
had to set to worn and construct another
for the occasion. Young America was
too hard for him.
THE FIRST CRIMINAL ARREST-
In December the first criminal under'
the extradition of this country with
France was arrested in Paris. We learn 1
from the correspondent of the New York
Commercial Advertiser that his name is
Ainsley. He was accused of drawing'
814,000 from a New Orleans bank on a ,
forged check. With this sum he fled to
Europe He had speut most of the
money at the Baths of Germany, in gam
bling and debauchery before arriving at
Paris. Twenty-four hours after his arri
val there, the police found him, although
passing under a false namol The Cotn
missiary of Police of the section of the
opera, entered the room of Ainsley in the
Rue de Choiseuil, and found him iu com
pany with a French girl. He asked Aius
leyhis name. Ainsley replied “They call
me Dupont.’’ He asked for his passport;
it felso bore the name of Dupont. The
Commissionnry turned to the girl and
asked her name: “Louise Dupont,’ was
the reply. The Commissary then said to
Ainsley, “It may be the custom in your
country when a man marries to take the
name of Iris who, but in this <• tn:ry u i>
the reverse; your name is Ainsley, end I
arrest you for forgery.” He was taken
to the Conciergerie, and the same evening
confessed his identiy. But six or seven
hundred francs remained in his possession
all the rest of the money having been
spent in high living.
The writer thinks that there is nothing
so extraordinary in its skill as the Paris'
police.—A". O. Delta.
A Russian Winter.—The Yew York
Mirrior says: “It snuies Russians day aud
night iu the Crimea.”
So it would seem if take the amount of

A new railroad is being construct
ed between Philadelphia and Baltimore, ■
which will reduce the time of travel from j
one to two hours. It will cross the Su-i
squehanna by a bridge acre; al miles above

HOW THEY DO THINGS JN FRANCE.
The following anecdote, which we trans-'
late from the Paris correspondence of the
Courier des Etafs Unis, besides being
amusing, suggests a contrast by which it
would be well if we could profit:
After a recent accident on a railroad
near Paris, the Directors took immediate
measures to compensate those who had
suffered in the affair, although the road
was not in the least to blame in the mat
ter, aud it was one of those occurrences
which no prudence can avoid. The trav- ■
elers had been taken to their destination
with the greatest despatch in good carri- j
ages; the wounded and bruised had re- (
ceived all imaginable attention, and a
compensation in money was made at once i
to all who demanded it, without any dis-■
pute as to their claims.
The Directors thought they had arrang-1
ed every thing, when a gentleman of re-1
spcctable position in the Parisian world; J
a man of note and wealth, whose name is
well-known, presented himself at the office
of the company, and addresseng himself
to the clerk whose business it was to at-'
tend to such claims, said, with a smile, and
in an easy kind way : “Sir, I was in the
cars at the time of the accident.”
“ Ah, jou were in the cars ?”
“ 1 was, sir; here is my ticket.”
“ And you have come to claim damages?’
“ Os course I have.”
“ You are wounded ?”
“ Not at all ”
“ Bruised?”
“ Not in the least, thank God?’
“Then what claims ha\e you on the |
company ?”
“ The fact is, I was neither wounded
nor bruised ; but 1 was compelled to stand
in the open air for a whole hour during
a very cold night, while they put things
to rights, and I caught cold—a very se
vere cold,” (coughs.)
“ I see; and you claim damages for your
cold?”
“Yes, sir,”
“Very good- What do you charge for
your cold? . t
“Well, I think forty francs would Le
none too much.”
“Agreed—forty francs. Is that all?”
“No; my spectacles were broken in
my pocket by the shock; they cost me
eighteen francs it is fair that you should
pay that.”
“ Very well Forty and eighteen make
fifty-eight ”
“ Excuse me.”
“ Is there any thing else ?”
Yes. When 1 came to Paris I was
naturally anxious to set my friends at
ease about my safety. I took a cab, which
I kept about seven hours—l have a large
circle of friends —at two francs an hour.
“ That is fourteen francs; fourteen and
fifty-eight are seventy-two- Is that all ?”
“That’s all.”
The cashier counted out the seventy-two
francs; the gentleman took the money, i
gave a receipt, and departed perfectly sat
isfied.
Tur French on the Maine Liquor
Law.—The N. Y. “Courier des Eteris
Unis” has a scathing and able review of
the New York Liquor Bill. Attack a
Frenchman’s eau devie, and you arouse all
his genius for a retort and reply.
Our German friends are nut less .indig
nant about their lager beer. The “ Zeit
ung” gives the bill a volley.
To do justice to the French, Germans
and Italians, they do not, in their own
lands, get beastly drunk, as the English,
Irish, and as the Americans do. We poi-1
son them, to be sure, when they come h. re,
with our chemical compounds, called
“ rum.” &c., but in their own homes they _
drink with prudence and reserve, and are,
in the main a very temperate people. S
avannah Republican.
Elopement.—The wife of a respecta
ble and wealthy merchant of New York
recently eloped with a southerner. She
left a letter behind intended to make the
impression that she had committed sui
cide.
