Dobbins, backer of this city. A large audi ence witnessed the ceremony. We wish the newly wedded pair long life and much happiness. Exciting Scene. Place, Alabama street, small negro boy chaiged with bidding defiance to the “powers that be,” passing down the street at more than ordinary speed pursued by policeman, followed by a youthful band of blacks and whites greatly elated and enthused. The flying boy was overtaken, captured, and will interview ten aud costs this morning. In the case of the Trustees of the Atlanta Medical College va. John B. Wallace, et al. Complainants ob' tained leave to amend their bill, subject to exceptions hereafter. E. H. Holland, guardian, etc., vs Robert Baugh guardian, ad litem.

The jury found the papers Lad existed and were lost, so they will be established. John M. Harwell vs. T. W. Braggerty and John M* Odom, tenants in possession, lu this case Gen. Al fred Austell was made a party defendant on hi s own motion. Sidney Dell for Austell. Frank A. Arnold, Esq., upon showing to the Court that he had been regularly admitted to the bar in Ten nessee, and on taking the usual oath was admitted to the bar. In the case of Guthrie k Co. vs. Holmes Sells de fendant in fl. fa. and Donald McPher, complainant, Judge Hopkins was disqualified and Col. Ed. Broyles was selected to try the case. In this case Sells hsd mortgaged a house and lot, valued at $1,750, to the plaintiff s. Subsequently he had the property set apart as a homestead and after being set apart it was levied on under this mortgage A. fa. After the levy Sella and his wife sold the prop erty to Donald McPher who claimed it. The issue thus between the plaintiff in fl. fa. and the claimant as to whether the property was subject to the mortgage fl. fa. At the trial yesterday morning the claimant or fered an equitable defense setting up that since he bought the property he bad placed permanent im provement* of the value of $4,000 upou it and asking that in the event the jury found the property subject the value of the improvements should be exempted from the decree of the Court. This defense was de murred to by plaintiff ’a counsel on the ground that approvements put upon land pass with the land” and the demurer was sustained. Claimants counsel offered the proceedings of the Ordinary setting the property apart as a homestead in evidence—it was ruled out. The jury found the property subject to the fl. fa. This was a very important case. Gartrell k Jackson for plaintiff’s in fi. fa.. Collier, Myuatt aud Collier for claimants. J. H. Porter vs. W. R.

It is to be hoped that all the old cases may be disposed of before the end of the present term, and this fall nothing but new business be on hand to engage the attention of the Court and juries. A horse broke the singletree of a wage* yesterday while making a " heavy pull ” on one of our bad streets. He immediately jumped a few feet forward, which caused his harness to brook also. This made him mad. and ho commenced fighting the wagon with his heels. The wagon stood this for at least five mln- utos, when It ran one of its shafts throngh tho thick part of his thigh. Tho horse “fit,” and the wagon •• lit,” and the African driver stood by ss judge of the fracas. Finally the wagon whipped, and the horse was declared badly braised. This reporter was sent for, and arriving at the scene of action took a minute survey of the bloody and Loof-t.cddsn grounds and on being asked what he thought of it, be told the crowd that had collected that he would write up a bet ter report of the case than any reporter in tbe United States; and he thought that, with the assistance of a good blacksmith and a wood workman of experience, the wagon could get repaired. Moral—Little horses should not flght big wagons Contribution of Flowers. The children who participate in the Festival this evening, at DeGive’s, are requested to meet promptly at 3 o’clock f. ic.

Newnan, Ga., May 8tli. I scarcely know whether it was tine to this delightful, bouyant spring season, that makes a man’s blood jump through bis veins with such delieions swiftness, or not, but certainly I have never struck a place that so charmed me in its fresh and vigorous strength as the little city of Newuan. All over its limits a spruceness, a jauntiness and a springy activi ty is in fine contrast to most of the dull and plodding towns of old Georgia. Many houses are being bnilt, trade is brisk, the people are hopeful and prosperous, and I shall put down high on my list ot “coming” towns, this live ly Newnnn. WHITESBUEO. I took a flying trip to Whitesburg, the ter- minns of the Savannah, Griffin and North Alabama Railroad. As company, we had Captain Drake, affable and agreeable conduc tor, (Jack White’s right bower) and Doc. Smith, one of the “go-aheads” ot this section, whom everybody knows and likes. Tho road reaching|White8burg and aspiring to Newnan, is a splendidly bnilt and equipped route, and has one of the finest and highest bridges stretching over the Chattahoochee that was ever built, being about 80 feet high. CHOEBINO THE EIVEB. Tbe Shamrock and Magnolia Base Ball Clubs played at tbe Barracks yesterday evening. It was no match game, tbe soore stood: Magnolia 47. Shamrock 24. A match game between these two clubs will come off at the same place at three o'clock to-morrow evening. The Osceola plays this evening at Moore’s University. Hamilton Yancey, Esq. It is with great pleasure that we notioe the rising career of this young lawyer. Although under twen ty-five years of age and only two years in the practice, he enjoys a leading position in the Rome bar—one of the strongest in the State—and has been twice the City Attorney of that prosperous young city He came to this session of the Snpreme Court with three cases, two of which he gained unaided, and the third of which is not yet decided. In his speech upon this lat ter case, supported by an able brief, he won the warm encomiums of his fellow lawyers and the earnest < pliments of at least two of the Judges. Possessed of a fine mind, dauntless industry, good habits and fine address, there are few, if any, of the brilliant coterie of youDg graduates who have received their University Diplomas since the war, who will outstrip him in tbe race of life and fame. The Naughty Moreau. Elder T. M. Harris, of the Christian Church, left Atlanta last night for Sandersville where, this morning will commence, under his supervision, the trial of Will. C. Moreau, for the offenses charged against him by the Indianapolis Sentinel and other papers in Indiana* It is highly probable that Moreau will come out inno cent, as we hear of no prosecutor who will appear against him. The trial creates great interest in and around Saudersville. United States CoiuiuIkmIo art. Reading Hooin Saloon. This establishment is fast becoming a favorite sort. The proprietors ar6 ever alive to the wants of tbe people, and prepared to supp'y them.

C. Hammock, Mayor. Atlanta, May 3, 1673. Dr. Wilin' Address to the Young. Tbe address of Rev. Dr. Wills to the young people of Atlanta will be delivered at the Firat Pre»byterian Church this evening. We advise all to be present and hear the words of truth and sobtrneia. which this eminent servant of the Most High God will utter this occasion. To “know thyself” Is an imperative duty, and to attain this knowledge, it is necessary to hear and Investigate. Grand May Festival To-night. Let all bear in mind the Coronation May Festival to be given to-night under the auspices of the “Rosebud Union” at DeGive’s Opera House and be on hand promptly. Tbe festival promises to be one of the most interesting of the season, and those who at’eud may expect to be delighted. The programme is new but includes many subjects calculated to produce the most intense interest. Mr. T. J. Grant, of Bartow connty, was arrested on a bench warrant and brought before Commissioner W. B. Smith on yesterday, lie is under indictment, charged with bring a Ku-Klux. He was admitted to ball in tbe sum of $1,500, give the bond and Bar- towed. 'Jlty Court. HON. R. J. COWART. JUDGE, PRESIDING. Jack Rogers, a colored boy apparently about twelv years of age, was convicted of larceny from the house. Hu was caught with his hand in the till of Messrs. Bryson k Smith. The jury recommended him to mercy. This recommendation was doubtless due to the earnest aud eloquent effort of B. H. Hill, Jr., In his behalf. Ho was sentenced to pay a fine of $25 and costa or eight months on the public works Shadrack Green, colored, plead guilty te a charge of adultery and fornication, and was sentenced to pay flue ot $5u and costs, or work six months. James M. Hoge, prisoner’s counsel. Tandy Walker, colored, plead not guilty to the same charge. Shadrack was the only witness against him and ha was Impeached by two witnesses and not tained by anybody. Tandy was ably defendeg by Thraaher A Thrasher, but was convicted and sen tenced to pay a fine of $100 and costs or twelve months on the public works. Josephine Peavey, white, plead guilty to the same charge, but haa not yet been sentenced. Colonel W. H. Halsey made au earnest appeal for mercy ii case, especially on account of her innocrut babe. Monroe Elam was tried by the Court and couvicted of larceny from the boose. He was defended by Thomas Findley, Esq , fouud guilty aud sentenced to pay a fine of fifiy dollars and costs or work ten months. F. Com was on trial at tbe hour of adjournment. The charge against him is trespass. This is a contin uation of the everlasting discord between J. J. McNal ly and himself. Wo hope It may at last find an end. Colonel W. H. Halsey for the defendant. Thraaher A Thrasher k Solicitor General Van Epps for the prose- cation. Police Court. RECORDER D. F. HAMMOND. Tbe people who do wrong have really got afraid of the Recorder and Johnson. Only two could be found bold enough to approach the judgment scat yesterday morning. A. H. Simms—said it was so—and pa«d $.» and costs. Charles Austin, the colored gorilla, was up—said ho had not been drunk, but did ask a nun to pay his board bill. His Honor keeps boarders some times, Charles got off with the coats. New KaterprUs. We have seen the April number, which it also the first lsssue, of a small sheet neatly printed called the “Western Atlantic Beilway Gazette” published for the pnasaofsr department of the Western and Atlantic Railroad Company. It is published by Barrow tbe printer, while Capt. J. 8. Peterson Is the advertising agent. The Editor s name does not appear. Who is Here's Your Mule. We refer to the oae the! the Honorable G. T. Dodd mounted on Whitehall street at 3 o'clock yesterday evening. and attempt- •J to ride. Hie muleehip wee dieinclined and proceed ed to rid hi so self of bis harden, and threw Mr. Dodd on the street, in a manner exhibiting skill in the bual* nees. The occurrence did not disturb the equanimity of the alderman to say considerable extent, ibough it wMinded his feelings. We exceedingly regret tbe freak of the mole, and are glad that no serious injury ensued from It. That male needs a lecture from our Recorder Let him have it. Professional Jurors. To the Editors of the Herald: Excuse me for calling the attention of the outside public to the sickly sights thet are Been every Monday morning, during the sitting of Fulton Superior Court. Htout, able-bodied men, who are tco lazy to pursue an honest avocation, can bo seen electioneering with the different Sheriffs to secure tho much-coveted sit uation of jurors, at a salary of $2 per day. Gentlemen of undoubted veracity, have frequently expressed their belief that a jury would “hang” on until dinner time, for the purpose of getting their dinner at the expense of the county, and before tho Honorable Judge retired from tbe court room, a certain venera ble juror would demand “coffee in hia'n.” Hew long will this tad state of affairs exist ? The Sheriffs nave resolved to “clean them out,” but it ssems, from the display made lately, that they will have to provide themselves with a pair of brass knucks and a alung-ahot each. We will take occasion to post you further on this subject if the evil is not speedily abated. A Disgusted Btstandf.r. Flat Defaulters. The city street chain gang, consisting of four ne groes, three able bodied men and one email boy, were at work under the direction of Policeman Owens, on Slabs me street. In front of the Herald office. Howard Horton, the notorious negro politician of Atlanta, is among the force contributing the exercise of his phys ical frame to the city. He was convicted before His Honor Recorder Hammond, a few days since of selling ardent spirits a* retail on the Sebbeth day without licence from the Mayer and Connell, and being minus th* swm of $M 00 which wee aeseseed against him, he was placod at work en tbe streets. Let him re member thet a mans political prominence does not make him superior to the law and the laws domain. Why Is tMts Thai 1 On Wednesday mor ning last, as Mr. W. A. King, an employee of the Western and Atlantic Railroad Com pany, was wending his way homeward at about two o'clock in the morning, when ascending the hill the wseism aide of the Macon bridge, was approached by * men from behind a tree in a mysterious men Tbe nun refused to answer when accosted, and Mr. King—who, by tho way, le a clever gentleman—sud denly remembered certain business engagements that required hie etlsotlou and left the scene in e rapid pace, betog afcnoet frightened out of hie wits by the extraordinary conduct of the man “ behind the tree.” Why thia poatteon wee taken by the man, and why he refuted to explain himself, le accounted for by Mr. Xing on tbe ground that hie object wae mischief. While whizzing across the Chattahoochee bridge, we were signalled by an artist who was photographing the wild and romantic scenery in the vicinity, and Capfc. Drake blew down brake, and allowed the artist to take a picture of the train standing over the river. A prominent feature of this magnificent photo graph was Doc. Smith standing on the edge of the bridge with the Herald unfurled to tho breeze. These pictures will be on sale at the principal news depots of the South in a few days. Doc’s autograph will be given to every one taking half a dozen copies of the picture. Whitesburg is a flourishing village named in honor of Captain Jack White, President of the road, and although not yet out oi its swaddling clothes, has fifteen or twenty stores, run by live and energetic men, nice churches and all the necessary adjuncts, in cluding a regular number one hotel. Near the village is a fine granite querry capable of infinite development, a superb mineral spring of Chalybeate properties, and for this would make a fine summer resort. CAPTAIN JIM M’COOL. If we were asked who was the best conduc tor that ever pulled a bell-rope we should at once name Jim McCool. Affable to any de gree, plucky as a little tiger, always jolly, it is a real pleasure to travel with him. We once saw him cut loose his train from a drun ken Engineer, refuse to turn a wheel till he left the Engine again when ho was “running behind ” we saw him go into the woodpile, in one minute throw on more wood to his hungry engine than all the other hands put together. He’s a regular “hummer.” That’s just what he is ! Jellby. Baltimore, May 8. 1873.

The “Rainbow” and ‘‘Mountaiu City” Fire Compa nies and the citizen “Hook and Lader Company,” of Rome, will reach this city on Saturdsy night enroute for Augusta to attend tbe grand May parade and spend Sunday in Atlanta, leav- Sunday night for the field ol festivities. These companies are composed of the best gentlemen in Rome and a finer set of men cannot be found in forty States. Their bright uniforms snd handsome faces will sparkle right pleasantly in the Atlanta churches and on her promenades. We trust that their visit will be pleasant. Who Struck Farrow ? The momentous question of “Who struck Billy Patterson?” pales in significance and im portance before the thrilling conundrum “Who struck Potash Farrow?” The eminent Federal Attorney states he was viciously as saulted whilst pensively prancing on his homeward way down President street on Sat urday night about 8 o’clock. No damage was done, and the foul fiend, after failing iu his purpose, vanished ia the air. No one save the 'stalwart attorney, caught a glimpse of the would-be-assassin; although several per sons promptly responded to his thrilling cry for tbe “perlice !” yet no retreating form was seen in the distance. This was strange, and the spectators were at a loss to imagine whore the assaulter had fled. Farrow had on his long-sighted specs, and this may account for his seeing so much more and farther than any one else. Tho matter remains enveloped in mystery, and to the solemn inquiries of “Who struck Billy Patterson?” and “Who killed Cock Robin ?” which have been wont to perplex the juvenile mind from time imme morial, will now bo added the mysterious one of “Who struck Potash Farrow V” Seriously, we have made every inquiry re garding this affair, and can discover nothing at all satisfactory from the various conflicting repoits current concerning it. If the assault was made at all, we can only look upon it as an unpremeditated affair, tbe impulse of the moment, and no one can believe that such an attack was designed or encouraged by those who give tone to our community. Whilst the District Attorney lias made himself rather odious by his evident desire to oppress and persecute onr people, tho simple fact that he and others of like ilk have walked the streets unmolested, at times and in quarters where tho conditions would have been more favora ble to the accomplishment of such a purpose, is the best evidence that this alleged assault was not committed by any of our own white population.—Sav.

To-morrow is tbe anniversary of tbe death of Stone wall Jackson. Who does not remember tbe poignant grief with which a young and struggling nstiou re ceived the news of hts death in 1863. This day has also been set apart for the decoration of the graves of the Confederate dead burled in the Cemetery at At lanta. Many of these are tbe fathers, brothers, hus bands and sons of people living In our midst, while vary many of tbe head boards bear the word Unknown. These men died in defense of a cause, lost now it is true, second to none for which man ever died in honor and in glory. They felt as we felt that they were fighting for human rights. Shall we on to-morrow neglect to offer them onr annual floral tribute. If so, we will demonstrate to onr people and to the world, that these dead braves are not only unknown, bat that their memorise are unhonored by those for whom they died. Lot ns not suffer this to be the case. Barely we can all afford to devote one day In th# year to beautifying their graves all over our Southern land. General Gartington. a brave soldi#r and accomplished scholar, will deliver the sddreas on the occasion. This alone will be worth the Urns necessary to visit the cemetery sad participate in the exercises of the day. In this coonsetion, we suggest to Urn Ctty Oou*. all that at their meeting to-night, they request busi ness men to close their house* and take their tauUiss out on the occasion. Assessment of Real Ratals. The assessors selected by tbs Oily Council are now engaged 00 the Seventh Ward, and will terminate their work of assessing to-morrow. It is no small job to pass upon the value st real estate of Atlanta, occupy* ing as it dost, rush an Immense space of territory. Franco-German Relations—An Interchange of Civilities. General Von Manteulfel, commanding the German troops in the occupied departments of France, gave a dinner on the 15th ulh, at Nancy, in honor of M. Thiers, whose seven- ty-»ixtb birthday it was. According to an account in the Debate, the gaests were sixty in number, and included tbe generals and staff officers of the German army, the French officials of the town, and others, who had been specially invited. After dinner, Gen. Von Manteuffel proposed a toaat in the fol lowing terms: "If I could speak French I wonld make a speech, but as I cannot do so, I will only mention the name of the great citi zen whose health I wish to propose: bat his name alone says more than a long speech ronld telL 1 drink to the health of H. Thiers.” M. de Saint Vallier, the Frcnoh representative at the Gorman headqaarters, replied thus: “I thank General Von Maa- teuffel for tho motive which led him to in vite ns here and propone this toast to onr illustrious President. I thank him in the name of M. Thiers, and in the name of all present, for the words ho h«e just spoken. I beg yott te join with me in drinking to the health of the General-in-Chief, who, daring nearly two years that be has commanded mllvery, M«y here, has known how to convert tho task ' which he had to fulfill—one difficalt for him and painful for ns—into a mission of pacifi cation and conciliation. Let ns drink to the health of General von Manteuffel, and may we retain the recollection of tbe noble quali ties which he has displayed i* all his actions —justioe, moderation, impartiality." M. Jouseenderot, tbe Prefect of fee Maras, ax- pressed, on behalf of the now evacuated de partments, the sentiments of gratitude whioh the inhabitants entertained towards Ges. Von Manteuffel for his moderation daring two years of a melancholy crisis. M. Bernard, the Mayor of Nancy, and M. Doniol, prefect of the Meorthe et Moselle, spoke to a similar effect, and also thanked M. de Haint Vallier for tbe successful efforts be had mads during the past two years to render the oonssqusnoes of the war less grievous to the occupied de partments.

Announcement for 1873# Established only in August o last year, he Atlanta Herald has, in five short months, risen to the front rank of Georgia journalism, and has obtained a circulation which has not any precedent in the history of Southern newspapers. When first issued, the proprietors declared jtheir parpose to make the Hf.rald a bold, outspoken paper, independent of all political parties, cliques and rings aDd devoted solely to the interests of the masses, without regard to class or station. The condition of politi cal parties in the South was such, that un der no circumstances could the Herald give its support to Radicalism; hence, it has in variably advocated the election ot Democrats to office, such advocacy being based upon the capacity of candidates. The Herald, there fore, has assumed the position of an inde pendent Democratic newspaper, and will con tinue to hold it, so long as the Democracy remain the political party which serves the people with more honesty and ability than any other party in the State. Nevertheless, the Herald will continue, in the future, aa in the past, to criticise men and measures, without regard to political prejudices and affiliations, condemning everything its pro prietors believe injurious to the interests of Georgia, and praising and supporting all that they believe likely to promote the pros perity of the State and the happiness of her people. As a neiespaper y the Herald is already ad mitted to be without a rival in Georgia. Events transpire with such rapidity that every per son who desires to keep pace with the times, must have a live daily or weekly paper. Our columns will be found to give the very latest news on every subject Whatever of inter est occurs in any part of the world is made known to our readers, and all the various top ics of the day are discussed intelligently and without bias. Never before in the history of the world was it more necessary for every person who can read to subscribe for a newspaper. The struggle between centralism and Constitu tional Democratic Government is entering upon a new phase. Gigantic railroad and bond rings at tho North control and direct the legislation of Congress, and as their in terest can only be advanced by the existence ot a strong, centralized government, they are passing laws, one by one, whose ultimate de sign is to reduce the States to tbe con dition of mere provinces. Encroachments more radical and startling than ever have been made on the rights of the peophe The South has been converted into a second Ire land: her governments overturned by the mandate of a petty judge, backed by federal bayonets ; her people plundered by foreign adventurers and native scoundrels, and her libei ties crushed out with a ruthlessness which has not any parallel save in Poland, Ireland, and Hungary. To day the men who struggled through six years of bloody warfare, and the children of the martyrs to the cause of South- era Independence are political slaves, and what their future is to be, remains shrouded in impenetrable darkness. Meantime, the terrible corruptions of the party in power, as proven by the Credit Mobilier expositions, implicating tbe outgoing and incoming Vice Presidents, together with a large number of the most prominent leaders of tho Radicals, are undermining the very foundation of Dem ocratic institutions, and paving the way for empire. While in the United States there is much of mournful interest to attract the reader of cotemporary history, abroad the drama is equally exciting and important. France is still kept unquiet by the violence of political factions; iu Great Britain the masses are moving towards Democracy; in Germany the Church question has assumed formidable proportions; in Italy the situation increases in interest, while in Spain there are evidences that the revolution which placed Amadeus on the throne is not yet ended. Everywhere, in short, do we daily witness new and startling occurrences, the regular and faithful record of which makes tho Herald a perfect history of the world. With a large corps of competent and ex perienced editors, correspondents and repor ters, and with arrangements concluded or making for letters from all parts of the world we can promise to the reading public a paper which will, in every respect, satisfy their de sires. Literature, science, the arts, will all receive attention.
