Peace to his dust. Whom tbe gods lovo die young and drink hard. “Sweetheart, good-bye! the fluttering sail Is spread to waft me far from thee. And soon before the fav’ring gale My ship shall bound upon the sea. Perchance, all desolate and forlorn, These eyes ►hall miss thee many a year. But unforgotten every charm, 1 hough lost to sight, to mem’ry dear.” Thus ►poke, on Monday evening, James Williams to bis wifa Charlotte. The causo of Jim’s behavior was elicited tha following morning when Qneen Charlotte appeared to testify against another woman who had supplanted her in the love and affections of James. She and Jim haJ been together for nine years, and had lived happily, when tbe second queen of his heart appeared upon the scene and over-shadowed Charlotte- and they hitched. It turned out that Jim and Char, lotte had never been legally and conatitntionally mar ried; hence, when her cheeks began to get thin and her teeth to drop oat, he cast about for a better look ing girl, and privately obtained license, and was mar ried according to tbe Georgia code, nude and pro* vided for such cases. When Charlotte heard of this, she had the destroyer of her happiness brought into Court, where she appeared in all her bridal robes. She bad spent her wedding night in the lock up, and Jeems had fled the ranchero. This was a ro mantic beginning of a wedded life, and tho Court dilated eomewhat upon the mutability of married ex istence—its cares and tronblcs and excitement, &c.— and wound up by asking for the faithless Williams. As he could not be found, he lectured the two for quar relling over a trifling nigger, who was flying around over town after women like a cat shot with a hard wad, and fined Charlotte and the Bew wife each ten and costs. This brought tears from Charlotte and huge smiles from her rival, for— “ The bride will love the bending swain. Who holds at his command A htndsome house, a goodly train Of equipage and lauds. But should his fortune cease to smile, Even love away will slouch. Why can’t the creature show a pile Of dollars in his pouch ?” Bui tha Brown was a good-looking nut-brown octo roon, who tai become dissatisfied with her matirnal restraints, and longed to go to the “Alabama” where her lovyer waited to receive her with open arms and loose purse strings. Mrs. Brown could nqt persuade Bertha out of the notion, and, iDdeed, she testified in court that she had no particular objections to Bertha leaving, until she found out that that individual had packed all her be st clothes in a trunk and was fixing to carry them off. She invoked the aid of the police, and had Bert arrested. For yelling and resisting tbe officers, Bertha pays the cost, and an admonition to stay at home. Mr. Young, it he is not the real author of “Too Young to Love,” is too young to know how to refuse a drink when he doesn’t pay for it, was found by the police <^i Marietta street setting on his coat tail, and addressing a street lamp, under tho impression tnat he was in love with it, aud was making a decided im pression. Ha said to it: ^ “Afeared of thi brite ise, that shot Thar glances like a ray, That aims from out the sun’s bright face Upon a cloudless dsy. Afeared of that sweet little mouth, Whence music comes so free. While all the time I think I thort I wish the feller was me.” The “feller” that he alluded to was Mr. James Jones, who was holding on to the cast iron object of his af fections in the anguish of an unappeasable despsir. Both were required to pay the city the usual stipend for judicial treatment. The atmosphere became so dense and close at this stage of the proceedings, that Jonacn thought it best to “go over” till this morning, and several cases were “carried,” and after this announcement was made, the choir stnuck up the Bonnie Bine Conquered Ban. ner and Wearing of the Greenback Bond*, aDd tbe Court adjourned. _ _ ___ W.

U The Chamber of Commerce met at the hall at eight o’clock last evening. President Crane presiding. It being tbe time for the election of officers for tbe pres ent term, the Chamber, on motion,'proceeded to ballot for % president, which resulted in tbe unanimous re- election of Mr. Benjamin E.

Mr. Chamberlin offered a resolution to change the time of meeting to semi-monthly. Instead of monthly. Adopted. On motion of D. Mayer, it was decided to bold the meetings on tbe second and fourth Tuesday evenings of each week. Dr. Hitchcock offered the following: “Resolved, That a committee of lire be appointed to co-operate with a similar committee appointed by the citizens and the Mayor and Council to designate s time for the celebra tion of the Atlanta and Richmond Air Line Railway aud to make the necessary arrangements. The reso lution was adopted, and on motion the President was selected as chairman ol tbe committee, and author ized to appoint the other fonr members. The chair announced, as the remainder of the committee, Messrs. Geo. W. Adair, W. J. Garrett, Anthony Murphy and Amos Fox. The secretary rend out the names of tho members composing the standing committees for the last year, for tbe inform ation of those present. There was a large attendance, and the meeting was in every respect harmonious. Discussions grew out of several of the questions sprung, and were participated in by a number of gen tlemen, several of whom are eloquent speakers.

Tha laat, bnt not leaai tractive part of the programme, waa the distribution of refreshments, which was attended to by tha com. mtttoo assigned for that pur peso in a highly creditable manner. i Musical. Klceptioit.—The Mozart Musical Society gave a reception last evening at their hall, which waa Interesting and wall attended. The music, both vocal and instrumental, was very fine. We will give a full repoct of the exercicse la onr next issue. On yesterday morning, a Herald reporter, after having laid in an ample supply of ebampagno, cigars and other necessaries of life, crawled aboard the 'Herald Special Mail Train,” for the purpose of supervising her initiatory trip to Macon with the Herald maiL 1:39, the time of departure being an nounced, the engineer pulled open her throttle valves snd tot her slide, followed at a respectable distance by the Constitution engine. The reporter, having deposited himself on the soft side of a I03 of wood, commenced taking in the situa tion. At first, the novelty of BEING BOUNCED ABOUT BY THE ENGINE like a rnbber ball, was pleasant, but my partiality e truth forces me to state that this way of being battledoorcd about by the ten- der of the eugine became monotonous and tiresome. Hence this reporter feels that he can chronicle in his register of Indisputable facts, that riding on an engine is pleasing if token homeopathically, but that a dose of one hundred miles is a decided nuisance. I feel melancholy now every time I sit down, to think of it. Nothing transpired to relieve the monotony of travel, save the descent of a gentle rain, which insinuated Itself so gracefully between our shirt and back that we really couldn’t get mal. When we came to Griffin there was found a large placard stretched across the entrance of the depot, with “ Herald ” inscribed thereon, in the hugest of letters. There was nothing else on this canvas. At Forsyth wo met many citizens, among whom we found Mr. Stone, of the Monroe Advertiser, wbo presented the Herald with three bottles of cham pagne, accompanied by the following card: “Compli ments of the Monroe Advertiser to the Atlanta Her- AX.D—tbe pioneer in Southern journalism. Faina semper virat.” Though it was raining at the time, wa found in the Advertiser a notice of our enterprise and a description of “the soft, mellow rays of the sun,” etc. How Stone made such a blunder we cannot di vine, unless it was from the fact that be passed tbe major part of the night in testing wine so as to be certain to present us that of a good quality, and bad mistaken our headlight for the rising run. At Macon we only had time to distribute the mail for the various roads, and to satisfy an appetito whet ted by railroad travel, when oar engineer announced himself ready to return. We hustled on board and started homeward. The return trip was much moi e pleasant. At Coalaparche we were met by Mr. T. E. Walton, who handed us a list of nine daily sub scribers for the Herald, which he drummed up dur ing the day. At Forsyth a gentleman handed us tbe following note from the Mayor and Council of For syth, and a long list of subscribers: To the Editors of the Herald : Gknt9—Mayor and quorum Common Council of Forsyth being absent, the undersigned acknowledges with pleasure the compliments of the Atlanta Daily Herald, and respcctfnlly begs to state that the party who assembled to drink your offering, are unanimous and “firm in the faith” that an enterprise conducted with the shrewdness, tact, sense, energy and dash as the Herald, can never lust. J. M. Ponder, Intendint pro tern. At B&rnesvllle, we received a telegram from the Star aud the News asking 11s to be their guests at dinner. Our leisure moments from that point were spent in dreaming of the good things that awaited us. The realization of the dinner exceded what onr fancy had pictured—and we showed our appreciation by throw ing ourselves around a quart or two of that fluid, which is not generally used at Good Templar meetingse and by eating so much,that our clothes did not fit after wards. The way in which this reporter showed how healthy he was, was both complimentary ancLalarm- ing to Mr. Geo. Byiugton, our host. All along tho line of road our enterprise received the plaudits of tbe people. The trip, if not a pleaiant one, is one that will be long remembered. One thing was patent and apparent, and that was the perfect enthusiasm that prevailed along the line in regard to the Herald. From every village and city came but one voice, and that in exceeding praise of tbo enterprise of the paper, which, from its very in ception, has led its contemporary “up the heights.” We publish a spicy article ou the subject of the special trains, from tho Griffin Star: OREAT EXCITEMENT IN GRIFFIN—THE CONSTITUTION AND HEBALD ENGINES FLASH THROUGH TOWN, BEARING THE MAXL8. At an early hour this morning the quiet of our peaceful little city was disturbed by the unearthly shrieks of the two rival engines from Atlanta, repre senting those two metropolitan journals, the Const! tutlon and Herald. Quite a concourse of our oli logy citizens had con' gregated on the line of the road in the upper end of the town to see the machines come in. The Herald was of course ahead, and presented a forgeoua ap pearance. The engine was decorated with the coloif of all nations—prominent above all others Mas the flag of the Modocs ingeniously arranged .ps a transpa rency athwart the drummond headlight. 6itting up on the cow-catcher, bareheaded, with each particular hair on end, a flame of fire issuing from his nostrils, snd Roman fire-works exploding from xsaqts s—was the illustrious Col. Henry Waxelbaura Grady, whose cry was “Victory or death!” In the engine house, with his hand on the handle of the throttle valve stood the grim-visaged snd heroic Abrams, shouting, Put on more steam!” Among the rubbish between the engine snd the tender, we recognized the youthfu features of the poetic Bill Moore, who was slinging tar, pitch and turpentine into tbe furnace with all his might, and singing “Scots wbo ha’ with Wallace bled.” His noble face was begrimed with soot, and smoke and train oil. bat through it a!l could be discerned the blinding lustre of bis matchless gen ius. Young Grsdy was strapped astride of a huge mor tar on the tender with a lighted torch in his hand, from which mortar the mails were discharged at the various stations. As Bob Alston had gone North to buy a balloon, he wasn’t along, but his life-size por trait was pinioned to the smoke-stack, “snd a lovely picture it was.” Just in the rear of the Herald engine was the Con stitution engine, draped in mourning at the loss of subscribers on the West point road. The tender was loaded with combustibles of every description* includ ing nitre glycerine, on which were seated the mild, gentle Avery, the handsome Whidby, and the-dignified Hemphiil. They all wore quilted garments; and Whidby had a large feather bed strap ped securoly to that portion of his person which usually arrives last at the place of his desti nation. Col. Clark was at the post of danger, of course, whispering a plot to the engineer, who, by the was Billy Mitceell, and just as both engines passed Major Bates’ residence, in the suburbs of town, Mitchell by superhuman effort, jumped his machine on the parallel track of the North Alabama Road, Clark slung a barrel of nitro-glycerine into the fnr- naoe, and tbe Constitution engino darted past the Herald, not, however, withont a shot from Abrams’ fowling-piace, which brought down smoke stock of the Constitution. Tbe latter, however, reached tho depot first, and in its hour of triumph dropped its messen ger with the mall ahead of the Herald. Alas, for hu man hopes! Just as the messenger reached the post offlee the mortar of the Herald was dis charged and the Herald’s mall went tear ing through the back window of tbe post offlee just two seconds shead of the Constitution. Bill Mitchell gave a yell of despair, Hemphill tore off his wig, Clark jerked off bis British whiskers, Whidby fainted, and a can of glycerine blew the gentle Avery’s eye-glasses and all. “over the hills to the poor house.” About this time we heard the Herald’s mortar at Barnesville. This settles the business of “the largest aggregate circulation.” Peneasl Intelligence. Captain J. Thomas Spence and Colonel M. P. Dying- ton, both attorneys from Jonesboro, are in tho city.

EXTRACTS FROM Lard Thief Captured—A negro man was yester day evening arrcBted for stealing lard from one of the cars at the Macon and Western Railroad Depot, in this city.

Finding a Tbeasube in a Kentucky Cave. [Greeneville Independent.]—We learn that a yonDg man by the name of Mullins, while out coon hunting one night last week, chased the coon into a cave near Charles Biven’s farm. Having some curiosity to explore the cave, he went back the next morning and entered. The entrance to the cave was very low, and for some distance ho bad to crawl upon his hands and knees; bat as he ad vanced the openiDg gradually widened until he found himself in a large room with several passages leading from it. He followed one of them for several hundred yards, until his way was obstructed by a well; desiring to find out the depth of the well, he threw some pebbles down,learning in this w ay that it was very shal low. He went back to the opening of the cave and cut a pole some 10 or 12 feet in length, and taking it to the well he put one end of it down, and in that way climbed to the bottom of the well, when he was very much surprised to see another opening. He had followed this for some fifteen or twenty yards, whea his torch went out In groping his way back to the well by feeling along the walls of the pas sage, his hand came in contact with a metal box placed in a small groove in the well. On carrying this box to the light he found it to be made of iron, very much corroded with rust, and having no fastening to it but a hasp. Ou opening the box he found fifty gold dol lars and some small silver pieces, none of them of later dates than 1820. Very much elated with his good fortune, he obtained help, and has been making a thorough search of the cave for more hidden treasures, but up to this time has found nothing else. Can some one tell us who left that box in the cave? At the last meeting of the Itoyal Arch mo- logical Institute, a ‘‘Madonna aud Child,” by Raphael, presented to tho first Earl Harring ton by Philip V. of Spain, was exhibited by the Earl of Harrington. the movement to fobm a new state out of POBTIONS OF KENTUCKY, TENNES SEE AND MISSISSIPPI. A Convention, formed of delegates from portions of North Mississippi, West Tennes see and Western Kentucky, interested in the movement looking to the formation of a new State out of these fractions, assembled at Jackson, Term., on the 20th ulti, and organ ized by the nomination of Major R. B. Hunt, of Tennessee, temporary chairman, and the appointment of a committee of three from each State to report permanent officers for the Convention, after which they adjourned until 2:30 p.m. On reassembling in the af ternoon the committee on permanent organi zation reported the following officers, which was received and adopted: Kenneth Raynor, of Mississippi, President; W. H. Kilpatrick of Mississippi, Milton Brown and Horace M. Polk of Tennessee, John Marlin, Jr., of Ken tucky, Vice-Presidents; W. T. Nosbit and John M. Allen of Mississippi, D. Swisdam, Moses Parish and H. C. Burnet of Tennessee, and J. H. Yancuden of Kentucky, Secreta ries. Hon. Kenneth Raynor introduced himself with appropriate and stirring re marks, evincing much zeal in the enterprise, and predicting success as the reward of indomitable energy, and perseverance. He was followed by .Judge Milton in remarks of much force, and perti nent to tho occasion. A resolution was of fered by J. L. H. Tomlin, of Tennessee, lor the appointment of a Central Committee of fitteen, composed of five from each State, ; with power to appoint sub-committees, pre pare au address, and in other ways manifest the advantages of forming the proposed new State, and amended by Col. M. D. Wisdom, of Tenu., by further investing with power and discretion to memorialize the Legislatures of tho old States and Congress, looking to the proper legislation necessary to the new form ation, which was adopted as offered and amended. Further committees were appoint ed with reference to the government of the present session of the Convention, and other minor details, followed by one offered by Mr. Polk of Tennessee, setting forth the advan tages and fixing the boundaries of the project, all of which were referred ta appropriate com mittees, and will be made the subject of action to morrow. The Convention adjourned until 9 \.m. to-morrow. The representation is largo, and still arriving. Enthusiasm is high, aud the purpose single aud unanimous. The meeting was harmonious.

At the last annual exhibition of the English Royal Academy. Miss Louisa Starr carried off the gold medal for the best historical painting. She is described as a simply attired young la dy, with an interesting face and earnest man ner. The Turner engravings stock has been pur chased for £10,000. It has beeu the inten tion of the owners to destroy the plates after the sale of the pictures, but a high bid was made for them and thus the number of cop ies will be no longer limited to the compara tively small number in existence. The club-handled parasols are vindicating their usefulness. A young lady recently, at Morristown, “laid out” a savage dog with one of these airy trifles in the most effectual manner. NOTICE !
