The number of little boys, between the ages of ten and sixteen years, who daily frequent the Recorder’s Court has grown to be a subject of remark. They go early, and occupy the most prominent seats, and ea gerly gather in all the rascality and obscenity which is daily exposed there.

Mrs. Jor dan resides in Atlanta, Ga., and as her identity can hardly be disputed, wo think it not improper to atate that the object of Mr. Kieser’s inquiries was to inform her of tho fact that a huge sum of money had been bequeathed her infant child by a relative in the State of Missouri. We do not know what the amount ia* bnt have been informed that it probably approximates ten thousand dollars. This little incident illustrates one of the many benefits of advertising. W. H.

It was a gratifying feature taat the guest* were composed of tho very boat and cleverest people of town. It waa a great improvement on last Thursday evening. Tbo hall was just comfortably filled, and every one felt at home and easy. While the costumes of some of tho ladies was a little "extensive,” yet it is the understanding that all to appear in every day parlor suits. As has been stated, these hops are gotten up solely for recreation and pastime, and are not considered dress balls. The company last night was all that any one conld desire or pleasure, and the old-fashioned “Lancers,” White Creek Reel,” and other homo amusements were in order. The Concert fob the Benefit of 8t. Luke’s Chudch.—All lovers of good music will remember that the concert for the benefit of St. Luke's Church will be given by Mrs. E. L.

Tho house was situ ated near the RolliDg Mill, and was entirely consum ed, though the engines were promptly out but failed to reach the scene in timo. We did not ascertain whether it was covered by insurance. London, Evening, August 14, 1878. Turpentine 32s. 3d. London, 3:10 p.m., August 14.

Mri. Henry K. CtirielUn bu written to Captain Johnson, of the Police, a yery bandaom letter, compli menting oflicere. Johneon and Weaver, of the force, for their prompt and liberal action on the night the barglare broke into her room. Theeo gentlemen are capital officers, and partlea Hying In their "beat" may sleep in peace and safety. The most economical trap and at the | 1D|| time the most efficient for mice, is on exhibition at the Reading Room on Marietta street. In tho day time it serves as a fly trap, and at night it la baited and uaed for mice. Flatty Harris says it is unnecessary to let out the flies which are caught during tbs day, b<cause they will serve as an allurement for the mice at night. The weather cleared off yesterday and the clear, bright snn shown out in perfect glory. A stiff breeze prevailed all day, which rendered it very much like fall of the year. Tickets for the next grand drawing of the Kentncky Library Association, have been received by Redwine lc Fox. Whole tickets, this time, are $50—which lets ns ont. The grand prize, however, is $250,000. We are not acquainted with any man in this neighborhood that would know what to do with that amount of cash, provided he drew it. The afternoon being fine, fhe usual amount o\ healthy babies were out on the streets yesterday. Since the session of the Grand Lodge of Odd Fel lows has been on hand, our streets have presented an unusually lively and stirring appearance. The sales at the Live Auction House are immense and the bargains daily offered there are unexcelled. Mr. Walter Withers, the Superintendent of Wenona Temple, was quite successful yesterday in taking contributions to aid in tte proper reception and en. tertainment of delegates to the Convention to meet in this city on the 27ib last. Mr. W. thinks to-morrow he will secure enough to ensure the'affair being a per fect soccer*. Let all respond to this call for so worthy •nob>-t. “The sun goes down—night gathers fast And shrouds the earth from view; And yet the darkness cannot last. For morning comes anew. When gayly up the eastern sky Aurora speeds her way, The rosy dawn, ascending high, Soon brightens into day.” When the rosy dawn of Thursday morning waa brightning into day, the police fennd Mr. William Camp trying to “camp awhile in the wilderness” of the jungles of Decatur street, under the Influence of soporifics. He made an absurd effort to de-camp, bnt the guards closed the eamp-aign. A foul allusion to a lady wss the gravest effense alleged. There are quite a number of these graceless “bummers” in de cent thoroughfares, who frequently shock the refined ear with their disgusting blasphemies. We suppose there are few citizens who, while walking with ladies through the streets, have not felt their cheeks to burn at the expressions loudly echoed forth from the beast ial lips of bar-room swaggerers, and felt a titilating sensation in the toe of the foot to elevate some of the contemptible blackguards. B. Moore, from his conduct and general behavior might be considered by the casual observer as a blood relation to “Ah Sin,” was np for failing to abate a aance >1 the celebrated Willingham building. The sewer pipe had gotten out of order, and the police had notified R., which, it appears, failed to take notice. He came into Conrt with all the airs and self-import ance of the King of Dahomey, and told Joust “perceed.” The evidence went to show that the era of the property were to blame this time, and Ah got off gratuitously. John Reagan, who is no earthly relation to the late Postmaster-General of the C. S. A., bnt the pampered minion of the bloated aristocracy of Jenningstown, picked np very drunk in the streets, and bronght in on a shutter, to the music ol the following “stave,” which he sang himself to the air of “Maryland, my Maryland:” “I'll never see the any more— Whisky sling, Oh, whisky sling. I’ve drunk thee now for years, a score. Whisky sling, my whisky sling; And to be parted now I’m sure. Although we’ve parted twice before, Doth sting me to the very core. Whisky 8 ing, lost whisky sling.” He paid ten slings and made way for Wm. Cain, who it must be understood, is not the individual who slew Abel, but rather the individual who “got slewed.” He made a donation of ten dollars to keep down the excitement, and retired. A. Chisolnm, invested what he bad left after paying his week’s board, in a quart of knock-em-atiff, and re paired to tho suburbs to enjoy his purchase. He suc ceeded in geitiog up a first-class melo-dramatic drunk, and was arrestel. He has been on the docket for sev eral days, but was never ready for trial. The hospital attendants hal concluded that he waa trying to “chiz- zle-em” ont of what was due outraged municipal jus tice, and brought him up whether or no, yesterday. A. C. plead guilty without patting on any airs, and he gets off by paying ten and costs. John Brown, whose soul is still supposed to be marching a’ong, appeared in propria ptrtonce before the Court, on a charge of inciting a small Harper’, Ferry revolt among the contented sovereigns of Frog town. Failing in this, he threw himself, with all the ardnousnc88 of his nature, entside of a pint of old Jamaica rum, and sat down and waited for events, conscious of the curious gaze of the passing traveler, and unmindful of the affectionate tickle of the buzzing insects who sported about his Grecian noae, and con soling himself poetically, that if his sleep shall be perpetual, he will— “Leave his children, when he dies. The richest cabinet of flies.” The officer concluded that Brown was treating him self unjustly, and persuaded him to come to judg ment. He went down for a few days, and will have time to pick his flint and come again for another raid. Mollie Jones, an illustrious female poetess of Sher- mantown, now engaged in writing metrical biogra phies of the symmetrical heroines of that neighbor hood, for the literary newspapers of Covington, was up on a charge of unpremeditated drunk. Mollie made no denial whatever, bnt acknowledged the corn with a meekness worthy of a better cause. The only testimony was that of the gallaut guard, who said: Personal Intelligence. Dr. Keaton, wife and daughter, of Dallas, Texas, are stopping in the city at a private boarding house on Mitchell street. Hon. A. II. Stephens was out on the streets yester day. He still uses his crutches, otherwise his health is uncommonly goed. Here they go. A portion of he Street Committee of the City Couocil, consisting of Aldermen Young and McMillen. were out on an inspection tour yesterday driving a 2:40 horse. They passed and repassed the Sewer Committee, consisting of the Mayor, together with Aldermen Dodd, Boring, Brotherton, Sparks, Goldsmith and Morris, who were plodding alODg a footback, tired and wearied. The Mayor returned to his office in bis stocking feet, his “corns” having taken a fresh growth on the tramp. Robert Schmidt Las been appointed ageDt of the Central Railroad at this place, to fill the vacancy made by the resignation of H. P. Clark. Corporal Johnnie S. Hawkins leaves this morning for Snmmerville, in Chattooga county. He carries with him a box of paper collars (Dickens), and a pair Thompson Whites.” Ha goes to “ tread once more his native heath,” and while his name is not McGregor, he proposes to “clean out” the mountains •e he returns. Our old friend Lewis Schcessler, of Columbus, is here, attending the Grand Lodge of Odd Fellows. Iu the “long ago” Lewis and “us” were ever understood partners in the universal game of “ knucks,” with which Alabama abounded in those days. We had pleasant calls last night from Messrs. W. D. Stone and C. A. King, of that sterling paper the Mon- Advertiser; Dr. Blackburn, of tho Barnesville Patriot, and Mr. Mirabeau L. Towns, a brilliant young lawyer and writer of Newnan. Billy Stone, the handsome and live editor of the Monroe Advertiser, called in to see us last evening. Since “Bill” has arrived at man’s estate, and, more re cently, to that of the editorial list, we have not seen much of him. But a vivid recollection of the way in which Capt. Blanchard, now of this city, used to maul” the rudiments of the classics into our youth ful heads, down in Alabama, comes over us with re freshing brilliancy. Col. King, of the same paper, was also iu our office last evening. Jno. Schuler and Clarence S. Wayne, formerly sales- ien and traveling agent respectively, for Eugene Jairred, a jeweler of this city, have been arrested for stealing eight thousand dollars’ worh of property from him. They left his employment about two months ago, to go into business for themselves, and perpetrated the robbery at that time. ARRIVALS AT THE NATIONAL.

Mrs Elvira Fambro' 3d, Margurst ItalianPgmticalProspects.—The Roman correspondent of the Corriere di Milano, wri ting on the 17th instant, says that M. Ming- hetti is occupying the time until the next meeting of Parliament in preparing the finan cial measures which are to be submitted to the chamber. So far as can be ascertained, he will not, like M. Sella, propose new taxes, bnt a redaction in the expenditure. 4 ‘But," proceeds the correspondent, “how he will manage to save ont of other votes the fifteen million asked for by the Minister of War it is difficult to see. M. Sella will undoubtt edly attack the new ministry, if no- mmediately, at least in the course of the next parliamentary session. He is far from being so tired of political life as many people think. On the contrary, he is more pugnacious than ever, and next Novem ber he will combine with the moderate men of the right and left centre to form a new and strong party, which wiii probably cause con siderable embarraasment to the ministry. Iu a word, he will inherit the position of Rattaz- zi in the Italian parliament, and dethrone the worthy Depretip. Meanwhile he is going to fiiella, and thence to Vienna, to rest in Germany after the hard work of the last few years. Depretis is said to have left Rome in profound discouragement. He had hoped that alter the division which had placed him at the head of the opposition he would be able to keep together the members of the left and form them into a united party, but a month’s experience showed him that this was quite impossible. The extreme left insisted that Depretis shonld certainly protest against the way in which the ministerial crisis was terminated; it demanded that as soon as Minghetti informed the chamber of the for mation of the new cabinet, Depretis shonld declare that after the division which had over thrown the Lanza ministry both parliament CHARLESTON CARDS.

But the con sequence of Depretis’ opposition to the wishes of the Left soon became manifest, for only yesterday a few members of that party who are still in Rome held a meeting at which it was resolved that another leader should be appointed, as Depretis had made it impossible for the party to act successfully against the Right so long as it remained under his direc tion. The Sea Serpent Again.—The steadily re curring sea serpent, true to its reputation, has appeared again, but has this time thrown its pursuers off the track by making Lake Cham plain the point of its visibility. The White hall Times, describing it, says: “ As he Tapidly swam away, portions of his body, which seemed to be covered with bright silver-like scales, glistened in the sun like burnished metal. From his nostrils he would occasionally spurt streams of water above his head to an altitude of twenty. The appear ance of his head was round and fiat, with a hood spreading out from the lower part of it like a rubber cap often worn by mariners, with a cape to keep the rain from running down his neck. His eyes were small and piercing, his mouth broad and provided with two rows of teeth, which he displayed to his beholders.” But he left no card, and the mystery is not lifted from him. ^HAMROCK HOUSE.

Wyley Lightning Struck— Mayor’s Court—A Negro Shot at—General News. Correspondence Atlanta Herald. Gainesville, August 14, 1873. k vory worthy gentleman and merchant of this place, E. 8. Wyley, was quietly sleeping on a lounge at his residence last Sunday evening, when a flash of lightning passed entirely through his house, tearing off window facing, plastering, Ac., as it went. But this is NOT ALL. Itstinck Mr. Wiley near the top of his head, and passed down his body to his knee, where it left him, Mr. Wyley was knocked senseless by the shock, and in & few miuntes DBA. BAILEY AND GREEN wero called in, and after working with him an hour , they restored him to his senses. The scorched surfac3 on the body of Mr. Wyley .is not unlike the mark left down the body of the stately oak when it has been lightning struck. Mr. Wyley is up and about, but is complaining of considerable soreness. One offender was up before His Honor tho Mayor on yeaterJay, for using tome cuss WORDS not long ago. to the disturbance of the cilizeus. was let off with five ani coats, lie didn’t mind the Ave, but didn’t know, nor couldn’t bo convinced, how ths costs had run up to the enormous aum of $17 50.

Republican of a recent date publishes the following singular story : “ On Sunday afternoon a young girl of respectable appearance called at a cottage near the Highland Station, find asked ‘ Where is Brooklyn ?’ The question was so odd, and the girl appeared so strauge, that the State Marshal, Mr. H. P. Deinarest, was sent for. He questioned the child, and elicited a start ling story. She gave her name—which at present we shall not publish—and that of her parents in Brooklyn, and their street and number. She stated that morning to vi-it an aunt residing in New York, and, on reaching the Battery, waited for a Tenth avenue car. While waiting, she saw a carriage standing near, aud noticed it— that it was rather shabby, the varnish rubbed oft', the horses, one white aud the other dark, and poor hacks at that. While thus walking and waiting, a man, w ho came along as if to Dass her, suddenly threw a flannel cloth over ler head. She remembered nothing more until, as if waking from a dream, she found she was in a close carriage, and somebody was just going out, shutting the door behind him. She, moreover, heard the person say, “By ! it’s all day with us. if we don’t get away from here pretty soon.” Bousing still more, she discovered that tho carriage was broken down, and peeping out, she saw two men in slouched hats, 200 or 300 yards off, appa rently looking for something. When their backs were turned, she contrived to escape unseen into the woods. Her escape must have been somewhere near Foil Lee. She described a gravej'ard which she passed that seems to have been the Catholic jurying ground, and she remembers passing tho Eaglewood Presbyterian Church. But she wandered on until she reached the cot tage where Mr. Demarest found her. Mr. W. G. Vtrmnye, living near, also came in, and tho two gentlemen brought the poor young creature—she is only fourteen—to the Englewood depot. Here they telegraphed to her father, nnd took her to the house of a friend. The father did not get his telegram until 10 o’clock, p.m., but then came directly on, reaching the house where the child was about midnight. Mr. Demarest has seen the father, and he finds the girl’s statement quite correct. The poor thiug was, on Sunday, still so much under the influence of tho nar cotic that she dozed off while telling her st©- Sho furthermore says that, for some weeks past, she has been followed by an old woman, who was striving to decoy her away, nnd who threatened that she would have her before long. The girl thinks she could iden tify at least one of the men; but it is to be feared the chances of arrest are now small.” Senator Harlan’s Washington Chronicle of yesterday morniug condemns the present sys tem of competitive examinations for the civil service in the strongest terms, declaring that they are unequal, unjust, and a failure. It says that the execution of the rules will result in lowering the standard of official abilit/ and excellence. Examinations in many instances are conducted without any reference to the object to be attained, aud in direct opposition to the ordinary rules that govern and control business men in the selection of their assist ants. The Chronicle further says there may be some good in the system, but thus far no evidences of it have been shown either in its execution or in the selections made under its rales other than that which might have result ed had there beeu no civil-service examina tion whatever. At a recent examination for positions in the Treasury Department twcuty- three or twenty-four successful ones were fe male school-teachers, nearly all residents of Washington. The special correspondent of the Commer cial Bulletin, writing from Vienna under date of June 17, speaks as follows of several arti cles on exhibition in tho American depart ment : A small printing press, American, but sent here from a London office, strikes off cards and circulars as fast as they have orders, and a patent for cutting out garments is real Yan kee—cutting twenty thicknesses at a time. Mr. Alban Worth is the inventor and manu facturer, and claims that he has the only self- cutting and feeding machines in the world. Howe lias a few sewing machines here for competition; and just beyond, occupying a fine site, is a lull lino of Fairbanks scales for evety possible use, aud arranged for all countries. There is nothing intended for uso which comes np to these in the exhibi tion, though there are many exhibitions of scales. Among tue guests at Halle, Austria, are a number of Russian nnd Austrian children, nearly all of whom can speak the English language. This is especially the case with the Russian aud North German children. They are in charge of governesses, aud their general conversation is in English, though they speak French and their native tongue also. A little Russian, less than five years of age, speaks very correctly in English, French and Russian. We were astonished a day or two since at hearing a voice under our win dow exclaiming: “William, if you do not come here this minute I will tell your moth er.” The children are taught to speak Eng lish, although their parents have no knowl edge of the language. This would indicate that the next generation will at least speak our language more extensively than the pres ent do. So much for President Grant’s pre diction.—[Letter from Mr. Fulton. A new and cruel invention at Long Branch is the introduction of living butterflies into the centre-pieces of flowers, which usnaily adorn the middle of the table of the fashiona ble dinner and supper parties. The poor in sects are fastened by a fine wire, which is passed through their bodies and concealed among the flowers. The convulsive quiver of the expanded wings, as tho tortured butterfly struggles in its dying agonies, is supposed to represent charmingly the graceful waves of the same above some freshly-opened flower.

House cleaning is a great horror to nine men men out of every ten. When that time comes tho “men folks,” as a rule, give the domestic hearth a “wide berth.” Oceans of suds — the product of tons of soap—fairly flood every part of the house. The women, from the mistress down, labor as they never worked before, and wliat with the discomfort, the smell of suds and the dampness, and not un- frequently sickness, the product ot colds and overw ork, matters are generally disagreeable. The simple use of Sapolio instead of soap does away with all this discomfort It light ens the labor a hundred per cent., because it removes dirt, grease, stains and spots, with hardly any labor, with but little water, and in one-tenth the usual time. nng8-lw BetAil dealers in city and country can always find Bacon, Flour, Grain, Hay, &.c. t Ac., at july23-tf Dunn, Ogletree A Co’s.
