A Howling Complaint. tire engine stuck in the mud. a the Editors or the Herald: If I am correctly Informed, one of our most valtta- « fire engines, while attempting to pass over Mitcb- 1 street, opposite Mr. Richard Peters’ residence, one ght last winter, sunk down into the red clsy mud wo rep that it was impossible to extricste the machine “HI next day—whether any valuable property was at iu consequence of the inability of the fire comps* T h> reach the place in time to extinguish the flames not known to your correspondent. Thst this state I thla*. thould not longer be permitted to exist In ►e hesrt of the city, ail are agreed, Peters street from Forsyth to Whitehall has been ►oronghly macadamized, this was Important and seded work, but this street is not traveled one-tenth ) much as Mitchell from Whitehall to the Macon ailroad. We cannot doubt that the honorable and ileliigent committee having this important improve tent under advisement will report to the Council re- >mmending the macadamizing of Mitchell street, long that part of it named in this communication, as work demanded by the commercial community and “e public. This would certainly be the vote of the Tax Pater. But he that filches frpm me my good name, Taketh that that enricheth not him, But makes me poor Indeed.” The first case called was one of a denominational difference, in which Adam Beck, a prominent mem ber of the colored Methodist Church (anywhere) had said in a public place that he did not know what sort of rules the Baptist niggers had in their church aa regards dancing, but he had always understood that they were rather severe on that point. Anyway, he saw Sallie Hay good, a noted Baptist sister, on the floor at a ball and dancing. Sister Sallie went to see Adam concern ing some remarks, and as that brother, like all good Methodists, could not tell a lie, he repeated the words. This was more than any Baptist in good standing could stand, and she picked up an old barrel stave and resented this aspersion on her religions tenets in a iively way. On the trial, Adam told just exactly how He told the Court that it knew itself thst all denominations were disposed to watch each other and pick flaws in their conduct, and he merely remarked to Mrs. Haygood that such conduct would not be tolerated in kit church, and called upon the Court to help him out in the assertion. The Court being of the Wesleyan turn of mind itself bore Adam oat, and the case was dismissed. Bat this did not sat isfy Sallie. With genuine denominational ferrer, she was bound to “argy” and have the last word, and got mad that she insisted on belug tried and had wit" nesses called. Before she got started on her trial, she became so overbearing in her remaiks that she was fined ten dollars for contempt. This cooled off her Bsptistic fervor for swhile, and the case pro ceeded. Oue of her witnesses also got so excited tint •he was cooled by a $10 fine, and at this announcement a colored friend, of the Baptist side in the audience, became so excited that he raised half up and said, ‘Hie—I say, Judge—hie—Sillte’s all right—hlc—lem ne—hie—” He was dragged before the Court, fined ten dollars and tent to the dungeon in charge of two officers. The meeting was getting to be interesting. Much excitement prevailed. The contribution hat had been passed around so often that the collection had already amounted to thirty dollars, and the services were brought to a close, by s lecture from the stand. Adam had a strong frtend in the Conrt, snd the Baptist sis ters were whipped out. He then turned to Adam and wound up on him with this doxology: “In speaking of a person’s fault, Pray don't forget your own; Remember, those with homes of glass Should seldom throw a stone; If we have nothing else to do But talk of those who sin, ’Tia better we commence at home. And from that point begin.” Which was set to the tone of “Hastings,” and Jonsen hastened on to the next appointment in the circuit. It appears that James Gray went to seek relaxation from his exhausting labors as a drayman, and jour- neysu Eastward among the gay and festive inhabitants of Shermantown, and there invaded the nest of oue of the Fairies. Oue of these ethereal beings began sressingly to joke with the “heavy tragedian” of the whip and hurt his “pheelinx.” 8he endeavored to soothe him by calling him her Alonzo, and. striking a mock tragedy attitude, exclaimed; “And if e’er I should marry a handsome swain, Forgetting Alonzo the Brave, Oh come from thy coffin in thunder and rain And bring a large carrot to batter my brain, Till the carpet cf Bruaaels is red with the stain. Then carry me off to the grave.” This was what Mr. Gray, who had stopped writing his Eiegy in a country brick yard, to give in his evidence, termed “s little love persuasion,” and “coaxing,” but it failed to soften the heart of the tragedian, who hit her upon the nose, causing that interesting feature to oleed, aa also upon the chin, aud finally krocking her down, when she invited the police to the funeral, and had Mr. Gray arrested. She ex hibited in testimony a bloody apron aud a gory collar. The Court not being a judge ol human gore, sent the articles below to Dr. Barry to analyze, but before the Dr. could decide whether it was beef or nigger blood the court fined each ten dollars and costs and raieed the curtain on tue next scene. Adam Bntler scorns the iusitfhation that he is in any way related to Spoons, although he is chief cook and spoon cleaner at a bearding house. A lady of his nationality accused him of sticking a nail in a water melon which grew in the garden, thereby rendering the fruit worthless; whereupon Adam, forgetting that he was a man,and because be was a coward,called the woman a lie, and struck her for which he psys ten and costs. James Gay, with a head shaped like it, bad been un der a crack of the fence all his life, is perhaps the gay est police deceiver in the city. Ihey have been after him for three months, for beating a little negro boy over the head with * iwntniit. Th« boy appeared.and exhibited the scars, and the Court knew the licks were hard if they made such scars on his head, and allowed Gay to pay ten dollars. John McEvey was found by the conservators of so briety in the neighborhood of Brotherton’s corn r, in a state of uncompromising intoxication. John had saturated his stomsch in red-eye, from which recep tacle it had permeated his system, until he was not only drunk clear through, but from the crown of his hat to the sole of his boot there was not a sober func tion. Ho was unanimously and by acclamation drunk. The Court gave him a five dollar talk and let him pay the balance in greenbacks. Luther Bridweli and Thomvs Thrash were up for testing their manhood. They are both boys. Luther is not as large as Tom, but has the advautage of that individual by being able to smoke cigars. This fact rather rankled in the breast of Tom, and he merely flipped a little rock at him to see if he could knock the cigar out of his mouth. He came close enough to knock the ashes off the end, and he and Luther clinched. Two other boya testified, and the whole affair closed with a fine each of flva and costs. The Court then asked Joasen if there were any more cherries in the pie, and when that innocent youth re plied in the negative, the Court smiled sweetly on him and remarked— J. M.

Zuncgfc-tf dashes here and there. It was currently reported on the streots. yesterday, that General McRae, of the State Read, bad been elected, by the directors^snptiinieudent of the Air- Line. We are indebted to Mr. Walter May for the Premium List of the Annual Fair of the Greene County Fair Association, to be held at the Greene County Pleasure Park, Greensboro, Ga., to begin Monday, October 20, 1873, snd close Saturday, the 25th. A German Jew was eating pork chop during a thun der storm. On hearing an unusually loud clap of thunder, he laid down his knife and fork, and said, “Veil, did any poty effer hear such a fuss spout a liddle pid o’ bork ?” Miss Tucker says it’s with old bachelors as with old wood. It is hard to get them started, but when they do take flame they burn prodigiously. It is considered very wrong tor a young lady not to stick her arms back like a grasshopper’s legs and then walk with a sailor’s swagger. They call it the “New port roll.” When a youDg lady gets loaded down with bottles, fans, umbrellas, tooth-brushes and gutte- percha combs, and moves off with the “grasshopper bend” and “Newport roll,” yon might as well got off of ihe balcony and let the train go by. I always do. Brother Rcdwine, of the Gainesville Eagle, having heard that sulphur in the aocks would prevent cholera, has worried a stick cf brimstone out of Dr. Hanie, and now wants Van Caldwell to loan him a pair of socks while he tries the thing. There are 10,712 policemen iu London and they patrol about 7,612 miles of streets, while the City Coun cil of Atlanta expects thirty policeman to patrol about the same number of miles of Atlanta. And when you take out a solitaire ring, oi “seal the vow,” or something of that sort, as New York fellows always try to do with almost every Bos ton girl who goes to Saratoga, she looks up b’ushing, snd iu the language of Swinburne poetically remarks: There! somebody’s coming—don't look so— Get up on your own ebair again— Can't you seem as if nothing had happened? I never saw such gees6 as you men. The Methodist church the world over claims an ag gregate of 15,000,000 members. The last sweet thing in ear-rings is a pair of oxyu" ized silver buckets suspended from a golden wheel. The latest novelty iu brooches is a combination of two wheels revolving iu opposite directions around a dia rnond centre. The happy young woman who deco, rates herself with these unique ornaments will surely be irresistible. What masculine heart could be safe for an instant in the presence of a gentle maiden from whose ears depended miniature likenesses he old oaken bucket, eudeared by childish memories, aud who wore at her throat the counterfeit presentment of thq mill-wheel which was one ol the fetishes of his boyhood. Aph rodite rising from' the irridescent sea-foam, Sabrina knitting the train of her amber-dropping hair with lilies, or Undine gazing through her filmy fountain veil, would vainly contest dominion with a mortal thus arrayed, and no question of good taste should deter jewelers from manufacturing such articles, cause ladies to hesitate in compelling some masculine being to purchase them immediately. What if nament bo absurd and ugly and disfiguring, if it be new? Yesterday was the most pleasant day of the week. Our fashionable leaders say short waists have l>epn revived. Silver has been discovered in one of the Isle of Man’s pockets. A Pittsburg coroner makes no charge where he sits on a young man who parted his hair in the middle. He says that his personal satisfaction is enough with out the fee. A few more chances are left in the rafllce for the diamond pin at Hayne’s jewelry store. John S.

AT LAST. Result Of (Be Georgia. Kailrou vestIgalions—More Officials Decapitated. For some mouths past the readers of tbs Herald have been aware that a serious and stirring investiga tion baa been going on in regard to tbe affairs of some of the officials of the Georgia Road. The early stage of this investigation pointed especially to Mr. Peter Printup. tbe Supervisor of the Road; Mj. Hhlpley, fcia Assistant, and Mr. Rhodes,the General Freight Agent. Tbe Herald has received scores ol letters upon the subject, presenting many points of objection to the affairs of the road, which we have ref rained from pub lishing at tbe earnest request of the officers of the road, who were investigating tbe matter, and wbo feared such publication might interfere with their procedure. The investigations y esterday terminated, or culmi nated, in the “final suspension” of Peter Printup, su pervisor; Mr. Shipley, assistant supervisor, and Mr. Rhodes, general freight agent. Mr. Hicks, for years a day passenger conductor upon the road has been appointed supervisor, vice Mr. Pnntup, removed. We are unable to give the details or the reason* of these removals, but have telegraphed to Augusta for them, and will present them at the earliest possible moment. The road has acted very carefully in this matter, and with dne deliberation.

He hoped the matter could be fioally disposed of now. Dr. W. R. D. Thompson, ou the part of the Board of Health, was heard on the same question.

Siuco our honorable Mayor and Council, upon the very urgent request of the able Board of Health, to prevent the keeping of “ green filthy “hides within tho city limits, lias proposed a law to that effect, we again urgocur customers to havo their hides free from filth and pieces of meat. To avoid uupleasautness, we would advise our friends to procure a certificate from some of our com petent physicians, of the healthy and clean condition of each hide, and «hose living near a drug store might slightly perfume the hide. au30 2t Elsas, May A Co. Roman Cutliollo Pars* GRAND KNTEBTAINMEMT GHT CONCORDIA. This much talked of entertainment was presented last evening by the ladies aud gentlemen amateurs of tbe Catholic church, at Concordia Hall. The evening programme waa extensively circulated the day- pievi- ous, and at night the spacious hall was completely filled. In fact, it w’aa almost impossible to procure standing room. The performance opeuod*tarly and everything was previously arranged so as to cause no unnecessary de lay. Tho fine orchestra, led by Profess'r Spahr, and assisted by % number of Freyer’s orchestra opened the exercises with a grand overture which pervaded the audience, and lent a spirit ripe for the enjoyment of the truly magnifloent tableaux which followed. The costumes, scenes and general management of tbe entire affair reflects much credit upon the ladies and gentlemen who assisted and conducted it; and some of the scenes were really magnificent. Mr. John R. Scott excelled himself on this occasion; his readings snd repeated recitations were enthu siastically received by the audience. Barring some outrageous conduct by a portion of the less thoughtful of the assemblage, everything was voted a suveess. We are strongly of the opioion that the presence of a few active policemen would have con duced to the quietude of large number of boys whose screeching and yells wore horrible to hear. These things we know are peculiar to most of our publio entertainments, and for that reason we desire to see «t squelched. The late hour at which we obtaiu our reports pre vent a more extended notice of several particular scenes which are deserving of special mention. Auction This Mobnxkg.—The Old Reliable Barrett* at the Live Auction House,^this morning, will have one of his big Bales. They have an immense Btock of goods in store, which they are bound to sell for what they will bring. Among them arc throo pianos, bug gies, suits of fine furniture aud household goods too numerous to mention. Also ono fine, large, iron safe and a large 8w'iss regulator. If one wants bargains this is tbe time and place to get tnem. Barrett be lieves life is too short to dwell long on these things. Go out. A New Paper.—We received yesterday the first number of the Gainesville Advertiser, a bran new pa per, just started at Gainesville by Messrs. T. J. Tram mell A Co. The heavy editor is Mr. J. 8.

Peel A Son of No. 36 Marietta street, an nounce that they have perfected arrangements to sup ply tho public with pure, sweet milk, iu any quantity, at all hours of the day. The well known character of Peel is a guarantee that the milk will always bo of the host and purest quality, and our citizens will do well to patronize them. Non-Explosive.—Considerable cxcitemout wtt caused night betore Isat at Bridwell’s store, on Mitch ell street, by tbe burning of s petroleum lamp. It did not explode, but tbo oil ran oat, covered tho lamp and caught ou fire. It answered every purpose for an excitement, as the crowd scattered and the burning lamp was thrown into tho street. Mirk W. Johnson announces that he has reoeived a- cxr load of bagging and ties, which ho offers for sale at his usual low figures. Planters will do well to pay him s visit and purchase a supply.
