In this tribunal yesterday several cases on the docket were sounded and sema were tried and dispos ed of. Toy Hunt, colored, was tried and found guilty of simple larceny, in stealing some line pears from R. Pc- ters, and sente need to pay a line of $25 and costs, or go to the chain gang for threo months. Henry Ilillyer appeared as counsel for the defendant. Mary Bird, a colored woman, was tried on the charge of vagrancy, but found not guilty. The Court adjourned to nine o’clock this morning, at which time all interested will do well to be present. Court of Orff inary. Yesterday was the probite term of the Court o f Ordinary, and Judge Pittman transacted the follow ing business: H. J.

TLere waa about an equal distribution of criruina business amoDg the four magistrates of the city ye* terday. Every one bal his case and wts happy. Judge Butt, early in the day, set to work vigorously investigating a case against the widely known Mollis Shuford, colored, charged with vagr- nry. The evi dence adduced, however was not of that tharocU warrant her conviction, and she was therefore dis charged. Judge Sasaein istnr-d Lis war.ant for the arrest of Jane Anderson, colored, for larceny. Tho property alleged to have been feloniously taken away, was rib bon, worth one dollar, from tbo store of Rcgeitisteto k Bro., on Saturday night last The writ waa prompt ly executed by the Constable, but when brought into Conrt the prosecution waa withdraws and the pros pect of a trial exploded.

After considerable delay tho two agrord to withd the proceedings, and at the request of tho prosecutor the warrant was withdrawn.

Atlanta, Oa., September 1,1373 To the Editors of tiik Hrrald We approve mott heartily your comments in yester day's-paper upon the proposed M Advertising Drop Curtain" lor DtUixe’a Opera Houa?. Vc think it a sad comment upon the tastes of our citizens, and to be compelled to an In the parquetto or dress circle of a new Opera House and gsze upon a recno that is painted upon every old fence, barn door, enclosure, Ac., is certainly, not calculated to be a very pleasant prelude to the scenes and acta of &nt-c »v* opera*. Ho, Ho I We bop# Mr. DeGive will present to tka peoplo such a ceene upon the drop curtain that would la itself numerate the person for the price of admission; and the Opera House la the place of all places where expect to sea refinement and the fine art a meat beau tifully iUu&trated. We hope, Mr. Editors, yon sill continue to make war upon this eham and shoddy style of music and fine arts in opm and drama. , • Cirtzt That’s the reason, frankly stated, why most of our friends, the frequenters of the Police Court, take kind ly to Cincinnati busthcad. Teeterday morning the docket called for thirty two cases. This is perhaps the largest Court, save one ex ception, that has assembled this year. The Recorder assembled himself ptomptly at ten o’clock, because he knew that Monday was a good day for hia buairesa. Quite a number of cases pletd guilty, by proxy, and whoso names were not called out m Conrt. hence, they are lost to posterity in these annals. They were for simple druuks, drunk and disorderly and profane. For the unpremeditated drunk cn the streets, five dol lars were assessed, and for the latter, the stereotyped ten and costs. About one-half of the cases were thns disposed of, which accelerated tha business of the Court wonderfully. Dicey Warren waa fished out by the seine, charged with quarreling with Fanny Hudson about the way the latter used some of her clothes daring her last week in prison. As soon as she was liberated, she went home and got up a fuss with Fanny, which terminated in her being sont back to her old quarters on the chain gang for thirteen days, and the advice to carry her clothes along with her. Henry Coachman was a mere “tap” on the axle-tree of the main vehicle, and was up for throwing rocks at his little brother. He got off with a reprimand. George Washington is likely to become as famous in police history as his great father was in that of bis country. He has net been out of tho lock up more . than a week before he picks another quarrel and gets in again for ton and cost*. I Robt. Mariner trimmed his sai!s,|vrtighed anchor and took a tack and bore down on the aforesaid George Washington. Being a good seaman he was successful in making George a matter of “marque and reprisal’’ and overhauled him under the bridge when ho achiev ed a Perry victory. The court came in lor Its share of ten and costa. nenry Evans, for being disorderly, quarreling and prolane language; ten and costs. Laura Howard and Sarah Ann Crawford formed a “ring" on Dinah Love, aud the first thing that god- de83 knew she was “cornered” and came out second best in a hand to hand combat. Tbo invading forces each pay ten and costs for war materials. E. A. Colins plead guilty to being drunk and got off with five and costa. L. H. Tollison was down with the same complaint, and got off with tho like amount of greenbacks. Mr. Townsend paid ten and coats for shying a weigh at a negro’s head. Dr. Borman was called, but it turned out that he was tho wrong man in the wrong place, and after an explanation all round ho was discharged. [Right here the reporter would remark, that the combined animal heat of three big fat policeman, who leant against his desk and obstructed hia view, at the simo timo emiting an official municipal odor, had a good deal to do with his not seeing and hearing every thing that was going on. The reporter does not blame the officers for being fa?. They can’t help that. Any naturalist will explain to you why men grow fat who do but littlo and sleep soudly.] The composure of the su.lieacc, just here, was dis turbed by the rustle of brocades, the chatter of femi nine voices, and the entrance of a levy of sylphs from tho Shermantown district. Bewildered by so much youth, loveliness, frapgepaui and chalk, it was some timo before the audience could quiet its nerves. At length sufficient tranquillity was Jrestored to proceed with the investigation of this apjarition from the celestial suburbs. One of the sylphides, rejoicing in the freshness of tho nsms of Mollie May, is proprie- tressa of a house, into which came Alcena and Lilly Wright. Alcena soized Mias May by the substrata of the waterfall and dragged her down upon the breathless pave and placed her royal sand il npon the neck cf the prostrate Empress. Just then the fair Lilly rushed upon the stage and joined in tho assault. Between the two Wrights Miss May-day stood a fair chance to bo grievously wronged, when another heroic Amazonian came to the rescue, and swore that it was unconstitutional for two “ to get on one." The fight might have been long, bloody and dis astrous, but for the entrance of the police, who told them their “ little hands were never made to tear each other’s eyes out" The court discharged the abused Miss May, and ficcd the other two ten and costs, each. Malvina Kelley and Carrie Car were room mates, and partner’s in a first-class laundry establishment. They occupied tho same bed, aud fell out about the simple matter of who should make it up in the morn- Malvina went into details of the affair, which waa about as interesting to the g meral reader average copy of tho Roms Courier, an I tlie court cut the matter short by finding each ten and costs. Julia Lackey didn’t lack the nerve to frail her seven teen year old son, because she found some suspicious notes in his breeches pockets from a young girl over the way whom she didn’t like. A policeman brought her np, but the Court dismissed her with tbo under standing that she should “wear him out” every time she caught him engaged in such business, which she premised to do. Matilda Green was verdant enough to believe that she could inaugurate a small Abhm'.ea war, without incurring the disfavor ol the Conrt, in which she was set right by being fined ten dollars and costs. Two young men, Fitzgerald aud Einslj, for fighting, in which tha former paid $25 aud the lat ter $15 aud costs. An old friend and frequent visitor of tho Court, named Grayson, who was shot to pieces during the war, and still lives the surviving hero of many a bat tle, on Saturday succumbed to Gen. Barleycorn, and was overhauled by the police, drunk ou the street and singing martial ballads, of which the only varsa re membered was— CoBTcntion of Ex-Cadets Georgia Mili tary Institute.

The diabanding of the lattalion was a necessity. Our guns and tents bod been turned over to the State or Confederate authorities, under special order; the buildings at Mariolta had been burned; the apparatus, John ' library aud furniture of the Institute, which had been removed to Miiledgeville for 6afo keeping, had been destroyed by tho United States army, and thewondi- tion of tho currency left the Superintendent without the means of oven furnishing the poorest subsistence* There was nothing ot value remaining to the Institute but the small tract of land near Marietta, upon which the buildings once stood. This absolute destitution presents now the question whether the Georgia Military Institute shall be aban doned by the State, or some effort made for its resus citation. If after the storm of desolation had passed which swept away so much of the material resources of the State, the people of Georgia had been content to sit down m despair amidst these ruins—if nothing had been done to restore the operations of the farm and the but-mess and active life of her cities, the move- meat low inaugurated would be hopeless. But Geor- ' gia lost lo time in lamentations over the losses she Tho Public Schools. RKOIKNED YESTERDAY—RUSH FOB BOOKS. The various public schools in the city were re opened yesterday morning, the glad vacation days being over. The children all over the city seemed just as glad, though, ot the reopening of tlie echools as they were of vacation when it began. The attendance yesterday at each of the schools was very large, showing that onr people have great and in creasing confidence in tho Atlanta Pablic School system. Yesterday evening there was an immense rush of children, parents, guardians, Ac., st the various book stores for books, maps, charts, Ac. It would have made any man wish he owned a book store to watch the incessant pouring of greenbacks over the counters and Into the tills of these useful institutions. But the children—the pleasant-faced boys and glad-eyed girls, who are to make tho men and women of onr land, were just as happy to get their new books as the merchant was to get their money. God bless the children and tho echoola. The Code.—Our readers will perhaps remember that some time since an affair of. honor between some parties in this place and others in Alabama, came to what appeared a mysterious termination. It was re ported on the streets that the affair was not settled, but according to some provisions of the “Code" a post ponement was asked for and granted for the space of forty-six days, which times expires on September 3. We understand that the parties from this city left here on Sunday night for tho battlefield, and perhaps iu the course of a day or two we may hear something further from tho affair.

Dunwoody and Penn McCatchey, E qs., chosen Secretaries. The roll of those already registered was called and those not registered came forward and gavo their ! names to the secretaries, thus completing the register j of those present. Tho minutes of the last meeting of ti e ex-Oodeta , were read and confirmed.* Capt Milledgc explained in ^i-w pertinent remarks the causes which led him to call this convention to gether here instead of at Marie tta, as had been ex pected. He invoked harmony in tlieir counsel-*; thought no one with reasonable sense would oppose establishment of the Georgia Military Iustitute. There was no antagonism between this Institute and the Colleges at Athens and elsewhere. Ho closed his remarks amidst loud applause. Col. Austin introduced a resolution resolving the Convention into an Association of the Officers and ex- Cadets of the Georgia Military Iustitute, aud exclud ing all others from j arlicipation in the proceedings of the Association. This resolution wai considerably discussed, and was withdrawn. Professor B. W. Robinson moved the appointment of a Committeo on Organization. The following. Col. Robertson, Capt. Stylos, Col. Freeman, Capt. Harrison, and Julius E. Brown, Esq , were appointed oa that committee. Ou motion of Gen. P. M. B. Young, tbo Convention tock a recess until the committee was ri a ly to report.

He was relifcvtd, aud tl.c name of Colonel Miiner, of Bartow, was substituted. Tho report of the committee was received and adopted. On taking the chair, Colonel Uanis made a very neat little speech, thanking the convention f »r the honor conferred on him. On motion the convention returned thauks to C.-.pt rescue. Tho plowshare opened again its accustomed | furrow, the anvil and the loom gave forth once more • the music of industry. Here where, nluc years ago,sacked, pillaged, burned Atlanta offered little shelter for man or beast, we find i to-day a capital worthy the great State she so magaifi- i ceuty adorns, within whoso noble halls we inhale in spiring hope with every breath, and feel the exultation of tho captive who has been suddenly released aud joins tbo shout of victory with his friends. Our hopes must not mislead us into undue conli lence. Many of our citizens do not understaud the character of the system of education adopted at the Iustitute, aud yet others object to tbe reorganization of the Institute, os if that measure would bo taken agaiust the interests of peace. "Have we not peace ail over tho land?" we arc asked. We thank Qod for peace, but wo kuow how truly tho poet sings of “Peace in the woodland aud the lonely glen, Made rankly fertile by the blood of men." The world is not so perfectly at re*t that no clouds are visible in any patt of its political horizon. If it was so aLd peace reigued supremo everywhere the counsel of Washington would still have force, and it would be well “in time of p«ace to prepare for war.” When the strength which can maintain our rights is added to the intelligence which ascertains what they are, might and right move on together compelling respect. Who can foresee the exigencies of the future ? It may be that the military knowledge acquired in boyhood under the regulation of a military, academic life will be useful to the student; or it may be that he will scarcely have completed his course before he | is summoned to tbo field. | In cither event, lie is individually benefitted, for it j is claimed that tbe course of studies and system of j discipline which Las heretofore been adopted for tho ! Georgia Military Institute, is eminently practical, pe- j culiarly adipted to tbe. preccnt wants of onr people. : This will appear in tbe inexpemdvenegs of the school, the physical training enforced by its laws and rogula i tion3 aud tho habits of economy, hoalthful exercise and industry, super in luced by tbe daily routine of academical duties. Consider tho opening of the | day at tho Institute. Follow the Cadet ' through tlie exercises of a day and you will find that by systematizing the duties of the student ! under regular discipline, tho greatest amount of I mental labor is secured without a tax upon the physi cal construction, while iu all moral ami social respects this discipline abounds in poetical lessons of cdura- Cotion Warehouse.—In our advertising columua thi^ morning wiil be found the card of P.

The Parrott Brothers are also known as live commission merchants, full of business punctuality. They occupy the old store of McDaniel A Strong, cor- Pryor and Hunter streets. The Hoi* To-Night.—We have every assurance that the entertainment to come off to-night at the Kimball se, in honor of the ex-Cadets, will be the most brilliant of the season. There are a large number of them present, and no pains nor expense will be spared by tbe committee lo reuder the hop pleasant aud agreeable to all who attend.

We hopo our young people will turn out and lend their pres ence and encouragement this evening to the entertain ment. Facts For Advertisers* We deeiro io imprets upon the merchants of Atlanta and advertisers generally the value ol the Herald as an advertising medium. We know we do not exag gerate when we assert thst it is by all odds the best medium through which to reach the people of Georgia, South Carolina, Alabama aud Eaat Tennessee. In these States, taken together, it has no equal in circula tion. However, we don’t propose to boast, but me-e- ly to publish facts. The following note from our pressman is the first wo shall present. Herald Pbe&s Roo*s, September 1,1873. Proprietors of the Herald: In reply to yonr Inquiry, I assert, aud am ready to make legal affidavit to the assertion, that iu tho PAST THREE MONTHS, the actual, permanent increase in tho subscription of the Daily Herald bos been over one thousand copies; that it ha« increased rapidly ever since I came here, and never so rapidly as in the past few weeks. In all my years of experience as a pressman, I never saw anything to at all approach the magical growth of the Heuald's circulation. Very respectfully, 8am. P. Vells, Pressman. When it is renumbered that the last three months have barn by all odds the very dullest of the year, an increase of about one hundred daily subscribers a week, is a thing almost incredible; especially when consider the unparalleled dullness of tho season.

With such claims upon public favor, the forinor patrons, friend*, graduates and officers, professors and cadet j ask tlie restoration of the Georgia Military Institute. They rejoice to know that Georgia has resumed her place among the Stales, not torn and dishevelled, but from tho seaboard to the mountains within and without the fiery path of civil war, clothed iu her prestinc strength. Of all the jewels of State that decked her noble brow in former days, but one is lacking, or rather let us say there is but one unrepre sented jewol there, for tho ornament remains and must remain forever. The memory of the Georgia Military Institute is uupcrichahl-j while Georgia lisa a history. Hundreds left her academic halls to load importuat commands in the armies of the Confederacy, resigning to their younger associates the less imposing but scarcely less Important duties which tho caaets of Georgia discharged at Camp Brown aad at Camp Me.

Their paign was no holiday afthir. Their roll tells tho story of wounds and protracted struggle and deprivation, aud fever and death.

The honor of founding the Institute belonged to Colonel A. V, Brumby. The business of this Convention was to see to it that the Georgia Military Institute, burned downed by a vandal horde, should be rebuilt. Tbe opposition and obstacles in tho way could be overcome by a united effort on the part of those who want to see her restored to her former glory.

But a few years ago this chamber was filled by those who wrapped arcund them tho cloak of patriotism, to hiilethoir acts of vice. Thank God, it was now again filled with hon' cat men, and honesty filled the Executive Chair. This is the merert outline of his rtmarks. General F. W. Capers after a motion lo adopt the resolutions seriatem, had been made and seconded, addressed the convention. * He spoke of the past of tho Institute: said it had a glorious record which he wanted to see put on papor. Ho spoke of General I’. M. B. Young a« one of the elder brothers of tho Cadets whose red plumo bad already led on to glory. General Capers remarked that thought did not flow frcc-ly when feeling was so intense as his was on tho present occasion* He refer red to tbo disbanding of the Cad at Lattalion in Au gnats, in May, 1865—of tholr lajt scrvicos; read tbe last order Issued to them, which was also (lie last order issued to Southern soldiers east of tho Missis sippi; spoke of tho honorable manner in which Capt Jno.

He concluded by reading to the con vention the following brief liintory of tho Ooorgia Military Institute: Tbe Georgia Military Instituto was founded and first organized by Col. A. V. Brumby. At his instance, in 1851, a joint stock company was formed and tbe Institute chartered as a MHilary Col lege under the control of a board of trustees. Tb e land and buildings remained tho property of Colonel Brumby and his associates until 1857, when tho eotiro establishment waa purchased by tho Stato and appro priations mado for tbe erection of additional buildings and to procure apoarstns for Ihe scientific departments of instruction. In addition to the board of trustors a board of visitors was appointed at each session of tha Legislature, who reported to them directly npon the affairs of the Institute. From this lime tbe Insti tute became in all respects a Stato College. Tbe organization at present provided for in tlio Code of Georgia, waa Uio result of Legislation recom mended in tho annual message of the Governor in 1859. The regutalions prescribing the courso of itudiea bitious hope of preferment led them on. They fought and died for the altars and the firesides around which clustered au aged father or mother or gentle sisters. What more fitting monument could the 8 ate erect to the memory of their dead than to rebuild the Institute in which they were trained; its corner stone inclosing their gathered remains, inscribing their names among tho heroic dead, with the motto, “ We lie here at the command of Georgia, which our hearts delighted to obey.” The’qneetion ou the adoptiou of the rcsolutiooe ported by the committee ou business being about to bo put, Colonel A. V. Brumby, tbe founder and firet superintendent of the Institute, arose, a* lie said, not to make a speech, but to iccito a few plain facts. Ho was about to go to Minrisrippl to found a Military Institute when be hap- ucued to meet Judge Iverson and Col Foutalu who insisted that Georgia was tbe State to establish it in. lie visited various towns; finally visited Marietta; a joint stock company waa organized through the efforts of Judge Irwiu, General Hansel!, Governor McDonald and others, with a capital of $<;,0C0. Colonel Robert son and himself were with tho Instituto front the very first. They were several years get ting the 8tate to buy the Instituto. Tho plan tfhs to got the strong men of tho State impressed with the importance of tho subject. He urged ihoso present not to let one, two oi any number of failures discourage them. Tha Instituto must bo re-cstablisbed. As It was uow time to ad journ, Colonel Austin moved to adjourn. General Will iam Phillips asked leave to withdraw the motion for a momcut,aad informodthe Convention that the citizens of Marietta had instructed him to tend r the hospital!, ties of that city to the Convention, and to urgo them to visit the site of their Alma Mater, if for only one day. On motion, yf Capt. John Milledge, the thank* of the Convention wore tendered tho ciflzons of Marietta for this kind invitation, and Wednesday waa designated as tho day on which it would bn accop’ed. On motion, tbo Committeo adjourned till ten o’clock Tuesday (this) morning, at which hour the resolutions reported by the Businoss Committeo will be tbe order of business.
