The friends and acquaintances of Mr. and Mrs. 8.0. Lindsay are requested to attend the funeral of the latter to day, (Friday,) at 2% p. m., from his residence. Oct. 8-ts New Advertisements. Asa general thing, it is best to “throw physic to the dogs,” but sometimes a lit tle of the right kind does a great deal of good, if it does not prevent a spell of sickness and save life. If any of our readers should be so unfortunate as to need physic, we would refer them to the advertioemeut of Messrs. Clark & Iver son, who, in addition to a lnrgo stock of drugs and medicines, have an excellent supply of all things usually kept in estab lishments of tho kind. Our planting friends, by reference to the advertisement of Col. John G. Win ter, will find where they can dispose of an article which has been an entire wasto on their farms. Those in debt to the old firm of John McGough & Cos., or to John McGougb, are referred to our advertising columns for information that may be valuable to them. We refer our readers to the advertise ment of Mr. James McPhillips, who ha3 jußt opened anew store, with anew stock of goods, in our city. It is an old saying, and a very true one, that a “new broom sweeps clean,” and wc have also noticed that new stores always sell very cheap and very good goods. Give them a call. Those tndebted to Hull & I3ussy are referred to their advertisement in another column. Rain at Last. Our heart was cheered, and the condi tion of our streets greatly improved yes terday, by a small sprinkling of rain, just enough to keep us in heart, and to prove the falsity of the prophecies of some wise-acres, that it couldn’t rain be fore the its departure. And speaking about that fiery tailed luminary, it is now at its greatest brilliancy, so those say who profess to know, and is going it with its tail curled towards the South. Take a good view of it on fair nights,—to the reflecting mind it affords much food for wholesome meditation. Dr. Beale’* Panorama. We had tho pleasure on Wednesday evening of witnessing the exhibition of Dr. Beale’s paintings illustrating the Niagara ltiver up to the falls, the Mam moth Cave in Kentucky, and Signor Vi valdi’s Marrionette Family. The paint ings are fine specimens of panoramic painting, aud nre extremely interesting to look upon. So well are the various eoenes delineated that one feels almost in reality on board the steamer Canada as sho hies on her journey upward to the falls. Tho crowning part of the exhibi tion was Signor Vivaldi’s family of dan cers, which far suppass anything of the kind before exhibited in our city. It is worth double the price of admission to witness the precision with which they are made to perform. The exhibition was altogether a very pleasant and profitable one. This afternoon at 2 o’clock, an enter tainment will bo given for the benefit of schoolchildren and the juveniles gener ally, and such other persons as are una ble to attend at night. Children admit ted at 15 cents. Death of J. J. Chaffin. It is with sincere regret that, we learn that Mr. Johnson J. Chaffin, of this city, died at Brownsville, Texas, a short time since, of yellow fever. lie contracted the disease on a steamboat, of which ho was the engineer, and died in a few min utes after landing, before medical aid could be procured. Mr. Chaffin has been long and favorably known to many of our citizens, as ho has beon an engineer on the Chattahoochee river from the time whereof the memory of the oldest in habitant runneth not to the contrary. — The urbanity of bis manners, and his gentlemanly deportment, won for him many warm friends, all of whom most sincerely sympathize with his wife and children, now here, in their sad bereave ment. We understand he was a member of the Masonio Fraternity in this place, and as wo suppose they will offer a suita ble tribute to his worth and character, we forbear further comment. Sabbath School Celebration. On Saturday the 10th inst., the several Sabbath Schools of this city will have a grand Celebratiion and Pic-Nic. which will doubtless be one of the most inter esting and beautiful demonstrations ever mado in Columbus. We understand that the celebration was planned by the Meth odist Sabbath Schools, and they will meet first in front of tho Methodist Churoh at o’clock, a. m.; but they have invited the Schools of all the other denominations to meet them there at 9 a. m., where the general reception will take place—Hon. J’. H. Colquitt, Superintendent of Mctho- Jist School No. 1, inaugurating the gen eral reception. After songs and an ad dress by Master Thomas Grimes, the pro cession will move to Camp Montgomery, accompanied by a band of music, where after prayer by the Rev. J. H. D CTOti ’ and the regular address by Hon. G. E. Thomas, the Pic-Nio will be served. This will bo followed by music and impromtu speeches. James M. Hughes, Marshal of the day. A turn-out such as all the Sabbath Schools of this city can make, with the assistance and talents of the gentlemen selected to participate, cannot fail to be a most pleasing and beautiful exhibition. —Enquirer of yesterday. Doggish Affair. We don’t like to say anything against dogs, for, as a general thing, thoy are the most honest and trustworthy of any 1 portion of the community—that is, a j good, honest, decent, well behaved, moral j dog, that don’t run about o’nights, and demeans himself properly. Wo would . not be dogmatical about dogs keeping within their owner's premises, if they would behave themselves wheu they go out on the streets for a moonlight prome nade, or to take a gas light view of our j city, ala Foster, of New York, but we do j protest against their going in great gangs about the streets, making night hideous with their howls and growls, barks apd snarls; for not being satisfied with exer cising the gifts which nature has bestow ed upon them, they encroach on thoso of the bears and lions, and “growl and fight,” as well as “bark and bite.” Night before last they appeared to be holding an indignation meeting at tho crossings of Oglethorpe and St. Clair streets, which, after several angry speeches by various members of the meeting, culminated in a general fight, in which all appeared to take a hand, until a policeman cams along, and exercising bis prerogative, and offering some very striking argu ments of the impropriety of their conduct, sent the whole batch kiting to their homes. Now, what we would suggest is this : let a dog pound be erected, and any dog, be he “my Lord Mayor’s” big surly mastiff, or “my Lady’s” pet poodle, found in the street after a certain hour at night, Ist him be incarcerated therein, nor suf fered to come thence until a fine of one dollar is paid for his indiscretion, in default of which payment the life of the offender to pay tho forfeit of the violated law. Or, a shorter way to get at tho root of the evil, would be to impose a tax of one or two dollars on each dog kept in the city. No man would then keep a dog that was not good for something, and all good dogs conduct themselves with pro priety. Almost a Disaster. Yesterday a horse attached to a buggy standing in front of Ellis & Mathis’ auc tion store, on Broad street, became frightened, and breaking loose from his fastening, dashed off at a tearing pace, turning the corner at Barnard’s and taking down toward Greenwood & Gray’s warehouse, threading his way among an innumerable number of cotton wagons which thronged the streets, occasionally coming in collision with some of their wheels, and at length coming up against a tree, wheu the swingletree broke, re lieving the frightened beast of this in cumbrance to his speed, of which he took advantage, and went on his way at a highly accelerated pace. We learn no damage was sustained by the buggy fur ther than the breaking of the swingletree and the horse running away with the traces. Better Stay at Home. If the gosling boys and the spoony young men who go to exhibitions for the purpose of making a noise, thereby des troying the interest that others might feel in them, think it looks smart or well-bred in the eyes of any 3eosible person, they are very much mistaken. If they have not sense or refinement of taste to appreciate the beautiful—yea, more, if their tastes differ from others, the policy that good breeding would dictate would be for them to withdraw if they did not like tho exhi bition, and go no more. Tho very best evidence that a boy is wrong either in the head or in the heart, is to see him annoy ing others for his own amusement. ALABAMA EDUCATIONAL JOUHNAL. Till] Alabama Educational Association, at its Third Anuual Meeting, held in Marion, Perry county, resolved to establish an Educational Journal of high order. The Association was unani mously of the opinion, that tho educational inter ests of tho State imperatively demand a periodical to serve as a general repository of matters con nected with the progress of education in our own and othor States, to assist in the development of talent latent in the Teacher’s profession, to serve as a medium of communication between them selves and tho people, to aid in tho management of our system of public instruction, and to give shape and tangibility to tho masses of thought which have no other means of expression. It was satisfied that such a Journal would b© sustained by thoso interested directly and indirectly in the great cause of education, and proceeded at once to elect a Resident Editor aud a board of Associate Editors, aud to give instructions as to the plan and outline features of the Journal. In accordance with these, a Journal, styled as above, is published monthly, consisting of thirty two octavo pages of matter, exclusive of adver tisements, in pamphlet form, covered, stitched and cut. The paper is fine, and the printing done in excellent style. An edition of two thou sand is issued. The first number dates October 1, 1858. The pages of the Journal contain: Contributions from the Associate Editor; Contributions from other eminent Educators and Writers; Choice articles from similar Publications in other States; Choice articles on goneral, Literary and Scien tific Subjects, selected from other periodicals, both European and American; Discussions of topics relating to our Public School System; Accounts of Educational Movements In dln.ront sections of the State; General Educational Intelligence; Kditorial Miscellany, Book Notices, Ac., Ac., It is not intended to confine the matter of the Journal strictly to educational subjects, but to admit articles of a general literary cast. It will he observed that tho Journal is not a private enterprise, but is issued under tho auspices of tho State Associatiou and conducted by a Board of Editors. Its character and permanency are thus established, and subscribers may therefore remit with entire confidence. Subscriptions sl, invariably in advance. Any person procuring five subscribers and re mitting five dollurs, will receive one copy free of for ten subscribers, sent in like manner,either of tho works in the catalogue of “Books recom mended to Teachers” by the Superintendent of Education, will bo forwarded in addition to the al l’or twenty-five subscribers, “Barnard’s Ameri can Journal of Education”—a largo work, publish ed at three dollars per annum—will be sent, with a copy of the “Alabama .Educational Journal.
