It works yell, and cannot be stolen for firewood, as the planks were.—We are indebted to the pursers of the steamships San Jacinto, Tona- ivanda and Wyoming, for files of late North- tin papers.—The loss by the late fire at the Custom House was very light—Gilbert, now in jail awaiting transportation to tbe Penitentiary for swindling Columbus n etchants, was a Captain in the United States army during the late war.—Four flakes of snow fell yesterday; they had evidently got lost. —The new shed over the Augusta wharf is rapidly being completed.— A morning paper makes a funny statement regarding the chapel of the Sisters of Mercy: first it says the foundation has been laid, and tLat the work has progressed no further than that; next it would have us believe the edi- fice completed, as it says “the building is torty teet fron and ninety feet deep.” After that it goes on to say that it will be forty irthigh:and lastly, it tells us the walls are Eighteen inches thick. First, no walls; then nils eighteen inches thick.—Won’t Mr. Lieutenant Hoag* be kind enough to make u report on the. Thunderbolt road tragedy; and. for the edification of the “loll” public, ull ns that the white men were all armed to the teeth, anti the negroes had no weapons; uud that the white men, in their great haste u shoot the negroes shot themselves? It would he an edilyiug document for puritaui- ,ul Radicals at the North.—One of the ex- officio .Justices of the Peace, appointed by Bullock, holds the opinion that a married woman, no difference how much property she may hold in her own right, cannot be sued.—Business was dull among the Magis trates yesterday.—Beecher’s forthcoming "Life of Christ” will probably be nsed by Radical preachers in place of the one found in the New Testament.—We hope our merchants will make another strong effort to secure the enforcement, by the Secretary of the Treasury, of the Welles' contract for re moving the obstructions from the Savannah river.—We are ready to receive our Christmas turkey at any time.—There will be a grand r view of the Police Force on Sunday after noon.—Miss Charlotte Thompson, we under stand, thinks of retiring from the stage. This may be her last season.—If he can come next week. J oe Jefferson will succeed her as the ‘.Star'’ at our Theatre; if his engagements prevent his coming next week Mr. and Mrs. Horry Watkins will probably be brought ont. They have a budget of new plays, Foul Plaif and After Dark included.—The Hebrew fair will close this evening at sunset, and re-open at the same time to-morrow evening. The Theatre.—We know not why nor wherefore, but for some reason or other the P&y,of The granger was produced at the Theatre last evening/ It is one of those things, (we can call it by no better name,) 'Winch. have, in an incomprehensible inanner kept place upon the stage, with nothing whatever to recommend them. It is weak and trteshy, and with no opportunity for display Two Houses Burned.—We understand that there were two houses destroyed by the ne groes at Mrs. Marshall’s Woodlawn Plantat ion, ' it the Ogeechee road, on Monday night last. The dwelling house, and what was originally the overseer’s house, standing in close prox imity to each other, were burned to the ground. They had only been empty a few days, and being without any one to look after them, the negroes could not resist so good an opportunity to indulge in their incendiary' propensities. - ■ c’hrist Chuech, Macon.—The following item, from the Macon Journal <t’ Messenger, will be of interest to our Protestant Episco pal readers. That paper says: “It affords us Pleasure to state that Bishop Beckwith has signified his acceptance of Christ Church as the Cathedral Church of the diocese of Geor gia—it having been formally tendered him hy the Wardens and Vestry thereof. The services of this Church, hereafter, will be solely under the direction and eharge of the Bishop, when he is in the city.” Stole Some Clothing.—George Houston "toted” off’ Elizabeth Miller’s wardrobe, without her knowledge or consent. Eliza beth procured a warrant for his arrest; and he was taken np by officer Payton, on a war- raut issued by Justice P. M. Russell, Jr. Houston gave bail for his appearance at the *‘ext term of the City Conrt. Sent to Jail.—Charles Robinson, a gentle- wan of color, who was in want of an over- coat to protect his • noble person from the opieai by its stupidity, and who did not repent having sat through its prosy length. The principal character “Mrs. Haller," was impersonated by Miss Charlotte Thomp son; and of course, she acted that part well, as she does everything else. But it is a play in which she was sadly out of place, and Fanchon, Little Barefoot or Ifigomar would have, proved lar more attractive to theatre-going people. Mr. Sntton as “The Stranger” was misanthropical enough to give one a cold chill for a week to come. Mr. Harrison did “ Peter” up to life. “ Francis” is the only other character besides “Mrs. Haller" of which anything can be made. This part was not well cast last evening. The other char acters were evidently thrown in by the au thor to fill np with, and no actors ever expect to make anything out of them. .Miss Katie Gilbert, whom we are pleased to see on the boards again after a severe in disposition, executed a very pretty lancy dance and was loudly applauded. After having sat through 'the Wronger the audience, which, by the way, was an excel lent one, was quite ready for something live ly. The Married Hake came very' opportune as the after piece, and was heartily enjoyed. Miss Alice Harrison, who has not appeared for some time, came out as “ Mrs. Trictrac ” and “Capt. Fitz Henry,” which characters she acted to perfection. Mr. Harrison took the part of “ Mr. Flighty,” which ho did np in his usually excellent manner, and the play went off admirably. This evening Miss Thompson will have a grand farewell benefit, and we bespeak for her such a house as she has not had yet One of the best of American actresses, a lady of Southern birth and education, Miss Thompson deserves at the hands of this com munity a liberal acknowledgment of her great talents. We want to see the house crowded to-night, and urge upon onr readers to be present, both to enjoy themselves and to encourage the enterprising manager to continue in his efforts to keep Savannah sup plied with a place of public amusement Miss Thompson will appear this evening in The Serious Family and in The Little Treasure, two plays which are great favorites with the public. Hulling blasts of winter, found one to suit Buu, at the store of Charles Rosheen, near >Be Market, and at once took possession of ■Be article without so much as inquiring the \mee. He was afterwards arrested by officer "Ruffman, and committed to jail by Justice Hart. Florida Oysters.—We noticed in Wednes day's paper the fact that Messrs. T. S. Jones 4 Co. were about to establish themselves in tbe oyster business, bringing those delicious Bivalves from Apalachicola. We had an ocu lar demonstration that they had commenced I'isiness by receiving from them yesterday a “ue sample of Gulf oysters. Lost at Sea.—Captain Melvin, of the hark John Eills, which arrived here yesterday, forty-nine days from Antwerp, reports that °_n the 29th of October last, the bark expe rienced a heavy gale from the Southwest; and while engaged in furling the inner jib, a seaman, named George Green, fell overboard, and was drowned. Rankruptcy. —Henry Clay Roberts and John J L Roberts, of Warrenton, Georgia, yester day filed a petition, asking to be allowed to take the benefit of the bankrupt law. The Hebrew Fair.—The Hebrew Fair at St. Andrew’s Hall will close to-morrow night, and we urge upon our readers to visit it du ring the time which yet remains, and do alTthat they can to make it a success. The Fair is not given for any sectarian purposes, but to raise funds for the erection of a col lege building for the Hebrew Collegiate In stitute, where children of all denominations may be furnished with a good education. We catfnot increase onr educational facilities to too great an extent; the more schools and colleges there are, and the greater the advan tages we provide for the education of the coming generation, the better. At all Chris tian fairs the Hebrew citizens have been pres ent and contributed towards making them successful. They deserve a return in the shape of liberal patronage to a fair originated under their auspices, but for no sectarian purpose. We hope that the fair will be crowded during to-day and to-morrow even ing, and that a goodly sum may be realized for the benefit of the Institute. Small Business.—We take the following paragraph from the Republican of yesterday: ‘ Will the Morning News please inform its readers by what authority the name of the ‘Republican’ was stricken from the official proceedings of the Germania Fire Company, as they appeared in its columns yesterday ? We feel sure that neither the editor nor pro prietor of that paper has any connection with so small a business." The proprietor of the Morning News, while he appreciates the implied compliment to Col. Thompson and himself, would, in justice to this paper, and in refutation of the intend ed slur upon Mr. Wilfong, its able and ener getic local editor, Btate that the “ official pro ceedings” alluded to in the above article, (a number of resolutions), were, by request, re written by Mr. Wilfong, and as he did not insert the name of the Republican in them he had no occasion to strike it out. It was not mentioned in tlw original copy, and no re quest was made that it should be put in bis. Mayor’s Court. Hon. E. C. Andebson, Mayor, Presiding. Thursday, December JO, 1868. The Mayor s Conrt was opened this morn ing with due form and ceremony, with Lien- tenant Charlie Bell, .acting as Marshal, to in troduce the sinners to His'Honor’s presence. The police officers were present, all dressed Improved Car Coupling—Scarcely a day passes but the press throughout the country have to record an accident by which an en gineer, a conductor, or a brakeman, receives severe injuries, and sometimes loses his life in merely attempting to couple or uncouple a car. An ingenious, yet simple improvement to the ordinary buffer, invented and patented by H. W. Boifeuillet, Esq., a native of this city, and an engine® on the Central Railroad, has completely obviated the danger hereto fore incurred by those whose place it is to perform the duty. In the improvement the buffer is of the usual form, with a moveable lip so arranged that the links can be elevated to suit cars of different heights without the person going between the cars. By a simple self-acting arrangement the pin can be kept up so that the cars will couple themselves. This valuable invention has already received the endorsement of prominent railroad men, and its application will save many limbs and lives. The Debate Wednesday Night.—The late hour of closing the debate, and the press of other matter upon our columns, prevented ns from speaking of the pleasant evening passed at the debate of the young men con nected with the Library' Association. The Trinity Church room was completely filled with an intelligent and appreciative audience, whose wrapt attention to the various speak ers, and frequent applause, evidenced their pleasure. It was a decided success, and the Association need feel proud of the result, which we are assured will fill their room to repletion whenever they. may call together the public on a similar occasion. By a reso lution introduced at the close of the debate, we see that Capt. Hale has been invited and will deliver an address to his fellow members and the public upon electricity and its modi fication, with a touch upon “ Flanchette.” When delivered we predict a crowded house. The Cotton States Lp'e Insurance Com ply. The books of subscription to the capital stock of the above company are now open at the office of Messrs. R. H- Footman & Co., in the Exchange building. The com pany was chartered by the Legislature at its last session, and among the names of the in corporators we find those of the leading bu siness men of Macon. The capital stock is $500,000, with the privilege to increase it to the sum of $2,000,000, and the charter re quires that a deposit of $200,000 shall he made with the Comptroller General of the State as a guarantee fond for the security of the policy holders. That the company will be a success, none who know of the immense amount of capital invested in life insurance throughout this and other States can have the slightest doubt The Casting op Guano along the Streets. We must enter our protest, and ask the City Council to provide by law for some dif ferent manner of carrying guano through the streets. Yesterday, for hours, there was a vile stench for hours along the Bay, caused by this nuisance of carrying guano on drays. The bags appeared to be defective, the sub stance dropped in the street, and the horri ble sickening stench filled the air, leading one to believe that an earthquake had east one of the islands of the Pacino into onr midst An ordinance should be adopted Drovidins for the transportation of this article of commerce through the streets in close covered wagons. -•* up in their new brass buttons, and the Clerk, book in hand, stood ready to assist all who wanted to “cuss;" while the Chief Detective bestowed Ins smiles upon all, and reporters looked happy, by reason of a full docket. ft Edward Mimis, a boy in blne, ; .of.rtheSf ^‘ldt. ns have peace^ persuasion, was arrested on Wednesday night, while acting in a suspi cions manner under the bluff. He had camped out on a wharf, and his actions caused those who observed them to believe that he was making preparations to “shuffle off Ithis mortal coil.” The' policeman thought that he was a soldier, who had taken French leave of absence from his com pany, and. arrested him. The Mayor or dered that Edward be sent to the United States Barracks, for the officers there to take cognizance of his case. James Hadden was encircled by the whis- ► key ring on Wednesday night. TTis mind became so confused that he lay down in the street, under the impression that he was at home and that his bed was before him. James was so dead gone, that the policeman who found him was forced to obtain a wagon to carry him to the Guard Honse. The Bird of Liberty drooped its wings and shed a tear as James was led away under sentence to pay a fine of three dollars, and itis carriage hire. Theodore - Gibson, a colored boy whose moral education has been sadly neglected, threw a brick which struck a storekeeper near the market, in the side. The store keeper said that Theodore cursed him, and he gave the boy a kick, that he ran off a short distance, then turned and threw the missile. His Honor did not like to commit the boy upon such testimony, and the case was held over for investigation by the Chief Detective. The boy was afterwards sent to the Barracks to be locked up for a few hours, as a punish ment for cursing in the public streets. The above case created quite a stir among the negroes around the market, who thought the boy ought not to have been arrested. One of them, named Ben Follins, acted.in a very disorderly manner, and tried to incite the crowd to resist the officers, which led to his arrest. He was ordered to pay a’ fine of ten dollars or go to jail for thirty days. James Demere, another negro, interfered in the Bame affair, and was very violent. When the officers attempted to clear the mar ket he refused to leave, and afterwards tried to create an excitement in the Btreet. He was armed with a six-barreled revolver, which he flourished in a threatening manner, and wanted to put an end to the existence of -the policemen. He was ordered to pay a fine of ten dollars or go .to jail for sixty days. Scipio Patterson was arrested for firing off a pistol in the street. The witness against • him was not present and his case was con tinued until to-morrow morning. William Mitchell and George Wilkie, two gay troubadours of the African persuasion, went out on a serenading party on Wednes day night, and by way of amusement they had a fisticuff at the corner of. Bull and Broughton streets. They were told to go and fight no more. The Justice of the Peace Question.—The question as to whether or not there shall be an election for Justices of the Peace held in January next, or not, having excited a great ‘ilish be- deal of talk in certain circles, we pub] low the opinion of one of Bullock’s attaches. Since the letter to which this is an answer was "written, the Ordinary has concluded not to order the election; but the views set forth in this answer will be of interest. The letter is as follows: Atlanta, December 7th, 1868. Philip 31. Russell, Fsq.: Sir—In the absence of the Governor, I have the honor to acknowledge'the receipt of yonr communication of the 3d inst. After stating that you are informed that the Ordi nary of Chatham county intends to order an election for Justices of the Peace in the va rious districts of the county, you say: “I desire to know if any persons who are not disfranchised under the Constitution should be elected, will you commission them; and, has the Ordinary, under the law, the right to order said election ?” Giving, of cjm-se, my own views only to your inquiries, to the first, I would say, the Governor probably would not commission persons so elected, for the reason that, while the late Constitutional Convention, held in Atlanta, framed an ordinance authorizing an election to be held on the 20th, 21st, 22d and 23d of April last, “ for Governor, mem bers of Congress, members of the General Assembly, and all other officers to be elected as provided in the Constitution,” the ordinance expressly excepted Justices of the Peace, and provided as to them that tjiey “shall be elected at such time as shall he provided for by the first General Assembly, until otherwise provided by law." The first General Assembly did not provide any time for holding elections for Justices of the Peace; therefore none is fixed, and no provision made by law for holding such elections. I would add, I presume the Legislature will, at 'its coming session, provide by law for holding elections throughout the State for Justices of the Peace, one to each G. M. District. To your second inquiry, the answer is ob vious. Certainly no person who is obnox ious to the.third section of the fourteenth article of the Constitution of the United States, can he commissioned. A person to be eligible to the office of Justice of the Peace must, in addition to the qualifications re quired in the said third section, have all the .qualifications required by our State Consti tution and laws. Very respectfully, H. H. ‘ Interior Cotton Presses.—The Macon Tel egraph makes inquiry after the cotton press which was to be sent to and erected in that city. We understand that the one put up in Augusta has not been doing much, and it may be that the erection of others has been abandoned, bnt we are not authoritatively in formed on tbe subject, t % . jy .- jRoABD^oF Aldebmen —The mercantile interests of the city ought to be well looked after by the Board of Aldermen now. There are. nine jUdermen representing the mercan tile interests, two the manufacturing and one the professional An editor should he added to the list. Watebs. Lighting the City.—Conncil proposes to offer indneements to parties to come here and establish new gas works, ancl light the city with coal gas. 'Whether this is done or not, we hope that when a new contract is made it will he for having the street lamps lit during the whole night—and every night in the year, This practice of having the lamps put ont when the moon shines is nothing but moonshine. It leads to their being kept out most of the time; and to the city being in darkness when light is most needed. Condition of Mu. John Quint.—Mr. John Quint, one of the wounded in the murder ous attack hy negroes upon the Special Police, on Thunderbolt road, last Saturday night, was much better yesterday, and suffered no pain. His physician, however, entertains no hope of his recovery. The Catholics and the Public Schools.— The report of the Committee of the Board of Education upon the application of citizens of the Roman Catholic faith, for a division of the public school fond, will he published at length in the Morning News of to-morrow. Cotton for Liveb*ool. —Messrs. Wilder & Fullarton yesterday cleared the ship Scream er, Capt Young, for Liverpool, with a cargo consisting of 4,024 bales of Upland Cotton, weighing 1,902,683 pounds, and valued at $456,563 16. Cleared.—The steamship General Barnes, Capt Morton, cleared for New York yester day, heavily loaded with freight In addition to other merchandi^, she had on board 990 bales of Upland Cotton and 71 bales Sea Island. Detained.—'fhe steamship Montgomery, which arrived here on Wednesday evening, was detained in New York hay by a severe and blinding snow storm- She also expe rienced strong head winds during the entire passage, “Tall oaks from little acorns grow. Large stream9 from little fountaina.flow. - ’ Seven years ago the Plantation Bitters were bnt little known. To-day there is not a nook or comer of our land where they are not found and used. The sale has reached tUs enormous number of five millions of- bot- ties annually, and it is rapidly increasing.

FiRlors Morning Sews : In your paper of yesterday there was an article which reflected severely upon the Skidaway Shell Road Company. It appears to have been written with a purpose, and that purpose was—what V By showing that the expenses of the road are light and its receipts heavy, it would tend to cause one who had stock to sell to hold it high; or by arousing a crusade against the road, depreciate the value of its stock, and enable one who might wish to purchase to do so at a low figure; and thus a “comer” might be made in Skidaway stock. Now, Messrs. Editors, if the citizens wanted the road completed to Skidaway, why did they not, when the books were open, subscribe the money necssary for that purpose? Or, if they wnnt it completed now why not &sk for the re-opening of the books, and subscribe to secure. that end ? And as re gards the profits of the road, I am not so sure that it will be of any profit to stock holders for a very long time. The recent dry season has demonstrated the fact, that the road,like cotton, is affected by drought; that its being serviceable for any length of time is dependent upon the frequency of the rains. During the past two months, which have been particularly dry, the shell has been ground to powder, and blown away by the high winds; so that the profits of the road and more too, will be required to have it properly shelved again. It is very possible that a call may be made upon stockholders for this purpose, rather than suffer which they may favor an increase instead of a re duction of the rates of toll The people complain of large pieces of shell being thrown upon the road. Messrs. Editors, as the shell on the road has now to be renewed, and immediately, it may be that oysters, clams, lobsters and even concks,” may have to be pat upon it, trusting to the numerous wagons which pass over the road to grind them into proper shape. It prom ises to be a long day before the shell road will pay another dividend at this rate, and its profits will not be so great as generally supposed. The parties who, to sell their stock at a high figure, speak so loudly of the enormous dividends declared by the com pany, do so only because they are aware of the state of things which exists in reality, and want to get rid of it ere they are called upon to assist in paying the expenses of the road. If they have shared its profits in the past, they should assist to bear its burthens in the future; at least such is the opinion of A Free Thinker. HOTEL ARRIVALS.

Thursday. December 10, 1868. Cotton.—At the close of onr last report, the staple showed a dull and drooping tendency in prices, buyers entering the market only when concessions from ask ing prices were made. This dull state of affairs ex isted until last Tuesday, when an active demand sprang up for foreign account; but holders, at the same time, were instructed by their friends in the interior to withdraw their stocks from the market until better prices could be obtained. This caused a small business to be done, at higher figures. Since that time, the accounts from the Liverpool and New York markets, showing a better feeling and higher prices, have induced buyers to operate to some extent, taking such lots as were offered at comparatively cheap rates. The rapid advance demanded by holders has given ua, at the close of our review, a quiet, but firm market, buyers being unrolling to meet the views of the Sellers. We quote: Middling, nominally 23% @23% . Low middling ,...23 @23% Good ordinary —22%@22% We give the following resume of the week: Friday.—The market opened with some inquiry, bnt was irregular throughout the day. Market closed quiet, with middling 23 %c. Sales, 691 bales. Saturday.—The market opened with fair inquiry, but much caution was used by buyers, who took such lots as could be obtained at comparatively small figures. Market closed quiet, with middling at 23@ 23 %c. Sales, 553 bales. Monday.—The market opened irregular and unset tled, and continued so most part of the day. The se lection of offering stock was poor. Market closed un settled, with middling at 23c. Sales, 759 bales. Tuesday.—The inquiry to-day has been good, with small sales. Offering stock light. Advices from New York caused more firmness in our market, which closed steady, with middling at 23c. Sales, 408 bales. Wednesday.—Market opened quiet; offering stock very light. Advices of an advance in the New York caused more firmness in onr market, which closed with middling at 23%c asking, offering 23%c—none to be had at the latter figure. Sales, 926 bales. • Thursday.—Market opened to-day with very good inquiry. Advices from New York and Liverpool caused onr market to close firm, with middling at 23%@23%c. Lower grades much neglected. The following were the sales of the day: 5 bales at 24%c, 2 at 24. 89 at 23%, 118 at 23%, 57 at 23%, 364 at 23%, 284 at 23, 92 at 22%, 22 at 22, 26 at 21, and 4 at 20- total, 1,203 bales. Sea Island.—Inquiry light* Sales, i2 bags at 68c, and 17 at 62—total. 29 bags. Sea Islands.—There has been a moderate but steady demand during the week, and the sales amount to 130 bags, at about our last quotations, which we renew at foot. The transactions have been principally in the lower grades, at 65@65c, taken chiefly by Norther buyers; but there is also a fair inquiry for medium fine and fine, for English and French orders. The receipts for the week are 220 bags, against 527 bags at tbe same period last year, bnt advices from the country are such as to cause rather a lower than higher range of estimates. In Carolina it is believed that at least one-half of the crop has already been received; in Florida, one-half to three-fourths, whi e a smaller proportion of the Georgia crop has been sent in for want of means of getting it out. We quote: * Fine, ^ lb, asking price $1 00 Medium fine, sales at 80@90 Medium, “ Co@75 Common ** 53@60 The receipts at this port since the 3d inst. amount to 12,946 bales upland, of which 15,374 were received per Central Railroad, 1,458 per Atlantic and Gulf Rail road, 633 from landings on the Savannah river, and 220 bales from Florida- The exports for the same time have been 4,034 bales npland and 149 bales sea island, of which 2,203 bales upland were shipped to Liverpool, 3,635 bales upland and 149 bales sea island to New York, 529 bales upland to Philadelphia, and to Baltimore 520 bales.
