The A**oCi«tail Preaa Agent At Mobile, is respectfully informed that the readers of our paper are not at all in terested in the game of Base Ball, or any Itnatebes that may be made in Alabama, jr,j we think the wires can be better em ployed than the transmitiug of such puerili ties. Selali. Complaints. We have daily complaints from our city subscribers, that borrowers and stealers are plenty, and they can hardly get a sight of our paper in consequence. Now, all we have to say is that it is much more business like to take and pay for a paper even if it don't suit you in politics or religion, than to borrow or 3- 1 another persons paper— don't rou think so. County Court. We omitted, iu our County Court report to include the name of State vs. Bob Jobn son, who was charged with burglary, and committed to jail for trial; and yesterday, Judge McLaws sent Tom Capers to the tame place, charged with committing larceny from the house, and that ended the chapter of both the Courts. - ,♦* I'rrcdui'n'n Itlircnu.

On yesterday, in company with M. >S. Whalau, Esq., Agent of Bureau for ltich mond, Columbia, Lincoln, and Wilkes coun 'i Mr. ,1. K. W ner, the Superintendent 0 Colored Schools, and Mr. M. V. Calvin, Superintendent now, we believe, of all the Schools in the city, we visited a large num !*r of th'- schools, both white and colored, md we regret exceedingly that time would tot allow our party to visit, all the schools of the city. There are eighteen public schools in this Mj—nine of the n white and nine o( them lored — one of the latter only being taught -! a colored man, who two and a half year® ago did not know his letters, hut who o mw, while be teaches, studying algebra C'biie classics, under the auspices of the Boar ] of Education and the care and super *j,n Superintendent Calvin.

Superintendent Calvin, in his interest in education, seems to ns to he wrapped up completely, and docs not know such a word as fail ; but day and night his mind is active iu the discharge of his various duties, and in leaving nothing undone that will elevate the standard of education, and advance the interest, not only of the white schools, but of the colored schools—he, not knowing “any variation or shadow of turning" from bis duties to the one or to the other. This is as it should be. The children ol this State —of this whole country, are sadly neglected as to education ; but the fact is patent to every observant tnan or woman, and while there is, we hope, anew era dawning upon our people, there is yet much work to do by nil friends of the cause of education. Super intendent Calvin is in favor of the introduc tion ol vocal music in all the public schools, and will, as soon ns practicable, introduce vocal music in his own school—the Augusta Free School—over which he and the accom plished Mrs. Jones are jointly Superintend ents. Mr. Superintendent Warner, of the Colored Mission School established, made a report to us, on the 3d of April, as follows : "The American Missonary Association, whose Headquarters are at 63 John street, New York, has under it-i care ome 900 pupils in the city of Augusta. “Twenty two thousand dollars has beeu spent iu the schools, and a large amount for food and clothing, and rent in supplying immediate necessities of the poor. * * “This Society has 111 Teachers and Mis sionaries in Georgia,” etc., etc. We visited all these schools yesterday, and it aflords ns extreme pleasure to say that we were never more gratified in our life at the admirable conduct of the schools, and the astonishing aptitude of the colored children present, to say nothing of the few adults who attend (by snatching a few hours from the cares of life), to endeavor to improve their minds. We found that the colored schools used the “National Series of Text Books,’ and the white schools the "American* Senes of Text Books.’’ Vocal music has been introduced into all the colored schools, and is a success so far, for we found the children enjoyed the exer cise very much. We intended to individual ize some of the most promising, but find our notice extended already too far. We shall, therefore, reserve for another article and another day what wo may have to snv in regard to the school houses, etc., and shall endeavor to call the attention of the people to the great need of enlarged school houses for the white children, greater ventila tion and better appointments-and fixtures.

COTTON.—The market is very tluliand quiet, and although there has been a slight decline in Liverpool, it does not seem to have affected our homo markets, probably from the well known fact that the supply of Cotton now on hand iu this country,|it is betiored, is too small to supply full time work in our own manufactories.

The following is an extract from Donnel ly’s invective against Elihu R. Washburn : If there bo in our midst one low, sordid, vulgar soul ; one barren mediocre intelli gence ; one heart callous to every kindly sentiment, and to every generous emotion ; one tongue leprous with slander ; one mouth which is like unto a den of foul beasts, giv ing forth deadly odors; if there bo here one character which, while blotched and spotted, yet craves, nnd rants, and blackguards like a prostitute ; if there be here one bold and empty bellowing demagogue, it is the gentle man from Illinois.

This evening’s Star has the following : “Impeachment stock fluctuates hour by hour. To-day it is shaky. Why, is not demonstrated. The President and his counsel are confident of his acquittal.
