I After the decision in the Evans ease Ijesterday afternoon, Judge Hook an- Imnced that Chief of Police, Wm. C.

Immediately ■thereafter the prosecution requested the Court to prohibit the publication of tlie fel testimony, and it was incidentally dleged that some of it was too indecent for fe public eye. The object in referring to it this matter is to give notice that '* io not acknowledge the right of Courts or counsel to prevent teporters Item making truthful reports of nidence, and that, hereafter, we shall xer- W out own discretion as to whether we Tom, Dick and Harry to give, ’rtally, jaundiced reporfs, or whether we Mve a competent reporter on the to report everything correctly. h Mr, Evans'case the Ku Klux organ 'berately mislead the public.

At five o'clock yesterday afternoon, .Juttioee PHrtMaT and took their aoate at the after twlno preliminary business Justice Phiniz.y, the committing Magistrate, read the following decision: It becomes my 4pty to tidui.tho responsi bility of Anally deciding this case, as tho committing magistrate, my worthy colleague having disagreed with me as to tho offence- According to section 4,612 of the new Code, if there are only two Justices presiding, tho original Justice shall determine all. ■psestione where the CVeri h m»t agreed. That there was no wilful murder in tho killing of Red, but there was an offence against tho laws of tho State, both Justices agree. Justice Reynolds holds that, ac cording to the Code of Georgia, 4,226, the defendant in the above stated case was only guilty of involuntary manslaughter. Myself differing in opinion, adjudged that he should bo committed for manslaughter nlono, under section 4,221 of the new Code. While I believe that have conscientiously dis charged the duty imposed on me by the functions of my office, I can not but regret that 1 differ with my colleague; and 1 now say, as Ido honestly and sincerely believe, that be has not only acted honestly and fairly, but with a conscientious conviction on his mind that he has done right. While I differ with him, 1 apprec iato his character and feelings, as I know his desire is to do justice to oil men. Be it, therefore, ordered by the Court, that the defendant, Charles Evans, be com mitted for the offence of manslaughter. After the reading of Justice Phinizy’s decision, Justice Reynolds gave, verbally> his reasons (or dissent. The Court announced that Lieutenant Evans would be permitted to give -bail in the sum of $3,000. The bail will be promptly given as soon as the papers can be drawn up. Many of the friends of law and order were very much disposed to grumble at the result of the ten days’ inves tigation at first, but when they took into consideration the fact that the friends of the disorderly citizens who caused the difficulty would probably take the case before the Grand Jury, where the examination would be ex parte, and where the faithful police man would have no voice, and where the indictment might be for murder, they arc well satisfied, willing for Evans to go before a jury of his countrymen. A Day in llie (Jounlry. Among the good things of this life we rank getting out of the heat, dust, noise and filth of the city, into the freshness and quiet of the country. The tired eyes, aching with the sight of bricks and mortar, rest and delight in the verdure and brightness of nature. A secluded nook in the still woods, a grassy plot, and nothing to do but lie and rest, dream and imagine, is ono of the luxu ries of life. There is nothing which recu" perales the shattered nerves and weary brain like it. Only those who are cooped up in the city can appreciate the delights of coun try life. When you want to rest good, go to the country to difit. Homicide. On the 14th instant a quarrel arose be tween Newton J. Pugh and John T. Arnold, at the distillery of O. Arnold, about four miles from Milledgeville, in which Pugh was shot in the left breast twice. He died in a short time. The reports that we hear are so conflicting that we are left in doubt as to who was to blame. Mr. Pugh was about thirty-two years of age, and Arnold about eighteen—son of. Obadiah Arnold, Sheriff of Baldwin county. Pugh leaves two children. Perseverance. Not long ago a young Romeo sallied out one moonlight eve with his guitar, to sere nade his Juliet, who lives in a large frame house in th<; rear of the ——— hotel. His attentions were as disagreeable as his voice was discordant. The consequence was that whilst in the midst of "Look out upon tho stars, my love, And shame them with thine eyes,” the contents of a slop bucket were emptied upon his head from the balcony above. I'his throwing of cold water upon tho musician caused him to cease his dulcet strains for that night ; but the night following he was back at his post, with an umbrella spread over his head, and his music in full play. We understand the inamorata has succumbed to so much devotion and pertinacity, and is soon to be. married to her musical lover.

Now, we only need one that can be used as a veloco pede, a steam fire engine, or a fashionable travelling trunk, • -&-• - Fatal Affray—A Policeman Wounded. —Between ten and eleven o’clock, we were attracted by the reports of fire arms in the direction of the junction of Whitehall and Peachtree streets. We found many negroes and a few white persons in groups on the streets, listening to highly excited narrators of the shooting affair. From tho Deputy Marshal wo learn that a very boisterous negro was making himself very obnoxious to a crowd of his color which had gathered on tho railroad near the National Hotel. -At the request of many of the crowd, this negro was arrested by the police and started for the lock-up. The arresting force and their prisoner had proceeded but a short distance, when they were set upon by a party of negroes, crying, “Go for ’em ; let’s have him.” Pistols were discharged and missiles hurled. The police finally managed to conduct the prisoner to the guardhouse. It was then ascertained that one of their number —Mr. Thomas—was severely wounded in the thigh. It was also discovered that a negro man had received a mortal wound, of which he subsequently died. [Atlanta Intelligencer.
