PUGIIIC, Proprietor, IPO Broad and 153 Ellis street. River News. —The Julia St. Clare left yesterday evening. River iu fine boating order. The Registry List. —Gen. Green is becoming impatient at the deiay of voters in registering. They should not ‘stand upon the order of going, but go at once," and delay no longer. The Hanlon Brothers. —These wonderful and world famous brothers will commence their entertainments here at Concert Hal!, on Monday next. They have been performing recently in Charles ton, where the papers are loud- in praise of them. The advertisement in this morning’s issue will give the reader some idea of the character of the en tertainments. The Apooolyfse and Paradise Lost. —These remarkable tableaux are now open at Concert Hall. All lovers of the beautiful and sublime, and all students and admirers of Milton, will go to see these illustrations of Heaven, Hell, Chaos, and Paradise, as described by the author of Paradise Lost, and as designed and painted by the celebrated John Marlin, of London. His Satanic Majesty's rebellion iu Heaven, bis over' throw by the Son of God,'and his ejec tion from God’s domains, are exceedingly sublime. The tableaux of the Prophe cies of St. John, or the Book of Reve lations, which are exhibited in connec tion with the Miltonian tableaux, have but recently arrived in this country from Loudon, and are from original designs of Gustave Dorennd John Martin. Recorders Court. —The new Re' corder, Matt. Sheron, Rrq., took his seat yesterday, and filled the Chair with be coming dignity—in fact, we think he is going to be a first rate Recorder, as he was a first rate Justice of the Peace, only violators of the City Ordinances had better keep clear of him. He will enforce the law to the fullest extent, so he will. There was a very fair attendance on the Court yesterday, and we regretted to observe one as frail as she was fair. It seems that she ‘"had a sort of a tippling way," and the Policeman didn't think it was right for her to have »ueh a way, so he took her in custody and put her safely away. The poet (that is, you know, some poet.) wrote: <‘llcll bath no fury like a woman scorned,” but the wretched printer (all printers are wretched) got it— “ Hell hath no fury like a woman corned!” And, really, it seemed that, in the pres ent case, at least, the printer was as near right as the poet. But she got over it, and the Recorder “ let her down gently,” with a fine of $5 and costs. We sincerely hope that it will be a lesson to her, and that she will do better in fu ture. A gentleman who '‘went it on his muscle” and his “rerolvulaire,” thus infracting two-sections at one time, the 18th and 17th, was fined VlO and costs for the first, and $5 and costs for the* second offense. A 16lh section case—open cellar door —was fined $2 and costs. A couple of 18th section cases were dismissed, and one was fined $5 and costs. , A colored hoy, who broke a large pane of glass in a store, on Broad street, but “didn’t go to help it,” was let oil with a lecture. He said he’d pay for the glass, in course. And a colored 18th section case was fined $5 and costs. Although of a wise name he didn’t prove to be a wise man. He promised to attend Court the day before yesterday, but, somehow or an other, be forgot it. Ctry Hospital.— ln the official re. por* of the City Hospital, in the Coun cil l*Poceedings of Friday last, the num ber discharged should have been Ifr instead of 7. -A ■ en»vtfai PjfticnKO.—A beauti fully executed portrait of ►ope Pius IX cast be | »fen at the stors of Mr. .1. J. Browne, Broad street, opposite Monu ment street. It was taken in Rome for Bishop Lynch by a dialinguMhed (wint er of “the Eternal City," rtf) iwKhlly; an elegant work. ■ Y«*v u Salk «*’ Mr. IMlonevTins Bis second great sale of horses to morrow. The especial atten tion ol fiynilies is directed to several 'match pairs; and also several single harness horses, suitable lor rock away purposes. These horses are perleclly gentle, and warranted in every respect. _ IRsjtqp Lvjtuu in Atlanta. —Bishop Was inviUM by a committee, con-, sistiiig'of Ex-Gov. Brown, J W Duncan, and others, to deliver a second lecture in Atlanta, the proceeds to be for the benefit of the orphans of Charleston. Bishop Lynch accepted the invitation, and was to lecture last night j subject, "The Discoveries of America before Columbus." . ) > . Young Men’s Library Association. —The attention of our citizens is espe cially directed to the public meeting in behalf of this Association, (o be held at the Library Rooms on Fridav evening next. We can add nothing to the forcible appeal by the officers of the Association, which we publish iu another place, and hope that every citizen will feel and manifest a direct and earnest interest in this Association, by attending the meet ing or sending up a subscription, •so that the managers may be enabled to make such additions to the Library anJ Reading Room as will render them creditable to tue taste and culture of the City. Proud of His Boots. —A neighbor 6f ours has a little four year old, who is just enjoying his first new boots, 'ihe other morning he came stamping up the piazza, and commenced kicking against the door—a way he has of knocking. We recognized him, hut, to hear his re. ply, asked—who’s that? “Me" —was the reply—“me, Joe," what’s got a pair of new boots from Cohen’s.” On lettinsr him in, he walked across the floor with both hands in his pockets, feeling richer than a young Rothschild. That is the way Cohen makes the little folks happy. -j- City Census.—A number of our Southern cities have recently had a census of their population taken, and it is, perhaps, gratifying to observe that they all show a large increase, both in the white and black population. We say perhaps, because it is hot always true that the growth of cities are true indices of the growth of the surrounding districts. There has been an unusual tendency to quit the country and try the uncertain fortunes of city lite, all over the country. Still the growth of cities is of local advantage, and it would be very gratifying to know how the fortunes of war have affected Augusta. Therefore we hope arrangements will be made for taking the census of this City at an early day. Our growth may not have equalled that of some of our sister cities, but we believe there is no city South where the people are more generally employed, or where business has been better than in Augusta. Sai.es at the Lower Market. —The following are the sales at the Market on yesterday: BY C. V. WAI.KER, One lot on Greene street, 75 feet front, S6OO.

A Rake Decision. —The act passed by the Legislature of Louisiana, in 1864, levyiug a tax of one quarter per cent, on gross sales and receipts, has been declared by Judge Duplantier, of the Fifth District Court, to be uncon stitutional, as it levies a tax ou imports and exports, and thus comes in conflict with the provisions of the Constitution of the United States. 11/ ti OBOBBIA ITEMS. £ , , The day pusenger trains «*q the Georgia new meet at Oconee, above Oreentboro. ' The officers anjl employees of the Atlanta and West Point Railroad have presented George G. Hull, Esq., late Superintendent of the Rosd, with .a splendid parlor service of solid' atlvcit A fire occurred in Macon, on Sunday HfDQCIiMUti tjpUtmag kfcaeldrcs of Steven iJoq Liter, J. ft. Cherry, and of Jonee, Ba<W A *Day, Till on and neat tho corner of Colton Avenae and Cherry street. A member of the Fire Depart ment, named W'agenstein, was seriously injured by the explosion Qf a kef of ponder, which shook the city like a small earthquake. The Governor has appointed Peter son Thweatt, E»qr,. Distributing f Ageht for the corn to bo furnished the poor under the appropriation of SIOO,OOO by the laet Legislature. Mr. Thweatt has issued a circular to Justine* “of .the Inferior Courts, requiring them to mak’e returns ol those entitled to a share of the supplies. Under the law, none are entitled, to it who are a tie to work or purchase the same ; and no part of it fe to be distributed until it is evident that a sufficiency olf corn will not be contributed from voluntary sources. r The Federal Union says his Excel lency, Governor Jenkins, has appointed Hon. John W. H. Underwood, of Floyd county,. Judge of the Tallapoosa Circuit, to fill a vneaucy caused by the failure of the people to elect a Judge oi\, the first Wednesday in Jannary last. Also, Hr.n. D. A. Yason, of Dougher’ ty county, has been appointed Judge of the Southwestern Circuit, to fill a va cancy from the same cause. T. J. Simmons, Esq., of Crawford county, has been appointed Solicitor General of the Macon Circuit, to fill a similar Vacancy. ** In the other Circuits where there were no elections by the peoole, the terms of the old officers do not expire until some time in December next, apd we presume the Governor thought it unnecessarv to make appointment, as elections will be held in January follow ing, and all the appoinfments of Judges and Solicitors made by him, expire when said election is held. Enfranchisement in Maryland.— The Maryland Legislation has passed the bill restoring to their full rights ot citizenship, all persons formerly dis qualified from voting or holding office on acconnt of sympathy with or partici pation in the rebellion. Kentucky. —There is a bill before the Kentucky Legislature appropriating one hundred and fifty thousand dollars for the benefit of the suffering poor of the South, and the papers are zealously urging its passage. An Opportunity for the Presi dent.—The World thinks that the Radi cals have committed a great error in declaring war against tho Supreme Court, and that if this bill assuming to reverse a decision of the Supreme Court pass the Senate, it will be the greatest blunder the Republican party has yet made. It will enable the President to send in a veto message more crushing in argument, and more telling in its ex posure of dangerous designs, than any State paper ever published either in England or America. It is such an opportunity as Mr. Johnson has every reason to covet. He Don’t Resign —The Committee appointed to wait on Mayor Williams, rs Atlanta, and request him to resign, on account of the defalcation of the Treas urer, waited upon him on Saturday morning, and made known the action of the meeting. Major Williams sent them a reply, reiterating his previous decision not to resign, and protesting against being held accountable for the acts of the Treasurer. lie reminded the Committee that one of them was Mayor, and others Members of Council, in 1865, when, it is evident, the defalcations be gan, and announced himself prepared to vindicate his official conduct, when it is assailed in a tangible form. Switched Off. —lt seems that the good people of the city of brotherly love do not like to reduce the doctrine of negro equality to practice. Every few weeks we hear .of a muss with some colored person who presumes to ride in the street cars. Three of these “men and brothers” got into a car on the sth and 6th street line the other night, and on being informed by the conductor that it was against the rules, they de clared that they would stay in spite of rules. The cur was quietly switched off the track into a snow bank, and another put in its place. The colored men took it coolly, and expressed the determina tion to fight it out on that line, if it took all winter. We presume they are sitting “till yet." The New Restoration Policy. —A Washington correspondent of the Balti more Hun says that “the President’s new plan of adjustment, based on quali fied suffrage and amnesty, of which 1 have ulreudy made mention, has been further matured and discussed, und somewhat modified in details. The prospect of its adoption by the Admin istration is almost certain.” This seems to he very much the same as Greeley's plan. The same writer says that several of tho late Provisional Governors of j the Southern States, and other influential Southerners have, for several days been in consultation with the President and members of Congress relative to reconstruction of the Southern States. Their plan bus not been made known, nor has it ypt assumed a possi tive shape. , 0 T —Ristori is about to appear in Mem phis for four nights. BjJ ®ttejgrapl}. 1 -| “TO THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.

A variety of private and army bills passed, aud the House went into Com inittee on the President’s message, aud then adjourned. Tbe New Suffrage Scheme. Washington, Feb. 5. The Richmond Enquirer publishes the new plan of restoration in authorita tive shape : The Constitutional Amendment and laws authorizing withdrawal from the Union are null; tbe United States debt is sacred ; the insurrectionary debt is forever repudiated ; persons born in the United States to be citizens thereof, aud of the Sfates iu which they reside; representation proportioned to the whole number of people, excluding untaxed Indians; no other suffrage qualifica tion than two hundred aud fifty dollars of taxable property and ability to read the Constitution iu English ; amend ment of State Constitutions to be iu accordance with the above, except that none shall be excluded from the fran chise who have heretofore exercised it. Democratic members have not been formally consulted on the new plan, neither has it transpired that the Repub licans have made pledges binding them in case the South adopts it. It is prominently mentioned, in con nection with the new plan, that Gov ernors Orr, ot South Carolina, Sharkey, of Mississippi, Parsons, of Alabam» ( and Marstin, of Florida, endorse it. It is stated that the President also en dorses it. The ice In the Potdmac broke three spans iu the long bridge, and it is gone. The railroad bridge is also gone. Apprehensions arc lelt for Harper’s Ferry bridge. The Sab-Committee on Ways and Means reports adversely to a reduction of tbe whiskey tax. [second dispatch] Washington, Feb. 5.—P. M. The authority which lead to the cor respondence inducing Motleys resigns lion, was Geo. W. McCracken of New York. Gov. Sharkey is in bad health and leaves as soon ns able. Gov. Parsons leaves to-morrow. It is authoritatively stated that the features of the new project, as published North and South, are garbled and un reliable. Gentlemen prominet in the project regret the publication. A true text of the scheme will be presented to the North Caroiinia Legis lation in a few days. It will be given to the public by that body. The scheme originated with southern mem without formal consultation with either political party. It is claimed by its lriends that it will meet the demands of the great conservative elements of the country, and drive extremists to rea sonable terms. The site for the California branch mint, corner Fifth and Mission streets, lias been purchased for SIOO,OOO, gold. It is contemplated the building will cost $600,000. FROM BALTIMORE.
