The number of persons registered yesterday, at the Court House, was whites 28, colored 64. Iteirlsfration in Alabama, Partial returns from forty-nine coun ties in Alabama show a registration of 28,000 whites and 49,000 blacks. It is estimated that the black majority in the State is from 25,000 to 30,000. Night Train to Atliiuu, We understand that a night train, for the accommodation of passengers, will lie run on the Athens branch of the Georgia Railroad, duriug Commence ment (next) week. An Usual, Ahead. We are indebted to the Southern Express for New York papers. As the mail failed to bring any Northern papers, those brought by the Express were more than usually acceptable. Itccordcr’s Court. Two freedwomen, violators of the 18th section, were given the choice either to pay $2.50, go on the chain gang for five days, or to jail. They chose the latter during the threatened storm. Itlurfgett <fc Cos., Have just received a fine lot of Miles' Ladies Cloth iiu.skiu and Gents’ Cal. Oxford Ties.

The Ma con Messenger states that a shooting affair came off on Wednesday between two merchants, but as no damage was done we will not give their names. The warm weather made them hot probably. Mr. Price** Murderer*. Before His Honor, Foster Blodgett, John Reynolds, and R. M. Phinizy, Esqs., yesterday, the two colored men, John Driver and Lewis Jones, were fully committed for trial at the next regular term of the Superior Court, to be held in January next, charged with having murdered Mr. Price, near Quaker Springs, iu this County. Matrimonial. Up to July Ist, or during the past six months, seventy marriage licenses were issued by the ordinary of Fulton county to whites. During the year 18G6, only one hundred and twelve. Up to July Ist. ninety licenses were issued to colored persons. Mercer University. The Atlanta papers have made stren uous appeals for the location of the above University in that city. Also the citizens of Griffin have invited an inspection by the Board of its peculiar advantages, and seems desirous for its location there. We would not have any objection to bear of Augusta being cWu,,,. the attractions of our beautiful city are w.q known, however, and we wdl await the nc,y,„ oft , ]e } ioard . Death by l.ighiulu h During the storm yesten ay evening two colored boys, sons of Wilr Um g um _ merfield, were struck by lightning Rnd one of them instantly killed. The otu, r was stunned for a short time, but received no serious injury. They resided in Canaan, one of the suburbs of this City. We learn that the lower Market House was struck about the same time. The lightning passed down the conductor which happened to be broken, but the fluid luckily passed off at the fracture without doing damage. The Finances of Georgia. From a statement of the financial condition of the State, aa furnished by the Treasurer, John Jones, Esq., we copy the following recapitulation: Assets, exclusive of taxes . . $11,019,600.00 Bond! in Treasury, nut sold 996,000.00 $12,009,600.00 Total debt, including interest 6,266.696.00 Assets over all liabilities . . . $5,761,966.00 Good Advice. In delivering the prizes at the com mencement exercises of Mercer Univer sity; Major Joseph B. Cummins, in his address upon the ‘‘Art of the Orator,” urged one point not found in the books, viz : Not to hold yourself ready to speak on all occasions, but to speak only when you have something of importance to say. Stump speakers, members of the Legislature and members of Con gress would do well to practice this rule. What an amount of gab it would save. Disagreeable Practice. The practice indulged in by many of smoking in market, is decidedly a disagreeable, not to say disgusting one. The fumes from dirty pipes are enough to sicken any decent man before break fast, and must certainly prove verv offensive to ladies who are obliged to do marketing. And yet men, apparently forgetful of or indifferent to this fact, carry their pipes among the crowd and smoke as industriously' as though no one was near to scent their fumes. It is a pity but what the practice could be stopped. How IVot to Leave it Car, The ignorance of the laws of gravi tation shown by many persons is almost inexcusable. For instance, in leaving a street car (which many persist in doing while the same is in motion) persons jump backward off at a angle with the track, or almost any way except the right one. Such careless ness frequently results in falls and contusions, which might he avoided if they would but spring forward in the direction in which the car is proceeding. There is a rule forbidding a passenger leaving the car while in motion ; but to those who choose to disobey, the above hint may be of practical value. Our readers had better cut out the above paragraph, and lay it by until our energetic friend Col. Cole gets his street railroad in operation. By the sisrns, it won’t be very long that we will have to wait. The Pouboily Fund. A Teachers’ Convention, for the State of Virginia, was in session at Lynch burg last week. The session was a very interesting one. Rev. Dr. Sears, General Agent of the Peabody Fund, was present and addressed the Conven tion in a very entertaining speech, in the course of which he stated his intention in visiting the South was for the purpose of thoroughly examining into the educational wants of tlie country, with a view to decide how the cause would be best subserved iu the distribution of the Peabody fund— whether in its appropriation to primary or normal schools, or to academies and colleges. This statement is ol interest to all. Now that the prospect of imme diate starvation has passed, we can think of educational matters. Catholics in the United Staten. It has been estimated that the num ber of Catholics in the United States in 1830, was 450,000, in 1840 it was 960,000, 4.400,000 in 1860. According to these estimates, the Catholics double in number every ten years, and iu 1870 we shall have eight or nine millions, or nearly one fifth of the whole population. Seventy five years ago, the United States did not have a single Catholic Bishop. The first bishopric was estab lished in Baltimore in 1799, and now they have 7 archbishops, 33 bishops, 61 archpriests, 3.833 priests, 72 seminaries, 1,400 schools, 3,000 churches, besides other institutions, and property esti mated at $37,000,000. Sontticm Express Company. The Savannah Herald , of the 25th, publishes the following well timed remarks: We see that the officials of one or two Western railrcad-j, who have now begun to grow jealous of the increasing trade of this Company, are discussing the subject of taking the express business into their own hands. These gentle men do not reflect, perhaps, that the Express business was started in obedi ence to the wishes of the people, who could not find such reliable and speedy accommodation as they desired in the railroad management. Now, that some of the Railroad Companies see this Express Company powerful and pros perous, they make the discovery that the latter are doing a businees that properly belongs to the Railroad, and aosire to exclude the Express agents from their roads, and take to them selves all the benefit of the labor and energy expended in building up a useful aud profitable institution. If the change should be effected, of which we have not the slightest appre hension, we do not think the public will leave the old and well tried Express agents for the incomplete arrangements of railroad officials. ‘The business of a railroad demands an attentive super vision, which would leave no time to attend properly to an Express. The Southern Express business, as time and experience have demonstrated, is man aged by men of activity and integrity, and who have always been prompt in payment for losses. If, as has been said, our people in every department of business evinced but half the zeal and energy which have established the Southern Express Company, as a per manent institution of the country, there be such a prospect of golden as has never been paralled. We noy, e movement referred to will end in ai j inglorious failure. The cour teous aud officers and attaches ot this company pl ace UB under obliga tors daily for Ufe Wßpa p er f avorg> an( j not unfrequently in advanceof the mails. But tins is only one of th e l eai) t of the many important semees rendered to all classez of the community. A City Fox (’bate. The only incident which occurred in the City to vary the stupid monotony consequent on this hot weather, was a fox chase down Broad and Jackson streets yesterday. Somebody’s tame fox got loose and afforded capital sport to divers young and old citizens of European, African, and mixed descent. Upon the whole, the race was an exciting one to the pursuers, bat Reynard himself seemed not to take much interest iu it, for he galloped leisurely along, glancing occasionally over his shoulder, with an expression on his countenance as if he would say if he could “Don’t you wish you could come it.” Attempts were made to set the dogs, of which there are always plenty, mongrel and cur of low degree, loafing about our streets after the manner of gentlemen of leisure, hut they were too civilized and dignified to notice such a low ami ill dressed fellow as a fox, and to tell the truth, most of them seemed afraid of the rough looking cracker. The last we saw of the fox he was making for the Georgia Railroad Depot, where we hope Colonel Cole gave him a ticket for some more congenial and wooden locality. Ruilroad (.'on veil I ion. The annual meeting of the stock holders of the Atlanta and West Point Railroad, was held in Atlanta on Thurs day. The meeting was more fully attended than for many years past. The reports of the officers of the road showed it to be in a prosperous condi tion. Everything passed off harmo niously. The old board was unani mously reflected, viz.: John P. King, President; Richard Peters, Ferdinand Phinizy, Hon. 0. A. Bull, Jesse Me London, and John E. Robinson, Direc tors. Detl iration. The Odd Fellows of Savannah dedi cated their hall on Wednesday night, which has recently been fitted up. The ceremonies are reported to have been exceedingly interesting. After the close of the consecration ceremonies, says the Advertiser, a beautiful stiver pitcher was presented to the M. W. G. M. by P. G. John T. Thomas, in behalf of the brethren ot the Order, over which Grand Master Haupt has so ably presided. The Grand Master was taken by surprise, but responded in a grateful and graceful manner, reiterating his sentiments of love for the Order and his brotherly feeling toward all con nected with it. Going to 11—1 Alive. At a farm house recently, in the lower end of Knox county, some one at the mpper tabie had been reading the Governor’s proclamation calling out the militia. The old lady listened with painful attention. Dropping her knife and fork and wiping her mouth with the corner of her apron, she broke forth: “1 just believe this war ain’t over yet. These folks are goiu’ to begin to shoot one another again. I’ll tell you, folks, what it is, if Browulotv don't die soon he’ll go to h—l alive.’ After which she finished her supper.

Address S. R. Wells, 389 Broadway, New York. A Hit at Com»i>ondi‘iice. We find the following good “hit” in an exchange. Those who have been in the “noospaper” business, and have ever been afflicted, will appreciate it : A publisher of a paper made arrange ments with a man in a neighboring town to furnish him with news items from that locality. The result of the arrangement is as follows, and was rather startling to the editor : “There iz not much noos around here yit, but there iz a liitui, A man bad his hed cut in a site last nite, the dootur sez if he don't get well in mornin, that he will hev to die certing ; he leves 1 small wile and family. Another man is sick and I gess he’z got the kolery but sum people say his wife pizened him, the doctur kant tell yit, but when he dies they is goih to hold a post morting over him.

Don’t forgit to send a paypur.” Your Korispondxnt. AUGUSTA MARKET. Fiudav, July 26—P. M. SPECIE.—Tbcro is no change to report. There is very little demand, and the market is quiet.

Richmond, July 26.—The United States District Court commenced its session to-day. Judge Underwood in his charge, said the grand jury would have anew class of cases before them, iu which illegal registration would be charged. lie urged moderation, as many had registered upon the strength of the Attorney General's opinion, and that of the district commander, and had not intended to commit perjury.
