Gus felt that he was fished, and thst $10 and costs were the only means of escape, and his Honor shared the same opinion, when Gus retired to make room for BttLT PXTTEESON, who wee one of Gas. Moore's pleasure party. He remonstrated gently with his Honor, for scenting him of unseemly oondnok He said he wsa an injured men. The last thing he reoolleeted on the occasion referred to, was a boot in rear as he passed oat tne door. That boot has haunted him ever since. He implored his Honor to be merciful; and then appealed to Johnson, who was watching him compassionately. With teen in his eyes, Johnson waved him oil) exclaiming hysterically, “Not unto me be thy appeals, not unto me; but unto him who sitteth in judgment." His Horior arose and spoke of the follies of youth, reminded Billy of the Prodigal son, who came back seeking forgiveness, like the Prodigal son, he himaelf in tended to return to the Democratic party next eleotion, end at the feet of Lather Glenn, declare his unworthiness to numbered among the children of the household, sod crave a servant's “po- ."

His Honor had put hia foot down on the prae- tioe of Sunday tippling, and would not even allow Harvey to give hia whisky away. At this announcement the jaws of every man in the room fell end Hia Hon or beheld himself surrounded by an array of open months. But this sight did not deter him from informing Harvey that he was in for $50 end ousts. GEORGE HEN FIELD accused hia fascinating maided aunt Martha, of being a “eew." Now, what maiden aunt would stand that? Certain ly not annt Martha, who says she Is mnoh a woman as any other “gal and more too.” Hie Honor advised with George, end told him thst this was net the language to use toward a beautiful female, and particularly when that female bora the tender relation of annt George waa sorry for the ugly epithet and His Honor eompassioned George end let him off with $5 and oosts, on the condition that he would "go and sin no more.” DZXXDI was not quite ready for the operation, and asked a continuance, which Hia Hon or, after grave deliberation and mature reflection, waa pleased to grunt JOSEPH Baxxan was in the same fix as Harvey O’Shields, and wiped out the stain against him by $50 and costs. JOHX WATSOH ia a Knight of the strep, and a* brave a hero as ever lathered a face. Like all other knights, he admires troth, and de spises deceit. Consequently, when Mo ses Adams, (who had patronised John until be ooiildn’t get any more eredit and then went elsewhere), made bis appear ance again in John's palace, the latter spoke to him gently. Moses says John swore; John says Moses did likewise.— Now, bis Honor was in s serious pickle. Here were two of his suffragans contra dicting one another—end they both have votes! No wonder his Honor re-adjust ed his spectacles, looked beseechingly upon Johnson, and wept We imagined oould see a merry twinkle in Alderman Cassia's eye, but we may have been mistaken. Possibly it waa tbs glaring reflection of the sun, whioh eaade the Alderman's eye dilate. At any rate, his Honor appeared to be of our opinion, for he wiped away the falling tear, ‘screwed his courage to the stkkfof point,” and determined that the Aid#*- man shonld not see his dilemma, he poked $10 and costa at the teembltng John, and fell back in hiaohsir, complete ly overwhelmed. Johnson declared the Court adjourned, and we left Alderman Casein consoling his Honor, whioh he can suoceed in, we believe, aa he hmi an oily tongue.

It aeema that that noNoe, like aaaiy others, is caned by vagrant oowa.

No doubt many of the reports which raaeh us ere considerably exaggerated, nevertheless enough remains to justify the conclusion that lawlessness is rife, end that it is so rife that the strong arm ofthelasrianaeeesaiy to restore good order, Doriag the past winter and sprieg we have heard of over thirty axtpt- ordidaiy oriuies being committed within ten miles from town along this road. It is not to be iia|p*tnnd, however, that these outrage*, have been committed by the residents-slung the read. These peo ple are as law-abiding and peaceable aa any in the State. The crimes are really committed by Atlanta rowdies and despe radoes, who secrete themselves along tha road for the purpose of fleecing the farm- ereon their way home after disposing of tbeir crops.

Some time ego, it may be reoolleeted, we gave an aooount of a murderous as sault alleged to have been oommitted up on one M. W. Clark, by Tom Kennedy and Coly Beavers, two notorious desper adoes of this oity. Clark represented the thing in such a manner that the wonder was he escaped at all Coly Beavers sub sequently surrendered himsalf to the ear tborities; and yesterday morning the ease came np before his Honor, Jnrtiee Lyoea, for adjudication. From the teetimonyit appears thatClark, Kennedy and Beavers, were at eoross roads grocery yesterday, about one mile from the city, at the fork, on the McDon ough road, kept by Mr. Johnson. They were drinking freely; sod when dork got ready to go home ho said be wanted to hire some hands, and would be glad if they would go with him. Kennedy con sented, and got into the wagon, while Beavers remained behind. To this Mrs. Johnson testified, and, of course, it ac quitted Beavers. When Mr. Hardin met Clark further np the road, he woe badly osed.np; but Kennedy waa not to be seen. Clark was obfuscated to snob an extent that be could no more than take care of himself. Beaver was accordingly discharged; but the indictmeut stands against Ken nedy, who still keeps soeree. It is to be hoped that he will soon be in limbo, and punished for his lawlessness.^ PrtifiBUItoa. Bev. J. T.

Kuhn A Smith, he de manding a withdrawal of the advertise ment, which he regarded ss offenrive. Matters advanced no farther than this until yesterday evening, when Mr. Irene and Mr. Smith, the junior member of the firm of Kuhn A Smith, met in the billiard-roam of the H. I. Kimball House. Nothing had been heard of the metier in some days, end it was hoped that it had been *11 smoothed over, if not amicably sdjnsted. But, unfortunately, such not the esse. When they met yesterday evening some words were passed between them, and from words they soon came to blows. No weapons were used—the per- tire going to business with the good old fashioned weapons provided by nature, and both need them lustily, and might have made ead pictures of each other hod they not been separated by the bystsnd ere. Both bore some of the marks of the bottle upon tbeir countenances, but went off quiet and manifesting no disposition to renew hostilities.! Leaving aside the propriety of the mnnner of settlement, everything con be said in favor of the courage of both com batants. Though neither of them can be considered physirelly, a Heensn or a Mace, neither was lacking in pluck. It is a matter of regret thst gentlemen will select so public a place ss the H. L Kimball House for private adjustments of their character. If men are aggrieved ■with each other, and nothing will ap pease tbeir rage hot e resort to muscle, let them retire to a more private place, where they will not annoy any one, and fight until all hands ore satisfied. There are always people in a popular hotel, to -whom three brawls are offensive. The hotels are the temporary houses of these people. They have nowhere else to go, and it Is wrong thst they should he so annoyed by men who do so thoughtless ly. There have been several similar oc currences at the Kimball House dining the post week, and it is now hoped, for the sake of ell parties, that the fights are closed, and that there will be no more of such disturbances.

A detail was seat out; and about 5 o’clock yesterday evening n regular battallion of prisoners was marched down Marietta street and out to the oellabooee, where, we have no doubt, our friend Johnson will aee that they will he well looked after.

Daring the past year we hers heard of quite a number of arbitrary arrests by the oity polios. The thing has beoome quite a nuisance, bo much so thst there are polioemen who seem to think that they are not amenable to the law they essay to enforce.

His Honor withheld his derision until yesterday evening, when be bound Buf fington over to appear before the Sena torial District Court, under a charge of illegal arrest We hope that Judge Lawrence will read ua the law authoritatively npon this point, and put an end to on abused ques tion.

The giants hod thrown by their armor, and were reuelty reposing in the pesos of solitude. Some of them, no doubt were laying plans for future campaigns; but their action attract ed no attention. Some time ago, Thomas Spencer, Esq, tendered to bis Excellency, his rerigni- tion of the office of Justice of the Peooe, for the 1026th District O. M. It wzs rumored that there would be ao election to fill the vacancy, bnt that No tary Pnblio Lynes would examine the duties of the office. This had the effect of quieting down whatever simmering there might have been. But judge of the commotion among the office-seekers yesterday morning, when they read the following notice on Justioe Lynes' door: BOTICE.

Of oouae, there must be nominations, and there ere not e (ew of our citizens willing to immolate themselves in the public service. Already e number ot them ere feeling their way, end would make rerj good offioers—in their own es timation. This office is one which should be filled by e competent men, and not by an office seeker. He should be honest, impartial end (earless in the discharge of his duty. He should be * man against whom no suspicion exists. They that enforce the lew should themselves obey it. The officer ought to be s lawyer, else how can he decide questions in which law is involved. To elect soy other person to the offioe, woald be simply placing him out of his element, tike a fish out oi water. A lawyer is most likely to under stand what he is doing, for it haa been bin study. He eannot be ao easily cajol ed by the specious arguments of counsel. Besides, it wonld be s public advantage to here an officer who knows what he is doing and how to do il But all these things will be settled by the election, and after it is over the de feated aspirants will ell think if so-and-so hadn't happened, each of them would here been elected.
