To-morrow (Sunday) morning, by pre vious special request, the pastor of this Church will preach upon the Divinity of Jesus Christ. It has been mid by some—and doubt less believed to some extent, that this Church does not Uaoh the Divinity of All who wish to hear the of the Church on this paiuh would do wall to attend. Lent Sunday Hr. Harris preached a sermon on the inspiration of the New Toa turnout Tke tslr OrawMl Mati.r. Then has reoently been oonaderoble feeling and talk in refereaos to the pend ing settlement between H. L Kimball andthaeily authorities, in reference to the Fair Ground. We are pleased to state that the Council settled it amicably iost night, Hr- HtabnU paying over the amount decided upon by the Council— And now, we treat that as all obstacles the way of holding u Fair thin fall reparations will rsst on foot that will se- u Fair that wifi do credit to Atlanta, TM«t latmdlai Cam Im Notaan Gen. Gartrcll, tho counsel lor yonng Burdott of Nownan, has returned from that place; also, several gentlemen re siding there, were in the oity yesterday. Oar leaders will recollect that in our paper of tho 2Cth inst., we gave a state ment of the case os it had been reported to ns, viz : that Messrs. Kramer i Weill, merchants, of that place, hud caused tho arrest of thsir clerk (Mr. Burdott,) a high' ly respectable young man, on a charge of larceny; that they had suspected and watched him for some time ; that they finally confronted him alone in the store, and with pistols sud threatening* caused him to acknowledge tho chnrgo and turn over to tin'll), by way of restitution quantity of notes and valuable papers of bis own, which were in his possession ; and that the young man lmd can Messrs. K. A- W. to tie arrested for rob bery. This is tlio substai.re of our statement on the 2Clb. Wo learn that its general tenor is cor rect, bat that it is incorrect in this: that the merchants had not caused the arrest of young Bnidett, and farther, that in the trio), or examination, no evidence was advanced to show that the acknowl edgment was extorted by an exhibition of “pistols in band." With these two ex ceptions, we learn that the account given of tho affair was oorroct. Some gentlemen of good standing in Nuwnon were in the eity yesterday, who report n high state of pnblio feeling in that community. They say that it is al leged and believed, tbe Messrs. K. A W. are financially embarrassed, and that wlut they did, was hat a step to relieve themselves somewhat of their omburras- mont; that they were owing Yancey BurdeU’* father borrowed money, and that among other valuable papers turned over to them by him, was the note held by bis father against them, which they time compelled him to surrender, with an endorsement of full satisfaction on it; also notes upon other persons iu Coweta connty, being in the same compulsory way transferred to Messrs. K. & W. It is said that after they had forced him to give up oil tho mouoy and volu able papers he had upon his person and in his trank, they allowed him to depart, with the admonition that he would do well to say nothing about it; that they hod the proof of his guilt and oould send him to tho ponitontiary, but pre ferred not to do so, and would never say anything about it, if ho would keep ■till. As soon, however, as ho was at liborty, he had thou arrested on a ehargo of rob bery. Tlio caso was bronght before a Court of five Magistrates, who heard tho examination. No witnesses was intro duced, exoopt Young Burdott himself, who testified to their calling him into tho back offloe and oliargiug bim with larco- ny, and that they usod threats, exhibited knivos, and several times ono or more of them (being throe in number thus con fronting him) by placing tho hand in a certain pocket, induced tho belief that a pistol or pistols would be drawn, if all thoir wishes wore not complied with.— This is tho substance of tho testimony os it is reported to ns. Farther, That at this point of tho pro ceeding, a proposition was niado by Messrs. K. & W. through their counsel, to compromise and settlo the wholo mat- tor. This was agreed to, and all tho notoe, money, Aa, whioh were given up to thorn by Burdett were roetorod to him, and Urns tho matter ends. Wo havo tried simply to state tho facts in tho ease os reported to ns. Of course wo did not previously, nor do wo now, know anything of the oase personally.— We have only given such statements os have been reported to us by goutlemeu of good standing. If wo have mnde any erroneous statements, or given publicity to anything that is unjust to either party, wo will cheerfully correct it whou the foot is brought to our knowledge. ■ATOR’S COURT.

The liouso will be a two- story building with a front of fifty-two feot, with a length of seventy-two feel Tho lower story will contain nine rooms for recitations and music. Tho hall or audience room will bo in tho upper story and will extend throughout the building with a height of sixteen feel At one end of tho hall there will bo a rostrum extending the entire width of tbe ball and will be eighteen feet wide. At each extremity of the rostrnm there will bo a small room for music. From those two rooms pianos can 1>o easily moved out on public occasions. Tho lower story will communicate with the upper by means of a largo stairway at tbo front of the building, and two small stairways from tbo lower floor to tbe small rooms on the rostrum. At each side of tho front of the building, towers will be erected whioh will contain threo rooms each. The gen end plan of the building will bo nearly tho same as tho old collcgo which was burnt during tbo war. The rooms will bR largo and convenient, and will furnish when completed, nmplo accommodations for two hundred and fifty pupils. The Southern Female College was chartered about thirty years ago. Since that timo two hundred and thirty young ladies have received the honors of grad lution. In 1803 the College was de stroyed by fire. Sineo that timo Mr. Cox has preserved tho organization of the College, and, notwithstanding difficulties almost iuBupornble, it has grown in pub- lio favor till now it enjoys a degree of prosperity rarely equaled in this country, The forthcoming cataloguo will mim bor about ono hundred and twenty pu pils, more than seventy-five of whom are musio scholars. This great success is re markable, achieved, as it has been, in Bpito of difficulties arising from the want of a suitable oollego building, and from tbe financial troubles of the country, and gives token of a bright fnturo for tho College when those sources of embarrass ment aro removed. Tho completion of this building will greatly incrcaso tho patronago from a dis tance whioh is already largo. Parties, too, in search of places to locate and ed ucate their children, will properly esti mate this additional inducement to sottlo in out eity. Every proprietor of real es tate, ovory merchant and every citizen of LaQrange is therefore directly interes ted iu pushing forward this enterprise, and to this ond should contribute liberal ly of his rncuus, and thoroby build up his owu individual busiucss, while promoting tho best interests of society.

' Th. Rural bilh<rsir.| The August number of this periodical ii before ns, and is, as usual, well filled with useful and interesting mattor. There ia a steady improvement in this magaaino whioh angun well for suooeas. Its circu lation it increasing steadily, as it deserves It is tho cheapest magixine within oar knowledge, its subscription price be ing only one dollar s year. It is pub lished by Eehol A Wilson, of this city. REMARKS. Tho wholesale trado of the city, has not changed in condition—the demand continaing active, though no very heavy orders aro received. Whilo some of oar merchants have not been active, yet they have been moderately well patronized, and tho greater part of them have done a very fair business, considering the sea son. We lutvo heard quite a number of our “heavy” citizens express themselves in regard to tho proposed Board of Trade which is to bo organized to-nighl and ail seem to agree in tho great usefulness likely to result from such au institution. It is to bo hoped that all our business men will interest themselves in this mat ter, and lend tho movement their pres ence to-night. The benefits of such an institution, of course, will not bo felt at once, bat its groat influcnco in tho future cannot bo disputed. Let there bo a largo attendance. Time transactions aro generally dis couraged, and it is right that they should bo. They aro tho fruitful sources of bank ruptcy, and do more to demoralize trade than uU the other causes combined. “Pay as you go,” is a motto which every business man should keep constantly be tore him, os a strict observance of it will enable bim to Btoer clear of the financial breakers which too often cn- gulph tho adventurous trader. Not only will it ward off the probabilities of bank ruptcy, but it will create a spirit of in dependence and manly principle which a debtor never can ossumo. We shall have moro to say on this matter hereafter. Tho retuil trado, of courso, always maintains a certain degree of activity, evon in tho dullest season. People must cat aud drink aud wear good clothes, whatever elso befalls. Probably tlio greatest demand in tho markot is for ice, os the impression seems to bo that the weather is getting hotter, and is still heating. Cotton—There lias not boon much do ing, owing to tho advanced season. There is not likely to bo much excitement until the oponing of tho coming season. From conversations with leading cotton men wo are unable to learn much, aud they seem to bo pretty much ia tho coudition of Micnwber, “waiting for something to turn up.” Whether tho turn is in their favor or not is too paradoxical a question for as to docide. Iu conversation with a gentloman from Henry county to-day, he informed us that there is a plantation near Snapping Shoals, in that county, on which the cotton is five and six feet high, and full,of blooms; bnt we can sfaclysay that there aro not many more such in Georgia. Wo continue to rcecivo gloomy accounts from tho couutry regardiug the growing crop. There is no doubt but that tho smallest crop ’grown since tho war will bo yielded this year. It is a source of pleasure, however, to know Hint tho greater numbor of onr planters will not be dependent upon the staple for tho nec essaries of life, an abundance of corn aud vegetables having been grown. Cotton presented for sale now is often of inferior grade. Prices range from 18 to 13), though au extra grade might bring 19c. Flour.—Our merchants are receiving heavy consignments of flour from the Wost, and there is overy indication of an easy feeling in tho market. As indicated by us yesterday, a reduction in prices has taken place. Superfine is;now quoted at 86 25; extra, $7 25; family 88 25 to 88 75; fancy 89 25 to 89 75 Demand is very active, and the opening of the fall season, in our judg ment) will bring a marked reduction in quotations. The inflated prices which have been obtained must give way to a healthier conditiou. Thc heavy wheat crop of tho Wcat will assiat greulty iu tliia reduction.

Tho Board met yesterday afternoon to hear tho reports of committees and to adopt an address to tho Baptists of Geor gia. Tho address says that Dr. Landrum, of Savannah, Mr. Slade, of Columbus, nnd Mr. Mordecai Edwards, of Oglo- thorpo, have been uddod to the Board; that the organization of tho Board lias been completed by tho election of Hon.

James, Esq., A. K. Seago, Esq., and Rev. E. W. Warren, has been appointed to tako charge of tho general operation of tho movement; that a Constitution has been adopted; that .the principal offico will bo in the city of Atlanta; that the Board has ratified tho agreement of tho Committee engaging the services of Rev. B. W.
