A runaway horse and a nigger in pur suit was the attraction on Broad street yesterday evening. Attention is directed to tho business oard of Dr. 8. H. Stout, agent for the introduction of Harper A Bro’s publica tions. A drunken man tried to measure dis tance yesterday. A policeman helped him measure it toward the calaboose. Some of the members of tho Atlanta Agricultural Association object to horse- racing at tho projected Fair. An enter prise under suoh management wonld be sure to burst. On tho corner of Hnnter and Broad streets, there is a nuisance to which tho attention of the Board of Health is called.

Oppressed with the exceasive labors of the week, his mind racked by grave questions of juris diction, and the eternal buzz of “910 and costa”ringing in biscars, bo repaired to tbo old log church where his youthful lips first learned to mutter words of grati tude. Ho sat down, and ohl what a smile of sweet beatitude illumed bis broad and expressive fenturos as bo reflected it was not his turn to speak to-day; that he could drink in tho deep inspiration of words spoken by another; that for the nonce lie could firmly close his lips and give his weary tongue a rest! Ah, there are pleasant moments iu one's life— -mo ments, though never to bo recalled, are novor to l>o forgotten—moments whon nature opens up to oar enchanted gaze all of Jiorcurious beauties; when we revel in greon pastures aud sip tho pure nec tar from tho babbling brook; aud whon the softest and tiniest of melodies are wafted to our ears by the iUolian breeze, breathed from tho lips of Sylvan sprites! His Honor was carried away in tho holiest of raptnres, and as the hoars flew on, and evening grew into inky shade, and the moon bad revolved her nightly ronnd, reflecting a glorious light upon his face, ho still became deeper and deeper immersed in tbe all-absorbing scene, and was only recalled to conscious noss ns tbo first gray streaks of dawn shono aslant tbo plain, by hearing tho stentorian notes of tho newsboys ns they shouted “Here's yor morniu’ paper I— Here's Tbe Sun, anil all about what tho Maeon Tshgraph suys of Cbarlos Obn- dish!" His Honorshook himself strong ly, and as he hoard the namo repeated, he murmured, “Surely, that issomo great soldier!" And there ho sat in the Mayor's chair, looking at pence with all mankind.— Johnson scorned to regard him as spiritu alized, and walked on his too tips, and Fitzgibbons almost forgot tho “onld sthono jug." After patting the beer on Mr. 0. P. McGuire for $25, His Houor had tho pleasure of an interview with COL. HENRY 6IIABPK, A gentleman of distinction in his way, and fully alivo to the dnty of an honora ble man under a difficulty. Tho Colonel waa so dazzlod with tho brilliance of His Honor's faco that ho wonld fain assume, like Muses of old, a roil; but having no veil on hand, he frequently manifested a disposition to " depart." Johnson, how ever, being no advocato of any “ New Departure,” as often called him back. His Honor compromised tbe matter by inserting an additional plank ot “$10 and costs,” which seemed to satisfy John son, bat, somehow or othor, was not fnlly acceptable to Fat. l’itzgibbons, who al ways is “jubus” about “new departures” of any kim^ A GYPSY CAMP In the rear of tho Beoond Ward, near Kries's, was molested on Saturday night A largo numkur of virtnous col ored maidens, attended by their natural protectors from McPhorson Barracks, made up a masquerade ball No room of convenient sizo being available, they retired to n sequostersd grove, and in dulged in high carnival. Music aud mirth presided, and white, black, yellow, streuked and striped, mingled in happy profusion, chasing the glowiug hours with flying feet Tho maidens were happy—oh I so happy I Their white ad mirers wore so handsome—so military in their lieariug, aud such perfect models of gentlemanly groeo and propriety—just snoli gentlemen as “ place themselves upon tho Code 1” Tho seeno was becoming thrillingly interesting. But hark I what sound is that 7 Whenco thoso spectral illusions disturbing “ love’s young dream?” From tho earth armed focmen spriug. The city police were coming down like tho Assyrian upon the fold, or, in the more oxpressivo language of tho present day, “ like a thousand of brick!” The brave soldiers clutched their trusty weapons and—run I Tho maidens scream ed and fainted. Dire confusion reigned supreme. The soldiers fortified them selves in the adjoining thickets, aud hid liko mice. The maidens assured tho po- lioe that naught was wrong—that it was only a little fun—only that, and nothing more. Misses Lizzie Pattorson, Ellon Gartrell, Amsnda Banders, Pegg White, Mattio Wilson, Norsk Shaw, Til da Johnson, and Hattie Mallot, (the latter wearing a bridal veil, and the crowd representing every tint of the rainbow), were soenrod and led off to the oalabooee. The victors continued the search after Unole Sam’s retainers, and found Major Charles Nobby, Captain James Handy, and Lion- tenant John P. Gilfoil, onsoonoed in a thicket They laid down their arms, surrendered, and seemed to whisper “Company Fund.” We looked at their half-starved countenances, and saw tho point They were quietly escorted to the calaboose, whither their colored par amours had preceded them, and fell asleep in their glory. His Honor's sym pathies for tho poor folks near that plaoe, waa aroused. He had not a few constituents ont that way, and they should be protected. Nothing short of $10 and ooata from each lady and gentle man would satisfy the outraged law. So he decided, and the decision met tho ap- MASSA JONES, is a small-sized African of tender years, and was acting as “friend” for another cub. They had heard of Charles Obn diali’s exploits, and placed themselves '“on the code;” hat a passing policeman concluded that they might as well stand on the city oode, and nabbed them both. They were both assisted to “the costs” by his Honor, who does not seem to have much respect for the abused “code.” MB. LIVSf'EV, was up for keeping open house on Sun day.

They came close, and Marcellus touched his wife’s cheek; but she says it was not in kimlnoss. His Honor was much troubled by the rela tion of this simple story, and feeling liis duty as tho champion of tho sex, mulcted Marcellas in $5 and costs. THOMAS CASON took a drink. Some how or other the drink turned round and took him. Ho felt happy, glorious. Ho wandered out into green fields and Elysiau groves. Ho was supremely happy. Ho lay down upon tho grass, and dreamed a dream. Wil liam Shearer was Mayor, and Snyder was Chairman of tho Police Committee. “$10 and costs” were among the things of the past. The Georgia Western Rail road was built, aud Alderman Finch was ono of tho Diicctors; Col. Hulbert was Superintendent, and still prided himself upon being a “narrow gunge man.” Tho city was blessed with water-works. Allauta was a groat city, with magnificent parks, schools, etc. Broad street was extended. Charles Obadiuh was Gov ernor, and was greatly respected. Here tbo dream became troublesome.

The Western and Railroad haa I n new schedule with three daily eoger trains to New York, making the trip in 49 hours and 49 min utes from leaving Atlanta—giving ohoioe of thirty-nine different routes. If anybody can beat that schedule we fcftvsnot seen it It scorns that there is no depth of deg radation into which women do not de scend when they leave the paths of recti tude. Downward and still deeper into tho quagmire of corruption and rotten criminalty they con tin tie to sink, until all that is in them of humanity seems to fly from the foul, reeking embodiment of moral stench and filth. Tho law is too lenient for such characters; they ought to meet with instaut aud summary pun ishment os a sacrifice to outraged mor ality. Last week two whito women and black apes woro committed to answer tho charge of n violation of tho State code, anti yesterday tbreo more cases were addod to the list S.un. Manuel, negro, and a whito wo man, were bound over for fornication. Ilamp Whitehead, colored, and Lizzie McDonald, whito, bound over for forni cation. Booker Lawsou, nil apology for a white man, and Forroby Lawson, a negro wench, were also bonnd over for the same oflenco. These cosos were all examined before Justice Butts, aud revoalod an amount of degraded sin wc did not suppose to exist. It is to bo hoped they will never bo allowed to goat largo again. There is no such thing as reformation for creatures who Iiavo sunken 60 low iu the scale of human degradation, and it is further to bo hoped that they will be fully aud com pletely abandoned to tho clutches of tho law. Policeman Kicklighter deserves tho thanks of tho public for his services iu hunting up these miserable wretches.— Ho proves himself a good aud efficient officer, and well deserving of promotion and compliment The Board of Trad*. We find that there is an enthusiastic movement on foot among oar morclwnta to have Major B. E. Crane, of tlio firm of Williams, Langston A Crane, made Presi dent of the Board. Mr. Crane has not been in the city for some weeks, but gen tlemen who feel the deepest interest in the success of tho Board of Trade move ment, are anxions to have him selected as President. He will make a good one.— He is an active young mnn, and ono of the beet merchants in Atlanta; and if tho choico should fall upon him ho will exert himself to make the Board a successful and controlling institution. The com pliment wonld, no donbt, be appreciated by him, and yet he is in every way worthy of it. Tl*s Blfgeit Tomato**. Mr. John H.

Dnring the week ending to-day, trade has been nnnanally brisk for Jhe season. It baa been a source of pleasure to see so many evidences of prosperity. Tbe week has been marked by several important eventa for the commercial men of our city. The first is the movement set on foot for the establishment of a chamber of commerce, whioh bids fair to have happy termination. This is a subject which had been previously jiretty woll canvassed and received tho endorsement of every intelligent business man in the community. At the meeting held for that purpose on Saturday night, Mr. Nor- cross struck the key note when he refer red to the defenceless condition of Atlan la, and her inability to meet, with a uni ted front, any encroachments sought to ho made by railroad and other monopo lies. While other cities have their organ izations by which thoy were fully protec ted, Atlanta has suffered grievously from freight discriminations. All this, he ar gued, must bo remedied, if we would have Atlanta a great commercial empo rium. With Mr. Norcross wo most fully agree, and hope that on the meeting of next Monday night final organization will bo completed, and then our commer cial statue will take shape and develop it self into activity. Another, and a lamentable, incident of the week was the injury, to a great extent, of the cotton crop by the recent storms. The promised crop was small, but now is much more so, judging from conversations with leading planters. We cherish the hope that tho injury has been exaggerated. As wo havo remarked in a previous article, this cannot fail to influ ence tho ootton trade of tho coming sea son. The third event of interest was tho re duction in breadstufls. Tho Western market was very fluctuating, but the ten dency to fall has been very strong, and os wo write flour is reduced 25 cents, and so of tbe rest. This wo deem an impor tant fact at this time, and ono indicative of still further decline. In general matters, such ns dry goods, money, hardware, etc., much spirit has been exhibited, though the tendency to speculato has been interfered with by the tightness of money. REMARKS FOR TO-DAY. The general turn of tho market to-day has been dull, and but little retail or wholesalo demand has been felt. Mon day, as a general thing, is a dull day, as it is spent in surveying tho situation for the coming week. As business does not set in in good earnest till the second or third day, much fluctuation in quotations is not to bo looked for. Tho leading de maud seems to be for breadstuff's and.dry goods. In agricultural implements there is much competition, and quite a strong tendency to “come down” on other deal ers. This branch lias, in the past year or so, grown to bo quite an item in our trade. It is ono which we are proud to soo encouraged, ns it indicates intelligent farming. We havo been told that all im proved patterns hnve been eagerly bought up. During tho year the seed tr.ido has developed into somo prominence, and is still receiving a great deal of attention. Wo learn that one of our most intelligent young dealers contemplates making ar rangements so os to get his supply of seeds direct from the growers instead of tho dealers. This movement, if effected, will occasion n revolution in prices. FINANCIAL.

A DIS1IONUST DIIAVMAN. lie Makes 915 and Spends It. Henry Powell is a drayman. That is one very good point in Henry. But Hen ry is not honest This is considered by somo old fogies to be a bad point in Hen ry. Henry, however, has been reading something about New York gold transac tions, and lie saw by them that the lino between ,neum and teum was not very clearly drawn ; in fact, ho was tempted to believe that possession was nlno parts of the law. Early Lit week Henry was employed to drivo n dray. Ho entered upon the dutiosof his position, and tho manner in which he tossed about packages was a cau tion. Henry was pretty successful, and by tho end of the week had amassed a small fortune—315. Ho felt so much like a free citizen that he got oi\ a drunk at once, aud bought his Araminta lots of presents. Oh I that was a delightful timo. At last the 815 was spent, and Henry was almost flat: but he recollected that tho horse and dray still remained. Now, Henry took counsel with himself, and the result was that the harness disappeared, and Henry was again happy. But this gave oul also, and Henry set on foot a trade for the horso and dray. His evil star shone on him here, and ho was nr raigned before Justice Smith. Our fat judicial friend got it into -his head that tho innocent Henry was guilty of larceny after trust, und bound him over. Henry then frankly admitted that ho had spent the money aud sold the harness, bat de nied the intention of selling the horse. Henry's manly form now reclines in Ful ton county jail (such as it is) a warning example to numerous other draymen in tho city. NUGRO testimony. It has often been a sourco of wonder to us how glib tho negroes arc in giving testimony. They tell a story in so many different ways, that it is impossible to know when they are giving the correct version. Tom Tumor is a young man who could not refuse to help a frieud out, hut he helped out one too many for his own good, and on being arraigned before Judge Johnson, was bound over to answer tho chargo of perjury. Alexander Fitzgibbons was arraigned on a similar charge, but was acquitted. The Coining Full*. We are pleased to anuouuco that tho Booi'il of Directors of tho Fair Associa tion is now at work in earnest, and wo have no doubts now of tho success of the Fair. AH obstacles in the way of the operations of tho Directors are removed, and it will proceed more actively than ever with its work of preparation. One of the most important questions connected with tho success of tho Fair, that of tho trials of speed in horses, will bo sottled by tho meeting of Directors to-day. It is much to be hoped that the Directors will uot deprivo the Fair of an exhibition of blooded stock, ns n very largo proportion of the attcndace on fairs is indnoed by the trials of speed. Somo of the Northern States havo discarded hone racing at their agricultural fairs.— This may be admissable there, where the population is so numerous os to sustain snch action. But here, where the popu lation is sparse, it requires every possible induocment, not discreditable, to obtain visitors to tho fairs to mako them suc cessful. The Secretary of tho Association, Mr. Echols, starts for tho West to-morrow to work in the interest of the Fair among manufacturers and stock raisers. We publish the following notice from tho Secretary; Secretaht's Oitice, At a meeting of tho Directors of the Association which met at 8 o'clock this p.

It will have its way, however we may hind it Divers are the expedients to which it reaorta for accomplishment—it always comes out winner. Wo have recently heard of a young man in humble life who looked upon a maiden fair, and love smote him blind. His pas sion was reciprocated by the fair charm er, and their day of courtship was a fore tusto of bliss untold. Finally matters came to a crisis, and marriage was the ono thing needful. But Lothario had no money, not even enough for tho li cense. Hu knew not what to do, till at last a bright thought struck him. He borrowed the sum from a negro, and then proudly claimed his blushing bride. They were married, and are now enjoy ing tho lioney-moon. That Hrm-natlri Lust night about 1 o’clock, tho Catho lic Band, paid their respects to the dif ferent offices, aud played some of their best music. At the Era office, they played “The Frog went Courting;” for tho Constitution they tooted something like tho “New Departure;” to tho True Georgian, wo think we recognized tlie tune of “Off for Idahoe,” while The Sun had the benefit of the “ Pretty little girl I left behind me.” Tho music was excellent, and no doubt appropriate.
