Grier, tho popular llooeivor of Tax Beturna for Fulton county. We found that he had jnst completed tlio conoolida- tion of the Digeat for the present year, the aggregates of which we published yes terday, and whioh ia of deep interest to every tax payor. Captain Grier’s books are very neatly and accurately kept, and are highly cred itable to bits. Hr ported IhUk of J.S|. J. W. OVVrol. It woe reported yesterday that Judge J. W. O’Neal diad at Valdoala the day prev ious. It is certain that he had been seriously ill for several days, and was not expeeted to reoover. The report, os we received it, teems to be correct, though it may not be, and we shall bo glad it it ia a mistake, and that be may bo .pared many day. of happineas. We have always opposed him political ly, bnt recognized him as a gentleman of ability, with good intentions. Wo regret that the notice which ap peared in Ihnt So* yeaterdny of a difficul ty between a oonplo of gontlemen on Whitehall street had tbo appearanoe <ff censuring them in the premiaea. It u always fair to presume that men of good standing never get into difficulties for the love of it, or with the intention of being diztorbezo^I thepaaoe. We freely-aty that we had no intention of refleettag unjustly upon them. Oar aim mm to espreaa regret at the oecnr- Maa. What we did say waa written in harie, and not with the care whioh •hould be given toaneh matter*. From all time there has been estrange tradition handed down to each succeed ing generation, that somewhere in the distant West there was a fountain, the taste of whoso waters would confer upon the thirsty traveller tho gift of porpotual youth. Ponce de Loon searched the flowery rallies of Florida in vain; since then seekers after tho precious boon have keen many, and despairing of suc- oess, they havo ransacked the chemist’s art The golden hair of tho dead paa- per hosbccn worn in the ball-room by higbmindod beauties; faded cheeks have been made rosy by tho aid of rouge; while receding symmetry has been hid den by artinl appliances. It was reserved for us to discover the Mecca for which so many have sighed; to ho revivified by Uio waters of perpetual youth. Wo have been there; wo havo tasted; and wo feel that we are ourself again. As wo turned to leave tho spot oar attention was traded by a young and beautiful lady.— We asked a young man on our loft her namo, and on being informod that it was Mis. Youthful, we recollected an old lady of that name, with whom wo had been familiar; and supposing this one to bo young Fred Youthful’s wife, wo stepped up, inquiring tho stato of her husband’s health. What was our astonishment when sho repliod, in seeming anger: ‘‘Sir, I do not understand your mean ing. lbu know that my husband bus been dead these twenty yours." ••Madam,’’ wo replied, ‘‘you scarce look eighteon, and we took you to bo young Frod Youthful's wife. Wo are well ac quainted with tho old lady, and after a short abseneo we have camo back and heard that Fred was married. On being informed a few moments since of your name, we concluded to extend onr con gratulations to the wifo Jof our esteemed young friend.” “Sir, my sou Frederick has got married to on estimnble young lady; hut I really cannot seo why you should take tho motk- or, whom you havo often seen, for the daugkter-in-luw. There, you eon sec Frederick and his wifo coming right over hero now.” We looked around, and saw a sprightly ten year old boy and a pretty little ,’girl, apparently eight or nine. Wo wore con- fouudod, nud appealed to tho well-dressed lady for an explanation. By this timo tho little couple had cotnc up, when Mrs. Youthful began: It's all owing to that spring. Yon know how aged and wrinklod I was.— Well, I came here, and tho uso of that water is making me look younger overy day. Fred nnd bis wifo have been re duced to children. Seo that well-dressed young man, with a small black mous tache. That is Mr. Growhard, who was over eighty years of age.— And thcro again, is that sweet- faced girl sitting by him, If she’s n day old Bhc’s seventy-llvo. Well, sho don't look more than sixteen, and has had, oh, so many eligible offers; hnt she declines them nil, ns slio' don’t think she is old enough yet for tho grave responsibilities of married life. Bless mo ! while I am talking how young you havo grown I" Fred held up a looking-glass to onr face, nnd wo instantly recollected onr col lege dayn. Wo were fully fifteen years younger in appearance. By this timo a large number of young pcoplo were crowding nround us, wboui wo bad pre viously known os extremely venerable people. When wo returned to tho city 110 one knew its, nnd oven onr nndemon- strativo business manager, Mr. J. IIenly Smith, patted us gently oil the head, say ing, " Sonny, what can I do for you ?" A FKAliFI’L THAUKDY. An Biubankm.nl Fall.—On. Man r»l and another Ml*.lag. About 5 o’clook yeaterdny evoning a very soil accident occurred near the State ltoml shops. A number of colorod men wore nt work digging earth for tho com pletion of the sido track running from the Macon & Western depot. Tlioy kept digging under tho embankment, and nearing 5 o’clock the earth abovo broke loose and camo tnmbling down liko an avalanebo. Tbo party droppod shovels and skodadbllod to a safo distance, and on looking back they saw one of their num ber being engulphed, and at last bnt one arm was visible. He kept waving it, un til it was completely covered up. It took tho men about half an hour to dig him out, when they found that ho was dead. Another negro, it is feared, lias fell a vic tim, os ho was not heard of at the latest reports. It may he that he only ran away. It is a straugo fatality that people can not take warning by so many accidents of this kind. A largo number of precisely similar accidents have occurred, and yet they seem to moke no impression upon thoeo who ought to bo most interest ed. If people will dig away nnder tho earth it will fall, and if anybody is under they aro pretty sure to bo engulphed.— It is to be hopod that a better lookout will be kept next time. MAYOR'S COURT. A couple of little boys were up for playing. HU Honor decided that there was no harm in child’s play, and dismissed the caso. Lizzie Smith was admiriug the beau ties of the Kimball House. His Honor thought it was not a vioUtion of tho city ordinance. The ease was dismissed. Amanda Manning was in the same box as Lizzie Smith. Dismissed. Some kind of a case, in which n Mr. Barrett U interested, was continued. W. D. Ellis, tho garden man, was np for damming np water on the street. Tho ise was continued for investigation.

Among tho hundreds who arc working to build up Atlanta by their industry and energy, none aro more deserving tho encouragement of the public, than tho hard-fisted, wido-a-wako A. T. Finney, of carriage manufactory fame. Commencing with small capital, at the end of the war, ho has, by his energy and skill, built up one of the largest manufactories of carriages and buggies in this State. His work has stood the test, and ho now has a reputa tion in the Stato for good work that iu itself is worth a fortune. For style and durability, bis work is not supassed by tho best manufactories of tho North; while for durability, his surpasses the best.

How n Countryman put the llccr on n Commissary Sergeant. Thcro aro many good tales told, even at this lute day, of how tho boys would go about putting themselves outside a quart or two of whiskey, and wo heard ono yesterday that will bear repeating : A certain quartermaster’s cub, who u felt his keeping,” aud who was noted for his pride in his position, and who also had an impression that his position was just a little higlior than that of a Major General’s, notwithstanding his po- sisli was several miles in the rear of offi cers of tho line, and which he always held with diguity and pertinacity, was passing through tho good old county of Campbell, during Sherman’s “ march to tho sea.” Ho was in his normal condi tion-dry, aud tho accidental meeting of a countryman suggested to his mind the fact that it was barely possible to get a little corn whiskey in that county. Ho approached the countryman on the sub ject, and was informed that a few gallons could bo had upon a pinch. The Ser geant proposed to take it, nud wanted to move off directly toward tho still, with the 4-horse wagon of whioh ho had charge. The countryman inquired if he had the money to pay for it—not fancy ing the countenance of tho Sergeant— telliug him that his looks were too Yan- keeish to put him in communication with tho corn juice nntil the money, or its equivalent, was iu hand. The Sergeant protested that ho had no money, but was willing to swap ono of tho Government mules for it The trade was consummat ed, tho countryman saddled tho mule, and Fitch (now doing the dirty work for tho Griffin Star) drove off his spike team, with whisky enough to last him a couple of days.

What the Demi-Monde Eat and Drlult— Beauty on <hc Stand. It is not often that one baa set before him a more interesting bill of fare than that enjoyed by Justice Johnson yester day. There is an absorbing interest at tached to every thing in which woman is interested. Miss Abide Howard, one of the most notorious of the Atlanta demi-monde, eats like other people, but drinks unlike many people. Of course she has to supply her household wants, aud when the bill is presented, aud sho has nothing left to show for it, sho feels bad about parting with her money. Sho run her face at W. C. Hugh’s to tliG'extent of $28.50, and then refused to fork over tho “scads.”— Thus it was that Miss Abbie, iu company with two other of liko ilk, were required to havo an interview with Justice John son. Tlio bill was presented in Court, aud gavo au insight into the daily habits of these eccentric females. Two dozen bottles of ale daily was required to wash down their frugal fare. Mustard, flour, beans, and quite a variety of articles were enumerated; but the capping of the cli max was an item of two bunohes of ou- ions! Just think of it, onions ! Miss Kirby eats goobers. His Honor studied tbo case, and come to the conclusion that the articles enu merated were such in quantity as are usu ally ordered by families, except the ale, which he thought was rather more so.— He therefore decreed that Miss Abbie would save much trouble by paying up.— The trio gathered their trails and left like blue smoke. NcBrlile & Co. Among the many firms in Atlanta that arc becoming noted for their enterprise and energy thero is none more deserving than that of McBrido & Co. This is one of the heaviest crockery firms in tho South. Besides its vast wholesale and retail trade, it does a. large importing business, buying the goods directly at the hands of European manufacturers. A member of the firm has lately been in Europe, where ho selected a large stock of the lutest styles of crockery, glass ware and other goods in their line. This firm is one that has done much for the, jobbing trade of Atlanta. They have used all legitimate means of bring ing their goods to the attention of the public, and sncccoded long ago in dc-riv ing a good trade from this and the ad joining States. The fact that they have been ablo to hold this trade and to steadi ly increase it, shows a strong argument in their favor. Wo tako great pleasure iu commending them to tho public. They aro able to sustain themselves under any demand thatamay be made upon them. J. X. Freeman. We nvo plenseil to notice tlint this gen tleman lias taken charge of and is now giving his personal attention to tho man agement of tho old nnd popular music house of Geo. Cook & Co., on Marietta Street. This establishment has gained a very desirable reputation; and ns a depot for musical instruments of overy kind is not surpassed by any establishment in the South. Tho favorite Qaliet, Davis & Co. Piano is n specialty with Goo. Cook & Co; whilo tho celebrated Shoninger Organ is offer ed on most reasonable terms. Their stock of instruments of every description is extensive; and thcro is no man in At lanta that it gives us more pleasure to recommend than Mr. Freeman. The la dies will liud them attentive and polite— always ready to wait on them patiently. Littlo boys must bo becoming giants, since somo of them are accused overy morning of throwing “rocks.” THE CUSTOM HOUSE. Na,w that little affair between the Cus tom officials and tho Government of the United States is all settled, that the Well man deficit is made up, and the authori ties at Washington are satisfied and quiet ed, that the milk in the cocoa-nut has been found, and the responsibility of that small eight thousand dollar difference rests upon the shoulders that ought to bear it; in other words, that tho trno de faulter has been hunted up, treed and brought down, pouring out tlio most pi ous adulations to his chief into the cure of Government, who, in order to reward the immaculate and evince its penitence for post suspicions and lack of confidence, rumors of removal and all such hasty con clusions, unjust and unfounded threats, finally, that the Government is assured of the unquestioned and unquestionable honesty, loyalty, efficiency and indispen- sible worth of tho great Collector, he is returned to his position, doubly fortified nud strengthened, with full power, it is said, to pluco, replace and displace whom soever he pleases iu the employment of the Government, so far ns the Custom House and its various branches aro con cerned. It is likely that whenever his spotless majesty takes a pinch of snuff his sub jects will sneeze, whether voluntarily or otherwise, and the stamp of his foot means “rats to your holes.” So, beware now, yo Custom House vermin, and mind your eyo. Take warning from the fate of the dead ducks, who once quacked with the best. Remember “old Bitters,” “Pine Apples,” and “Honey,” and don’t bo too kuowiug in matters that iWf con cern you. For tho benoflt of tho outs wo publish tho following changes that have recently been made.

Dnnstan is temporarily ap pointed as Weigher and Onager. The permanent appointment will be made shortly.—Sivannuh Feut, 3d. sv. Itullock’s Advertising— The Constitution. In our Issue of yesterday morning, speaking of Gov. Bullock having caused his long letter to the Kit Klux Committee to be extensively published in the newspapers in the United States by paying for the same as an adver tisement, we said: It was published by bim in tho Con stitution of this city, and the Ctmstitutwn- olitl, ot Augusta, for 850 each—so we art: informed from a source not likely to lie mistaken. Upon this, the Constitution, in its edition of lust evening, remarks: Tho statement that Gov. Bullock had Ilia letter published in the Constitution, paying 850 for the same, is an utter mis take. We intended to give a synopsis of the letter lor tho benefit of our readers, according to tlie rule of every well con ducted nows journal, to furnish general information of the eveuta and nows of the day. But one of our citizens camo to the office and offered to pay for its insertion. Wo stated that wo should charge him 850 for its publication in full. He agreed to pay it, and he was consequently charged upon tho books of the business office with that amount. Governor Bullock was not known in the transaction; nor did auy one in vhe business office of the Constitu tion dream that the publication was to bo an official advertisement; nor was it. It seems the only mistake we made in our statement, is, that though The Constitution published it as an ad vertisement, aud was paid 850 for the same, yet it was done at the in stance of a private party, and not by Governor Bullock as an “official ad vertisement.” We very cheerfully give our neigh bor the benefit of this statement. We did not suppose that what wo said would do The Con stitution any injustice, nor was such our object. We only aimed to establish tho fact that tho Gov ernor was paying the newspapers to publish his letter. It seems that some friend of his—probably holding some of the bonds lie is charged with hav ing illegally issued—procured the publication in Tlie Constitution— which amounts to about the same thing as if lie had done it directly himself. Wc tlii..k it likely that Gov. Bullock paid the 850, and that his go-between accomplished a grand feat for him, viz: flic publication of the long letter in (he columns of The Constitution, tlotj cheap; for wo are informed from a source not likely to be mistaken, that the Gov ernor paid other journals a much higher price—among which was 8150 to our friend Grady, to get it into the columns of the Homo Commer cial. In making these statements we do not mean any reflection upon the journals whioh published the letter. If it had been offered to ns as an ad vertisement, we should have pub lished it and commented on it.
