Hand. The city Marshal of Acworth was in town yaeterday on a visit of business oombined with pleasure. He brought along his baton, and all day along he was perambulating the streets sith it un der his arm, to tho great disgust of our own eity police. He took tho shine clean off of anything in that line in At lanta. Bad Affliction. We saw a tolegr&phio dispatch yester day from Ool. Warren Aiken, of Oartcrs- ville, to Ool. Prather, of this eity, in which he says that two of his children had died that morning with some thing like diptberia, and a third one was hopelessly ill This is a severe affliction, and Ool. Aiken has the sympathy of his friends in this city iu his distress. Yesterday, Isaac P. Harris, Trcas urvr of the State Boad under Foster Bloilgctt, and B. W. Wrcnn, the General Passenger and Ticket Agent under the same administration, and still holding that position under Gov. Brown, were arrested. Both were eharged with larceny after Intel. They waived an examination, and each gave bond in the sum of $10,' 000. John Harris, lute Senator from Newton, (father of the accused) but uow of tliis city, and President of the Georgia National Bank, became the bondsman of Isaac P. Harris, and K. L. Jones, Esq., Cashier of the sunie Hank, ligned the bond with Mr, Wrcnn. We learn tliut Mr. Harris admits that he bus money in his hands be longing to the State, which he is ready to pay over to uny one projierly authorized to receive it, uud has been ready to do so ever since the lease, whenever he can, by so doing, hav his bondsmen relieved. We arc also informed that Mr. Wrcnn nuikes the same or u similar statement. We did not hear these gentlemen make this statement, but suppose it is true. If it lie so, there must be some virtue in ar rests, os we never heard of these state ments having been mode till after they were arrested. We dare say that if they lmd publicly made this statement, giving the amount of money justly belonging to the State in their hands, declaring their read! ness to pay it to any one authorized to receive it, uud showing legal obsta cles in the way of pnying it over to the State Treasurer, and obtaining at the sumc time a full discharge from all responsibility or liability on ac count of the Bame, that they never would have been arrested, and public suspicion would never have fallen upon them—especially, if they bad publicly manifested their disapproba tion of (lie course of 1 luisc who, like them, hud in their hands money be longing to the State, which it seems had to be found out by others. Some such thoughts us these rise lip in the mind, iu spite of charity. Have hams without skippers. See eanl. THE Kt'-KLIIX IK .IA 11.. How a Whit. County Mao I. Frl*M- HI AVOIDS COIHT. A Water Haul—No Caeca ami no Money. Reuben Jones, Esq., Senator elect from the 9th District ot Georgia, was in to see us yesterday. "Reub” is the eldest sou of “Cotton” Jones, of this city, hut livos in Baker oounty. His old friends and acquaintances in Chambers county, Ala., hi. old home, congratulate tho voters of the 9th in selecting such an honest nun to represent them. I entered a ducal palace— A palace stately and old; Ita vast aaloona were glowing With marble, and rich wiUi gold. On the table, In tender morale, Were marvelousfruita and flowers; Ou tho walla were Pouaalu’a landscape*, With their aunabluc* and ahadod bowers. If a man hod entered tho Mayor's Court yesterday morning ho might have imagined it a dtier l palace, and tho May or a duke. It was certainly stately aud old—very old; but its vast saloons were not glowing with marble, nor were they rich with gold, for tho whole crowd put togethor could uot prodneo five dollars in greenbacks, to say nothiug of gold. JOHN ALEXANDER was laid on the tabic in tender mosaic, but there was no marvelous fruits and flowers there. He was accused of disor derly conduct uud profanity, but owing to some hitch in the testimony bis ease was carried over to this morning. EMMA PRICE did not sot much price on the city ordi nance in relation to hard swearing, and cuss she would. She was a guy old gnl, and wiui disposed to dwell among the roses. She was singing the song c mcneing, And Iu tho vim before me Were roeea white au«l red; The train lead ot negro cxeunuuniata w ho wont to Athena Inst Friday returned yesterday. We did not enquire or learn w hether they had a pleasant visit or not, or whether the Athens niggers mode any thing by the trip. One thing, however, we venture to any ia, that if the Asiatic Cholera tlwuU reach our own shores, the Athenians need fear no trouble iu their town. Five hundred Atlanta negroes Bwcltering three days in the mouth of August in a small towu like Athens is a sure preventive against anything Asia enn produce. There is consolation in nil things. »..

She got so drunk that she imagined the crown of England was offered her, and said, Tike) tho costly splendor—take the wonderful triumphs of art; but give mo living Nature which speaks to my soul and heart." Tho Judge told her that if the straight talc wasn’t told by this morning’s ses sion he would make tho work of paying tto expenses a splendid work of muni- cfal art, and would speak to her soul in a manner truly sublime. Thus were tbo three cases postponed, and not a cent in the treasury, It was such a falling off from tho day before that His Honor wanted to know of Wil Hams if the crowd had come up from tho oalabooee yet When informed that it had, a smile of genuine satisfaction over spread his countenance, and the Court waa d’smi^scd. In tho jail of this oounty is a man from White county, who was put there for evading in some way, the revenue law in regard to distilling. He is a good hearted, simple fellow, and thinks he has committed a hanging crime. He is in the same room with McLaughlin and several other prisoners, who have worked upon the simpleton’s credulity to such an extent that he is fully convinced that the Ku-Klux will break into jail some niglit, take him out and hang him for distilling peaches without license. For two nights the poor fellow has slept scarcely any~the hoys keeping him awake by rapping on the walls, and asking for him in a disguised voice. Yesterday he told the Sheriff about it, and the joke was explained. Francis Hancock is bis name, and Mc Laughlin has gotten up an imaginary address from him to tho jailor of Fulton county, which is given below : a poor orpliau boy, from tbo county of White, And in youth waa uot taught to box nor to fight; But in handling the plough, or the hoc, I’m quite frisky, Aud can beat the very devil in making corn whisky. •• Last week I’d occasion from borne for to stray, When Ifmet some d—d Yankees along by the way: They searched in my wagon, and quite wroth they did wax, Just because I’d some whisky, and hadn’t paid special tax. To Atlanta you must go I’m quite sure aud sartaiu, Said a Deputy Marshal, by tho name of Hank Martin; It is therefore no use for to w ?ep nor to wail, You’ll find comfortuble quarters in Fulton County Jail. So dear Jailor I’m with you at last, and don’t fail To hunt up some friends who will for me go bail; This place is too hot, and the inmates a sight, I fear if I stop long they'll kill mo out right. Dear sir I’m uot guilty of tho charge they’ve preferred, Although I’ve no doubt a different to’e you have beard. Could I only iqfloce you tbo door to un lock, You should have tho hist dollar from Fiances Hancock. The AlexanderCaae. The case of the State against James Alexander, charged with murder, was adjudged by Justice Johnson yesterday morning. As n magistrate cannot grant bail in a case of this description, he was committed to jail. Sulwequentjy the case was laid before Judge Hopkins, of the Superior Court, who will hear the argument of the counsel on Friday. The usual crowd of negroes were gath ered about the court house at an early liour, ;uul as the prisoner did not make his appearance, they thought some trick was being played upon their curiosity. As wo before said, if a crowd of savage, worthless, irresponsible negroes ura to intimidate the law-abiding citizens of this place, the sooner wo abolish all forms the bettor. Prompt aud determined ac tion on the part of the officers will go fur towards quieting the riotous proclivi- iii* of these negroes. IIPRKIIE COl'Ei' UK UPORGIA. 7. Cluittnhooclico “ .. 23 N.

We find the following dispatch iu the Savannah Alrertiscr, which reached us yesterday. Wo publish it for what it is worth : [Special Dispatch to the Daily Advertiser.] Washington, August 21.—It is believed in New York that H. L Kimball has failed in Georgia, the same as he did in Connecticut and Nevada. In the former State he failed for four hundred thou sand dollars. Holders of his scrip should look well to their interest, as it is regar ded in financial circles as utterly worth leas. Quite a number of Kimball’s South ern creditors have gone North to hunt him up. It is believed that neither Kimball nor Bullock dare return to Oeorgia. It is said that Bullock is building a barn on his McAfee farm, in Cobb county, which has already cost fifteen thousand dollare and is not near finished. Its final cost will far exceed Bullock’s salary for the entire term for which he was elected Governor. The Daily Ickwr. 8inco tbo refreshing showers visited ns yesterday morning the pooplo have quieted down tremendously. During the dusty season everybody wus so full of dust that dirt slinging was a material consequence. On tho street, folks were so dusty and dry that the only way to keep ont of a fight was to profer drinks or "dust out.” At the Mayor's Court things looked pretty well parched up; and one of the witnesses, who was a man of decoctions, involuntarily asked the Mayor and Court when the book was presented, “Gentlemen, what will you have?” The Clerk smiled a smole, and answered “the truth, nothing bnt the truth, &C.” At the Kimball House there was a slight coolness at the Chief Mar shal’s office; but still the dust pervaded that sanctorum, and everybody bad to “wet up” occasionally. At the calaboose, Johnson sweltered and looked dry, and waited all day for tho arrivul ot|a pris oner who had a bottle in his pocket—bnt no appearenoe, and ho stood the dust till late, when he dropped in at the Na tional to see Fence—as he thought there was surely water at the terry. Then Tweedy’s ice house was searched out, and notwithstanding he had several tons of congealed water, tho dust was in every crevice, but it was finally wiped out with a few leaves of Rose's best. Iu truth, there never had been such a dusty time; and now that the rains have come and settled the dust, all hands look happy. As an item of genuine, unadulterated nows, we hereby announce the falling of a most refreshing rain yesterday. It commenced just after tho terrible iijuioon of dust had censed, and consequently we do not feel ns grateful for it, perhaps, as we should. It was just a day too late to savo a great deal of sore eyes and “cuss.” It is said by Judgo $ara. Lawrence that Wadsworth gnvo Fox a knife. What use tho gentleman had for it, and what object Wadsworth had in giving it, tho Judge did not say. Joseph Fry. We are indebted to Col. E. Y. Clarke, of the Constitution, for a copy of the fol lowing letter addressed to him by Mr. Fry, in GfcpUu&tion pf tho reports about his absconding, Ac., which w© lay before our readers: LETTER FROM JOSEPH FRY.—HE DECLARES HIS INTENTION TO MEET ALL CHARGES AGAINST DIM. K. Y. Clarke, Esq., Editor Constitution. I addressed you a letter a few days since requesting you to furnish it also to the Sun and Efa, but withdrew tbo same on arrival, as being here, I thought it best to make my statement ip this form: Tho public generally seem to bo under the impression that I absented myself from the city somo ten days ago be can* e of my inability to successfully meet cer tain charges made by Mr. Blodgett. It is also surmised that after having been so suddenly arrested and placed under bond for appeorapee, I became alarmed lest further investigations should take place. In explanation of my absence J can say, that I left Atlanta with tho intention of attending to some important business of my own, in uo wuy connected with tho transactions that have taken place sinco. When I was arrested and gave the bond on tbo 12th or 13th instant, it was at my own urgent request, so that I might feel protected during my absence. The bond was given iu good faith, uud my conduct in the future shall clearly oou- viuce tho people of that fact I am ready now, as I have been in the past, to meet before the courts any and all charges made against me in regard to illegal State Road transactions. In the Hotch kiss trial several utterly falto statements wore made, especially whore reference was made as to what I had said or dope. To refute such evidence will bo an easy matter when tho proper timo arrives. Respectfully, Jos. Fry. Atlauta, Go., Aug. 23, 1871. Pnlck Work. To Printer*.

Noble, of Afontgomery, started to Columbus ou a visit. By sjiuii means, or other, sbo was put iu poesessiou of the wrong check or the oliecka on the trunks wore changed. At any rate when she got to Columbus tho check she had call- od for baggage which was not hers, while her trunk, the oontents of which were valued at 81,000, was not ou them. Of course tho Mj was greatly put out and an immediate quest (of the trunk was commenced. Up to last Saturday, | however, tho search was fruitless. But on that day the husband of tbs lady came to Atlanta and sought tho assist ance of Messrs. Murphy and Rssbttry, detective agents. Sunday night Captain ltasburyleft tho city in search of the trunk and on Tuesday evening he re turned having it in his possession with its contents intact lia overtook it in South Carolina, near a plane named Windsor, aud twelve miles from the near est railroad. This was pretty quiok work. Tk. Kir. XV.Mlar Might. I.o.-al :.nrt Nellce. tap Gbkat Rauuaikh.—For sale—two lirst-elasri Engine*. Apply to Porter d Butler, Machinists.
