Tlhffi R«ltef Law Afffita Wfan ths prMtd Cowrt. In the argument of the case of OoL 0. B. Wellborn, of this city, vs. Hon. War- ten Akin, before the Supreme Court yes terday, Hon. Hilton A. Candler, of De catur, raised tome new points on the Be lief AM of 1870. Our readers will reoollect that the Su preme Court has, during its present ses sion, held that the Belief law is Consti tutional and valid. Mr. Candler yester day presented these points not hereto fore made: 1st That the Act on its passage by the House of Bcpresentativee was not read three times, as required by the Constitu tion. Id. That this Act has reference to more than one subject matter—whereas tho Constitution requires that all laws shall have reference to one and only one sub ject 3d. That the Constitution requires that all laws, to be valid, shall be general in their operation; and that thia law is not according to this requirement Mr. Candler was a Senator, and knows something of (he unlawful proceedings of the late peculating Legislature. We learn that he offers the Journals of the House, besides other ovidonoe, that the bil) was not rood tho three different times as required by the Constitution. If this bo true, the Court cannot it would soem, frame an excuse for sustaining tho law again. TM. Pair ProspvcI.

Proceedings of Clly Council. Narrow Rouge Railroad Design. Not long since wu colled attention to tho great number of railroads chartered by the late Legislature (so-callod), to which aid, in theshapoof indorsing their bonds, by the State, was granted; and predicted that every ono that was built would prove to be a loss to the State. Since that time we have hoard it whis pered about that the programme is to oommenoe the work on most or all of them on the narrow gauge plan, and claim and confidentially expect, to receive from the Governor the full amount of indorsement intended for the broad gauge system. Now we would like to know if this is really true? Is this the intention of the Corporators? Will any one of them answer plainly. If this be the intention, we would like to know if Gov. Bullook or any State official baa given any intimation that the Bonds, in such a case, will be indorsed? We ask our people overy whore, to take this matter seriously into consideration, end let their voioo be heard in unmistak able tones, announcing the full determi nation, to bold every man who aids in getting a dollar wrongfully out of the Treasury, strictly to account for the same.' j fit And we specially ask the people not to allow these Bailroad schemes to be used as engines at corruption, to save Bullook and his coadjutors from the punish ment they dteerve. Using Iks Tslsgrapk. We understood last evening that A. L. Harris ex-Masterof Transportation, now under arrest on a charge of cheating and swindling the State, was engaged yester day in extensive telegraphic operations— sending and receiving quite a number of dispatches during the day. AssUar Bsllrasl Lease. We have leaned (no doubt reliably) that the Pennsylvania Central Railroad has leased ^he Atlanta and West Point rood—the opn tract to commenoe on Mon day next. This is a mast important Bail road move—not only to all who are per- ■ inally interested, but to this city and the public generally. The Pennsylvania Central is the strongest corporation in Amatisa. It will aakathe Atlanta and We* Point bailroad a very useful and a very important feeder in the West. Wks Cm Ian. If the rain now prevailing in this sec tion, is extended over much of the cotton region, we fhar it will destroy many of the big calculations mode on tho cotton crop, by Northern and BngBah specula tors; and frqm four and a quarter mil lions, the South will come below two mil lion bales. The proepeot, at beat, is very poor; and if planters are prevented much longer from gathering as fast aa the boll opens, a greet deal will be wasted; and continued wet feather will cause much of the fruit to xot. We have no “greet expectations’* about the cotton crop. Present, His Honor and a quorum of Council. Minutes of lost meeting read und ap proved. A1TEAL CASKS.

Howard'* Address at Norcroas. Day before yesterday, Col. T. C. How ard, who has been employed by the Ag ricultural Society to travel and lecture, delivered a most stirring and eloquent address to the citizens of Norcross and vicinity. The peoplo of that place and tho surrounding country—including a very large numlier of ladies—turn ed out almost en matte to hear the address ; and right well were they paid for going. Tho Colonel may well congratulate himself upon tho good there accomplished. Thu address was a regular old fashion ml pump-meeting rouser, not only full of his happy flights of eloquonce, which in his inimitable and jaculiar stylo, such as no other man in the State jsissesses; but it was a masterly demonstration of the practicability and vast importance of improved and cientific cultivation of the soil and general farm management. Ha gave tho old farmers who havo been ploughing and hoeing all their lives, ideas of advantages in the method of working und using aj>plianccs within their reach, in the raising of produce and stock, und manufacturing guano nt homo, whieli they had never dreamed of before. Ho gave the ladies new ideas and views of house keeping, gardening Ac., with which they were all enthused, lie was warmly applauded and congrat ulated. The result of this lecture is that u meet ing of tho people of NorcroBs and vicinity will be held this evoning, to organize a local Agricultural Society. We have no doubt thutgood seed lias been sown upon good soil, which will bring forth good fruit. Colonel Howurd is the right men for tho work. Tho Society have made wise selection. He is earnest and enthn- siostiu in the cause, and will be very use ful, not only to the Society, but to the people of Georgia. Ho addresses the oitizons of Hall county at Gainesville to day. A list of his appointments will be found iu the columns of The Sun. We can assure all that they are worth attend ing. Tbs ltfwtl|*llm Committee. The Committee of citizens having custody of the State Road Books, and their clerks, ore wearily plodding through the piles of records and labyrinth of fig ures inscribed upon their pages. We cannot see anything like an early end to their labors. No doubt, how- ] not unexpected. Before the war, Col. ever, their servioes will be worth j Dowdell was a Representative in Congress much. They will, in the first place, take core of the records. In the next, they will do much towarils ascer taining the balances on the books and getting them in an intelligible shape, to be ready for the use of the Legislature when it meets. What is mostly needed at this time, however, is a committee of the Legislature to take charge of the matter in hand, who will have authority to compel the attendance of witnesses and the production of papers instanter. The labors of the present committee will be worth mach, bat they havo no power. Hot Botcher Jim. In onr Police Court report of last Fri day morning we mentioned the case of James Parker as being fined $10 for be ing drunk. Now, several of the friends of Jimmie Parker, the butcher, have been “running” him os the person named. We desire to ssy in justice to to Mr. Parker that he was not tho man, and he tells that no doubt at the very time tho drunken Parker was being tried he was slicing off nice beef-steaks at his stall.

Atlanta, Sept 14, 1871. According to previous notice, a large number of Democrats met to-night, order to organize the “First Ward Anx iliary Democratic Club.” A temporary organization waa effected, by calling C. P. Cassin to the chair, and requesting J. A. Anderson to act as Secretary. On motion, the Chair appointed the following persona: S. D. Hash lett, M. T. Castleberry, W. 'J. Lumpkin ami J. T. Spence, a committee to prepare business for the meeting. On motion, the Chairman was added to the committee, and Col. W. H. Hul sey called to the choir, during his ab sence with the committee. While the committee were preparing their report, brief, but pointed speeches were made by Col. W. H. Hulsey, Col. E. F. Hope, Capt. W. T. Newman, Dr. G. 8. C*.ssiii, John B. Goodwin and John Thomas. The Committee reported a series of resolutions indorsing the old, time-hon ored Jeffersonian Democracy, and show ing the necessity of organization to res cue Georgia, and the conntiy generally, from Radical domination. They were unanimously adopted. A permanent organization was now ef fected by the unanimous choico of Col. 8. S. Fears, President; M. T. Castleber ry, V. P. Sisson, und C. W.

No less remarkable is it with some late pear trees on my lot Soon after the hail the leaves on several of them commenced dropping, and I feared they were dying from the effects of drought. They continued drcmping until one tree was literally denuded of leaves bat a con siderablc portion of the pears remained on. Now two of the trees have the pears yet unripe, whilo also a new set of leaves, more than half grown, arc growing flour ishingly, and blooms are coming also— some full grown. The first we noticed of the budding was last Sunday; since then they have grown very rapidly. The pears are a late kind aud are sound and bard. T. 8. Reynolds.
