The Mayor and Council are to elect the Judge of this Court at their fiist regular meeting in January next, who is to hold his office four yearn. He is to be com- missioned by the Governor, and nay be removed by the Governor on ad dress of two-thirds of the General Assembly. The City Council has power to fill vacancies for nnexpired terms. This Jndge is required to be a lawyer, not less than twenty-five yean of age. His salary is to be $2,600 per annum. The Solicitor General of the Atlanta Circuit is required to prosecute all offen ses before this Court; and the Clerk of the Superior Court and Sheriff of Fulton county, and their deputies, ore mode ex- officio offioera of this Court The Judge has authority to issue writs of habeas corpus, and bear and determine the same; shall have jurisdiction of all claim cases where personal property is levied au, and uM mortgages on personal property, where the amount involved is not beyond the jurisdiction of the Court The Court is to hold quarterly sessions, meeting on the first Mondays of Juno and December for eivil and criminal bus* iness; and on the first Mondays of Mareli and September for criminal business ex clusively.

A Record sit's Court for Atlanta— The ihcoming Mayor of Atlanta will be relioved of tlio duty of holding a court every day for the trial of offansea against the city. The Legislature at its late session passed an act to amend the charter of the oity, so os to provide for the election of an Auditor and Reoorder. It provides that the Mayor and Council, at their an nual elections of city officers, may elect a Recorder, whose duty it shall bo to pre side at the oity courts, known its the Mayor’s Courts, with full and ample au thority to try and dispose of all causes within the jurisdiction of the Mayor Courts, whose salary shall be fixed by the Mayor and Council prior to his elec tion, which ehaU not be increased or di miniehed while in office; that be may be removed at any time by the Mayor and Council for malpractice or incompetency and a vacancy from any cause may l>e filled by the Mayor and Council. This will not only relieve the Mayor of this (tyty, and give him bjtter opportu nity to Oonsider and properly provide for its general wants and financial interests, but by assigning the enforcement of our police regulations to one mau, who will have that duty only to attend to, the laws ,w«n bo more rigidly enforced, aud crime will be lessened—provided a competent man iscluueato fUl the important office. This we hope will be done. Gome to Work nr Earichot.—Mr. James is prej>aring for the duties of the important office he is about to assume, like a man who fully understands the re sponsible duties which will devolve upon him. Last evening there was a meeting held at his banking house of all the members elect of the new Council, at which he ap pointed his committees for the nextyear, whose names wo announce elsewhere. This step was taken by him to prevent any person from further soliciting him for positions on committees. He is de termined to go into office untrammeled, and resolved upon an economical and efficient administration of the city gov ernment He has the capacity, energy, industry and patriotism to do the work. Commissioners of Water Works.— The new City Council in January will elect Water Works Commissioners for the Cth and 7th Wards. Will the .beet men in those Wards come forward and announce themselves as candidates, and be elected ? No pay is attached to the office—nothing but the honor of serving the people faithfully and efficiently. We want feu economical and worthy admin istration of the Water Works system. Coi*. L. P.

He is a mem ber of our next Council, where his expe rience and practical knowledge will be worth much to the city. The committee to examine into the affairs of the Western and Atlantic Railroad ought to have the services of just such a man. Aeronautical.—An amateur balloon ascension took place in front of the Kim ball Hoi.bt. yesterday afternoon. Au en thusiastic young gentleman purchased the entire stock of a peripatetic balloon peddler, and turned the whole lot loose to the tender mercies of the breezes. The miniature high-flyers sailed away ns gallantly as ever a balloon sailed, and the short space of about two minutes were lost to sight, and were, no donbt, to the memory of him who made the invest ment dear. Postponed Sale To day.—At 2 o’clock to-duy Col. G. W. Adair will sell those 39 lots on McDaniel street, near L. 0. Welle. These lots overlook the city and are near the Street Railroad. Cm Auditor.—\Yo have long needed in onreity administration, an Auditor of public accounts. Our Council has hith erto had a Finance Committee, who hav given n very hasty examination to such claims against the city, and it may be that thousands upon thousands of dot lars are paid out annually, which might be sawed, it a competent person, whose sole duty it would be, should carefully scrutinize over} account, at his leisure, before they come before the Council for thfl flip*1 action of that body. tablishing the office of Auditor for the city, who shall be elected by tho Mayor and Council, and his compensation fixed tho woo ns the Recorder r ‘lt shall be the duty of tho Au ditor,** “to audit all accounts agtfau* the dty, and certify that they ate correct, or incorrect, os the case may be, before thqy are passed up.

Mayor’s Court.—The distinguished success of His Honor’s entertainment on Monday morning, attracted a large and enthusiastic audience yesterday. No programme had beeu announced, bnt we saw some of the artists engaged for the occasion, and we were convinced that His Honor was prepared to act in style par e.rccUettce, any drama from Hamlet down to a roaring farce. The curtain arose, and Johnson, with the most royal sanctity, announced, amid tremendous upplauce, the bran new 8crio-comedy of MAT. DEWBERRY, or the “woman in scarlet. ” This is the chef d'aurre of His Honor, and will go down to posterity as a monument of his dramatic talent Tho scene of this new sensational drama was laid chiefly iu Beelzebub Park, that princely region of tha city surrounding the United States Barracks. Here, Mat Dewberry, sur rounded and courted by ambassadors and princes from every clime, lived in a regal palace of Oriental splendor. •• Btnut-ra yellow, glorious, guidon. On IU roof did fleet end flow. (Tide—ell this—wee in the olden Time long ego;) And every gentle air that dallied In that aweet day, Aloug the ramparth plumed and pallid, A winged odor went away/* And in the ]>alaco the stars nightly mingled their heavenly light with the most gorgeous revelry, dancing and ban quitting. But one night (uow comes the tragical denouement) a haughty and mysterious stranger came. He wore a magic silver star ou his coat of purple, and bore in his hand a heavy baton, and instead of foil ing at tho feet of the siren queen, he lead her (in her scarlet robe) along a wide pas sage thronged with people, to a dread irilmual, whereon sat a Judge, whose brow was dark and lowering, nnd will in- flex iblo as a Spanish inquisition. This terrostiul arl iter commanded the scarlet queen to desist from her sinful revelings, lay asido her scarlet robe, and to deliver unto him fifty pieces of silver, and then to complete his cruelty, cast her into prison. The off ting scene excited the sympa FONTS OUTER, jin African princess and femmede chumbre of llie unfortunate sorceress qtieou came forward with 100 pieces of silver to buy her freedom and ransom lior royal mis tress. She was accompanied by a wizzard soothsayer and fortune-teller, who intimi dated His Honor, aud threatened to scourge his domain with “scarlet coats to Kingdom come,” and His Honor relented iu consideration of $100.

After this came SOUE FARCES, in which bar-room keepers figured con- ssiauoualy.

And my loving mother whispered mo— •Don’t drink, sty boy, to-night.’ ” His Honor told him to go away and do so no more; when HANDY ALEXANDER, another aspiring pugilist, came forward to sing her praise* and recount her achievements, but His Honor raid 85 would do as well A Merino of m Members of nra New Cooecsl.—Last evening st 4 o’clock, the Mnynr, and *11 the members of the City Council elect, held SB informal meeting at the Banking house of Mr. James. All were preeent, and in a busi ness like wsy they proceeded to the con sul ratio* of nutter* of importance in connection with their duties forjthe com ing year. The follow ng ore the points agreed upon, to be carried out by them when they sliall have been qualified. They resolved to have only one person to diucharge the duties of the offices of Becorder and Auditor. To elect two Deputy Marshals. To elect seven Oity Physicians—one for each Ward, and these seven shall con- stitute the Board of Health. The police to be uniformed without delay. To appoint a keeper and n physician for the county alms boose, or poor honse.

A determination was manifested to re duce expenses and administer the city government ooonomicaliy. They all agreed to meet the expenses by the in come of the oity, and to issue no more city bonds than what are new out, or contracted for. We, the undersigned members of the Bar, who have been in attendance on the Superior Court during the present term, desire to testify to the very faith ful and efficient manner in which Patrick Fitzgibbon discharges his duty as Keeper of the City Hall, and attending the Bar.

Pemuerton, Taylor & Co.—This pop ular Drug House is certainly a beautiful tight to behold, and their Holiday Gifts and Fancy Goods make a most imposing spectacle. Many persons pay to go to shows, which are not worth half so much to look at as this, which can be looked at and the eyes and the heart feasted and delighted—just for nothing—only to go and see it. Land Mark Departing. — 1 That cient building on Loyd street, known as the Tennessee Honse, is being torn away, possibly to make room for a better* No Imilding, however, would be a great improvement upon tho old cookery that has stood there for so many years, doing service in many Opacities. University High School.—This school, attached to Oglethorpe College, under the tutorship of Professor J. A. Richardson closed a successful term yesterday. He has had from eighty to ninety students. A short recess is now given till the 2d day of January. Prof. R. goes to Col umbus this morning to spend Christmas. Married.—The most brilliant social event of the season, came off last night at the Central Presbyterian Church. It was the marriage of Mr. T. J. Phillips to Miss Evie, daughter of Judge J.

James Robinson, Frank Mobley, Geo. Fhefcr, W. R. Phillips, jr., W. H. Mitchell, J. O. Boyd, A. J. Bell. A very largo assemblage of friends witnessed the ceremony, after which a very elegant reception was given by Mr. and Mrs. Hayden, at their residence on Marietta street Burglary.—Handy Sanders was ar raigned yesterday before Judge Smith, charged with breaking into the honso of Mr. Cauthorn, on Marietta street, on the night of the 13th instant, end ebetraeting some coats, hits, etc. He was bound over for larceny, and committed to jail in a default of bail; Howard Van Epps, counsel for defense. Maudy Mitchell, Julius Glass, Lucy Holt, Mattie Holt, and Pierce St John, were, also, arraigned, charged with breaking into aad entering the hoese of J. O. Simmons, on Marietta street, ou the night of the 13th inst, aud stealing about 160 ponnds of meat Julius Glass and Lucy Holt were committed to jail in default of bail. The others were dis- charged through the -efforts of Howard Van Epps, counsel for defense. A Fin Imunurcn Company a Atlam- ta.—We specially call attention to the advertisement of “ The Georgia Empire Fire Insurance Company,** which is now in process of formation in this oity. It is being taken hold of by our most sub stantial business men, who do not fail in anything they undertake. The company will be organized, and some such sterling man as John H. James will be made its President. They have undertaken this thiDg in good earnest, to build up a strong substantial Insurance Company in this city, in which our own people can insure their property. Holiday Goods.—The store of Messrs. McBride k Co., on Marietta street, is “a thing of beauty and a joy,** at least for a season. Never was there such a bril liant display of holiday goods in the city, embracing everything that is ele gant and suitable for presents. They have a thousand toilet sets, of various styles and designs, some of which are real wonders of art. They have the largest, most beautiful and cheapest vases ever brought South. They huve a superb stock of statuettes—Parisian and bronzes — single pieces, groups and sets. Tobacco boxes of quaint and curious devices. Cutlery, fancy, for ladies aud gentlemen. In fact, it is impossible to enumerate half immense stock. It must he seen to be half appreciated. Its beauty can hardly be imagined. Indeed, it never entered into the mind of ordinary man to con ceive that glass and metal and porcelain could be brought into such various aud beautnui .^upes as are to be seen every where in the State. It is splendid to look at, and tho stock is so cheap that folks of moderate means need look no farther for presents, or for articles of general utility. The house deserves the amplest credit far the great energy it is displaying this season. Hogansvillb Male and Female In stitute.—We call the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Prof. Geo. C. Looney, President of the abeve named Institute. Prof. Looney is an experienced instructor, who has followed the profession of his choice with zeal and with morkod ability and success for years. He is thoroughly gifted in the art of imparting to others what he kiows himself, and making those impressions lasting. Mrs. Moulton’s Second Concert.— Notwithstanding the various festivals this city last evening, Mrs. Moulton was again greeted with a flattering audience. Iu the opinion of manv, she sang with more effect and with a bet ter understand ing of the tastes and preferences of the audience, than the evening before. Un fortunately for both her and her au- dienoe, her programmes are ranged before she has consulted the mu sical status and appreciation of her audi ence. It would greatly enhance her popu larity and the general effect of her per formance, were ahe to acquaint herself with some of the airs, both social and operatic, familiar to immediate hearers. But her visit here, notwithstanding, has been the source of untold pleasure to large and elegant audiences, and she leaves manv admirers behind. Siguor Ferranti, tbe famous baritone, has won golden opinions as a powerful and irrepressible humorist, anil Mr. Brookhouso Bowler has won the distiuc- tion as being one of the most delightful tenors on tho stage; and as for Mr. James M. Welhi, his thrilling touch on Weber is absolutely peerless. It awakens emo tions of more sublimated tones in another sphere. Local & Business Notices.
