We see so many avtry day who deal in them and who claim re spectability and arrogate to themselves polish, but still use this kind of language. They ought to be sot down among (ho impolite. Their vooabulary ban been dis tilled, and instead of impuritioo escaping they have suffered tba pure liquid enrrent of English to vaporize and vanish forever and they can be reoeived in polite sooiety aa genteel Idiots — meaning no disraspeet to tba idiots. If a woman is not “ fast " or “ slow ” or a man a “brick” ahe or be eonld not be deeoribed by suoh a person. If one has met with reverses, ha his been “set on” and if not entertaining, n “bora.” If yon oak snob persons their opinion of (my- thing it ia always “splendid,” and with this last expression the omagi of the vo cabulary has been reached. In these terms they move in polite cirolev and have their being, and after leaving deoent people, retire to their oonoheo with the happy oonsolstory ides that they have been the planets of the satolitea of the oirolo. These words (?) are symbolio of suoh characters and axiomatic of their entire prooesa of lessoning aa may be termed too indolent and oonieqnantly too ignorant to discriminate—blank ehecka of common decency which can't ba filled, and, if fillad, navar honored. Bach trash is the dishwater from waahs ings of the lowest of humanity, yat the young, especially thorn who aspire to ig norance and the reputation of being pop nlarly enterleining and witty, nso them continuously. STILL TUBY COMB. The Mayor informed ns yesterday that the poor were continuing to come into the city from all quarters, to get work at the factories. They oome without a cent and are disappointed. Big talas are told them of the gold mines to he worked in this eity, things are magnified and thus they are caused to lsave where they were making a support, to oome to a plaoe to beg. Ten arrived a few days ago from Terrell oounty, and are now out of employment and unabia to return home where they desire to be after having seen the true otate of things. The county poor boose, the oity hospital and the Eagle A Phenix fsotory seem to have a wonderful reputation abroad. Paupers, tramps, dead- bests and beggars appear to make this the end of their pilgrimage. T.hey have reached the Holy Land and want to make their last prayer and die. This is the haven of rest, where noth ing but milk and honey flow, and where throe is an everlasting feasting. Thera is no sorrow hore, no mors working, and by their faith—their works (doing noth ing) —they hope to ait on the right hand side and be separated from the oommon heard of goats wbioh are daily biting short and half dead grass, tnd barely sub sist. MEETING OV TUB CITY LIGHT OVABBS. This oompsuy mot last night in their armory end unanimously eleoted Col. W. L. Salisbury Captain. A committee was ap pointed to wait upon him. It is not.known yet as to whether or not he will aooept, but they are going to take him in, as one of the oompany expressed it to us, vi et armie. The oompsny will most again uext Thursday night for the purpose of undergoing a thorough organiza tion. We hear it rumored that they are going to eleot Ex-Csptsin W. A. Little, ;First, Hr. Bin- ford, Seoond, and A. W. Brautly, Third Lientsnsnt. It is very probable that the two miUte. ry oompauies will jointly rent the armory wbioh the Light Guards now ocoupy. It seems that both companies are willing to this arrangement. TUB COTTON rlUVHBB. On last Friday the Financial Chronicle made the IT. B. port reoeipta 3,023,749 bales, an inorease of 64,227 over lost year; the New York Cotton Exohangs mads them 3,005,194, an increase of 49,833. The Chronicle't Interior Port tables show the receipts of the week to have been 23,911 against 42,482 last year, shipments 27,798 against 44,031 and stooks 109,281 against 194,406. The visible supply was' 3,140,972 — 68,682 mors than last year, 140,701 more thsu the year before and 89,983 preceding that. On Friday; Liverpool uplands were quoted at 6 9-lCd. in 1870 at Gjfi., in 187&.at 7jd., in 1874 at 8d. These figures, united with the fact that a very large orop is to ba planted, do not argue well for the future of ootton holders. It certainly seems that lower prices are to follow, and still lower may be expected in the fall. Farmers had bet ter be wise and plant every grain of oorn they can, for the ootton will be terribly low if the indications point aright. Excellent Shooting. A few days ago, Captain Joseph Irvin, of Harris oounty, shot and killed, at ona fire, five out of six turkey goblers, and thought he waa doing a poor business be- oanae he didn't get the sixth one. The shot were No. 3'a. The turkeys weighed eighty-five pounds and he sold the slaughter st *7.59.

Charleston Journal of Commerce: In 1802, while the Confederate troopewere attacking Fort Sumter from Morris Island, Ur. Franois A. Uitohell, the Cashier of the Booth Carolina Loan and Trnst Com pany,who was stationed with his company at that point, lost n gold penoil in the sand, and, after a fruitless search of several hours, gave it up for lost On Monday laat, a colored man brought the penoil to him, and asked if it waa his, stating that be had found it on Morris Is land, as it appears, in the identical spot in whioh it bed been dropped fifteen yean before. The penoil was muoh diseolorad by the salt, but was otherwise intaot, and the inscription, “Frans A. Mitohell,1859,'' was plainly visible.

The following deoiaion has just been promulgated by th* Supreme Court of the State of Georgia, and will be read with interest; The Central Bailroad and Banking Com pany, of Savannah, vs. Samuel Ander son. Suit for loss of freight—from Bibb. Jackson, J. 1. In a auit against a railroad oompsny for loss of freight on a oar loaded by the plaintiff, but the keys thereof retained by the egeuta of the oompsny, it is not error to exolnde from the jury evidenoe that it was the custom of the company not to be responaible for th* oonduot of its agents who held the keys, particularly if there was no notioe of such custom brought home to the plaintiff. 2. Nor in suoh a suit was it error to exolude evidenoe that when a oar is chartered by the com pany and loaded and unloaded by the own er of the goods, the oompany is not responsible for any losa whatever of any of the goods in suoh oar, especially if the company’s agents retain the keys, and thereby control oenstant access to the oontsnts of the oar, and more especially where their waa a special oontraot whioh fixed the company's liability. 3. In the oaae of s chartered oar, as in other oases of carriage or freight, the responsibility of the carrier begins with the delivery to it of the goods and ends with its delivery of them at the plaoe of destination, and in this, aa in other bailments, after proof of loss, burden is upon the oamer to show proper diligenoe, and in suoh car riage of freighte as in other modes, the presumption of law is against the carrier, '’ode § § 2,070, 2,004, 2,080. 4. If there be a special oontraot, suoh con tract if legal, will gov ern; and if the evidenoe as to the terms of the oontraot ba conflicting, and the jury find for tbs plaintiff, this conrt will not interfere, no error of law having been oommitted by th* presiding judge. Judg ment affirmed. A Kehabkable Woman. — The New York correepondent of the Boston Jour nal says: “Miss Pinkney, who lives in upper New York, is regarded os the wealthiest woman in the oity. She ia quite advanced, and her mother, who live* with her, ia nearly ninety. She own* six thousand oity lota, transacts her own business, and keeps her affaire in her own bands. The two women live together in a large stone oottage, and live in the simplest and plainest atyla. She gave the other day some intereating statements about real estate in New York: ‘The oity owes *131,000,000. There are *18,- 000,000 of unpaid assessment taxes to-day. Against my property, there are *400,000 assessments and taxes. A large portion of these aaeaamenta will not be isid. The owners of property prefer to et the oity take the lote, and trust to their ability to redeem them when times are better. Twelve per oant. is the inter est demanded by the oity after the first year. I have held my property in this way. Onoe in ton years there it a rise inresl estate. Then I sell off enough to clear my property, and hold on to the balanoe.’ ’ r The Composer of Kathleen Mavoub- neen.—Mademoiselle Titians sang re cently at the Guildhall, Plymouth, and in response to an encore gave the well known song, “ Kathleen Mavourueen,” In notic ing this the Western Newt tells the fol lowing story. The author of “Kathleen Mavonrneen” was Mr. Cronob, n Ply mouth mnsio master, who received for the copyright a £5 note. He left the town a quarter of a century ago. Exact ly a year ago Mademoiselle Titians, being in New York, gave “Kathleen” as an en oore, tho only time she did so while in the (State. It exoited a furore of applause, aud when it had subsided she was told that some man, presumed to be s lunatic, was fighting his wsy over the barriers from the pit to the flies (it was in the opera house) saying ha was determined to speak to Titians. The prims donna told them to let him oome in. On entering he burst into tears, sobbing oat, “Oh, Mile. Titiens, I never before heard my song snog ss yon have just sung it!” “Your song," was the reply: “why you are not Orouoh, surely ?” “I am indeed," rejoined the poor old compoeer, “end felt I must thank yon myself." Crouch had scraped together the two dollars for _ pit seat, little thinking to hear his now famous song made the most tolling mor- oesu of the night. .rngtap asd Eire. Mr. Louis J.
