We wish them success. Lack or does seem fo us that • spirit of enterprise is lacking on the part of some of our property-holders. In the present scarcity of bosineze bouses, and the fabulous rents they command, the erection of stores and residences on the burnt districts, at the inter section of Molberry and Third ‘.treats, First and Mulberry, and also the seen© of late conflagra tion on Cotton Avenue, between Poplar and Cherry streets, could bo made to pay. Wo should think food, substantial stores on tbeao now va- rJtit and useless lots would be more profitable than any speculation that could be entered into, not excepting even cotton.

The character of the builder gives ample guarantee that the building will not only be well furnished Out an ornament to that portion of one of the principal business streets of the city. We should lik ? to see more evident** of the spirit of improvement on the part of our prop erty-holders; though the lack of building mate rial may have something to do with it. Fo* the HoWDAfi.—Extensive preparations have been made in every department of mer chandising in Macon, for holding high carnival during Christmas time. One of tha largest, moat .elect and beautiful sloes* of goods of every de scription, r*peclally for ladies' watr, including ho finest silks, silk velvets, cloaks, fc clegan- bankcrchlcfs. find PdrhiftB made gloves, splcn .lid feathers, tha prettiest bats, stylish shoes, and every other choice article of dress that can he found in a perfect wholesale and retail dry foods store, can be hail at astonishingly low ales, at the store of *5. Peyser A Co., Cotton Av ail*. The past week has been an extraordinary busy time at their large establishment. Tho crowds of ladies that constantly thronged their salesroom exhibited much eagerneu to secure ibe bargains that were effected. The same re duced prices will be continued next weet, and wo invite, the attention of every person who wish** to secure bargains of 6. Ptvsin, A Co. A Paorxssiosab Cz uoht.—Yesterday a man named Edmondson, alias Thompson, wes arrostad •nd **boosed,** for stealing n couple of bales of cotton trom tha wart-house of Mr. Lowe, In East Macon, v It is stated that be effected an entrance into tha warehouse, drove up his wagon, placed tbs cotton therein, and brouglft it to this city for isle. On being searched, two keys were found on his person—one a car key, and tha other ft -skeleton." We saw the latter tried, and it worked like a charm on every lock in which it could enter. Cob Cummings things this Edwards is an old offender, and that his arrest may lead o more important results. Mat on’s Cocrt.-—Jerry, an aged darkey, keep, a grocery down town, in which it is supposed no •red eye' is dispensed to th irsty customers. But a man was found who swore to buying a drink in Uncle Jeremiah's doggery. The case looked extremely billious at the offset for the aged nig, but it came out in the testimony that one of the old man's clerks—a white man—bad * Id the erdent to tho thirsting man, out of a bottle he bad provided for his Christmas use.' T.ee old darkey talked like a colored preacher at a. nigger funeral and to the point, and the Mayor, in con sideration of JcTry’s hitherto good character, and the fact that the resinous liquid was peddled •'unbeknownst" to him, let him off on payment of costs. Geo. Lawson, a hurley negro, pitched into a fellow-citizen of African 'scent, whom, it seemed, ,.ws4 him some money wtych he was loath to nay. The attack w** made with knife in hand, which an officer luckily saw, end immediately grabbed the* ssailant. He resisted, but the offi cer succeeded in bringing him before the Mayor. George stated that ho had no idea of using the weapon on bis fraudulent debtor, for though he had been cutting up hogs he did not wish to carve He was given the choice of A sign to that effact glitters over tho arch doorway of L C. Plant’s banking house. Stocks—A large business was dose in stocks One of the heaviest transactions in this line,eve. made in this country, occurred on Thursday. GeocCkizs.—A good trade was done in liquors, in anticipation of the gay-low-rye-u« holidays. Fcovisxoxs—A steady and good trade was done in this line. Much of it was In fancy articles, anticipating the cake and candy aeason that Jtriss Kringle, nee Santa Claus presides over. Ecus.—An Immense trade was done in hen fruit, at a dollar a dosen. Judging by the storoa of the articles that have been laid in by every body and everybody's wife, there will bo much eggnog, and many silly bub* made during the Christmas times. To gobble turkeys, cost our peoplo five dollars x chance. We put our serious protest on roost against such Turkish extortion, though we sup pose that when we are in Turkey, we must do as the turkey* do, be cat up. Tax Cocsty Jail.—Nothing has been done in the matter of rebuilding the Bibb county jail, destroyed by firo some two month ago, with the exception of the presentment of the grand jury, asking that it bo speedily put up. Tho import ance of such a building to the county and qity cannot be over-estimated, and the appropriation for the purpose should be at once made and ope rations commenced. The police jail is filled to repletion with municipal, Stale and Federal of fenders, so many being crowded into one cell as to create disease among them. We hope to see the matter receive prompt attention, and a new and stronger building arise from tho ashes of the old jail—a monument to the liberality of the State, and a terror to evil doers. General Accilxxt Policies.—E. C. Grantee Insures against accidents of all kinds—whether they occur at home or while traveling, In the cars or on the boat, in theshop, the office, the counting-house or in the street; while attending to business. or while on a pleasure trip. In insuring against accidents, no medical exam ination is required. All ages are accepted, and the premiums are so small, that every one, be he me chanic, merchant, or professional mao, may secure a policy. The Policy covers all forma of dislocation*: bro ken bones, sprains, braises, cuts, gun-shot wounds, burns, aud scalds, bites of dogs, assaults by burg lars, robbers; or murderers, the action of lightning or sun-stroke, the effects of explosions, floods and suffocation, by drowning or choking, aud all other kinds of accidends. Office on Triangular Block. Holiday Fun.—We know of no more ratlon& manner ef passing away an evening than dropping in at Ralston Hall, to wltnesa the chaste and mirth ful entertainments of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Watkins. On Saturday evening they performed to a small but enthusiastic audience, who, went away with every wrinkle smoothed from their visages. *Twas tru ly a trip to Fun-land. They give another enter tainment on Monday evening, and others during the holidays. A Merry Christmas to each and all—to rich and poor—to every one to whom aalvation wa* brought by Him, whose natal day was ushered in by the songs and harplngs of angelic hosts. Maj peace and joy and plenty reign this day throughout the broad dominions of this our glorious southern land! and sorrow and care be banished for the nonce. If the vexations and discomforts of this life will intrude themselves upon tho elders, let the hearts of the dear children be made glad, aud not one think that Christmas Is as *auy other day- bringing no gladness to their homes Parents, let them not ask why Santa Claus does not comedown their chimney, nor breathe this prayer of a little one, to whom Christmas had not proved a Joyous season in the past: "Our Father, who art in heaven! please make us good and happy, and let us have & merry Christmas. If thero is any Santa Claus, please let him come to our house to-night, for he has never been Ijere lq all our live* and this makes us very sorry. Bless dear papa and mama, and don't lot us think bard of them, or say naughty things about them, only because they dontknow how little children feel. Amen.” Shall tha children of our dead heroes—the men who perilled all in our behalf—be forgotten at this jojrous season ? Assuredly not.
