Tn* River id Briix;*.— Fearing thxi the j
heery raint of Sunday and yesterday would have j
ths effect of causing somewhat a fre.*het in tire
Oemuigee, we paid a visit riverward Wednesday
evening, and found the stream wide and angry,
aud perceptibly on the increase. %
The sudden rise and the rapidity of the cur
rent-filled as it is with drift wood, has some'
bat endangered the safety of the city bridge,
•tv being built. A portion of the scaffoldingon
the up stream side of the bridge, and near the
center pier, has been carried away by the mass
of drift east against it, causing that portion of
the superstructure to swag. This, though an in-
convenience, docs not naturally interfere with
the work. .Strenuous efforts are being made to
repair the damage, and should no farther seci-
t happen, the work will rapidly progress. It
is thought that, with favorable weather, the
bridge could be completed in eight or nigedays.
As soon as th*- stream begins to subside, much
■lion will be shipped from this point, and the
latter part of the week may prove as brisk as the
first three days have been doll.

Holiday AmcsBmeSTs.—Bells end dancing
parties were the order of the night on Tuesday
evening; first among which was the ball of the
le of Macon, at their new Hall. The
ball room was beautifully decorated with ever
greens, flowers and banners, and quite a crowd
of “fair women and brave men” assembled to
chase the idle moments with flying feet, and
mirth and pleasure reigned supreme, and ina.le
the hour of parting the only iad one of the many
delightful ones spent in the giddy mazes of the
walUeand dance, and the company dispersed in
tho small hours highly pleased with*this, the
first ball of the Fenians.
At the houses of many of our citizens the hap
py hours wore spent in the enjoyment of the
“poetry of motion," social parties, etc., where
fun and frolic reigued supreme, and many a fes
tive youth retired with his bosom brimfull of
J the exhilersting juice of the vine,
with fond wishes for the speedy return of the
holiday season.

ter of unusual regret ou. the .‘part of the rnauy ro,w -

The /srowell }>eforiiianee of this popular couple
was to have taken place laat evening, but in con-
aequenceof the heavy fall of rain during the
greater part of yesterday, the benefit w*a juJi-
ciously postponed until to-night, when we hope
L> see Ralston Hall filled'to its utmost capacity.
Huch a tribute to tbe great merits of these distin
guished artists is justly doe from our citizens.—
Macon is not often visited by dramatic talent of
& high order, and to^encourage such visits, we
rthould not fail to show that we can and will ap
preciate an entertainment which blends refine
ment and intellectuality with amusemeot.
Mr. and Mrs. W. have prepared a capital bill
for the occasion. Mias Carlotia Shaw, the em
inent pianist, will execute several of the most
brilliant morceaux of the great composers, while
Mrs Watkins, in addition l.j f.iV.-riL- ball.oN,
will deliver tbe grand scena of ‘•The Maniac,”
founded on Monk Lewis’ famous poem—the mu
sic by Mary Russel. The whole will terminate
with a well-done “Domestic Broil” entitled “It
Takes Two To Quarrel”—a chapter from the do
mestic history of the Ilotwaughter family. The
title is suggestive of uproarious fun, and in the
hands of Mr. and Mrs. Watkins and Mias Shaw
there can be no doubt but that the broil will be
“well done.” There can be no postponement this
evening, as the arrangements of Mr. and Mra. W.
compel them to start immediately for New Or
leans, £ v \
National Ci nRKNcr.—“I say, Johnson, atop a

“Well, it’s because I want some lino clothing,

man’s book store,) are selling more goods for
money than any other house in the city. 1 stop

The Weather—The warm and pleasant weath
er of Monday and Tuesday has again given place
to clouds, gloom and rain, and a fellow is once
more “sloshing around” in mud and water, iu
hirquest after the latest item with which t«» re
gale the reader. Even before these remarks on
the never failing theme of tho weather i» placed
before you, we may have had a change for the
better or worse, and thus another item be fur-
uiahed on this inexhaustible subject. Abas ver-
AmtTican immigration would be welcomed
by tlie Brazilian public have been realized in
the kind reception given by the president
and inhabitants of S&n Paulo to Gen. Wood
«sd his colleagues. ^
From a letter received from Dr. Warne we
extract the following satisfactory account of
their reception which, independent of the de
sire of all classes to encourage immigration,
was to I*? expected from the proverbial hoa *
pi tali ty of the Paulenseg.
“Tlie next day, at 9 a. m., the prcttylittle
city of St. Paulo was revealed to os, and on
a more thorough acquaintance with it-and
the people, we are satisfied that our first con
viction-* were right. They have treated us
like friends and brothers since our arrival.—
The president promised everything we want
ed, and is now making due preparrtions to
start us on our journey to-morrow morning.
The president called on us yesterday m full
military costume, and the city conncil sent a
deputation to wait on us with an address wel
coming us to Brazil, etc. The president also
put at mir M-rvir.-. hi hov m tin* theatre,
which we ted, along with many other
civilties. I cannot sufficiently express my
and our pleasure at the treatment of every
body in the city to us. We shall long remem
ber them.”
The Rev. Mr. Dunn, of Louisiana, also has
had an interview with the minister of agri
culture, and was delighted at the frank and
liberal ideas expressed by his excellency on
the subject of religious forms and differences
of belief. Mr. Dunn has, likewise, received
from the imperial government the same gen
erous facilities for r. costless examination of
any province he wishes to inspect, as hayc
been afforded to Gen. Woad and other persons
from the United States.
On the arrival of the Havana, the pioneer
vr ufthf iieu r l.iMi-ln-< i > f i.iiii niailline
between Brazil and New York, the minister
of Agriculture, not content with the orders
issued by him to the official agent of coloni
zation to proceed on board the vessel to af
ford facilities for the disembarkation of any
emigrants that may arrive, himself went on
board, attended by his private Secretary, with
the object of seeing what further measures
could lie adopted for smoothing their way.
Various small parties of emigrants from the
United States have been forwarded to the dis
tricts chosen by them, harbingers, we trust, of
a steady influx from the States and Europe, to
a country whose products and climate offei
rare advantages of ease and profit to the. ag'
ricalturist. *
Gen. Braunan 1i;ls ordered a military
comini -ion t<* tn Mr. James A. Seward, Mr.
John Seward and Mr. Atkinson, city marshal
of Tlioma-sville, Ga., for assaults npon ne
