[tri&wlm] Hi [communicated.] To the Citizens of Rome. The undersigned would take this method of tendering their “ sincere thanks to tho citizens of Rome, for the material ‘‘aid and comfort" extended to us in our recent misfortune, and also for tho warm sympathy, and many acts of kindness shown us. and may they have the satisfaction' of seeing “the bread east upon the waters return after many days." B. G. SALVAGE, - R. Y. MOORE. Cool Weather.—Since tho rain on ^.Sunday last the- weather has boen de lightfully cool. Mgnday, Tuesday and Wednesday wore what Alexander Smith would call stragglers from the files of October. In the mornings and even ings fires have been comfortable, if not necessary to comfort. The old adago might be reversed and read, “That is a good wind that blows nobody any ill,* for we tear this chango will produce sickness. And again, a few days ago there was too little rain for tho corn, now there lias been too much for the cotton.— It is hard to please us mortals, especial ly tho fanners. ggyRev.J. E. Ryerson has declined the appointment of Pastor tendered him by the Baptist denomination in this place. 8®* Hon. Howell Cobb addressed the people at Columbu? on last Saturday morning, and Hon. Robert Toombs at night; and both at Augusta on Mond..y right. * BgyWe learn that Rev. A. A. Lips- combo, of Alabama, has accepted the Presidency of Franklin College tender ed him by the Board of Trustees at thoir latoseasion. Take that Rack. , v Tho Selma (Ala.) Reporter, of the 8th *' inst., says: “Tho Roino Courier, which has liith- orto boen a Democratic journal, announ ces that it will, during tho present can vass, support the nominees of the Con stitutional Union Party." Wo cannot supposo that the Reporter, which is of the same way of thinking ns ourself, would wilfully and maliciously start an “evil report” concerning ut.— We, therefore, cannot indulge a spirit of resentment, but ask our Alabama contemporary to correct the mistake it has made by charging tho Courier with having “hitherto boen a Democratic jour* nal.” Never! no, never 1 .fr Singer’s Sewino Machine Beat.—We ' see it stated tliat Isaao M. Singer, the well known sewing machine manufactu rer, was arrested in New York, on Thursday last, for boating his wife. B&“We are glad to see among other improvements in our county that a bridge is in process of construction over Horseleg creek near its riiouth.— We know of no place where it has been more needed, for heretofore the creek has been impassable at the ford after every heavy rain. The Inferior Court could not have expended a few hundred Fr dollars more judiciously, or moreadvan- ' tageously to « large j>ortion of the citi zens of the county. Incendiarism in Chatoooa County.— A correspondent at Melville, Chatooga county, Ga., says: “ Our community has been rauoh ex cited in the last four or five days at the burning of Che residence ot Mr. James L. Huie, a very worthy and estimable man, who, with all bis family, were ab sent on a visit to his relatives near At- ’f Santa, Ga. His dwelling house, with all v the furniture, kitohen and its contents, and his wheat house, containing seven ty or eighty bushels of wheat, were de stroyed by fire on Wednesday night, 1st August—the work of an incondiafy.”— Chnn. & Sent. fcf^^PoLK Slate Quarry Rail Road.—Win- r tors and Company having oompleted their preparations have commenced the excavation and embankment on one of tho Motions of their contract. Mr. John | Darby has completed the olearing and grubbing of hi* section, and the other contractors on the first eleven miles of tbe road are getting ready to oommonoe work.—Marietta Advocate, 10M.

The “Murder” at Long Branch.N.J. Tiie Long Branch mystery is a mystery no longer. The affair turns out to be simply a hoax, concocted by tho ser vants at one of the hotels, who procured some blood and a quantity of hair from a barber's shop, and mixing them to gether, smeared the mixture over a club and a boat’s sail, and thus caused a be lief that an atrocious muitfer had been committed.
