There were only four cases tried at this court yes terday morning, and all of these, except 8am Walker (coL) were men whose abilities for kicking up a row only equaled by their great modesty about seeing their names in print.

A RARE TREAT. Those who were so fortunate as to be present at *‘An Hour’s Recess,” given by W. H. Barnes, the At lanta Amateur, at DeGive’s Opera House lsst night. His performances are a strange and entertaining mix ture of philosophy, common sense, wit, humor and rare fun. In prose he excels, while in song he is al most matchless. The writer has been to many places, seen and heard many things, but never in our life spent such s thoroughly enjoyable hour as at DeGlve'i last night Barnes is oertainly a whole team by him self. He was formerly sn Atlanta man, and at the conclusion of his Recess last night quite a number of his old friends went and congratulated Li.a on his splendid success, snd insisted on his making Atlanta his future home. The audience was large, select and happy. We advise all who have an opportunity to hear this gentleman, to embrace it. Kyraeaeul. Sigman—Scott.—Married on the 29th of May by Rev. E. W.

I«o*seK from lloN.fi i Fi Messrs. Walker k Boyd, arent London Assurance Corporation, have received the following telegram: “New York, Mar si, 1873. Tne iosb will fall short of twenty thousand dollars.” Messrs. Cox and Hill are about putting up a first class distil'ery at Stone Mountain, for the manufac ture of a pure whits whisky oimilar and fully equal in quality to the celebrated Scotch'ami Iririi whiskies. The site Selected is near the edge of the beau tlx u lake Bancroft, situated at the base cf this mighty mountain, and purchased from Mr. T. T. Wright. According to previous announcement tbe picnic ex cursion gotten up under the auspices ot Trinity Sun day School took place yesterday morning. At an early hour people from different parts of the city came to tbe car shed to take the train for Stone Mountain. The members of the school turned out in almost full force, and many friends joined them, which filled the cars to repletion, many being unable to obtain seats though all desiring to do so went, and by reason of the short, smooth ride, made no complaint on account of the crowded condition of the cars. Reaching their destination in due time, nine-tenths of tbe excursionists at once proceeded to ascend the massive rock to its highest pinnacle and canvassed it thoroughly. Of course every body who never made the trip before was deceived as to the distance, and were quite prepared for rest after returning to he bate at the spring and tbe mountain house where provis ions in abundance were ready for attention. The committee on baskets bad gathered them all together, opened them and spread their rich and varied tents ovsr tables for the convenience of the crowd. It is needless to say that no evidences that a tonic petizer was needed were exhibited at this juncture affairs. All had plenty and seemed satisfied, party soon alter tnis returned to the train, and i p. m. arrived at Atlanta without :my accident,-having j enjoyed the diy pleasantly. j ; INCIDENT* , , A negro man, by tLa name of D'i, who refit down 1 fr'.m At! ii'ta, was char** . v*:5h ,-jua improper <-m- : The inward bound passenger train on the Air Line Railroad, due here at six o’clock, did not reach the city until nine o’clock on Thursday evening. The delay was occasioned by the train running off the track near Gainesville, while moving at full speed. This was within a abort distance of a large tressle. Some of the cars were considerably damaged but for- tunately%no injury occurred to any of the passen gers. WHAT THE WESLEY CONGREGATION SAYS. The foregoing diagram shows its position. As will be seen it is directly opposite the new Methodist Chnrch. The lot is a very small one, and if pur chased by a private person a shanty is aa likely aa not to be placed npon it. Naturally enough, having al ready spent some forty thousand dollars upon their church, the members of the congregation are uneasy at the prospects of such a ih 5 ng. Being heavily In debt, they are unab'.e to purchase the lot themselves, but we understand tbat they are ready to place a first-class iron fence around it, and to convert the lot into a handsoma park if the city will purchase it. A MOVEMENT FOR ITS PURCHASE. The possibility of the lot being sold for business purposes has aroused a deep interest in *he matter, and has rc- awakened the general desire on the part of the people for a park. A petition has been cent to the City Council asking the corporation to purchase it. The holders of tbe property, it is stated, will do noth ing t o prevent the city obtaining it at a reasonable price, and are, indeed, themselves anxious that it ! should become the property of the corporation. A i committee has been appointed to consider the petition and report upon it to-morrow (Monday) evening, and there is a general feeling that the purchase should be made, not only in tbe interest of tbe church, but for the purpose of making a start towards beautifying i and ornamenting Atlanta. A LIBERAL OFFER. For the purpose of aiding in its purchase, two wealthy gentlemen of Atlanta have cffeEed to contrib ute seven hundred dollars of the money, and as it is not believed tbat the lot will bring over fifteen hun dred, it will be seen tbat the cost to the corporation will be small. As has been already stated, nothing more than the purchase of the ground is asked. The iaclosing and laying out of the grounds will be done by the citizens at their private expense. DARKS NEEDED. In view of the utter absence of a paik in the city t his opportunity should not be neglected. It would certainly be an outrage if a shanty was put up in front of oca of cur finest Church edifices. The question, however, ia not one so much in tbe interest of Wesley Chapel as in that of Atlanta. Hence gentlemen of all religious denominations who have been addressed on the subject have given a hearty approval of the project. Parks are needed badly. As our population increases, the necessity for these oases in tbe desert of brick stores and houses will become more and more apparent. LET IT BE BOUGHT. The cost to the city will be the merest trifle—less than five ctnts per head on our population. In poin t of expense, therefore, no objection can be raised. It is therefore, to be hoped tbat the City Council will abandon for a time its strictly utilitarian po icy, and opening iu heart so that a little sentiment and a litile love of the beautiful nay enter, without hesitation buy the lot, and give us one spot where we can see the roses bloom and the velvet grass grow* without knowing that they are private property. Police Arrests. Four parties had been arrested by the officers up to ten o’clock lsst night. One of these was a negro man for striking a small boy on the head at Brotherton’s corner about six o’clock. After performing this in teresting feat the offender attempted to escape, but was addressed by Policeman Fuller in a very feeling manner and prevailed npon to desist from his prog- Middleton a Bbo.—See the flaming advertisement of Middleton A Bro., Coppersmiths, iu to day’s Her ald.

There is a future bright with promise for us all who are worthy of the heritage of our manhood, but black with eternal infamy to those who attempt to ape the ethics of an other and a colder clime.

Stanfordville, Putnam County: My Dear Sir: Your letter asking my opinion with respect to the operations of the recent decisions of the United States Supreme Court, bearing on the constitutionality of the Homestead law, as it is called in our State now, and as provi ded for in the constitution of Georgia, adopt ed by the Convention of 1868, Ac., has been received. Nothing cau be more plainly stated, than the annunciation of the Supreme Court, that Homesteads which have been set apart under our Dew Homestead law, in the face of the obligations of contracts, made prior to the adoption of our State Constitution, are estates created under the terms and provisions of a State law which is retrouctive in its character, and hence, made to impair the obligations ot these contracts. It is in view’ of this expost facto feature ol the newr constitution of Georgia, that the United States Supreme Court/declares the “Homestead Law’ r of Georgia unconstitution al, and, therefore, null and void. No proposition cau be more hostile to the genius of true constitutional law, and more injurious to the liberties of our people than the declaration made through our latter day State legislation, that homesteads can or should be maintained under the operations of a statute, or the provisions of the organic law, of a State which were enacted or have been adopted since the creation of an obliga tion, or a contract made in good faith, and at a time when another homestead law was in force, exempting from levy and sale but a moity of the applicant’s estate. I have never been able to discover in the Homestead Jaw, when so applied, even an equity which could bring it within the en lightened conscience of this most liberal de partment of jurisprudence. My opinion, as you should know, has been umlormly, tbat it was not based upon a single principle of sound law; but was only to be considered as the diplomatic address of certaiu shrewd politicians who were courting popularity in Georgia by appealing to a Very weak elemtnt of our poor human nature. Again, you ask me if 1 think your. Home stead can be saved to your family through th« operations of the Bankruj t law of the United StateS. 1 answer you, that stead has been set aside after a lien of contracts on it, mad adoption of our Suite coi do not think that it will 1 the exemption provision, law of the United Stab s can be brought properly Side Supreme Couit. enduring tho tiavetda of bankruptcy, hold it again class 01 obligations tor n c-ndol ail this “proceedit as far as your case is conc< in all I have written above with regard to the decision ol U10 SapvtMuo Cpiul on Uu eyi*s;i- tutiouality of the homestead lav/, a* passed upon at Washington City. So you see, my dear sir, aiier the lfipse of four years only, we are again talking about “homestead.’' You remember, evidently, my advice then given to you, at my office 111 Eatonton, or 1 would not be writing my friend this letter. Pray, allow me to repeat in substance, it I should not i:i words. It’ you cannot pay your debts, which have been justly and honorably contracted, seek jour creditors; say to them tho truth, that you have no money to waste in fruitless litigation, and noue that you would have which has been unjustly obtained. Have the moral courage to admit to them that your misfor tunes have made you a servant, and yet, you are a proud mau who cannot work in chains without being chafed to deatn. State exactly 1 your circumstances. Surrender your assets to tho last article of value. In other words, j let them sto that you are not disposed to de fraud them, or any one else, by a dodge of a | qaestioi.Mp chsracter, and that you will re cognise no equity not founded in a good con science, and n«> law that is not passed upon the principles of common sense.
