Stand up, good Grant, and bless the day Tbs negro came from Airies! He is the object of onr love— In him we live, in him we move; For him we preach, for him we pray. For him we meet from day to day.” The Police Court is beginning to smell strongly of Africa. It would not be so objectionable, however, if the “colored cuss from Africa,” the female persuasion thereof, particularly, did not delight In parading ab surd private and family quarrels before an audience of white people. They have about monopolized tbe en- cil. tire time and business of ths Court upon the most trival causes in having each ether arrested with ma licious intent. Samantha Watts, on yesterday, was keel ing up the reputation of the family name by experimenting with steam, which she rsised by ber own individual ex r- tions. She lives “jining” lots to Mary Johnson and Mary Ann Capers, who are two orderly and well be haved old women. Samantha has a husband named Jim Franklin; and here wa* another enigma to ths Court. Somebody came to see the two old ladies night before last, and Samantha and Jim concluded h* wai a burglar, trying to burn up their residence, and insulted both the Mesdames Capers and Johnson, for which she was arrested. After exploding her biler in Court, she was allowed to pay five dollars and go, for being disorderly and profane. By this time the aroma de Afriquv became so strong that Colonel Jim Waddell and Dr. Wilson, who had merely dropped in, held their noses out the window and sneezed. (Waddell, it is said, wants to occupy the same position in Marietta as Old Ten and Costs does here. This is mere rumor.) Prince Arnold was a little pop-eyed niggei, who is Captain in the rc^k batallion. He and some other small fry got into a dispute and he turned bis artillery of grape loose upon the whole crowd. It happened to be in the neighborhood of a policeman’s house, and he threw with such vim as to wake the officer up from nap, which fact wa* sufficient evidence that PriDce bad made m.usual disturbance, and he pays five dol- llar* or go on the streets nine day*. ••We may go through the world, but ’twill be very alow If we listen to ail that we hear r* we go; We’ll be worried, and fretted and kept in a stew. For medulesome tongues must have something to do— For people will talk. If quiet and modest ’twill then be presumed That your humble position is only assumed; You re a wolf in sheep’* clothing, or else you’re a fool, But don’t get excited, keep perfectly cool— For people will to:k ” If Sophia Trotttr had kept these lines continumlly in her mind’s eye, she would not have gotten into an awkward scrape with Belcoat Jones, the President of the Gospel Aid Society. It seems that Sophia and two other sisters rested under strong suspicions of Bel coat that they were not what they ought to be. if they wished to be successful in impressing the truths of the Gospel upon their dying bister sinners, and he very properly brought charges against these Magdalens as beiDg un worthy the fellowship of the better portion of the society, and lurtbcr privately announced his determi nation to quit being President unless they were ousted. Tbe President’s wishes were carried out to the letter, and all at once the three sisters discovered themselves without tbe pale cf the G. A. S. Ex-sister Sophy st had President Jones arrested for defamation of character, and brought before Justice Butt, who, after of his most patient hearings, dismissed Jones. She then bad him up before the Recorder for saying ugly things, and this was the way it ended: Jones got off, and the three injured sisters got a lecture and good advice from the court, who has been noticing eases all his life, and wound up as he begun. He told them to behave for the future, and closed w.th: PROCEEDINGS OF COUNCIL. OF-FISH-ALL. Council Chamber, Atlasta, Friday, July 11, 1873—6>£ r. u. Council met. Present, His Honor C. C.

It proves further the degeneracy of the age in which we live, or to w hat shifts some men will resort to in order to gratify tht-ir v ness for "beer.” The bh od-curdliDg scene of which ws speak is, we fear, alas, too frequent! A quarter master ind Major in the late war for "what we be lieved to beo-ir rights,” was go‘ng around with some thing wrapped in an old newspaper, and when asked what he had, it was instantly unfold ed, and a miniature iron tafe belonging to his little chil 1 was displayed. It contained se* eral pieces of silver and gold coin which had been contrib uted by tbe child’s friends, and the father would by s little palavering intimate that if any one desired to contribute a "memento” towards filling tho safe why, of course, etc. Several gentlemen put io nickels and one gave a silver quarter. Tbe ex-quartermaster was afterwards seen entering a beer saloon, and delib, erate y drink and pay for it out of the little cash box Bathe* Here anil There. The weather continues remarkably cool. Nowell regulated family can yet affiid to throw away blankets. Mr. H. F. Fmeiy has perchaeed thiitetn ter land from Mr. Pelham, of Kirkwood, for one hundred and thirty dollars per acre, where he will put up a handsome residence. Has he caught the bird ? The Katy-Dids created a pleasant little diversion yesterday by drilling in full uniform on their new grounds. Where is the engine* r that the government was go ing to send to Atlanta to locate the custom house ? I They promised that he should be here by the 1st of Jaly. His “circulation ” will get to be very small if ha don’t hurry up. Mr. J. C.'Peck, Dr. Bozemau.and some others, have taken anjnterest in the company that manufactures Siaymaker’s desks, and the manufacture of thefc non pareil desks will be prosecuted with energy. The annnai convention of the 8igma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity which was to hive been held at Louisville, Kentucky, on the 22nd inst., has been indefinitely postponed on account of the prevalence of cholera In the Western cities. The fraternity is said to be in an exceedingly flourishing condition. Good friends, take my advice, and do as you please, For your mind (if you have one) will then be at ease, Through life you will meet with all sorts of abuse, But dou’t thiuk to atop th<m, ’twill be of no use— For people will talk.” An eminent physician, who had permittd his horse to obstruct the sidewalk, had been summoned to come, but he didn’t, and the court expressed his mind to charge him five dollars every day be failed to appear. He put him down for a V. T. N. Barringer, one of our estimable friends out at the Barracks, swallowed a little too much cholera pre ventive, and held a railroad meeting on Pryor street. Disgusted that, in the estimation of the people gen- rally. that Birmingham was a greater railroad center than Opelika, and should take rank higher than the West End terminus of the street railroad, he mixed with his cholera medicine a torch-light procession of mint juleps. His hair was cut close after the style of the “military clip.” He had a scar on his nose, and seemed quite indifferent over his arrest. The court ventured the suggestiou from the nasal abrazare in his frontispiece, that he had been attempting to butt the bull eff the bridge, and fined him five dollars a butt. J. H. Cultingham, having become dizzy In the head under the influence of too much valley tan, imagined that the earth was trying to roll from under his feet out of pnro spite, and was arrested by the police giv ing utterance, in song, to tbe following treasonable sentiments: “Roll on, thou ball, roll on ! Through pathless realms of space Roll on t What though I’m in a case ? Wuat though I cannot meet my bills ? Wnat though I suffer toothache’s ills? What though I swallow countless pills ? Never yon mind! Boll on! The Court rolled ten blsziDg slugs out of liis olt breeches and J. H. rolled out of couit. Not for a moment disputing that ReUwine k Fox’i cholera remedy should dispel all doubt in the mind of every father, mother son and daughter, that this med icine is worthy ot trial (which is all the proprietor’s ask), Mr. T. Goodwin concluded that Robertson coun ty Hair Invigorator would suffice so far as any irregu larity was concerned in his case,and was found by the police a few hours afterwards on his face In the gutter, a forcible illustration of “all quiet along the lines to night.” With this reflection, the court quietly wrapped from the solicitude of its own originality and adjourned in deep thought. Of Frank Tutwiler. for payment of ten dollars for iemoving a dead cow. Laid on the table. Of Georgia Banking and Trust Company, asking that four hundred and fifty dollars tax, paid at varl limes—the same having been paid under protest— be refunded with interest. Alderman Brotherton thought X ought to be tabled. Alderman Goldsmith and McMillan favored referring it. Alderman Rice favored tabling it. Alderman Goldsmith said this only bank that paid it at all The matter was definitely postponed. Of Yolney Spalding, stating that McDonough street grading could be done cheaper thau at first thought— an error having been made in the estimate, ceived. Of D. W. Judson, calling attention to Pryor street sewer, and asking that it be opened. The rules wero suspended, and Mr. Judson stated that within the last twelve months an acre and a half or two acres of ground had been overflown by the water there, large deposits of mud left by it, causing unhealthy miasma, etc. Alderman McMillan stated that the City Engineer at first stated that the work could be done for $150, but Mr. McAfee would not do the work for less than $300. Referred to Commhtec on 9ewerB and City Engh Of John G.

A motion to indefinitely postpoue was lost. Alderman Langston advocated granting the iet«- tion. Alderman Dodd was lined one dollar for contempt. Alderman Boring moved to refer to the Committee i Public Buildings and Grounds, with power to ac and report their action at next meeting. Alderman Beattie opposed releasing Mr. Kreis fio:n the payment of the rent. Alderm&u Dodd wanted a record of those williug to release him to carry in his pocket. Alderman McMillan thought it was mixed and moved its reference to a special committee oFfive. This motion prevailed, and tbe following committee was appointed to lake the matter in charge : McMillan, Sparks, Brathertoa, Young and McDuffie.

JIVEHI.K PARTY, ORCX—A PLEASANT A very large party of the juveniles—what we sup pose maybe called the junior bon ion—met in festal gathering at Colonel Uigntower’s residence yesterday evening to celebrate the birth day ot hia third young est son. In all tbe world a lovelier sight cannot be found than a score or so of young folks with the dewy artlessness not yet scorched out of their natures by the sun of fashion, enjoying themselves “at a »arty.” everything that could poisibly be done to heighten the enjoyment of his guests was gallantly done by Master Hightower and his hospitable parents. SOI KICK MUSI CALK. A PLF.AMAIIT ENTERTAINMENT— AWAftDIVU OF PRIZES. It was our pleasure on Tuesday evening last to at tend an exhibition of the music class of Mist Carrie Heard, at the residence of Mrs. Barn*rd, on White hall street. A large attendance of the parents and invltsd guests were present. Owing to the large number of pupils the exercises were quite varied, reflecting great credit on both teacher and pupils. At the close of the first part of tbe programme prizes were awarded to the Misses Mary Hunnicutt, Lizzie Murpbey and others, they having reosived ths highest marks for their progress and attention to the science. Miss Hoard cannot receive too much praise for her devotion to ber scholars in “Untwisting all the charms that tie The hidden seal of harmony.” aha promises rare musical talent, and la a lady of high literary Culture and fully deserves ths large patronage which she has received from our citizens. Mra. L. M.

Finance—On resolution ot Alderman Riee to allow Mack Pittman to sell gas sunlight apparatus—majority report—adverse. Adopted. On petition of Mr. A. Torre for psy for bis water melons—majority report. Adverse. Alderman Brotberton thought the matter had better be postponed for further investigation. Alderman Brothei ton eloquently and pointedly urged the postponement, to allow time for investiga tion; was opposed to taking s snap judgment against the man. Alderman Dodd stated that be had been advised by eminent lawyers that the city was not liable. He finally consented to a postponement. Alderman Rice, Goldsmith and Boring opposed post ponement Let him go to the courts. Alderman Beattie would be willing to contribute something himself towards remunerating the old man; did not think, however, that the city wsb liable. The matter was recommitted. The Finance Committee recommonded the payment of bills an I accounts for work to the amount of $6,600.40. Adopted. Street Committee—On bid* for flagging sidewalk— T. W. G. Crussell and Healy Berry k C., make same bid, at 60 cents per superficial yard—recommend they have equal portions—James Welch lowest bidder for granite flagging—recommend it be awarded him, and James LaDgesser lowest bidder for composition flag ging—if any is put down, recommend contract be awarded him.

Tbe Gas Committee concurred in the report. Adopted. On McDonough street grading, majority report ad verse—minority report favorable, and awarding the contract to Vi, M. Ellison on certain conditions. On the motion to adopt the minority report, the nays were: Brotberton, Young, McDuffie and Gold smith. The balance, except Boring, who was excused, voted aye, so tbe minority report was adopted. Alderman Brotherton changed his vote and gave notice that be would move a reconsideration at next mooting. The Street Committee report the following damages done by the rain storm Thursday: Wall and culvert on Fair street near Hill street; cost of repairs $50. Wooden bridge, corner Hill and Fair streets, he re built with the wood curb now being taken up; cost $10. Fort street, from Decatur to College, requiring a retaining wall and culvert; cost $250. Corner Fos ter and Fort streets impassable, and recommend that wood sewers, built of wood of the curbinjnow being taken up; cost $20. Bridge, corner Harris and Butler streets, partly washed away; repairs will cost $75. Damages comer Ivy and Cain, slight, but recommend that 200 feet of 12 inch pipe be put in; cost $130. Corner Decatur and Pratt; repairs cost $15. Fillmore street, near 5th Baptist church; fifty feet 20 inch pipe necessary; cost $100. No complaint as to work done this year; all old work that is giving way. Quite a squabble got up about the recommendation to use the wood curb at different places from that di rected by the resolution. Aldorman Beatie asked that the report be read again a This was done and Alderman Brotherton moved the report, except that part which related to the use of the wood curbing, and they be allowed to use new mate, rial. Alderman Boring and Morris wanted to know what had become of the wood curbing. Alderman Langston advised moderation, etc. Hoped this squabbling aud personality would bo stopped. Alderman Dodd wanted the committee instructed to use Terra Cotla pipe. Alderman Yonng thought It the heat pipe. Somebody said Concrete pipe had been used on Decatur strut. Alderman Brotherton’s motion prevailed. Committee on Public Schools—Pretented the semi annual report of tbe Board of Education, givlog tho expenses of the public schools at $28,643. Ten schools—7 white, 3 colored; number of chil- dren in school 3,368, The receipts from September to July overrun expenses about $1,410. Adopted. Committee on Sewers and Drains—On petition of W. R. Hill, for enlargement of sewer on James and Spring streets—majority adverse, minority favorable. Alderman Sparks stated that the work would cost $600 to $S00. Alderman Boring thought the work ought to be done. Had seen one case of cholera, and the one con ing next highest to it was in that locality; would coat good deal of money. Majority report adopted. On petition of R. W. B. Elliott et al., calling atten tion to the sewer on Calhouu street—adverse. Adopted. On petition of James It. Wjlie et sh, for a sower— recommend a barrel lower, or put in with sufficient capacity to drain from Broad street to Pryor—probable cost $1,000. Alderman Dodd thought it much needed. Alderman Bice also advocated the adoption of the report. Alderman McMillan also favored tbe adoption of the report. Alderman Sparks thought the coet of an important measure was not tbe criterion to test it by. Ought the people to have it? if so, give Is to them. The report was adopted and the committee in structed to advertise for proposals for doing the work. Of G. W. D. Cook for sewer—adverse. Adopted. Of Cbas. Hlentz, et al., for terra cotta piping.

He was sentenced by Judge Erskine to three months imprisonment, aud to pay a fine of two buudred dol lars and costs, and to remain in prison until said line and coats were paid unless otherwise discharged by law. Under a special act of Congress United States Commissioners are invested with power to release a party from imprisonment on account of the non-pay ment of fine and costs, upon his making ca.h that is not worth twenty dollars over tin exempts allowed by State laws. This oath cannot entitle the party to a release until after he has served the term to which he wan sentenced and thirty days besides. Under this act the Com missioner released Mr. Black.
