CRIMES IN AND ABOUND NEWNAN—A WOMAN BEATEN TO DEATH—THE SUPPOSED CRIMINAL NOT FBOEZ- CCTED—KILLING OF A NEGRO SATURDAY NIGHT—A BURGLARY. Hewnan, Ga., July 20, 1873.

Hill was shot by a young man, by name Janes, and the same night a woman by the came of VICTORIA SMALLWOOD DEED. It is said that she was beaten by a man (whose name 1 will not for the present give) In Heard county, from the effect of which she died. The Coroner's jury rendered a verdict to the effect that he was in strumental in her death. He was brought before Judge Buchanan for commitment and trial, and for want of prosecution was discharged. Judge Buchanan, however, expressed his willingness to examine witnesses, and to do it rigidly end to the best of his ability if any one would appear as prosecutor. I would give you all the particulars con cerning this case but as it will, in all probability, come befor the Grand Jury of Heard county at the next term of court I will not write more. THE KILLING LAST NIGHT. About dark yesterday evening a Mr. Cress Combs,and two negroes were going out of town on an ox wagon, when a dispute arose between Mr. Combs (who was under the icflocnce of liquor) and a negro named Manson Newton, whereupon Combs drew a pocket knife and stabbed the negro in the left breast, the knife entering the heart.

E.TERC WESTERN RAILROAD. la the letter of Colonel L. P. Grant on the Western Railroad, published in Sunday’s Herald, the printers mads several important errors. The estimate of the cost of the road is given at 133,000 per mile; it should read $23,000 per mile—a vast difference. The rate of city tax is printed one-third per cent; it should be one and onc-third per cent. Freightage on coal is printed ten cents per ton; It should read two dollars and ten cents per ton. And to sum up the list of errors, ccking is printed cooking—all which shows that the “proof" of the letter was not read by copy as it should have been. Lectures by the Catholic Bishop of Georgia. We understand that the Right Rev. M. Gross, Bishop of the Catholic Church for the Diocese of Georgia, will reach this city sometime this week, and will give a senes of lectures on the Catholic religion. The Bishop is now making an extended trip through his diocese, and has delivered lectures at Americas, Al bany, Milledgeville and other points, establishing churches, and in other ways ministering to the spir itual needs of his co-religionists. Bishop Gross is highly spoken of ss a fine orator and a gentleman of most agreeable appearance. His lectures elsewhere have attracted large crowds, including many persons not Catholic, and their grand tone has given satisfac tion to all who have had the pleasure of listening to them. We presume that the Bishop will lecture in the Catholic Chnrch in this city ; but learned on what evenings. the time. Tho parties tfcat committed the crime es caped. D. Km* i* and Figures in the Sewing Machine Business of Atlanta. New Music.—We find upon our table a piece of new music entitled “Love's First Dream," song and words by Charles Huboer, and music by A. B. Knapp. Both these gentlemen are citizens of Atlanta, Mr. Hubner being well known in literary circles as a poet and writer of considerable distinction, and Mr. Knapp as oue of the flu st musicians in the South. He is the principal moving spirit in the Mozart Musical Club, of th.s city, and a gentle nau of tare musical attain ments. M”. Huoner has written some very sweet verses, and “Love's Yourg Dream” is reckoned a nong his happiest strains. “Ou bright may U- the dream that swing Tb«*ir plumes around the heights of fame ; And sweet may be tlie dreams that bring 'the days of childhood back a.aiu; Bu- on th** soul with brighter rajs. Lovers morning t»un** of gi<<ry beam. And in the ’wiltghi of your days. How sweet tue stars of love's first dream.” The song has been sung with gr< at eclat by the Mozart, and is fast gaming pubLc favor. Published by Guilford, Wood A Co., Atlauta, Ga Atlanta is the distributing point for six of the lead ing Sewing Machine con panics, whose total sales from June, 1872, to June, 1873, foot up the sum of $600,000. The following is a fair statement of the business, and cost of doing it: 7,500 Machines were told at an average price of $80 $C00,000 Expenses of six cffices, exclusive of tales men $77,000 Average discounts for commission and sala ries. 35 per cent $210 000 Lessee on accounts, horses and accidents, 5 per cent $30,000 Depreciation of value in wagons $5,500-222,500 This presents the carious feature of costing more to sell goods than to buy. In looking over these items it is gratifying to know that so large a proportion of the proceeds of this business has been spent in our midst and the following statistics will show where the money goes to: The rental of the six offices located here is $6,050. The salaries of six managers, nine book-keepers, four teen adjusters and shipping clerks, four travelers, ten lady instructors, and four collectors—in all forty-seven persons, at an average salary of $900 per annum, who do not sol', but whose services are necessary to conduct the business; add to this freight, insurance, advertising, horae keep, porters, draymen, gas, fuel and furniture, and the item of expenses for non-producive services will foot up $.70,350. The next item is composed of salaries of 13 salesmen in the city, with average pay of $1.0o0 per annum ; about 125 canvasters, with wagons in country; 27 agents located at various points, who in turn employ not less than 175 sub-agents besides instruc tors, in all abcut 340 persons, directly and exclusively engaged in this business,whose average earnings are $617 65 $210,000 Losses on account to accidents, Ac., average 50 per cent upon the whole amount, $600,000. 30,000 Note.—This item speaks well for the honor of Geor gia. The experience of old business men is 7@10 per cent upon book accounts, without counting accidents. The last item consists of wear and tear in wagons and outfit, and is based npon an actual record, have not yet The average cost of wagons and outfit ia $165, cf these Atlanta has now in the field 169, and the cost of keeping the same in repair for five years would come up to the full value of the wagons at the expiration of that time, thus sinking the entire cost of outfit when new, which in this case is about $27,500, and every year would be $ 5,500 E10BI COLLEGE.

To the Editors of the Herald: Tho commencement exercises of Emory College were inaugurated yesterday by an able and powerful sermon by Rev. Dr. Hicks. The attendance was large and attractive, aDd the sermon one of the reverend gentleman's ablest of his life. To-dsy the exercises opened with prayer by Dr. Key, cf Colnmbus. There is in attendance a splendid brass band, which adds much to the entertainment of the occasion. The first speaker was D. Q. ABBOTT, COLUMBUS, GA. His extract from Pollock was well delivered. With perfect composure be talked like the bard himself, contemplating the character of Byron. His voice was finely modulated, and his gestures easy and grace ful. He is first in bis class. W. A. CANDLER, VILLA RICA. GA. With an impressive manner tho young orator de claimed against the evils of party Rpirlt. The audience complimented him with strict attention. C. C, CODY, COVINOTON, GA. This young man is second in his class, evidently a popular man with the ladies. A shower of bouquets come down at the close of his speech. T. W. HARRIS, CARTERSVILLE, GA. Ah! there’s the college pet. I war me he has attention. The litte girls look at him askance. He has taken an excerpt from Prentiss ou the death of LaFayettc, and has done his piece well. R. H. Jones, Oxford, Ga., well portrays “what makes the hero." But this crowd is becoming garrulous and will not listen. I wish he would enter a philippic against talkativism. W H. McMillan,Clarksville,Ga.—Isn't He Handsome the Woman Say. Us ia expected to get> prize. But I don’t know. I see the sweat on his brow. You may know he is doing his best, Didn’t he pick up that bouquet gracefully ? and the kiss he threw back, some fair one canght itl J. O. Ponder, Forsyth, Ga.—Liberty and Revolution. Another prize man. Speaks well—five voice—good emphasis. Dr. Smith wants this crowd to keep quiet; he’ll say so directly. Jaa. A. Stafford, Covington, Ga.—Then and Now. I should say he was a “ straight out.’’ J. A. Wright, Oxford, Ga. Hope—What makes at man part his hair in the middle? It does not make me wish I was a woman. But this boy spoke well. He had a fine conception of his subject. AUDIENCE TO-DAY. Of course it was brilliant. Reporters are expected to say so at any rate. Gen. A. H. Colquitt and £. E. Rawjon, of your city, were on the stage. Howard Van Epps, another gifted representative of Atlanta, is present with his lady, nee Miss Minnie Thornes, the ex-belle of Athens. THE BELLES. They came from every direction—Miss Ida Frazer' of Columbus; Mi6s Emmie Jorden, of Monticelio; Miss Maggie Myers, of Macon. These three young ladies have just graduated with high honors at Macon. Misses Annie Mays, Augusta; Miss Sallie Lucas, Athens. Don’t the fellows watch them! Miss Annie Pierce, Sparta; Miss Minnie Jackson and Mamie Lou Taylor, Macon’s charm mg maidens. Miss Leyden* with her sweet face aDd bright eye is down from your city: and others too numerous to mention. We have the promise of a fine debate this evening.

There was a public meeting of O’Donnelly Lodge of Cold Water Templars held st Evans’ Chapel Church, at 4 o’clock last Sunday evening. The attendance of members and friends of the order, consisting mainly of young people, was large, and the exercises pleasant aad entertaining. Under the head of “Good of the Order," Col. H. K, Shackleford, who was present, spread himself on a tempo ance speech of about half an hour in length. It was graced with rhetorical beauty and logical dic tion. During his remarks Mr. Shackleford took occa sion to deal severely, and with “gloves off," towards those ministers and professors of religion who de nounce the temperance organization as a ’ humbug" —he manifested his indignation by styling such “hypocrites.’’ H’s speech was listcued to with mark ed attention. Our associate, Mr. J. A. Andeiaon of tbe Herald, was also called for and responded in some appropriate remarks. Being endowed with high intel lectual powers (he measures six feet four inches in his stockings) he soared mors than the length of an ax handle above his hearers who sat in ailent but awful suspense awaiting his movements and demonstrations. He Is young but ws will bet twenty-five cents that he e n lit at bis table and brush the cobwebs from the ceil ing with the tips of his ears. Tbe beet of order pre vailed throughout and the officers and members ac quitted themeelvjs handsomely, it *a« pleasant to be there. The Lodge is in a flourishing condition recoiling occasion* at every mcetinj. Sunday Sermons in Atlanta. The day being pleasent, the various places of wor ship in tne city were well attended on Sunday last, and the sermons were generally able, earnest and im pressive, and the interest manifiested by the hearers most gratifying. At several of the churches revivals are in progress, and the altars constantly crowded with anxious penitents inquiring the wav of life. At eleven o’clock in the morning Rev. Dennis F. Hammond preached to a crowded house at Evan’s Chapel from the latter clause of the thirty-third verse, of the sixteenth chapter of John: “I have over come the world." This exposition of and practical application to the congregation occupied about one hour, and was a powerful and impressive one. He introduced some eminently proper ideas in relation to the duty and obligation iwliich Christians, members of the same or different denominations owe to each other. This discourse evidenced deep thought and research, and he has certainly studied the Bible to great effect. In tbe pulpit he poesesaea that same eloquence that has given him reputation at the Bar and on the Bench. In the evening, at the same church, Rev. C. J. Oliver officiated, preaching from the follow ing scripture, found in the eleventh chapter of Mathew, and three last verses: “ Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavily laden, and I will gi7e you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me ; for I meek and lowly in heart, and ye ahall find reat unto your souls, for my yoke ia easy, and my burden light." From this text he discoursed for about three-fourths of an hoar, in his eloquent and happy manner; after which an invitation was extended to profeasois to approach the altar for prayer, number availed themselves of the privilege, while three or four united with the church. Theie was also preaching at the church last night. The services at Trinity were of a very interesting nature at the evening service, there being the largest audience that wc ever saw assembled in the church on any former occasion—the house was crowded to reple tion. A gracious revival has been progressing at this chnrch for the last week, and will be continued hroogh the present week, with prayer meeting each morning, and preaching at night. The young men also hied a very interesting prayer meeting at six o’clock yesterday evening. Tbe pastor. Rev. Clement A. Evans, preached from the text: “It we confess sins, he is faithful and just to forgive ns our sins, sod cleanse ns from all unrighteousness;’’ 1st John 1st chapter and 10th verse. Tbe sermon was snch at its author never fails to preach, eloquent* yet proctic* 1 and easy to comprehend, forcible and impressive, be cause of that frankness, candor and fairness of exposition which ia secular to the preacher, enchained the profound attention of the congregation during the discourse and at lte conclusion about twenty penitents presented themselves at the altar for prayer the first of which was made by Judge John Collier and the second by Mr. Butler. The singing on this occasion was splendid and participated in by a large nninber of the congregation. To the Editors of the Herald: That this is an important street, both ae regards the travel over it and business conducted on it, all will ad mit. In fact it is over this street that more than one- half tbe cotton cold In the city is brought in. Should it not then be kept in good condition? It was Often the case during last winter that an empty vehicle was a good load for a team. It was on this street that one of the beet fire engine* in Atlanta stuck in the mud end had to be left till morning, oue night last winter, on returning from a fire that occurred on the Macon k Western ftailroad.and yet we believe that no steps have been taken to McAderalze or otherwise plaee it in a good, safe, passable condition. It demands attention from Whitehall street to the Macon k Western depot. From Whitehall to Forsyth the street ia almost entirely lined with substantial briik buelaeae houses, am sides there is an immense quantity of goods conveyed from the depot to the dealers over this atreet It is In very good condition now, but when the rstae come, let the sceptical see whether or not the work of McA izing should have been done. This is the time, the only time when it can be improved. Delay tbe work bll November, and tbe mod will avenge not lees than twelve laches deep, and yet this to one of the most important thoroughfares in Atlanta. _ Observer The Herald Job Office executes Letter Heads, Note Heads, Bill Heads, Cards, Circulars, ttc„ in the beet style, and at living prices.

A farmer told us a few days since that it was impossible to leave his young chick- out a single night. We told a merchant a few days since that we bad tried everything, and found cats the most effectual. He replied that the rats in his store could whip a cat. Yesterday we had a friend to call at our office, who informed us that he had cap tured over two hundred within a very short time, and one or two occasions had captured as many as thir teen. His plan is very simple, and consists of the kind of bsit he uses, which is nothing more or less than a basin of clear water. He sets the common wire irap over a basin of water, and the rats to get to the water will crowd the trap full every night until they are thinned out. Purple and Fine Linen.—a novel, by Edgar Faw cett. G. W. Carleton k Co., publishers, New Yoik. No one who begins to read this novel can fail to recog nize a certain charm and brilliancy of style. The rapidity with which incident follows incident, the freshness shown in the painting of eveiy character, the novelty of its dramatic situation, its witty dialogue and tbe dariDg nature cf its snbjest, all go to make up work of originality, vigor and sprightliness. Its les- in is wholesome, and it well deserves to count its readers by the thousands. The story is essentially a New York one, and the people who figure in it are genuine New York people. Almost every conceivable scene of life among fashionably dissipated New York classes is placed before the reader, and these scenes Mr. Fswcett draws with the hand o f a master.

Laird, from whose fruit stand sundry articles had disappeared, which were supposed to be in the possession of the negro, Stephen Brown. Steve said that he thought he would be able to find the goods, and the constable was out with him during the day making the search, with what success we could not learn. No investigation of the case has as yet taken place. $ Justice Hammond tried Mr. Alex. Bridges for assault and battery—whipping a lazy little negro in his em ploy. Mr. Bridges was discharged. Thos. Finley for the State, Col. McAfee for the defense. Justice Sasseen yesterday issued peace warrants against Henry Clark, Jacob Clark and Francis Wago ner, all colored, at tbe instance of Tom Bailey, colored. It seems that about fourteen years ago Bailey killed a relative of these Clarks at Jonesboro, stood his trial for murder and was acquired. These Clarks finding out he was here havo threatened his life—hence the warrants- The case is set for a hearing this morning.

CITY POLICE COURT. “The Court is prepared—the lawyers all met, The Judge takes his seat, a terrible show, As Capt. Macheath says, and when one’s in debt, The sight’s as unpleasant a one as I know." The invigorating breezes of yesterday morning were playing and pranking with every movable object around the old guard house, and Jonsen and his ••wits" were all ready, and Marshal Thomas was “a settin* thar" with a blled shirt ou (Barry lays he laid up on Sunday and had it washed), ana the usual crowd of dead beats and hangers on was out in fall force, and 10>£ o’clock came and no Recorder. The non- appearacce of the ever faithful “Ten” caused Jonsen to move around restless like a fellow feels before he gets his morning “nip”—nervous like. It to a curious thing to set and watch the crowd and wonder what has become of the Recorder. But at last he came puffing and blowing round the corner like a new coal burning engine, and went straight to the throne of municipal justice. The first case called was the name of a genuine Hol lander, who is noted in this city for keeping the best Cincinnati beer on draught to be found. Our friend having an idea that hs was threatened with the “pre vailing," went to a city physician to get a pre scription, which was composed of rhubarb, opium, capsicum, mustard, gum camphor, horse tadish, vanil la bark, glycerine, wine of tar, a leetlc comfrey, and took a dose of it; but did not before he had dosed himself pretty thoroughly with beer, and was ordered by the physician not to drink any more, which outrag ed him beyond description, and he went about “like a bandit chief who strides the walk and tears his hair alone." His oaths were terrific, but expressive: “ Gottsdonnsrkreuzchockscherenoth!” How Breitman broke the bush! O, let me see dat lager bier! O, let me at ’um rush ! Und isb mein Jack-knife sharpe and true ? Und ish mein Bthrong ariu goot ? To get von quatt of lager bier I’d sphill a tea of bloot.” In this phrenzied mood he came up with Rose How ard, a delightfal village maiden, and displaced his gallantry ty striking her bolow the belt, contrary to all rules of the ring. He presented a certificate from his family physician stating that the above mentioned dose was calculated to get one a little cranky, and in consideration of this fact he was only required to pay ten anl costs. Amanda Dougherty, luxuriating under a Derby hat with the crown stove in and the brim turned up be hind, with her balmoral tacked in her boots and a chew of balsam in her left cheek, was sauntering with fashionable bravado under the window of a rival princess, whom she suspected bad taken the place in the affections of one whose breast was wont to pillow her own weary head. The latter removed a common cigar from her dainty month, and remarked sollo “Uv all unkommon objects, That akraus my vishun hum, The strikenest and quaintest Is that gal a chawin’ gum." This aroused all the p assions of the houses of Lancaster and York. and the war- rioresses met in the room of the innocent cause of all the fuss. Coucluding not to transform his apartments into a battlefield, he gently pushed Dough- erty into the hall, and gathering an old-fashioned cow- hide, he reminded her of old times by giving her a dozen or more hide-looseners across the shoulders. The police woke up abcut this tt<ge of the melee, Rad carried the Dougherty to the lock-up, where she was let off with five dollars and costs. “ I womd not die in winter. When whisky punches flow ; When perty gals are skating O’er fields of ice and snow ; When sassidge meat isphrying, And hickory nuts is thick— Ob ! who would think of dying, Or even getting sick! " Mr. Stower was caught by the police in tho act of falling and rescued, from a liquory, if not from “ su^ar-and-watery " gr*»vo. Stower had stowed several quarts, more or less, of imported twist-knee under his belt and stationed himself on Peters street to see the 'stars fall. Failing to see anything like a meteoric dis play, he went in and took a moteoric survey through a wet tumbler inverted. He then came out and tried it again with tho naked eje. By reason of the bricks in his hat he failed to get his occular to an angle of the requisite number of degrees, and merely got a glimpse of the carriage lamps and the gaslights. He needed no further introduction. Ho was at once gratified that Grier's Almanac had not humbugged him, and enrions bystanders heard him exclaim— “ Eye of Grier and toe of frogs, Wool of brickbats—* m a hog’s !’ ” After this incantation from Macbeth’s witches, he pronounced it “ mostsmagnieficen speckickle natural- itatory." He then remarked “bully," and was in the act of taking a Northern v;ew when the aforesaid fall- ing stars bewildered him, and he reeled into the arms of the practical police, and followed the “ stars " of another sort into the solemn stillness of the Barry- onial catacombs. He was released on payment of ten and costs. A colored chap by the name of Waters, aud supposed by some to be the Deke of Tidewater, in disguise, came up the street Saturday evening wbooi ing and yelling liko a wild Camanche Indian. He invaded the pre cincts of an interesting young heroine of some sixty summers, clad in a waterfall and a pair of over-shoes, who shrieked for the “Perlice” to -come and “rally round the flag, boys.” The Duke abused the officer for his bruequenes*. but the Court elevated his grace to the tune of ten and costs. Allen Overton, chief musician of the rock bri gade was arrested by Marshal Thomas for throwing a rock at a little girl, which, if it had hit her, the Marshal was candidly and unswervingly of the opinion that death would have been her portion. George Moreland and John Luckie disturbed the peace and qniet of Sabbath afternoon of the citizens of Whitehall street by coming the hat game. Luckie’s name stood him out and ho got off, while Moreland pays five and costs. Adam Overby supports his mother-in-law, and in turn he thinks she ought to assist in keeping his linen O. K. This was not the case on Sunday morn ing when Adam had formed his ablutions and prepared himself to get into his clean shirt. As usual the but tons were off. which so riled Adam that before he could apply the breaks to his feelings he had cursed out the whole household in general, and the mother- in-1 w in particular. Ten and costs garnished with a severe lecture on domestic happiness from the court. George Page, who had been out looking for the new comet recently discovered in Vienna, through a glass tickler, nntil 12 o’clock Saturday night, finally became dizzy and swooned into the arms of the police—five dollars. George Veal is as nice a piece of cutlet as ever came into Court. He had had one leg cut off at tho knee and one eye punched out, over which he wore a conspicuous green blind. George got hold of some valley lau on Saturday night, which waa so strong that it gave him the twist-knee in his wooden leg. The court thought that a man with two good legs couldn’t walk much with such a load, and was satisfied that a one-legged fellow couldn’t stand it, and let George pay five dollars and costs. This about wound up the day’s performances, and the curtain fell amidst tnmultuons applause. W. P. Siler Redivitos.—We hear this question sometimes asked, “What has become of Siler?" From a copy of tbe Shreveport (La.) Times, we see a local notice headed “Check Your Baggage, Sit?” and goes on to say: “How oiten, when hot, tired, hair filled with cin ders, and clothes looking like you had crawled through a coal hole and been beaten with a aoot-big, have the above sounds fallen on your cars with a rasping nerve—torturing effect from a thousand throats, on the arrival of the cars, or boat at your destination? Unless Job was an Irritable man compared with you in point of meekness, reader, we know that you have thought cuae words if you have not uttered them, and consigned the whole tribe of hackmen to the lowest depths of regions, Plutonian In what a happy contrast are things managed by our go-ahead, wide awake friend Siler, of the transfer. He has the exclusive right of checking baggage on the Texas and Pacific railway; meets the traveler on every incoming train, takes his checks, and thus relieves him of that annoyance, by delivering his baggage at any hotel, boat, or private residence. Siler never dis appoints one, as he looks after everything himself, and is not above ahouldering a trunk himself when neces sary. He intends to have a hack ruuning to every portion of the city shortly, at a reasonable rate. Hs charges travelers but 60 cents per trunk, and 25 cents for city transfer.

As no sugar is used in the manufacture, the saccharine mat ter contained in our Lager Beer is only that derived from the vegetable ingredient* employed. We therefore confidently place our CITY BREWE RY LAGER BEER in open and square competition with any other manufacture, assured that aa a bever age containing* considerably larger percentage of nu tritive and tonic propeities, in proportion to weight or volume, than any other offered in the 3 uth, it com mends itself to all consumers as the most healthful.

FECHTER, MERCER & CO. julyl3-tf Broad Street Bridge.—The committee of the City Council on Public Buildings and Grounds, to gether with the City Engineer and a committee of citizens, composed of Col.
