Among those present we noticed Mr. Malone, the father of the plaintiff in error. It is expected that tbe decision of the Conrt in this csss will be announced on Tuesday morning next. Board of Education, NEW TEACHERS ELECTED. At a meeting of the Board of Education yesterday, the following teachers were elected D. Wills, D. D„ Principal Boys’ High School, in place of Protestor H.

The German Lutherans of Atlanta have for some time held divine service* in a hall on Broad street. A few weeks ago they concluded to build a house of worship, and, although their number is not very large, they have succeeded ia buying a lot at the junction of Whitehall and Forsyth streets, and have also suc ceeded in raising about }800, Their little church la almost finished, and they still stand in need of a few hundred dollars wherewith to complete It, and they, therefore, solicit the aid of their friends. ang24- tf Bslldlag sad Improvements. Work on the nsw Catholic charch is progressing in a satisfactory manner, and the prospect of enjoying st an early day the use of tbe finest house of worship in the city most be gratifying to the members of the Charch and friends of the denomination. A number of large and substantial residences are being erected on Marietta and Washington streets. The magnificent residence of Mr. S, M. Inman, on Forsyth street is now roaring its bead, an ornament and attraction to the western portion of the city. One of the principal points in this building is observatory, which is of sufficient height to over look the entire city. Bat a few days ago the ground was broken for the base of a commodious building for General Austell on the corner of Pryor and Line streets, in the rear of the house now occupied by Messrs. A. C. A *B. F. Wyly, and at this time tbe brick work, under the su pervision of Captain Castleberry, is being rapidly executed. Alderman Morris, yesterday, moved into his new building on ths corner of Garnett and Peters street. The house which has just been completed is supplied with every modern appointment, and reflects credit on Captain Fay, the architect, Mr. John Stephens, who executed the wood work, Mr. B. Prince, whe perform ed the brick work, and all others whose skill brought' ths new Alderman’s permanent future borne Into e intense. The building of Gspt. Henry Jackson, on the corner of Alabama and Pryor streets, is rapidly approaching completion. Being in the central portion of tho city it wlU doubtlese be occupied by a wholesale firm, as they are steadily concentrating in tbe heart of tbe city. These are but a few of tbe many banding Improve ments now under process of construction in Atlanta, and we shall notice others from time to time in order to show that the spirit of enterprise, lor which Atlanta la famous, has undergone no abatement whatever On the contrary, the bouae, now beiag erected are of a better dsee than ever before built in the history of the city. thing more important than the host of lovely girls for whom Monroe county was always noted, and wnich has acquired for her tb6 banner county of the State. No longer than yesterday a representative of this class was present in Atlanta, and taking her as a fair specimen of Monroe county girls, we would suggest the propriety of a number of our own young men go ing down and looking ont for themselvea. It is rarely that a prettier young lady graces the Gate City with her presence, than the one now under consideration- or else ho might have mistaken it for tho first avmt courier of a meteoric shower, aud was in the act of dodging when the police discovered the irregularity of his motion. The Conrt sent him down to Barry to attract his attention from astronomy to geological in vestigations. Charles Miller, ono of tho last of the Millerites, came in minus a shirt collar, and his coat buttoned up a la militaire. (Do you expect a man to have a thou sand shirts?) Charles sported a heavy mustache- golden in tbe sun and auburn in the Bbade. Ho got drunk nnder a false impression that it *ras his birth day. and very naturally, begau to think of his far away sweetheart. The police oaibraced him as he was singing— "We parted by the gates in June. That soft and balmy month. Beneath the sweetly beaming moon, And (wonth—bunth—snnth—bunth— I can’t find a rhyme to month.) Years were to pass ere we should meet; A wide and yawning gulf Divides me from my lov« so sweet, While (ulf—sulf—mulf—dulf—stuck again; I can’t get any rhyme to gulf. I'm iu s gulf myself j Oh ! how I dread in my soul To part from my,sweet nymph, While years should their long seasons roll. Before (hympb—dymph—syroph—I guess I’ll have to l6t it go at that.) Beneath my fortune’s stern decree My lonely spirits sunk, For I a weary soul should be And a(bunk—dunk—ruDk—sk—That'll never do in the world.)" The court furnished the rhyme for Charles by sug gesting "drunk,” and he appeared relieved. Ten. Joe Huff took on a periodical fit of being disagreea ble, and went off in a great "huff," at some remarks made by a fellow-laborer. A quiet investigation re sulted in Joe’s having to "huff it” for ten and costs to keep from being shut out from the light of day. Oliver Wendell Heard had boen hearing something which somebody had been saying about him, aud he got up such a fuss in his barber shop that the whole neighborhood heard it If be pays ten dollars he will hear no more of it If he docs not—“you heard me." Amanda Dougherty is the mother of s very small child, but with most powerful lungs. An adjoining room is occupied by Miss Jane Gardner, who, though of the black and tan variety, is apparently as nervous, and has as much disgust for babies as old maids in general have, and for the young Dougherty In particular. Sbe remonstrated with Manda for al lowing her child to cry so, and used some not very complimentary remarks towards babies in general, and Manda's in special; "Do yon think, if I’d a baby, That I’d let him pull my hair ? Do you think I’d put on collars Just for him to aoil and tear ? Do you think I’d call it pretty Wnen he bit his little toe ? Yet X have known some silly mothers With their babies do just so. Do you think I’d set himcryiDg. Just to see his cunning frown ? Do you think I’d set him ws king. Just to see him tumnle down ? Would I call my baby pretty When he’d neither teeth nor hair? Yet I know some silly mothers Think their babies wonderousfair." This drew down the fury of Manda upon Jane’s head, and the result was the latter received s good beating. Because she carried the baby in her arms, and appeared unable to pay the usual fine, she got off with costs. Tbe Conrt then adjourned to enter complaint against the Street Committee in relation to a nuisance in its neighborhood. DASHES HERE AND THERE. The heavy rain which fell last aft'rnojn had only the effects of mnddyiDg the streets aud making tbe atmosphere warm- He parts his hair in the middle, wears a blue neck- tic, pearl colored pants, and his bewitching features are usually arrayed in a pensive smile. The smile flew from his face yesterday, when a waiter at his eat ing house carefully deposited a beefsteak with trim mings, on his shonlders, emptied a cup of coffee into his lap, and deposited a tureen of mashed potatoes on his shirt bosom. He jumped to his feet aud cried, "Dem it, stupid, how do I look?" "Bully," replied the waiter; "you look as though dressed for dinner. Confederate officers now serving in tho army of the Khedive of Egypt are Generals Loring, Colston, Sib ley and Reynolds; Dr. Warren, Surgeon-in-Chief. Loring, Colston and Dr. Warren aro from North Caro lina, Reynolds from Virginia, and Sibley from Mis souri. "There is a lesson in each flower, A story in each stream aud bower; On every herb o’er which we tread Are written words which, rightly read, Will lead us from earth’s fragrant sod To hope, and holiness, and God." A Western girl, after giving her lover a hearty smack, exclaimed: "Dog my cats if you baiu’t been taking a little rye, old boss.” Reprove tby friend privately, commend him public ly, and wear Lewis Clarke’s full Btyle of hats. Some cute ones have “shut down” on the practice of furnishing their friends with a chew, and knowingly remark that the revenue laws forbid them "to sell or dispose of tobacco iu any form without paying a li cense." Au old Dutchman expresses himself thusly of a cer tain class of persons, upon whom you can lay your hand without much searching: "Von some mens sblaps mo on dor shoulder und say, *1 vas glad to see you vaa so vell.’und den sticks pehind my pack his finger to his nose, I haf my own opinions of dot fel ler."

On a recent vi*it of an attache of the Herald to Forsyth, Georgia, he was fully impressed with the importance of thia moBt flourishing little city of Mid dle Georgia. Before the war Forsyth w*3 one of the best markets in that whole section, both for merchan dise and cotton. Its merchants are composed of tome of the most substantial and business men to be found anywhorc, while the Immediate country surrounding is and has always been as good as any section or the State. Since the war, Forsyth Las, unlike most of the older towns, taken, as it were, a new leace ou life. Her population has increased immensely, and her business has exceeded the bounds of all reason, when her proximity to Macon and other larger places are taken into consideration. The beat evidence of the solidity of her merchants, perhaps, consists in the fact that her business men are always besieged with "drummers" from nearly every city in the Union with offers and importunities to sell and to give as ranch time as they wanted. The wholesale merchants of Atlanta well know this fact, and hundreds of thousands of dollars have flowed from her merchants to pay for goods purchased In this city. Forsyth is in Monroe county, on the Macon and Western Railroad. This county is famous all over the State for being the birth place of some of our present os well as dead public men, and many of the leading lawyers and politicians of the State, including the present Governor, and Barney, oi tho Herald, were either born in that county, or baro resided there a portion of their lives. A very severe fire some lime ago burnt a large por tion of the town of Forsyth, and thousands of dollars were lost. Her people did not ait down to despair at their misfortunes, but imitating the go-ahead exam ple of their b|g neighbor, Atlanta, at once set to work to repair the loss. With what success, s visitor there st the present can judge. • Among the many good substantial bnalness houses now under course of construction in that place. Is a Urge plaining and saw mill which is being erected by Messrs. Willingham k Dunn. B. Pye k Son are erect ing four brick stores, besidss a large nnd commodious brick hotel. Mrs. Morse is having two stores erected. Col. Jeff Hogan is putting up a store; F. O. Mayes, B. M. Hatborn, Bramlett k Bro., aro all erecting good •tore houses, and W. W. Anderson is putting up two. Besides those, there are a great many private resi dences in course of construct ion, and old ones are be ing repaired. Tbe people generally are In good spirit* and bopefnl of a fine trade the coming season. Superior Court is in session this week, and the docket is very heavy. Captain Tom Cabaniss is the very efficient Solic;or General, and is one of the rising young lawyers of Georgia. Colonel A. D. Hammond is well known all over tbe State as one of her best attor- neys.and it is said there is never s case on tbe docket but that he is either on one side or the other. Belli farther, Forsyth has one of the best weekly pa pers in the South, and for its coming we suppose sev eral thousand eager subscribers weekly look. This is accounted for, to s great extent, from the fact that Its chief pilot is a live Alabama boy, who never eat any dirt in his life, and always kept his nose clean while at school. Bill Stone knows exactly what sort of a paper Forsyth needs, and he goea to great pains to fill the bill. There aro various other points where our attache stuck a pin down, but dees not now remember any- The Dominoe Ball at Indian springs, on Tuesday night, is pronounced a success by a gentleman who attended. Health Matters. NOTABLY SMALL MORTALITY FOR THE PAST WEEK—ONLY FIVE WHITES AND ELEVEN COLORED—MEETING OF THE HEALTH BOARD TO-DAY. As will be seen from tbe annexed report of the Sexton to the cfficientCliairman of the Board of Health, Dr. Pinckney, the mortality in Atlanta for the week ending yesterday evening wa3 only sixteen, which is so small a number that we may conclude the "summer season ” of sickness and death is over. There were only five deaths of white persons, including ono adult; while eleven colored persons were carried off. A® usual, although our negro population is considera bly smaller than the white, tho former show more than double the number of deaths. The following is the report: Atlanta, August 28, 1873.

MEETING OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH. The regular meeting of the Board of Health will be held this evening at half-past three o’clock, in the Recorder’s Court room. Meeting of tlae Board of Water Commis sioners—Interesting Reports. The Board of Water Commissioners mot at the Recor der’s Court room last night at o’clock. President Anthony Murphy presided. There were present: Messrs. Murphy, Adair, Dun ning, Toy, Terry, Hammond and Redwine. The minutes of tbe previous mooting were read aud adopted. Mr. Ketchum’s report of the amount of water fur nished by South river. He estimates that the two streams which unite to form South river will furnish exceeding 350,000 gallons every tw, nty-four hours. The report was received. Mr. Ketchum’s report as to the coat of wells was read and received. He estimates that If wells will furnish a sufficient quantity of water, it c*u bo furnished for $13,000. This he recommended some time ago if piactioable—but aftorwards withdrew his recommen dation on account of the foimation here, and haves it with the Board for experiment. Mr. Ketchum’s report of tha cost of furnishing 1,500,000 gallons of water dally, respectively from South River, from Peachtree Creek, and from the Chattahoochee, also the cost of furnishing 3.000,000 gallons daily from tho Chatta hoochee. From South River, with two miles of distributing main, 45 hydrants and means of filling cisterns at a distance from fire hydrants, $255,000. This includes all expenses necessary to the introduction of that amount of water. Total approximate estimate from Peachtree Creek, same amount of water, $280,000. From Chattahoochee River, same number of gallons, $445,000. For 3.000,000 gallons, $615,000. He recommends the South River water ou account of its quality and its economy iu point of construc tion. President Murphy thought the iron could bo bought cheaper—that the estimates of coat wero all too high. On motion tho report was received and placed on file. Dr. Redwine made some remarks relative to the re port of tbe engineer. He advocated tbo South river plan—favored reporting this plan to tho Council and get their permission to go to work, aud an assurance from the Council that they will issue tho bonds. It would take about $300,000 in bonds to bring tho wa'er from South river. Of course if the well system was practicable and cheaper it would bo adopted. He did not believe the well system practicable for maDy reasons. Thought it was time to go forward ; was willing to experiment ou the well system if thought advisable, but had no faith >n it. Col. Adair was always ready to meet any issue fairly aud squarely; concorded with Dr. Redwine; was ready for action; had been investi gating for the past six months; saw water works at various places; Atlanta needs water works to furnish water for fire, eaaitary and other purposes. Moat of the upper stories of buildings in the city were now perfectly valueless, on account oi the want of water facilities. The cisterns could bo filled for from $75,000 to $125,000, but we want more water than that. In case of a general fire, the cisterns would be exhausted in twenty miumes, and the city would be destroyed. Was willing to ask Council to is sue $300,000 in bonds, and then go to work and expend it honestly in the erection of water works. Col. J. A. Stewart made a few remarks by way of apology for his presence. Was always willing to learn. Felt no disposition to dictate. Did not know when he made his remarks on ’ChaDge that the well system was then under consideration. The well system work ed so well at Rome that he wanted Atlanta to receive similar benefits. Was a water works man even if they bad to go to tho Chattahoochee river. An experiment on the well system would not cost any great deal. Mayor Hammock was glad that Colonel Stewart present. Dr. Redwine moved that a committee of three be appointed to go before Council at a regular or special meeting, and lay before them the report of A. R. Ketchum, engineer, and ask that tbo bonds be issued to the amount of $300,000, to be used iu tbe construc tion of waterworks. Col. Adair seconded the motion. Judge Dunning made some remarks on the subject He wanted the Council to issue the bonds, aud the Commissioners would take care of the contracts. Ibis farce of asking the Council’s permission to make con tracts had been repeated too often. Dr. Redwine thought tbe Council would issue tbe bonds. Ho wanted to know whether they would not. If they would not, he, for one, would go beforo the people, and see that those who oppose it do not get back into the Council. Colonel Adair thought Dr. Redwine’s motion right Courtesy was a cheap commodity, and ho wanted the Couucil aud everybody else to know what they were about. Mayor Hammock thought water works were a neces sity— wa9 not afraid to go before the people—was sat isfied that the Council wou’d issue the bonds by a very decided majority. President Murphy thought there would bo no diffi culty about Council issuing the bonds. The resolution was adopted, and Dr. Redwine, Judge Dunning and Colonel Adair were appointed as the committee. On motion tue Board adjourned. Our Blacon Advertisers. THE MEN WHO PATRONIZE US THERE. TLe Brown House head* our list of cards there.

Cold Water Templars. ANNIVERSARY FESTIVAL OF WENONA LODGE. Concordia Hall was crowded lost evening with the young Templar* of the city and their visiting breth The occasion was the Anuiversay Festival of Wenona Lodge, of thia city. Before the festival, essays were read by three young ladies. Miss Crew, Miss Youug and Miss Paris. An elegant regalia had been offered for the success ful contestant, but the committee being unable to de cide as to who was entitled to receive it awarded it to all three of the ladies, one to each, officers of tbe lodge agreeing to procure ^thein, for the highly creditable maunsr in which they all acquitted themselvea. Mr. D. P. Hill, iu announcing the award* of the committee, made some remarka which were well received. Besides reading, there wa« also somo splendid aingiug by the members, which added greatly to the interest of tho entertainment. This over, the crowd wore invited to partake of a feast of good thiugs, consisting of every desirable delicacy. It is not necessary to add that this was accepted 1a real earnest, and enjoyed to the full extent of the ca pacity of the recipients. It was, indeed, a royal banquet for the little folks, and will be remembered through maDy distant days. Tbe audience did not disperse until a late hour. We conclude that the visit and stay of young representatives from a distance has been rendered pleasant and agreeable. •9 J. M.

The Reeding Room, on Marietta street, continues to be the centre of attraction to all who desire a first- class article of Wine or liquor, in the handsomest fitted up establishment in Oeorgia. We are glad to learn that it is now doing a fine business. Tbe proprietors have made ample arrangements for the fall and winter season, and are now ready to accommodate the biggest crowd of gentlemen that can be got together. A Bad Bereavement.—We deeply regret to learn of the death of Mrs. Morion Jock, whose funeral took place in this city yesterday. Sbe had beon ailing for about three weeks, but no one apprehended a fatal termination of her Illness until a few days ago. Mrs. Jack was a moat estimable lady, and her departure will be mourned by a large circle cf friends end ac quaintances.

The Georgia State Lottery. A BIG INSTITUTION—THIRTY-TWO HUNDRED A DAY. A person who is not conversant with tbe matter, would be astonished to know the extent of business done by the Georgia State Lottery of this place. As we Btated in the Herald of last Sunday, one gentle man drew a prize of over $1,000, aud on Tuesday, over $3,200 were drawn, one combination drawing $800. Every day from $200 to $5,000 are drawn sums running from $5 to $5,000. Tho.e aro sixteen regular vendors of tickets in the city, who make their living out of this lottery, and one of them obtains an income that runs as high aa $3,000 per an num. The sales aro increasing every day, aud the lottery is widening its circle of customers. Almost every city and village in Georgia contributes its daily amount to this Atlanta Institution. It is successful because Hit fair. The gentlemen who control it art men of the very highest standing, aud of uuquestion ed integrity, and above all, tho lottery is in support of a highly commendable institution—viz: The Or phans’ Free School. Personal Intelligr Major Jos. A. Bceks, of Griffin, gave U3 the light of his pleasant countenance for a short time yestorday. We had a pleasant call yesterday from Mr. Gwinn, who represents tho sterling house of George Thomas & Co., Baltimore, aud he is a perfect representative of tho better class of commercial traveling men.

We learned late yesterday evening that the contract for tbe building of tha Roswell Railroad was com pleted and signed, and that work will begin at once. Messrs.

This road will be only eight or nine miles In longtb, and will tap the Air Line Road about ten miles from tho city. It will be a narrow guage, and the grading will be completed in sixty days. This is one of the magic feats of our euterprising community. The road has already been surveyed. The Hop Last Night.—The pleasant party at the Kimball last evening, was in keeping with the previ ous hops heretofore given this season at that place. At c-acli occurrence of these social festivities, the guests getting better acquainted, most of those form alities which usually attend fashionable hops are die pensed with, aud each strive to make ths evening pleasant for tbe other and true sociality. The number, owing to the threatening weather, was not as large as on last Thursday, but still tbe hall was comfortably filled. Prof. O’Hara, the great walkist, will, we under stand, give a free exhibition at 5 o’clock Saturday evening at the I'aiade. Mr. O’Hara is on bis way to the Macon Fair, where he proposes to walk agalust anybody in the country. arrests had Station House Report.—Only nin been made up to ten o'clock last nigbt. Nos. 9,18, 22, will draw a prize at tbe office of E. f Marshall, No. 4 Alabama street, this morning. Put Flowers on Your Table.—Set flow ers ou your table, a whole nosegay, if you can get it, or but two or three, or a single flower, a rose, a pink, a daisy. Bring a few daisies or buttercups from your last field work, and keep them alive in a little water ; preserve but a bunch of clover, or a handful of flowering grass, one of the most elegant of nature’s productions, and yon have somt>- thing on your table that reminds yon of God’s creation, and gives yon a link with the poets that have done it most honor. Put a rose, or a lily, or violet on your table, and you and Lord Bacon have a custom in common, for this great and wise man was in the habit of having flowers in season set upon his table, we believe, morning, noon and night; that is to say, at all meals, seeing that they were growing all day. Now here is a fashion that will last you forever, if you please—never change with silks, and velvets, and silver forks, nor be dependant on caprice and chan ges to give them importance aud a sensation. Flowers on the morning table are especially suited to them. They look like the happy wakening of the creation ; they bring the breath of nature into your room ; thoy seem the very representative and embodiment of the very smiles of your home, the graces of good morrow.—Leujh Hunt. Dangers of Tobacco Chewing.—Recently there was brought into a San Francisco Court one Annie Welch, a muscular lemale, charged with attempting to murder her hus band. His head was broken, he was bruised up generally, and had evidently been rolled in the goiter in a very energetic manner. When the defendant was called on for ex planation, she described the provocation by which the wretched man had brought the trouble upon himself. He was given to the filthy habit of tobacco chewing, and with the usual recklessness of persons so depraved, he permitted the vile juice to soil his shirt bosom. He had been adorned with clean linen that very morning, and duly warned against such carelessness. In five minutes after Mrs. Welch observed the filthy decoc tion staining the immaculate shirt front. This was two much. She seized a rolling-pin and vigorously reminded him of the duty he owned to society and public decency. The Court inflicted a small fine, considering the aggravation an unbearable one. Au American writer on English nobility says that a sensible man will no longer accept a peerage, being conscious that it will make him more ridiculous than respected; and an honest man will not take a title. This is simply bosh. The writer probaWy got his information from people who haven’t titles and hunger after them, and who, therefore, view the baronial escutcheon as the fox did the proverbial grapes. Nothing is more sought after in Great Britain than title, not even wealth. It is au open sesame to all society, and there are probably not ten commoners in the United Kingdom who would decline a peerage. The captain of a trading vessel says that while at Byron’s Island, in the South Pacific, Rome months since, he saw ilio real Sir Roger Tichborne, all tattooed from forehead to heel, and holding rank as chief among the natives. He could hardly be distinguished as a white man. Referring to an account of the Ticb- borue trial, he said to the captain: “I am the rightful heir to that title aud property, and all that is here stated in this paper is false. How can I appear in England to claim my justrighU? There is no escape from hero.” Tho deserted homes of New Yorkers who are off at the beaches are said to be witness ing some curious scenes during the absence of their mistresses. Grand houses on Fifth avenue have been kept up for the benefit of the servants, and the sounds of many a revel may be hoard to proceed from drawing room windows. The end of war and bloodshed is not yet, as Colt s Firearms Company has just received an order for 30,000 pistols. Smith & Wesson have commenced work upon 20,000 Russian pistols, and will m&ke about 150 daily. Prince Napoleon oaks to be reinstated os a general of division of the French army,as every goueral who has held a ohief oommaod beforo the enemy most, from an old law of Franoe, be retained in position till death.
