Alexander, of the Orifiin Sur, called on us this morning. Don’t Forget the aale of Holmes A Clay’s stable and lots. You are rarely offered a better opportunity to make money. Tub Musical Concert promises to be a rich musical treat, judging from the preparations that are being made. Remember it takes place on the 18th. The Pibumont ano Arlington.—We refer our readers to the advertisement of this ster ling Company. We know of no other that we would recommend as cordially. The Ice Factory. —lt is in contemplation to remove the Macon Ice Factory from its present location at the foot of Second Street to a point on the Railroad near the Macon and Brunswick Depot. It is said tliut this will save many thousands of dollars in the way of drayage, correcting a vital mistake made at the time It was placed in its present position. Social Dancing Acadbmt.—We call the attention of our citizens to the opening of Wm. DeUnanaga and Prof. Alimon's school on to morrow (Saturday) afternoon 3 o'clock. All their patron’s and old pupils are specially Invited to meet them at that hour, and as many othera as desire to learn this fashionable ac complishment. Days of tuition, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, ?,}{ to s>i p. m. Young ladies and gentlemens class instructed on Monday, Wednesday aud Friday nights from 7>s to Let them have a large turnout. Mayor’s Court. —When we gazed upon the Mayor’s docket thin morning and enw the ab sence of a single entry, we gave vent to tears. Not at the loss of the items—oh, no, but the reflection that our hitherto turbulent city as suming an aspect of peaco and sobriety moves us. In vain have we looked from Collinsville for an item, but the ebon-hued police of that section stalk abroad and midnight marauders hide low. With a pensive smile we leave the court room and sigh at the memory of the fond moments speut therein. Such is life. Killing of a Radical Hog, and a Demo cratic Justification. —We met a northern New York man last night traveling South for no other reason as he alleged, “than the fun of the thing.” When he got here he read nu merous telegraphic reports of the recent elec tions ; saw the Southern people much depress ed, which he was sorry for, but still believed all would come out precisely right in the end. After stating that “Greeley’s chances in this election were about as poor as the man’s horse whose tail had to be tied into knot to keep him from slipping through the cellar,” he said : “I’m an unadulterated Democrat, but my dad dy is jeat the other way—abolitionist before the war, Radical after that, Radical now.— When 1 was twenty I ran away from dad—was gone three years, when I suddenly turned up at home one morning. The old fellow looked at me rather mad until I showed him plenty of money I’d made, and a trunk full of good clothes. Upon that he determined to kill the fattest hog he had. But there lived just across the street an Irish Democrat by the name of Pat Flannigan. Pat and dad were in the habit of having their political discussions, and at three different times came to blows. After killing the fattest bog in honor ef my return, he ordered just half of it to be hung up above stairs to be cooked next day, and the other to be taken to the cellar to bo pickled and saved. Next morning, quite early, I heard the old man calling me lustily: " Joe, that Democrat Irishman, Flannigan, has stolen that half of that hog I intended to cook for you to-day, the dirty, Democratic rascal; I always knowed Democrats wouldn’t do to trust.” And the eld man actually commenced crying. “Dad,” said I, "I wouldn’t cry about that.” “Why not?” “If that Flannigan had been a Radical he womld have stolen both sides." The Bign Question. —We have received the following communication from a citizen: Mr. Jxxol: Our municipal authoritiea passed an ordinance at their meeting Monday night, compelling merchants and others to take down all awns reaching across the sidewalk. In op position to this measure I enter this protest in behalf of my fellow-townsmen who have incur red heavy expense In advertising their business by means of ornamental signs extending across the sidewalk. Ido not attempt to say that all signs put up In this manner are ornaments to a city, but will assert that had it not been for those feeble attempts, the city would not now be beautiried with the signs she now possesses. Why should we not enjoy the same privileges granted by other cities? New York, with her crowded thoroughfares, can find room for signs of all kinds. Likewise, Savannah, Augusta, At lanta. and nearly every city of any magnitude in the Union. Every citizen is aware that in no instance is the business capacity of a city ao wall exhibited as in the local advertisements dis played in signs. A visitor or a resident always look upon a man who advertises his wares as a person thoroughly capable of prosecuting his mmlneas. Then why attempt to check that spirit of enterprise, the result of which is to give in a business reputation, encouragement to the ar tist, and beauty to the city! If our venerable city fathers desire a refor mation in the way of sign-hanging let them do away with unsightly awnings ana have them eractcd in a uniform manner; regulate the haicbt of signs, and dear the sidewalks of auch obstructions as goods boxes, eta. Signs hung at a proper height do not inter fere with engines going or coming from fires. This. I suppose was the objection In the mind’s eve of the fond parent of the outrageous reso lution in question. t The improvement* just suggested, would, |la the opinion of the subscriber, be a step in the right direction and would not involve any aacuniary lass to the business man, an object that should alwaya be taken Into consideration when legislating for the people. But to be brief. As au set of charity to those of our Aldermen who voted In the af finnat.ve, 1 am compelled to think they moat have indulged in stretches of imagination, by which they were transported to the cob-web- Man times of Charles n. from the disastrous uArts of which they had not fully recovered vNd in council Mtembled Tropheaying that tu the final reading of the resolution, they will ruc.msldcr their hasty aud erroucous action, that the spirit of progressive Industry will stimulate them to throw aside ancient faml-m"**. *>7 80 doiu K allowing our citizens to advance to the same standard of uarfection which haa been attained by our sls ter cities, I throw out these suggestions. The thanks of our merchants and others arc duo the Alderman who so warmly, but fruit -1,-sslv defended our side of the sign cause, and to him they are tendered by Justicb. Brown Hotel Arrival*.

Thb Great Dkt Goons House of S. Waxelbaum and Brothbil— This mammoth Dr\ Goods House is truly one of the greatest in all Ibc Southern country. We doubt if there arc many which are more extensive on the North American continent outside of New York and Philadelphia, and even in those cities there are not many carrying heavier stocks or doing a larger trade. Occupying the centre of Triangular Block— running through from Second street to Cot ton Avenue, and from cellar to roof, ikeir are five grand divisions to tb*> establishment. The cellars or ground rooms are used for packing and unpacking goods for ail depart ments and for the storage of Domesties. The right hand floor above Is the chief whole sale department, and here we find a ship load of Prints, Domestics, Alpaceas of all colors, Janes, Blcaehings, Shirtings, Stripes, Checks, Giughums, Fancy Dress Goods, Red and Wldte Flannels, Opera Flannels, Tickings, Brown Coods, Corsets, Liuseys, Poplins, and so on, running through the entire catalogue. On the left is the general Retail Room, and a busy scene it always presents, morning, noon and night. It would be much easier to tell what is not in there than what is. It contains among other things the largest stock of silks in Georgia—some of them running ns high as SIOO per pattern. Our ladies can find anything there from an Inch of ribbon to a cashmere shawl. The two floors above are set apart for ready made clothing, boots, shoes, hats, shawls, hosiery, gloves, linens, shirts, balmoral skirts, cloaks, blankets, quilts and notions ad infini- Utm. But it is useless to call every article by name, it would take up half the space in our paper. Dealers must go and see for themselves. A su perficial glance makes one think there is enough on hand to supply the whole trade of Macon for months to come, and yet so great is the trade of the house, it is necessary to send off new orders for fresh supplies almost every day in the week. Scarcely a steamer leaves New York for Savannah without having con signments for “S. W. & 8., Macon.” The Senior requests us to make the positive statement as a fact that they sell at Keio York prices. We found the house this morning full of country merchants and citizens, and every clerk just as busy as he could be; and no wonder, for such a 6tock as that will attract people to it the dullest day in the week, and at this season no one wishing to purchase will go by it. A large capital, industry, the most scrupu lous honor, and a long series of years devoted to the business, has placed this house in the front rand of Dry Goods Dealers in Georgia. It is known far and wide as such and will continue to be for a long time to come. oct9-3w Fresh every Morning. —A few line Ten ncsse shoats, superior pork sausages, made from the same.

A Young .linn Shoots his Father and then Commits Suicide. llenri-rendiuir Scene. Savannah, Oct. 11.—This morning bc tweeu 10 aud II o’clock, Alexander Dil lon, son of Mr. David R. Dillon, Banker, entered liis father's office pale and evi dently laboring under some uiontal excite ment. He entered the back room of the office where his father transacts his private business. On seeing him his father begun to reprimand him severely. Tbe young man swore lie would not put up witli such language, and in the excitement of the moment drew his pistol and tired at liis father three times, one ball taking effect in tbe right arm, one in the head and another in the thigh. After committing this act lie shot himself in the breast and expired in about twenty minutes. The wounds iutlicted on Mr. Dillon are not dangerous. Tlie mother on hearing of the fatul trag edy rushed out of her house and ran down the street to the office, screaming, and la menting, abusing and threatening the father for what she supposed to bo ids own net. On rcuching the office, she en deavored to get iu tlie room where Mr. Dillon, was, but was refused. She then entered tlie room where tho dead body of her sou lay. Tlie scene that followed beggars description. All the agonized feelings of a bereaved mother were given free vent to. She wailed over tlie lifeless body of her sou, and with tearful eyes and heavy groans kissed his cold lips. There wus hardly a dry eye among the crowd that thronged the streets. Mr. Dil lon sat in his office until his wounds were dressed. Coroner Shcftall visited the scene of tragedy at noon to-day aud held an in quest over the body of young Dillon. Tlie verdict rendered, after a patient examina tion of witnesses, was that deceased came to his death by a pistol-shot wound indict ed by his own hand. Unohoo. FINANCIAL & COMMERCIAL.

So heavy a majority against Radicalism in a State whose total population is only 1,184,104 is remarkable and significant; but an analysis of it reveals another fact still more interesting. Of tho total population of Georgia 038,002 aro whites, and 545,- 142 are colored —the white excess being only 03,820. If tlie whites should vote one way and ail tlie calored men another, Hie excess of whites in tlie population would exhibit a majority of voters of about 48,000. But it seems from the re turns that the actual Democratic aud Lib eral majority is nearly three times this— showing that a considerable number of the colored voters must have either ab stained from voting, or voted with the Democrats and Liberals. If the other Southern States shall exhibit a similar re sult in November—if even a small pro portion of tlie colored voters in Missis sippi, Florida, Louisiana and Arkansas should abstain from voting, or vote for Greeley, Grant will lose every Southern State except South Carolina. This would bring Greeley aud Brown up from tlie South witli 140 electoral votes out of tlie whole number, 3G6 ; and they would need to get only 44 additional votes iu tlie Northern States to have a majority. That Greeley aud Brown will conic up from the Soutli with this great array of strength, is not so improbable as it seem ed to be a month ago. The heavy Demo cratic and Liberal majority in Georgia shows that Grunt is losing ground amongst liis own partisans at tho South, and Hint the public sentiment of the intelligent classes in that region is overwhelmingly against him, with nothing but u languid negro sentiment to support him. Look ing at the Southern States in the light of tlie Georgia election, Soutli Carolina is the only one of those States tliut can he certainly claimed for him.— St. Louis Jie publican.
