The Lodges of Good Templars are making extensive preparations for a Christinas Tree on Christmas night, at the lodge-room of Aurora Lodge, near this office. They have gone to work in earnest to make the affair a complete success. Tickets will be sold by the members. A .Uptake. In the returns of voting yesterday, published in the Telegraph this morning, Mr. W . f l. Nel son received ‘126 votes, instead of 160, as that paper had it. Mr. Nelson’* friends say he was swindled out of enough votes yesterday, let alone the printer’s blunder. The Entertainment To-'Mklii. Mr. Russell arrived in tliis city last night, and will perform as advertised to-night. To those visiting him to-night, we promise that they will witness a performance refined ami amusing, and one to which it will ho a pleasure to refer in years to come. Go by all means. Cold Water Temple. A strong effort is being made by frienos of the temperance cause to organize a Cold Water Temple among the little children of our city. This is truly a commendable movement and wc hope all the little boys and girls of the city will attend the meeting to-morrow night at Aurora Lodge rooms, in Hollingsworth Block. Personal. Mr. T. M. Garrett, formerly Master of Trans portation of the Macon & Brunswick Railroad left our city last Monday to take charge as Superintendent of the Edgefield, Henderson A Kentucky Railroad. Thus Macon has lost a good citizen and as clever a young man as can be found anywhere. We are glad to learn of his good fortune, and trust he may do well in his new sphere. Wonderful. It is truly astonishing how many valuable and beautiful holiday gifts Brown A Cos. have sold in the last day or two. The store is full at all hours with ladies and gentlemen pur chasing or admiring the numerous articles arranged upon shelves and counters so tempt ingly. The time is 6liort between now and Christmas, and interested parties should hurry up, or else go without making a present to the dear ones at home. Tin - Herat 1 lliaease in IlirCoim. try. We regret to learn that the epizootic is pre vailing and rapidly spreading oyer the planta tions in all the cotton belt below us. On one place in Houston county four mules and one horse have already died out of a herd of twenty, and all the balance are sick. Our friends in the country are truly having a hard lime of it. But Don Quixote said, “for tune always leaves a door open in misfortune to admit a remedy.” Wliat effect will this have upon the future of cotton '! Tlie I-’ahir of Avis. Mr. John 11. Marshall, formerly with tlie Rose and Harry Watkins Troupe, has arrived in tlie city and is busily engaged in advertising the Fakir of Ava, who performs here on Fri day night. We think we discover in this Fakir an old friend and one of the best magicians in the country. His tricks are new—none of tlie old clap-trap things a hundred years old—and his performance is really meritorious. The prices of admission are placed at low figures, thus enabling everybody to attend. The pre sentation of gifts is a feature within itself, a* he gives away only such articles as are really worth taking home. ■*.*. Errors. For some time past tlie engineer of this col umn has been worried nigh unto death by the multiplicity of errors, both typographical and -.’ramatieal, appearing in his articles. This th-kled our handsome brother of the Telegraph, aad lie would punch us in the short ribs and langli over our misfortune. Bnt the intellect ual compositor probably left off troubling our peace of mind and went to work at the other office, these charming errors: In qieaking of Col. Hardeman’s resignation, tlie printer makes Watson say, “but no steps wera taken to supply his places.” Again, in giving notice of our friend, Sol Smith Russell, he says Mr. Smith sings well.” Now it’s bad enough for Sol to carry the name of Smith in the mid die, but when it comes to piling it on to one end, Sol can t like it. Who laughs now ? Isaac* House Saloon. I his famous saloon, under tlie control of that prince of good fellows, Ullmann, it flour ishing like the proverbial bay tree. The bar is stocked with the purest wines and liquors and genuine imported cigars. Gasper Malado, the celebrated oyster opener, is with him, and is ready to supply customers with oysters in every shape. Go around and see Ullmann. dec 13 eod II iifticnl. The first number of tlm Georgia Musical Ec lectic, published by Guilford, Wood tX Cos., Macon and Atlanta, ami edited by Arthur L. Wood, found Its way to our table this morn ing. We rather like the new magazine. It con tains musical information; its selections are good, and its typographical appearance admi rable. Besides nine or ten large pages of read ing matter, it gives each month an excellent piece of music. Every musician and music lover should subscribe to it. Only SI.OO per year Our thanks ure duo Messrs. Guilford, Wood iX Cos. for the following choice pieces of music: Gone to the Heavenly Garden —song and chorus—words I*v -v N. Mitchell; music by J. C.

The best in the wori.d “ Putzri A Jacobs Favorite.” Nov 27 tf The Jmnel will case still occupies the attention of the United States Circuit Court in New York. The controversy involves the possession of many millions of dollars, which have been in dispute for forty years. The plaintiff, George Washington Bowen, has been examined, and has testified that Madame Jumel was his mother, although he was an illegitimate child. The hand ling of this old woman’s money —she was the wife of Aaron Burr, and divorced— lias eluded Mr. Bowen more than once before, and though lie may be her sou— for she apparently led a very loose life it would seem impossible to prove it. • —-♦ ♦ — The closest scrutiny and investigation will probably fail to establish the origin of the Fifth Avenue Hotel tire, and doubt less no amount of inquiry will show that, tbare was any person directly responsible But itseems slcar that there have been vio lations of tlie building laws in the addi tion to tlie buildings for which the respon sibility maybe fixed, and should be. Mayor's Office, Macon, December 10,1 872. IN addition to the usual inconv uience which . lias been suffered by the public from the prevalence of the horse disease, we now see a complete blockaded condition of our railroads and the almost total suspension of all commer cial business in our city for mere lack of street transportation. This unusual state of affairs suggests the want of some immediate relief, both to the railroads and the merchant. Upon consultation, therefore, with the railroad au thorities and the different dray companies in the city, I hereby give notice to any and all per sons in the adjoining counties, that they are in vited and requested to bring in their ox-teams and assist us in the dray work of our city for the next two or three weeks, at the end of which time we hope to be able to resume the horse and mule labor. Parties Winging their oxen to the city will be allowed to use them in the (image of all goods FREE OF LICENSE. It is believed that twenty to thirty teams could find constant work here for several days, at good paying prices. decll tf W. A. HUFF, Mayor. .FNO. B. WEEJIS. ATTORNEY AT LAW.
