It consisted of tableaux, vocal and In- UmBental music, recitations, etc. The attendance n* large and those who took part in the perform- taees acquitted themsclvos moat handsomely— Some of tho vocal music was really charming, and Mvenl ladies wore compelled to repeat their songs before they were permitted to leave tho stage. It was also onr pleasure to enjoy the hospitality of Mr. A W. Brannon, proprietor of the Chowalla Hotel, now acknowledged to be tho best house of entertainment in Southeastern Alabama: also the luxury of a drive in a turnout from 3Ir. Wm.

N. Maxwell, a citizen of Memphis, Tenn., who has been here about eight months, com mitted suicide by shooting himself in tho right tmple, tho ball coming out tho left aide of his head. Immediately after he shot himself, Capt. Simpson iummonod a jury, who rendered tho following ver dict: Ike deceased came to his death from a pistol shot ty his own hand. The following is tho evidence of H. W. Shaw and J. I. Bryint, who woro in tho room at the time the deed was committed: H. W. Shaw, sworn: Mr. Maxwell came into tho guard-house about 8 o’clock. I was up stairs at the tune. He came np stairs where witness was and ukedforapipo foil of tobacco. I told him that I hid none. Ho came down stairs and romainod about three minutes. Ho came baek and asked mo to loin him my pistol. I refused. Ho then went off indtemuned for about half an hour. When ho re®# hick I was still up stairs. He asked Mr. Bry ant some question, and Mr. Bryant's reply was, uillr. Shaw. Ho came ont and asked me to let him hive a piece of writing paper. I told him tbs: I hid none. Ho then turned and came hack into the office. I followed him. He was eitting at tho desk writing when I came in. Mr. Bryant remarked to him that tho guard-house was only for officials. Ho remarked that ho did not know that it was igiinst the rales. He then reached and picked np a Piatol and asked mo if it was a Colt’s. I told him it wia and to put it down. Ho thonputthe pistol to his head and said good-bye Donnie and Coot, and tred tho pistol at the same time. J. L. Bryant, sworn: The above testimony is correct as far as I know. This is tho second or third time ho had tried to kill himsolf. Money oould not have been the canso for he had just received or was about to receive a hrgo sum. The following is the note ho wrote before shoot- “K himself: “Dzah Camue : Have mo buried by my mother. Good-byo, darling; you aro the only woman I ever loved. 1 dio for yen. T. N. M.” Nztzb Said It. Tho editor of the Albany Nows Gets after one “Shrop.” for saying tho “credit of Macon merchants is tho best in tho United States,” in this column of the Telegraph and Messenger. “Shrop.” never said it, and at the time it appeared in this paper ho was in Eufanla. The credit of nearly ail tho Macon mershante is excellent and probably Improving daily; but tho enthusiastic gen tlemen who penned tho questionable paragraph will have to prove what he says, or, with tho editor of the Albany News, we must presume that he was writing for buncombe. h'EW Awnings.—Somo of the merchants doing business on Ponrtb street, in the Hollingsworth block, are preparing for the coming Summer and am patting np new and substantial awntogs in front aad over their doors. About half tho block front ing on Fourth street has been thu3 attended to, aad it is proposed, we bolieve, to extend the im provement and comfort from tho comer of Poplar to Plum stroets. And, while talking about the improvements being 'aado on Fourth street, we might mention the fact that the street workers have recently been doing tome veiy handsome ierric') on that thoroughfare from Poplar to away ont and beyond Oak street.— Hie holes have all been filled up, tho rough places “soothed down, and tho center of thestreot slightly r “sed and rounded off so as to turn the water when ■Crains. Those sporting fine stock will now find lourth street, from ths Brown House ont to Bas- tott’s Hill a nico place to take an airing and a drive. I'u3 Sandwich Islands Board of Immigration ■cave sent an agent to China to promote the im migration of Chinese to the Islands. A Disastrous Smash-tip on the Southwes tern Railroad. An accident of rather hug's dimensions oererred yesterday morningabont6O’clock, on the South we*- tern Railroad, in the Toheaofkee swamp, soma four or five miles south of thiB city, in which no leas than three freight trains wars involved and a Dumber of cirs literally demolished. It appears that the Colum bus freight*train, the first that leaves here in the morning on this road, ran off the track when abont four miles from the city-, caused either by a defective rail or rotten stringer, and after running some dis tance on the cross ties and road bed, the engine and several of the cars upset, leaving five dr: six ears standing on the road. Irrafew minutes after this train left the freight depot, the Enfaula freight train started ont. and, knowing nothing of the ac cident that had occurred to the Colnmbus train, it ran fall drive into the cars left standing on the road, bursting them wide open and smashing them to flinders. So were was two trains off the track and a number of cars demolished. And, ss if to cap the climax on ail tho railroad smash-nps that have oc curred in Georgia for the last decade, the Albany freight train followed cloEe in the wake of the En- fanlatrain, and, on reaching the point where the fire* train flew tho track, it, too, went off and abont half of it upset. So, here were three heavily freighted trains all off the track at the samo point, a number of cars knocked into a cocked hat, freight scattered and bursted, and, strange to say, nobody hurt. All three trains leave early in tho morning and within a few moments of each other, and the acci dent to the first occurring so near town, and at a point on the road where but a short distance ahead can be seen, it was next to impossible to avoid the accident which befell the second and third trains. As soon as those persons aboard those trains saw what had happened, some of them started hack to town on foot, and got here before tho regular mail and passenger trains for Eufanla and Colnmbus started ont, or they too would have probably Bhared the fate of the freight trains. When Superinten dent Powers heard what had occurred, he, Mr. H. P. Smith, Master of Transportation, and several other railroad men went down on the regular Enfaula passenger train to the scene of the wreck, and took aloDg the mails and passengers hound South, all of which were turned over to the Eufanla night freight and accommodation train, due here at 9:10 a. K., and which arrived just beyond the wreck in a few moments after the officials and passengers went down. So soon as this transfer of passengers and mails was made, tho Eufanla night train was re turned to that city on schedule time and hence passengers and mails went through on time. It is not often this ably conducted road furnishes our ever hungry maw with an item, in the way of an accident or smash-np. bnt when it does take a'hand, as in tho above instance, it gives ns a first class article. But, we hardly know whether to give the road any credit for this item or not; because new rails are being laid on the cross ties between here and Fort Valley, and the old stringers are being thrown aside; and If the accident had been delayed only a few days mer e, wo should never have had to mention it. Hence, although we have got a first rate item at the road’s expense, still we do not can didly and conscientiously believe it was the inten tion of tho road to furnish it, as efforts were in pro gress to prevent it. “Its an ill wind that blows no body good.’ Sale of Old Court-house and oi-rer Buildings —Mr. B. Turpin, as agent for the Central Rail road Company, sold at auction, yesterday forenoon, the old court-hoiiso and 24 other buildings of dif ferent dimensions and conditions, situated between Fifth and Sixth streets and along tho ally running from Walnut to Plum streets. Old Uncle Bob Clay ton, as usual, did the hallooing. The old court-honso building was knocked off to Mr. T. 0. Nisbet for $1,050. Before the ealo began, Mr. James Fitzpatrick read the following to the crowd: Georgia, Bibb County .-—Notice is hereby given to all persons interested, that tho legality of the origi nal Bale of the court-house, by tho Inferior Court to tho Central railroad company, will bo contested, and any person or persons purchasing Baid prop erty will taka tho samo subject to the lien which tho county of Bibb has on said property by reason of tho illegality of said sale. The document had no perceptible effect whatever and tho old court-house sold for every dollar it was worth, in our judgment. The work of removing it is to begin within ten days and bo vigorously prose cuted until finished. Tho other buildings sold were all frame houses, of different eizes and mostly old and dilapidated. They ranged in prico from $7 to $100. The terms of the sale were cash, and the build ings to be removed withing thirty days from date of sale. A Seating Rink.—It is understood that arrange ments have been completed for the establishment of a skating rink hero upon an estensive scale. For this purpose tho magnificent hall over tho car riage store of Jackson Deloach has been retained. It is tho finest private hall in tho city. Its present floor will bo removed and another constructed on the plan of those of ten-pin alleys. The roller skates will bo used. This invention obviates the necessity for ice in order to enjoy this healthy and exciting exercise. The company which has bought the right for Ma con will fit np tho Rink without regard to cost. It is their desire to mako it a place of resort for the most elegant society among us. Time will bo re quired to make the necessary alterations in the building and to complete tho extensiva preparations necessary. The Ecfacla Municipal Election.—A friend who came np from Enfaula yesterday, handed ns the names of the officers of that city, as elected on Monday last. They are as follows: G. A. Roberts, Mayor. A. A. Walker. Treasurer. T. D. Patterson, Marshall. T. L. Hardman, Clerk. Theee are all truo and good men and havo loDg held the respect and confidence of tho citizens of Enfaula. Whito men were elected Aldermen in all the wards except the 4th, in which two negroes were elected by illegal votes, and on this score they will probably bo thrown out. The race between Mr. Keils, the radical nominee, and Mr. Roberts was pretty close, as tho latter won by only abont 19 votes. Mayor b Court.—His Honor had a right lively little levee yesterday morning—nothing heavy, ft is true, bnt quite interesting to those who took a hand. The first caso called was against two of the fair and frail of tho city for getting drank and raising a muss, which disturbed the peace and quiet of their neighborhood, and offended the dignity of the law as administered by this court. It is only neenessary to state that the fair bnt frail pair went up for five dollars each. A case against a negro woman for steal r g a thim ble was continued. Green Hansom, negro, up for stealing, was fined $10 or guardhouse ton days.. Millie Hollis, a notorious black scamp who has been before this’ court a dozen times, was again brought np on a charge of disorderly conduct. She struck a snag this time in the shape of a twenty dollar fine, or thirty days in the guardhouse on bread and water. Crowded Out by tee Ladies.—-The ladies are, to-day, the best posted folks in Georgia. They know where ihe best of every thing is to be had. Yesterday was a beautiful day—old Sol was ont in all his glory. Ho drew on our consent—not on onr exchequer for that is low just now-land started for Riddle’s to havo onr picler tuck, but, alas! it was no go; bo was full—not Biddle, but his gallery—of ladies. Wo sidled around and looked at the pic tures, and across onr nose at the — well, we’re married—wo won’t say, but you may put a peg right here, that Riddle gets np pictures in better taste than any other man in our State by long odds. Tint remains of Mr. T. N. Maxwell, who killed himself on Monday night last at the Guardhouse, was hurried at Rose Hill cemetery, Tuesday after noon, by the Coroner cf the county. He was bur- riod in tho ‘*Straoger’s Bow,” and not beside his mother, as he requested in tho note he penned but a moment before ho fired tho fatal shot. Fortress Moneoe, March 2—Passed out, bng Endros, for Brunswick, Ga.; Schooner Gertie Lewis, for tho West Indies; brig harriet, from Mayaquoz, 8poke; passed out, bark 33# B.

February 28.—It is understood tint a majority of the Judiciary Committee will report that several irregularities did occur in organizing the present Legislature and that a reorganization will be necessary before the admission of the State. The action of Gen. Terry In unseating members is not fully sustained. The election of Blodgett will be declared illegal, as the present Legislature expires the presenty^ar and the new t Legislature haB tije authority io elect a Senator for tho time to which this Legislature elect ed Blodgett. No decision has yet been arrived at as to the claims of Hill and Millor, or those of the bayonet Senators. If the Committee declares the former entitled to seats, there will ha a big fight in the Senate over their credentials. The committee meets to-morrow and may come to & final conclusion. It looks now as though weeks would be consumed over Georgia, and Texas may come in before her. Bullock is at Ms old tricks, hut don’t seem to hold as many tramps as formerly. Washington, March 1.—Bryant laid before the members of both houses, to-day, a strong anti-Bnl- lockpamphlet, entitled “Laws of CongressiaRe lation to the Georgia Case.” The Bryant delegation are working vigorously and are hopeful as to the success of their mission. Powerful influences will he bronght to bear in the interest of Georgia, at the proper time. Her friends aro increasing, especially in the Senate- Conkling is expected to scarify Bullock when the Georgia question comes np. There are many conflicting reports in circulation regarding the Senatorabips. No decision has yet been reached "by the Judiciary Committee. In case of the rejection of Bradley, a strong ef fort will he made to induce the President to nomi nate Judge Caldwell, of Arkansas, for Supreme Judge for the Southern Circuit. Southern and Western Senators have taken a determined stand against tho appointment of a Northern man to the position. Washington, March 2.—Bullock read a printed pamphlet before the Judiciary Committee, princi pally devoted to the abuse of Caldwell, though reb els, traitors, ku-klux and anti-Bullockites generally are characteristically denounced. Bullock says he holds the Governorship at great pecuniary sacrifice to himself, and is ready to resign if by so doing he can further the formation of Republican govern ment in Georgia, but will not resign because of rebel fault finding and abuse. No remarks from tho Bryant delegation, or im portant verbal statement. The Judiciary Committee reported to the ' jate. The report details the manner of organization of the Provisional State Government, and states tho circumstances attending the organization or the House and the part taken by Harris. A statement has been made of tho action of General Terry, in directing the exclusion of certain persons from the Legislature until their cases should be favorably re ported upon by tho Military Commission ho orgar nized. Three members elect wero thus excluded and the admission of other persons delayed until they should be relieved from their political disabili ties. Upon this histoiy tho Committee is con strained to oay that, in its opinion, tho boforo mentioned action of tho military authorities is not authorized by law. Tho Legislature elected in Georgia was intended by Congress to take the place of tho Provisional Government as a permanent one; this seems perfectly clear, and tho eame view was taken by the General of tho Army, in Ms order to Gen. Meado of March 2,18C8. The correction of any misapprehension of tho act of Congress could bo made by Congress bnt not by the military. The action of the Hoaao in afterwards admitting persons who had been candidates against persons so excluded, bnt received only a minority of votes cast, is considered by tho committee a3 un warranted by law, and persons thus admitted were not lawfully entitled to seats in tho Legislature. Committee therefore, report that tho following pro ceedings of the organization of said Legislature were not warranted by law: first, in tho control and direction of its proceedings by Harris, second in ex clusion from taking oathB, and from their seats of members elect, who offered to swear in ; third, reseating of persons not having a majority of votes in tho election. In conclusion, tho committee stated that they felt justified in omitting to recommend further legislation on the subject. It is thought this report vitiates the election of Blodgett, Whitely and Farrow. Tho Georgia Bill will not como up in tho House till tho Indian appropriation bill is disposed of. _ Tlie Eurarela Municipal Election— The Democrats Nncccsi’ul. Special to the Telegraph and Messenger. Ettfaula, February 28-—The Democrats carried tho city election to-day. Roberts is elected Mayor. ’■ J. G. Guice. FROM WASHINGTON. Washington, February 28.—The Senate is discus- ing railroad matters.

It is rumored that Congressmen Golladay and Dewees have resigned. The Supremo Court, to-day, in the cotton cases appealed from the Court or Claims, took tho Presi dent's Proclamation of August 20th, I860, as tho date of tho termination of the war. This affects many cotton caacs and other litigation. Washington, February 28.—Bevenuo to-day, a trifle over $1,000,000; revenue this February nearly $2,000,000 over last.

They were not allowed the assistance of counsel or privi lege of summoning witnesses to their defense. They were all executed soon after their trial. Among them were two. Americans—namely, John Francis Sactnanda and Charles Dannary, a native of tlie United Stales. Revenue to-day $729,000. Tho Committee on printing commenced tho in vestigation of charges against the public printer, Clapp, i j..' . . * It is presumed in navy circles that some other vessel thin the Bombay struck the Oneida, and that both went down. Butler will pass the Georgia bill as soon as Indian appropriations are over; Bullock addressed the Senate Judiciary Commit tee this morning- The President, to-day, nominated Charles H. Lewis, of Virginia, Minister resident to Portugal. The Senate confirmed Hayne E. Hudson, Attor ney General for the western district of Tennessee; John Eaton, Jr., Tennessee Commissioner of Edu cation ; Aimestead Beawell, Attorney General for the Southern District of Mississippi; Wm. Hyatt, Receiver of public monies, New Orleans; Henry C. Myers, Register Land Office, Natechotoches. Charles H. Prince, Postmaster at August*, Georl gia; Heman F. Wilson, Consul at Matanzas, last Monday. CONGRESSIONAL Washington, February 28—Senate—The Fend ing hill was dtesoassd all day. ? Executive session adjourned. House.—Bills were introduced Exempting farm ers from taxes as produce brokets. Butler, of Massachusetts, introduced a joint res olution to collect wrecked and abandoned property, and reclaim dues belonging to the United States. The bill repealing the tax on pork packers, after a struggle, was referred to the Waje and Means Committee, after striking out the amendment re funding money already paid, i : • t ► -; . The following was adopted, 108 to 61: Resolved, That ths best interests of the oonntry require sufficient revenue from importers, and such tariff as will afford sufficient protection to our man ufacturers and industries of the oonntry. The reeignation of Deweea and Golladay was an nounced. The Indian Appropriations waa resumed. Beck introduced a bill extending the time for bonding whisky three years. No action. The House adjourned. Washington, March L — House—The whisky question is np. It will be allowed to remain in bond at an addition of one cent per gallon to tax ^TheSenito’a amendments to the postal route bill were adopted. Thd joint resolution introduced yesterday by Beck, extending to three years the time for keep ing distilled spirits in bond, came np. The ques tion being on Marshall’s smendmsut to Hooper’s substitution, reducing the amount to be paid after the first year from one, oent a gallon per month to a half cent. Marshall’s amendment waa rejected— yeaa 84, nays 86. Hooper’s substitute waa egreed to without division, requiring payment of on* cent a gallon for each month after the first year. Washburn, Of Mississippi, moved to lay tin bill on the table, being a bill to suspend the collection of revenue on whisky for the remainder of thb ad ministration. The bill was not laid on the lable. Yeas 62, nays 104. The bill, as amended, waa then passed without division.. John W. Dewees, having resigned, waa disposed of like WMttemore. A prolonged discussion with regard to the corrup tion investigation as regards past Congresses, ter minated without action. Callis, past member from Alabama, ~seems to be implicated. The Banking and Currency' Committee made a majority and minority report, which was not read. The House then adjourned. In executive session, the Senate confirpied Strong and discussed Bradley, hut finally adjourned with the understanding that tho vote be taken to morrow. Mr. Wilson introduced a bill for the better pb- servance of Sunday in military and naval institu tions. if. Lands to railroads, and the Funding bill wero dis cussed to adjournment. Washington, March 2.—Tho House is considering tho Little Rock railroad. In the House, discussing tho Indian Appropri ation bill, concerning treaties Butler said that since the passago of the Fifteenth Amendment, all wero unconstitutional and void. The disability bill Btill hangs in the Senate. Sumner is having ronered the motion to recon sider, which Mr. Wilson withdrew. Tha impression is strong that ths Scnato will confirm Bradley. Tho Senato being in executive session, on motion of 3Ir. Sumner, tho doom wero opened for a mo ment, and during this unopened open session of about a minute, ho entered a motion to reconsider tho votd on tho passago of the so-called omnibus disability bill, and that motion is still pending; tho motive assigned for this action is to reach the caso of ex-Senator Clingman, who was among those dis abled, and to bo relieved by the bill. Senate in executive session postponed till tbo 21st instant, the nomination of Bradley,as associate Justice of the Supreme Court, by a vote of SO against 26. This gives time for tho passago of a bill wMch will give Louisiana, Texas and Mississippi a Judge resident, within tho district. Kellogg took prominent part in defeating the confirmation. The Judiciary Committee's report states, in effect, that the Legislature of 1808 was legal; that tho Government then organized was permanent; that the recent reorganization of tho Legislature was unwarranted by law. First, in the control and di rection of its proceedings by Harris. Second, in the exclusion from taking the oath, and from seats, of three members elect, who offered to swear in. Third, in the seating of the persona not having a majority of the votes of tho election. The Committee feel justified in omiting to reo- ommend any further legislation. A resolution was introduced and laid over for fu ture consideration requiring tho President to com- municato whether any measures should be taken to suppress slave-trade on tho coast of Africa. The funding hill was discussed. Sumner deliv ered a long piinted spoeohdissentingfrom the views of the Finance Committee in regard to the nature of bond in which debt should bo funded. FOREIGN NEWS.

Later and more favorable dispatches have been received from the British authorities at Yokohama, in relation to the collision between the steamers Bombay and Oneida, the details, however, aro still meagre. Fifty-six of the officers and crew of tho Oneida were subsequently picked np by small boats of the Bombay. It is thought that others missing at last accounts would ultimately prove to havo es caped. The names of those saved or lost havo not been received, nor is it known precisely how many persons were on hoard tho ill fated vessel at the time of the calamity. Pams, March 1.—Notwithstanding tho announce ment that the Mardi Gras festivities would bo sup pressed by the police, ai this hour, 1 o’clock, the Fafax Boeuf Gras procession has just entered the courtyard of the Tnellories.

London, Match 2.—Fifty-six officers end crew of the Oneida ware picked up by the Bombay’s boats. Another account is dated, Yokohama, January 81, via San Francisco, March 2: The most terrible ac cident and horrible exhibition of inhumanity known in the East, occurred about twenty miles down the coast, at half past six o’clock, on the evening of January — The United States steamer Oneida, homeward bound, collided with the British Peninsu lar and Oriental iron mail steamer Bombay, Capt. Arthur Woolsby. Tho Bombay straok the Oneida on her Btarboard quarter, carrying away her poop deck and cutting off her wheel, stern and running one of her timbers entirely through the bows of the Bombay at the water line three times. The Oneida hailed the Bombay with “ship, ahoy I- stand by l Yoa’ve cut ns down!!' Blow her whistle—fired her guns—all of which the officers of Bombay say they did not hear, although the guns were distinct ly heard at the port twenty miles away. The Oneida went down stern foremast in about twenty fathoms of water, with £0 officers and 50 men. The Captain of 'the Bombay did not stop to rescue those on board; nor did he, upon his arrival here, report the accident or inform the authorities- The first known of the disaster was tho next morn ing, when Dr, Suddards, surgeon, with fifteen of the crew, arrived here on foot. Only two cutters were available; and the officers, almost' to a man, refused to take them, while.a man remained on board. •-*.

Since then the text of: his letter deotining the “use of hjs name” has been published. The following portion presents in a nutshell the precise point in the ease of Gen. Ames. No doubt Reynolds has thus taken the proper view of the law and the common sense and the decenoy involved in the matter: “I’have, to be sure,” he says, “re sided in the State, with trifling intervals, more than three years, but thw residence has been as an officer of the army, charged, in addition to the ordinary duties of my profession, with the reconstruction laws of Congress. Nothing bnt the existence of an unprecedented emergency could warrant the government in placing in the bands of a single individual the vast power en trusted by these Jaws to a district commander. I doubt whether a residence under Bueh condi tions constitutes an Inhabitant of the State in the sense in whioh this phrase is nsed in the Constitution of the United States.

Receipts for the week ending this evening, the above included, 516 bales; sales for the same time 982; shipments 1006 — showing a slight increase not worth mentioning, in both receipts and sales of laat week upon those of the week before. - The market since the date of onr last weekly re view has become completely demoralised. Ip fact, it spears to be in little leas than a paniqy condition. Prices for the last few days have fallen off with such startling rapidity as to almost produoe a con sternation among both buyers and sellers. In such a condition of the market it is a difficult matter to give quotations; bnt there is still some pluck left among onr buyers and they were still investing to day at 21 cents, np to the reception of the noon re ports from New York, when the demand slacked off and the market closed quiet at a decline of a J^c on the opening prices.
