The weather remains sensibly unchanged west •of tho Missouri. The area of tho lowest barom eter has moved from Canada eastward, and ex tended this afternoon suddenly southward to the Chesapeake Bay. The barometer has risen slightly on the upper Lakes and in the south west. Tho temperature has fallen on Lakes Erie and Ontario, and less so westward to Illi nois and Wisconsin. The area of rainy and threatening weather has advanced from OMo and Tennessee to the Middle and Eastern States. Fresh southerly winds are now reported from the latter coast. Northwesterly winds pre vail from Like Ontario to lake Superior, and southwards to Tennessee. Probabilities: The rain will probably cease to-night on the Atlantic coast and be followed by brisk sontherly winds. PartiaUy cloudy and clear weather, with west erly winds, is probable for Thursday from New York to the Mississippi River and the Gulf. . Sauday-Scliool Celebration. Howabd, May 20, 1871. The assemblage at this place was immensely large. In a few minutes the eyes of all were directed to horses, wagon and Talbatton band, with all their paraphanalio. The step of the old, as well as the young, became elastic, tho mind animated and cheered by the melodious music. The indications wero very flattering for a Sabbath-school celebration. The Howard and Daviston schools were formed in procession by the Hon. Wm. D. Grace, who paraded the ground with his sash as one in authority and looked very much like marshal of tho day. He dexteriously marched them around to the church with music. All being seated in church services were opened with singing by Howard oohool, “We come with soDg to greet you.” Re sponse by Daviston school, “Shall we gather at the river ?” Salutatory address from Howard school by Mr. D. Robert Braun, short yet pointed in its nature. Mr. Ed. L. Bacon, of the Daviston school, then addressed us .upon the beauty of holiness and the advantages of the Bible. Bong by the Howard school, “Thank God for the Bible.” Prayer by Dr. Searcy. Song by tho Daviston school, “Hosannah.” Speech by Master Dennio Lockhart, of the Daviston school and Master Frank Bacon, of the Howard school. They oonferred all honor upon themselves.— Music by the band. Address by D. N. Baldwin, fanciful and extravagant. Music. Address by Rev. Jos. T. Adams, on self culture, in wMch he fearfully depicted the necessity and lack of it. He was hoarse freon a Cold, consequently did not enlarge as he intended. Song by the Howard school, “Sweet land of rest” Eene- diction by Rev S. E. Weaver. The Marshal again formed the school into procession and marched to the dinner table, wMch was 140 feet ia length, fairly groaning under its mammoth weight of luxuries, from baked shoat and com bread to pies and cakes, eta, that would satiate the appetites of the most fastidious. All passed off quietly.. After au in- termisiion of two hours the sohools again assem bled in the chnreb, and listened to addresses from the Rev. S. B. Weaver and the Bev. Dr. Searcy, both able and well delivered.— Voeal and instrumental music then reigned supreme. We are indebted to Mr. E. S. Grace for lemonade. We will not forget a little song from the Antioch school, “The Young Abstainer.” It was the best celebration that has ever been in Middle Georgia, there being four or five hundred persons present, .Recollect thi3 sprang from a place termed by one or more, some two or three years ago, as a heathen country. Bathond. Tlie Cotton Tax or ISOS, 1S06 and 1867. The Legislature of Mississippi, in response to a timely and argumentative message of Governor Aloorn, recommending the measure, have adopted a series of resolntions memorial izing Congress to pass a law refunding to the people of the cotton growing States the amount of taxe3 collected on cotton daring the years 1865, 18CG and 1867. Says Gov. Al corn: “ With all the other prodnsts of the national agriculture tintaxed, the tax on the product of the section lately in rebellion was, in its char acter, penal. With the thriving industry of the land3 free from any direct burdens of taxation the levy of that direct burden on the crippled industry of the South bore all the outward seem ing of a oonquoror’s oppression.” * * * * “And reparation for tho wrong done the State of Mississippi and other States of the South by the cotton tax, may be made at thi3 time with the fullest measure of political conciliation. Tho Supreme Oourt of the United States stands evenly divided as to the right right of Congress to levy the tax, and with an invidious and op pressive law placed thus in a doubtful position on the very verge of constitutional authority, the reparation may ba taken wisely from the attitude of a surrender to right to that of a con cession of fraternal feeling.” We havo no doubt that every Southern Legis lature will concur in memorializing Congress for the same object, but we are not half a3 san guine as Gov. Alcorn seems to be that the Re publican majority will acquiese in the expedien cy and justics of “promoting the national har mony’’by repairing this great wrong and “re funding to the struggling cotton industry of the South every dollar taken from its sore need under that great mistake, the cotton tax of 1865, ’66 and '67. It is right and proper to make the attempt, however, were it.-only to test the value of the professions of magnanimity and kindly feelings of wMch some leading Republicans have been so lavish of late towards the suffering people of the South.—2Y. O. Bulletin. Spobt Dueixg the Fai3.—Tho Macon Boat Clubs ore going to have some sport and a con test of muscle during the afternoon of Satur day, 17th inst, the day of the County Fair. There is to be at least one boat race and a tnb race, for th9 latter of wMch several entries have already been made. As tMs is tho first pnblic demonstration of the “Mosquito Fleet,” we d3re say it will draw out au immense crowd on the river banks to witness it. The tub race will, doubtless, be a rich affair, as it is con fidently belived the best man will win, and the devil take the hindmost. Bagou, Cobu aud Hat.—Mr. W. A. Huff Is now selling bacon, corn and hay at lower prices than those at wMch any man can buy them in Central Georgia. TMnk of it! Bacon clear rib sides at 9J and shoulders at 7J, deliverable now or witMn the next ten days, as the purchaser may elect- He has also on hand 23 carloads of prime white corn, and 500 bales of hay, which ha is offering at lower figures than anybody. Now is the time to purchase, as it is certain these articles ccanot stay long at their present law prices. Corrou.—The liveliest topio of discussion yesterday, wa3 the extraordinary advances in the price of cotton. Within the last two weeks it has bounded up in tM3 market fall 5 cents per pound, and the indications are good that it will go higher still. Ono pound of cotton will now buy two pounds of bacon, a thing alto gether unprecedented in tMs market. The misfortune is, however, that there is little or no cotton in the hands of planters, and but lit tle in onr warehouses, and what is still worse, tho weather seem3 to bo adverse, this season, to the growth of the staple. Evebx one 13 predicting a very sickly Eea3on tMs summer and fall and we h3ve.reason to be lieve their predictions will come true, and every family should lay in a supply of pure medicines, such as ■quinine, morphine, calomel, laudanum, paregoric, camphor, etc. The best and cheapest place to buy them is the old wooden drug store on the eomer. A hint to the wise is said to be sufficient. Buy some Simmons’ Liver Regula tor, the great Southern remedy. • Look Oct.—Mayor Huff has decided, that it is the duty of tenants to keep their premises cleanly and abate all nuisances on them when they arise, or are so instructed to do by the health officers, and thatitis also-the duty of landlords to keep their premises in repair. So there is, we are glad to kn.ow, no eseape for either landlord or tenant to dodge this impor tant dnty, or shrink responsibility for nuisances. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL Active Exebcibe.—The local of tba Atlanta Era, went to a bail the otbeir night, and danced “spang out” of Ms clothes, end in next morn ing’s paper, he advertiscs for a shoo-fl? and par- 1 were from the c per collar. . ; fl.R e• ‘ Weekly Review of tbe Market.

Fisk Peaches.—We saw yesterday at the fan cy and' family grocery store of the Walker Brothers, on Cherry street, a; lot of the largest and finest peaches that have been exposed for sale in thi3 market the present season. They were from the orchard of Mr. Samuel Gove, in The Princess Pauline do Metteraich, who now lives at the capital of Austria, devotee her whole time and energy to collecting funds for the relief of the suffering French. Early one morr- ing she sent one of her footmen with the list of contributions to Mr. O , a wealthy banker, who at th9 time was yet in bed. Tbe list is presented to the nabob on a silver tray. He looks at it and hands it back, yawning and say ing : “Oh, if tho Princess herself had come, I should have.subscribed five thousand florins.” Early on the following morning the banker was awakened again, and a closely veiled lady was ushered into his presence. She removed her veil, and the astonished banker saw that this fair visitor was no other than tho Princess de Metternicb. “You told my servant yesterday,” she said to Mm, “you would subscribe five thou sand florins if I would call on yon myself. Here I am, and here is the list” There was no help for it. The banker had to subscribe the sum, and the Princess left rejoicing. • / Hole and Coeneb Wobk.—Now is the time to attack the rats, mice, bedbugs and roaches in every corner.

Died, on the 7th of May, after a very brief Pluees, Geoboe Woes, infant son of Alfrod and Mary Rid dle, aged seven months and twenty-six days. Thus are we taught how transient, bow fleeting are all earthly joys and blessings; bow earthly hopes may be blasted; onr fondest and tenderest ties rent asunder and dearest idols shattered and brightest flowers withered in a few brief hours* Dear friends, though your home is made deso late and your hearts bereaved, do not mourn at the dispensation of an AUwise Providence in thus removing your loved little ono—yonr household angel. It did not come to stay: bat like birds of passage it only pinacd for aTirief period, to reBt, as it were, before winging its way to a moro genial clime. 1N3IEHORIA3L Died, ia Athens, Ga., on Tuesday morning, May SO, 1871, from congestion of the brain, Wilson Lumpkin, son of John A. end Lucy Cobb, aged five years. . . Thus with the bright, beautiful flowers of May, little Wilson, blighter and moro beautiful than they, has gone. He closed his eyes in tho arms of his loving mother, opened them with wondering delight upon the glories of Heaven, and now nestles loving ly in the bosom of Him who said, “Suffer little children to come unto me.” L.
