It is a greater importance to the city ■*° f first supposed. Indeed, after exam- S*** think it indispensable. 'M V, nes tion is, wiU the city authorities * WOI t as they have contracted, at tho ike «P tb ® line where tho county officers •*' 6 ° en d finish tho grading to the head ^ r eet? It is bnt a comparatively 1 ^ »nd could bo disposed of, we learn, I Sift* )<**• ^eeks, by oontnet Paitatko the county portion of the road will p rtCr * work at 20 cents per yard, and l^—waible time on the city for payi—It. r * ITind truly, that the city has no money rt mch work, and that it will have to be r bt v e street force. At present, the city I**/, ( or money, bnt we are assured that it I* i (reive months’ time on this job. Again, I , 4 t force is now engaged upon even a I ilortant work than this-the grading of Grounds and ma kl n g absolutely indis- r ble repairs upon the streets. Consequent- K force is altogether unavailable to com- Ills the work in question, in anything like a lilnible time, if ever. We hope, therefore, |!*T 9 City Council at its next meeting will |y out the job on the best terns, or to the con- Imctors who have so admirably executed the "maty portion of it They are personally in- I crested in completing the road, and will do the L'oik on more reasonable terms than anybody 1 ^ we repeat, then, give them the job, and I , e believe nine-tenths of our citizens will cheer- endorse the act The road ought to be ;. f l l by the time of the State Fair, and by L flan it will be eadly accomplished. jtisspomnos to the Great State Fair.— Hoff has effected arrangements whereby I uvbcdy and everybody within the broad do- I ain of this, the greatest country on the planet, I -uy attend the great State Fair in this city to te held on the 23 J of October next, for half : iu, both for freight and passage. In other I rorli, tiansportation for visitors and articles !x nhibition will be furnished at the usual niwtotho Fair, and after It closes all persons id utides will be furnished free transporta- j tioo Uek home. This arrangement extends | 'ran Boston to Galveston and from St Paul | toSmnsah. Tlii liberal arrangement will secure, donbt- fes, u immense throng of visitors daring the Fiir, ind tend greatly to enlarge the entries of iitieiMisdincrease the interest in the exhibi tion. It will be one of the grandest demons! ra tion! of science, agriculture and art ever made iathe South, and the extensive preparations being made for it, proves that Mayor Hnff will be equal to the emergency. He is, to-day, the liwat man in Georgia, and we predict that after tie Fait, and the hosts of visitors have returned tMlrit homes, his fame will become national Tie alter cements being made in the city for tie entertainment of the vast crowd are numer oos and on a grand scale. Every vacant room in the city is being secured and furnished for the reception of visitors by onr hotel and res taurant proprietors, and private residences ere being pot in order to assist in this important matter. There must not, nor will there be any complaint on this subject, as was the case in 150. Besides, the Fair Grounds are within a half mile of the heart of the city, and there can be no complaint as to transportation thither, teeease the street cars will be running to and from tho grounds every five minutes in the day, ud if a visitor does not desire to ride, he can valk from any of the hotels to the grounds in- ado of ten minntes. We, therefore, bid every body come, and bring with them whatever thing of interest they may have for exhibition, in the nsnrance that they will be well and hospitably received, and that the visit will be one of inter- (itand benefit to them. The programme of tie Fair appears in onr advertising columns this morning. AMiosmoEsr Thoroughfare. —In an article yesterday on the subject of the extension of Second street, straight out over Troup Hill to tie Houston road, we had not the time or space to allnde to the great advantages and conveni ence of the work to the people of the southern portion of the county, or to apeak of this end the line. Shonld the road, now finished to tie corporation line, be brought on to the head of Second street, (and the faith of the city is pledged to the work,) it will strike the level of tie street which extends through the heart of tie city and directly by the Court-house to the tirer bank. Then we shall have from the Hons ton road to the river a beautiful street, two ttiles in length. Suppose, then, that we bridge tie river at the foot of Second street, and ex tend it on the other side to the Clinton road, *onld it not be one of the most magnificent thoroughfares in the South ? Would it not be rutly advantageous to onr Second and Third street merchants and business men, and to the wVa* city at large, to say nothing of the great convenience it would be to our friends and C( >glbors in Houston and Jones counties, when bringing their produce to market? Indeed vaoid be a grand thing. The distance from the Houston road, on tiraigbt through Second street to the Clinton foad beyond the river, is a distance of about three miles, one third of which, from the river link to the foot of TronpHill, is almost a dead level, and will require no grading. From the foot of the hill to tho city line, the point at *hich the connty stopped work, is a distance of only about 400 yards, and when this short ipace is graded, we have two-thirds of the splen did thronghfare completed, or that portion of it Ictween the Houston road and the river. As *« stated yesterday, this much of the work is indispensable, and the City Council, it is earn hoped, will, at it next meeting, order the Rinding of the 400 yards of the street above al- JJded to. It will cost bnt very little to grade •his much of the road, and we are snro onr citi- will cheerfully endorse any action the tonncil may take, with a view to having it done immediately. As to tho bridging of the river, JJJ? extending the street on the north to the Umion road, vje fear that we shall feel age Weeping upon us before we see it; bnt it will I* dono at some distant day, as snre as gun is And then we shall see beautiful family nsiuencea for our merchants and citizens gen *"%, rising as if by magic, upon the many ell (polo and handsome building sites on the ridge, JU3t beyond the river.

O. McCormick entered Dr. "Wright’s drug store on Fourth street, and in a cool, business-like way called for a three oz. vial of laudanum. It was handed to him by Mr. Danfortb, the druggist. McCormick then remarked that he wanted it weighed, and after drawing the stopper of the vial, be picked up a glass gradaate silting on the counter and poured the contents of the vial into it. Having done this, he approached a pair of scales sitting on the counter, ostensibly to weigh the drug, bnt so soon as he got the scales between himself and Mr. Danforth, who was on the inside of the counter, he placed the graduate to his lips and began to drink the deadly poison. Mr. Danforth, noticing this movement, quickly reached across the counter and knocked the graduate out of McCormick’s hand, bnt not before he had swallowed about two onnees of the landannm. The man was immediately taken to the office of the city phy sician, Dr. Holmes, and was given copious draughts of warm water and sulphate of zine, which soon produced vomiting. The patient was also kept upon his feet and walked about the yard, to prevent his going to sleep, and at this writing (7, p. it.,) hopes are entertained that he will recover. No canse was assigned by Mr. C. for the rash act, other than that he was once a gentleman and had money, bnt that now he was penniles and worthless."

Money Tight.—The late and slow movement of tho present cotton crop has produced a strin gency in the money market, and a scarcity of currency in thi3 section, nneqnaled within the last three years. We were informed yesterday that it is almost impossible to borrow money in anything like large amounts from the banks— not even on such unquestionable security as Central Railroad bonds and at the highest rates of interest As yet, there has been no cotton sold here worth mentioning, the present season and hence there is an unosual scarcity of morey, that is being felt most sensibly in com mercial circles. The preesnre cannot exist mneb longer, if the present beantifnl weather for cotton-picking continues; for just so soon as what little that has been made is thrown upon the market, the money current will begin to flow back upon ns from the eastern markets, in which direction the stream flows annually be tween the first of April and September. Livelier.—For the first time since the cyclone of three weeks ago, our streets presented a lively and business-like appearance yesterday. Quite a number of wagons from the surrounding country came to town with cotton, and left in the afternoon loaded heavily with provisions and plantation supplies. So many of the conntry road bridges were swept away by the late freshet, that it is still a difficult matter for wag ons to reach the city from any considerable dis tance, and until they can do so trade will move heavily along. Shonld the present clear acd beantifnl weather continue a few days longer the wanted activity and business life of tho city will return, and the heavy monetary pressure now embarrassing trade will be removed. FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL. Weekly Review of the Market. OFFICE TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER,! September 27—Evening, 1871. J Cotton.—Receipt* to-day 183 balee; sales 127; shipped 116.

The market had been quiet and dull with a down ward tendency in prices, during the week under re view until this morning, when the telegrams an nounced the New York market as opening firm, which inspired onr buyers with confidence, and they went in briskly at 17% for Liverpool middlings. Thronghont the day all offered at those figures was freely taken—fancy cotton commanding a fraction more. The market closed strong at 17% with an upward tendency. kaoon cotton statement.

Dr. Seabrook’s Infant Soothing Syrup Money has been extremely tight dating tbs last week, and the banks have refused paper of the most unquestionable character for wont of funds. Money has, therefore, been very scarce, and is still eo; nor will relief be obtained until tho cotton crop comes forward more rapidly and is thrown upon the mar ket. The stock and bond market is almost dead still, as there is little or no idle money in anybody's hands here to invest in this class of securities.

Kimball House.—It was rumored here on the streets yesterday morning that the Kimball House, in Atlanta, bad been closed. Upon in anity, in the afternoon, of a gentleman just down from Atlanta, we learned that there was not one word of troth in the report and no grounds for it. He stated also that Mr. H. I. Kimball had succeeded in negotiating all his State bonds in Liverpool, and would return within the next week or ten days. The writer is one -t those who will not believe that Kim ball has “busted” until the proof of it is pro duced. Big Luck.—We were informed yesterday by a gentleman just arrived from Augusta,that Mr. Jno. Kenney, merenant tailor of that city, bad drawn a $50,000 gold prize in the Royal Ha vana Lottery. Wo congralulato Kennoy and hope no will now show the world that he knows how to handle gold as well as he handled his “goose.” Mrs. Spratt, an Illinois woman, has made the following speech: “Yes, gentlemen, this is a productive country. Anything in the line of tho animal or vegetable kingdom here beats the world. I have made 460 pounds of bntter from five cows in one year; and, as you refer to my children, I am prond to say that I have had twenty-six; and that man there (pointing to her husband) is the father of every blessed one." qniet and firm. „ , Stocks steady, Gold 14^.

It falls to the lot of bnt few ladies of no more years than the subject of this notice to be so universally esteemed, as was plainly demon strated by the large concourse of friends in sor row with her day and night during her last ill ness, ever ready to administer to her wants and necessities. Bat this was only natural, as she possessed all the attributes to make her a friend, sister, daughter and a faithful, kind and true wife. We frankly acknowledge her loss will be seriously felt by her friends, neighbors, sisters, brothers and parents, but above all by her de voted husband. Yea, the loss is irreparable. But we shonld be consoled when we were as sured by her last words that her personal worthy social and intellectual endowments, were only external portions of the temple of tho heart, in which she cherished many Christian graces. She prayed to die that she might see the face of her Saviour. With these words of Christian consolation, may the ones nearest and dearest the one who has paid the great debt and gone the way of all the earth, so live that when their tabernacles of clay are dissolved they, too, may join her in “that house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.” Friend.

A great number of persons, among them many of onr beat engineers, have called to eee it. Tbe universal testimony is that it is superior to any engine ever before brought to this city.

It keeps in perfect order without any trouble, and is so Bimpie and easily managed that anybody can ran it. lt is also very economical, requiring but little more fuel than a small family oooUsg stove. Altogether it excels any engine we ever saw, and we cordially commend it, with the fullest confidence of its giving satisfaction.
