Albant Adverliter: Harry J. Ryan, the insurance sharper, of whom promi nent mention is mode in another column, succeeded in making his escape from tho Sheriff of Mitchell county, lost night. Ryan wa3 bronght up to Camilla from Savannah yesterday morning, bat, on ac count of the absenoe of witnesses, bis trial wee postponed until Thursday next. There being no jail in Camilla, Sheriff DeGraffienreid started oaths accommoda tion train yesterday evening to bring-the prisoner to Albany for safe-keeping nmil the time arrived for hii trio). Ryan waa extremely jovial and tolka tive along the way, and appeared 'o be very little eonoerned about his oondition. Just after dork, and when the train was within about half a mils of the city, Ryan went into the water closet, dosing the door behind him. Mr DeGraffenreid went to the window nearest the oloeet and stuok hie head out, thinking that if hie prisoner attempted to esoape he would be in reaoh of him and oonld oatah hire. There’x where he made the mistake. Instead of jumping through tbe side window as Mr. DeGraffenried thought he wonld, in the event he undertook to ea- oape at all, Ryan raised the end window and drew him* If gently out on tbe plat form. After awhile the sheriff thought of the end window, and went to see about it, but the bird had flown. The train w&3 running at the rate of about eighteen milea an hour, and the sheriff leaped out into the dark only to turn a doable som ersault, and find himself completely be- wildered. He didn’t know whioh way to start, and could not have started very fast if he had. Sheriff DeGraffenreid, who is a faith ful and moat excellent officer, says he never was so badly sold out before in bis life.

She burden of the sermon was the levs of God for His creatures, as manifested in tbe gift of his own son to ransom it fallen world, and the duty and obligation ot all mankind to obey and serve their Creator. Bat ws took no notes, and do pot propose to give any outline whatever of tbe speaker’ argument. It is enough to say that it was eminently simple and conclusive. Thera is. ap-earnest piety, vigor and logical comprehensiveness abont the ut terances of Dr, Warren, occasionally rl- sing even into genuine eloquenoe, which oann.t fail to make a lasting impression npon the intelligent hearer. He feels that the man before him reflects in his own person and life the truth and reality of the precepts and maxims he so faith fully seeks to delineate, and is prepared to accept without questioning all that he sayv. This is the secret of his great pow er iu the pulpit, and the vast influence which Dr. Warren has ever exerted as a pastor upon every community in which he has officiated. The people arc won by his piety and gentleness,and convinced and subdued by tbe unmistakable zeal and earnestness this faithful ambassador of God. It a matter of sinoere congratulation to all trne believers that Dr. Warren, reaouno- iug the emoluments and commanding position of a numeroas and wealthy charge, has consented to respond to the appeals of those he onoe eerved so faith fully and loved so devotedly in his own native Georgia. By God’s blessing hiB return to Macoo, we trust, will bo signal ized by great good'to the entire comma' nity. The Doctor, in oloaing, alluded feel ingly to the lsst scenes iu the life ot the deceased, and announced that ha had sought and obtained the pardon and for giveness of his Father—God- “Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his,” After the ohoir had sung the soul stirring hymn “I would not live alway," the coffin was tenderly borne ont, and, under tne solemn escort of the Msaonio fraternity, followed by a long cavaloade of private carriages, taken to Rose Hill cemetery and there, with all the im posing rites and oeremonies of the order, oonsigned to its last resting place.

Mato* Huit.and isi Horn Subsidy to th* Noxth Gxoboia Stock Association.—It is currently reported that the subscription of Messrs. Huff A Brown, the proprietors of the Markham House, to the North Georgia Stock Asso ciation, was little less than black mail on the part of the managers of that concern. The firm had only been in operation a few days, and one of its members was the Mayor of Maoon and the champion of that city before the Btate Agricultural Convention, which met last spring In Hawkinsvitle, when the question of the location of the State Fair was being dis cussed. Mayor Huff denies the statement, how ever, end says the contribution of $250 by the proprietors or the Markham to the North Georgia Association, was purely a voluntary offering. Moreover, that had his partner and himself reflated a mo ment, they would not have givtna oent to continue tbo fair in Atlanta through •the present week. We Rive Mr. Huff the benefit of this’statement, bnt it i fu W‘latAi\Q<Ufi. -magi*, lemma,though as a quasi oitizsn of Atlan ta now doing business there, we would not have blamed him in tho toast had he given $10,000 to the Atlanta fair, pro vided he had stipulated that the amount should be expended for the furtherance of the normal exposition, which had been extensively advertised by circulars and in the press, to open on the 20th instant and close on the 25th. But it is stated by an Atlanta contemporary that the amount given was for the speoido pur pose of gstting up a race on Wednesday of this week, the very time appointed for the unveiling ot the Confederate monument, whioh has been erected at such infinite labor and pains by the la dies of the Memorial Association. We blame Mr. Huff for this, has been stated he headed a delegation to the Agricultural Con vention at Hawkin8viito, sent for the purpose of urging the claims of My^ n to tbe permanent location of tbo State Fair at Central City pork, and aw-mta have known that the continuation of tho Atlanta exhibition for another week must, If a success, operate disastrously to our city, and State Agricultural Associa tion, of whioh ho had been the accredited representative. Why did h9 not stipu late that the sum donated should bo devoted to tbe races whioh were to come off on Thursday, Friday and Saturday of last week? We have no desire to do Hr. Huff any injustice, and will gladly print any ex cuse he may bo able to render in the premises. The State Fair. A visit to Central City Park to-day, de pile tbe steadily falling rain, revealed a busy soene in every department. Aoontinuoos procession of drays and wagons, laden with contributions repre senting all tbe industrial interests of the common wealth,kept pouring in, and were quickly relieved of their oonte&ts by the erowd of experts who were engaged in classifying, arranging and ptoeing in po sition the numerous artistes. The spacious halls were rapidly filling np with choioe contributions from the field, garden, orchard, looms, machine shops, and mercantile guilds of the country. The stock pens, stables and poultry ocops on tho grounds were »l«o recsiving hourly additions, and already contained a larger display than was ever collected at any previous expos!- siou. Every thing points to a grand exhibition of tbe varied industries of tbe State, and if Providence will but vouchsafe propitious weather the num ber of visitors will be unprecedented. It is too early to partionlarize, but it ia ssfe to say that the present exhibition will be by far tbo most complete and extensive that ever illustrated Georgia. Loxdon, October 25.—Wm.
