We aeo by the Times that the municipal court
last Wednesday, fined a negro fire dollars ‘‘for

Columbus Ccttow It reruns.—Columbus up
to Wednesday night had receixed 576 bales
cotton since the 1st inatanL Beceipts for the
same time last year 2,712 bales.
Eutacli speaks of s tremendous rain last
Tuesday. Planters In that vicinity complain
that thdr cotton is sprouting in the boll.
Viossnuio arm Bausswrcs Ksilboxd.—The
Eafsala News says that thla road will be laid
far as Clayton, twenty miles beyond Eafaula, in
a few days. The News suggests a publio frolic
on the occasion.
The Seims Times says that the cotton crop
of 1871-72 will not exoeod two millions and
quarter of bales.
Louisiana Lxtxxs.—The New Orleans Times
of Wednesday sounds a loud alarm about the
condition of the levees, which are caving and
crumbling in s good many places. The groat
Bonnet Carre Crevasse is still open for a foil
half a mile. There ia a great breach on toe
New Orleans aide of the Metairie Bidgo which
will discharge water over the rear of the city.
The Loveo is eavlng west of Bston Kongo and
Point Conpoe, and in numerous other plaoes.
Amino in JfASSAcnusxnai—A Uepnbliean

Governor, in ease Haller should win in the nom

here say tost they would work for John Quincy
Adams in preference to Butler. Bat the plan
agreed upon by Butler’s Republican opponents
ia, first, to contest the seats of all Boiler dele

to repudiate the nomination and puts third man

nominee.
Human nAin Moos Valuable than Gold.—
The New York Sun saya a quantity of hair,
silky, ailvor gray, and thirty inches long, was
recently sold by John Thompson A Co., 441
Broadway, for $35 an ounce—nearly twice as
much as gold will bring! Messrs. Thompson
A Co.—toe largest dealers in the United States
in made up hair goods—have imported 6,000
pound* of hair sineo January, paying for it
$100,000, gold. They have at work on it 100
girl*, who earn from $111 lo $l8aw»«V, ua j,t
they find tha demand greater than the supply.
Hair baa advanced 25 per cent, in market
value, and ia likely to go up 25 per cent. Ali
which results from the silly, ungraoefnl and nn-
healthy fashion of piling on immense mssses
of false hair npon the human caput. Would
that our Southern ladies would declare their in
dependence of this ridiculous freak.
No Standard or Fashion.—The New York
correspondent of the Chicago Times says there
ia now no standard of fashion, and no prevail
ing style. Milliners and dress makers are al
most driven to desperation. Faria has lost its
prestige. The German fashion papers repeat
the same old styles and have not originality and
taste enongh to invent new ones. The rosult
to every ono to striking ont original lines, and
the season to showing such a variety in bonnets
and dresses, both as to style and material, as
nevor was known before.
Tni OottaoxbytuxSea.—Tho Chicago Times
gives the history of Grant’s Cottage by the Sea.
It was a mixed land and political speculation.
Two real estate speculators, both democrats,
gave toe land, and Thomas Murphy, John IToey
and John Ohamberlain built the house at a cost of
ten thousand dollars apiece, and supplied it
with wines, liquors and cigars of the most ap
proved brand*.. Murphy also bought a cottage
adjoining the President's, for Gen. Porter, the
President's private secretary, for twenty thou
sand dollars. Murphy, at that time, was a
Tammany offiee-holder, and was known as toe
•ole donor of this property. He got for it the
post of Collector of Customs in New York City,
although he was known to have voted for
Hoffman against Fenton for Governor of the
State. Hoey and Ohamberlain looked for their
reward in toe more legitimate channels of trade
and speculation. The establishment of the
“Summer Capital of the United States at Long
Branch," groatly enhanced the value of their
other property at that place, and Chamberlain,
who to heavy on cards and horse racing, reaped
indirect returns of immense value from tho in-

grestest confidence a Radical majority of ten to
sixteen thousand. Election on the 10th prox.
Tux horror stxioken Radicals who are groan
ing over Connolly's frauds in New York, re
mind the New Haven Begister of the story of
a gambler on a Mississippi river steamer. Watch
ing his opportunity, he slipped out four aces
and plaoed them on hi* knee under the table.
The man next to him discovered the trick, and
without being observed, took the sees and put a
very poor hand in their place. The dealer ex
changed hi* hand for what he supposed to be
his aces, and without looking to see, bet largely,
aod when ealled by his opponent found to his
utter astontohmont, that he had not even a
■ingle pair. “Gentlemen," said he, “I shall
play no longer. There is cheating aronnd this
board."
Thb Cautornia Elxchon.—The New Haven
Register has reoelved samples of the ballots
used in the tote election in California, and they
are a curiosity in their way. A copy of the
Republican ticket, printed in the *™.tu^ typo
east, in various oolors, aad impossible of alter
ation, is among the specimen*. These were
given to persons employed by the Government,
ana in the Navy Yard at Mare Island—with a
hint that their ptoeee were dependent upon tho
Toting of that ballot! The writer says “a
more oorrupt election was never held in any
State of this Union.” It to the Grant pro-

The Detroit Free Press gives a funny acoonnt
of a tote effort by one Fniger, a crack-brained
Michigander, to locomote per wings, instead of
in toe usual way. Fniger has spent lots of time
and money perfecting his wings, and toe other
dsy announced himself ready, and prodnoed
them for public inspection. They are described
ss seven feet long by three feet eight inches
wide, and shaped like those of an eagle. They
fastened under the arms, being held in ptooe
by cords running over the shoulders. They
weigh one and a fourth pounds each. On the
upper side of etch wing, just where the hands
oonld grasp them, a strip of stout robber was
fastened, and the flying was to be done by toe
man grasping these handles and working toe
wings up and down; the hands first pushing and
then pulling.
After everybody bad looked, admired, and
congratulated, Folger shook hands all round,
mounted the roof of the bouse whence he in
tended to soar, and modestly announced the
sun as his destination instead of a neighboring
dty as first intended.
Standing on the extremo end of the ridge,
just over abed of rank grass and tall weeds,
the “bird" seised toe wings firmly, threw ont a
quid of fine-cut, and took the leap. Exactly
what took ptooe cannot be described, as every
one was laughing so that his eyes refused to see;
but there was a jump, a flop, two or three keel-
overs, a rustling of silk, and toe audience saw
Mr. Fniger lying on his stomach on the ground,
the spreading wings making him a figure comic
beyond description. He was raised up, turned
over, and soon opened his eyes and wanted to
know what had occurred, and was soon leaning
against toe house and breathing bard. He
claimed that be lost his balance at toe critical
moment, or else he would have sailed away like
a Muscovy duck, but declined to repeat the
experiment again, saying that he didn't feel
well.
Instead of sympathizing the audience roarod,
and Fniger grew wroth and threatened to punch
somebody's head. But be soon cooled down
and says be will yet take a moonlight excursion
over their heads. We suggest that Mayor Huff
send for tho “bird” and give him a show at our
State Fair. If he doesn't “draw” like a house
a tiro, we will be greatly fooled.

Senator Sehnrz, of Missouri, addressed all
ahades and oolors in the capitol at Nashville on
Wednesday tost, and his speech appears in the
Nashville papers of Thursday evening, occupy,
tog about twelve oolumns. It is, for the most
part, a general review of toe situation resulting
from the war, and a defence of Radical Recon
struction as inevitable to the circumstances, and
not resulting from any hostility to too conquer
ed whites of tho South. He exoepts, of course,
in this defence, toe Kn-klux bill, which ho op
posed and denounced to the Sen*to.
Looking at toe immediate party situation, ho
denounces the Radical organization for its tyr
anny, setftsbness and corruption, and the Dem
ocratic party for its inability to comprehend and
adapt itself to the condition of the country. Ho
■ays a National Democratic triumph would be
the greatest of all miafortunea to the country,
but more especially to toe South herself. He
wants a third parly movement based on cordial
harmony with and acceptation of achieved re
sults, and a determination to maintain tho con
stitution as it stands and rebuke tyranny, mal
administration and corruption. He thinks the
tendency to this third party is breaking through
the akin of the body politio in all directions.
The tone of tho speech is dispassionate, states
manlike and dignifiod throughout—toe reasoning
extremely plausible—the statement of the North
ern side very ingenious and strong—and the
whole performance wearing an air of great can
dor, sincerity and patriotism. Sehnrz is evi
dently a man of mark and will leave a strong
impression behind him.

George Wilkes, who not only as a “horsey,"
but as an extremely “loyal" mac is a bosom
friend of toe Great American Present Taker,
stated to May, 1868, that be had a eon venation
with the G. A. P. T. aforesaid, in whioh, to
Wllkea' language -. “Of bis own accord the Gen
eral introdnoed toe subject of the single Presi
dential term, and not only declared himself in
favor of it, but expressed the opinion that the
passage of a constitutional amendment effecting
that reform it absolutely necessary to the preser
ration of our liberties."
What a change haa come over tho spirit of his
dreams sicoe then. Now, instead of nrging toe
adoption of a constitutional amendment to pre
vent his ro-eligibility, he is urging his re-elec
tion. He i3 willing to risk “our liberties" while
be can retain the loaves and fishes of office for
strictly family purposes.
Extremes Meet.
The Courier-Journal, of Wednesday, says that
Mr. Goorgo Harding, who was imported
Kentucky from Indiana some time ago by toe
Bourbons, and who has been for five or six
months the most malignant and abusive of the
extreme writers against the “New Departure'
in tost city, has gone back to Indianapolis to
edit the new evening organ of Governor Mor
ton just established in the capital of onr neigh
bor State.” Mr. Harding must be an “affinity"
of the Hon. B. H. H. Ho has fallen almost “as
fur and as heavy” as did toe author of “Notes
on toe Situation” when ho plumped into the
abyss of that Alumni address at Athens last

Stitrlllug Statements.
Tho Washington Patriot, speaking of the as
tounding defalcations of Major Hodge, of the
War Department (which were covered up by
false balances in bis reports) makes the follow
ing statement, which is what many have sus
pected might be the case :
Within tho last few weeks, the Comptroller
of tbe Treasury haa admitted, over his official
signature, that a million of notes have been
issued by the Treasurer of the United States,
without “any record of their denominations or
numbers." Who can tell how many more mil
lions have been put in circulation without re
cord? Tha statements of the public debts,
made by the Secretary of the Treasury and
the Treasurer, exhibit a discrepancy of one
hundred and ten millions of dollars. And it
is notorious here, that toe books of tbe
Register and the Secretary, cannot be balanced
by many millions. All attempts to reconcile
these differences have utterly failed, and the
Treasury statements are forced, false, and arbi
trary. We repeat, that investigation is demand
ed, for the protection of the holders of public
securities, and to check toe organized robbery,
by which rings of plandering officials and Rad
ical parties are daily enriching themselves at
the expense of an outraged and over-taxed
people. Heretofore, Congress haa obstinately
refused to permit any form of inquiry, or any
fair examination of the books of the Treasury
by competent experts. If after these alarming
disclosures, a partisan majority should continue
to elose the doors against proper scrutiny, there
can be but one conclusion in the public mind."
Gronuii Gold—Mr. Butts, of this city, re
ceived yesterday a letter from a gentleman in
Lumpkin county, which stated that a pleoe of
quartz rock bad been picked up in that county
weighing sixty-eight pounds, and was found to
contain 500 pennyweights of gold!
