We aeo by the Times that the municipal court last Wednesday, fined a negro fire dollars ‘‘for wing profane language in a pobllo place." If Mayor IIolT, of Macon, would only put on the fixe dollars for excry esse of “using profane language in poblio plaoes,” morals would im proxo or the dty be in funds—porbaps both. 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 dispatch from Washington, the 181b, says: Butler's campaign lo Massachusetts ia sng geatlng to toe people of that State the feasibili ty of reconciling themselves to s Democratic Governor, in ease Haller should win in the nom inating Convention. Prominent Republicans 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 gate*, and if Butler should then be nominated, to repudiate the nomination and puts third man in the field, elalming the latter as the regular 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- TOtUnent Qtas Omo Elxctiox.—An Ohio oorresoondont of the New York Tribune predicts with the 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!

How ft aflrblfiTAndcr Aiwnyed a Lofty FU/cbt, nnd Got a Dtnced Hard Fall ln> Mead. 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. Carl Sclinrs In NnsIivIIIc. 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. Non nml TtiPii. 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 Commencement XJUE GEORGIA PRESS.

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! Tiuvxij.rbs are loud in their praise of toe American House, Boston. Its baths, cafe, ele vator, and general unsurpassed management, have long rendered it a charmed resting place for these “knights of the road.” Tnx Hartford Times saye the Congressional Ku-klox committee is about to publish a sensa tional romance of over two thousand pages, which is said to oombine the styles of Miss Braddon and Sylvanus Cobb.
