CITY AFFAIRS. THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 7, 187S. Fmitoi — Mewr*. J. W. Barke A Co. have onr thaLkii for a copy of Peterson's Magtzine for Septe mber. Tbs Atlanta Gonatitntion can bn had every mori.icg at the stores of Messrs. Brown A Oo., and V «iger A Go's. Niw Butldtso—A large brick carriage boose, tor lb'* 090 of Ueafb A Porter, is being built adjoining their stable on Poplar street. It will greatly enlarge their business facilities. Weatheris!!—All fdgns of drouth disappeared about three o'clock Wednesday afternoon, and Rince then there has been such an ontponring of rain as does not oocnr about this time every Anguit. A Fioht.—A oonple of saffron-oolored roughs had a fisband-sknll fight on the avenne last night. A policeman approached and they fled. No caae for the Mayor. Srjvaircfz.—A few stray glints of snnahine flickered down about three o'clock yesterday afternoon, bnt they found the earth bo wet and muddy that they went back again as soon as possible. OrrroBTHr Xobtb.— Mr. 8. O. Dobbs, of the firm of Walker A Dobbs, will leave for New York this morning and promises to uhip to Ma con, at an early day, a stock of goods in hta line that will astonish the natives. Amos; other things will bo the gas fixtures for the new Masonic temple. 8Lima r.—-The heavy rains of tbo past two days appear to havo made the sidewalks very sleek. A gentleman measured his length upon one of them yesterday. He is about the only man in the city who oonld have reoelved such fall and gather up withont an exclamation of some kind or other. Cnxnrr to Whom Gain it is Du*.—In onr no- tloe of the presentation of a testimonial to Mr. Horaoe P. Glark, late of the MACon and West ern railroad, at Atlanta, we returned thanks Mr. E. IL Knight for tbo information. We got the name wrong. It nhoald hare been H. A. Knight, and tho latter gentleman will please accept onr thanks. Tin Btbkzt Kaxlboad.—Wo are requested elate that, owing to changes that are being made in tho street railroad track at the Gity Hall, for the next few days, bnt a single car will ran on each of tho Tatnall Square and Oollege Hill lines. This arrangement will last only un til the rearrangement of the track shall be com pleted, which will bo in a few days. Stab Gjzino.—A white man was seen lost evening lying flat npon his back in front of the passenger depot, gazing intently up into the heavens as thongh some remarkable astronomi cal phenomenon were about to take place. If he were looking for stats, his sight wai soon gratified, for ono approached him—on a police man's coat—and be qaietly discontinued his meditations to resamo them in the barracks. An Elopement.—As tho Southwestern train passed Powersville yesterday, a communica tion was banded to somo one on tho train giving the information that there was an eloping party on board. The female party to the elopement was tho wife of a man living in Chat neighbor hood ; bnt her husband and tho balance of tbo neighborhood seem to be somewhat relieved that they havo concluded to "woodbine" to gether. ^ CuTTUfo Aftbat.—It was reported on the Jtreots last night that a difficulty had occurred between Mr. John GHos, tho woll known rail road conductor, and a man named Whalen, and what Mr. Giles had boon severely cut. The it (fair is said to have occurred at Giles' store, out boyond Windsor Hill. Intelligent of it .reached ua at too late an hour for ns to attempt to gather any particulars. Wo hope Mr. Giles :ls not seriously lojared, as ho is too clever man to be laid up in any such way. Latch.—'We learn that Mr. Gilos reooived "three severo cuts in the abdomen and one in nhe shoulder; also, that Whalen is fireman on Giles' train. WMtlnf Tbclr Mnslc on tho Desert Air. A few evoniDgs ago a band cf amateur ac- oordeoneerB (all accordeouoers are amateurs) vent to the residence of the author of this col umn, and for half an hour produced all the dis cord that half a dozen aocordeons very poorly played oonld produce. Had all the mechanics in town gono thither to file their Baws, the dis »ord oonld not have been any harsher than it was. Tho alnless air was never before pnt to imch base nses, or mado to utter so much wick edness. But alas, for tho fun of tho musicians! The house was tenantloss and lonely. Not an ear was there to bo pained by the inexpressibly dul* and stupid sounds, and the party for whom the i«ronade was intended, was sitting quietly at Ida desk, writing paragraphs for tho next day papor. We wonld probably never had any knowledge <if this compliment had not one of the partiol jtanls, who thought he had the best kind of joke on ns, approached ns yesterday to ascer tain bow we appreciated it. That was our first information upon the subjeot. Morpheas had been*kind to the neighbors and put them all to sleep before tho jirring discord murdered (he RtUloesa of the air. There has not been a mos quito on the premises since that night. Another Excursion. Hsd a myriad of hungry Bengal tigers and a awarm of oatamounts been turned loose in Ma con last night, the noise could not have been any more terrific than it wat when the train on the Oentral Railroad arrived with a party of negro excursionists. The colored people of Maoon were advised of their coming, and •warmed around tho passenger depot until the darkness became so thick that it might have been bottled np and sold for Tyrian dye. The excursion consisted of tho Savannah Lincoln Light Infantry, all spick and span in flashy uniforms, and armed with any amount of drams, fifes, flags and other implements of war and eonfnsion worse confounded. There was a yell when the train eamo in, a prolonged yell as the shadowy soldiers disembarked, and then a prolonged yell that lasted until after midnight, and perhaps an hoar or two later. The city hes not been in such confusion since the last campaign. • The oompany, after leaving the train, marched to Tnird street, where a welcoming address was mado by Jeff Long, in the highest style of cotton-field patois. Jeff is an innooent sort of a fellow, but he docs murder the English awfully. After the speech tho crowd of darkies squan dered themselves about the street, and managed to keep on the pad most of the night. A Charleston company was to havo come up with this Savannah company, and did come as far as Savannah; bnt unfortunately, for the success of the excursion, the treasurer ab sconded with all the funds, and the company bad to exeurt back to Charleston as best they oould. It is a sad deprivation to be debarred the pres- enoe of some of Governor Scott's subjects, but we will buckle onr Teats tolerable tight and en- dsavor to eurrire the catastrophe. A 9IAKT ACCIDENT. A BUMrway Falls sad Harts Several Se- •rroeo. After Jeff Long tad oonclnded his address of weloome to the Savannah military company, last night, the whole crowd started npthe stair way In the alley between Cherry and Poplar streets, loading np to the negro dance bonse around there. They crowded np like sheep go ing into a pen, overtaxed the strength of the stairway and it gave way beneath the pressnre and fell, with a crash, startling the negroes un til they grew pole as the pale moonshine. Tbs wonder is that some of them were not killed. The casualties, as far as ve were able to aeoarUic, were as follows: One boy severely injured in the side. (He had to be carried away end was at first reported dead.) One boy's arm broken; another with bis shoulder dialooated, end a Urge number of them more or leas bat tered and bruised. Jeff Long was on the steps et the time, and ie said to have been thrown entirely across the alley, his bead striking a brick wall It is not known whether or not the veil was seriously damaged. -—^rl *1# The Coant j Cwart. Judge Weems bed rather e busy day of it yesterday, several oases being np for adjudi cation. Capt N. D. Sneed, of the Linkhorn Guards, and delivery oierk in the poet office, was ap for carrying concealed weapons. The oas* was not made out and the oharge waa dismissed. Chtrle? Augustas and Lmra .leeks were np for interloaive conduct. The case was not made out. Weeley E chords and Agnes ltegers were s!ho op for interlusive conduct. The hero of this little romance was fined fifty dollars and costs, aud the heroine, in consideration of certain cir cumstances, was fined only one dollar. Bichards proposed an arreet of judgment by means of marriage; bnt it was revealed that be already had one wife in the city, and that, in the judg ment of the oonrt was about as mnch as he oonld properly attend to. Falling in this be paid his fine and departed. The boys who robbed Brown A Oo. and Ha vens were np for a preliminary examination. Goa Roberta was brought np with them as ac cessory. The testimony in the case did not differ materially from the report given in this paper yesterday morning. The cane was not concluded, aa the attorneys for the defense de sire to make argument upon the grade of crime of which the boys are guilty. The court claimed that the charge of burglary in the night was made out, while the counsel contend that the grade of crime waa not above larceny from the house. The former is a capital crime, and not bailable. The boy Gas Roberts, who is not deeply im plicated in these crimes, will probably lorn State's evidence. If he does there will be no difficulty in making oat the charge of burglary so plainly that there oonld be no donbt about It Gns aaya Haven's bar room was entered with a key which nnlocked one of the doors. The boys were asked why they did not make a larger hanl at Havens.' They said they drank the wine which they stole, and drank some beer also, and got so drank that they oould cot carry anything more awAy. The argument in this oi6e will be beard by Judge Weems this morning. It will then be determined whether or not it is a bailable case.

Petition of Mary Harvoy for permission to build a shod room on to her building on Fourth street, to extend on a line with her front fence, was referred to tho Oommittce on Street En croachments. The following report of the Finance Com mittee was received, road and adopted: The Finance Oommittce, to whom was re ferred the petition of tho Sisters of Mercy, be lieving that the education and care of orphans destitute of all means of support as conducted by the Sisters of Mercy, demand, at the hands of this Council, some aid and encouragement, we therefore recommond that the sum of $2,500 be paid them in monthly instalments, com mencing at suoh time as the Mayor may be able to spire tho necessary funds. J. W. Burke, T. O. Dempsey, R. J. Lightfoot, Committee. The following report of the Finance Com mittee was received, read and adopted: Hie Finance Committee, to whom was re ferred the petition of the Israeiitish congrega tion, respectfally state that it is not possible for ns to recommend the appropriation, for the reason that there are various denominations who are in like embarrassed circumstances, and that as no appropriation has ever been made to wards the building or completion of any honse of worship, we think it would be unsafe to in augurate m?h a precedence. This case is not a parallel one to tho appropriation to the col lege made at the last meeting, or the one re commended for the Sisters of Mercy, and if the Israeliiirih congregation should at any lime at tempt to bnild or endow an institution of learn ing, then it wonld be right and proper to assist them. We regret that we oannot recommend the appropriation, and that we aro compelled to recommend that the petition be not granted. J. W. Bubke, T. C. Dempsey, R. J. Lioiitfoot, Committee. Committee on Pumps to whom was referred the petition of E. O'Connell. John Marphy and others for a well to be sunk on Bay street, in East Maoon, reported favorably. Adopted.

Medical Department City cf Macon,> August 1, 1873. j To the Honorable Mayor and Council: Gentlemen—I beg leave to present my report for the month of July. Daring the month I have treated 39 cases And made 7C prescriptions, famishing the medicines. There has been two deaths, one child (colored) and one adult (white.) ~ have sent to the hospital three patients, have purchased during the month medicines to the amount of $14 40, the bill for which will be presented, approved bv me. The health of the city ha* been good. No epidemic diseases. Very respectful!v submitted, T. W. Mason. M. D., City Physician. On motion of Alderman Kahn— Resolved, That the donation of five thousand dollars to the Wesleyan Female College and twenty-five hnndred dollars to the Sisters of Mercy, be submitted to the voters of the city of Maoon for ratification or rejection, on the IGJi day of this month, being the day for the election of an alderman of the first ward. Lost. On motion oonncil adjourned to meet this diy two weeks at 8 o'clock p. m. J. A. McManus, Clerk. Revolutions Nrvxa Go Backward.—The phi losophical theory that the human system when weakene d by disease, oppressive heat, excessive labor or any other cause, should be toned and in vigorated instead of being subjected to the action of depleting drags, is gaining ground every day. The introduction of Hostetler's fctomocb Bitters twenty ye§rs ago gave a powerful icflaeuce to this common sense idea. As the extraordinary efficacy of tho great vegetable restorative became known, multitudes of debilitated invalids turned with loathing from the nauseous and strength-destroy ing potions with which it waa then the fashion to drench the sick, to this renovating, appetizing, vi talizing preparation derived from the finest roots, herbs and barks placed by botanical research at tho disposal of medical science. Revolutions nev er go backward. From that time to the present the importance of assisting aud reinforcing nature in her struggles with disease has been more and more widely and keenly appreciated by the sick and the suffering. In tens of thousands of house holds Hos^etter's Bitters aro lookeduponas the one thing needful in cases cf dyspepsia, general debility, constipation, nervons weakness, chills and fever, bihoos affections and all conditions of the body and mind that betoken a lack of vital en ergy. When the quicksilver ranges high, and the solid flesh is resolving itself into a den under the fervid temperature, this agreeable tonic is tbo best possible safeguard against all the disorders gener ated by a sultry and unwholesome atmosphere. It prevents and relieves lassitude and langor, and enables tho system to endure with impunity an un usual amount of exertion. Of all invigorating and regulating medicines, it is the purest and most wholesome. What They Bay.—Chicago Journal of Commerce says: Dr. Price's Flavoring Extracts are the fin est, purest, and best to be found in this or any other city, only necessary to visit his laboratory bo convinced that they are perfect in parity end superior in strength. Tho Chicago Tribune Re view says: Although the company, Steele Price, havo enlarged their facilities for the produc tion of Dr. Prise's Cream Baking Powder and Spe cial Flavoring?, they aro hardly able to meet the rapidly increasing demind for them. In this age of adulteration, it is gratifying to find one honest effort to stick by the old path of honesty, and con- snmors owo it to themselves to patronize those making the effort. For natural fi avoring none can compare with Dr. Price's, and to make the sweet- oe*, meet who’oeome, and easily digested bread use Dr. Price's Cream Bakins Powder.
