Bids wills be received for threo day* only, and contractors will have to do some lively work to get op bida in time. Plans and apooidoaliona for both buildings can be toon at Mayor HofTe effleo. Tnx Old Notuxos.—It is with a regret, nn- •oflened by tbo shade of the shadow of r.n emo tion of pleasure that we announce tbo reap- pearanoa of Alabama slings in tbo hands of the boys. They have begnn tbelr cnatomary diver sion of pigoon ahootlog, snd, when no birds era at hand, tbsy shoot at each other to tbo im minent peril of eyes and even limbs. Parents oogbl to Uke this mattor in band, and abso- lately refuse to allow their boys to nse tbo dsn- geroas plaything*. There is no other way to check tbo evil, ns no one wants to see their lads brought up before tho Mayor's Court. The polleo ought to bo inetruclod to dostroy every sling found in tho bonds of a boy. Tti rough Freight to Liverpool. The following preamble and resolutions adopted by the Oily Council Tuesday night, ars self-explanatory: Whereas, An (Oort is being made by rail road companies and other* to establish a through freight and passenger Ifno between Liverpool, Savannah and tbo Snothem and Western interior.

A Cal r.tarj. The hardest eat story wo over beard of was related c.pon the street.* yesterday. It is in this wist: There in a gentleman in this city who bos n cat (bat is now about fourteen years old. Kver; spring daring tbe past twelvo years that oat Una taken sick and diod. She died as natu ral deaths aa ever a eat died, and Is banled ont to fnrnish n feast to tbe biida and beasts prey. But the cat will not stay dead. Just often as she has died and been borno out, has sho reanseitsted and eame back again, olive and well. This has been done for twelvo oonseea live years, and still tbe eat is alivo and well. Hail Ibis occurred for nine yotrs only, it might have l<eeu accounted for by tho old theory re spooling tho anmber of IIvch that a cat bis. Ah it is, however, it is probable tbo animal only bos attacks of eat alspsy. Tin: rmn-nara liouicins. Arrest of DeWIt* Uiarrett ns Accessory. After the arrest of Mr. Pike Tuesday oven log, it was ascertained (hat tho parly who was present and board tbo interview between Pike and Baer was Mr. DeWitt Garrett, a young railroad man who is very well known in Macon. It is stated that he accompaniod Pike in bis search far Bu r, and is probably (he only man who actually saw the shot Ared. Judies Spriox doerood it proper to hold Mr. Garrett as a witness €a tbe part of the State, therefore ho required him to give bond for bis appoarnnoo as a witness. This angered Mr. Garrett, who was already under considerable excitement, and he attempted to draw a pistol, Being relieved of that bo next drew a knife upon Bailiff Lauey, but was prevented from using it, and was sent to jail. Yesterday a war' taut was Issued for his arrest as accessory bo rore (he fact of tbo killing of Baer, and is now in jail awaiting examination. Jadgo Woems bts boon retained in hia defense. Public Schools—Klectiou of TV noli em. We learn that the Connty Board of Einca tlon elected the following teachers yesterday Sait Jfaeon SJiooL—Principal, Walter G. Smith. Assistants—First, Mrs. A. A. Davis. Second, Miss Darraugh. Third, Miss Salllo Rogers. 4'•o'M if acta School—Principal, Henry T. Conner. Assistants—First, Miss Gnstin. Second, Miss Bessie Merrill. Third, Miss Mary Kell. Third IFmnf School (contingent)—Principal, J. H. Roberts. Assistants to borriectcd. Fourth Street School—8ister Angela. The contingency in the case of tho Third Ward School, is that tho people of the ward shall provide come reasonable shelter for tbe school; It Is ont of tho power of tho Board to do it. Bnt if they will mako provision, they shall have good schools—if not, they must wait till tome can be made. Tbe Third Ward oom- priies the whole noatheaslern corner of tbe oily—from Washington a Venn s to the river. It l« a wealthy section of the town, and shonld bo able to help the Board and help themselves in this matter. Encounter wllti a “SnrpeBt." When the Llnooln Guards bad their dress parade a few days ago, while they were perform' lng some of their evoiotions in the park, tbe front man, who had his eyes epon the ground a proper distance in front of him, saw a large black snake lifting its head ont of tbe gross. Immediately there vru executed ao evolution that is not laid down anywhere in Upton's tac tics. lie yelled "soaks,’’ loud enough to be beard half way to Forsyth, and leaped about a rod ta the air. Immediately there was a break ing of ranks without any orders from tho cap tain, and without the formality of stacking arms. Had a bomb burst in the midst of the company tbe Maturation oonld not have been greater, or the consternation more complete. At one time there were apprehensions of a regular Bull Run stampede. The captain, however, was equal to any emergaaoy, and, os ascertaining the precise nature of the alarm, sword In hand he made an attack upon tho enemy, and with ono sweep of his shining blade, cleft the head of tbe serpent, and left it to writhe and die in tho grass. After in..: the "martial tread" was very cautions, lest there be other "snakes in the grass." eli.rqnlra of Cbarlee I*. Baer. The foncrsl servicee of Charles F. Baer took plaoo yesterday from bis late boarding-hones, on Mniberry street, and were attended by quite ■ a large number of people—principally Jaws. J The remains were pieced in a very hsniaome casket, whisk was covered with a black pall, and on it wars hit. Odd Fellows' and Knights of Pythias regalias. Tho procession was formed on Mniberry street, with the KnighU of Pythias drat, headed by a band of moaie; next Germania Lodge cf Odd Fellowa, then the hearse, and then a num ber of carriages end buggies containing ladies and gentlemen. There were thirty- four Knights of Pythias out, and they presented a very handsome appesTtnce in their showy uni forms. There was only abont twenty Odd Feb lowa in Iho procession. The pall-bearers were selected from both orders. "hen the procession arrived at the cemetery the services peculiar to the Jewish faith were first performed Urer the remains. The Odd Fellows then went through with lheir beautiful ceremony, after which the Knights of Pythias passed around tbo grave and each Knight cost therein a sprig of evergreen. This ended tbe ceremonies, and the earth wis soon closed over the remains of this unfortunate young man. A Queer Objection. The city editor of the Colnmbns Sun, evi dently of the nnlceky ones of his race, has the foilowing paragraph: Watson, of the Macon Truxoiurn, objeola to Ilia newly elected alderman of that city, L. W. Randal, on tbe ground that be is a bachelor. We know tbe Biblo aays a bishop shall be the husband of one wife, and shall rule well bis o»n household, but we never before heard that this was required of an alderman. President Buchanan was an. old bachelor, and Governor Lewis, of Alabama, ta a young bachelor; to which foot we call tbe attention of onr genial brother local. That is tho poores*. argument in favor of bachelors wo over saw. While there has been one bachelor President, (hero havo been sixteen or seventeen who were not bachelors. While there is one'bachelor Governor in the United States, there are thirty-six who are married, and who govern well became they are well governed at home. For a genuine example of misery commend oa to a bachelor. He is a pig without a trough ; a hone without a bridle; a wagon without a tongue; he is everything whioh lacks something to oomplete it. A man doesn't work well in life's harness nntil he has a bridal of bis own. A man who baa had no honeymoon, is a honeycomb which tho bees have not begnn to fill with sweetness. Ho is an empty vinegar barrel. He knows no more of the pleasures of life than a babe that never sacked in any bnt tho Eoglish laognage knows of Hebrew. Bah! Talk abont old bachelors, all they are fit for is to bo set np sb a warning to young men, to show them bow mnch bettor it is to bo married and happy than unmarried and wretched. There is no more philosophy In being a bachelor (ban there is in Iho carl of a pig's tail. Ttoe «'onnty Court. There w;s bnt ono ease before Judge Weems yestetday. And that was against Robert John son, eolored, charged with stealing. Tho eir- cnmatances in this case were about as fallows. Mr. J. F. Barfield bad been mil sing goods from bis store, and was at some loss to account for iboir disappearance; and it was equally diffi cnlt to account for a cellar being open in tho morning which was invariably closed at night They thought, however, thst tbe beat way to solve Iho mystery would be to watch; and they dir] watch, and not many evenings had elapsed before they saw Ibis boy Robert Johnson slip into a back room of tho store and conceal him self. When the time oame for closing tho store they onstoil him from his hiding plseo and cap tured him, and ho confess jd to the whole thing. He had been in the habit of concealing himself in that way, and when everybody had gone he wonld help himself to what he wanted and escape by the oellar door. Whon bronght to (rial yosterday ho plead gnilly, and was aentenoed to pay $30 and costs or go to. tbe chain gang for six months. In pronoanoing judgment Jadge Weems told him that, in view of his plea or guilty, bo bad im posed the very lightest penalty that ho felt au thorized to impose. There was no nocessity for able-bodied men like he is to go to stealing, as there is plenty of work for everybody who wants lo make a living. Hereafter, in all simi lar coses, be shonld impose the fnll ponalty of the law—twelve months in the chain-gang. Mr. Cordell, the road contractor, was in tho conrt-room at tho timo tho trial ended, and took the priioner with him directly to tbe chain- gang, (has avoiding the necessity of retnrning him to jail. Til© Kayor's Conrt. His Honor, the Mayor, had fonr cases before him yesterday morning, a majority of whioh were up with tbo old ailment—whisky, and that of a very mean character. Tbe first name called was that of Gob Jon- loois, and In responso thereto, an anborn face, attached to a pair of shambling legs and a very norvons body, shied np to tho bar to answer to the charge of being drunk. The Colonel bad not a word to say, nor wps it neoefsary that he ahould have. His red oyes, pinky face nnd un steady carriage, nil told more plainly than any wards of his oonld utter, that he had been on a drunk for about a week, and was likely to re main so unless some means wore adopted to to shut off, at leaat temporarily, his Bupply of whisky. Tho Colonel is regarded aa a gone ease, bnt the Mayor determined to give him one more chanco to reform, hence be pat him down for fire dollars, orjthiriy days in the park. Five dollar bills are about as scares with the Colonel os Jane bngr are in December, there fore it is probable that be will perform same manual labor pro bono pnblioo, and his own good also. The next name was that of a not less distin guished mariner. Commodore T. J. Murphy, who loves tbe sea so well that ho is never so happy oa when he is •'half-seas-over," with two sails in the wind and the other o-fl opping. Tbo Commodore enjoys getling drank aa much as any man in Macon, and be enjoys himself while drunk to a most nnlimited extent. Notwith standing, be is an old salt, he can give John Barleycorn aa stout a tussle as anymsy who ever tried it; but, as it the usual result in such combats, the Commodore gets doored finally and ha< to sneenmb. This last struggle has been going an for a fortnight, and it has been ‘heated contest,” as candidates say, and i hough Commodore Mnrpby had to yield final ly, it can be said of him that he made a good fight and had a jovial time while ho was at it, and he was, in the end, not conquered, but subdued by numbers—of drinks. When his name was called yesterday morning, he marched np to the desk and plead not guilty and called for the proof. This was readily at hand, for it is reasonable to suppose that every man in Mtcon can bear testimony to the fact that the Commodore has been drunk recently, though there is aearcely one who wonld be willing to roach for the fact that be bss been sober. The Commodore's plea of not guilty, though made with all the air of injured innocence and offended dignity, did not avail him anything, since his Honor imposed upon him a penalty of five dollars fine, or thirty day's in the Park. When the judgment was announced, the Com modore folded hia arms across his breast and sanniered back to bis seat with tho air of one who was in a great hurry to go somewhere and had arrived just in time to aea the train turn ing the first enrre preparatory to going out of sight. The Commodore and his friend the Colonel will make a superb pair of laborera upon tho Perk, though to them. It will proba bly be an or j jyuient of nature under uninter esting, not to say disadvantageous, ciroum- atanees. '* V 11 ’ “ Jl * | T. Miss Luay Qrick attempted to drink all the whisky in Eut Macon Tuesday evening, and having done ao ta a great extent, she beana-e hilarious. In faot aba was tho happiest woman in East Maoon, and her happiness became eo boundless as to attxaet tho attention of officer Fennel, who approached and warbled in her off IT— “Oboome, love, come, tho stars are beaming, bnt Miss Lucy didn't coma worth a cent. Tbe most eodcclive smiles of Feoccl oonld not win the consent cf the coy malien. He then at tempted to take her by force; bnt a fall grown cel was no comparison to her as a wriggler. She oonld squirm berseif ont of his grasp as easily as water can ran ihrongh a sieve. .Fennel was finally compelled to nail a dray, and, with the assistance cf the drayman, managed to load Miss Lucy. Fennel then mounted the dray, and stood, a foot on either side of Miss Lucy, like a perfect colossus of lthcdes, and as they went to tho barracks he gently hummed that Id familiar air ‘Ob, take your time, Miss Lucy." Mias Lucy snoextd away vary Otsufuiiably during the ride, and then finished her asp in the bazTacks. Whon she eame into court yes terday morning she was a perfect picture of the “maiden all forlorn." Her hair am frowzy, and her face was soiled aad bloated, and her eyes red. Her dress ehowed more of mud than calico, while her bare feet pattered along the floor us ecftly os though laat yean’toil were not upon them still, She begged to be let off, and tried lo pump a few tears into her eyes, bnt her effort to cry ended in a most disastrous failure. She goes to work thirty days in the P.uk. Miss Quick was originally intended for a white wo man, bat art has wcfoiiy thwarted the original design of nature. I. -onard Carter, a amall-eized negro, went in on Lis muscle to a considerable extent, and he will have to pay a fine of flvo dollars, or go to work in tho Park thirty days. Whose Honsx n it?—On Saturday laat a oheeinnt sorrel mare was impounded at the City Hall, and has not yet been claimed. She was found in tbo lower part of the city, near tbe twamp, and had apparently broken away while hitched, as she htd on s saddle and a broken bridle.

When absent from home I have in two or three instances had the medicine prepared at a drag store, which did najls only. The city to famish tbe brick for foan- w 0 dations and have the same laid.
