The recent meeting at Athena of the (jck holders of the North eastern Rail- «*d, has shown by the reporta of the •flours that the work from that point to Air-Line Rood ia almost finished, hurty-threc miles of the road are already adod and ready for the cross ties and iron, leaving only five miles to be finished, which the* Exigineer promises will be ready by the beginning of February next. The at -rage cost per mile will be $4,000. which hi $1,000 per mile leas than the late. Thin is a very satisfactory ex hibit, and reflects great credit on the ffficers and directors of the company. The work from the Air Line to Rabun Gap will be pushed forward immediately. |The people all along the line are fully ■ live to the importance of the enterprise, nth aa it will affect their own immediate iterent*, and as it will insure the com pletion at an early day, of a great through line from the Northwest to the ports on the Atlantic seaboard. The* proceedings of the Chicago and South Atlantic railroad convention which held at Chicago on tho 9th and 10th instant, prove that the capitalist* and people of the Northwestern Status are in est in their desire to connect their country with ours by a direct line of rail road and thus supply a want which has long been felt by the people of both aec- s. The convention discussed the merits of two lines; one by tho French Broad and Ashvillc, North Carol: through the Carolina* to Charleston, and one by the Bluo^ Kidgo and Rabun Gan, through Georgia to Savannah, Bruns wick, via Maoon, Port Royal and Charles ton. The manifest ad vantage of tho latter route which) gives access to four large ports and traverses so much wider and richer country than that by tho French Broad, will oertainly command the pref erence of the sagacious business men of the Northwest, and, wo trust, insure the adoption of the line by Rabun Gap. A new wee kly paper called Every Sat urday, has just been established at Mil** ledgeville, by t L. Hunter. Price one dollar per annum, which is certainly cheap. Too cheap, we fear, to fast long. It is a newsy sheet, though, especially in tho matter of local events. The Hawkinsville Dispatch blooms oat in a handsome new dress, and enlarged to thirty-twg columns. It is aa good look ing now, as it lias always been enterpris ing and well conducted. Oun cotemporary of the Savannah News has also donned some new garments lately which mightily become it. We are glad to note these evidences of thrift and energy on the part of our friends J| From tho Milledgevillu Every Satu day we learn that Thomas Harris, an old man living near that place, shot tally wounled an old lady sixty-two years old, named Mrs. Judy Goff, last Saturday.

Too Much, Killing.—Commenting upon and heartily endorsing a recent article in the Telegraph and Messes- her, under the above head, the Early County News adds some very pertinent wonts of Its own as to tho prevalence of other sins that deserve the severest con demnation.

He wa* a printer and formerly lived in Athens, and is the second young man irora that place who has been killed on the State Road within a month past. The Approaching State Fair. A visit at headquurters yesterday, found secretary, clerks and all employes, busily engaged in receiving and recording the entries which were incessantly pour ing in. Of theae, over one thousand have already been made, covering the whole field of liVe stock, agr —lltural imple ments. domestic industry And the fine arts. And yet a whole week remains before the entries will be dosed. The prospect of a brilliant and most successful exposition arc flattering in deed. Mayor Huff, with characteristic sagacity and energy, resolved not to rely upon "Old Probs,** is determined that rain or no rain the multitude of guests who may honor our city with their pres ence, shall bo duly protected from the dust. To this intent, watering machines will plentifully besprinkle the grounds and walks adjacent to the Halls, so that all may breathe freely aj}«l enjoy them selves. If any. then, ore disposed to stay away on account of the dust, fat them dismiss their fears, for they may rely at least upon artificial rain in abundance. Mr. Huff is untiring in his efforts to make this display of Georgia industry and resources, eclipse any previous exhi bition of the kind at the South. And if the half that has been promised be real ixed. the result will be a proud triumph to our State and city. We have no fear ofthexeeult. The next week will find our lovely city park almost as beautiful as the fabled Klysian fields, thronged with the rvprs son'-stive classes of Geor gia. embracing hsr kdOeat farmers, sturdy mechanics, merchant princes, 'skillful scientist* and the elite of (the fashionable world. There will be an array of beauty, intelligence, enterprise, and industrial skill present, which will eliallcnge tho ad miration of visitors from abroad, and evince that onr people ore by no means broken in spirit by the events of the war, or disposed to sulk, and abandon the work of reconstruction and progress in the true sense of those words.

U| g.-Icititen. frown upon the thou sand and one improprieties they meet from day to day. Let our churches be more rigid in tho enforcement of discip line. for. on account of the want of dis cipline in onr churches, we verily believe much of the loose morals of the country is attribntable. It is a notorious fact that churches all over the land retain in their membership persons who make promises that they never fulfil, who contract debts they never trj_to pay. who give wa; to their passions, and even pro- fan- the narno of tho tlod they profess to worship, and no notion is taken of them, unless it he some severe criticism on the unfaithfulness of the church by some one who makes no pretensions to being a Christian. These things ought not so to be. and so long as they are tolerated, so long will there be a loo*) state of morals in the country. Many of our churches will arraign their jnemban for engaging in somo of the amusements of the day, such as dancing, for instance, but will fellowship tho man, year after year, who IS intmcta debts and makes no efforts to pay them; who will take advantage of his neighbor in a trade, and whose whole walk and conversation betaken anything else but a professor of religion. Is their either sense or Christian consistency on the part of a church in thus acting ? Tint Brunswick Appeal says Mr. de Neufvillc. agent of the German and other bondholders, was pnt in . ossession of the Brunswick awl Albany railroad and ap- purtcnanccs lost Wednesday, and that Mr. de X. immediately placed Col.

Thk Houston Home Journal says that county has shipped three thousand bales of cotton to market this season, and that nine-tenths of tho crop will be gathered by November 1st. A’.MOST a H U.OCAUST.—The same pa per says while Mr. J. E. Mann and Ben Brown (col.) were driving outof town the other day. they saw smoke issuing from a negro house. On going to it they found the door locked. Without hesitation they broke it down and fonnd two chil- ilren in the bed and it afire. They car ried out the babies and put out the fire, which was caused by the children playing with some matches. About this time tho fond parents and occupants of the house arrived, and one of them thought that “ it wnm't right for a whim man to break down a body's door while thay'xe at church curving the Lori* The other showed some little gratitude. 2U»»pw Escxrx.—The Milledgevill, Every Sofunky soys while Mr. Wm.

The Florida papers are complaining heavily of theft* and illicit trading in seed cotton and demand special legisla tion to meet the emergency,. The Talla hassee Floridian estimates the damage by the late cyclone in that State at 20 to 25 per cent, of the cotton crop, bnt says as much will be harvested as la»t year. Corn seems to be abundant in Florida. The Floridian says there was any amount for sale on Saturday, generally at fifty cents and sometimes as low as forty cent* per bushel. Corn meal was also selling at fifty cents. Living in Tampa is cheap enough according to the Guardian.

This cedar is gotten out and hauled to Tampa in the shape of nicely hown logs, some ten feet in length, worth on an average, 50 cents per square foot. This timber is then shipped to New York, sawed into small slips, cedar pencil length, thence sent to Europe. In the ante helium days there was a large mill in active operation, saw ing this cedar, but .the proprietor dying, the worl was suspended. At this mo- men# the cellar mill here is doing nothing, for the reason that the man to whom it is leased awaits suitable machinery from the North. There are a number of bones packed with sawn cedar lying out in the weather near the mill, some of which are broken open and contents scattered to rot. The cedar logs as hauled in by the farmers, are in piles about town and in heaps along the river. Tho cedar forests up the river are almost inexhaustible, though in the swampy hammocks cause ways have to built to facilifate the get ting out of the cedar. DAY IMS PATCHES. Corruption in the Police. New York, October 20.—It is said that charges of a most serious character have been preferred against various members of the detective squad at police headquar ters. The principal of these charges, it is understood, will be based upon alleged collusion between the detective* and Geo. ffcD »nnell. lately convict**d of forgery in London. It is a Hegel that McDonnell was allowed to retain a large amount of money, which should have been seized and delivered to Mr. DaCosta, the repre sentative of the Bank of England in this country.

Tlio com missioner then reminded them of their treaty obligations tc do such things as that which he now required, and warned them that he would give them thirty days to consider the matter.

Even after this threat the -chiefs said they would deliver to the. Government five other Indian* of; their.tribe, who were now raiding in Texas. To this the commissioners made no objection and the chiefs furnished scouts to accompany a detachment of troops in pursuit of tho raiders.
