The City Court, Judge E. M. Keila pre -Ming, ha-i b'-.-n in scs.-ion here during the Lust twow.- ka. and, J while it last*. Courtship and marriage uro peculiar institution-. I saw one match tondc. Be met her at the gate and poked hi* fingaaa in her rib*, and aid : Columbus,; Court’s bus lank bill* uiiial, atveral in idents have occurred in court of a rather lively character, n Honor started in on the fir.it day, by wip ing out the old Grand Jury and empanel ing a new on -, because it was known that romc of the old jurymen lia l signed a pa per expressing a willingness to receive, currency, t'; • shinplaoters of the Eagle and Phenix Manufacturing Company, of t as if it. was any of this ■s* whether a man received bone buttons ns dollars. The ejnrt has instituted suit against two of our banking companies for issuing the at«rc named shinplsstcrs, and it wanted a jury to back its action with t ills of in dictment. The next “pass” it made was at a memlnjr Uie new jury, for tak ing a drink “while on duty." It poppod him in the jail for nn hour for the ofTeii •.*, and as it was the first time that t'.ie gentleman ever “ fod upon the vapor, of a dungeon,” you may imagine how it worked on him. In jus tice to the gentleman, I would state thnt two or three members of the jury in formed mi- that he was not under the in fluence of lii|iior to the extent of inter fering with a proper discharge of his du ties. »>n Thursday last the court called ' •'!' the county, xml asked him if he sent n < •legram'W Montgomery a few days before ordering tho nrreat of Malcolm A. McNair, who is a .son-in-law of Judge Kells, and against whom the ■ -r •• jnrv had found a true bill for forgery. The licrilf replied that ho had sent S'teli a dispatch. Ity what author ity did you t -nd it?" asked the court. “ By authority of a capias in my posses- re.ii,".said tho sheriff. “ Did you know that a bond for McNair's appearance had ben given when you sent tho dispatch?" ' 1 did not,” replied tho sheriff. "Th sir, you should have known it,” said tho court, “ and I suspend you from a dis charge of your duties in this court indef initely.” A negro, named Isliain Haynes, was thereupon assigned to the position of •licrilf in this court. On Thursday lost s sharp colloquy took plaeo between tho court and Judge Fern M. Wood, on alrlo and popular lawyer of this city. During the exciting little confab. Judge Weed did not allude in very compli mentary terms to liis Honor's knowledge of law or purity and imparti ility as a judge. To which the Court replied, that notliing Judgo Wood could fay would make any impression upon it. Judge Wood rejoined by inviting Judge Keils to vacate the bench.and walk out on the street, and he would mako an impression npon him. It ended by a fine of $50 be ing imposed on Judgo Wood, and an or der to tho Sheriff to imprison him for five days. Judge W. refused to bo put into the dingy and dirty cells of the guard house, and stated that ho would go to the county jail at Clayton ; but by tho time the evening train arrived, the ire of tho Court liatl subsided nnd the imprison ment order was revoked, and tho offender given until tho Cth of January, (to which time court adjourned) to pay tho fine. So the King of Franco marched up the hill, and then marched down again. Take it all in all, Judgo Koils holds tho gayest court you ever saw or heard of. But for lock of time, tho Legislature thnt lias just adjourned would liavo repealed tho bill establishing this court—a consumma tion devoutly to bo wished by nil tho tax payers of tho city and county. Business has considerably revived in this market since my lost, and cotton is now coming freely from tho surrounding country. Our merchants nnd business men wear much moro cheerful visages, and the opinion is generally entertained that the crisis has boon passed. The Kufuuha Fire Department held its semi-annual parade nnd inspection on Monday lost, amt mad* a mo it creditable and imposing display. For tho strength of tho department in membership, I liavo no doubt it is the most efficient and active organization of the kind in tho South, if not in tho country. Tho city has re cently built a very neat and commodious engine house for tho "Bluff City” Hook and Ladder, and Phosnlx No. 2, compa nies and their respective machines, and they are now installed in their new quar ters. Their halls have been elegantly furnished, nnd will compare most favor ably with any in your city. After tho parade the other day, these two compa nies, in their new quarters, gave their brother firemen, members of tho City Council nnd city press a sumptuous feast of reason nnd How of wine, tho convivial ities of which lasted Gil n Into hour nt night. Among tho guests present was Mr. John Kehoo, and old chief of the de partment, who is now living in Birming ham. lie was, of course, lionized by tho ••boys,” nnd they put him through on a fast schedule. Your correspondent would return thanks for the many courtesies and attentions shown him during tho day ami evening by tho firemen of tho city. Tho Great Eastern Circus and Menage rie visits us on Wednesday next, it 1th, ami judging from the interest in it tho hugo posters lias awakened, it will draw an immense crowd, nnd gobble up many a dollar.

Paul dn Cliaillu. who lias been up look ing at tho Swedes, said in his Brooklyn lecture about them : When in Stockholm I l.iul a desire to **e tho King, so I wrote to the Secretary of State. I was politely informed that hi* Majesty hail gone visiting, but would return m two days. When ho arrived, I was invited to call on him. I wont to tho palace expecting to see soldiers, in fantry, cavalrymen and artillerymen; but there was only one soldier, and ho did not oven ask mo where I was going, or what I wanted. 1 went upstairs un challenged, and at length intercepted a servant by whom I was directed wliero to find the King. “ Good morning.” said he. "Good morning.” 1 responded. Ar.d this was our introduction. In less than three minutes he asked me to have a cigar, and then showed my books, which had been translated. I felt proud ; it was an honor to have them in his language, lie asked me to come and spend the next .lay with him. I wont and roamed through the palace in search of its owner. Finally I hallooed, "Is there any one about?” and succeeded in arousing some one who pointed me to a room. I entered it, and found tho King jnst putting on his coat. He had been at work painting. I was hospital dy entertained. When shout leaving I requested some of his ' ' iits to give to the girls in Brooklyn. Be pleasantly complied, writing on them, at my solicitation, his autograph. "Now,” said he, laughing, "you must send me tome portraits of Brooklyn girls.” I thought he was a splendid man. Of tho country where the sun shines night and day till ho gets tired of shin ing and then shuts up shop till next year, duCha illu »ays: At length I reached 71 deg. 50 min.. i . cape, the northern end of Europe. The coast of Norway is magnificent, its aarl,>rs lined with steamljoats; its moun tain., high and grand, are covered with glaoievs : its waters so clear that the bot- t'luof the sea is discernible. Sweden '•cars no comparison to it. Grog shops are one hundred miles apart. They buy "hi ky by the quantity, and keep drunk "I want to got married, don't you?” "Oh, 1 don't know. Go away.’’ “Yes, you do; let's get married.” "AVell, ask papa." "No. never mind him, we’ll get married anyhow.” And he went around telling everybody he aw, “I’m going to marry that girl/’ The preparations continued during the three weeks required by law to have the ban i published in the churches. Fishes were caught, stares for tlxc feaat laid in, beer brewed, and whisky purchased. Wed ding jollifications are indulged in for a week. This couple were married. They went from the church to the house, anil the bridesmaids locked th- bride in her room. Tho groom KNOCKED XT THE DOOR. "How much will you give to come in ?” ’’Two cows and $5.” ''That’s not enough.” "Three cows and $10.” "Oh, you are rich; you must give more than that." Five cows and $25 wu- the final offer, which was accepted. In writing to a lady you do not use the name but address it to her father like th is : "John Jones’ daughter,” and add the name of the farm. A Capital Suggestion. Referring to the conviction of Tweed and Genet, the Herald suggests that the time is propitious for the punishment of national thieves. The Credit Mobilier exposure*, which are only a sample of the crimes of the public men at Washington, showed a condition of affairs as bad in every way as Albany and in the city gov ernment. There is no reason why Tweed and Genet should be punished and Dawes and Kelley and Garfield and Patterson and the rest go unwhiptof justice. Thero are powerful criminals who stand to-day on the books of tho Treasury Department os defaulters to the government who liavo not even been required to settle their ac counts because of their influence in tho party. Gen. Howard, os the head of the Freedman’s Bureau, was known for a long time to liavo misappropriated tho public uionvy, anil yet no effort was inode to convict and punish him. The expos ure of Gen. Balloch a year ago was in itself Howard’s exposure and it was as much the duty of tho Secretary of War at that time os now to ask Congress to provide for his punishment. Tho case of Stokes, the Tennessee politician charged with committing bounty frauds, has not been disposed <>f,or lias been so manonged that the criminal escaped. Tho Wash ington Ring, as well os tho New York King, affords fit subjects for trial and punishment. Kettle Drums. Tho New York correspondent of tho Charleston News and Courier tells of the latest social institution in New York, as follows: A new stylo of private social entertain ment, imported from England, lias come very much into voguo lately in uptown fashionable circles. It is called the "Kettle-drum Party.” Such of your read ers as have not participated in a “kettle drum” and are anxious to keep up with the latest fashions, will thank me for sketching briefly tho forms observed at these gatherings.

Horo is W1IEKE THE KETTLE-DRUM COMES IN. Ono of these instruments of superior quality is provided by tlie hostess. It is placed in the corner of the parlor, and is beaten throughout the entertainment in a low monotonous tone by ono of tho male visitors. When a gentleman finds him self neglected by the servers it is liis duty to tako liis place at tlio drum until ho is relieved by nnother unfortunate. The use of the monotonous rub-a-dub will be apparent. The Indies and gentle men being paired off in couples, the noise, while it is not harsh enough to ho displeasing, is loud enough to permit couples to indulge in “ emotional conver sation” without being overheard by tho others. Thus amid love-making, scandal swapping and tea-sipping the party passes off, and yet to each guest it lias all tho characteristics of a private tete-a- tete. Tho information should not be omitted that spoons aro dispensed with and tea is imbibed through carefully pre pared straws, which, we aro assured, “preserve and heighten tho delicato bouquet of the herb.” ter M \ % ^akin A* FACTS FOR PARENTS Guardians to Consider.

Has tlie following Powerful Recommendations for Planters It is a genuine English made Manure, tho only ono in the market, and manu factured by a company having a capital of $1,250,000, which sells '10,000 tons annu ally, and has the most extensive works of tho kind in Groat Britain, which have boon in operation 2t years. The Langdale, therefore, has a good pedigree and is no experiment. It contains a larger proportion of chemical elements suited for the promotion of vegetable life, anil especially of cotton, than any, other fertilizer offered in the South. It is tho best and safest Colton Manure in the market. The analysis given with the Manure when sold will bo guaranteed. There shall l>o no mistake about the genuineness of the nrtiele, nor the good faith of the vendors. It is tho cheapest Manure offered, as it contains nothing but what is of use in becoming plant-food, or by chemical action on the soil, producing the same. Tho test of cheapness is not the price, but tho actual worth of the articlo purchased. Low-priced Manure cannot contain efficient quantities of pure and valuable chemi cals, which can alono give woitli to a fertilizer, and bring' satisfactory results. Tho Langdale is as low in price as is consistent with tho use of tho best ingredients, and a fair commercial profit on its cost. The employment of powerful machinery in mixing nnd pulverising the ingre dients prepares every particle for service, and prevents trouble in using. The Lang dale is unequalled in this respect, and impresses every ono who sees it as a perfectly manipulated Manure. In its composition and preparation it is tho result of careful scientific research nnd experiment, confirmed by practical application for a quarter of a century. It wQI bo maintained nt its present high standard, and is thus what planters hate long wanted - a thoronghly reliable anil safe Manure. THE MODEL MANURE AND PLANTER’S FRIEND.
