An act to make tax receivers, assessors of to have six performances more. The very general expression of approval of the efforts of the Company and the fact that several parties of Ladies were prevented visiting the Hall on many evenings in consequence of the bad weather, justifies the hope that the bu siness will be even better than it has been. Upon Mr. Fleming, the Manager, and leading actor of the Dramatic corps, the seal of appro bation has been set by the first authorities of the Union in such matters, and we can but say he has proved himself worthy of all the praise lavished upon him, both as an actor and a gen- deman. Wc witnessed his personation of Rich ard 3rd on Saturday evening last, and wc arc free to say it was very superior, exceeding any thing we have ever witnessed on the Macon boards. Many within our hearing expressed a desire to see it again, and we have no doubt its repetition would draw a brilliant audience. Mr. Fleming has a keen appreciation of the meaning of his Author upon all occasions, and possesses all the intensity requisite for the-suc cessful representation of the most difficult of Shakspcre’s characters. Mrs. Fleming is a most ladylike and accom plished actress, whose elegant deportment on the stage, and whose chaste and beautiful con ception of character, carries conviction to the audience that they are looking upon one who possesses no ordinary quality of mind. hundred thousand in gross income, and over fifty per cent, of nett profits! And all the vast amount of freight and travel represented by this income have been carried over the road during the year without accident or loss worth mentioning, and with perfect regularity. We say, then, with reason, it is a report of which the company may well be satisfied, and in which the President and officers of the compa ny and the State herself ought to feel a just pride, both in the exhibition it makes of our productive and business resources, and the judicious, enlightened, careful, honest and prudent management of our great work of in ternal improvement in Georgia. Contrast, for one moment, in imagination, the effect of such a rail-way report as this, backed and sustained by the exhibits of all the railway companies in Georgia—all show ing close management and handsome profits— with similar exhibits from eren tbe best of the Northern and Western States, and realize the result upon the credit of Georgia iu Europe. 1 And what an answer do these figures afford to the traditional associations of dilapidation, ruin aud waste with slave labor and slave com munities in the minds of European and North ern emancipationists!

This volume Is prettily illustrated with en gravings, and contains six tales of married life. “Unde Ben” is a bachelor, and should there fore, know all about matrimony; but whether he looks on the light or dark side—gives fright ful examples and sad experiences, tells of hea ven upon earth in blossom covered bowers and cots °r gives us the gentle intermingling of light and sliado—the steady, tranquil current of home life—the real “domestic felicity” monoto nous and disappointing enough, wo dare say, to young dreamers, this deponent cannot tell, for he- has not read the bool'. But if Unde Ben's lessons shall help to dip the wings of young novd-fed fancy on this subject, he may perhaps save a good deal of disappointment Let him teach that matrimony in most cases is ju«t what thc parties thereto choose to make it; and tiiat no magic in tbe silken tie, is going to make two disagreeable and selfish people happy companions. That quiet contentment is tbe rule of tbe happiest condition, and bliss neces sarily the exception. The Sociable ; or one thoneand and one Home Araneemeats.

In the Tax act we notice thc following expla natory clause:—“And whereas doubts exist among some Tax payers as to what property they are to give in and pay taxes for, under the present ad valorem system,” the seventh sec tion provides “That it is the true intent and meaning of the present law, that bonds, notes, or other obligations for money, on persons in other States, or bonds of tbe United States, or of other States, or bonds of corporations of other States, and shipping at sea, besides tho other - items mentioned, except lands and negroes, out of this State, shall be returned for taxation. And to insure a more full return, tlie tax oath is changed to conform to thc above provi sion. All Insurance companies out of tbe State, doing business in it, are taxed one percent upon premiums received. Tax act of 1850, in relation to foreign Bank capital, is revived. An act providing that from and after first of January, 1860, all laws authorizing Lotteries in Georgia, or the vending of Lottery tickets in 1 said State, are repealed—was passed. Gin House Burn oil. We are sorry to learn from Hayncvillc, Hous ton county, that CoL Demsey Brown’s Gin House was again destroyed by fire last Friday, With about 6 to 8 bales of cotton this time.

'the question of presenting Judge Watrous, of Texas, to the Senate for impeachment, was determined in the Hoorn last Wednesday. Mr. Stephens opposed it in a speech which there was great anxiety to bear, and which probably in good part determined the matter. He con tended that not a single point liad been proven IIAPS. A bill was passed by the Legislature chang ing thc venure in criminal causes, when in the opinion of thc presiding Judge a fair trial could not be had in thc County where thc crime was committed, by reason of prejudice, excitement, or any other cause whereby an impartial trial could not bc had. This bill, we regret to say, foiled to become a law, because in tlie hot haste of adjournment, it did not reccivo the signature of the President of the Senate. Mr. Gucrry, is, however, not to blame, as thc General Assembly did not, and would not hold over long enough for the Officers to arrange and prepare all tho bills passed for signature. It Is due to thc President of the Senate and Speaker of the House, to say, that but for tiieir promptness, industry and perseverance, many other important bills would hare becn lost.— What a commentary this Is, upon the delibera tion, dignity and patience of our Legislature ? After being engaged six weeks in preparing bu siness—after much of the business had been dis patched—then to refuse to remain in session long enough to allow the Officers to complete the copying, enrolling and signing bills which liad passed! Can such conduct be defended * We do not now knew where or upon whom Congress. Since tbe opening of the session, the Pacific Rail Road bill has been debated. Judging from the vote on Senator Mason’s motion to lay on thc table, wc jfresume there Is a majority in fo- vor of a road, but the difficulty seems to be to agree on thc route and a failure in this respect may defeat thc bill. Tho House has been principally engaged in the discussion ofthe resolution to impeach Judge Watrous, of Texas. Mr. Vallandigluun, of Ohio, and Mr. Steph ens of Georgia, liavc made very able speeches on the subject, extracts from both of which wq hope to give our readers in the next issue. agaiust tbe Judge.

Among the sales of valuable property adver tised in tlie Telegraph, we are requested to in vite particular attention to toe following: The Sale by Roberts, Executor, of thirty^even negroes and three thousand acres of land, in Jones County.

Tlie existence and prosperity of thc club is a laurel to both of them, and a credit to the city.

By this rule ita founders and builders deserve no brand of “ monopolists,” but the encouragement, approbation and gratitude of the people.

To say nothing of the smaller establishments let him look into the three large ones of Singer A Co., Grover A Baker, and toe Wheeler A n il- son Company.
