There is now talk of organizing three military companies in AUtena—i4o in fantry and oue artillery. A white man was knocked senseless Friday night, by a young Broad street book-Reeper, with a wagon-spoke. We learn that a large number of Mr. Speer's speeches are being distributed to negroes trom the Alliens post-office.

In fact, she was most em phatic in her dissent, and on more than one occassion punctuated her re monstrances with a piece of leather trace. But it *e~ms that love laughs at parents as well aa bolts and bars, and Sally continued to hold sweet communion with her adored. She met her lover on Friday night, when this pair of young hearts re newed their pledges of eternal con stancy. But somehow the news of this meeting reached the mother and she administered another gentle re buke to her daughter with that strap. This last indignity rankled deeply in the heart of the maiden, and so she determined to end her miserable ex istence. Purchasing two vials of laudanum, she repaired into the kitch en and after coughingto attract the at tention of the cook, turned the deadly poison to her iipe. Happily the pro gramme doubtless ended just as Sally expected. Polly Menafield dashed the poison from her lips and thus saved this young life from a fearful death. We did not learn bow the pro gramme ended—whether the mother relented and sending for her daugh ter’s lover cried, “Bless thee, my chil dren,” or whether she again resorted : to the strop—but we are rather inclin ed to the latter opinion.

And yet “Our Emory” and his Pete claim to be democrats. From all such, good Lord deliver os! Our advices from the managers of construction of the many railroads now being built in Georgia are to the effect that work is being pushed with great energy. Grading and track laying on the Georgia Pacific are going ahead as fast as Major Temple, with two thousand men and abundant material can send them. An exenrsion train will be run into Douglasville, twenty-six miles from Atlanta, early in the month of May. Work on the Atlanta and Rome di vision of the Cincinnati and Georgia railroad is being rushed with Major McCracken’s tireless energy, while the grading on tbe Atlantaand Macon division is nearly done, and the track is traveling toward a junction, from each end, at the rate of two mi’es a day. Atlanta will receive an excur sion from Macon, over this new rood, July 4th. One reason why this road rises like magic from the ground, is because Ohio men have hold of it. The extension of the Savannah, Florida and Western, to Chattahoo chee, Florida, Is nearly done, and is a most important enterprise for Colonel Haines’ system and that section of country. The North-Eastern railroad is anoth er of the vigorously pushed lines, through Habersham county and Ra bun Gap, to the east Tennessee sys tem.

Tbe East Tennessee ten mile cut-off between VameU’a, in Georgia, and Ctoltewah, in Tennessee, is being qui etly built, and will be finished before many people find it out. The Knoxville and Augusta, under the energetic management of Colonel Twiggs, is completed to Greenwood, South Carolina, thus making its Greenville and Columbia connection.
