Addreaa Box 64, Post VcL 218—tf To Advertisers.—Advertisements to eecure insertion the same day, must be banded in by 12 o’clock noon. Qttj Subscribers.—W• fear that in some rises our City subscribers are neglected by tbs carriers for this office. Those who fril to receive the Opinion regularly will oblige us if they will notify ns promptly. Lecture.—We are gratified to learn that that popular lecture, thorough scholar and eminent divine, Rev. Father Ryan, will deliver a lecture in this city the incoming WC ek. The admirers of a high degree of Intellectual culture and splendid oratory will thus have an opportunity of a rare feast. liF.LUiiocs.—Religious services will be In-Kl to-morrow night at the school house on I.uckie (the building occupied by Miss Craighead as a free school) near Marietta street. The sendees will be continued from night to night as long as it seems to serve the best interests of those who at tend. The services will bo conducted by i:, v. Mr. Spilinan, Pastor of the M.

The performance of tin* Farce last night fs said to have been a complete success. We suppose that the play to-night will be equally so. N'kaklt a Runaway.—This morning the •pledid pair of steeds attached to Jack's ‘ Kscelsior” bread wagon took fright at a train passing, and came very near making a ranaway scrape of it. The driver, how ever, succeeded in managing them, and a general “smash up” was averted. Beat him Good.—Last night the west ern portion of the city was the scene of rather a personal affair. A soldier who is said to be “in” liquor, (or rather the liquor was in him) was sitting near the m;td-side, and fired a pistol. Soon after the report was heard, some one fell upon him w it i a club and beat him thoroughly, the soldier halloing, at the top of his voice, “murder! murder! 1 murder!!! The police hearing the excitement hastened to the scene of action, but ere they reached it a squad of soldiers arrived and took pos session of their inebriated comrade, and -walked” him oft* to his quarters. Ills as sailant made his escape. Tke Savannah Assault anl Caae. utery Condition of Mr, Hayes. The Messrs. Hopkins, who eommlted the murderous assault upon Mr. Hayes, on Sat urday night last, were not placed in Jail on Sunday night, but were held in custody at the United States barracks until yester day morning. Application wag made to Justice P. M. Russell, that they be admit ted to bail. The Justice addressed a note to Dr. King, inquiring as to Mr. Hayes’ con dition, to which answer was returned that it was extremely critical and dangerous. In view of the circumstances, the Justice refused bail, and a writ of habeas corpus was sued out before Judge Levi S. Bussell. It was argued at five o’clock in the after noon, by Hon. W. S.-Chialom, and Judge Wm. Law for the defence and S. Yates Levy, Esq., and D. Hair Bice, Esq, for the prosecution. The defense asked jbr a dis missal, on the ground of illegality of the second arrest. The motion was denied by the Judge, who remanded the prisoners back to jail, to await a hearing at ten o’clock, on Wednesday morning. This de cision was afterwards reversed, and they were admitted to bail, in the sum of $4J)00 each. The court decided that the second arrest was a legal one. Mr. Hayes’ condition last evening grew more alarming. He was again seized with convulsions, and was worse than he has been since the attack was first made.—Re publican, \lth.

Off roR the -Alabam.”—A squad of movers passing through the city the other day, on being interrogated as to -were they were bound for, replied that they where going to the “Alabam.” New State, eh ? Strictly Personal.—From a poster to be seen at the post office corner, we judge that there is, or has been, a personal affair between two of our citizens, and from the manner in which the poster speaks of the posted, we incline to the opinion that he means to be decidedly personal in his re marks about the posted gentleman. communicated.) Things Must Get Right.—I might give you many reasons why the people of At lanta are almost ruined, outside of the con- vqueaces of the war, but I will merely mention one cause, that of enormous rents, which have lieen exacted from the mer chant and the laboring classes generally. Houses, which would have rented before the war for *25 per month, are now renting from $120 to *125 and even $150 per month. Things must get right There is no money, no credit and laws in existence by which men can evade the payment of debts, and it must be apparent to every reflecting mind tiiat it would be much better that landlords put their rents at such prices as would enable their tenants to pay readily and punctually, than to ask such fabulous prices as to be beyond the reach of any who might be the occupant of their prem ises. Rents in every city in Georgia have gone and are going down; but in Atlanta, enormous and almost unpardonable prices are persisted in. Think of it; a house which could now be built for $4,000 rent ing for $1,800 per annum—over 40 per cent, upon the capital expended—and that monthly, in advance. Such cannot con tinue—rents must fall in proportion to the scarcity of money and the fall in every thing else; if those who are owning houses expect to rent them, and are unwilling to share in the misfortunes of the people con sequent upon the condition of the country, let them keep their premises until they are soldered down to a realization of existing facts. In conclusion, I must be permitted to say, that I pity the man, or set of men w ho would close their houses against the wants and demands of the community, merely from the fact that such prices for rents are demanded that the people cannot pay them. While on the other hand, if rents were reasonable and right, they would be punctually, met and all par ties satisfied. Justice. frg?" A paper is to be started in New Lon don, Connecticut, next month, on the co operative system, /ill who work on it— editors, reporters, printers, and book-keep ers—have invested money in it. The proprietors of the nail mills at Wheeling announce that on and after Mon day next a reduction of one dollar per ton will be made in the wages of boilers, nail ers and rollmeu. tir x avigation is announced from all quarters as closing. The New York canals are frozen; the Welland canal stopped The rivers of Maine, the Connecticut river the Upper Mississippi and the upper part of the Hudson are also frozen over, whilst several harbors to the eastward are already closed by ice. W The owners of Libby prison have presented a bill to the Quartermaster’s De partment for the use of that building dur ing the time it was occupied as a military hospital after the close of the war.

Philip's Church, Atlhnta, Ga., A. K. Seaoo, Esq. . Sir—In answer to your question respecting Baugh’s Raw Bone Super-Phosphate I send you the fol lowing facts: I prepared in my garden, at West End, three squares for Irish potatoes; on the first I put nothing; on the second. Guano at tbe rate of two hundred and fifty pounds per acre; on the third, your Bone Dust at the rate of three hundred pounds per acre. As you are not interested In the quality, I give no particulars of soil or mode ol cul ture, further than to say that in these re spects, and in time of planting the squares were equal. The square manured with Guano yielded forty per cent, over the nn- mannred square; and that manured with Baugh’s Raw Bone 8upcr-Fl. o.phate seventy-five per cent, over the unmanured square. It may be that the Guano was not a pure article. I bought it, however, for i > Peruvian, and from a reliable house, and at tbe same rate per pound as tbe Bone Dust CHAS. W.
