TII.rtKN JUBILKK IN ATLANTA. COLUMBUS INVITED—-A GRAND TIME. From the following Special dlapatch, received at this office last night, from one of our special correspondents, we are ap prised of a grand jubilee iu Atlanta, and an Invitation to Columbus to join them : Atlanta, December 9, 1876. Daily Times:— The celebration to be given here on next Tuesday night will be a grand affair. Atlanta, through her com mittees, extend a cordial Invitation to Co lumbus to be with thorn. I hope the Times will be represented, and that a large number of Oolumbusttsa will be on hand. Kallroad and hotel rates have been re duced for the occasion. Byrd. .-A-.- No Haiti House In Columbus. Is there another town In the country the size of Columbus, without a bath house? We hope not. Why can’t we have one? Is there no dirt here to soil the sur face of tolling or loitering humanity? Would one nioeeiy kept not pay? We be lieve it would; and would like to have the experiment tried by our thorough going young friend, Louis Wells, under the Georgia, Home. Will he consider this matter? oysters ! oyster* ! 1 oysters 111 Just received, seventy-five barrels ot selected Apalachicola Oysters. They aro very line. Toby Newman, Broad street, just above J. S. Jones' dry goods house. Two Hours anti a Hall ot HerrlutPiit. From the SAVsnnsh Nrw*. stli 1 The theatre was o'ltenod last evening by Harry Kobinson’s Minstrel* to a very largo audience—ln truth, remembering the terrible scones through which the city hah recently passed, we were surprised nt seeing the house so full. It was an evi dence that our people crave something to cheer them up, enliven their spirits and give their hearts new hope. Those who attended from tills motive wore not disap pointed, as we have seldom seen an audi ence so thoroughly entertained and amused. Throughout the entire perform ance the audience were kept In continual merriment. Indeed, the house was un usually enthusiastic, the gods of the gal lery’being particularly demonstrative. In the opening part the musical talent of the company was demonstrated in the rendering of pathetic and comic ballads, interspersed with ludicrous remarks and capital jokes. The quartette is onebf the best we have ever heard in a minstrel troupe. Saroney’s “My Mottier-in-Law” brought down the house, whilst Sadler's “Go Down, Moses,” created a perfect fu rore. The latter was a regular negro camp meeting song, and was given with so much unction that, to ears familiar to the sound, plantation remembrances wore recalled with great distinctness. "Father, Fray with me To-night,” by Levake, was enthusiastically encored, whilst the finale threw tho house into paroxisms of laugh ter. George Uobinson's female impersona tions are inimitable, and his reception was a practical evidence of the popular ver dict. The trombone solo of William Marsh was greeted with hearty applause, and especially was his response of “Dixie" to the encore received with tho wildest en thusiasm. Waters, Kelly and Sadler, “the big three,” In their statue clog dances, we have no hesitauevln pronouncing par ex cellence. , Possibly the most ludicrous and side splitting feature of the entire performance was the "Two Quakers,” as given bySars by and George Robinson. To be approd- properly it should lie seen. The make up of the “Two Elephants,” “Romeo” and "Bolivar” (Rushing and Gale) was unsurpassed, and their per formances elicited hearty laughter. Another feature, and the great one, was the "French Dancing Master,” in which Barony, George Robinaon and Sadler managed to keep the audience in a con tinual ripple of merriment. It was an in novation on the usual order of minstrel performance, but gave opportunity for the better display of the peculiar talents of these performers. W. -J. W’alton, who Is announced as the eeiebrated Musical Pasco,singing four oc taves, from low D to high D, one octavo higher than any other singer living, prov ed himsoU a wonder. He was loudly and frequently applauded and especially were bis coffee-pot and cornet solos received with approval. The performance conclu ded with a laughable l'arce entitled “Ner vous arid Brave,” and In thorough good humor the audience departed. rK.tfiNISNTH —Tbs election was all the go yesterday. —Now Is as good time as any to trans plant fruit trsoa. —Grant's game In houtli < Mrollna Hu ger el nnir, —A Boston papot asserts that all fisti tUts aro "plug ugiles." —lt improves buckwheat cakes to be eaten eyrup-tltlously. —Tho’rellable’fortune teller Is expected to be with us soon. —The Women’s Book-binding Hoolety of London has 820 members. —-Charity to the poor is commendable, but wornout bustles will not support life. —AU of the whiskey In Columbus was carried to the polls In piecemeals yester day. —Tha number of men seeking employ ment under the new Council I nemeses evory hour. —An Oglethorpe, (Ga.) steer got his horns (wedged between saplings, and there he starved. —The Florida orange crop Mid the facil ities for Its shipment promises to be bet ter this season than ever. —Both saints and sinners can enjoy the fun oMiobinsonVMlnstrels’ performance without being contaminated. —Tilden, Hendricks and Oregon! is the cry now.

Moral: Never drink whiskey or become the father of babies. A singular accident has occurred to a man lu London, He was smoking a clay pipe in the street, and was run against by another man.

Wo know la dles who do not enjoy tho busts of their husbands at all—ln fluid form at leust. Perhaps a real solid bust would l>e more agreeable. —After protesting earnestly against the inhumanity which prompts some news paper paragraphers to jest at the igno rance whieh brings misery upon unfortu nate people, Bayard Taylor experienced a playful spasm In which he .wrote the following: “One morning Miss Bridget O'Farrel Splittod up a petroleum barrel; ■Now,’ said she, Til have afolnrflre;’ And surely she did. For when they found Bid She was baked like a brick Only dryer." > ATLANTA NOU S. At the Mayor’s election in Atlanta, only 200 votes were polled for Dr. Angler for mayor. Ho had been previously nomina ted by caucus. This act of electing him by such a small vote, speaks well for the or ganization of Atlanta Democracy. They would not bolt, but only 200 could see It. Atlanta will have a grand Tilden dem onstration Tuesday night, In another column Is a dispatch inviting Columbus. Harris is makiug the Constitution more popular than ever.

A notorious thief named Jim Hubbard, was put in jail in Atlanta—a day or two afterward be fell dead. Even at this late day, the Atlanta press are throwing a crumb of comfort to the police, by publishing rumors of Wiley Iteddin's arrest.

Parfsans dress their children in richer materials than do the English women. Very young children's bonnets are made In black velvet, trlmmed with mus lin embroidery. There are sixty or seventy thousand unencumbered women in Massachusetts who sometimes think that the great crimes of their lives was in not dying when they were babies. Bailor suits remain In favnr for boys. Polonaises are worn by girls of all ages. The chief featilre of little girls' dresses is a bodice and skirt cut in one with an utter disregard to the waist. New linen collars, cravats, hows and cults have hemstitched borders wrought with blue or soarlet dots or stars. A gleam of delight passes over the anx oub brow of the house-keeper like a wintry sunbeam falling across a stock-yard, as she sees the Acs that have made life a bur den to her flattened hopelessly against the coiling with chilblains. Light colored cashmere shawls with round corners edged with ball fringe of the same color are pretty for house shawls. How wonderful is the instinct of love, that even enables the enamored youth, from his remote eyrie in a third-story back window, to identify his enslaver's raiment lapping the free air of heuven on a neighboring clothesline. Embroidered galloons and fringes for cashmeres and figured woolen fabrics, and fur bands for silk and velvet dresses. A newly married couple, just gone to house-keeping, appear to be very happy and affectionate, but It is thought there Is no harmony In their home. Tho wife plays an accord eon, and the husband is learning to play on a flute. Little boys wear stockings and neck ties which match in oolor. Cloth costumes are much trimmed with embroidered vel 'vet. “Jane what letter in the alphabet do you .Ilkabest ?" "Well, I don't like to say, Mr. Sriobbs.” “pooh, nonsense! tell right out Jano- wlifch do you like best?" "Well,” dropping her eyes, “I like u best." A Boston bride is a cross between Web ster’s Dictionary, in white satin, and the Scientific Monthly, ill pull-back and furbe lows. The fall styles present Nothing positive ly now, but the modifications of former fashions are very marked. A Western woman said of her lost hue band : “Daniel may he known by a scar on his nose, where I scratched him." Overdresses, which are not searf shapod, are very long back and front, and drawn very tightly back. “Lenny,” said her maiden aunt,” you should eat the barley that is In your soup, or you’ll never get a man," Lenny, look ing up innocently, inquired, "Is that what you eat it for, aur.ty ?” Trimming the bottom of dress skirts by putting thick fringe to fall over pleating 6 is pretty. One of Worth's favorite de signs is to trim a knife pleated flounce of black silk, which may be four or five inches deep, with a fringe two inches wide falling from the top; above this an erect knife-pleated frill two inches wide. This trimming should be alike all around the dress. A young lady recently said to her lover; “You may be too late for the cars, but you can taken'bus;'” and the stupid feller went to look for a “buss.” When Dobbs was dying, his wife, who had lsd him a terrible life,was afraid that he would either cut her off with a shilling, or prevent her marrying again; she was young and handsome if she was a Tartar. But Dobbs left her all his money, on con dition of her marrying once more, "for thon," said he, "I shall be certain that somebodyf else will be as miserable as I have been.” Ah. thou art like the rose, That blooms in May-time's sweetnefts, Since thy heart doth disclose A pureue% to completes* The fashionable colors of gloves for street wear are the same as in cloth for costumes; navy blue, plum blue; hunter's and myrUe green, slate and a long line ot neutral tints. Evening gloves are worn In the delicate tints of straw, salmon, cream and wheat color; with lavender, silver; pale grays, flesh, snow blue, and pale rose. As an instance of old Spartan virtue revived In our midst—ln case of a woman, too—we note the fact of the lady who visited several stores the other day, with a full purse, and made no purchases; a phenomenon due entirely to unequalled self-control. Many young ladies are now interesting themselves in the art of decorating and embellishing potter}'. It is a pleasing and useful pastime, and promises to have an extensive following. At a Texas baby show, it was a long time before any one could be found to act as a judge. Finally five brave men were found to act, on condition that the awards should not be announced till the judges had ten minutes the start. Tho mothers sftt in a circle, babies in lap. The judges made their round, compared notes, hand ed the result to the spokesman, and ran for their lives. In the Belgian department at the Cen tennial were lace handkerchiefs marked $136, sold ; fans, $156 each; a black lace scarf, tl,ici); flouncing, eighteen inches wide, $lB7 a yard. Such extravagance should be condemned except in million aires; and yet as works of art, as monu ments of human “kill and industry, they were much admired by the ladies.
