The wind rose yesterday and sent the dust flying in clouds through the streets. The registry list closed yesterday. We will publish it entire Tuesday morning. The city was lull of people yester day. The busiest Saturday lor sev eral weeks. Miss Josie Gilleland of Jackson county, is visiting relatives and friends in Athens.

Next Thursday night, at the First Methodist church, there will be a thanksgiving song service. This will be the last social service of the Con ference year. At the First Methodist church to day the subject ot the pastor’s dis courses will bo, for this morniug, ‘The Transfiguration;’ for to-night, ‘Christ, the Conqueror of the Devil.* I All the lamp post on the corner of Pulaski street and Prince avenue needs is a new globe, a supply of gas and a match. It will th*?n be ot considera ble service to noctural predestrians. The Jackson Herald justly com* plains that while the fair has been re duced from Athens to the Exposition on the Northeastern, it remains tbo «ame at the other stations along the road. AI1 the people should have the chance to visit the great show*. The Jackson Herald wants tbo names of the streets in Jefferson posts ed up at tho corners. This is a good move and we hope the Herald will urge it There is danger of a stran ger getting lost in that growing me tropolis unless he has some guide to his movements. One of Reaves, Nicholson & Co’s teams took a running start this morning, went about 100 yards and brought np against a wagon and some cotton bales. No damage done ex* eept the severe jolting up of one mule 1 by his contact with the wagon. i We have heard nothing for several days about tho Athens branch czteu- tion into the city. We hope the au thorities will not bo deterred from building it by the oost ot the work. In another place will bo seen the announcement of the name of J udge 8. M. Herrington for alderman in the second ward. Judge Herrington is one of our best citizens, possesses splendid business qualifications and would fill this office with honor to hiinse!f{and credit to the city. Almost a Serious Accident. A countryman, whose name we did not learn, was in the city yesterday, with his wife. During the morning he left her atul imbibed too freely of benzine, getting himself into a dashing reckie<3 mood, which boded trouble in one way or another. His wife thought it best to get him off home, aud finally pursuaded him to start. They got into their buggy and the man without rogard for consequences, put the horse at full speed. They came down Thomas street, the man urging tho horse to n faster gait and the woman clinging to his arm for dear life. Reaching Broad street they turned suddenly arouud the cor ner al Bloomfield & Sanford’s, to the tumiueul danger of breaking their necks. Going down the hill they came to the coiner of Foundry street where in attempting to turn as he** fore both were thrown headlong into the street. The woman was consider ably bruised but the man escaped without much injury. After the ac cident the wife said she was afraid t 0 go home with her husband in his drunken condition and refused to re turn to the buggy. We didn’t learn what became ot them. Resignation of Dr. Laimntni. Many of onr people remember Dr. S. Landrum, who was once pastor of the Baptist church in tins city and was here in April during tho gission of the Baptist convention. IIo was made financial secretary ot Mercor University at that time. He has just resigned this position aud accepted the pastorate *»f the largest Baptist church in New O. leans, and also will be general missionary superintendent of the Home Board of the Southern Baptist convention for that city and section. His duparture from Georgia wiil be deeply regretted. Special Market Repart. Young men—steady. Girls—lively, willing and in de* maud. Pap is—firm, but declining.

Some fresh Northern apple* just re ceiV^l'ntdliehaidfODS, ‘Jollegu Ave Superior (Court Notea. The case of R. T. Wilson & Co. vs A. R Johnson begun on Friday was not finished until yesterday. It was warmly contested, with T. \V. Rucks er. and E. T. Brown, Esq*, for plain tiff and Col. S P Thurmond and Geo. D Thomas, Esq, for defendant. A verdict was rendered for . No other case was tried, and after disposing of some business of minor importance the court took recess till Monday. Judge E H Pottle, of the North ern circuit will preside for Judge Er- wiu next week, in oases in which t he latter is disqualified by reason of hav ing beeu interested in them. Judge Erwin wiil visit Atlanta du ring the week.

No criminal business will bo ta ken up till Mouday week, except the •case of the state vs John Franklin. The grand jury have progressed to rapidly with their duties that it is thought they wiil be ready to adjourn early next week. It seems that tho negro women charged with receiving the good* sto len from Cespei Morris* store got oil on n technicality. The manner in which the hill wan drawn ami the charge of the court caused the jury to render a verdict of not guilty though .there was considerable eyi- dencu^Lo sustain the charge. The New York Commercial on election day quoted the venerable Thurlow Weed as saying that “he had just cast his ’sixtieth election vote,’ and had cast more votes than any other living man in this city.’’ On which the World sagaciously re marks that “ ‘sixty votes’ are a good day’s work, no doubt, and a very good day’s work for a man so well on in years as Mr. Weed.” If Mr. Weed were young and vigorous his career as a repeater would be unsurpassable.
