Tits Georgia Medical College.— The exercises of this celebrated Institution were closed on Friday night, until after the Christ mas holidays, in a manner and style never to be forgotten by those who were fortunate enough to be present. The able and learned Faculty ol the College gave to the students of the present session, at the Globe Hotel, one of the most spleudid suppers we have ever attend ed, which was purveyed by mine host Hewilt in his really inimitable way, and for which he received the outspoken thanks of the inner man. The table, stretched entirely across the large dining hall, was literally loaded with eubstanlials and delicacies, and crowned in the centre by a beautiful orange tree filled with its luscious fruit, which increased the artistic finish of the whole and added greatly to the general effect. Ttie Dean the College, I)r. Dugas, presided at the head o( Lite table, which was tilled on both sides by the students, members of the City Council and invited guests. After partaking of the bountiful and delicious repast, the flow of eloquence, the flash of wit, the humorous story and delightful song, gave swilt wings to the flying hours until the mid night chimes spoke of the coming day. Among the gems of the evening, we cannot refrain froqj noticing the beautiful and elo quent recitation by Janies R. Randal), Esq., the “ Poet Son of the South,” of several exquisite poems, some of which were born of his own brilliant pen, and the impressive reply made by onr jovial and genial friend, Mr. Malt. O’Brien, to the toast of “ The Ladies,” by giv ing “The Song My Mother Sang" with a pa thos and power that stirred most deeply the hearts of all. The Georgia Medical College is now one of the finest, if not the very finest, institution of its kind in the South. The Faculty, lor ability, learning and scientific attainments, cannot be surpassed, and under their skilful management and unwearying care it is taking its place at the bead of our Southern colleges. With such names as Dugas, Ford, Campbell, Rains, Geddings, Doughty, Eve and Coleman to support it, there can be no question ot its triumphant success.— The attendance Ibis session lias been quite large and the students have made more Ilian usual progress in the acquirement of a thorough knowledge ol Heir noble profession. We truly wish the opportunity was afforded us to apeak of tins college ns it deserves, but we can only now express the firm belie! that a few years will place it among the lir-t. of the. land and till its balls with earnest, and devoted students. A. I’kontaut.--In those modern limes, when .deception liau r. u li'.'J a slate of perfection, wlii'ii frail'! an it mt'liee have become the study of almost i inajorily of mankind, it. is necessary t.o know with whom we deal. Especially is it ueccwary to know this when we deal in arti cles most easily counterfeited, Mich ns jewelry and the like. Now, >v,i know a gentleman •who liaa iv: ill,-d hi ihia city and carried on the same business for a great. many years, almost or fully as far hack a3 vte can remember. He has even borne a character as bright and untnr, nished as ihe goods iie offers for sale. This man belongs to I fiat small class of truly honest, men. This same man lias just returned from Europe with tin* finest stock of goods’ever offered in this market. His stock is of the best materia! and h • will warrant that who ever trades with him will find everything as he represent:! it. l oot, at his advertisement. But even this does not. contain pinch more than half of his variety. Call and examine the goods. The man we ail it do to is A. Prontaut. A 3wnisei'so Warrant. —We learn that on Friday application was made to Judge Phinizy,- by one of the newly etifrinehi#cfl citizens of this “glorious Union,” commonly and vul garly known a* freedraen, for a warrant to search the country for a lost cow. Now, we don’t know anything about this titse, but wc would conclude from the nature of the applica tion that :lie applicant was ‘‘/cinder” tender on the subject of “cow searches" and “search warrants.” Perhaps, on some occasion be has found that, the two work together, and from past experience prefers taking them at the same time to hating the warrant come after the cow. The citizens of Richmond county need have no fear, however, that their rooms and attics will be searched for the lost animal, for the warraut was not granted. If it had been granted it would have beeo Cuffy’s privi lege to search every hole and corner for his tost treasure. AnuKS-r <>§ Monky Thieves. —We learn from the Atlanta Constitution, of Friday, that Lieut. Johnson, of the Atlanta poliee, assisted by policeman Welding, meceeded, a few days since, in eaptnting the parties who, a short time ago, stole $10,006 from Mr. Jesse Dalton, an account of which has already appeared in these columns. Tney gave their names as Thomas Weavi r and Bill Simpson. Onr con temporary rays : “The former was found and arrested abont seven miles from the city, near the Chattahoo chee river, and the taller some six miles out of the city, on South river. Only about $2,500 ol the money had, up to last evening, been re covered—about $125 of which is in gold. “ Weaver and Simpson were placed in limbo to answer before the proper tribunal. Upon further developments of this affair we will keep our readers posted.” Another Old Citizen Gone.— We regret to announce the demise of one of onr oldest and most highly respected citizens, Mr. John A. Barnes, Sr., which sad event took place at his residence on yesterday from pneumonia. The deceased was a native ol Augusta, born August Ist, 1790, and through a long and honorable life was with its every inter est. He survived many of his contemporaries, but at last the weary wheels of his life have stopped and lie is gone. A man of strictest integrity, an earnest, upright citizen, a strong and devoted friend, the years will be many ere his memory shall fade from the hearts of those who knew him, anti Ills name be 11 s.lent in the land." The Weather lias moderated very much in the last twenty-four hours and a traveler would undoubtedly pronounce it Summer. Jake says it will “ rain on Christmas, sure, just be cause he wants to go out.” Catholic Chukchi— Wo are requested to announce that Rev. Father llyan will preach tomorrow. at High Mass—Subject—“One of God’s Great Absurdities.” On the Ma^ry. —Old Brigham Young is the “ out-marryinist ” man on this continent. It appears that, a short time since, he wedded five young ladies at one time, making a grand marriage; and only a few days afterwards—so strong is the old sinner’s ruling passion, which is to have more wives, than snv six men in bis kingdom—he proposed marriage to Madam Parepa Rosa, the “eminent Prima Donna.” She informed him that, as her husband was still among the living, she must respectfully decline. The old rascal, ready at all times to obviate any difficulties, instantly proposed to marry her husband also. Some United States troops, under the command of General Bntler, should he sent out there for the purpose of breaking up old Brig’s marriages, which are not ouly becoming alarmingly frequent, but seem to assume a very singular character. The general can obtain possession of all his valu ables, and thereby deprive him of the “ ready ” necessary to support so extensive a household, which old Brig, will then, no dautit, divide among the soldiers. The Circus.— There was a crowded canvas last night to witness the various performances at Stone & Murray’s celebrated Circus. The entire troupe sustains the enviable reputation, which iu tlie past it obtained, by not only do ing all that was promised, hut doiug it well, and we commend Stone & Murray to our contemporaries aud all pleasure loving people. The" Entertainment.-- We have only space to briefly direct the attention of our readers to the attractive programme, giving the characters, &c., in the contemplated charity entertainment next Wednesday night. We shall refer to it again. All should attend who desire to witness a plendid comedy and assist at the same time in a uoble cause. Stoves.— Mr. D. L. Fullerton hah one of the finest lots of stoves ever brought to this mark et, containing all the latest improvements and conveniences. Read his advertisement, aud if yon wish a splendid article in the stove line, do not fail to give him a call. You will certaiuly be pleased.

Blair, Smith & < o. have large list of good things this morning, such as flour, bacon, mo lasses and sugar. They have also whisky of dif ferent grades, bagging, rope, Ac. Read the advertisement.

At the same time he warned his hearers not to pull the cork too often, for they were far too pleasant a tonic to (rifle with.

The young matt admitted drawing the cheek, but iiatl no recollection of the circumstances, and could give no explanation, lfe was arrested, tried and convicted. H'S mother and sister aloue believed in his iiinoeeiice. Bowed down with shame, anil quable to vindicate his houor, lie died shortly after, in less than a year the bereaved mother died also, and the sister was left to struggle alone for a living, which she obtained by becoming a seamstress. A few days ago a lawyer was called to write the will of a man at the point of death. In ibis will lie bequeathed bis property to the sjster, and em bodied in the instrument a full .confession of the forgery committed eight years ago. He was the cashier of the firm, now grown rich.— It was by bis direction the draft was prepared; Now alter the lapse Qf eight years a tardy re psration is attempted to be ipaqe. sut it Will not restore life to the dead, or extract the bitter sting of sorrow aqd grief so loqg eqdqred. It is one of the strange gyeqts which make up the story of a life. Comparative Statement of the Condi tion of the Public Debt on December 1, 1867, with December 1, 1863.—The statement of the condition of the public on Decem ber !, 1867, shows that the amount of the debt, less cash in the Treasury on that day, was $3,501,205,751; on November l, 1867, it was $2,491,504,450. An increase of $9,701,301. Iu this amount is included the'sgm of $559,000 in bonds issued to Pacific Railroad companies. On the Ist of December, 1868, the public debt, less cash in the Treasury, was $2,539,031,- 844. Ob November 1, it wqs $2,537,129,552 ;an increase of $11,092,292. In this amount is in cluded the sum of $2,143,000 iu bonds issned to Pacific Railroad companies. Deducting amount ot Pacific Railroad bonds in both cases, it will be seen that the increase of the public debt this month-is but a trifle more than in the corres ponding month of last year.

The steamer Havana or Maranon is again in trouble, the Collector having threatened seizure on the ground of violation of law in not exhibiting proper papers when called for, and that a eltange of (lag was irregular. The fads relative to the milter arc: The vessel was purchased in New York by the Peruvian Government,the owners contracting to deliver her at Southwest Pass ; transfer was made, the Peruvian flag hoisted and the former captain remaining as sailing-master. Her American register was sent to New York for cancellation. Senior Garcia bar. been notified by the for mer owner that the register had been cancelled. It. was not intended to bring the vessel to this city, but while lying at Southwest Pass, re pairs to machinery became necessary and she came here under ilie Peruvian flag. She has since been the victim of continued misfortune, having caused misunderstandings Between Minister Garcia and Collector Fuller. Yester day a custom officer hoarder the Havana and demanded to see her papers. The captain re plied the vessel belonged to the Peruvian navy and had no papers to exhibit and referred the officer to Minister Garcia. The latter has re ceived no official oomtnunicqtion in reference to the matter, though he notified the custom authorities the Havana belonged to his Gov ernment, and his readiness to answer any charge attached to her. The whole tronble originated in coming here; had she remained at Southwest, Pass no notice would have been taken of her. Collector Filler states that charges have been made against the vessel of violations of law ; amongst others that powder had been landed from her in the night, and the law compelled him to seize her. unless papers produced were found regular. He, however, has referred the matter to the authorities at Washington, and will take no farther steps, unless upon advices from them. The vessel’s manifest slates she cleared for Southwest Pass. To-night Secretary McCulloch telegraphed Collector Fuller to be governed by section sixty of act of 1?99, and informed him that Secretary Seward had charge of the question of non-conapliance with laws by Peruvians. If, is stated that Collector Fuller has ordered the revenue cutter Wilderness to intercept the Maranou, should she attempt to go to sea without authority from the Custom House. Twenty-eight.'officers and crexy for the Peru vian fleet arrived last night. The monitors are still lying at the mouth of t'ae river, The steamer Era No. 10 sunk in Red river on the 17th, with 886 bales of cotton. No lives lost. Portion of the cargo saved. California.

Napoleon aud Eugenie visited Queen Isa bella. The changes in the French Ministry are re garded as c»nfinqaiion of Napoleon’s pro gramme of liberality at home and peace abroad. London, December 19. The Greeks sent two war ships to Syra to enforce free entrance to that harbor. The French, British and Russian Govern ments have each otic war vessel at Syra. Hebait Pacha does not attempt to blockade Syra ; he allowed two Greek ships to enter. The announcement of ttie sinking ol the Greek steamer Erosis is not confirmed. It is officially reported that Hebait Pasha, at the request of the French admiral in the Archi pelago, would await orders from the Turkish Government before coercing the Erosis. The utter inability of the Great Powers of Europe to control the action o's Greece in the pending trouble with Turkey excites distrust in financial circles here, and a general falling off in all moneyed values is feared. The press of Londqu quite iu urging the great Powers to a final remonstrance. Constantinople, December 19. The rejection of the Sultan’s ultimatum by Gjrecge is confirmed. The Greek ship Erosis ran into Syra, dam aged iu a conflict with a Turkish cruiser. Marine IST ews. Wilmington, December 19. The schooner M. O.
