To-morrow it will be bringing the still more painful intelligence that he is not in danger. Americana rieiting Kruppe n work at Eeeex next year should keep out of the way of the new steam hammer. It will weigh one hun dred tons, and the man who happens to get under it will never get over it. The statue of Arminiui has a sword thirtj four feet long. Seat time the gentleman on the stage tells us to ‘‘take away the sword," he should make an exception of this one un less he expects to pay the freight chargee himself. She sent her husband down town after some red dye-stuff and he got cochineal, which wasn't what she wanted. She told him so and ho got mail, and when she insisted upon his going agsm he got madder—which was what she wanted in the first place. Lotte's Fountain, presented to her native San Francisco has become a popular institu tion. As the pearly drops fall into the elegant basin the ’Friecsn thinks he hears the far off tinklings of her banjo, and goes and fires stories at a Chinaman, to slow music. A correspondent wants to know if crooked whisky is more intoxicating than the straight article ? This point has never been definitely settled, but it’s certain that crooked whisky will get a man more than half sieze over some times more readily than the st^ight. A mammoth steer, owned by George Miller, a farmer oa Lost river, near Klamath Lake, Oregon, has arrived at Salem, and will lie sent to the Centennial. It stands nineteen hands, or ,ix feet four inches, measures twenty feet from tip to tip, and weighs 5.000 pounds. Says the Manhattan XationaUsi: “A man started for home from a village west of us, one day last week, and his horse got into a track worn by horses working a threshing machine, and followed it all night. He was sober enough by morning to turn his horse's head homeward.” The natural result of an equal commingling ■f the sexes in a Wyoming jury was recently %ibpllfled in a case wherein five days and nights of deliberation led-not a verdict, of course -but to five elopements; and tliero would undoubtedly have been six if the re maining Jury-woman hxdn't been a mitnro mother-in-law. In one town in NewJersey, when a jiolicenian taps at the door the next morning and says that though they are respectable people he must next time stop them when they are throwing coffee pots and patty pans at each other and disturbing the neighborhood, the man of the house smooths down the sticking plaster and sayß he was only celebrating his tin wedding. California presents another young criminal, a boy of fourteen, named McDonald, who has been sent to the Industrial school for having, within two weeks, committed one bqfglarr, stolen a horse and buggy, cbop|>ed a boy with hatohet. cut a man with a knife and stabbed his mother in the face. His mottier appeared "and pleaded hard foj him, saying that he was a real, good, obedient little boy." An interesting archwological discovery was made in Crimea recently while makiug excava tions for the foundations of a building. A tomb was uncovered containing the following objects : A head-dress of solid gold, parily re sembling a crown and partly a helmet; two cups of tho same metal, a ring containing a precious stone, a golilsn coronet, several gold broaches, and a coin on which is the eftigy of Alexander the Great. . When the Direct Cable accidentally broke last week, the Anglo-American Company at ouco put its rates up to ©1 gold por wont. The transaction exhibits the meanness of the mouop dy which hail been compelled to reduce its rates when the Direct Company reduced to 25 cents per word. It shows that the public will he shown no mercy as long as tho Anglo- Amorican has no competitor. It is gratifying to know, however, that tho Direct Company is repairing its cable. A Baltimore swindler wont to a near sighted merchant in the guiso of a telegraph mes senger, and got him to put his name in two places in what pnrpotod to ho a receipt book. Iteally tho fellow hail got him to sign his name on a blank loaf in such a way that a note uoultl bo written with a genuine signature an l endorsement. Tho profit to tho swindler was $223. anil the merchant and the hank that paid the money are quarreling about which shall lose. According to the annual railroad report for England, Wales, Scotland ami Ireland for 1873 the total number of miles of track was 16,082, The total coat of all these ratios of track was *2. UII,COI,MO, or an average cost of $182,912 | por milo. Tho number of pameegera carried by rail during tho year was 455,320,188. Tho not recoipts of all tho roads amounted to $134,915,700. Tho total share capital is $2,- 102,884.370, and tho dividends delaro 1 amount ed to 5.07 per cent, of tho wholo share capital. Kov. Dr. Hohenck, of New York, refused to perform tho funeral services for tho late Dr. i’ortoous on tho ground that ho had not been ••loyal” to tho church. It is a good thing for human kind that they have a steadfast hope of greater mercy hereafter than they are iu tho habit of getting here below. It would bo iu hotter taste for clergymen to waive all ques tions of loyalty for some higher tribunal, es pecially over tho dead bodies of their unfor tunate brethren. Nice tragedy at Maysville, Tenn. Mr. Murr, being jealous, administered a corporal correc tive to Mrs. Murr. Thou ho went to church ; but while he was engaged in his pious strug gles there, Mrs. Murr hanged herself.— Imagine Mr. M/s disgust when he came homo and found no Sunday dinner ready ! He seems to have been of the same sort with the hus baud at F.xeter, N. 1!., who the other day startled a police justice by asking him “how he supposed a man could sup|>ort a family iu these hard times when it cost $5 just to maul his wife a little!” Father Waldron, a Catholic clergyman at Chicago, in his walKs about the parish—a nota ble one for iis extreme poverty —found that the streets wore full of ragged and barefoot boys and girls who should go to school and to church, and discovered that pride—the fact that they were barefoot aud ragged—was at the bottom of it all. He didn't forthwith ascend tho pulpit and hold forth upon tho sin fulness of pride: ho commended it instead, and struak at the real root of the evil whon he earnestly appealed for funds to clothe these sensitive little exiles from school aud church. Baid he: “Give them Ihe boots first, then we can got them to the books afterwards.” Mrs. Eunice Jenkins, of Nantucket, who died last week, made a will with a siugnlar codicil.— She had one time narrowly escaped permanent blindness and was compelled to undergo a pain ful operation to avoid it, and bequeaths small sums to blind persons and disabled soldiers aud sailors. To one, her residuary legatee, she bo quaths SBOO ; to two she gives S2OO each ; to one she gives $125 ; twelve receive SIOO each: twelve $ 0 each ; six are given $25. and to tweutv-two. as a token of her appreciation of various trifling attentions ami courtesies through lire, she leaves SSO. The celebrated mammoth grapevine of Santa Barbara. Cal., has arrived at San Fran cisco. tracked in seven boxes, for shipment to the l'krladolphta Centennial Exhibition, where it is to be set up, with limbs attached in then natural position, as it stood for over half a century. This is the largest and most cele brated grape vine in the world. The trank er stem is over live and a half feet in circum ference: its foliage covered over ten thousand square feet; it has borne six tons of grapes annually : its age is from sixty to one hundred years. E.ght feet from the ground it branch es iuto twenty large limbs, one of which is twenty-seven inches in circumference. A story is told of a German soldier in Lor raine. which serves to illustrate the impossi bility of rooting out French sympathies in that province. The soldier was suffering from a cold in the head, and blew his nose in a way very common with German soldiers, but uct quite in accordance with civilized manners- A woman in the crowd exclaimed. "What! with all our five milliards, they have uot got pocket handkerchiefs yet!" A police agent heard her, and she was marched off to the lock-up, where she was fined five thalers. The crowd that followed her at once got up a subscription, and. in addition to paying the fine, gave her an other five thakrs, "for tho pleasure she had caused them." It seems to l>e of vast importance to some of the New York newspaper subscribers that the siegers and fiddlers who are paid to come over here from Europe to amuse us should ex press th selves as pleased with tliis country. Titiens is thus idiotically reported: "I do like New York very, very much (nodding her head with each very), all I have seen to-day (clasp ing and unclasping her hands). I do, truly (clasping them again ’. All I have seen ard heard prepares me to enjoy and like this city." It would have been a dreadfnf thing if this wo man had not been pleased with New York. She is to be well paid for her singing there, but the happiness of the entire American people appears to depend upon her opinion of the place, and her words are hurried into print to reassure us. It would have been all right if Johnny had squealed when he hail enough of it. There had been a lynching in the neighborhood, and the Its gat together in the woods to play a at hanging. Johnny Webb wa© to be the criminal, and to prevent any accident it was distinctly understood that he was to squeal when he wanted to be let down. The clothes line was noosed around his neck and ran over a limb, and he was hoisted into the air. He eked a good deal, and clutched at the rope ove his head, hut didn't squeal. So the boys touglit that he was only acting out, and kept m suspended. Just then a man came along, fi Johnny was revived with great difficulty. \ was near Knoxville, Tena. THE STATE.

Ribald, ramping, rioting rowdies rip slash and run rough-shod over Wash ington, rendering life unsafe in that town and driving ladies and gentlemen from the streets. After a careful perusal of the last Henry Couuty Ledger we feel justified in venturing the iutimetion that the editor of that paper would like to have some more money. The Governor has offered a reward of 3150 for Hicks, charged with the killing of A. J. Brown, in Carroll county, in 1873. The same amount is offered also by citizens of the county. Hampton Lockett, a negro more than 100 years old, died suddenly in Upson oounty the other day, not, however, till after he had picked 50 pounds of cotton, cut straw and fed the stock. The negro who was hung in Fayette oounty Friday for having outraged a young white girl exhorted his white and colored friends to try to meet him in Heaven, where he soon would be. Athens Georgian : We had the pleas ure of meeting, the other day, a young man vho during the Summer lias, by his own efforts, made enough money to de fray his college expenses for his entire junior year. A man calling himself H. S. Allen has been arrested in Macon for attempting to obtain money on forged letters of credit purporting to be from tho New York Agency of the Bank of British North America. The Washington Gazette concludes an article on the State University as fol lows : "The present college or high school system should tie abolished and the institution again made what it pre tends to be, the University of Georgia. The death of some of those who par ticipated in the wedding feast at Dalton the other day was caused by poison, which was traced to custards flavored with what was supposed to bo the oil of almond, but which proved to be a decoc tion of peaeh leaves. Warren ton Clipper : “Since we pur chased the Clipper in .Ttiue last we have demonstrated two facts; first, that we can publish a good paper, and second, that we can’t do it without money.” How do we know you can’t till you "try it awhile without money? “The Chronicle and Sentinel is a newsy paper to the brim and its editors are wide awake men.” The Jefferson Xetrs and J-'armcr will continue to com mand the respectful attention of the civilized world while it indulges iu sueh remarks as that. Greenesboro Herald : A little negro boy was burned to death last Saturday morning, at the place of Judge L. D. Carlton, a mile or so from Union Point. We regret to learn that J. H. Carlton, son of the Judge, was badly burned in trying to save the little boy. The Elberton Town Council is now composed of J. Sam Barnett, Esq., R. F. Tate, R. M. Heard, T. M. Swift and J. T.

An old man in Heard county died recently after being confined to his bed 7$ days, during which time he did not eat a teacupfull of food. He complained bnt little and np to two or three days before his death he could converse sensi blv, and could raise up and put his feet off the bed, although a mere skeleton. The Atlanta Herald has the following concerning a young lady formerly of Augusta: We cannot forbear paying a tribute to the genius of a young Atlanta composer, Miss Lidia Moore. She ha composed a piece of music which has been set to the words, “There is a Beau tiful Song in the Slumberous Air.” Both words and music are charming, and the latter reflects very great credit on Miss Moore. We predict that it will be very popular. Covington Enterprise : A yonng lady going to college in Covington and whose “papa” has the “stamps,” pat on her calico dress and a homespun apron, and during the sickness of the lady of the house cooked all the meals for a family of four for two days, besides doing the entire household duties, such as making up beds, feeding the chickens, dogs, pigs, etc., and learning her junior les sons well. Young man, that girl is a jewel. She is worth her weight in gold. George Speer, a negro aged thirty years, having a wife and five children, was hung at Fayetteville, Ga., yesterday afternoon, for rape committed on a white girl fifteen years old, on the 30th of May. She was passing along the road near the woods, on her way home, when Speer, with open knife and club, attack ed her, dragged her down behind a fence and outraged her. He was fully identified and convicted, but died de claring his innocence and accusing the people of conspiracy against him. He was a bad negro and met his fate un moved and defiant. A large crowd was present but good order was preserved. We are afraid the peaceful little vil lage of Warrentou is on the verge of a terrible drama. In his last paper the Professor of the Clipper quotes Jef ferson, Madison, Alexander Hamilton, M. De Malesherbes and De Tocqueville, all in one article, to say nothing of ele-, gant allusions to Gonzalo, Plato, Louis XIV, Nimrod and King Log. It is needless to add that he winds np, with spreading sails, and blazing guns, ,‘in the hurricane of a mighty revolution, shaking the nations like an earthquake.” We await, in breathlesss expectation, so to speak, the next tidings from War renton, but earnestly ejaculate, “Let us have peace !” The annual report of the President of the Central Railroad shows that, for the twelve months ending the 31st of Au gust, the earnings of the road—includ ing the Savannah and Atlanta divisions, the Central Railroad Bank, Southwest ern Railroad and Upson County Railroad —were 32,945,717 49. The expenses for the same period were 31,708,257 36, leaving net 31,237,460 13. The operat ing expenses of all the roads and divis ions operated by the company, 58 43- 100 per cent, of the gross earnings have been required. Taking the roads separately, the Savannah division stands at 53 21-100 per cent., the Atlanta division, 62 54-100 per cent., the South western Railroad, 65 4-10 per cent. The Upsou County Railroad has required all of its earnings and an additional sum of 8917 12 to operate it. The earnings per mile of roads operated have been : Ou the Savannah division, 85,484 52; on the Atlanta division, 85,390 90; on the Southwestern Railroad, 82,518 71, and on the Upsou County Railroad, 8495 74 A comparison with the operations for the twelve months ending the 31st of August, 1874, while it shows a falling off of 8209,349 55 in the earnings for the twelve months ending the 31st August, 1875, yet shows a netting of 8190,897 87 more in the last named period than in the first. Tho condition of the property is believed to be iu as good, if not bet ter, condition than at any period since the war. Deaths. In Macon, Ist, James M. Hembrie. In Rome, 2d, little son of Dr. Hale.

Improvement in Prices Probable. l-Veic York World, Editorial.] The speculation in cotton has taken a turn towards higher prices, and the de cline which has been going on almost uninterruptedly since March last seems at length to have received a decided check. Prices have been forced down in the meantime more than fonr cents a pound, and this affords an assurance of safe valnes which it is impossible to ig nore, fortified as it is by other circum stances of more or less significance. The Liverpool market has become quite ac tive, with a partial advance in prices. That market requires more liberal ship ments from the American ports, and bid higher prices to stimulate them. Besides it begins to be suspected that the crop for the current year has been over-estimated ia placing it at 4* to 4$ million bales. The planting season was late, the acreage without important in crease, the growing crops was assailed by drouths in some sections, floods in others, and latterly by storms, high winds, excessive rains and unseasonable cold in various parts. Much injury must have been done. The large re ceipts at the ports for the past month are of little significance. They are ac counted for by the fact that the plant ers needed money and carried forth a portion of their crops. This the navig able condition of the Southern rivers favored their doing, whereas one year ago they were nearly dry. The large receipts come from a portion of the South where the crop_was matured ear ly by drouth. Cotton goods are selling more freely, though at low prices. Thus there is no leading influence operating to depress prices, and the advance that has taken place is quite natural. Death of an Aged Lady. —Mrs. Mary Rhodes, mother of Mr. Thos. R. Rhodes, of this city, died a* her son’s residence yesterday morning, at the advanced age of eighty-seven years and one month. She was born in Union District, South Carolina, September 7th, 1788, and re sided in Augusta thirty-three years.

Bradfirld’s Female Regulator.—We have of ten read in the newspapers of the grand success of medical compounds put up at the North and else where. Many of those medicines have Lad their day, and we hear no more of them. Their proprie tors have made fortunes, not so much from the curative powers and virtues of their mixtures, as from the notoriety given them by advertising, by which people were made to believe all the good that was said of them. A preparation is now before the public which is becoming very popular, and is known as Bradfield’s Female Regulator, put up by L. H. Bradfleld, of Atlanta, Ga., at $1 50 per bottle. Such is its curative virtues, that it has gained wide spread popularity all over the country where it has been made known, and it is being introduced every where. We are in ormed that immense quantities of this medicine are being sold in all sections of the South and Southwest, especially in the city of New Orleans and Texas. This much we say in justice to its proprietor, who is a gentleman of integrity, and who would not en gage in the manufacture and sale of a humbug.— LaGrange Reporter. Two Miles Before Breakfast.

WEEKLY REVIEW. The Cotton market on spot has shown nota ble improvement; better demand for export has prerailed, and spinners have purchased a fair quantity, the settlement of the Fall River troubles exciting favorable influence in thiß direction. The export demand has been re stricted more latterly by scarcity of Ooean freight room; nevertheless during the week there have been sales for this purpose of 5,300 bales. Spinners have taken 5,360 bales for fu ture delivery. The market has not been with out excitement during the week, and prices advanced, owing in part as well to the advance on spot to the apparent settlement of diffi culties between England and China, though it is also due partly to rather low crop estimates, in consequence of falling off in receipts, which have not shown as large an exoess over last year as a short time ago.
