We find ill the Enquirer of the lfith, three days later, the following: "The lj intf lillut e\eu fiirtUm:; jjiiul "with his lirnnilrSiK nrreganee ntirl thipu "dent conceit, told his hearers that the "jetty at WoolfoUt’M bar had washed away "in ruqtatgrilfvwid that tliß.e lts uad “wmif-\w|K Biel goievdorii fe> the Cult'.' 1 And much more in the same strain, of which our people have long since wearied, forbidding a full repetition here. AYlijt ihould oar inAanj.iant he so el,amorously called for, and so round ly berimed by Ihe Jfinyuirrr, yvhug it [lossessed and published the same in formation concerning thi? .jetty’s trip to the Bay? ' The public learned with bated breath and trembling emotion, the sad fate of our informant, through the following paragraph in Sunday’s Enquirer: “Could we learn the fellow’s name, we "would publish it to the world, though he "were armed like the Itagleys and a duel “ist like Lily. Somebody is responsible "for Uiis arrant falsehood, so calculated to "injure our city. Let the men wlm repeal "the story for truth Kivu the name, or as "suino the resiionsibiiity of having trn "dueed lirave, holiest bieh,.and deliharute "lv faisititKl tlk* statement of taels, tlie “truth of which could tie easily learned." We rcsneetfuUy suggest for its own satisfaction (no one else having man ifested Much interest), that the name of i/s o(ioi. informant might satisfy 1 his vigorous March for a “lying idiot,’’ "shameless liar,” and “brain less. umigaiib hjipudent Treutuij?.". The *’infpnTU*p)ed ftlfow’’ nhd ’’Tit tle brainless devil” would doubtless gladly avail himself of the “world” wide celebrity so fearlessly promised. In response to an Invitation sent os by UqjL Oladowski, wo Jowl the plea sure of a personal interview with him, and found no apjirehonsion upon his mind that our article was intend ed to imply fraud on his part. We can here say, in justice to Col. 0., that our informant expressed the opinion that had his plans been car ried out, work at \VvoU'<dk.'s lair woSM have Wen At \ iionvior and more substantial character. Col. O. cordially agreed with us that, grant ing for the sake of the argument, that our iiifornifmt was in error, lie merit ed iiy auok vituperation, as the do! - iug'timbers, will ell lie acknowledges left the work, might have given rea sonable grounds for li is belief. The brave old soldier regretted that he hud been made to appear before the public in such a position ; "for,” said lie, “if my honor was assailed, I never would go into newspaper controversy to profoA'lf, Blit would have sought redress through the channels open to gontleimhi: 'The remarks T made to the .Knrprirrr wore harsh, but 1 never intended to lie placed before the pnl>- lie as using snob language us a de fence of my character.’’ These true words were spoken by the silver haired heitt, and wo fflve them in jus tice to a brave man.

To tlpr Jtdifor nf the Daily Timex, Co tninbiix. Geo : The statement In your issue of 17th Inst,, concerning offer of steamboat by Central It. R. Cos., without charges is not to. be denied. You ask why the offer was not accepted? Permit mo most l’OKiiectfiilly to answer tho question. The boat was offered without charges, on condition thut it should he returned to the Company, ill the same efficiency and condition, as it was delivered to the United States Engineer Department, Would you, Mr. Editor, accept such an offer, and make yourself responsible for dam ages done, and maybe loss of bout, if happen, and pay for ? I was sent to Columbus to ascer tain, whether the Company would ex cept payment for services of their bout, and at what price ? Captain B. J. Whiteside accepted the proposal, and fixed the price for hired boat at .*) per diem, the Coni|my to repair all damages. By authority from U. 8. Chief of Engineers, tho oiler was accepted, and I was ordered to commence work. The permanent improvement of Chattahoochee, Apalachicola, and Flint rivers, will occupy nearly three years to accomplish, as the work can only be perfOrmfd during the low wat/T, and It lasts about eight months. The expenses for hired boat, dur ing (lie working term uf eight months, would be 245 days at S2O per diem, $4,000 a year, or #14,700 for three years. Assuming, that the boat Clara cost SIO,OOO, the gatn in Ihvor of United Htutes wmfld he $4,- Tno, and in the end of work, the boat will lie perhaps useful for other work. Be kind enough, Mr. Editor,to have a little patience, until time of resum ing the work next, Hprlng, and if I will he ordered to resume the work, 1 hope you will be kind enough, with other scion title and intelligent gen tlemen to lns|ieet personally, and judge impartially the work perform ed, and uncording to its result and merit, form jour opinion. Will you be kind enough to ex amine yourself, the boat Clara. She is lying at Columbus ut present, and I hope you will change your opinion in the mutter. I am, Mr. Editor, Your most respectfully Obedient servant, H. Oladowski. Col. Oladowskl meets the question of economy and judgment in tho pur chase of the steamer Clara, in a dig nified and gentlemanly manner, which commands our respect taking no issue on the right of a free discussion of public expenditures. ■Admitting that the vessel is sea worthy, and fully worth the money paid for it, should not the title vest iu such a manner as would secure to our river improvement its entire ben efit, and not in such a tvay as makes it liable to be carried off at any time by the Government for other work, thereby lessening tlie appropriation to the extent of the Clara’s value. Asa reward to those who have read us thus far, wo offbr tlie following, by way of amusement. The Enquirer, of the loth inst., says: "Everybody who has read the luujuirt r “for the Inat year. Including the Ixirrow “ers, Is aware of the manner tn wlilrh the “(hivernment appropriation was obtained "for our river, if we were particularly "vain, we might prove beyond tlie possl "bility of dispute, to even the smallest "pettifogger tnColundais and there are a few here the prominent part which this “journal took hi tho matter from the llrst "to last, and which it exorcises now ill the "smile direetion." ’ Those who are familial with the efforts for our river improvement must smile, when they hear it insisted that the tiles of the "Enquiri r for the lust year" compass the history of the work, at the culmination of which the Enquirer was represented, with the other worthy representatives of Columbus, and the Hon. H. R. Harris. In 1870 the City Council had the mat ter under advisement, and a commit tee from that body, acting with a committee from the Board of Trade, got up the statistics. We do not be | liove that tlie Enquirer, were it better ■ informed, would detract from tlie un ceasing efforts of its members. Es pecially does tho city owe the glut I j tude for getting this appropriation to j Mr. H. 8. Estes, who prepared the statistics, and long before the Enquir j or-. Sim delighted the city with its np- I poaranco, secured by his individual efforts, an appropriation of four thousand dollars to be expended iu a survey, preliminary to asking the llnal appropriation. We would not in the slightest detract from the effi cient aid rendered by the Commission of the city in securing tho appropria tion, hut that the Enquirer was the father of all this good, excites our Haibles. ! The policy of tiie Government in i t'urcliasing the steamer Clara is open , to objection, hut at present \yo refrain I from all comment. The toilr of the jetty to South America, via Apalachi cola and Cuba, can only be settled ! upon the subsiding of the waters of ! the Chattahoochee. • ♦ • The death of Colonel diaries F. Goode, of Houston county, is un ! nounoed. Like that of the lamented : Garnett McMillan, it will be received j by the people of Georgia with feelings of profound sorrow. He was one of I tin' most brilliant orators in the State. He made a good soldier, and did gal lant service in the Held. Says the Marietta Journal: Ac worth last Haturdnv elected a “dry" municipal ticket. We learn legal au thority lias closed whiskey but of Powder Springs. The. law prohibits the sale of the "ardent” nearer than one mile of Smyrna, mid there is not a bur room in Boswell.

S()*'Clal Corrt’MjH•mil-lieu Daily Timkm-) Atlanta, January I<>, 1575. Nothing of general Importance lias been done or liuppeiicd hero since iny last. The sunshine of yesterday was succeeded to-day by cold, cloudy weather, threatening rain or snow. Forty-nine bills liave already been introduced in the Senate, and sixty eight in the House—a few of general importance, inuny with hut little merit. Tho Usury law is receiving j due attention ; the Convention ques tion the same, and many sections of] the new Code are sought to he alter- 1 ed, with usual noeomi>animeut of lo cal wants, Peterson Thwoutt, Esq., comes to the front to-day in a circular to the members, strongly supiorted by Gen. Toombs, ex-Judges Worrill, Cole, Floyd, Fleming, R. H. Clark, Montgomery, and Judge H. V. John son, and Hon. J. A. Campbell. It is a strong document, and will consider ably add to the probability of favor- j able legislation for Col. Thweatt. A petition is iu circulation request ing Hon. B, H. Hill to address the members of the Legislature and citi-! zens, and as the Hon. B. H. seldom or never declines, it is probable thut he j will si leak early next week, and what- ■ ever may ho suid otherwise of Mr. Hill, he Is certainly the most effective speaker in the -State, and his address will, on such an occasion, detract nothing from his reputation. Gen. Toombs’ friends will likely also call out the “thunderer” during the same week. Many expressions of regret were heard this morning on the announce ment of the death of two of Georgia’s most gifted young men -McMillan and Goode—each of whom made rep utation in the Legislature two ses sions ago. Mr. Hill would likely be the succes sor of McMillan In Congress, but for tin: fact that since the nomination he is understood to have jiermanently removed his residence to this city, and is, therefore, outside of the Ninth (McMillan's) District. It does seem that the Honorable gentleman’s spoon Is always “bottom up.” The standing committees have not yet been announced in the House. It Kikes time and considerable work to properly arrange the one hundred and seventy-live members on commit tees. It is generally conceded, how ever, that Gen. Lawton, of Chatham, will be the leader in that body, which Is altogether a strong one. Hfieuker Hardeman tills tho chair gracefully; is easy and quick in his rulings, and shows the familiarity which past ox i jierioneo has given him with his du ties. Your immediate Representatives are well located. Mr. Crawford is at a private house (Mrs. -Sikes.); Mr. Grimes at the Kimball House, and Judge‘Williams at the National Ho-1 tel. Air.

The Covington Star calls the weather they an- having in that sec tion “Another Northern aggression.” Harris announces that Col. Johan nes B. Gormanne is editing a grist mill. He has built anew dam. The death of Mr. McMillan was barely announced before certain it pers commenced trying to crowd Ben. Hill iqm the people of the Ninth District. Next Monday, Gen. Young will introduce a bill to appropriate #12,- 000 for the improvement of the Con asauga mid Coosawotte rivers in the State of Georgia.

Every member of tlie Committee is requested to be- present. —Some time ago mention was made iu the Montgomery Adrertixer ol the arrest of Mr. C. E. Goodwyn and sev eral other citizens of Eufaula, on charge of tin- murder of a negro nam ed Miles Colquitt. The Aiteertiser learns from citizens of Barbour coun ty that men went before the Unites! States Grand Jury and swore jxesi t-ively that Goodwi ll was tlie man i who killed Colquitt. At least he was indicted on the- charge. When the Investigating Committee was iu Eufaula a few days ago, Mr. Good wyn was called before them aenl among other questions aski*d him by the Radicals of the Committee was, ! whether or not, there was an Indict-! j incut against him for murder. Mr. Goodwin replied that then- was, and said thit if the Coinmhtu would al low him to do so, he would bring be fore them Miles Colquitt, tho negro for whose murder he was Indicted. Permission was granted and In brought in Miles who was subjected to a long examination, the purport of which has not transpired. If this be 6, It will be a hard mutter to con vict Mr. Good wvn of the murder of | Miles Colquitt.

The official edict - of His Majesty will probably be is sued to-morrow, or as soon thereafter as possible.” Murdi Gras occurs this year on the 9th of February. Mont gomery pro|loses to do the occasion i justice. ! A correspondent of the Nashville Winner eloquently says: “The last, guns of the 'lest, cause’ | j were iireil by Gen.
