They donned their ml shirts and marched in gay procession through the city, carrying with them their trusty engine, and “keeping time in a sort of music rhyme to the tintinnabu lations" of fife aud drum. Disregarding the mud ami slush, they marched through all the principal streets, followed by a miniature array of little negroes. If you want to make a darkey supremely happy, just put a red shirt on him, put him In frout of a fire engine and behind a bass drum.

This tribunal did not adjourn in honor of tho hallowed 22d. On the contrary, the liveliest session jof the month was held that day. A white man, who ought to have known better, was charged with "cussing out” a friend on general princi ples, and fined *5. The fine was after wards made *2.30, In consideration of mit igating circumstances. John Gilmer, colored, was proven to have been very disorderly and 111-behaved. He was fined *3. Declining to advance this amount, he was sent to the guard-house for five days. Aaron Green and Charles Hough were both accused of disorderly conduct. Aarou came out with flying colors, but Charles became quite confused in Ids mazy proof of Innocence, and was fined $2.50. John Wesley, the darkey who stole the plank from the bridge on Mclntosh street, was bound over in the sum of S3O, to ap pear at tho County Court.

Nobby styles of Hats just received at j Yonge’s Hat Store. Delayed .JuMlce, On Monday, Tom Marshall, a well known negro thief, was examined before j Justice McOahey, on charge of a little ! mischief which he did nearly a year ago. In the Spring of 1874, he stole a large j number of chickens from Mr. P. S. Brad ford. He sold most of them to Mr. A. V. | Boatrito. The officers of the law got on Tom’s track and were about to capture him, when he escaped from the city aud | made his way to Macon, He soon got into mischief at his new house and served quite a term up-u tiie chain gang of that city. He recently got through his ; troubles there and returned to Columbus, j The policemen had not forgotten tho un- I dent feud, arid on Sumlay Policemen Me | Each ran and Robart-s arrested Tom for | his chicken stealing.

After hearing the evidence, his Honor : required a SSO boud for Tom's appearenc*' at the County Court, Tho boud was not given and the prisoner was sent to jail. ! It has been said that “murder will out. i This maxim is generally true,and judging from tho said experience of Tom Marshall, we.should think that the same thing; couid be affirmed of chicken stealing.

On Monday a rather important change j took place iu the arrangement of the city j police.

There is jx*rhaps no minister in the Methodist denomination, and we might possibly go farther without fear of contra diction, and say in any Christian denomi nation, that can show a more serviceable, devoted and brilliant record, for the pe riod, than the Rev. A. M. Wynn, pastor of Wesley Church, of this city. We had a call from him on Saturday last, when he informed us that that day was the anniversary of his silver wedding, being twenty-five years married. He had boon engaged in the ministry for the past twenty-seven years, ami during the whole of that time he has never failed to fill his pulpit two Sabbaths in suee'es sion, no matter what the circumstances; were that surrounded him. He has til led his place when he was scarcely able to stand; has travelled through wind and rain, cold and heat, during this long pe riod of his ministerial service, and hue never asked for, nor had, two weeks vaen tion during the time. The head hof this beloved divine who lias endeared himself to our people of .-vo , rv denomination, has been so feeblo for i the past three or four weeks, that the j memrtrs of his congregation have pre ) vailed upon him to take a two weeks vam- I t-ion and seek recreation in Florida.

Tiie Presbyterian church was tilled on Sunday afternoon, with the friends of the deceased Mrs. Francis Fontaine. The fu- j neral services were conducted by Rev. J. H.

Perhaps we have not the best cause to love i our present Government with the tender j ami ardent affection which characterized | our forefathers, but it seems that there is | still among our people some love and re- I speet for the birthday of one whom all good men admire and venerate. Tin* ob -1 servance of the Twenty-Second* was. !n- I deed, pretty general In the city. A large I number of our people did not pursue their ! regular avocations in the afternoon, while | bankers, editors, printers, and all other | gentlemen of leisure and dignity, did no ! tiling during the whole day except, stand I upon the corners and pity the poor, <>p j pressed mortals who are obliged to work j all the time. In the afternoon the fair sex | were out in force. The streets presented ! a gayer appearance than they have for months, and in some parts of the city the j sidewalks were almost blocked up with • j>eople. i Both the military companies were out i in their new and dashing uniforms. The Columbus Guards, under command of ' Capt. Wm. S. Shepherd, numbered about ; thirty men, rank and file. Tlielr uniform is of rich dark blue dotii, trimmed with i gold, and presented a fine appearance. I The company halted in front of Moore’s ! Art Gallery to h&ve its photograph taken. | In the view of the artist and so many fair | spectators their expression was fine, and j the picture will doubtless be good. ! The City Light Guards were commanded | by Capt. W. A. Little, and numbered about I thirty-six men, rank and lito. They have lan elegant uniform, and are certainly a ' soldierly body of men. Their appearance was highly complimented on all sides. Both companies paraded the streets, and were, of course, the centre of attraction. We are proud that Columbus j two such gallant and handsome military I oompanics. At night the bull of the City Light Guards, to which the Columbus Guards I and the friends of the company were in , vited, was largely attended. The dancing ! was kept up until a late hour, ami the whole affair passed off as “merry as a marriage bell.” Both uniforms looked brilliant by gas-light, and w hen the gal lant soldier boys walked proudly over tiie floor beside the fair ones of our city, we could not but admire the excellence of j beauty and chivalry. The day passed off ! nicely, and it was very proper that it I should be closed by so pleasant an enter | tainment as the gallant City Lights pro- I pared for their guests. Chim h Bubbery. On Sunday we gave an account of a j daring robbery of the basement or lec ture room of St. Paul’s Church, which took j place last Friday night. It seems that the j cupidity of tiie church robbers was not | satisfied with this ravage. Early Satur day night the lecture room was again broken open and a heavier haul than tiie former made upon it. A fine sewing ma ! chine, which U‘longed to Mrs. Dr. Wood | ruff, ami which was valued at SIOO, was | taken away. Quite an amount of material I upon which the ladies had been at work, was also taken.
