The communication in these columns which urge* the necessity of a central de pot deserves the careful perusal of all. The present arhingemont subjects every body to a groat inconvenience and, if pos sible, should be abolished. The good re sults which would accrue if the wish of a large majority of our citizens was com plied with, and a central depot immediate ly established, are too numerous to bo specified. True, the change would pro duce temporary inconvenience and cost a considerable amount, but it maybe wisely HMkcd if the tho sum sufficient to accom plish this change could be invested more profitably to the city, or in a manner which would so increase the pleasure and conve nience of the citizens.

The attendance yesterday at his Honor’s Court was small, and tho interest in the proceedings very lax. Only one came up for trial. Nat Peabody and Jane Thorn ton were charged with disorderly conduct on Wednesday last. The evidence elearly showed that Jane had no part in the mis chief, and that her fair name had boon un justly sullied. When the Court dismissed her, she bowed gracefully and departed { with all tho modesty of female excellence and all the pride of conscious triumph. But Nat was not allowed to participate In the victory of innocence. Nat had whip ped his daughter and had boon exceed ingly disorderly, and the Court was well aware of the fact, so he was mulcted in the sum of $.. Nat plainly told the Court that ho had no financial resources, and could not respond to its call. It was therefore left to Nat’s wise discretion whether he would choose the solitary con finement of a dark and dreary dungeon or be arrayed in striped apparel and enjoy the sunlight and breeze, while he labored on the thoroughfares of the city. The latter position seemed to suit tin* gentle man. Here much to our regret, the Court adjourned.

Yesterday morning, about half past three o'clock, Policemen John St. Clair and Whit Smith wore out about tho foot of Wynn’s hill, when they begun to notice a suspic ious looking negro. Satisfied that he was not exactly all right they arrest ed him and searched his person. He hud been in their charge for some time and they were sit ting in a house, when he sud denly darted out of t he back door and was gone in on instant. Policeman St. Clair fired at him, and both the officers chased him all about the premises, once in a while getting an opportunity to shoot at his val uable self. They chased him for some distance and he seemed to have finally es caped them. They then walked back a little way and stopped under some trees to rest. They had no idea of getting on track of their prey again, when suddenly tin* negro came upon them. He was in a very short distance of them. The officers fired two or three shots apiece at him. Policeman Smith is very certain that he hit him once. The chase then commenced again in earnest, but resulted us it had be fore. The officers have since learned that this negro is an escaped convict from Ala bama. A year or two ago, he was sent to the i>enltontiary for fifteen years, from Eu faula. It was not known before tho occur rence last night, that he was in the city. His name is John Reid, and he Is very well known in these parts. He was once asso ciate! with a negro named Monroe Jackson -who was caught by our policemen, and carried to Eufaula where he got a benefit of twenty-two years in the penitentiary, for burglary and attempt to murder. John Reid will be captured yet by our vigilant officers and sent back to the dismal home whence ho has Hod. By selling good g<xxls and selling goods cheap, Yongo has built up the largest Hat business ever done in Columbus. I.unntlc. Alley Randolph, a colored woman, whose mind has been in an unhealthy condition for the past eighteen months, was tried before Judge F. M. Brooks, the Ordinry of this county, for lunacy, on yesterday. The following jury was ompannellod and tried the case. J. W. Pitts, M. I).. J. T. Daniel, G. W. Shepherd, L. G. Loeb, Wolf Moses, L. I. Harvey, J. F. Adams, li. J. Barbee, O. L. Peacock. W.H. Newsom, and L. McMichaol. Dr. Pitts conducted the examination and it was clearly shown that the woman was a lunatic. She was so ad judged by the jury. She is still at her home in this city. A letter has been written to I>r. Green, at the Asylum, asking him if there is any vacan cy. The Asylum is said to lx* very full just now. Twelve lunatics were sent there from this count y last year. The institu tion is said to* be in good order, and the j treatment of patients very successful. | A beautiful line of Hamburg Edgings i and Insortings, at prices to suit the pur | chaser, at ! feb!4 d&wtf .T. J. WHTTTLE’s. Our tiliont. Columbiu* is a successful city. Every thing begun here seems to flourish and meet with general approbation. Wo pros per in material things, and our recent suc cessful ghost proves that in things spirit ual wo are far from a failure. Wo have an active, hard working, respectable ghost, and we are glad of it. What if a few of our people have been a Uttlo excited by the appearance of this strange visitor? W hat If an honorable member of our City Coun cil is said to have oncountered it and come off from the conflict completely vanquish ed? What are all those little inconve niences compared to the vast amount of good this ghostly inhabitant has brought us? Other towns have tried this ghost sensa tion, but we arc happy to state that it was reserved for us to make tho first success in this line. Macon once had a ghost, but ho fled in two nights. Atlanta has had six, but their lives were short and inglorious. Our ghost is a genius of his kind. He be gun bis course with a brilliant ‘■ally, and has maintained his reputation steadily. He has defied nil attempts at private in terviews, and comos out on tho horrified gaze of the public only when it pleases his ghostly dignity. The press of the State contain very flattering notices of his pres ence in the city, and a re evidently attempt ing to deprive us of his cheering presence. The attempt is vuin. His affections are fixed, and as long as he continues a ghost will stalk in all his terrible grandeur along our streets at midnight’s solemn hour. The editor of the Hamilton Visitor is ab- j solutely incredulous of the existence of j our ghost, and says that all this excite- 1 inent lias been caused by frost. Could ! anything be more grossly practical or! more ridiculously absurd. If that man [ had one particle of poetic imagination, he j would scorn any such supposition. Wo | art) indignant that such a reflection should | be cost upon an institution of our loved | city. If the man who dares to write such i things ever sets his foot within these cor-; porate limits, we hope our ghost will be ■ richly revenged upon him. He ought to catch that fellow In his long arms and; waltz up and down the river bank with him until he will swear that he will write j no more naughty things, and ever show a proper respect for the feelings and reputa tion of a well-bred ghost.

One of Columbus’ many attractions is Yonge’s Hat Emporium. Cords upon cords of drift wood floated down the river yesterday. Trade was dull and money a little scarcer than ever yesterday. Strangers visiting the city should not fail to visit Yonge's Hat Store. The favorite slang phrase with the j youth now is, “Fall on yourself!” Jake Burrus is improving the condition j of the sidewalk in front of his store. Yesterday was the most beautiful that' has smiled on this weary world for a long time. If our river would only retain its pres ent dimensions, we would have a respect able stream. The Macon girls have adopted the French style of kissing. Tho effect is said to be pleasant.

Now' it is said that throe highly resided-! ed bachelors, who live ih this city, have ! determined to cross over the river and be j free from tho vexations of that tyranny! which is attempted upon them. Young ladies have no idea what a beau tiful operation printing is. The Times office has its doors ever flung wide open, and no sweeter music could greet our ears than the gentle foot-falls of “creation's idols.” Almost every afternoon some sentimen tal youth strays with her whom he most admires along the classic banks of the Chattahoochee, and spends the moments in saving sweet things in general, and occasionally moralizing on the ruins of time. * The whole State of Alabama is now strutting in a straight jacket. Deputy Marshals are now hidden behind every tree and In every gully, and if a fellow turns up his nose at a carpet-bagger, his scalp is in danger. A recent effort of a member of the Co lumbus Debating Society is described by an admiring friend as “a grand conglom eration of eloquence, wit, pathos, and po etry ; convincing in particular, and over powering in general!” A friend of ours, who possesses both age and experience, says he would just like to getaehaneetote.il “Thco” what the old fellow thinks of a young man who stays after midnight. “Theo," you are in debted to us, we did not go back on you. The peculiar notions associated with Saturday night, are, in a great degree, the result of the Slave system. It was for merly a jubilee night for darkies, and re spectable people remained close at home. The effects of tills habit have nearly died away now, and much visiting is done upon the last night of the week. Wo have an unmarried male friend, of thirty, who is righteously Indignant at the passage of the outrageous law which taxes bachelors. Ho grows warm whenever it is mentioned to him, and though he is a member of the church, just swears he will not pay any such unjust tribute; says he will defy the authorities, or lot his last pair of kid gloves and all his pump boots l>e sold, or emigrate to Utah, or become a Catholic priest, or even go so far as to marry, before he will submit to what lie terms “and and foolishness.” We always admired pluck.
