hear that the proposition to take the pres

not be apt to bo adopted, as there is some
opposition to it. It is probable that the
room now used by tho courts will bo refit
ted and improved. The vault which is in

to improve the building In some way, and

The river is up higher than it has boon

Such heavy falls of rain aro rare, even at

great swell in the river Is deleterious to

provo disastrous to the manufacturing as

Vestortliiy a man who claims to be an
Englishman, and who Is staying with the
party of Gypsies who are now encamped
near our city, was fotuid on the streets in
• very drunken condition, and was taken
Into custody by a policeman. He was car
ried to the guard-house and put away for
the Mayor's Court this morning. He grew
quite furious after his imprisonment, and
commenced to vent his spleen iu a very
noisy manner, ills anathemas against
the condition of his cell and his
threats against those who placed him
there were furious. He took ills stand at
tbe grated windows and appealed to every
passer-by for assistance. At one time
quite a crowd of darkies collected to hear
his passionate eloquence. He continued
his eriee for hours, and would probably
have gone on Indefinitely had not a stern
officer of the law informed him that it
would not be generally healthy for him to
continue his plaintive wails.

If any hxjol event of the least impor
tance transpired yesterday we would like
to know It, oven at this late day. Wo verily
believe the people of this city are getting
better, and If tho condition of the public
morals may bo estimated by the visible
infringements of the law, they were very
righteous yesterday. Though the day was
cold and damp, wo saw not a singlo man
win >so feet were tangled. Nobcxly tried to
sottlo an ancient feud; nobody gave vent
to a sudden heat of passion, or did any
thing desperate. Everything moved on
with a monotony exceedingly pleasant to
tlie philanthropist, but utterly provoking
to a local reporter. If this state of affairs
continues we have no idea what will come
to pass. The police focco will oortulnly
suffer reduction, and enthusiasm will ut
terly perish among the people. Don't let
to-day bo another period of dullness and
monotony. Let somebcsly go in for a little
fun, no matter of what kind. He who
varies this ceaseless routine of local affairs
will cause tho city to wear anew aspect,
and deserve tho gratitude of a certain
insignificant part of this glorious com
monwealth.

Xew Military Company.
It is rumored that some of our martial i
spirited youths will soon organize anew
military company in this city, Into which
they will throw all their ardor, and of
whose success, if the attempt is made,
there can bo no doubt. The company will
be composed of very young men, and such
a tiling as a married man will be utterly
unknown to its ranks. Some of those who
head the movement, favor the trying of
any member of tho company who shall
take unto himself a rib, for the serious
crime of desertion. There is plenty of ma
terial in this city to form a lino company,
and we are anxious to see the proposition
succeed. Young men make tho very best
of volunteer soldiers. They are more
easily disciplined than those of mature
years, and they throw into their military
practice tho liniietuoeity and ardor of
their youthful spirits. The finest vete
rans in the world are the men who under
go thoiough military trailing while
young. Let the boys who are anxious to
raise anew company in this city, go to
work with zimil and determination, and a
failure will bo almost Impossible.

M ayor’k Court.
His Honor had a little Court yesterday.
The attendance was small and the enthu
siasm meagre. Fayette Johnson, Edward
Jackson and Kit Brown, an exceedingly
dark trio, wore arraigned for a violation
of the city ordinance, which relates to the
use of profane language. They had l>ecn
saying things which ought never to be
hoard on tho streets of a respectable city,
and they won* brought up to receive their
just condemnation. Tho witnesses of this
unbecoming language were not present,
and the case was therefore postponed until
to-morrow.

The other day he reveled too far and was
caught in tho midst of a wild orgy by a
watchful officer. The case was so plain
that tho dignity of the city could only bo
restored by $7.50. “The rest is silence.”

Gypsies.
Gypsies arc curious folks. Nobody has
read tho history of their origin, and no
man can tel! the objoct of their existence.
Thoy rovo about from pillar to i>oat and
are literally the vagabonds of the oarth.
Laws against their presence have been
enacted by almost every civilized nation,
and tho persecutions which have boon
heaped upon thorn have been almost as
varied and cruel as the scattered tribes of
Israel have experienced. Thoy seem to live
and pass through tho world without the
slightest effoefc upon politics or morals.
They aro banded closer together than the
members of any mystic brotherhood, and
speak a language which dolies the analy
sis of tho most skilled philologist. Their
habits are copied from ho models, and,
luckily for the world, have no Imitations.
Reared in a faith whose foundation princi
ples are antagonistic to civilization and
Christianity, they still possess some traits
of character worthy the imitation or a
more enlightened society. Superstitious
and ignorant as they are, they are often
versed in the departments of history, phi
losophy, and even the fine arts. Their i>or
ceptive faculties are remarkably line, and
tho wide-spread belief that they possess
the power of reading future events may
lw due to this excellence. They are unsur
passed in sagacity and cunning, and are
often possessed of the most dauntless
courage. That they are not dinstitute of
imaginative power is proven by the le
gends which refer to their history and an
cestors, and with which they are all ac
quainted. Many of these wild tales com
mommorate deeds worthy of a more last
ing memorial, and they are often remark
able examples of narrative excellence and
rude poetic beauty. Those legends are, In
some respects, similar to those in which
the, melody of the Indian tongue is so often
displayed.
It is strange how many erroneous opin
ions aro In existence concerning the char
acter and habits of these roving bands.
By those who are acquainted with their
manners and behavior thoy are considerd
to bo destitute of all that is good and pos
sessed of totally depraved natures. All
who have studied the history and charac
ter of these Gypsie bands, pronounce this
opinion erroneous. Their ideas of moral
rectitude are, undoubtedly, at variance
with Christianity, yet they have a code of
honor among themselves to which they
adhere with religious iidelity. It is en
tirely wrong to supposo thoy are but a
little above tho level of the brute creation,
for men of extraordinary talents have
sometimes been found among these wild
bunds. Some of their legends point back
to the former presence of master minds
and noble spirits among them. It is a well
known fact that the immortal Bunyan was
of Gypsie origin, and many other men
who have sprung from this people have
held positions of trust and honor in soci
ety. Withal, the study of this strange
race, who in spite of persecution have pre
served the identity, and who do
so differently from the rest of mankind,
Is Interesting and instructive to every j
thoughtful man. Several treatises upon
their history and habits have recently j
boon written by profound thinkers. Their I
whole being seems wrapt in mystery, and j
about it there hangs Just enough of poetic j
uncertainty to make its study pleasing j
ami instructive.

The Flood.
The rains in Georgia and the neighbor
ing State® have been remarkably heavy
and general. In tlie northern portion of
our own State and in parts of Tennessee
the floods prevail to an alarming extent.
Mills and fences arc swept away by the
score, and tlie people have suffered great
loss. The devastation in Chattanooga is
terrible. Nearly the whole city is covered
with water. Houses are lx*ing washed
away and destroyed, and everything like
business is entirely suspended. The dan
ger to life is also very great, ami already
three or four persons have been drowned.
Want and distress is keenly felt, and that
whole section is suffering a groat calami
ty. The loss of property must be enor
mous, and tho subsequent amount of suf
fering will bo very great.
Those floods fall especially heavy on the
immediate vicinity in wkiah they happen,
but the whole country is more or loss af
fected bv them. The mails have been very
irregular for tlie past few days, and will
Ik* more so for several days to come. Tel
egraphic communication with some locali
ties has almost ceased, tho wires being
down in many places for a great distance.
Many portions of the Western A Atlantic
Railroad are completely washed away.
Travel is also seriously affected, as the
tracks and bridges of some of the princi
pal roods in the State have suffered great
ly. Tho worst of the deluge seems yet to
come. The country is already flooded and
the rains continue to pour. All that seems
left for those who arc the heaviest suffer
ers from these freshets is to be resigned to
what they cannot prevent and to trust in
a higher power than their own for rescue.

Von ih fid Desperudoc*.
The youth, George Fields, who was so
badly Injured in Girard on Tuesday, was
reported some better on yesterday. The
cause of the attack upon him and the
guilty parties have been discovered. Two
negro boys about sixteen years of age,
named Emauual Wright and Seaborn Ben
derfleld, were arrested on a charge of as
sault and battery and tried before Justice
Ryder. The evidence showed that they
contemplated a serious attack on the
wounded boy. They saw him paying
some money to a party in this city, and
followed him over into Girard. When ho
reached the deserted part of the town
they made the assault upon him. One of
them struck him a severe blow with a
rock just above his forehead. This was
hardly given before the other boy struck
him in the back of the head. This com
pletely prostrated tho boy, and the negroes
were about to commence a thorough
search of his person, but were frightened
by the approach of some men. It was
evidently the deliberate intention of the
little villains to rob young Fields, and it
seems that they were Indifferent as to
w hether they murdered him or not. Such
calculating and determinate malice should
receive the severest punishment of the
law, even though it be exhibited by mere
boys. Boys who are vicious make men
who are villains.
The preliminary examination took place
at the house of Mr. Fields, as the wounded
boy was unable to rise from his bod. A.
A. Dozier. Esq.* appeared for the prosecu
tion. After hearing all the evidence, Jus
tice Ryder required a bond of $2<X) apiece
from the prisoners for their appearance at
the Circuit Court. They were unable to
give this, and wore committed to jail.
Thus these malicious scamps are begin
ning to suffer for their malicious attack
upon an unoffending boy.

Why Will Ye Die?—Death, or what is
; worse, is the inevitable result of continued
1 suspension of the menstrual How. It is a
j condition which should not Ik* trilled with.
Immediate relief is the only safeguard
against constitutional ruin. In all cases
of suppression, suspension or other irreg
i ularitv of the "courses," Dr. J. Bradfield’s
Female Regulator is the only sure rerne
| dy. It arts by giving tone to the nervous
cent res, improving the blood, and determ
ining directly to the organs of menstrua
tion. It is a legitimate prescription, and
the most intelligent doctors use it. Pre
par'd by J. H. Brad field, druggist, Atlan
ta, Ga., $1 50 per bottle, and sold by re
j spectable druggists everywhere.

BrculjleUl d* Cb„ Atlanta, Ga.—Dear Sirs :
l tike pleasure in stating that I have used
for the last twenty years the medicine vou
are putting up, known as Dr. BradJuui’M
Female Regulator, and consider it the
best combination ever gotten together for
tho diseases for which it is recommended.
I have been familiar with the preparation
both as a practitioner of medicine and in
domestic practice, and can honestly say
that I consider it a boon to suffering fe
males, and can but hope that every lady
in our land, who may be suffering in any
way peculiar to their sex, may be able to
procure a bottle, and their sufferings may
not only Ik* relieved, but that they may Im*
restored to health and strength.
With my kindest regards,
I am. respectfully.

three physicians, with very little *i
