THE WOUNDS VERY PAINFUL, BUT NOT SERIOUS. Yesterday an altercation took place in the rear of the Cottage Baloon between Mr. J. T. Holland and Dr. D. W. Johnson, which resulted In the cutting of tho latter by the former In four places. Two of the wounds were made In the side of the neck, one two Inches in length and the other three. There was a slight gash between tho eyes, on tho nose, and a cut In the arm. Wo made every effort to get at tho full particulars, but found that tho difficulty had been so sudden and unexpected, that little was said or done by either party. Tho whole affair will undergo judicial Investigation, and wo thorofore await tho developments ; especially as the state ments were contradictory, nnd so little seems to be known In regard to tho matter. Mr. Holland wns arrested by Deputy Sheriff Colbert. No woupons were found on him, or In tho room where the difficulty occurred. Dr. Johnson was taken homo, and Is well carod for by Drs. Stanford, Mason and Grimes. From them wo learn his wounds are not very serious. HBOWIF.VII.LE BAPTIST CHURCH'. CHRISTMAS TREE FOB THE SUNDAY SCHOOL FRIDAY NIGHT. 1.

During Saturday and Sunday an extra force of policemen were addod to the pres ent force, In order to prevent any disturb ances. The;old police dubbed them “con scripts," and they were so designated. They were assigned with an old member of the force to walk them. Saturday night after every thing was quiet, aoouplo of the old polico got a boy to bring the nows of a riot up In the northern liberties. Of course they started, running all the while, nnd telling the “conscript the dan ger ahead. There was no row, aid they (loublfe quicked him back to town to stop a supposed row. Each squad seems to have had a good deal of fun out of their conscript. Huyoi*’* iCourt Teterdny. A lively Uttlo court was hold by tho Mayor yesterday nnd a number of offend ers broughtjup to recelvo their reward. Tho first was Jones Jewal, who was ac cused of taking too much crooked on Saturday. For this ho was required to leave $5 and cost. rhtllpTOaks.’wasjthe next in order, and tho evidence showed Ahut Phil would be a confirmed disorder, if ho did not mind his ways. This he concluded to do. If the Mayor would not.fino film more than $5 and cost. Edmond Taylor was as', straight as a fish hook he said, and the people ho stum bled over concluded he was correct. Tho Mayor must have agreed with them, for he required Ed to leave the city $5 and cost, or his presence for fivo days. He made his ante g<xxl. James Hanby It appears “in vino" on Saturday and was a little too "in veritas” to bo altogether agreeable. In considera tion that he would drop a five dollar Wil liam In tho city Treasury ho was allowed to go home. Richard Jeter Was a little two crooked to ever tell what he hod been doing, or what ho would db. Ho was dropped into the guard house to 000 l off for the jiext five days.

THE TIMES: TUESDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 28, 18/5. < JIKINTMAN MAY. INCIDENTS, AMUSEMENTS, <fcC„ Ac. Christinas was lively for some and very ( dull for others. Christmas is a landmark jln the Journey of life. Those that have Il>oen here a long time look upon (,'hrist ! mas as compared to months, while the young ones and children think them fur apart. Tho most pleasant memories of childhood's recollections date back to Christmases years ago. So on this last Christmas, many children will data their recollections, and though there was not a superabundance of toys sold, yet we pre sume ull bail a remembrance in some shape or other. Trade on Christmas day was pretty good, tho toy stores and confectioners doing the best business. The book stores seemed to drive a line trade in soiling standard and juvenile books. DURING THE DAY the boys had their fun. Several hundred horns followed by an equal number of boys, kept up an Incessant blowing to the amusement of themselves only. Fire crackers seemed to be scarce, and only oc casionally would you hear a whole bunch turned loose at one time. THE FANTASTIUB turned out about two o'clock. The show was a very poor one in numbers, and tho characters did not soom to represent any thing especial. They rode around the streets followod by a large erowd, and some of them looked comical enough. REFRESHMENTS were the order of tho day, and Babcock's crooked seemed to have a gixxl sale. Sev eral were rathe" too straight not to have been crooked a little, though a few took on more than they could navigate well. AT NIGHT a few raffles, and a few crackers and a limited display of lire works closed the day. At twelve o’clock the streets were quiet, and those that could not find the way their little bods wore helped to a dry goods box, or tho soft side of a brick. Hurrah fpr Christmas and San ta Clause! Mite Society Kcclhw. The young folks’ Mite Society met last oveniug at the residence of Air. William Perry. There was a large attendance and allseomedto enjoy themselves. The mu sic was superb. Among those present wo noticed the charming Miss L——c J n, of North Georgia. Tho next meeting of tho Society will be held at Col. Burts' residence, and wo advise those who wish to spend a pleasant even ing to attend nttoat time. Meath of 11. 11. tiuwley. Sunday afternoon ut six o'clock, Mr. D. D. Gawley died at his room in this city. Mr. Gawley was the senior partner of the wholesale dry gtxxls house of Gawley Jk Lewis. Mr. Gawley moved to Columbus from Stewart county just after tho war nnd engaged in the business of retailing dry goods. From that tho firm of Gawley A Lewis rose rapidly In public favor, and soon were possessed of large capital and trade. He was unmarried and wo learn had only a sister anil nephew, Mr. xtevvis of tho lirir. He was sick for a very short time. We presume his age was about for ty years. He was an honorary member of the City Light Guards, and was yester day followod to the grave by an escort from that company, under command of Lieut. Brooks. Messrs. W. L. Tillman, Wm. Watt, f. C. Andrews, Jno. McNeill, A. F Clements and T. J. Hines were pall bearers. Rev. It. J. Corley performed the funeral services. Remember Thla.

Look out for the pha backs—a young lady sat In a gentleman’s lap the other and a !pin stuck in his leg, und from it he is quite sick, and threatened with the lock jaw. Hot “Moody and Sanke.y” will soon be a popular drink. It takes the place of “Tom and Jerry.’’ One of the most appropriate pres ents made during Christmas, was that a Une bible was given to a youug druggist. Tho gentleman who received tho sad letter on Christmas day is sad indeed. His mother-in-law found tho letter in his pocket, when she helped him to bed Saturday night. Many a woman who continually abuses her husband won’t let any body else do it. She thinks it such a luxury that she needs must monopo lile it. Crooked whiskey stands no chance against Columbus. Not one of them was grazed, until they ordered a dozen or so of Carte Blanco. The young men who tried to learn their horses to stand tire crackers, are nearly as bad off as the buggy— mending slowly. Three women at Lawrence,Kansas, claim the same baby and are having a law suit over it. Croup, measels and colic must be scarce in that town. It is now about the tim# of the year to go to your wife, or to your sweet heart and swear not to take a drink for one year, and then break it early in January. The man who leaves the door open in winter is the same person who in variably closes it in summer.' Ar rangements are now being perfected whereby a bounty will be paid for his scalp. Christmas was not such a Christ inas as wo have seen. It lacked the usual fights and fireworks. Just now—this week- the average wife wovldn’t jaw back under any consideration. She is looking for thut silk dress, you know. Now is thetimo to advertise your business. If you want to begin the year right bring your advertisements around to the Times’ office and have them inserted in apaper, pop ular with ull classes, and more gen erally read lhau uny daily In this section. One of the best guides at Niagara Falls has been sent to jail for two months, and lie asks the public to keep away until his terms of sentence expires. A deserted husband in Baltimore advertises bis wife as having left his bed arid hoard, and offers a reward of SSO to any white man who will mar ry her and take her to California. “Take mourning for divorce,” is the latest effusion of a husband who committed suieido after being sued by his wife for a release from the bonds of matrimony. The reduction of the wages of tele graph operators is not )>artieularly electrifying to them. The magnet draws the wrong way. Ninety-nine years in the peniten tiary is what a Missouri murderer got. One year more would have made his case hopeless.

Many trains will come und go without regard to you. You came here a stranger, thinking to settle in Detroit—in the only city in the world where a grocer will give you a box of soap if you hint to him that he puts sand in his sugar. You lied to people, had a light in a street car, got drunk, and the way you be came a settler was to settle down in the mud.” “I’ll give a million dollars to get out of this?” exclaimed tho prisoner. “I don’t doubt it, Mr. Wallace, but tho die is cast—the mould is prepared —the silver cord is loosened, and you go up for thirty days.” “Oh! Whack!

Messrs. Brailfield <k Cb.|; Gentlemen—You will please ship us an other supply of your invaluable F'emale Regulator, and forward bill by mail. We are happy to state that this remedy gives better satisfaction than any article we sell. We have been selling it since 1868, lynd witnessed many remarkable cures by it. Among others, there was a lady friend of ours who was sallow and sickly until she was twenty-six years old, when she was married. Her husband lived two years and died. She continued in bail health; in fact, she has never been what a woman ought to bo. A few months after the death of her husband she saw your advertisement, und came to our store and bought a bottle of Regula tor from us, and took it according todi- 1 rertions. It has cured her sound and well, brought her regular monthly peri ods on, and to-day she is a hearty, bloom ing widow—with the use of but two bot tles of ynur Regulator, costing her only three dollars, when she had tried several physicians and spent a great deal of money without any benefit.
