The Mayor hold Ids usual levee yester day, and aside from tho spectators, there were a goodly number of witnesses and several principals. Fannie Thomas was the first maiden that danced Into court, and answered the uhargo of a general drunk and much dis order. The proof was conclusive against Fannie, and it was evident that she had been on a general Christmas rampage, and to such an extent as required a lino of seven dollars and a half to soothe her troubled mind. She was soothed, and qui etly left that amount in the Imnds of the Marshal. Bob Pryor was up for lighting, lie had been limiting beyond a doubt, and for the amusement tic paid $5.00 and costs, or Ilvo days in the guard house. Chris Bailoy had been indulging a little, and focllng offended at some remarks made him, he assorted the power of his inusclo to the tune of two and a half. The Mayor then adjourned the meeting, and the Marshal and Clerk went off happy In the collection of "cost.” K|Uco|ul Fcallvul. Tho Episcopal Church hold their usual Christmas festival yesterday morning. The services wore opened in the church wl'h appropriate ceremonies, and after the close of tho Rector's discourse, the Sunday school scholars were marched Into tho school house, and the various presents that hung on the Christmas tree were distributed. The morning was highly enjoyed by those present, but not half so much as the poor orphans and the scholars generally of the school who enjoy odtbo good things that Santa Claus had hung upon the tree. The music was splendid, whilo the chil dren, though impatient, made good uso of their time in talking about what they ox pootod Santa Claus, to bring them. The festival was a groat success, and we loarned thoy cleared some money be sides what was given to tho poor. ’ River Xewi. The Julia arrived at 10 a.

FARM. Why N,'i*t Hat M ,**• I.lkr Itf A few days iee, In company with a party of gentlemen wo Visited the farm of str. Geo. W. Itadeliff, situated about three aid a half miles from the city. After a most elegant dinner, wo started out to walk over tho farm and look at the im provements of agriculture. Tho first thing that attracted our attention was tho sym metry and uniqueness of things, coupled with the economical improvements and oonvoiilendes of the place. Wo have not seen such a farm in a long time. Thccn liro place is fenced and ditched in the more modern style of farming, whilo the houses and barns presented a view of gen uine comfort. Mr. JLUuloliff, .kaa exer cised groat care in tho management of his farm, and in every department we recog nized the modern and model funnel'. Ills land was poor to begin with, but by prop er attention and cultivation it is now on rliliod. Tho Holds and pastures present an appoarunoo of unusual care. slore than half of his cultivutod acres are lux uriant in oats and wheat, while the pas tures are blooming in the various grasses. Every ditch was cleaned otit,' the fences the best in tho oounty, and tho hinds up turned ready for the spring culture. At hom<‘, ; we coEld but notice the splen did garden, thetlßo lings, lowls and cat tle. Everything In the barn yard looked slock and well cared for. His most excel lent wife presides over this department, and in Overy way sustains the part of a noblo woman. Wo observed her touch in tho farm ati<( at home. While w looted/over this niodet farm wo wondered why more people did not leave the crowded city and live in tho country, whore they might establish such a home. A place like this is worth hun dreds of crowded and squalid houses in town and gives peace and plenty. We only wish that our adjacent lands were owned and used in such a way. Such an example should bo followed and like ttie RadclilT farm lie made self sustaining in every department. We liavo taken the liberty of Intruding upon hospitality to mention this place in order to give nu idea of what a home may be made by proper and scientific culture, and with the hopo that more of our peo ple may beautify and adorn their places. We omitted Pi notice tlio elegant llsh pond. Such a tiling may be made upon all places, and besides adding to the beauty of the homo, it becomes a source of revenue. CUTTING SCRAPE IN' TROY. WOUNDS NOT FATAL BUT VERY DANGEROUS. Wo loarned yesterday of a serious dif ficulty in Troy,, between Mr. James Hill and Frank Watson. From tho facts we could gather, it seems that Mr. Hill and another gontleman were in nn altercation, when Mr. Watson Interfered to prevent it. slr. Hill turned upon Mr. Watson and cut him In several places. He is expected to live and to got well, though tils wounds are vrey serious and painful. Both of the gentlemen are highly respected, and bo longto families of influence. We learn the affair is most generally regretted. Mr. Hill we learn is in the custody of the law. A ( oMil>ilnt. Tho citizens in the eastern part of the city complain that they are not protected by tho police, though they pay tales to support them. They would like to see or hear of one walking on tlio back streets, instead of setting on dry goods boxes on Broad street. We agree witli them that the police should go through ids boat once or twice a night, and try and stop the chicken stealing. That we understand to lie their duty and not to coniine themselves to street corners and bar-rooms. Repre senting tho people, wo would ask if they cannot be required to look alter property generally, instead of watching one gas light post. A little trip on each block of their beat would not hurt anything, and tho bar-rooms would not seriously miss their presence. The complaint is very genera), though wo learn there are some who walk their boats and don’t stop to take lqng chats and naps on dry goods boxes. I’ho proper way to remedy this imposition, is for the people in the differ ent boats to prefer changes against those officers who do not leave one or two cor ners ami ask a discharge, and men com petent and trustworthy to bo placed in their stead. Wo have intormntion tills will bedone, unless a change ha manifested ill some boats. Krnirmltcr ThU. Now is the time of Uie year for Pneu monia, Lung Fever, Coughs, Colds, and fatal results of predisposition to Con sumption and other Throat and Lung Disease.

During ohe of the fairs in Paris, some years ago, Baron James de Rothschild was a put,run. Chancing to puss a stand where some pretty young ladies were installed, he asked in a bantering tone; “Well, iny dear, what can Ido for you'?” “Ah, Baron,” said ono, “you can give us your afitograph.” “With pleasure,” responded the gallant old baron, “if you will preface it with an ngreeable sentiment.” Ho the young lady, without much ado, wrote on a dainty slip of paper: “I hereby donate to charity ten thousand francs,” aud tho baron immediately signed his name in full, and smilingly paid the amount to the enterprising Paris ian.—Jewish Messenger. Why Will You l*lne A wity I WITHOUT A TAIIALLEL. Tlie demand for Dr. J. Bradfiold’s Fe male Regulator is beyond precedent in the annals of popular remedies. Orders come in so thick and fast that the Propri etor has, heretofore been unable to till them all. Ho is happy to state that ar rangements are now oomplete by which lie is prepared to manufacture Female Regulator on a scale equal to the emer gency, and the public may feel assured that their wants may now be supplied.

[Communicated. ] Editor* Time Economy is said to bo wealth; an assertion no one wifi readily gainsay. But “saving at tlie spigot and losing at the bung”—is that either wealth or economy? In administering our affairs, eithoc peisohal or public, a Just economy is commendable; but a niggardly saving, is parsimonious stinginess. The use of cultivated brains at a mendacious price, and selling corn and hay at an exorbitant rate, is not economy or retrenchment. What is it? “Putting money in thy purse" ? Lot us look at Columbus, whose credit is second to no Southern city. She pays tier City Physician four hundred dollars. Columbus Is charitable, or she hopes to make the outside world believe so. She pretends to take care of her poor, —and she has, without doubt, more poor people in her limits than any other South ern city of her population. Her factories invite them within her bounds; and, if re port bo true that tho factories propose to reduce the wages of their operatives be low living rates, they cannot possibly pay for their medicines and medical attend ance. Then tho labor of her City Phy sician must be necessarily greatly in creased (and at what a compensation! For comparison sake, let us look at the salaries of two of her officers. The City Physician, who is required to obey all Calls, day or night, rain or shine, hot or mold, necessary or not— he musf go. What is ills pay? Four hundred dollars. Tlio Wharfinger, whose attention is only required upon tho arrival of a boat; his visits are made ut his convenience. His salary is three hundred and fifty dollars. True, he must collect the whar fage -which be eftujd do without leaving his office -only his good' nature (and a better-natured man never lived) prompts him to trouble himself to call upon those owing wharfage. See the disparagement. And then, again, how much did tlie city pay for feeding the mules last year ? Is there any difference betwoon eighteen dol lars per month and twenty-four ? It is said the mules cost Uie eity lost year $24 per month. If we are wrong, will the late efficient Chairman of tho Street Commit tee correct us ? Montgomery pays her City Physician SI,OOO. Columbus s4oo—a little less than twice as much as feeding our mules cost last year. Now, if Colum bus really means retrenchment, dispense with the services of a City Physician, and put the mules and city poor under the Deputy Marshal, assisted by tlie Hospital Keeper; and don’t aspire to tlie dignity of an educated gentleman, with less pay than two city rnules can eat up. slen, like mules, must be fed, even if tlio man be only a Doctor.
