Don’t despise the day of small things, and keep your nose down at The Every Even ing. Savannah now has two papers, both dailies. The Belgian trucks, introduced by Mr. I). O’Connor, bear off the palm for draying conveyances. This is Friday, hangman’s day, and the birthday of The Every Evening. The Tybee wharf has recently been im posed upon by Browns pile driver, and benefited muchly. The steam launch Eureka is said to be destined for the Land of Flowers with a party of Savannah gentlemen on a frolic at an early day. Two new bar rooms, in locations now so improved for the first time, are being fixed up, one on Bay and one on Broughton, and another is being handsomely enlarged and added to on Bryan—all of which suggests that Christinas is coming. Chicago art is not popular with some folks in Savannah, although recently Ileidt-ened in the estimation of others. Mr. Muller began last Monday the survey of the line of railroad that will connect the Gulf road and the Charleston and Savannah road by a circuit around the southern limits of the city, and the work on the link is being pushed ahead. Is a professor of vocal music properly called Mallette because he beats time ? Our own probabilities forecast the weather for the next twenty-lour hours. The direction of the wind, the state of the sea, and the condition of the temperature at Tybee up to 2 o’clock to-day are given in our columns, and must prove of interest and importance to our merchants, shipping firms and seafaring men. An Uuwelcomed Bed Fellow. A gentleman who resides in the southeast ern portion of the city was very much an noyed last evening after retiring by some thing moving under his pillow, and this morning his wife determined to examine into the affair. Her surprise can be better im agined than described, as she discovered a large centipede closely nestled under the pil low used by her husband through the night. As soon as the insect was found it beat a hasty retreat, and at last accounts had not been captured. About a Sieiv Corner. In reference to the departure from the Crescent City of Mr. I. W. Burt, who has re cently assumed the position of assistant to Mr. Popple in the Signal office, the New Or leans Times of a late date, says : “Mr I. W. Burt, for some time connected with the Signal Bureau here, and a faithful and a competent officer, has been ordered to report at Savannah, where he has been as signed to duty. For the many courtesies ex tended by Mr. Burt, the Times expresses its thanks, and we commend him to our breth ren of the press at Savannah.” Some of the industrious Russian astrono mers suppose they have discovered that the moon is inhabited, and that a number of lu nar observers have hoisted an immense mir ror for the purpose of catching reflections from the earth. A peculiarly bright spot which has been shining on the edge of the moon for months has led them to the sup position. From this discovery it may be inferred that unless the gentlemen in the moon put a curb on their curiosity, they may drop down upon us any day; and if our ideas of civilization should not happen to agree with theirs, we should, of course, have a real old-fashioned inter planetary row on our hands.

During tile past summer our pious City Fathers attempted to build up a Simon Pure reputation lor gen line Christianity by passing an ordinance requiring the barber shops in our city to close up altogether on undays. We don’t know exactly what could have prompted Council in tii.it .-qms inodic effort to inveigle the e ,in-chop pers to observe the entire E.bbath day, hut we presume that it was done byway of an offset to contributing more uiokle for the support of heath ens. Our very In art bursts with sym pathy for the poor tousori artists, who, for several years past, have t-eeu held iu perfoo siuver (aye wot so than slavery), from sunrise till 10 a. m. on F>un lay mornings—and, oh, how kind it was in a Christian Council to come to their rescue and thus, by i single stroke of the pen, liberate them from tousoriul bondage. The tee- ption of that ordinance was the signal h r a general outburst of barbar-ou.-. enthu siasm. Why so great was tiu appre ciation iu some quarters that the pa triotic face scrapers rushed fruuticallj to their luxurious hom> sand ??ia'.ched the framed copy of Lincoln’s Fr. ed.oui Proclamation from the wall and ported instead the ordinance of our noble City Council, which gives them ample time to play a gone of “seven-up”' before go'ng to church on unday mornings. And now in behalf oi' our tax-payers we desire to know why in the name of heavens hasn’t Council made an appropriation to buy the poor boys red flannel tights an 1 copies of the base bill mauuel, that, they might better enjoy the national game? Why shouldn’t they be encouraged in this healthy exercise? Why ar the poor barbers neglected thusly? It is a shame and an outrage ■ a a Christian community, and our citizens cry aloud for Reform, and must have it Why just think of it for a momtnt —how cruel that a poor barber shou and have to work for an hour or two here in a city when a citizen can’t get his bit ters on Sundays unless'he pulls it out of a bottle at home. No, gentleman, the barber must be protected iu ob serving the Sabbath, aud since they are too pious to handle a razor on that day, Council should take the matter in hand at once aud see that, they are furnished with red flannel tights and base ball manual-.; a bunch of tracts and a pint of pea nuts might be very appropriately thrown iu, too, for, lo the poor barber must and shall oe protected in his efforts to get base bail aud mumble-the-peg leisure on Sabbath day. ~ -To flic (Ladies. Capt. Plonk lias just opened a neat oyster saloon on York street, near Bull, for the special accommodation of ladies aud gentlemen. His saloon has an air of neatness about it that is sure to encourage a good appetite, and juding from the fine lot of Cedar Iveys oysters which ho has on hand, w can bat conclude that the Captain is deter mined to look out for the interest oi the ladies during the season, and we trust he will receive a liberal patron age at their hands. Fee his auvertise menh — It is really aston shiny how many noble citizens there arc in Savannah who want “ another paper,” and yet are unwilling to pay for it. The ma chinery cau’t run without, grease, gen tlemen. Good wishes, etc., won tpay printers. We know of nothin' 1 in this world better calculated to make an old sinner of a good Christian than an adhesive spell of rheumatism. The Philadelphia girls are so filled with patriotic ardor as to propose stockings deco rated with the Star Spangled Banner for wear during the Centennial season. Well, girls, that’s all right.

Drunk.., disorders, suspicious characters—that’s all. The sun found things a little cool for Ins iccepliou when he first glanced at the world this morning. Three temples of justice close tlietr doors in honor of the holiday, at o o’clock tiffs evening—those of Magistrates Abrams, llart, and Russell and Beiisauo —to remain shut until the setting of another sun. The office of the City Court Clerk has been carpeted and its walls calcimine!. Deputy Sheriff Graef is getting himself in training to go on the war path ne.it week and run down jurors. Three lunatics in jail await the return of Major Ferrill, who is North for his health, to be sent West-to Midway-—for their health of mind. ' , . , A big time and a good trot at the Thu 11 derbolt track this afternoon, but the .rcsu‘ l will be known too late lor this issue of i'lF Every Evening. The investigation of that “strange affair,’ in which Robert Norton and James Pfearn are charged with making a heavy assault upon a man named Mitchcd on Monday night, gives Magistrate Bernard Smith some thing to dual 4 o'clock this afternoon. — There is already in Paris a company for conducting funerals, and now we are told m one of Mrs. Lucy Hooper’s latest letters that a corporation to bear the same thing in relation to marriages :.s on foot. The new company will gel up weddings oi all prices and dimensions, irom me Humblest ol marriages up to nuptials lit for a millionaire. The huge deserted buildings of the Mag-asms Reunis are spoken oi as .lie probable locale for this new enterprise. chapel and a Branch of the mayoralty will tie installed therein, so that tne civil and religious marria ges can take place under the same roof. A superb restaurant and a spacious ball room for the ensuing festivities w.ll aiso form part of the establishment. Carriages, lawyers, priests, suppers, nay, even the wedding finery, will be lurnished by this enterpeising firm. If oniy they add a marriage agency, such as seems to thrive m several parts of Paris, to tiieir matrimonial facilities, the whole affair will be perfect, only lacking an American branch tor divorces, to carry out the idea to its fullest extent. In a late letter on international copyright to the New York Tribune, Charles Keade, the lamous English novelist, mildly remarks that “ the greatest asses God has ever made are little lawyers. Your little lawyer is a man who lias parted with the good sense ol the layman, and has not advanced one inch toward the science of a Mansfield or a alury.” The resolutions of the State Convention thus far held upon the currency may be thus classified : Republican, for hard money .Maine, Minnesota, lowa, Wisconsin, Lew York, California, Maryland and Massachu setts, eight; for inflation, or non-committal— Ohio, Pennsylvania, Nebraska-and Kentucky, four. Democratic, for hard money—Maine, Minnesota, Wisconsin, New York, California Maryland, Nebraska and Ma-.sachusetts, eight; for inflation, or non-commiuai—Ohio, Pennsylvania, lowa and Kentucky, tour. It is pretty much of a muchness. The Constitutional Convention in North Carolina proposes to reduce the Governor’s office from tour years to two, to pay him Sj.ooo per year, to abolish the office of Lieutenant-Governor, and to limit the pav of the members of tile Legislature to §4 per day for sixty days.

The Marquese tie Chambrun, the grand daughter of Lafayette, now resident in Washington, has in her possession a set of pearls given her grand-mother by Maria Antonict e, at whose wedding that lady acted as bridesmaid. The Si. Louis Times tells President Grant that he has just thrown away a more than golden opportunity. He and Jeff.
