IMPORTANT QUERY.
What official of the Executive department
has been so severely criticizing Gen. Colquitt?
Can’t some one of the Atlanta papers, in the
exercise of their eternal vigilance, ascertain
who he is, that the people of Georgia may
know this official, who is doubtless so jealous
and apprehensive of his third term.
CHRIS TMAS ON THE STREETS.
Christmas Eve. and the day itself, evi-
dently developes all the musical talent of
our juvenile population. The Athens Band
have at last a rival, and judging the count-
lessTroubadours which nightly perambulate
our streets, for volume,, these musicians
have no superiors on the American contit
nent. There is a marked difference, how*
ever, between these two organizations.
Whilst the Davis Troupe, with wonderful
musicnl. taste, play one tune at a time, the
Troubadours execute all of their selections
at the same moment. Performances coin*

of building a new bridge —which the town

Why, the counter-braces have nothing t •
abut against. The wooden shoes or blocks,
at their heads, have split—every one.
Counters are very necessary parts of a good
bridge. The Lower Bridge has, virtually,

sequently, the bridge has not only lost its
camber, but actually sways to an alarming
extent. The mnift brace* and >4ior<ls of
tfcift bridge undergo strains that are ruin
ous every time it is uneqnally and heavily
loaded. Take away those old wooden shoes
that are split and put in cast-iron ones, then
screw up on the tie-rods, and the trusses
will assume a new camber and the bridge
be as sound and firm as ever. The beauty
of a Howe truss is, that when it sways, it
may be raised up again by simply screwing
np on the tie-rods. It is true, false works
would have to be erected—but, would they
not have to bo raised if a new bridge was
built? which, before very long, as I have
said, will have to be done, if things are
permitted thus to go to destruction. That
bridge might he fixed now, and not a hit of

that ho is the ablest lawyer in the House— : -

he is not made Chairman of the J udicinry
