Ou Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock, the steal er Rainbow, of Rome, finished tbe programi in the performance of playing off-masing ti hundred and seventeen feet, it is proper add that the arrangement for the exercis and order of playing was male io the morn in at a meeting of the several presidents of cot panies which was presided over by Preside Buist, and that each drew fjr his turn, so th there was no opportunity for crumbling. The companies now formed in hollow-aqua in front of the State House, and tho priz< were arranged upon an elevated platfon These were presented to the winning coe panies by Colonel L. J. Glenn, who with bapr taot and exceeding grace performed the difl cult task ot paying a compliment to each, ac yet of savin}.- something fresh and different I all. Among the unofficial prizes was a sewin machine, offered by Sir. Gibbes, agent < Bartram & Fenton, manufacturers, with th understanding that it was to be given to th company having the largest nnmber of bach? lora m its ranks, and the further reservatio that the company should bes to v it upon th first man who marries out of his flock. 1 may bo remarked here that tho Defiance, c Macon, alono had upon the ground Bixty-flv unmarried men. The first gift was a testimonial to Hook an Ladder No. 1, of Atlanta, consisting oi a win set. The first prizo was a silver trumpet awardei to the Tallulah, of Atlanta, being . the ebie prize for the third class hand engines. Tbe second prize was also a silver t ru rape t awarded to band engine No. 5, of Augusta Captain Pat Walsh, and most elegantly re seived by nim. The third prize was a pitcher and two gob? lets, presented to Defiance, hand engine, o Macon, by one of thc citizens of Atlanta, as t nememto of Atlanta's hospitality. Mechanic, No. 2, received a pitcher and gob eta. Next in turn of presentation were the Pal nettoes, who received the greatest and most raluable prize of all, to-wit: a silver punch jowl, valued at $125.

Here one )f the episodes ot tbe general rejoicing was an invitation extended by the Palmettoes, and formally accepted by that company, to visit Charleston on the occasion ot our next fire? man's anniversary. The silver pouch bowl was christened by numerous bumpers from its gilded Jeptb; tho boys exchanged bate, baiges and presents, and general good feeling prevailed. General Tige Anderson was pres? ent and made appropriate remarks, dosing with a sentiment to the memory of General M. Jenkins, of South Carolina. THF. HOUR OP DEPARTURE, However, was approaching, and the boys were i bilged to return to the h J tel for necessary preparations. It is but just to speak of Messrs.

The best rooms in toe hou se were assigned to the Carolinians, the attendinoo vas all that could bo desired, the tables were always spread for those who weie tardy at meals, and the edibles were bountiful and choice. Finally, in leaving the house such a liberal reduction was made from the usual charges to guests as to leave no doubt that, like all other citizens, the proprietors desired us to carry away only the'plea^antost recollections oi Atlanta. At 5:40 P. M. tbe cats left the depot, beat-in? ti their rcbpectivr homes tho men of Augusta and Charleston.

PEBSONNE. DOVES AND DOVECOTS. [From the Saturday RtvUw.J Times must be very bad indeed if a faithful few are not still left to keep the sources of so? ciety s weet euid whole iome. When corruption has (tone through the whole mass and all classes are bad alike, everything comos to an end, and there is a general overthrow of na? tional life; but while some are left pure and unspotted we are not quite undone, and wo reasonably hope for better days in the future. In the midst of the reign of the girl of the pe? riod, with her slang and her boldness-of the fashionable woman, with her denial of duty and her madness for pleasure-we come every now and then upon a group- of good girls of j thereat old English type, the faithful few growing up silently among ns, but none the less valuable because they are silent and make no public display-doves who are content with life as they have it io the dovecot, and have no debire lo be either eagles dwelling on romantic heights, or peacocks displaying their pride ia sunny courte. We find these faithful few in town and country abke ; but they are lifcat in the country, where there is less temptation to go wrong than there is io the large towns, and where life is more simple, and the moral tone undeniably higher. The lead? ing feature of the?e girls is their love of home and ot their own family, and their power of making c ccupatioo and happiness out of appa? rently meagre materials. If they are the eld? ers, they find amusement and more in their little brothers and sisters, whom they consider immensely funny, and to whom they are as much girl-mothers as Bisters; if th ny are the youngers, they idolize their baby nephews and nieces. For there is always a baby going on somewhere about these houses, babies being the great excitement of homo lite, and the an? tiseptic element which keeps everything else pure. They aro passionately attached to papa and momma, whom tbay think the very king and quoeo of humanity, and whom they do not call by even endearing slang names. It has nevor occurred to them to criticise them is or? dinary mortals; and as they have not been in tho way of learning the prevailing ac? cent ot disrespect, they have not shaken off | that almost leltgioas veneration for their parents which all young people feel naturally, if they have been well brought up and aro not corrupted. The yoke in most middle-class country-houses is one fitting very loosely round alfnecks; and there being no power of nam < greater freedom, if even they had it, the girls are not tret ed by its pressure, and are con? tent to live under it in peace. They adore their Bider brothers who are from home* just begin? ning the groat battle of life for themselves, and confidently believe them to be the finest fel? lows going, aud the future great mon ot the day if o ily they o .re to put oat those splendid talents of theirs, and take the trouble of pluck? ing the prizes wu hm their reach. They may bave a sticht reservation, perhaps, in favor of the brothers' friend, whom they place on a pedestal of almost equal height. Bat they toop tboir mental architecture a profound secret from every .one, aud < o not suffer them? selves to let it grow into too solid a structure anleys it has some surer fonndition 11 an their ?wo fancy. For, though doves ore lovrng, ;bey are by no means love-sick damsels; they ire too healthy and natural and quietly busy br unwholesome dreams. If one of them mar? ries, they all unite m loving the man who somes in among them. He is adopted as one >f themselves, and leaps into & family of ido ? zing sisters who pet bim as their brother ii tb just that su ot le little difference in the pet? ing that it comes from sifters unaccustomed, md so bas the etiarm of novelty it not the ex? crement of naughtiness. But this kind of thing s about tho most dangerous to a man's moral tature that can batall him. Though pretty to iee, and undeniably pleasant to expcricnce,aiid hough perieclly innocent in every way, still lothing enervates one EO much aa this idola rous submission of a l;tr<e family ol women, u a widow'* uouso, where there aro many /ho marries ono marries tho whole faintly, and s worshipped accordingly, tho danger is of omeo increased tenfold; but if tliote are bro? ilers and a lather, tho sister's husband,though ffectiouatoly c ood over, is uot made quito inch a loss with, und the association is ali the ess hurtful in consequence. . The lifo of tbeao gu ls is by no maana s tepid, hough it is quiet and without any spasmodic wents or cataclysms of fortuno in any way. L'hey go a groat deal among the village coot, md they teach at tho Sunday-school, and at? om! tho mothers' meetings und clothing-clubs sud the like, agil learn to cet interested in heir humbler trie ds, who, ofter all, are Cnns ,ian sisters. They read their romances in reul ife instead ot ia three-volume novels, and jtudy human nature as it is-ia the rough, jertainly, but perhaps in more genuine form man rf they learnt it ouly in what is called society. Then they havo their pleasures, (housh they are of an unexciting kind aou what fapt girls would call awfully slow. They havo thou: horses and their croquet parties ind their archery meetings, they nave batches of new music, ands monthly box from Mud;e's, and they know the value of both; and they go sut to tea sometimes, and sometimes to dinner in the neighborhood; and enjoy the r ure coun? try balls with a zest unknown to London girls who are ont every night in tho week. They have their village flower-shows, which the great families patronize in a tiee-and-easy kind of way, and which give occupation for weekB bet?re and subject for talk for weeks after; their school feasts, where the pet parson of the district oomes out with bis best aatc dotes, and makes mild jokes at a long distance from Sydney Smith; their periodical mis? sionary meetings, where they have great guns from London, and where the ? hear nootuoos stories about the saintliness of coo verted can? nibals, sod are required to believe ia the power of a change of faith to produce an ethnologi? cal miracle; they have their friends to stay with them-sohool-girl friends-with whom they exchange deep confidences, ?ind go back over the old days-so old to their youth 1 aud their brothers como down in tho summer; and their brother*'friends oome with them, and do a little spoouing io the shrubbery. But there is more spooning done at picnics Hun any? where else; and more offers oro mado there, under tho shadow of thu old rum, or in tho quiet leafy nook by the river side, than at auv other gathering time of the country. And as we are ali to a certain extent what we are made, these pleasures being the only onus known io them, tho doves take to them quite kindly and gratefully, and enjoy themselves in a simplici? ty of sircumstanoes which would give no pl ja? muro st all to girls accustomed to more highly spiced entertainments. Doves know very little of evil. They ore not ii the way of learning it; and they do not care to learn it. The few villagers who are supposed to lsad ill lives ?re spoken of below the breath, and care? fully avoided without being critically studied. When the railway is carried down past their quiet nest, there is an immense excitement. s tue report goes tint a koot of strange men have been seen scattering themselves over tho fields with their ?ittlo white flags and theodol? ites-their measuring lines and levels. But when the army of navvies follows after, the ex? citement is changed to consternation, and a general sense of evil brooding ruthlessly over them. The clergy of the district organize spe? cial services; and the scared dives keep reli? giously away tro ai the p ?co where thu navvt s are hutted. They aro little beti or than thu savages, tho deputation tell them about ou"u or twice a year, and croate almost is niue > terror os an encampment of gipsies, l'hey leprotout the lawless fore s of thu world, a .d the unknown evil of strong mon; and toe wild? est story about them '8 not too ?riki to bu be? lieved, ino ruiiway altogether is a urea* of? tener to tue neighborhood, ?md tbo?lino is an? gu?n ed to destroy tho whole scenic beauty of the place. There are lamentations over the ci cliney* it will bring dowu, over tho high prices it will create, tho immorality it will eau-?. O.ily the, eons who are nut in thu wc rid and have lojrnt how ufo goos ou ?u .-ido" thu d ivocot, advocate keeping pace with tho Ihnes; and a few of the moro strong mumed ot the doves listen to them with a limul udni ra? tion ol their breadth and boldness, and tn.nit there muy be two sides to tho question after oil. When tho dashing caplat i and Ins lust wife suddenly appear in tho village - us often h au pens m theao remo e districts tho doves aro in a state of greit moral complexity. Thcv aro scandalized at Uni tUghflyer's costume au 1 comp.oxion, and think her mim?is odd and uoub hu: bot si ii g shocks them; and when tho> meet her ni (he lanes, trailing yards of silk neilin 1 Uer in ihe mud. talking so l< utily and laughm.- no shrilly with that hoirid-looking man tu ti given eulawav, they feel as flattered as their mun i Kukcs wuou a hawk ia hovering over thu la ni yard. Thu dashing captain, wno does wot u .o a pravcr-b tot at church, a..d who sturus ut ail T Li- girl* SJ rudely, ar.d has evoa been sean to Kink al Home of tho prettier cottage girls, and has haud.omo wile wah her eqaivooal com plcxion and pronounced fashions, who makes eyes at the curate, are never heartily adopted by tbe local magnates, though vouched for by some Jar-away bicker; and tbe doves always feel them to be strange bodies among thom, and out of their rightful element somehow. If things go quietly without an explosion, well and good; but if the truth bursts' to the sur? face in the shape of a London detective, and the Higbfiy ers are found to be no better than they should be, the consternation and half, awed wonderment at the existence of so much effrontery and villany in their atmosphere create an impression which no time effaces. Tbe first clash of innocence with evil is an event in tbe Ufe of tbe innocent which nothing ever destroys. Tho dovecot is rather dull in the winter, and the doves aro somewhat moped; but even then they have thc church to decorate, and the sen? timent of Christmas to enliven them. Tbe ab? sent ones of the family, too, gather round tbe old hearth while they can; and as the great joy of the dovecot lies in tho family union that is kept up, and in the family love which is so strom?, the visits of the absent bring a moral summer as warm and oheering as the physical sunshine. But they do not all assemble. For many of the doves marry men whose work lies abroad; these quiet country houses being the favorite matrimonial hunting-grounds for colo? nists and Anglo-Indians. So that some are always absent, whoso healths are drunk in thc traditional punch, with. eves that grow moist as tho names aro said. Doves are not disin? clined io marry men who have to go abroad, for all tho passionate family love common to them. Travel is a golden dream to them in th. ir still homos; but travel properly compan? ioned. For even tho most adventurous among them aro not independent, as wo mean whoo we speak of independence in women. 1 hey are essentially home Rirls. family girls, doves who cannot exist at a'l without a dovecot, how? ever humble. The family is everytbing to them, and they are utterly unfit for the soli? tude which BO many of our self-supporting women can accept quite resignedly. Not that they are necessarily useless even as breadwinners. They could work if pushed to it; but iu must be in a qdiet, womanly way, with the mother, tbe sister, the husband as the helper, with tho homo as ihe place of rest and the refuge. Their whole lines are laid in love and quietness; not necessarily in inac? tion, but tbsir wishes and their aims are all centred within the home circle. If they marry, they find the lovo of their hnsband enough for them, and have no desire for otb er men's ad? miration; their babies are all the world to them, and tbey do not think maternity an infliction as so many of the miserably fashionable think it; they bke tho occupation of housekeeping, and feel pride in their fine linen and clean ser? vice, in their well-ordered tame an i neatly bal? anced accounts. They are kind to their ser? vants, wbo generally como from the old home, and whose lamilies tbey therefore know; but they keep up a certain dignity and tone of su? periority towards them in the midst of all their kindness, which very few town-bred mistresses can keep to town-bred maids. They have al? ways been the aristocracy in their native place, and they carry through life the ineffaceable stamp which being "the best" gives, they are essentially mild and gentlewomen; not queens of society even when they are pretty, because not caring tor social success, and t he.-e'oro not la ung themselves out for ii; for if they please at homo that is all they care tor, holding love before admiration, and tho esteom of one high? er than tbe praise of many. Ii a fault is to bo found with them it is that they have not perhaps quito enough "salt" for tho general taste, used as it is to such highly seasoned social food; but do wo really want our women to have so very much character ? Do not our splendid passionate creatures load madly wretched lives and make miserably uncomfort? able tiouies ? aud aro uot our glorious hero? ines bettor iu pictures and in fiction than peal? ed by thu nursery fire, or checking the bukcr's bill ? No doubt the quiet, home-stay mg dov s ????? ?-----g iwmiliir to us by romance und history, which is moro romantic stilt; but as our daily lives run chiefly in prose, they are butter fitted for thing i as tho. are; and to men who want wi Ves ai id not playthings, and who caro for tho peace of family lifo and tho digni? ty of >iorae, they are boyoad prico when they can be found and securod. Go that, on the whole, we can dispense with tho splendid crea? tures of obaracter and tho magnificent queens of aocieiy eoooor than with the quiet and ujob trusive doves; and though they do spoil men most monstrouslv, they know where to draw the ine, and while petting their own at hom ; -as women should-know bow to keep strang ere abroad at a distance, and to make them? selves respeoted as only modest and gentle women are respected by men.
