"The Iron Lines."?The steamship Georgia, Captain Holmes, sailed yester? day afternoon for New York, witb one of the regular weekly monster cargoes, which have made tho "Clyde Lino" so conspicuous for several years past. The cottou shippers of tho interior evidently don't believe all tho wonderful stories about the epizootic iu Charleston, for cottou shipments continue large this way; aud we would mention that the 3,000 packages of cottou, rice, naval stores, goods and sundries were all deli? vered to the Georgia several hours before her sailing time. Tho Smith Carolina, Captain Beckett, left New York yestordny afternoon with a large freight, which indicates that the horses are ou the mend there. She brings ulco seventy-live passengers.

Philadelphia Rings ?The investiga? tion iuto tho charges of corruption aud biibery iu tho City Council commenced to-day, aud, so far, tho testimony shows an amount of venality rivaling that ex? posed iu New York last year. The tosti tnouy of a trustworthy witness, fully cor? roborated, shows that there was a wood paving riug designed to swindle the city; that u large sum of money was raised for the purpose of bribing members of the Councils to vote for tho wood pavement ou Broad street; that the affair wan con? cocted und carried on in the offieo of ouo member of the Councils, aud that when a member threatened to go b ick ou the whole concern, throats were made to kill him. The testimony, so far as tnkeu, implicates mauy outsiders. It is be? lieved that thoso who are exposing the affair do so at tho risk of their lives, some of tboee implicated in it boing al?o implicated iu the Brooks, Mara und Dougherty affair. The Texas pupors are filled with ae coutils of tho rapid progress of the Texas aud Pacific Railroud. Tho Jefferson Times says that the work is lively an.I progressing.

There is every reason to ue lieve that by, or before, January, the road will bo completed to Marshall, a substantial, olegaut railroad bridge finished over the bayou at Jefferson, somewhere near Mayberry's Bridge, and a connection formed with the branch road to Texarcana.

Tho charges wcro read, when Mr. Trice, who was present, plead not guilty. | The witnesses ? six iu number?were sworn. The Mayor ruled that they must all withdraw iuto tbe ante-room, aud bo ad-1 mit tod oue at a time, to give testimony. Charles White was first examined. Testified, in a rambling speech, that the Superintendent of Streets went out to make mouey for himself, aud neglected his business; also, that be bad cursed him, and bad left bim to overseo tbe hands for n week at a time; also, accused bim of being drunk at different times. Mr. J. T. Sloan, Jr., appeared as counsel for defendant. Some questions arose as to the propriety of this, when Alderman Carpenter made a motion to allow the counsel; which was udopted. Two or tbreo other witnesses were examined, but. nothing being elicited to sustain the charges, Aldcrmun Carpenter offered u resolution to stay tho proceed? ings, as ho did uot think they should be cousidered by tho Council. Thought it beneath its dignity, as tbe case did not amount to the dignity of a farce. The same was adopted, aud tho case dis? missed. On motiou of Alderman Carpenter, tbe Council proceeded to try other cases' ponding. The case of John Nott, policemuu, was taken up.

Sergeant Nott then struck at Sergeant Williamsaud fell to tho ground. Ho then ordered bim to surrender up bis club; be refused to do ho, claiming it as bis property. He then ordered Sergeant Williams and Policemen Allou and Gib sou to arrest bim aud lock bim up. They took him away, but did not obey his order to lock bim up. He also stated that he thought that Sergeant Nott wus somewhat under the iufiueuce of liquor. Tho testimony of Lien tenant Black did uot differ from Captain Jackson's in any essential part. Policemen F. J. Allen and J. Gibson, also Mr. James Canton, gave in their testimony, tvhioh was about the samo in till cases. Policeman Nott, defendant, was sworn, aud stated lhat he struck Sorgeaut Wil? liams, but deuied beiug disorderly or that ho was under tbe iufiueuce of liquor. Tho case was then closed. Tho Council Chamber was then cleared of all spectators, and tho Board proceed? ed to examine tbo case, when the fo'low inr? decision a'^c arrived al!

As the gene? ral opiniou of tho merahants aud finan? ciers of New York is that tbe boots ure too big for both of these aspirauts to Cabinet honors, the probability is that when Mr. Boutwell takes them off nei? ther Mr. Clews nor Mr. Morgan will be allowed to put them on.
