SOCIAL LIFE IN MOBILE-Mobile was always
notable for its social Inequalities, and the ele-
Rant and general courtesies of life. These for
some time past must have been sadly disturbed
aud interrupted, and we are giad TO observe, as
we do on perusing the last number OF the Mobile
News, that the old order of things is beginning
TO lie restored in our pleasant sister city.

c., May 18th, says:
James c. johnson, one Of the wealthiest men
In the South died on the 18th instant, at bis
home. near Edentop, in this State. He disinherit-
cd all his relatives because they left him and
identified themselves with the rebel cause. His
property, amounting 10 many millions OF dollars,
lie left to few personal friends. His immense
posse ,sions on the Roanoke river comprise the
richest lands in the country. At the outbreak Of
the rebellion he told his slaves, numbering near
ly thousand, that the war would make them
free and that they could remain with him or go
where they pleased He was personal friend Of
Henry Clay, whose Indebtedness, which amounted
to over thirty Thousand dollars. Mr.. johnson Is
said to have cancelled, without Mr.. Gays knowl-
edge. who was never able to ascertain Who his
benefactor was. He was about eighty years Of
age when he died, and was devoted Union man
up TO the hour Of his death.

THE FIsHERIEs.-Tte re-opening of the
James River, and the reversion Of that
stream to the uses of peace, has caused
shoals of fishes to ascend its waters. Fish
are now found in abundance below Rockets,
and herring have been caught even as high
up as the dock. Several extensive fisheries
have been established between Richmond and
Drewry's Bluff, and number Of excellent
hauls have been made. The sound OF hos
tile guns, that used to fright the fishes from
their propriety, are no longer heard, and the
s'noole James" now bears upon its bosom the
ships OF commerce, not the iron-clads OF
war,

was Nat. Banks. Phil. Williams came be-

There had been , previous controversy
touching the legitimate rights of the parties.
Williams at once drew q knife and plunged

Several physicians were called in, but we

The HACKMEN AND THEIR CHARaEs.-We,
some days since, adverted to the exorbitant
charges practised by this class. General
Patrick, Provost Marshal General, has taken
them in hand, and his orders require them
TO carry passengers from the steamboat
landing, or depots, or hotels, or any point in
the city, for fare of one dollar per passen-
ger, and fixes the hourly compensation at
one dollar and half. The penalty for re-
fpsing to carry passengers at these rates, or
for demanding more, is contiscation Of their
vehicles and hor.es.
Ever since the evacuation Of the city, and
the upsetting of muuicipal rule, consequent
upon the occupation Of the city by the Fed
eral authorities, the hackmen charged
Just what they saw proper. The infux
of parties from the North, and the demand
generally for hack hire, gave them facilities
that they did not enjoy before. and for awhile
they reaped q rich harvest. The public will
thank Gen. Patrick, now that be has made
the nuisance the subject Of q general order.
We observe that colored men no longer mo-
nopoliEe the business. White hackmen are
to be found on every thorouybfare. Que
good rule must henceforth govern them all.

EnUcATIoNAL.-It will be seen by refer
ence to advertisement that Rev. W. j. Pet
tigrew will reopen his school, in the rear OF
Sycamore Church, on Thursday next. The
war and the unsettled state of affairs during
and pursuant to the evacuation Of Rich.
mond. have sadly interfered with the eduoa-
ton Of youths, and hence there can be no
obiection to q summer session. Mr.. Petit
grew is an experienced teacher and gen.
tleman OF high attainments, and those
narents who commit their children to his
charge may be assured that they will re-
ceiye faithful attention.

for the matter Of that, throughout. the whole

Is still ia successful existence, under the old star

protege of John Hooper, we'll known to the read
ems of the old New York Spirit of the Times as
the author OF Simon Suggs.' Its present editor
Is the Southern hum ,rist, John Happy albert

could do, handling, marking and forwarding
them. Much OF the goods being forwarded
is that shipped by private soldiers, and is
made up of private baggage, blankets and
personal clothing, net necessary to the pres
ent use of the soldier.
The press Of goods has been 81 great on
the Express Company that they have been
compelled to extend their quarters from the
old United States (late Union Hotel) to a
very commodious warehouse just below the
Libby Prison. The depot Of the Company
will be located here, and here will be accu-
INFLATED all the freight intended for trans
portation.
So extensive has been the business pressed
upon the Company, within the few days past,
that the office has had to be kept open all
day and night, and the relay Of clerks have
had to be doubled.
We append a list Of the principal attaches
and employees of this Company, at its Rich
mond office:

Booth, OF Sanwix Hall, last Friday, and attacked
him with dirk, cutting his face badly. She did
not however, succeed in inhcting mortal

dead however. The cause was not disappointed

with farming stock. Within the past four

them perfectly destitute Of horses and

plying them. At the last sale in Rockets,
about one hundred and fifty horses and
mules, formerly in the service, were sold at
au average price of $3.50 for horses, and
$42 for mules. The purchasers were mostly
IRON the counties, and We may As well state
that the knowledge of the sale was derived
from the columns of the Wig, which finds
its way into the country in very large num-
bers. 1t must be understood that although
'condemned" in Government parlance, the
animals offered and sold are perfectly sound.
" Condemned" means simply that the Gov
ernment has no further use for them, and
although reduced in flesh, the animals have
lost nothing in bottom or metal. A little
rest and care will recuperate their energies,
and constitute them the first hags in the
country, fit for the saddle, road, or the
harness.
