The child, now a young priest, is distinguishing himself by his pulpit oratory. Thomas Ball’s new statue of “Eve” has been shipped to this country.

The Central Railroad is receiving eighty la borers par week to work on the Erenbem and Calvert extensions. The machine aof this road at Houston is turning out eight box can daily.

MB' Over two hundred “reapeetable mer- chants” of New York are under suspicion of participation in the Custom House frauds, as ws learn from the Times of that city. The aggregate amoedt at their swindles is said to be onorasona, and steps have already bean token in many oases to bring thorn to a strict •ooount.

Ho weald obstinately rotes# to enter the field as a political standard-bearer ia a earn paign which has not even a remote political signifies nee. He reprobate* earnestly, the P«U«y of dragging political issues into our municipal osnvsaa. The only question hs propoemds, and theonly ons he oaro to havs answered is, what policy will beet continue the rapid growth of ths city, and firmly setsb- ltsh and increase its prosperity ? Mr. Markham U one of the people. To him ia due much ot the prosperity of Atlanta He came hers an honest, hard-working man. His motto was industry, honesty and frugali ty. He labored hard, and the wealth he now enjoys ia the legitimate fruits of that labor — He poaesases nothing that did not eome to him honestly. Ilia integrity has never been impeached. But, what he has done in the past for At< lante, is not ths only basis upon which rests his value as a oitixen. Even now he has an enterprise on foot which will shortly culmi nate in the establishment at this place of one of the Largest manufacturing establishments in tho South. It wiH giro employment to eooree of men, women and children, and tend vastly to inorease the population and trads of Atlanta. Mr. Markham is not a candidate in obedi- anoe to any personal and selfish consideration. He annouaeee himself at the earnest sugges* tion of many of onr most influential oitizeoa of both political parties. It was only after much persuasion that hs was induced to be come a candidate at all. He was persuaded that the intereete of all claaees of people and the general prosperity of the city would be subserved by his election, hence ho consented to allow his name to be nsed. He favors an enlightened, liberal aud judi cions system of free schools. Ho is friendly to railroad enterprises—not neglecting our cherished Air-Line Road—and heartily en courages manufacturing interests of all kinds. Ho values tho credit of tho city as highly as he does his individual credit, and in his hands the city exchequer would never suffer depre ciation. He is a safe man for the office. He will not discriminate between classes, but endeavor to protect the interests of all. He is the citizens’candidate for Mayor. The people will vote for him. We hope be will be elected that Atlanta may have a good Mayor for tbe next twelve months. The Citizens’ Ticket Fur Aldermen. By the request of scores of the most in fluential and worthy citizens of Atlanta, we present a ticket for Aldermen to be voted for to-morrow, which, we believe, if elected, will serve the city with honor and fidelity.

New York having gone Democratic, the question of the safety of the Fifteenth Amendment comes np again, but not in any vary critical shapo. it is conceded that tbe Democratic Legislators of the Empire State will rescind or attempt to rescind the ratifica tion action of their predecessors. The Demo cratic party lives now only in trouble, and can prolong its existence ouly by prolonging disorder and oonfnsion. Taking for granted this act on their part, in several sections of the country the news papers are booioning to agitate the dis cession of the old question, whether a State oan rescind its affirmative action at any time previous to the Presidential proclamat • formally announcing that the amendment has been duly adopted. This question has already been settled by inferential precedent. It haa anyhow beeu dutermiuod by the people for themselves that it cannot be done; teat indefinite soc-snwing will not be allowed Even if this firm resolve had not been very generally arrived at and announced throughout the press of the country, the question is not at present a vflry practically dangerous one. The whole number of States is thirty-seven, of which it requires twenty eight to make the constitutional three-fourths. Of these twenty- one have already acted affirmatively, vis: Ala bama, Arkansan, Connecticut, Florida, Illx. now, Indiana, Kansas, Louisiana. Maine, Mas sachusetts, Michigan, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Penn sylvania, South Carolina, Virginia, West Vir ginia, and Wisconsin. Three bavo rejected-DoluwAre, Kentucky, and Ohio. Of the reiuaiuiog thirteen Ver mont, Iowa, Minnesota. Nebraska, aud Rhode Island —five—are good for us. This makes twenty-six. Mississippi and Texas must ratify as a condition of restoration - this innkos twenty-eight; aud if till those cau be heard from before January 1, 1870, until which time the Legislature cf New York can do nothiug, the matter ia settled aud the trouble over. If, however, that cannot be done, and New York should ask to withdraw her vote, the amendment ia not yet in absolute danger, even allowing that there Is any force or mean- iug in tho attempt to resoind. California, Oregon, Delaware,|New Jersey, and Maryland are against ns, probably without hops; but there yet remain to be heard from Georgia, Ohio, and Tennesaeo, in all of which we have a fair chance, and m one almost a certainty of •uooess. Should either Georgia, Ohio, or Tennessee range themselves with the loyal column, it matters not what New York docs or tries to do. — Washington Chronicle, Nor. 28. Influence of ftaallght. In his lecture on this sabjccl, Dr. Griseom said: “8unlight, particularly in dwellings, has become absolutely ae—ary to health and comfort*” Tho lecturer illustrated how car bonic acid gat Is deleterious to human life, by exhaling into a bottle the air from his longs and then placing a light therein, whioh was immediately extinguished. The life of a liv ing insect, he said, Oould have besn extin guished there with equal rapidity.

When the eyres ache or pain throngh the action of a bright light, such aa to reflected from the snow, sunny weather, white paper, and in reading, writing or sewing, or vivid colored bodies; these lenses, by softening tho rays, effect a moot agreeable sensation and give great relief. 4. These Spectacles are ■cicntllically ad. justed to every ease of defective sight with unerring accuracy, whether arising from age, strain, over work, or premature decay, by Morris Bernhardt and exact principle, ontlroly htoown, which has seldom tailed in he /wiwt. 5. After several years of public practice, adjusting spectacles to patients under every aspect of defective vision, as well as experience In an extensive, long-established business in his Optical btoree, both here and in Europe, M. Bernhardt considers It a suffi cient guarantee of his ability to supply such glasses as are best calculated for tho assistance of imporfect sight. O. M. Bcrmhardt, to algaallae himself from the host of pretenders in his profession, with pride submits for Inspection, copies of testimonials he has reoeived from medical gentlemen or the most un questionable respectability and talent In America; also, a number of certificates from wall known gentle men of distinction who have need his spectacle*—the originals of all which he will be happy to allow to those who may request it The use of any of the fob lowing names or certificates hereunto affixed, without an actual possession of the earns, would be a forgery, a capital offonce, punishable by Stato imprisonment.
