J. Benin Smith, General Editor Atlanta
Sun:
Drab 8n : It ia with pleasure that I
forward to 70a the inclosed list of sub-
•chben, amounting in number to one
hundred and four, with draft on Mew
York for 9101 to pay their subscription
for one year to Tax Wuklt Sun.
Only a few days since your paper
reached our town, through Judge Mo-
Quire, the only subscriber here at the
time, and almost without exertion the
list herewith inclosed was obtained.
The people of Texas ore thoroughly
aroused on the question of politics, and
will hail with delight the sppearsneo of
your paper, which so truly reflects the
polioy to be pursued to insure tho con
tinuation of a republican government, as
established by Jefferson and our other
fathers of 1776.
t The arguments of Mr. Stephens on
the abomination of the “Mew Depar
ture, fraudulent amendments,
are so clear and conclusive that the most
“wayward” who reads can readily un-
rent situation and the real
issue.

thoStaod it hag Mien for the constitu
tional nghhLm oor people.

We have no doubt—notwithstanding
the short time Tiib Sun has been under
its present management, and the obsta
cles above alluded to—that our circula

in this city, and very nearly equal to that

Important Artiom.
On Sstunlay morning tho Hoard —
President Campbell Wallace is the
chair—held a mooting at tho banking
house of John H. James, at which the
resignations of Thos. Alexander, Charles
W. Wells, and A. M. Hpeighfs were ac
cepted, and these vacancies Ailed accord
ing to the terms of the Charter and By-
Laws, by the election of Col. Geo. W.
Adair, Judge Julius A. Hayden, and
Maj. William J. Garrett, eaoh of whom
aocepted the position, and will heartily
exert ell their energies and influence to
posh the work forward.
These are the right kind of men,
among our best citizens, having financial
ability, credit, inflnenoe and reputation,
which are not conflnod to this city; men
too, of first class business qualifications
ho are able to take hold ofjudicioualy,
and wield advantageously, great financial
enterprises. We congratulate the Board,
the city and tho country upon this very
proper selection of men to fill the vu
osncics. They will be acceptable to
every true friend of the lload.
And hero let ns say a word for two of
the members who have resignad, we
allude to Mr. Wells and Mr. Speights,
and in doing so, we speak
by their authority. They aocepted the
poaitions tendered them by the Council,
with a full determiuation to do all they
could for tho road in any and every way.
It was a position new to them, nnd they
did not, at the time, comprehend thu
great responsibilities it would impose;
and this is a mutter upon which the City
Council in its corporate capacity does not
appear to have reflected upon.
As soon ss they saw that others might
perhaps be able to serve the company
more efficiently, or that somo persons in
the community were of that opinion, they
at onco tendered their resignations. They
acted patriotically throughout, mul
deserve, nnd have, the good opinion
of tho community. They have shown
themselves entitled to the same—shown
that they huvo no desires, no aims, no
ambition that will for a moment be per
mitted to stand in tbo way of the publio
good or tbo interest of the road—not
oven if it exist in imagination ouly.
In the afternoon another mooting was
held, at which ull necessary business was
transacted. Each one was enthused, uud
determined to push the work vigorously.
Highly encouraging reports were made.
The engineers are hard at work, and uro
finding a much better route than was an
ticipated; nnd what is most encouraging
of all, there is every reason to be
lieve, and to feel full confidence, that
if Georgia will build tho road to the Al
abama line, it will certainly be completed
to Elyton without any unnecessary fie
lay.
Tho following committees were ap
pointed :

i A Crying Nul.unrr.
Tho myriads of little negroes, and
some large ones, too, with a right smart
sprinkling of- white trash, who daily
throng the streets, block up tbo cross
ings, and are generally disagreeable nnd
worthless, should be looked after by the
authorities, or their parents. At the
least little unnsnol occurrence or
excitemeut, they orowd up and
around and rush nnd tumble headlong
like so many wild things. How these
loafers get their liviug, and who are re
sponsible for their conduct, is a fit ques
tion for muniei|ud legislation. We have
no objeotion to see boys lively and enjoy
themselves, but there is u bound to such
tilings, and it ought to l>e observed.

and have always been solvent.

Lost week the Superior Court, Judge
Hopkins presiding, was in session at
Jonesboro, and will continue this week.
All of last week was consumed in the
trial of Henry J. Higbie, charged with
the murder of C. A. Dollar- resulting in
a verdict of acquittal, which was render
ed aliout 9 o’clock Saturday.
Mr. Dollar came to his death on the
1st day of Ootober last, in an altercation
or difficulty with Mr. Hughie—the cir
cumstances of why* are remembered by
the community.
There was great difficulty in selecting
a jury, and almost the whole county was
exhausted before it was completed.—
Nearly every man had formed or expres
sed an opinion. Finally, a very intelli
gent and satisfactory jury was empaneled
and the trial progressed patiently, with
an immense crowd to witness it from first
to lust, though all was quiet and no de
monstration of any kind from first to lost
The evidence closed late Friday even
ing, and argument proceeded, followed
by the Judge’s charge, which was given
to the jury at one o’clock in the night.
There were no less than 36 witnesses ex
amined.
Tho following are the attorneys in the
cose :
For the State: Solicitor General How
ell, Col. J. D. Stewart of Griffin, Col.
J. L. Doyul of Jonesboro, and R. T. Dor
sey of Fayetteville.
For tho defense : Tidwell and Fears of
Fayetteville, Hulsey k Tiguer, M. P.

and J. L. Blalock and Q. C. Greer of
Fayetteville.
The Street llallroad.
This institution is now in successful
operation, mid cars are running regular
ly. They appear to bo crowded each
way and every trip. Yesterday, being
Sunday, the negroes did most of the rid
ing, to tho exclusion of white folks.—
Aud right here, would it not be a good
idea to have a different arrangement for
the accommodations of tho colored folks?
Say, have a separate car or a division of
those already in use. The way the thing
ia now will exclude white people, and
particularly ladies, from the cars. Wo
believe' the present arrangement is to be
only temporary, at least we hope so.
Vol. Dunning, Superintendent of the
Atlanta Agricultural and Industrial As
sociation, desires the residents of the
city, who design exhibiting at the coming
fair, to make then entries at as early day
is convient, so that the entries may be
recorded and space assigned before the
busy days immediately preceding the
Fair. The books are open at the office
of tho Secretary, Samuel Echols, on Broad
street.
Wc inspected on Saturday morning a
narrow gauge passenger conch which was
in transit for tho Tuskegco Railroad. It
was a neat, cosy little uffair, supplied
with all tho latest conveniences of modern
railroad improvements. The seats wero
on each side, after the manuer of a street
omnibus, with arms between each. It
will scut thirty-four passengers, is 30 feet
long, G feet G inches wide, 10 feet ami G
inches high, with raised roof, and weighs
only 14,000 pounds. The main sills ure
twenty-seven inches above the rails of
of the track, which is eighteen inches
less than is customary on broad guage
roads. The wheels ore twenty-four inches
in diameter, and the whole constructed
to run with tho greatest ease. The yosfc
is about $2,500.
Tho baggage, mail and express car is
built after precisely the same model as
ia now used on tho broad gauge. The
car is from the celebrated works of Jack
son, Sliarjte & Co., of Wilmington, Del.,
who make tho narrow guage rolling stock
a specialty. This coach certainly does
credit to the manufacturers. It went
dowu to Tuskegoe on the Saturday even
ing train, and will be put in commission
this week.

opens this morning. The prospects have
never been more flattering. Tho very
able coqw of teachers is a guarantee of

The Ladies' Relief Society of Atlan
ta Mrs. Win. Solomon, President, aud
Miss N. Peters, Secretary—which was
organized last March—has been carried
ou since that time by a few ladies who
desire by this method to give their pat
rons, and the publio generally, some ac
count of what they have done.
During tho cold weather, shoes and
clothing were furnished to forty or fifty
children, who wero thus fitted out for
Suuduy School, which they were made to
ntteml.
Alxrat fifteen or twenty families were
assisted iu their house rent, aud by this
means kept from being turned into tho
streets; and many poor people were visit
ed iu different parts of tho city. Some
wore fouud in a starving and half-frozen
condition, with neither food nor wood in
their houses. To these orders for pro
visions wero given, aud wood furnished
by the Society.
Many of our citizens havo liccome
monthly subscribers to tho Society, aud
give from 25 cento to $1.00 per month.
Will not others oomc forward and help
with contributions of money and old
clothes to keep tho Society iu oj>eration ?
To those subscribers who have not paid
their dues for the past four mouths, wo
will say that the Society is iu grout need
of funds, and we earnestly beg them to
send the amount due at their earliest eon-
veuience, either to Miss Sarah Jones,
Treasurer, or to the President
A meeting of the Society will bo held

who are interested arc cordially invited
to attend.

Special Diapatch to the Daily Adverti*cr.
Washington, September G.—Ik is ru
mored here to-night that Kimball’s cred
itors are making preparations to seize
his Brunswick Railroad. A near relative
of Kimball’s expresses the opinion that
he (Kimball) has certainly failed. It is
said that over forty of Kimball’s cred
itor in New York prepared to nub him,
but he slipped through their fingers aud
escaped to Europe.
It is said that Kimball has gone to
Europe for the purpose of negotiating
the Georgia bonds which he received os
State aid to his railroad; also his four
hundred thousand dollars Atlanta real
estate improvement bonds. If Kimball
operates successfully in Europe, it will
be in effect, withdrawing all his money
from Georgia aud Jeaviug his creditors
to whistle for theirs.
Bullock asserts that Kimball is, or will
be, oil right when he reaches Europe;
but this is doubtful, as dispatches have
l>een sent to London warning them of
his approach, which may have the effect
of defeating his schemes.
