A learned writer, discoursing upon this very subject, brings forward some strong points against the uncharitable and cruel world towards theso unfortunate people. We quote ono argument, and the reader can draw his own conclusions os to its correctness: "And tho Scribes and Pharisees brought nnto him awoman taken in adul tery, in the very act " ‘Now Moses in tho law commanded as that such be stoned; but what sayeat tbon ?' "Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. So when they contin ued asking him, he lifted up himself and said unto them— "He that is without sin among you, lot him, first cast a stone.” Without what sfu f Not all sins in general, but uno sin in particular. The hypocrites, every one of them, liad sinned it. And, furthermore, most men sinoo then have been tho liko sinners, and are to this day. "And again he stooped down, anil wrote on the ground, and they which beard it, being convicted by tbeir own oonscienca, went opt one by one, liegiu- nlng at the eldest, even nnto the lost; and Jesus was left alone, and tho woman standing in the midst. Whon Jesus hail lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, no said unto her: “ 'Woman, who are those tbino ncau- irs f Hath no man condemned thee ?’ “ Sho said : V ‘No man. Lord.” “ And Jesus said onto her : “ • Neither do I ooudonm thee ; go, and sin no more."’ " They say unto him, Muster, this wo man was taken in adultery, in the very act.” If so, then not only tho woman was taken, bnt also the man. Bnt what bo- camo of the man ? The woman was dragged to tho temple to be stonod. Tho man probably went away among hit companions to langli. Indeed, there is no evidoneo that he was not her chief accuser, and the ringleader in her pun ishment. Now let us pojat the moral which adorns this tola. If fbo woman's crime merits martyrdom, what docs the man's ? If s)ie was a tinner, \yhut waa he? And yet how does the world judge between the two culprite f Ah, now ei then, and ia every aneli aeso the Borlbcs and Thar- moot together to forgive tho man, and then go away and leave it to Christ alone lo forgive the woman. But tho Mayor introdnoed tho latter day argument, whiob settled all the lii blc talk of the moralist, by announcing $10 and oast, and leave tho city, or $00 and aorta If they refusod to go.

The weather yesterday was lovely—re minding one of a balmy April day. The st.eets presented a lively and nourishing aspect. • We take pleasure in laying before our readers, this morning, tliu following sound document, and heartily commend it to the Democrats, not only of the Firat Ward, but of the whole city. If Col. Fears’ suggestions are followed, wo will linvo a city government composed of good men end sound Democrats, which will reflect credit upon Atlanta and the State : TO THE DEM OCHA VS or THE FUST WABD. The Chairman of tho Executive Com mittoe of the Democratic Chib of the First Ward lias seen red a hall at the Min- renl Hpring, and names next Monday night for our next meeting. Tho hall is central and ample in its accommodations, and hereafter we will expeet a Urge tarn out from all parts of the Ward. OorClab is not organised in the inter est of any person or locality; bnt In tbs interest of the First Ward, and of the city, whiob we believe con best be inb- servafl by securing a Democratic admin istration in our next municipal election. To secure this is our object, and we deem it proper to make a few suggestions as to the course to be pursued. It is not denied that we ore in the ma jority in tbo Ward and in the city; so whether tho election is by Wards or for the whole ticket, all wo have to do is to act together, and wc will bo sure to have a Democratic Mayor and Council. But how aro we to have this concert of setion? The answer is, by arousing every Democrat to the imperative necessity of individual action—an active, personal par ticipation in the nomination and election of Municipal officers. Let every Demo- cract who has the interest of his Ward and of the city at heart, attend all meet ings of the party, and do what he can to secure tho nomination of our best men and aoundost Democrats. It bos been very common of Into years after a nomination has been made to hear a great howl about not having nom inated competent and acceptable men. This should not be so. If every Dem ocrat would do his duty and attend th* nomination, the best men could and would be nominated. Then thero would be no occasion for citizens aud Independent Tickets; for it is idle to talk about a man having sufficient popularity aud merit to bo elected on au Independent Ticket, by Democratic votes, who could not by the same votes be nominated. But it is said that men go to election* wbo will not attend nominations. I do not believe this is true of uny Democrat wbo is willing to do bis duty. But if it is true, it is wrong, for by neglecting to put in nomination proper men, there is always ao ssrciise lor citizens on Indepen dent Tickets, which is calculated to bo divide tho party us to givu tho Radicals an easy victory. Then let the whole party torn out, and let every man do his whole duty, and se lect competent and honest men, aud good Democrats for candidates. Let tho selection bo fairly and honestly made, and when made, lot every Democrat put his shoulder to the wheel nnd keep it thero nntil the election is over, and a Democratic vic tory will Ik) the result Let us liavo no grumbling after tbc nomination. The will of tho majority fairly expressed, is the will of every man ill the party. This is nn old and honored rule with onr porty. There is ono other precaution which I think proper to be taken, aud that is, givu no man yonr votes in tho nomina tion uulcss ho agrees to abide by it; for, unless bo is willing to submit to this test of fidelity to tho party, he is not a good Democrat. Iu cuneliwivii, )t| mo bog ouch and every Bemocrat to attend tho mootings of our club, and let us counsel together on theso important mutters. Aid us in organising llie party and adding to its fences, nnd whon tho day of election comes, with tho Democratic lines drawn up, every mini in place and no stragglers, wo will march lo uu easy and honorable victory.

Tho Mar shall was instructed to open the street according to tho surroy. Col.

CoL Howard, who bus been arousing the people to the importance of scientific agriculture in a series of brilliant and most telling lecture?, closed his labors for the Atiuntu Industrial Association in an addre s at Gainesville, last Wednes day. Not having a largo audience ia the morning—tho hour appointed—at the suggestion of somo one, tho address was deferred until evening, when town and country exerted themselves until the court house was filled to overflowing. To the furmers ho spoko of the natu ral advantages afforded in that mountain ous country for sbosjfiruising; of the al most miraculous fruits of the use of fer tilizers, and adjured them to aroasc themselves in the growing interest mani fested in scieulific funning everywhere, until many of the most prominent citi zens of the place thanked him, and again resolved to revive the drooping spirits of their agricultural society. Tbc ladies were not overlooked, bat received wholesome advice, for which they showed their appreciation by their smiles and applause. Col. Howard has done a gcod work for the Atlanta Fair. The nature of a sub ject seems no consideration with him.— He is eloqnent in all. Gnc of onr young townsmen, who has no prediliction for farming, expressed himself perfectly apell-bound. Nallonul Agricultural Congr This body held a meeting in Nashville, Tennessee, this week, and perfected its organization. We observe that Mr. Oli ver H. Jones, o( this city, and one of our best known and most popular citi zens, was honored with the distinction of Vice President. Among tho other gen tlemen thus honored we notice tho names of ex-Governor IL M. Patton, of Ala bama, and General John S. Marmaduke, of St. Louis, Into of tho Confederate army. From gentlemen who were in attend ance upon this Congress und upon the Nashville Fair, we learn that great inter est is manifested among the people of Tennessee in regard to our Atlanta Fair, also in regard to tho Georgia State Fair. There will be a great many Tennesseeans in attendance upon both. Quite a number of fine horses will also be brought down, among which are the bay marc Tennessee, from Nashville ; the dan horse Rattler, from Bowling Green ; and Chieftain, a promising bay colt belonging to John Overton, of Nash ville. It is also very probable that Pilot Temple w ill visit both the Atlanta and Macon Fairs. Air* Samuel A. ACrUols. It is always a source of gratification to observe, out of tho host of idle, thoght- lcss, prodigal and improvident young meD, one who is truly enterprising and commendably ambitions. There are few in our city more deserving of such con sideration than our young townsman, Samuel A. Echols. Only a few yeurs since, he came hero almost friendless and almost without an acquaintance; yet by industry, perseverance nnd his perso- vering spirit he 1ms ingratiated himself into the confidence and esteem of our first citizens and the public at large. Aside from his succoss ss u dealer iu agri cultural implements, Ac., ho ha* won distinction, not only at homo, but abroad, in his agricultural monthly, tho 11 urnl Southerner, Only recently uu extensiva manufac turing establishment in Dublin, Ireland, lias made a proposition to him to employ him to writo a work on the “History and Management of Cotton and Tobacco in the Southern States,” tho work to bo published in Ireland.
