Saturday came in as bright at a wed
ding dsy. The city was rejoicing in its
parity. The town clock, unembarrassed
by a guilty conscience, rang out the hour
of ten with a merrier peel, and aroused
His Honor from dreams, Wherein ho saw
the people mingling in harmony nnd
goodfwill; no bickerings and strifu as if
days gone by. Ha sallied forth, radiant
with the ides of refarn.
As we entered the Hell, where in former
times (“ah! that was in the long *goO

we beheld a joyful spectacle. The place
looked

There were Jonsen and Pat Fitegil

not a word.' An Wm eblitary an.
Not another being was to ^e seen, save
His Honor, Who, with' fluttering pinion*
hovered over the aeene, his brow beam
ing with a radiant halo of triumph over
vioe and immorality,
The place was too sacred. We dared
sot enter; wo only looked in and were
overwhelmed with the spectacle. His
Honor was victorious, his enemies were
vanquished, and in his transfiguration
his mighty ally “ten and costs," had
been embalmed the brightest jewelin

The city is rife with rumor* which
have prevailed ever sinoe Saturday, that
H. I. Kimball has failed. It is said that
his habfiitios are abowi a million of dol
lars; that several days ago he made an
assignment of ths Brunswick and Albany
Bailroad, to the “Georgia Contracting
Company,” or*to Lyon k McLendon,
contractors—transferring the whole rood
sad equipments to secure what he was
owing them; that this assignment is mads
with an understanding that he be allowed
to pay up and take beck the road in thirty
days ; that the Chicago fire ia the imme
diate eeoee of thie failure—he haring
made arrangements in Europe to have
170,000 per month placed to his credit
to New Yolk, for the sale to London of
the bonis he owns, bat the bnrning of
that city produced a panio in the money
market, and a failure to comply with the
oontnet; that his paper bos gone to pro
test several times of late—having failed
to meet aooepted drafts; that he is
now in New York for the purpose of
making a final effort to sell the State
end dty bond* whiehhe Isolde or con
trols, in order to realize and meet his
pressing demands—failing in which he
will mekean assignment of all his effects;
that the Kimball House has long sine*
passed out qf hi* hands, *(*., etc.
Ws know not what foundation there i*
for the truth of these reports, but they are
in everybody,t mouth in the city, and *

When the city of Atlanta contracted
with H. L Kimball to finish and fit np
the Open Honae building fog the nee of
the Legislature for ten yean, agreeing to
pay him a yearly rental of $10,000, the
city authorities advanced to him $30,000

of rent to advene* in order to enable
