All the morniug parties of boys and girls and young gentlemen and young ladies were engaged in snowballing, aud every one who participated enjoyed the fun. There were a few couples who took to sleigh-riding, but tbesnow was rather thin for this amusement In the afternoon the snow melted so rapidly that by night there was scarcely any on the ground.

Atlanta and tho Snow. Atlanta, Beoember 6.—Atlanta has been cov ered with snow since Friday evening, and this morning is covered about ten inches deep in its immaculate mantle. The clouds have clcare away ami the sun shines out bright and warm causing a blinding reflection anti vapidly thaw ing the snow. Mucli damage has resulted to telegraph and telephone lines. All over the oitv men ore engaged shoveling snow from the roofs ot huildiugs; and as the great shovelfuls go crushing down through the wires, already sagging with their weight of ice, they snap like strings. It is Inn for the men on the roofs, who are making from fifty cents to a dollar an hour, but is rather solemn for the telephone company. Several severe accidents have resulted from tlie weight of snow on the roofs, amt property owners aro having their houses cleared aa rapid ly' as hands can be obtained. Saturday night the roof of W. P. Jones’ liverv stable fell in upon his vehicles, smashing up about $6000 worth of carriages and buggies. Last night Mr. John Ryan was ou lop of a building ou Whitehall street. superin tending the removal of the snow, and stepped upon a skylight which was hidden by the snow, and wtiich was not stout enough to bear his weight, and he tell through fifteen feet in the store, sustaining pain ful injuries This morning the shed in front of the freight department at the union depot fell iu, hurting several persons. Sleigh riding, coasting and snow balling are the order of the day. The Investigation. Atlanta, December 6.—The joint legislative investigating committee again failed to got a quorum this evening. Col. Hammond, who is obliged to leave for Washington, obtained per mission to dictate his argument in the case to tho committee’s stenographer, which he did. Briefly outlined it is llrst a review of the legisla tion touching the new capitol, showing that it was the intention of the legislature to have Geor gia material used iu the capitol if it could be obtained on equal terms. Then a review of Uen. Phil. Cook's interview in which lie set out that the capitol commission desired Georgia material but were constrained by an inadequate appropriation. Then Gov. Mc Daniel’s message in which lie said the commis sion in their contest with Miles and Harnc liuvo wisely reserved the right to eliungc the building stone. That upon this foundation Mr. Harrison had cause to make an elforl to change the ma terial. That every citizen has right to petition the legislature and where lie does not know now himself to employ counsel to do so for him. That there \vv no ele ments of lobbying in his effort and all he did was clearly legitimate. That Bisaner’s affidavit was a lie out of the whole cloth as shown by his own and other testimony. That Eager to-tifled that Mr. Harrison came to him ill the spring of ’83 to secure Mr. Clement’s co operation. when he and Mr. llarriun were en- etnie- at the time, and all of the other testimony shows that the whole affair occurred in Decem ber, ’84. All the circuinslauoes make Eager’s statement too bold for a fool to believe. That the use of newspaper columns for the publication of articles to mould pub lic opinion was clearly legitimate. That nothing that has been developed Iras in tile slightest manner implicated Judge Fain or Sen ator Rankin, or in any way impaired their faith fulness ami reputation as public officials. That the invest Ration was due to the fair fame of the state and the reputations of the gentlemen in volved, and it was proper that it should have been had. Furniture at Auction To-Day. We will sell in front of our auction house at 10 o’clock to-day a choice lot of Furniture, consist ing of one Marble-top Bed Room Suit, one Side board, Bedsteads, Mattresses, Chairs, Tables, Ac.; also a lot of good Kitchen Furniture, and one second-hand Carpet; also one good Top Buggy and Harnes , and one good one-horse Wagon.
