At s great Fourth of July celebration here, yeater- di.co-er. but it .rents th.t we cannot le.rn by the ! 0errett Smith, in hi. address, touched on the hiatorif the past. Is it because we have not learned, or is in account of tbe same feeling which made the artiitahose business it waa to make Gods for the Ephesie. proclaim, “Great is Diana of the Ephe sians V‘They did not want to loose their occupa tion. Let lexamine, so fkr a9 we can, by word descrip tion, tk “new experiment” which. “No stockholder in eitk road” saya. “It is questionable ahetber partieawning property along the streets proposed to bs travsed, will silently allow thia new experiment of a tr* twelve feet high, to be placed in iront of their bino.-s houses and residences.” Thia ml. if we understand it properly, is to be well coitructed, not unsightly, not even as toisy as the comon street car, absolutely safe, as it is a rail road wi out an accident in its history; having been running! different places for two years; and at the Cincinui Exposition in 1871, there were over twenty- five thtxand persona rode upon it in four weeks, and tbe traewas there, twenty-five feet high in “Fower Hall.” After thorough examination the managers of thi Expo# tion permitted this “new experinnt” to be placed twenty-five feet above t> tens of thousands of people who were to walk ucer it; and it proved the great attraction at this Expsition. But 1< ua notice carefully thia twelve feet elevation, about wich this writer seems most concerned. New Yorkersiave tried the elevation question to the tune of near ne and a half million of dollars per mile, aud are to-dy running thirty two engines at au elevation of moroban twelve feet, along Washington street, croasiniWarren and other streets. The Council of the citjpt Opelika. Alabama, gave its consent for this “new eperiment” to be tried in that city; and to-day there ist mile of road in successful operation in that growins town. Citizens along the streets which it traveras do not object or protest; and there baa al ready ben a proposition made by one of the leading citir.enun Opelika to take stock in a Company to ex tend ne road on the street upou which he lives, tht he may rida home every evening and out j every noruing; and we would say just here that this gentlemn weighs considerably over two hundred. We wil aay, however, that one farther removed from a Falsttf could hardly be found. Thia ind of street road has merits which canDot be overloaed. First—You are above tbe street—out of the way of pedestians, horsemen and carriages. Secoad.—'While traveling, thus elevated, you aie free fren the dust, which ia frequently intolerable lu the couznou street cars. Thirc—1 here will be but a small apace taken up by the poas, and that just at the guttering. These oertainly merit attention. Can we assert either ot these merits for the street cars which zun on the ground in the mid street? jWtd ga—f abkarriMAAld Mr. -No Htockholder in either Com pan y” produce against elevated street rail way** First— It would be placed in front of business houses and residence. But he did not show that thia would be any more objectionable than a line of telegraph posts in front and no one objects to these aa they are necessary. Second.—And this is the great, ugly monstrous thing. “Thatthere would be tiept to ascend, that we might enter tbs caret” This certainly cannot be rendered aa an objection when it is remonbered that the pedestrian must walk to the middle o; tbe street to get aboard of tbe ordi nary street cars, taking more steps than would Lave to be taken to get to the car at any time—and when we remember hew pleasant it is on the elevated street car after we reached it, above dust and tbe nice riding. We think nothing of the trouble to get up— yea, we think tlat even “Misses. Fat, Fair aud Forty,” would be trilling to risk meeting crem a h\ill- rtaff, that she migkt take tbe nice, pleasant ride after wards. Now, let us see if there are not objections to Laving tbe cars running io the street on tbe ground: First.—That awful dust. Second.—Tbe trouble to pedestrians and carriages. One or two stable men have said here in the last week that th* coat to them per annum waa one thousand dollars more than before the street car# began run ning; these gentlemen’s names can be given if neces sary, and two pbyticiana here say that they are injured greatly, because their boggy wheels are wrenched by the iron tracks of the street roads. We might say that the general complaint come* from all who drive in the atraets. Third. Not many months have passed since a pair of horses ran with a at rest car and naver stopped until they broke loose from the car, and alter running some distance landed about twelve feet below the surface of the earth into Mr. Moore's basement, one upon the top of the other; and several other occasions might be mentioned of mules running away, breaking loose from th* cars and frightening people and doing dam age. That elevated car team will not run away. Many other things might be men turned, such as grading down streets, leaving citizen's houses upon high banks; and the city of Atlanta has paid several on Long Cuban question, arraigning the Administration for coldness towards the cause of Cuban independence, while allowing guuboata to be lilted out in New York for Spanish use. Cuba, by maintaining a successful resistance for nearly five years, bad earned tLe recog nition of belligerent rights. He hoped that if tbe sense of tbe Government hesitated that the people would take up the Cuban cause auil force the Govern ment to act. A resolution was adopted expressing sympathy with Cuba, and calling on the Government to acknowledge tbe belligerency, if. indeed, not the independence of j tal. and reported Cuba. In Illinois. Chicago, July 3, 1873. There were large gatherings of farmers at Spring- field, Galesburg, Pontiac, Champion, Knoxville, and other place* in Illinois yesterday, who celebrated by listening to speeches upon a farmers’ movement and a railroad question. Several accidents happened hero yesterday, the most serious of which waa the shooting and, it is thought, fatally wounding of a boy by a young man who was shooting at a mark. At the federal Capital. Waihisgton, July 4, 1873. AU the members of tbe Cabinet were out of town to day, and no public celebration waa held. The Oldest Inhabitants' Association, in accordance with their usual custom, met and had appropriate ceremonies. Fic-nic parties passed the dsy in the neighboring groves. The Knights of St. Patrick paraded in full regalia, and marched to the Scheutzen Park, where they held a picnic, which was attended by a large number. The colored Sunday School Union held their annual celebration at Lincoln Hall, and the Catholic colored Sunday 8chool celebrated the day in the lot south of the Executive Mansion.

We are glad to report that up to the present writing not a case of cholera has been reported in Atlanta. We have made diligent inquiry but have failed to learn of anything more than cholera morbus and the other intestinal diseases usual during the summer months. While there has been, and still is, some uneasiness in the public mind, and an almost ludicrous rush to purchase “Cholera medicines,” the public mind is not at ail excited by fears that the disease will become epidemic here. We expect to hear of other cases, similar to that of the unfortuuate lady who died in the city a few days ago; but we still bold to the opin ion that Atlanta will continue free from the disease.
