These will perhaps serve as a nucleus aronnd which to rally a powerful host for Dennis’ slaughtering on Monday morning. On Friday night a colored man died from the effects of eating a quantity of ice. He had had measles, and was just able to get about, and feeling unusually hot, took home with him a lump of ice, and was dead in two hours after eating of it. Robbery.—The residence of Mary Lee, colored, corner t of Grubb and Cone streets, was entered and robbed on two nights of last week by burglars. One of the burglars carried a lantern, while the other did the thieving. A good policeman might atop these rascals. The class of people know as “drammera" or com* msrcial travelers, are noproperly appreciated in every community, and stiUesa, some times by their employers. When it is tala into consideration that this very set ef “beats” spd more money amongst all classes, and are reaUjthe only motive power in dull times, it is strange th. people have so little res pect for them, and that th< are made the butt ef many a joke to which they armot entitled. Our sympa thies are with the averagelrummer. We know some thing of what he endureiand what he has to under go. Especially do we par out our hearts for him during the duil eeasens. here are times when "bos ses’* are cross and custoers slow, money is scarce and trade is dull. All th< explanations and excuses which can be given io ft a bad trip, appear to fall short of appeasing the ;uidity of the employer. At the present time xae is a little dull—in tact, a little duller than aoy dmmer of the present day hae experienced; and deep) their almost inexhaustible resources and inventiol they are often compelled to yield to the pressure d these stagnant times. This class of our fellow cittens has our unqualified sym pathies, and to show ur sincerity for them, and at the same time a spe< of encouragement, we repro duce a scene which occrred in a leading store of this city a few days ago. One of these travelii missionaries returned from a trip for Thistle, Bro. . Co., and did not show a very large exhibit of orders) balance the liberal expense j account allowed himy the firm, and Mr. Thistle, j after looking over his tarn, said: I “Mr. Rataplan, I aiafraid you do not approach the , dealers in the right w; I used to be very successful the j i n this line. Now, juisuppose me to be Mr. Bighler, of Sellout, Alabama, id show me the way you intro duce the house.” Accordingly Raiaph stepped out of the couuting room and re enterechat in baud, inquiring, *' is Mr. Bighler in ?“ “That is my ntxe said Thistle, urbanely. “ My name is KRalan, sir; I represent the house of Thistle Bros, k Ca, >f Atianta.” Thistle, in his char acter of Atlanta orchsnt, here rose, offered the salesman a chair, c expressed his pleasure at seeing him. “I am stoppingvith Overcharge, at the Stickem House, and have. fins unbroken lot of samples which I would like) show you; thiuk we cau offer you some special aiantages, etc.” And Rataplan de livered himself ok nett speech in a professional style. “ Very well, veryell,* said Thistle; “I don't see but that you unde:andthe way to get at customers.” "Excuse me, 1. Tlistle,” said Rataplan, "I am afraid you do not derstand the style of Atlanta mer chants just nowupprae you exchange places with me, and we repeahis rehearsal.” “Certainly,” » ThiHle, and picking up his bat, he stepped out. eturnmg, be found Rataplan with his chair tilted Ik, ha: cocked fiercely over his right eye, his heels plied on Thistle’s polished desk, and a lighted cigar tween his teeth. Thistle lookeclittle staggered, but nevertheless he commenced: “Is Mr. Bigbin?” ^ “Yes, he is/esponded Rataplan, blowing a cloud of pure Connscut into Thistle’s eyes. “ Who in are you ?’ “ I represerhs house of T&istle Brothers A Co.,” •aid the aetocied employer, coughing out about a quart of sroofrcm his throat. “The blaziyou do!

Negro Drowned.—Friday afternoon a colored mao went in bathing with several of his fellows, in a pond out on the McDonough road, and going beyond his depth was drowned. He was unable to swim. Before his friends c-'uld get him out he sank, and was taken out dead.

By order of J. A. Fittest, l. H. Bece, Captain. 1st 8erg’t. The Street Committee of the City Council are wide awake, and the longer they remain in their present position the more good they accomplish. Yesterday the very dangerous and ugly place at the northern extremity of the Broad street bridge was securely fenced up, and numerous old planks in the bridge were replaced by new ones. THE MAN WITH THE BLACK VALISE must certainly have sent his baggage by Thursday’* afternoon train to Macon. If he had been aboard himself your correspondent might now be a mare wreck. ON THE HOT AFTERNOON OF THURSDAY, as the unsuspecting passengers were being rapidly carried from Bear Creek to Griffin, the shrill whistle of the locomotive told na that danger was ahead, and that valuable human life was in peril of being sacri ficed to the grazing privileges of some wretched cow. ON WE PLUNGED into a herd of cattle, when the dull thud told us that we had brushed the obstruction aside. A MANGLED COW, writhing on the side of the track, told the sad tale, and we breathed freer. The man’s valise was not through its work though, for we had not proceeded far before we were again warned to be prepared for accident. This time we were after horse flesh. Now, a horse on the West End street railroad excites no alarm* but to chase down a horse at the rate of thirty miles an hour, on a fast passenger train, is no smiling matter- THE HORSE WAS CAUGHT, and thanks to a kind Providence was also gently laid on the side of the tTAck, broken and bruised ; aud all for grass. THE SPECTRAL BULL. It is a standing joke on the Macon and Wsgtern Railroad that Conductor Croft sees, on bis night trips, a phantom bull, standing on the track where he (Davy Crolt) was so nicely brushed aside one night by said bullock. “ Revenge ” has been his motto ever since, and the engineer has standing orders to run over the first bull that he can successfully. This last attempt although a failure in gender, has greatly mitigated our faithful conductor’s revengeful feelings. But cows aside. SHALL WE HAVE A STOCK LAW? Or shall precious human life be daily endangered to give roainirg cattle the privilege to grass on tho “right of way” of onr railroads? The incidents above were not all the alarms we had, for onr engineer was screaming at cattle to the end of our journey. Yast numbers of them are roaming up and down the Ha- and Western Railroad, and if some day you are notified of a “terrible accident” from this cause, you need not be astonished, for it is a natural consequence to railroad obstructions. Kap. “ No, air, B not,” said Thistle. “ Well, it’a-d lucky for you that you are not; for I've had twovmmeri to one customer in my store for the last t months, and if I could get hold of of the blast fools that send ’em out here at this time, I’m deed i! I wouldn’t boot him clean out of the town of Boat.” “That’ll i that’ll do, Mr. Rataplan,” said Thistle; I have no dat you did the beat you could for the in terest of tb<ouse. Trade is a little dull.” Tkei ■ riton »• Tnrroa Falls. The Cholera.—We were shown on yesterday a pri' vate letter from a lady principal of a college near Memphis, which states that it is the opinion of the leading phyeiciane of that city, that the Asiatic cholera originated this year in Memphis and that it will radi ate throughout, and it ravages be confined to the Val- On Fridamorning at eight o’clock, a passenger train left tfcar shed loaded with Atlaotese on a pleas* are tour toe celebrated Tuccoa Falls, on the Airline Railroad, J above Gainesvilla and near the South Carolina li.

Early on the morning of the 4th instant, the Cadeta and their friends were at the passenger depot ready to proceed to the Mountain to enjoy the day. The train was well filled, and after reaching their destination the main object of their mission—prize shooting at target—was commenced. Cadet Warlick won the first prze, a splendid gun. for making the beat shot, the distance being one hundred and twenty yards. I ieutenant McWhorter won the badge for the best shot among the officers. Cadet Dykemau won the tin cup for the worse shot—great merriment. Hon. Daniel Pittman won a silver cup for best shot from the honorary members. The shooting took place in the beautiful grounds attached to the King House. The first prize was delivered by Charlie Col lier in a neat and happy speech. The badge was delivered by Captain W D Luckie in a handsome speech. Colonel Bangh delivered the Silver Cup to Judge Pittman in a very chaste and appropriate ad dress, to which the Judge responded in his usual fe licitous style. The dancing, which was indulged in to a reasonable extent, was very enjoyable. Mr. White, of the King House, did all he could to make the party comfortable. The excursionists returned to the city about eleven o’clock F. M. Though the attendance was very good, we appre hend that on any other day than the fourth of July it would have been much larger. All in all it was a very pleasant affair, such as we are willing to see recur frequently. Police Coart. RECORDER D. F. HAMMOND.

Its proprietors enploy none but the best teachers, pay liberally for Deir services, showing that they believe in tbs maxim that to get money out of any enterprise, yon fmust first pnt money into it, and it is veri- ied by tie fact that the College is in a more prosper ous eondtion than at any time since its foundation.

Cholera—Llut* Dangeron*. To thh Editors of thb Herald: Are our physicians quite sure that it is healthy to fill the town with lime? It may be said that the city of Atlanta la now Maturated with lime. The phy sicians call it a disinfectant. What is the d ffereoce between this lime and the limestone soil in its essential qualities? Now. if they are the same, does it not seem that the same reason that make the cholera visit limestone regions will make it visit a city that abounds with lime? I know this much about limestone regions—they are the hottest of all. I do not know whether the in creased beat has anything to do with the cholera or not. It is a fact, though, in Atlanta, that coincident with the saturation of the town with lime we have now a heated term that is quite unusual. At least, so it seems to me. If there la anything iu this worthy of attention, I ; would like to hear from the “knowing ones” on the J subject. iNqUlKER. A Terrible Storm.—Shortly after five o’clock yes terday evening,Atlanta was visited with a terrific storm, which at first sent the sand whirling in tho eyes, mouths, ears and noses of every poor pedestrian who chanced to be upon the streets, but soon sent r down in copious showers. We noticed part of a store front blown away Chapel street, and parts of shade trees lying around loose. We heard that a negro shanty on Sumer Hill, or some’other hill,was blown sway, and don’t know how much more damage wae done. Hope it blew the cholera off the Continent.
