A Prisoner Hurt in a Wrestle.—On yesterday Mr.
Wellborn Hunt, who is confined in jail on the charge
of violating the internal revenue law, was wrestling
or playing with another prisoner, when he received
an accidental injury. The humerus was dislocated at
the shoulder joint, but did not result in any perma
nsnt injury. Dr. Pinckney reduced the dislocation
within half an hour after the accident occurred, and-
the man is now getting aloDg very well.
Trade Increasing.—It was the general remark of a
large number of dealers with whom we conversed on
the subject yesterday, that trade is steadily increasing.
The reaction is located at a week or ten days ago. This
it doubtless occasioned by the fact that the farmer is
through work in Lis crop and avails himself of the
opportunity of coming to the city to purchase his
nectary supplies of dry goods, grocer is, etc. The
merchants are gratified at the change and wear a cheer
ful countenance.

A Jolly Time.—The meeting of the stockholders ia
the Atlanta k West Point Railroad takes place next
Friday, the 25th. As nsnal, on these occasions, a
special train will start from West Point early in the
morning of that day for the accommodation of the
families of the stockholders, who may wish to -visit
Atlanta. From a private letter just received from
LaGrange, we learn that quite a crowd will come up
from that little city, and one in particular, whose pres
ence just at this time would be a source of incalcula
ble pleasure to another we wot of. However, the
People of Atlanta are al ways glad to have their friends
from the country visit them, and will do what they
can to make their excursion a pleasant affair.
United Stitics Commissioner’* Court.
Ctmmiasioner W. B. Smith yi sterdsy investigated

ernment; J. A. Tulhsou for the defendant.
The case against 3- A. Pinion, for working in a dis

Hill k Codey for tbe defense.
Commissioner Conley investigated a case against
Mesars. Henry and Marion Evans, charged with retail
ing without Jicens•• The witnesses against them
failed to appear, and they were discharged.
8ad Bereavejcknt.—We regret to chronicle the fact
that Mrs. Botnar. wife of Lieutenant F. J. Bomar,
died on Monday night last. She was an amiable lady,
universally esteemed for the noble traits of character
which she possessed. and though her suffering was
long and painful, sh* bore it with Christ.an fortitude
and met her fate with calm resignation. During the
whole of her protracted illness her kind and devoted
husband was ever at her bedside, ministering to her
wanta and endeavoring to alleviate her suffering.
“Death lovea a shining mark,” snatched her and left
Lieutenant Bomar alone and disconsolate—there were
no children from the nnion. The remains of the de
ceased were yesterday convened to Villa Rica for inter
ment. To the bereaved husband and relatives we
tender heartfelt sympathy and condolence in this their
•ad affliction.
Practical Benevolence.
THE WIDOW
CITY POLICE COURT.
“And alow and dower still, day after day,
Come the tad houra with beauteous upturned eyes,
Gleaming with hopes they may not realize,
And seeming in their earnestness to say
Entreating: “Ob, send us not away
All empty-handed as we came; arise
Gi™ »t least, some promise we shall prize,
To be fulfilled, though after long delay.”
And slow and Blower still, day after day, does the
Honorable Recorder make his appearance, and the
hours are sad aa we wait for him. The prisoners in
the ”pigeon holes” are anxious to eome to judgment,
and Jonson has worked himself into s red hot fever
sad sends for the erer-ready Mayor, who comes suf
fused with smiles and blushes to dispense justice
with a firm and untrembling hand. Hardly had the
first case been called, when in steps the Recorder*
just from West End, where he had been fishing all
morning. His appearance indicated the usual “fisher
man’s luck,” and aa he took the thronG he wiped the
perspiration from hia classic brow, and commenced
where Hammock left off.
This waa a case against Ada Montgomery, a ysllow
complected institution, who had nsed very abusive
language towards Miss Ella MitcheU, another Institu
tion of Ada’s way of wearing her bustle. A* It
amounted to nothing she was fined only one dollar
and costs.
John Hildebrand came In from the country with a
load of wood, and after disposing of it he concluded
to look around awhile at the “prettiea,” and hitched
hit team to a shade tree. A policeman brought him
down, and John plead ignorance of the law, and the
officer rather took his tide, and between the two he
got off with costs and a fine lecture.
“ I asked a scholar-looking chap
What nectar was? Quick aa a snap.
He said: “ The true Olympian Up
Waa lager beer.”
Upon this hint Thoa. Cully threw himself with all
the enthusiasm ot an impulsive nature ouUida of a
half a keg, and in less than a quarter of an hour was
as drunk as a “biled owl,” to use his own
expressive vernacular. Th&nka to the super
human exertions of the police, he was
prized out of the gutter, and conveyed to
tbe station house w.th all the bonois. Having been
permitted to lie in state all night, he was visited by
Lis chums, and tbe mosquito choir chanted a
Tequium over hi* inanimate corpus. He awoke re
freshed in the morning, and bathed his head with the
dampest corner of his coat tail, and called upon the
Recorder. That good humored official, with a spirit
of hospitality worthy ot a better cause than Thomas’s
cause, permitted him to occupy lodgings on the first
floor of the corporation restaurant free of rent, for a
few days.
“ He asked the doctor what he thought
The finest drink a brewer wrought ?
He answered thus : * Beyond a doubt,
A coda cocktail.’ ”
i needless to remark that “ John’s ” doctor is
not that retired physician whose “ sands of life have
nearly run out, - ' nor any member of the profession
who has discovered a “ new epoch in medicine.”
•‘John” excused himself upon the ground that he
only took a litile medicine upon the recommendation
of his family physicisn.
He, himself, is an amateur physician, who mixes his
own liquids, and unlike the rest of the profession, is
not afraid to take his own medicine, as the blossom on
his nose abundantly testified. The Court thought
John needed hospital treatment and gentle exercise,
and so consigned him to the work-house dispensary,
which infliction be escaped by submitting to a post
mortem examination of his pocket book. He was pro*
nounccd a chronic case of ten dollars and costs, and
turned loose on tight society.
Perambulating bis drowsy beat, his measured tread
in time with the “dry chicata’s note,” tho faithful
custodian of the night stamped the toe of his prunella
against the unyielding body of No. 1,287 on the
docket, which proved to be that of Thomas Love.
Whether this was the original “true love” or not, the
officer did not stop to surmise, but it was evidont that
his “course” hadn’t “run smooth” on this occasion, if
it ever did. The city's guard didn’t know exactly
whether Love was dead with tho choelra or straggling
with the morbus, or whether under the potent spell of
old tanglefoot it was a case of “Love’s First Dream.’
He tried to wake him, in vain—
“ Can boozy * high’ or animated ‘ bast’
Back to its pureness call bis foetid breath ?
Can hydropathy cleanse Lis throat of rust,
Or stay the cold, impatient hand of death?”
“Scarcely.” He was dumped into a wheelbarrow and
carried up in style to the Recorder, where he found
himself in a hollow square, in an attitude of “ Love at
first sight.” The Court constituted him chief of the
croquet gang, and authorized him to make love to the
geological specimens of the Owens prospecting party.
Nos. 1,288 and 1,282 plead guilty to being drunk and
disorderly, and they were each fined ten and costs.
Benjamin Carter, own uncle to the gentleman who
raised so much oats, was peddliag pictures aronnd
town without license. Ben. evaded the point as long
as possible, but at last the gentle wooing of the court
made him own up, and pays costs.
“If there is any body under the canister of heaven
that 1 hate in utter excresence,” says Mrs. Parting
ton, “it is the slander going about, like a boy con*
structor, circulating bis calomel amoDg honest folks."
Old Ten and Costs is precisely of the same opiuion as
Mrs. Particgton, only he hates a cursing man
worse than a slanderer. When Fanny Lowe was
called and charged with slandering Sis An
derson, the court pricked up its ears and called for
the testimony, which was that Fanny bad called Sis a
li-rr (and several other endeariug epithets.) Under
the circumstances, all things taken into consideration,
she was let off with costs, as being an object of f»ym-
patb y just at that time.
Jim Johnson and Bill Wcslc-y were gay and festive
sports, who nightly roam in quest of the “tiger.”
Having formed a party with two other characters, a
Land of seven up was engaged in, which resulted in a
row between the “parda” because Bill let the other
side catch bis “Jack.”
The police made a haul of these two worthies snd
brought them forth to judgment. An investigation
into the concern proved it to be a bad place. One of
tbe “ sucked in community” testified as to the fero’
city of the animal. It appeared that he—
“ Went to fight the furious tiger.
Went to fight the beast at faro.
And was cleaned out so completely.
That he lost his every ‘ mopns
Every single spec of ‘ pewter,’
Every solitary ‘shiner.’
Every • brad ' and every dollar.
All the * dough ’ iu his possession.
All the ‘ spons ’ his labor earned him.
All the bright and lovely 4 ready,’
All the ‘rowdy,’ all the ‘stumpy,’
A11 the cash and all the ‘ rbino,’
All the * tin ’ he did inherit.”
This was sufficient to get away with William and
James each for ten and costs.
“ Up with the breeze, the birds and the bees,
I heard a boy sing in the morn;
And his hoe kept time with the merry rhyme.
As he cheerfully hoed his corn.”
This waa a small boy minding his own affairs, when
another and much larger chap, named Dixon, came
along and broke up that soDg by wantonly whaling the
singer over the head with a kite frame. Instead of
hia mother thrashing him, as she ought to have done,
and saved him from the clutches of the law, she got
as mad as blazes for being told of it, and tbe father of
the injured boy brought Dixon up, where he pays $5
and coats or goes eight days on the street.
W. B. Cummings came upcf ai i without provocation
or previous notification. Hia «*o tenia’ thro’ the rye”
so often will Lave a 'eaiern y to weaken him in the
loins. When arrested be beci me very jack-asperated,
but soon cooled down and paid dOW i ten and costa.
“His brow was sad, his bead WM bare.
One hand in frenzy clntch< d h s hair;
And as be went with rapid st ide
Iu mournful accents still ht cr ad,
lusted! ”

Our reader* will remember the tragic death
of 1 ich .rd Wall a few months ago, while
reton ia; from the Hibernian Society's pic
nic. Although a hard workng man, poor Dick,
with characteristic Celtic liberality, always
spent his money freely, and tbe consequence was that
at hia death his wife and children were left in very
straightened circumstances. On ascertaining this fact,
John Stephens, of lbe firm of Stephens k Flynn*
with hia accustomed benevolence, went to work
to provide for tbe widow and orphans, and,
aided by a few good Samaritans, soon
raised a handsome sum of money, which has been in
vested in a cottage and lot of land in the city, lu which
the family now reside. In addition, there is a neat
balance remaining, whicb, with such other sums as
may be collected, will be invested for tbe benefit of
Mrs. Wall and her children. Mr. Stephens deserves
credit, for the very prompt and practical manner in
which he has demonstrated hia sympathy for the wid
ow and orphans.
Justices* Courts.
J. C. Bridges was arraigned before Justice Mundsy
yesterday on a charge of assault and battery, but as
the same case had been investigated by Justice Ham
mond, the warrant was dismissed without anf investi
gation. Thomas Finley for tbe £tate, Thrasher and
McAfee for Bridges.
Thomas Turner, colored, charged with burglary,
waa brought before Jualice Monday, but tbera being
no evidence against him ha waa discharged. Jesse 8.

THE JUNIORS—THE CHAMPION DEBATE—POINTS.
At 4 o’clock the members of the Kappa Alpha Club
invited their friends lo a pleasant. convivium. These
social reunions of the atudenU are always delightful.
JOINT DEBATE BETWEEN THE PHI GAMMA AND FEW
SOCIETIES.
This is a new feature of College Commencements.
A graceful Salutatory was pronounced by Mr. J. O. A,
Wynn, of Americas. It was good, but entirely too
long. The question was then read by
bishop pierce:
Should the Government adopt a system of com
pulsory Education ?”
Affirmative—E.M. Whitington, Few; J. W. Freder
ick, Few; F. H. Richsrdson, Few.
Negative—C. E. Dowinin, Phi Gamma; W A. Sheate,
Phi Gamma; O. L. Smith, Phi Gamma.
Some of those gentlemen spoke to a length quite
beyond propriety. A commencement audience will
not tolerate a long, dry speech. The Faculty ought to
regulate this matter. We did purpose giving a short
synopsis of each debater’s argument, but fear your
readers would cry “ Forbear! ” Mr. Dowmau of your
city, has rare power. He graduates with the first
honor. We speak of him again. Mr. Richardson
also from Atlanta, had a very finished oration. It was
scholarly conceived and admirably delivered. Mr.
8mith’s speech was the shortest, and, therefore, the
most popular. The two best arguments made in the
debate were allowed to Mr. Frederick and Mr. Sheats.
Each acquitted himself with great credit. Bishop
Pierce presided, and decided in favor of the negative.
Your correspondent mistook another good looking
man for General Colquitt. The General has not been
rer. He was elected to preside at this delate.
Tuesday Morning, July 22, 1873.
Prayer by the Rev. J. P. Duncan, opened the Junior
Exercises. The chapel crowded, and as usual, taika-
tive.
N. T. Banks, Henderson, Texas. “Proper function
of Education.” Good mind—digested his thoughts
well.
E. M. Hammond, Atlanta, Ga. “Practical Thought ”—
An able philippic against educational systems that pre
pare men to make money offy. Life has higher mis
sions. It wae all capitally said. E l is original from
tbe ground up.
E. R. Kinnebiew, Lexington,Ga.—“Achievem ents of
Man.” Good leview of what man has done. Said
woman’s eye waa the gate of Iliaven. The poet says
“some point the other way.”
J. M. Myers, Macon, Ga.—“Salmagundi.” Son of
Dr. Myers, of Macon. A fine bit. I mean the speech,
and the boy too. A splendit “take off” on the sub
jects usually chosen by college boys. lie came to
the conclusion that woman needed no eulogy. She
talks for herself. More speeches like this. People
don’t come here to listen to sermons. This twang of
sermonizing is getting monotonous.
ADDRESS AND DELIVERY OF SOPHOMORE PRIZES BY HOW
ARD VAN EPP8, Esq., ATLANTA, GA.
Now for something good. This crowd expects it.
They were not disappointed. Mr. Van Epps never
spoke with happier effect. Discarding tho hackneyed
theme of “eloquence,” worn out on such occa
sions, he delivered himself eloquently on the
subject of “ emulation.” The crowd listened
with an attention hitherto nnuoticed in these
exercises. Atlanta may well bo proud of
this young man as one of her sous. The University
of Georgia looks on him admiringly as the most gifted
of her young Alumni. Let him but emulate the ex
ample of her other sous who have not been spoiled by
flattery, and we feel sale in saying he will not stop
this side of the heights. The aged Chancellor of the
University would have been gratified could he have
seen in the oration of to-day some of tho fruits of
that high culture in oratory which he labors so faith
fully to impart.
THE PRIZES.
Mr. Candler, of Villa Rica,'received the first prize;
Mr. Wright, of Oxford, received the-secoud.

A VISIT TO THE CEMETERY.
IMPROVEMENTS IN PROGRESS—112 INTERMENTS LA At
MONTH—THE HEAVIEST MORTALITY ATLANTA
HAS EVER EXPERIENCED—WORK ON THE
CONFKDERANE MONUMENT ABOUT
On yesterday afternoon we visited the city cemetery.
After exchanging courtesies with the city sexton, the
inimitable John C rnnally, by whom wo were kindly
received, we proceeded to propound inquiries and
gained tbe following information: That in the month
of June he had made 112 interments—the largest num
ber mado in any one month since he had assumed the
snperintendency of the cemetery, which dates about
three years back. The next largest number interred
any other one month waa 109 in August of 1870. That
iverage of mortality was about two-thirds colored
le-third white. Prominent among the improve
ments iu contemplation is a family monument
which is about to be erected on Governor
Jos. E. Brown’s square, which will stand 28 feet
above the base, the cost of which is estimated from
$5,000 to $6,000. Muldoon k Co., of Louisville, Ky.,
the contractors. The majority of finer work was
executed in Italy and exported by them. When com
pleted this will be, by all odds, the handsomest monu
ment in the graveyard. Standing at an elevated posi
tion, It will mutely mock at a 1 tho efforts of other
tombs to rival it in porfection.
Mr. J. M. Willis has awarded the contract to Mr. D.
U. Judson, of this city, of erecting a very handsome
and costly tomb over the remains of his wife, which
will be one of the most chaste and elegant monuments
that ornaments the grounds. Mr. Wade Hill is pre
paring the ground for the speody efoction of a very
handsome family vault on his lot.
The Confederate monument is at a stand
still—nothing has been done towards its com
pletion for the past two years. We understand, how-
that a contract has been consummated with the
Stone Mountain Company to furnish granite to com
plete the shaft or body of the monument, and that the
Memorial Association will commence work afresh at a
very early date. Though our information was not au
thentic, we sincerely hope that we were informed
aright.
•Judge Linton Stephens.
At the instance of Hon. Ale xander II. Stephens,
Colonel James D. Waddell, of Marietta, is preparing a
memorial volume of the lamented Judge Lintoa
Stephens. This commission could not have been en
trusted to abler hands. Colonel Waddell is a gentle-
of fine education, large experience and a close
observer, and there is no doubt that the memoir
which he is preparing of one of Georgia’s greatest
statesmen and patriots that ever lived will be all that
the friends and admirers of the lamented Stephens
can ask.
Friends who may have preserved any of hi* letter,
which would tid Col. Waddell in liis labors, will great
ly oblige him by the loan cf them. If aent by ex
press to Marietta, they will be carefully kept and re
turned in tbe course of a few months. Address Col.
James D. Waddell, Marietta, Georgia.
Augusta and Macon papers are referred to the adver
tisement elsewhere.
PROCEEDINGS OF COUNCIL.
Tbe Council met at 8 o’clock last night at the Re
corder’s Court Room. Present—His Honor, Mayor
Hammond, and a full Board of Aldermen, except Al
dermen McLendon and Beattie.
The report of the Joint Committee to whom was
referred the bids for building Broad street bridge
was read.
The Commitleo on Public Buildings and Grounds
and the City Engineer recommend tha acceptance of
the bid of the Canton Bridge Company of Canton,
Ohio, at $14,000 In city bonds at 82 cents.
Messrs. L. P. Grant, John H. Flynn and M. V. D.
Corput favored the acceptance of the bid of Wilkins k
Post, of Paterson, N. J., at $14,000—half in city bonds
and half in money. These bridges are both all Iron
and both good bridges. The Wilkins k Post Company
agreed to take all city bonds at 85 1-2 cents.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Qjght, the agent of the Can
ton Bridge Company, agreed to take all bonds at 95
cents, but for a bridge having only a capacity to sus
tain 1.800 pounds per lineal foot instead of 36,000
pounds per lineal foot, his original bid.
Alderman Dodd moved that the Council accept the
bid of Mr. Hight at $14,000 in bonds at 95 cents.
Alderman Morris seconded the motion.
Alderman Young favored a seventy foot bridge. Al
derman Morris did the same.
The previous question was called and the motion-
was carried by a unanimous vote.
The contract, as awarded to the Canton Bridge Com
pany, of Canton, Ohio, is for a seventy foot wrought
iron bridge, at $14,000,to bo paid in twenty years eight
per cent, city bonds at 93 cents.
The City Attorney, with the Committee on Public
Builidngs and Grounds, was directed to prepare the
necessary papers.
The floor of the bridge will be thj only wood abont
it. There will be two 25-foet roadways for horses,
carriages, wagons, etc., and two 10-feet walks for foot
passengers. Tho bridge will be completed by Novem
ber 15th, 1873.

Snaxx.”—A youthful descendant of Ham who
drivei a cart on Whitehall street, sprinkling water on
his route for the protection of citizens against dost,
was yesterday evening astounded, confounded and
bewildered on lifting the lid of his reservoir to fiod

Gkntlemex—The sample of Atlanta “City Brewer
ry” Lager Beer, received from you, proves, upon a^
thorough chemical examination, to be quite free from
all injurious substance*, ss drugs, etc. Pnre Hop
Resin is the only bitter principle found in the article,
and the analyais below, allowing per cenUge of the

ANALYSIS.
Extractive matter (dextrine, sugat. hop rosin,
albumen, etc) per cent 6.0*90
Alcohol, per centage by volume 6 4010
Water 88.0101
Specific gravity of the Beer, 1.0158.
The following is the analysis of our Beet and o£ the

Atlanta “City Brewery”.. .G.C893 G.4r<10 88.0101 1 0158
Cincinnati Beer 6.6283 6.6025 88.0717 1.0157
The above analysis, made from a cample taken from
the same tanks from which we dsily fill casks for city
consumption and for shipment, conclusively estab
lishes the great superiority of our Lager Beers over
that mads in Cincinnati, in that it contains a so much
larger per centage of nutritious elements—dextrine,
(starch) sugar, albumen, ani pure bop resin. As no
sugar is used in the manufacture, the saccharine mat
ter contained in our Lager Beer is only that derived
from tbe vegetable ingredients employed.
We therefore confidently place our CITY BREW};.
RY LAGER BEER in open and square competition
with any other manufacture, assured that as a Lever
age containing a considerably larger per centage of nu
tritive and tonic proper ties, in proportion to weight or
volume, than any other offered iu the 3 uth, it com
mends itself to all consumers as tbe most hiulthful.
