thoroughly through Whitfield, Catoosa, Cbatcoga,

season than at the present time. In some sections of
the territory a little more rain would have been desi

potatoes and all vegetables were over average. The
farmers are in good spirits, and believe that tbe good

" How do you like Atlanta 7 ” “ Will they let North
ern men go and live among them?” A gentleman
from Ohio, residing in this city for the past eight
mouths, frequently receives letters from friends in
that State, in tbe first of which, from each party, the
two interrogatories which head this item, in nine cases
out of ten. are generally put. Why it la so we cannot
tell ; bat such is the fact We were yesterday favored
w th a perusal of one of these mitsive* and oar Ohio
friend's reply thereto, from which »e are permitted
to make tbe following extracts : " It seems
strange that a maa of your intelligence acd
goxl Sr use should ask each questions; but, notwith
standing. I will answer candidly aad give you my opin
ion of the people of Georgia, and Atlanta In particu
lar, as far as I have had an opportunity of judging
during my short sojourn here. I can tell yoa, -my
dear friend, that a more friendly and hospitable peo
ple than those of Georgia I have never met in my life;
and. as for the citizens of Atlanta, they are enterpris
ing, courteous, social and attentive In their several
business vocations. That any bitterness or ill feeling
exists toward Northern men, or these who may differ
with the msjo tty here on the subject of politics, is
all bosh—there ie nothing of it.
A Lend Complaint.
We publish below a complaint signed by "Many
Citizens.” in wbteh they Justly complain of a great
nnieaoce In relation to our public pumpo. "Many
Citizens” are doubtless right in their hill of indict
ment, and we reepoctfully call the attention of the
Committee of Council on "Wells, Pumps and Cisterns,
to this matter.
Atlanta, Ga., July 23,1873.
Editor* or the Herald:
Will jou do the citizens of Atlanta a very great
kindoess by calling the attention of the proper au
thorities to the pumps on the public streets. To
many of us It is an astonishing fact, that after having
had the iron pumps that are now ia tho public wells
for years, and having had to repair them every two
three days to keep them in a condition that will make
it possible for any one to get water, the proper
thorities do not abandon them and procure others
that will not be "everlastingly and forever” out of
order. Positively, these are a public nuisance which
should be abated forthwith. It la almost enough to
make a saint curse to go so often to one of oar pumps
and fail so often to get water, and often when yon do
ga it you have to work tbe life out of you almost to
do It.
We are not pecuniarily interested in tLe sale of
pumps, nor do wa know who ie, but we would not
give one of the cucumber pomps that we have
In many wells outside of Atlanta for all the ire*
pumps 1* this city. We know some of these wooden
pumps that ha** not been the least out of order for
year, aad bars boon used every few minutes every day
during that time.
Meet Crrxzins.
The annual meeting of the Board of Directors and
Stockholders of the Georgia Western Railroad Com
pany was held yesterday at eleven o'clock in the room
of the Chamber of Commerce.
President L. P. Grant called the meeting to order.
The minutes of the last annual meeting were read
and confirmed-
The following report of the Board of Directors was
read and adopted:
Office Georgia Western B. R.
Atlanta, July 24,1873.
To THE SlOCKHOLDERS:
The Directors submit the folios ing report of the
condition of the Company:
SUBSCRIPTIONS TO CAPITAL STOCK.
City of Atlanta $300,000 00
Georgia Railroad company 25<
Individual subscriptions r
Earned by Contractors li
$583,426 45
RECEIVED ON SUBSCRIPTIONS.
From city of Atlanta $206,485 93
From Georgia Railroad Company 4,464 6'
From individuals 8,700 00
From contracts in work If,852 14
$235,877 05
The expenditures up to July 1, have keen:
For real estate $12,207 75
For right of way
Office furniture, engineer’s instruments,
tents, teams and other property $ 2,743 58
Grading and masonry 164,887 87
Engineering prior to reorganization 13,304 67
Engineering since r< organization 24,053 64
General expenses 9,834 8’
Interest and exchange 297 45
Total $227,489 03
This leaves a balance in hand of $8,388 02, which
is represented by bonds of tbe City of Atlanta and
payments on account not closed by regular vouchers.
The Directors have delayed the letting of bridge
superstruction and cross-ties for a more definite un
derstanding of tbe intention of our citizens as to
further subscription by the city. It would be unwise
to spend money for perishable structures and mate
rial unless there is a reasonable assurance that they
will be brought into early use.
The grading and masonry lacks about 15 per
cent, of completion ou tbe nrst twenty miles. The
surveys beyond a definite location have probably
equaled one thousand miles of length. Our route
crosses the general drainage of a country of complex
topography until we reach the Chocolocco valley. Ev
ery route suggested within reasonable limits of dis
tance demands an instrumental survey unless the to
pography should be so decidedly marked aa to repel the
Engineer in his explorations. Ou reaching the Choc
olocco the route is more plainly defined. The ques
tion of d< flections then becomes one cf policy, not of
Topography.
The surveys for comparison of direct roate, and
that via Talladega, will soon be completed, when the
Board will lay tbe subject before tbe Stockholders, if
tbe proposed deflection to Talladega should be deemed
admissible by the Board.
For general information, embracing the resources
of our road, if c'nstrncted, we refer the Stockholders
ot the letter of tbs President recently published in
the city papers.
The Directors felt authorized by the city subscrip
tions and tbe general expreaeion of our citizens to
place the work under contract, to the extent of twenty
miles. If tbe city will increase the subscription as
then expected, or to a less extent sufficient to purchase
twenty miles of iron, we feel confident that the Geor
gia Railroad Company will furnish a sufficient sum for
the completion of ten additional miles, making thirty
miles of compl eted road that will be self sustaining,
and of considerable benefit to the city. This will
also give a basis of credit on which to extsrd the road.
Respectfully submitted by the Directors.
L. P. Grant, President
On motion of Hon. John Collier, the President ap
pointed Hon. John Collier, John H. James, and A.
Leyden, tellers to receive and count votes for Presi-
dent and ten Directors.

F. P. Rice, J. H. James, Campbell Wallace. J. A. Hay
den, A. W. Mitchell, W. B. Cox. E. Y. Clarke, and G*

Habra* Corpus
. ThU
oS
Hon. Daniel Pittman, Ordinary, yesterday,beard the
habeas corpus case of W. A. Ward vs. the Sheriff.
Ward was committed to Fulton county jail on the 13th
of June last, under a mittimus directed to the jailor
of Walton county, who was thereby directed to receive
and safely keep him to answer the charge of passing
counterfeit money in Walton county. The Sheriff
made answer In accordance with the above facta. This
answer admitted tbe facts stated io Ward’s pet.lion,
leaving the only question in d.spate tbe legal ones as to
whether such detention was illegal, and if so what
should be done with Ward. Col. Marshall J. Clarke,
lor the defense, said that Ward had been put in
Fultou county jail through some mistake; admitted
that his detention in this county was illegal, bvn
thought he ought to be Leld long enough for an off1
cer from Walton county to come after hiss. Osier e]
Thomas Finley for the petitioner said the detention
being illegal, the prisoner ought to be fflschaffged.
Nobody but the arresting officer had tbe right to car
ry the prisoner to Walton county, and he had already
sur rend-red bis custody of the accused to the Sheriff.
Therefore, as the Sheriffs holding of Ward wae ille
gal, be was entitled to his liberty. Tbe only question
was. Is bis detention in Fulton county illegal 7 It
he ought to be discharged.
Julge Pittman, after tho conclusion of th#
ments, ordered tbe prisoner to be discharged,
was done, and he was immediately r< -arrested
the original warrant. He will be held a
time for arrangements to be made for his transfer to
Walton county.

Wrst Point Boys.—During our brief visit
Point yesterday we missed the familiar faces of a
number of the j«Dy fcllsws whom we dvayfiee titofc.
They had all gaae abofft two miles ia Che smsntrf add
engaged in a social old-fashioned "■
Oar heart and appetite were with them, and but for
the want of time had to decline half ff
a free rids there with those who swatted the arrival of
our train. The whole staff editorial air under oblige
lions for courtesies in this particular.
Wednesday night being a "heavy work night,” it
chanced that the threo proprietors of the Herald
were detained at the office until deep iu the wee sms
hours, and were deep in editorial work when Ector,
the mailing superintendent of the office, burst in the
door shouting:
"Herald special train all right, sod ready for the
mail. Fixed *j? in style. Oan accommodate six passen
gers. Folks been clever to us. Thompson has sent up
a huge basket of broiled chicken, tenderloin steaks,
and rolls. Nuttings deposited a basket of champagne,
Maddox a box of cigars, and we are fixed "stunning”
for the trial trip. Who’ll go ?
In a jiffy It struck the editors that instead of going
I to their rooms to snatch a few hours of sleep before
the d»y came, they would take passage on the light
ning express and spend an hour or so in catching a
whiff of country mornijg air, watching a sunrise, and
discusaing Thompson’s delicacies over a bottle of
jKrng. It was too tempting a picture. In five min
utes Messrs. Abrams, Alston, Grady, Moore and W. 8*
Grady were in the car shed clambering into the
gine, and selecting soft spots on which to lay back
and watch things.
Rt fleeted iff the glare of the reflector, we Saw the
sharp, keen, reliant face of Jim Toy a» engiueer, and
than we knew that " all was right” Just as ws started
off, a dusty, travel-worn foim came bursting through
tbe darknese, and disclosing the handsome features of
peerless representative, Tom Burney, who, just
returned from a long trip In the Herald’s interest,
reported at the ofloe, and, hearing that an extra trip
was projected, hurried to catch the train and share
the fortunes of the Hkrald staff. It need not be said
that his presence- gladdened every heart, and his
est, wimorne manner heightened the joy of tbe
eion.
“ beady!” sang hie engineer.
Then a tremor flashed through Toy’s arm, flickered
about hie wri»t a moment, then died upon the throt a
tie, and the great engine, obedient to his touch, an.
swerod with a little thrill of uneasiness, then settled
to her work, and. flattening her broad nose like a
sleuth-hound to tho track, flew like a bird out into the
darkness.
You may talk about eestacj, but if there's anything
to best bowling on a well-set engine over a smooth
road, at tbe rate of forty miles an hour, in the dewy
dawn of the day, nestling in the niches of a wood pile,
surrounded by jelly friends, and washing down
Thompson's steaks with delicate Kmg, in the face of
the sunrise, we would like to know what it is. At any
rate, we enjoyed it to tbe very acme. The /tingling
air, fresh from afield, strung up our nerves just to
that pitch to whet ns to the full enjoyment of the oc
casion; and as ae lit our Havana's and laid back to
watch the blushing sky as she reddened under tho
passionate advances of the hot heated day, we almost
wished that the stern little man at the throttle might
[jerk her wide open once and then hold her there
|forever, carrying us the devil care where, just so this
revelry of fun lasted.
OUR ovation on the road.
The trip of our traiu along the road was a perfect
ovation. By telegrams the people had become aware
[of the coming of the special train, and crowds
met us at every crossing to tender congratu
lations and well wishes. At Grantville we had a
superb breakfast, serve! by Mr. Branham, which he
did in compliment "to the Herald’s enterprise.”
May Branham be ever bleased.
The Herald staff distributed through tbe irrepres
sible Burney a bottle of champagne to the Mayor of
every station along the route aud to every newspaper
man. In return, our party received telegrams from
two of the cities inviting ns to siop far two or three
hours and SDjoy the hospitalities of the people; but
in both cases were obliged to decline the invititions,
aa we were running on a close schedule.
TREATED LIKE PRINCES.
At West Point we were treated like princes. On ar.
riving we found carriages in waiting to take us to a
barbaeuo In progress just outside of the city. Another
party of gentlemen, Messrs. Lanier, Higginbotham,
Shepherd sad Finney, waiting to carry ns to an ele
gantly furnished room, where the finest of peaches,
grapes, cigars, etc., were piled io profusion. We
•pent an hour or so very charmingly in their com
pany, and were then seized by Messrs. Williams and
Higginbotham, proprietors of the Chattahoochee
House, and carried lulu a diuiug room, where a mag
nificent dinner was sprezd. Alter dinner we started
on our return. We were unable to make any one take
a single cent from us; everything was "in compli
ments to the special train,” "don’t charge the Herald
anything,” etc., etc. We are all t^lng to West Point
| to live.
OH THE WAY BACK
Lund crowds of people ai every stat on cheering
as wo passed, and smothering us with flowers,
bouquets, etc. The staff received from Miss Hat-
Hanvy tha finest bouquet we have seen this sea
son. Dr. Audy, of Grantvilie, presented us a box ol
new sweet potatoes—“The first potatoes of the season
to the first paper of tbe State.” Subscribers poured
in rapidly, and everybody caught the enthusiasm of
the occasion. Tho Hebald has captured the West
[Point Radroad.
WHAT THE FEOFLS SAY.
We give twtfor three letters from a score of similar
.es received along the route, all of which shall be
cherished as mementoes of the opening of the hand
somest era of tho HeeaLD's existence
Palmetto, Ga., July 24, 1873.
| To the Editors of the Herald :
Early this morning our citizens were startled by the
unexpected shrill whistle of the Atlanta Herald’s
Special Mail Train, en route for West Point, leaving us
the latest intelligence, also a bottle of cham
pagne, just from Reims, for our worthy Msyor
and Chairman of Council, W. W. Floyd, Esq. (
who assembled his faithful councllmen, and all drank
deep and hearty toast to the future prosperity of the
Herald, wishing "that it may march or toward the
goal of Fame with a pace commensurate with the
{speed of its special train.”
After finishing the Herald’s highly appreciated gift*
Councilman Dr. T. F. Longino, our live druggist, set
forth his sparkling wines and told us to drink quantum
suffleit. Again toast after foist otui offered for the

Our citizens were perfectly astonished and delighted
at such a thing in our Southern country, and the mo
tives which prompted it fills our hearts with grati

Enterprise and energy is what our people need, and
yotir paper is waking many from a state cf lethargy.
Then we admire editor* who are not afraid to express
themselves freely »nd tell tho truth. Your paper is
certainly the best in tbe South. Every mau, woman
and child can be bene fitted by it.
Very respectfully.
Miss 8. E. Lawk*.
The great interest and enthusiasm manifested by
the people all along tbe route on tho return was In
deed cheering. The special traiu came in on the same
schedule ot tbs regular passenger, aud arrived at the
tame time, with bauners flying and our bell ringing.
Take it all together, it was a real jolly day—a reapite
from the weary toils and confinement of a daily paper,
and osm which was hugely enjoyed by the party.

ie Editors or the Herald :
mit me, through the columns of your ex
paper, to address to th* Mayor and Council of^ffm
lure o/ th« tax ozdUuuure. oi tha city. ,
I muJe V> ttet put at UM ordinance wbkb requi.e,
mechanics to take out licenses before th*y can open
shops or contract for work.
In all ages of the World the policy of government*
controlled by wtus statesmen, has been 6a teeter, en
courage and endeavor to jffffld up lndaetries— not to
discourage and suppress them by taxation. In well
regulated governments, whether National, State or
Municipal, the policy of tho tax laws has been to re
quire lloense, fees, etc., from those who engage in
pursuits which have a tendency to demoralize society,
such as grog shops, gaining aioons, theatres, houses
of ill fame, etc., not from work shops and from those
who make their livings honestly by the sweat of their
brows.
The class of occupations above alluded to. grog
shops , Ac., ought to be taxed heavily, because they
demoralize the young, breed disorder, riot and confu
sion in the community, and necessitate the mainten.
ance of an expensive po'lce to preserve the public
peace.
Workshops, mechanics and others following kindred
occupations help to build up cities, States and national
to develop the resources of the country, add to its ma'
terial wealth, and tend to promote order; hence, they
should be fostered, not taxed.
I think this feature of the tax ordinances of tho city
illegal, because it contravenes the policy of the State
laws—think, if a test case were made before the State
courts, it would be bold void.
Another feature in this ordinance to which I object,
aside from its unwise snd impolitic choracter, Is that
it is peculiarly burdeucome, on account of the time
fixed when the money must be paid and the
licenses procured, This is ia mid-summer,
when work ie scarce, mud money scaroer—when
few shops are paying expenses, and it is almost
impossible for mechanics to support their
families, much less pay for licenses.
Atlanta is the only city iu the world that taxes shoe
makers, tailors, blacksmiths, carpenters, tinners, and
Other similar trades, I think when the City Fathers
shall have properly considered this feature of their tax
ordinances in the light of its present and future effects
upon society and the city’s interests, they will e:ase it
from the statute book.
Respectfully,
A Worrinovan.

About 12 o’clock on Wednesday night a sister of P.
H. Snook, Esq., who is temporarily stopping at his
house, corner Cain and Collins streets, was awakened
by a rattle at her window. She at once called out to
know who was there, wheu Mr. Shook was awakened and
came to the rescue. Although the night was perfectly
calm, one ol the blinds was half open, and two flower
vases, which were sitting in the window, were
turned. Mr. Snook could fiSMher see nor hear any
sue, bat is satisfied it was a burglar ou* attempt to rob
his house. This occurred on tbd second floor of his
building.

sugar is used in the manufacture, the saccharine mat-

with any other manufacture, assured that as s bever

mends itself to all consumers as the most hrslthfu).
