On »Vf doasdaj w* called on Meinn. EC.* J. F. Ki ser k Co., for Uae purpose of seeing them In reference to advertising in our Sunday paper. While they were engaged in writing the advertisement, we strolled through their store. Believing that an expose of their business would show well for Atlanta’s buaineaa and enterprise, we determined to make a hasty description of their establishment, and speak of the business they are doing. They occupy s corner double store in the Republic Block,which la a five story building. Tbs first i basement floor .where they do their pecking, le literal, oj pind uo|)u*t)tt ivpMdsa ‘S3HSIN , ly jammed with heavy goods of all descriptions, such as blankets, domestics of all kinds, and s full line of shirting, including the FISK BROWN SEA ISLAND, trunks, and divers other articles pertaining to the dry goods business. THS SECOND FLOOR is filled to ovei flowing with a most complete stock of dress goods, both domestic and foreign, and a large assortment of jeans, casslmeres, etc., all grades of ginghams, hnseya, alpacas, bleached goods of all kinds, a full line of bed ticking, etc., red and printed cotton flannel; also all grades of opera flannel. They make a specialty of SHAWLS in this department. They also have a carefully and well assorted stock of felt shirts on this floor. Among this stock they have a shirt which has achieved great popularity at the North, aud la the latest thing out, the entire front of which Is covered with embossed or stamped work, very tastily made, and to be used for morning dresses which open in front. THE THIRD FLOOR. This atorv is devoted to the storage of absolutely ev erything in tbe notion line, boots and shoes of all qualities aud every price, a complete assortment of hats—from ths commonest wool hat for gentlemen to the finest far—trimmed kata for ladies, gloves and ho siery for both sexes; also undsr and overahirts, a well as the finest white shirts. On this story they make a specialty of tbe B. E. LEE COLLAR, with a photograph on top of tba box. They are the only house tu the state which cas got this cellar direct from the factory, hence they can easily defy competi tion in them. In reference to prices, they guarantees to duplicate any New York bill. These gentlemen hsvo built up a colosaal trade with probably greater rapidity than any other firm in tbe city. They are equally deserving of patronage with any business house In tbe State. They commenced business here lu a rather modest way, and with a small capital, about five years ago. Since, by close attention to business, by selling such goods as to give universal satisfaction and gain tbe confidence of all their customers, and by real hard licks themselves, they have succeeded in building up the second dry goods business in Atlanta.

A LTTE ATLANTA INSTITUTION. r the industries of Atlanta, the art of printing stands prominently forth, and among the many es tablishments we might mention, none stand highor in public estimation than that of Messrs. V. P. Sisson k Co. .proprietors ef the Economical Book and Job Print ing House, on Broad street, by the Bridge. This establishment has been in existence since 1867, and has always enjoyed a proud reputation, both for the superior manner in which its printing Is done, and for reliability in carrying out its conti acts. The gentlemen composing the firm are all practical isn, and thoroughly understand the business they are conducting, and this is perhaps the grand secret of their Tbe vast piles of timber tbat during the past two months have come and disappeared, aud tbe hugs mass of debris that baa been aeeu about the Opera House, assured tbe passer-by tbat rumor was cotrect aud tbat Mr. DeGive waa really in earnest aud Atlan ta was to have, tbe coming aeaiou, theatrical accom modations, tbe need of which have so long been felt aud each too &a would offer Inducements to legitimate talent, thns securing to our people metropolitan op. portunities behind tbs footlights heretofore denied them. True, Atlanta has been favored w tb many nUrs of tbe first magnitude, both in tbe dramatic and lyric role, but tbe limited capacity of the old Opera House, which, when filled to overflowing, offered poor com- l^pabaattoi to leading talent compared with that real- With foot splendid power-preasea, and every other is#d at the North aud West, while it neeeaearlly placed facility known to tlia art of printing, we hazard noth ing In aaylng that Y. P. Slasou k Co. ara prepared to Aside from all this the shabby means of exit, should turn out as fine printing as can be done anywhere in the United States. (This we can afford to say, not withstanding the Herald has claims in that line itself.) The business of Messrs. Sisson k Co. has grown from year to year, and their facilities have been increased from time to time, until the establishment now ranks with sny in tbe city in the amount of worn done, at least; and we know of no better rule by which to judge of tbe popularity and merit of a business house than tbe extent of its business. That the public may form some idea of tbe amount of book and job printing being done in Atlanta, we append tbe following statistics tikeu from the tax books of the city. It will be seen tbat the item is not an inconsiderable one, and that this branch of Atlanta's industry is keeping psce with all others: BOOK AND JOB WOUK DONE IN THIRD QUARTER, 1872. V. P.

Sleetb, agent of Hall’s Safe and Lock Company of Cincinnati, Ohio, and find him a gentleman of the highest type and a genial companion, an if a nonpareil business man. As sn evidence of his business ctpac- ve will state that he has, during his stay here, sold over thirty sates made by his company in this city alone, together with several in Griffiu and other towns tributary to Atlanta. As for his companionship, if you will cultivate his acquaintance to find that our assurances are correct, we are satisfied you will never regret it. We are not surprised at the number of his sales when we take Into consideration the superiority of tbe safe he represents over other safes. We only wonder that he conld find so many good men who had not found one ot them necessary before, especially when they are endorsed by and recommended by almost e7sry bank In the city. For some of the ad vantages they enjoy over other safes, vide their adver tisement in this issue. We desire to call special attention to tbe card of Mr. Goodnow, general manager of the Republic Life Insu rance company. He is In earnest, and means busi ness when he pledges the company to create advan tages for home inaurauce in all the growing towns in the State. In fact, the company does more than it promises. A policy in it is a good investment. Mr. E. B. Walker, Master Transportation State Road, accompanied by his wife, leave this morning for a trip to the North and West. Mr. K. A.

President Wallace Is off on a brief visit to Virginia. Without transacting any business of special import ance, the Society then adjourned to the next regular meeting. Col. T. J. Hightower.—This gentleman, so well and favorably known to the people of this section, and who is still engaged in the grocery and produce busi ness, has a card in this issue to which we invite the especial attention of those wishing to purchase. He has now and will keep constantly on hand a complete stock, and his facilities for obtaining goods are such as enable him to sail at the lowest market price. He has for a number of years been identified with the interests of Atlanta aud the trade of the surrounding country, sod turn, by fair dealing, established ▼labia reputation. That he la one of the representa tive men of Atlanta is conceded, aud too much cannot be said commendatory of hfs energy and reliability. All the fun in town at Kimbrough’s Turf Exchange. Morrison, Bain k Co.—The youngest hardware firm In Atlanta, Morrison, Bain A Co., have, In three years, achieved a reputation for reliability ana solid business qualifications, second to no other house in the city. Beginning with a small capital they have, by carefully husbanding their resources snd by skilful management, been able to increase their buslnesa wonderfully well. In Auguet, 1870, they started their handaome house, the firm being composed, ss at pres ent, of Mr. J. Morrison, Mr. D. M. Bain and Mr. A. Morrison. Each year sines their sales have Increased from fifty to seventy-five per cent., and the capital originally Invested has been more than trebled. One important came of their success has been their abso lute reliability. To represent their goods precisely as they are and thns win the confidence of their custom, ere has been the policy to which they have strictly adhered. And to this thay have added a courtesy and attention, and a strict compliance with all their obli gations in keeping with tbeir general course as mer chants. We do not know of auy house in Atlanta that we can more highly or more cordially reoommend, and w ® this not as a meie compliment, but from the most sincere conviction tbat It ie merited. Individually the members of the Arm are most estimable gentlemeu whom to know is to admire. What is thk Remedy.—It appears that despite tLo best regulated effort on the part of the Htreet Rail road Company to avoid unpleasant aud disagreeable proximity between the whites and colored people on the street care, tbat the latter often render the situa tion just the reverse. We lesrn that on yesterday white g'ntlenisu and lady were forced by tbe inso lence and want of proosr respect on tbs part ol some colored passengers, to retire from the car lu disgust. Is there a remedy for this stats of thiugs, aud if to, what la It? panlo occur, was not a thought to tbe nervous mind only as it was always a subject of remorse familiar to the ear of the writer on all occasions. Strangers visiting the theater were unfavorably im* pressed. Every one exclaimed, Atlanta ought to have a better Opera House. Few, perhaps considered tne problem, “Would Atlanta support a better one?” And we are not certain our enterprising citizen, Mr.DeGive, ia assured of that conundrum, albeit be so nobly ventures the experiment. However, we are indebted to him for a new and elegant Temple of the Drama the coming season,with a seating capacity of over 2,000 people, which for completeness and finish, magnifi cence and comfort is not only In keeping with onr city, but has no superior if an equal In the Southern States. A glance within at the interior will even now prove the assertion. Never mind if we ore met at the en trance by a mass of rubbish and relics of its former glory, lay here and there like tbe ruins ot the Theater of Bacchueo in the rocky slope of the Acropolis; wha1 if a forest of timbers with its net work of cross pieces does rise up before you and the souud of the hammer and saw raise a din. Near as the amusement seasou is at hand, the house will be ready, the noise of Max Corput's workmen hushed, aud tbe smell of Kreuger Brothers' paints departed. The new stage ia thirty-five feet deep aud tuirty- four feat wide at tha proscanlum, which is thirty feet in height. The auditorium is sixty feet by ninety- ■ev6D wide, with one gallery extending entirely around the hall; the building inflauked on both sides with windows which will make il one of the coolest as it is the best ventilated hall in the couutry, aud eo excellent are the means of egress that the entire house ro be emptied in eight minutes. The work has been planned and executed by Mr. Max Corpus, and the frescoing, which is for beauty of design and exquisite workmanship perfection, Itself is ths clevar penceiling of the well knowu Atlanta workmen, Kreuger Brothers. Trade Statistics of Atlanta. We regret very much that there is uo accurate sys tem of keeping an accessible record of the amount of the busluess transacted in this city. We have spent much time aud labor in trying to collect the same for the past two years, the result of which we have tabu lated below. Iu this work, our principal reliance haa been the quarterly reports of sales, made to the Clerk ,of the City Council. But we have found it next to impossi ble to get up any figures from these reports with whose accuracy we are satisfied. These returns are not accurately classified, and la Bumming up the classification as recorded, we fouud them to be incorrect in several Instances—largely ao, being widely variant from known facts. We therefore have omitted roost of the footings we made, present ngonly the following. While we know they are not strictly accurate, we are very sure they present a very correct view of the regular Increase of our trade.

To their present stock they are adding a merchant tailoring department and have made extensive preparations for a large trade in this line. Tbey have employed the services s of the best cutters lu the country, together with a large force of tailors snd other employees, and are now receiving an extensive variety of piece goods with which to msnufseture clothing to order. In fine, it is their purpose to carry on the tailoring business a scale commensurate with their other branches. This additional feature will add materially to their re putation of Messrs. M. k J. Hirsch. Both are young who started after the war on a small scale, and who by prudent management have built up an exten sive trade, and are amoDg the most popular clothiers in the city. In their new department the utmost re liance can be placed on them, not only for perfection or fit and style, but also for the quality of goods and the prices charged. Major John C. Whitner. We call particular attention to the card of this old insurance agent. Major Whitner commenced insu rance business nearly twenty years ago, and during that time he haa had experience in every branch cf It, and to-day he stands deservedly in the front rank, as one of the most thoroughly posted and most reliable in his profession. It seems the work ol super erogation for us to say anything in his favor, To his host of old friends we need merely eay tbat he is the same reliable, candid, well-informed insurance man, backed by the best of companies, aa be was years ago wheu bis monogram was first thrown to tbe breeze. Look over bis list—and this is but a partial list—of those who Lave been paid for losses through bis agency and ask each and all if be ever wavered ia se curing them all their just rights. Let the past speak assurances for the present and the future. In conclusion, we will remark tbat the Chamber of Commerce have undertaken to make a correct record of the transactions in every branch of trade for the year. We have no doubt they will do this work care fully and reliably, for they know exactly how it ought to be done, and appreciate its importance. Tne Printing House of tlxe South.
