Financial and Commercial.
To Travellers—We aek the special attention of
tho8ewhoare going in any direction by rail, to the
advertisement of Mr. B. D Msnn. His office is very
convenient—in the ^Kimball House, on the first floor.
He is a regularly appointed ticket agent, and he will
sell a ticket to any point in the United States, or buy
any ticket that you may not have use for.
J. H. Dtkkm an,—This popular clothier, next to the
National Hotel, kesps giving the people '‘fits” in unex
ceptionable clothing.
His stock is superb, fashionable beyond question,
and it is quite the thing to be arrayed in one of Dyke-
man's “suits," and it is not necessary to employ a
lawyer to attend to one of these suits, though all fash
ionable lawyers are always in them.

Collier & Venable.—We csll attention to the car.l
of this Arm which appears elsewhere. Hrarcely more
than two years ago they established their drug busi
ness iu the store then re- ently vacated by Pemberton
k Taylor. Notwithstanding tlss active competition
they enoountared from old and long established deal
ers. they soon built up a floe huaim m and now enjoy
a large and profitable patronage. Both members of
the firm are young men—true types of the pushing,
energetic class of.citlzens who havo built and are ft 11
building up Atlanta. A special feature in their busi
ness is tbeir prescription department, under the
j charge of Mr. It. T.Jourdon, one of the most expe-
received i rienced prescriptionis!* in the city.

Bed wine k Fox.—It is with pleasure that we call at
tention to the advertisement of Bed wine A Fox in this
issue of our paper. The oldest established drug house
in the city and reliable in every reenact, the public
should never cease to patronize them. They have in
the past fulfilled their duties to their customers, and
this is s fair criterion that In the future none need pur
chase without being thoroughly satisfied. It la grati
fying to speak well ot a good honse.
Mark W. Johsson —Tbo great agricultural ware
house of Mr. Johnson, at the corner of A'abtmaard
Korns th street, is one of the most remarkable results
of energy, correct dealing and genuine business
talents in the Soatbern country. This new store
would be an ornament to almost any city; and In it is
founj everythin; In the way of Implements, machin
ery, stock, seeds, fertilizers, etc., that a planter needs.
He sells larg-ly to the terming community, and his
customers find him on tbs square.

Vice President, A. C. Wyly presided. Captain T. L.

A. C. Wyly thought differently, as the bulk of the

P. A G. T. Dodd & Co.
Bat few of the merchants of Atlanta can boast of as
long a business career in this city, and aa uninter
rupted prosperity as can the solid, popular firm ot P.
k G. T. Dodd k Co. Among the first to open business
here, they have long maintained an enviable position,
not only in the mercantile community of this city, bat
among the merchaata of the State. No higher evi
dence of their sterling integrity and liberal dealing
can be required than the fact that among tbeir nu
merous customers are men who oegan dealing with
them fifteen years ago. To-day, with a largely in
creased business, the old familiar firm of P. k G. T.
Dodd k Co. maintains its ground and keeps pace with
the ever progressing prosperity of Atlanta.
Fbase and His Wife —These popular restaura

find tbeir present quarters too much crowded,
and a re going to move into handsomer and larger
quarters (juat below tbeir present stand), where they
will be able to make aa many aa 1,200 people happy in
one day. As little as Pease la, lje is the biggest thing

in the city worthy to have succeeded M. E. Kenney.
He la dealing out Whisky that does not bring head

T. C. Matson.—Prominent among the institutions
of the city la “The Liva Auction Hoaae" of whichT.C
Mayson and J. R. Barrett are the presiding genius#*.
Both are emphatically aelf made men. Starting with
nothing bnt plenty of will and little money they have
worked their way up to the head of the auction trade
of Atlanta. Believing in the old maxim of^“small profit*
and qaick returns,” they are able to aell at prices that
defy competition. In addition to their auction trade
they ara extensive dealers In furniture, aud being
content with a small margin of profits, have undersold
the market repeatedly. They have recently added
carpets to their list of specialties, and propose to
a&tonish the carpet trade thia fall and winter. Barrett

sharp business man. Both are bard workers, and
personally genial and clever. They deserve the patron

In 1803 one of the members of this firm came to At
lanta and opened a small clothing store on Whitehall
street. Beginning with a very small capital, the firm
worked Its way np, and ia now one of the largest
cloning bouses in the State. Three yean ago they
add. l a tailoring department to their business, which
has met with complete ancceaa. They import their
own clothes, a*d have brought to thi* market a quality
of go<«la equal to any In the country. At present they
are nceiving a large stock of superb ready made
clothii g, and their store on Whitehall street ia being
fitted up in elegant style for the fall and winter trade.
For tb- tailoring business they have made extensive
prepare ions, their stock of piece ciotha of their own
manufacture, which are now arriving, excelling all
their previous efforts in that llna. There ia no more
reliable tlothlng bouse in the city, and none that has
a higher or finer reputation for fair dealing.
Finney ’h Carriage Factory—Borne of our people
were a little astonished some months since, when it
waa announced that Finney, our Carriage Factory man
had received an order from Savannah, for $12,000
worth of Sewing Machine Wagon*. Those who knew
of Finney’s resources and energy, knew that the Sa
vannah man had a very level head on, when he sent
this order to him. For neatness of design, for ele
gance of execution, or for durability and comfort in
vehicles, cant be excelled in the South. Hia workmen
are all first class and white; he i running a large and
prosperous establishment, lie i» not at all proud ; not
at all on th* silk etockin-x ord«r, hot daily palls off his
cost, rolls up hit sleeve*, goes nto hi* workshops, and
per# on ally superintends the making of every joint of
every buggy, carriage or wagon. He Isa capital work
man, and if a mechanic in any of the shops falls sick,
Finney can awing the sledge hammer in hia place, and
keep the thing moving nntll the place can be auppUed.
In short, he ia a hard working, prosperous manufac
turer; strong-armed, liberal-hearted and level-headed.
Hia vehicles, like himself, are hard to beat. He man
ufactures about $70,000 worth a year, and of tha very
highest grade. His vehicles have taken tha first pre
ml urns at a dozen Fairs.

under the management of Mr. F. G. Hancock, a young
man of fine address and excellent business qualifica

Scotsbobo, Jackson Co. Ala.,
August 20, 1873.
P. Van Alstine, Barnesville, Ga.—Dear
Sir: On the 2f>th inst., I received one bottle
of Jackson’s Balsam as a present. In the
evening of the same day I was taken with
cramp colic and severe pain in my stomach,
for which I have been subject to spells for
the last twenty years, and never before have I
been able to get any medicine that would re
lieve me sooner than twenty-four hoars. I
began taking yonr Balsam at 3 o’clock in the
evening, and took five doses according to di
rections, and bathed my stomach one time at
aboat 7 o’clock the same day, and in this fonr
hours I was entirely relieved of all pain.
Heretofore when I used medicine to relieve
the pain, I then had to uso strong cathartics
in order to destroy the billions matter. Bat
I have not taken any since I took yonr Balsam
and my bowels have acted regularly one time
daily ever since.
I wish you to send me your wholesale
f »iice of the Balsam, as I am desirous of hav-
og it in my business, as I keep all the popu
lar patent medicines. If yon put it but on
commission, let me know, and if not, let me
know. So you will write me your terms of
disposing of the medicine. There is an old
gentleman in my town that has been confined
to his bed with rheumatism for the last twelve
months, and he tried one bottle of tbe Bal
sam, and thinks it helped him. If you wish
to sell on commission, and establish an agent
in this town, let me bear from you.
I am, yours respectfully,

The London Daily Telegraph deals heavy
blows in behalf of increasing the means of
teaching physics in the British universities.
It says: “While mathematics and clasaios,
together with mental science, or what passes
as such, bring to tbeir devotees remuneration
most solid aud immediate, the pursuit of
those studies which are the birth of our age,
and of which we are proudest, receives scanty
assistance. How cau the professor of expel i-
mental physics at Oxford give adequate in
struction, far less cany ou origiuul investiga
tion, when he is expected to cirole the vast
realms of mechanics, sound, beat, light, aud
electricity? How efib Cambridge rear a school
of physiologists when there «gists no ebsir
alloted to the subject.
until their manufacture was brought to com
parative perfection. Now the use of' these
pipes in that country is very general, especi
ally for house drains.
Either kind of pipe requireB skill and faith
fulness on the part ot those in charge of the
laying of the sewers. The case, however, of
judging of the suitableness of a burnt pipe lor
a sewer is much greater than in the case of a
cement pipe; in lact, it is very difficult, it not
impossible, to be certain with regard to the
cement pipe, while it is not so with regard to
hard-burnt clay.
Cement pipes have been slowly disintegrated
by certain gases and acids emptied into them,
Some very striking instances of this kind oc
curred in San Francisco, where urine from
privies was discharged into the cement pipes.
Nothing of this kind has ever occurred, so far
as I can learn, with well-burnt pipes.
My opinion is tbat hard-burnt or vitrified
clay pipe should be preferred for sewerage
purposes to cement pipe, because the much
greater certainty of getting a good article
of the former than of tho* latter; and in
this respect I have the concurrence of several
distinguished members of the profession, who
have come to their conclusions on the subject
after years of observation aud experience.

J. B. Moulton, City Engineer—Dear Sir:
Yours of the 29th nit was received, and I owe
you an apology for not answering sooner. In
answer to your request for my opinion on the
subject of using vitrified glazed stoneware
r ipen, as compared to cement pipe, for sewers,
will say that, for myself, I should much pre
fer the stoneware pipe, as your assertion that
the cement pipe is seldom of a uniform tex
ture, and is very easily broken, is true, and I
don't consider it as safe and durable as the
stone pipe. If you have laid much of the ce-
meut pipe, I think your experience has taught
you that, when the cement pipe is saturated
with water, it becomes very brittle and difficult
to lay with success; and unless I was laying
sewern of very large calibre, where 1 could lay
it iu the ground like concrete, I should much
prefer the stoneware, as I am satisfied it will
be as enduring as time. Will you take the
trouble to give me your form of ordinance for
esatblinhini’ the grades of your city, and such
ideas as you may be willing to suggest
Very iaspect!ully, W. D. Clabe.
