Important Notice.
We earnestly request any person desiring
to send money to this office, for any
purpose, to forward it either by postoffice
order or Southern Express—the latter
preferred. a
On no account send it by letter, as we
are continually receiving complaints of
money having been sent which has never
reached us. Friends, take warning, ts
Godejr’c Lady’s Book (or April.
The enterprising Quinn, News Agent,
nearly opposite our office, has the above
old-established fashion monthly for April
for sale at his counter.
Obligation.
The thanks of the friends of Colonel R, B.
Bcli.ock,the gallant standard-bearer of Resto
ration, are due to the distinguished editor
“east of the Ocouee,” who nominated Mr.
Reese at the Democratic anti-Union Con
vention, iu Macon, a day or two since. The
gentleman from Richmond has general-ly
been on the losing side, and this nomination
we have Reese-n to believe settles the
—. Tm year oi ouDueo "is coming.
Pleasant Visit.
We passed three or four days, of the
past week, quite pleasantly in Atlanta—
the future capital of the Empire State of
the South—and were more than ever im
pressed with the conviction that the day is
not remotely distant when the “Gate City”
shall have become the'leading metropolis
of our favored sunny clime.
In common with the spirit of architec
tural improvement exhibited by the citr
zens of Atlanta, the United States Gov.
eminent is erecting, upon the locality
known as the Race Grounds, buildings for
the U. S. Barracks. The track, comprising
fifty acres, is enclosed with a high plank
fence, painted white, a mile in length, with
an ornamental gateway for vehicles or
pedestrians. The buildings will accommo
date a regiment—one thousand men; the
ten main barrack buildings, we allude to,
each adapted to the accommodation of one
hundred men. To every other one of these
buildings there is a mess room, containing
a kitchen for two companies, constructed
with the same view to comfort and dura
bility as are the main buildings—each
barrack having its laundry of four rooms,
twenty feet square, each room to accommo
date one laundress, generally the wife of
the Sergeant.
The officers' quarters are two story build
ings, eight rooms, eighteen by twenty feet.
Each field and staff officer has a separate
house, containing six rooms, with commodi
ous kitchen in the rear. There are five of
these buildings—one each for the Colonel
Lieutenant Colonel, Major, Surgeon, and
Chaplain.
In the Northern part of the grounds is an
immense hospital—the central portion of
which, containing rooms for the convenience
of the Surgeons, is two stories high. The
wards are in the two wings, each one hun
dred feet long; piazzas running entirely
around both wings, affording an admirable
promenade.
It it supposed that the completion of the
Barracks and grounds will cost nearly one
hundred and fifty thousand dollars. About
three hundred workmen are at present em.
ployed. The work is being performed under
the direction of Gen. Saxton and Lieutenant
Wray, who have displayed excellent judg"
ment in the selection of the locality, and in
the arrangemeut of the quarters.
Os course, we “put up” at Nickerson’s
famous National Hotel, and were under
many vui s^— . »r> tho verv efficient corps
of officials—Messrs- Wheklock, Meistbr.
and Harris.
Loan Atsoeiatiom* and the Home*
Head Bill.
The following is the Homestead Bill, as
finally passed by the Convention of this
State:
Section 1. Each head of a family, or
guardian, or trustee of a family or minor
children, shall be entitled toa homestead
of realty to the value of two thousand dol
lars in specie, and personal property to the
value of one thousand dollars in specie,
both to be valued at the time they are set
apart. And no court, or ministerial officer
in this .State, shall ever have jurisdiction
or authority to enforce any judgment, de
cree, or execution against said property so
set apart (including such improvements as
may be made thereon, from time to time)
excf.pt Jor taxes, money borrowed and ex
pended in the improvement of the homestead,
or for the purchase money of the same, and
for labor done thereon, or material furnished
therefor, or removal of encumbrances
thereon. And it shall be the duty of the
General Assembly, as early as practicable,
to provide, by law for tho setting apart and
valuation of said property, and to enact
laws for the full and complete protection
and security of the same to the sole use
and benefit of said families as aforesaid.
Read the italic lines carefully.
