d here at home ‘the heat' is the great
lie of conversation. Every one you meet

OUR ATLANTA LETTER
" Atlanta, Ga., July 20, 1868.
To-day we had rather an exciting time in
the House, caused by Mr. Caldwell, of Troup,
reporting a resolution that the action of the
House, together with all the testimony taken
by the Committee in reference to the eligi
bility of members, be laid before the Gov
ernor, and through him to General Meade.
Those who are acquainted with Mr. Caldwell
and familiar with his Stylo of oratory, pro
nounce his effort in support of the resolution
as a decided success. He spoke at some
length, and facilitated the importance he
attached to so important a subject by having
written notes before him. He was flie only
speaker oh the occasion, and closed by call
ing the previous question, which was sus
tained-
On the main question, the yeas and nays,
were insisted upon, and resulted in yeas 81,
nays 82, resulting in a majority of' only one
vote for the opposition.
The measure proposed simply wished
uniformity of the two Houses; as the Senate
had passed a similar resolution, and, by this
means, the General Commanding could sec
for himself that the Legislative body had
been purged thoroughly.
The opposition contended that the com
mittee of the two Houses had investigated
the whole question, made their report, and
all that was necessary was to transmit their
action in the premises, sustained an it was
by the vote of the House.
' Fears are entertained by some that the
General will object to declare a permanent
organization, unless lie has the whole
testimony, by which he can be guided.
In the Senate, Mr. Winn introduced a
resoltitiun looking t* the appointment of a
Joint Committee to draft a suitable pream
ble and resolutions, and to adopt speedy
means to reinstate Georgia in the Union in
accordance with the acts relating thereto.
The Senate not being organized as a legal
body, the same was laid vn the table for
the present
After a recess of half an hour the Senate
reassembled, and Mr. deGraffehreid, Secre
tary to the Governor, delivered a message in
reference to the papers, evidence and action
;of the Senate in relation to eligibility. The
Governor stated that he had transmitted
the same to General Meade, and enclosed
his reply. The General had received the
papers with the Governor’s endorsement
and his objections to some members retain
ing their seats ; he would retain all of the
documents until he could hear officially as
to thr action of the House. It appears thas
by an oversight the committee had neglect
ed to include the resolution, properly en
dorsed, conveying to him the result of thei r
investigations, hence the delay.
The Senate adjourned.
We- bear of many caucuses m contem
plation to-night, and it is the opinion of
many that a too-frequent repetition of them
serves to divide, the party. The opposition
is blessed with the sama mania, and the
anxious faces of the democracy express
fears of the result on tire Fourteenth Article
of the Amendment.
I find here, after several days absence,
your esteemed fellow citizen, Hon. Foster
Blodgett.. He appears in improved health
and spirits, and his genial manneys, together
with a fund of political facts, renders his
company much sought after, ■
The weather here has been intensely
warm, whilst tho dust is accessory in pro
viding the uncomfortable feeling pervading
the community.
If the two Ileuses uro organized, ibis
week, the election of United Stetcs Senator
will take place Tuesday week.' Matters
will be hastened somewhat, as it is the view
entertained by many that Omgrcss may
get impatient at the delay. Baldwin.
Suu.lroKc.
The following remedy for sunstroke, coni
mended by eminent physicians, is highly
important just now : A great preventative
to sunstroke is temperance, and avoiding as
much as possible exposure to intense heat;
the keeping of regular hours, taking one’s
regular meals, and shunning all excesses-
There are two forms in which people aue
affected by excessive heat. The first
generally peeves after undue exertion, and is
marked by faintness or inability to move.
The pulse is feeble and the skin cool and
moist. In such cases relief is afforded .by
removing the person to a cool, shady [dace,
applying cool water or ice,to the hejnl, and
administering brandy and ice water, or
other stimulant, which will set the nervous
system right again. In the more fatal form
of sunstroke the patient falls suddenly to the
ground; hie skin is hot and dry, bis
breathing short, and sometimes convulsions
set in. If aid be not.promptly administered
death will immediately ensue. In this else
the party should be removed to-a cool place,
the crowd kept back, his clothing should be
stripped off, and his whole body rubbed with
ice from head to foot, and pieces of ice kept
under each arm pit. This treatment should
be persevered in until the arrival of a doctor,
or until it is evident the patient is past
recovery.
Duck*.
A certain husband complains sadly at the
grice of “ducks.” His wife recently bought
three for $226, viz : A “duck” of a dress, a
“duck” ot a bonnet, and a “duck” of a
parasol.
Blind Tom Eclipsed.
The Norfolk (Va.) Journal says that
more than two hundred ladies and gentle
men have visited the residence of Mr. Cauff
man, at Ferry Point, during the last ten
days, to witness the performance on the
piano of his little blind boy, bitty twenty
seven mouths old. Every one expresos
delight and astonishment at this musical
prodigy, and already several offers have
been made by Northern gentlemen to intro
duce the performance of this child to the
public.

FOURTEENTH ARTICLE ADOPTED.
Atlanta, Jnly 2l»—The Senate-received
a communication from the Governor, accom
panied by a letter from General Meade, who,
in reply to the Governor's communication
notifying the Commanding General of the
action of the House in declaring all its
members eligible, says: “I now .advise-and
instruct you, that each House having com
plied with the requisitions of my communi
cation of the Bth by examining into
and deciding on the eligibility of their mem
bers under the 14th Article, I have no
further opposition to make to their proceed
ing to the business for which they were
called together, and consider them legally
organized from the 18th inst?’
A motion to refer all masters pertaining to
the 14th Article was lost, and the Senate
proceeded to act Un the 14th Article, which
was adopted by a vote of 27 to 14.
The House passed the 14th Article by a
vote of 89 to 70.

Washington Items.
Washington, July 21.—The. Senata
remained in session till midnight, when the
Military bill was passed. It reduces the
army to 30,000. There shall be three
infantry and one cavalry regiment colored.
It musters out all except the West Point
band- It gives one thousand Springfield
rifles to each Congressional Disttict, on
condition that the Secretary of War is
satisfied that the militia are loyal. The lasi
provision excited sharp debate.
Drake said that if he had his way he
would arm every loyal man in the Southern
States a Springfield rifle and cartridges
ad libitum, arid so far as he was concerned,
ho was perfectly willing for it to be written
on this bill that these arms were intended
tor the protection of loyal men at the polls.
The vote in the Republican caucus to day
showed eighty as favoring a recess to Sep
tember or October, against twenty-eight
favoring a regular adjournment.
There was a full Cabinet to day, including
Mr. Evarts for the first time.
Belli Houses were in session to night.
Gillem’s report regarding Mississippi says
both parties charge fraud, but he can find

exist or may occur in civil State or national
offices.

New York Cotton Review.
Naw Yosk, July 17, IIS6B.
Dur last Circular reviewed the market to the
IVtb instant, whou we quoted Middling Uplands
at 32|c., with a very tamo market. On Saturday
tho market was very irregular, dull, and
altogether in buyers’ favor. The business was
eonfmod to 1,700 bales, all but 200 going to
spinners. Gold, 1411- On Monday there was
some little call for Low Middlings, which wero
eteady, but all tho rest of the grades lower.
Sales 1,400 bales, 1,200 going to spinners. Gold,
141 L On Tuesday the demand continued the
same as on tho previous day, and a business of
1,700 bales done, J,400 going to spinners. On
Wednesday the market opened very weak, and
all grades wero lower. Tho offering of some
warehouse lists frightened holders, and quota
tions were very Irregular. Some sales wero on a
basis of 30Jc., but tho wore steadier.
Salos' 1,060 bales, all to manufacturers. Gold,
142 J. On Thursday Liverpool accounts were
about the same as they had sent all the week,
dull at llj. for Uplands. Tho lone of our
market was a shade firmer, and a very fair
business of 2,000 bales, alt to spinners, was.
accomplished. To-day tho market has been
more steady, and prices are firmer, although the
■ Iran cod has cheeked business.
Cable advices since our last has boon -regularly
received, and report a dull market with some
little decline, Oplands closing at llallid. The
sales of the week foot up 47,000 bales, ineiudiug
38,000 to the trade, 0,006 to exporters, 2,91-0 to'
speculators. Stock in port 553,000 bates 329,000
being Amotioan- Slock on the water 743,000
bales, 21,000 from this country.
Our own market since our last report has been
quiet, irregular and closes lower than last week.
Demand has been almost wholly frmn spinners,
and has run entirely on the low Middling grades,
For quotations have been entirely
nominal, and the lower grades have only sold at
a greater discrepancy than quoted last week.—
Ttiere has been some inquiry tor very poor cot
ton from bag manufacturers, but such grades are
quite scarce, and prices offered have been consid
erably below holders' views. Speculation has
done tittle or nothing in spot cotton, the sales
for future delivery seeming of more interest to
this class of speculators. Larg£ sales have been
made at sellers’ option for Docemlfer at 24c. for
Middlings and some of our manufacturers are.
buying at these prices. The “short interest” in
Lhe staple was probably never so largo as at pre
sent, and will afford much strength to tho open
ing price of the ineoming crop. Offers have been
made to some of our mills to supply them with
all the raw material they may need for the next
90 days at 32c. for Middlings. We hear of no
sales of transit cotton, and all cargoes now en
route for Europe will probably bo allowed to go
forward on owners' account. On thvother hand
we learn from undoubted authority that a small
lot of Middlings are on the way from Liverpool
to this market. The offering stock during the
week has been very heavy, and tome largo lines
held by warehouse companies have been persist
ently presse I, and done mooji to add to the weak
ness of the market. The intensity of the heat
during the past week has also bad much to do
with the quiet tone by causing the absence of
many operators. Recent political events have
given a rising tendency to the gold market in
spite es the heavy payments made by the govern
ment in the way of interest arid redemption. The
first bale of new cotton has been daily expected
in New Orleans, but by the latest telegrams its
arrival iareot announced. Our friends will bear
in mind that new cotton can be shipped without
paying any tax ; but that old cotton will bo tax
ed even after September; tho repeal of the tax
applying only to cotton raised after the year 1867.
