American Hotel. This old and well-known public Houae list pres snt beiug managed by a oorpa of gentlemen, who V certainly know how to keep a hotel. Although they [ make no very great flourish of trumpets about what * being done around there, nor have those tremen- r long bills of fare with an ondless variety of out landish dishes, yet for a good old fashioned square U, well cooked and well served, commend Water Works. Mr. Adama, the contractor with the City Council to build Wator Works in Atlanta, lias an address in The Sum this morning. It aecma that the old Connell entered into a con tract with Mr. Adams to construct Water Works on what is known as the Cornish system. The new Council, it scorns, have tried to annul the contract Our people, to a great extent don’t understand the uature of the difficulty. Mr. Adama proposes to en lighten them on this matter in the present and sub sequent papers. Urn. Lee and ike Water Worke. Tb yesterday’s Constitution is au article on the ac ceptance of the •‘situation" by Gen. Lee, in which he is made to aay ’‘Controversy did no good." This wri ter fully endorses the sentiment. In the same paper is an article beaded “A Plea for the Mechanics *f Atlanta," which, I think, la calcu lated to atir up controversy, which, for foregoing reasons, will not be replied to. The Local is respectfully informed that if be wll* apply in the proper quarter, the bonds he don't know about can be found, duly executed. In the language of another military man—let us have Peacn. John Krcly Will Offer for Bale on Hia Bargain CoaaUr, Commencing Mondav, Tune 19th, avery desirable lot of goods at prices which cannot fall to ensure their speedy sale. Those goods consist in part of a Job lot of white muslins opened on Friday, 16th, and also of other goods which have been added to tills lot, from lar stock, but wbich he has decided to sell while there Is still a demand for them. Amongst the gooda offered on th's counter will be •found : \N iitic Muslin in almost every grade ; White Pique from 12)£c per yard ; White Brilliants, (beautiful styles); Towels, Table Linens, Napkins ; Child’s Linen Iiresses (ready-made); A few Dress Goods, Gloves, etc. Prices guaranteed lower than similar goods have •ver before been offered. John Knelt, Junl9dtt) Corner Whitehall aud Hunter Hta. By an act of the last Legislature provision waa tad# to build Water-Works In the city of Atlauta. Commissioners were to be elected and bonds, kuowu as Water Bonds, not to exceed $500,000. were to be leaned. Until the election of such Commlaalonera, the Mayer and Council of the city of Atlanta were clothed with all the power under the act. The Mayor and Council, In pursuance of this power made a contract for the Cornlah system. It has beeu asserted that this was not a contract- We made a proposition, which was. by resolution of Council accepted, and every one who knows the Code of Georgia, knows that this is a contract; and we are informed by the beat legal talent, that We came here at our own expeuae—brought the best engineering talent kuowu to the country, and expend- ; and under the law are entitled to have this contract entered Into, aud curried out lu good feith. Aa aoon as as the oontract waa made, jertla* op posed to all Water-Works, filed a bill to t-njuiu the city of Atlanta from carrying this co into effect. Judge Ezaard, aa Mayor, swore • answer filed by the city, and we refer to hia tmrt for a history of that contract, kgaln, the Supreme Court of this State decided that Injunction did not lie, aud that the City Council did have the power. Why. we might aak.did this tribu nal decide that the Mayor aud Council had the power to make this contract, if there waa no contract? A child can aee where the thing ateuda. If there wax no ooutracl made, thau there was no question as to tin power. It waa because there was a contract, that the power to make it was brought iuto question. have been ready to perform the contract; and every shift has been made to get the city out of it The Water Commissioners say they have made u contract. The City Council hav<- already made one. Now, by what authority do the Commissioners make this contract, If by the Act only $^oo,uuu lu Water Bonds can bo Issued, and these have already beeu contracted for ? Where ia the power of the Commis sioners to plunge the oity into litigation ? But they say few is not a contract Well, we w ill submit that question to the courts, aud let them say; and If we have not a contract there la time enough to make a new one. But If <Au is valid, then they have no power, and the tax payer will resist tin- first levy of tax to pay interest, aud thus the credit • t the CWy Bonds be Injured by this proceeding. But i may be said that our rights are at law for damages. Bo it ia In part, and that right we will exercise. But we may have others. The report of Mr. Murphy on the Cornish system of Water Works shows Its value and its advantages iu a successful, continuous and economical supply oi water, and are facte of public information, world wide. It has stood the teat and come out victorious all, and if the people knew what we know—11 water is to be introduced, they would have it and no other. I deem it proper to aay that I will try the courts and hope through them to find out, aud t-aoh justice and felr dealing all round. The lesaon may be wort- what it oosta for future transactions to the city. 1 now beg to aay that I have no wish to enter iu r newspaper discussion of this subject; my only dt-sirt i, that the tax-payers aud tha public generally may know all the facta In the case. • Jab.

Though the announcement that a meet ing would be held at DeGivw’s Opera Houhc laHt night, in the interest of tha Georgia Western Kailroad, was not made until yesterday morning, and even then due publicity waa not given to it, vel eight o’clock yesterday evening found a good audience, composed mainly of the beat citizens of Atlanta, assembled at the Opera Houae*. This may be regarded as a good omen that the people’s thoughts are in the right direction iu this matter, for if there is anything in the world At lanta folks won’t do, it is attend a pub lic meeting. The fact that so many sub stantial men were out attests the high estimate in which is held this new rail road connection. Among those present wo noticed CoL Glenn, Mr. Norcross, Alderman Cassin, El-Governor Brown, Col. Peters and many others, whom or readers will recog nize as among our leading citizens. Dr. C. L.

It is, ‘Stand back and let my Lord pass.’ As a general tiling English women are not handsome, alt hough I have seen some lieautifnl ones. They have large feet, and look coarse to Ameri can eyes, und they cannot talk. Tliev very seldom say anything original, seem to read very little, and do very little thinking for themselves. They do not talk to men at ail as we do.— The dowagers look so old-timey.— They wear such old-fashioned jewels and such old-fushioned, stiff brocade silks. They put me in mind of hens with their chickens, as they sit and talk to each other, keeping their eyes all of the time on their daughters, for there are so many German officers und French refugees iu sooiety here, and some of them such handsome men, that mammas are kept in a state of perpetual auxiety, fearing some entanglement. About five o’clock in the evening evenrbody goes ont for a drive in Rotton Row. The sight is a splendid one. Then you see all the fashionable part of London; and then the women, elegantly dressed, lolling in their carriages and attend ed by their cavaliers, appear at their best Central Park is nothing to it The whole drive is lined with pcopl sitting in chairs, staring at the thousands of carriages as they pass. The New York Sun compares Greeley to an eagle and Grant to a jackadaw.— Fr- mi the manner in which Grant ha- gone to prattling of late, it would be far better to style him a magpie. IJrofrssiona!
