A meeting will be bold at tlio City llall
to night, for tho purpose of organizing a
society of tbo " Old Field" Alumni. A
largo number of our best citizens will be
present, and it is expected that the Socio-
ty will bo a strong ouo.
Hou. John Nichols, Senator elect from
the Third Diatrict, arrived in the city
yesterday. Ho is a true Democrat of
tho old school, adhering to tho time-
honored prinoiplca of tho party, for tho
sake of troth and right.

H.t.r*. or tfc. Tax Rcr.lv.r*
Day before yesterday wo called on Capt.
A, O. Grier, tho popular llooeivor of Tax
Beturna for Fulton county. We found
that he had jnst completed tlio conoolida-
tion of the Digeat for the present year,
the aggregates of which we published yes
terday, and whioh ia of deep interest to
every tax payor.
Captain Grier’s books are very neatly
and accurately kept, and are highly cred
itable to bits.
Hr ported IhUk of J.S|. J. W. OVVrol.
It woe reported yesterday that Judge
J. W. O’Neal diad at Valdoala the day
prev ious. It is certain that he had been
seriously ill for several days, and was not
expeeted to reoover. The report, os we
received it, teems to be correct, though
it may not be, and we shall bo glad it it
ia a mistake, and that be may bo .pared
many day. of happineas.
We have always opposed him political
ly, bnt recognized him as a gentleman of
ability, with good intentions.
Wo regret that the notice which ap
peared in Ihnt So* yeaterdny of a difficul
ty between a oonplo of gontlemen on
Whitehall street had tbo appearanoe <ff
censuring them in the premiaea. It u
always fair to presume that men of good
standing never get into difficulties for the
love of it, or with the intention of being
diztorbezo^I thepaaoe.
We freely-aty that we had no intention
of refleettag unjustly upon them. Oar
aim mm to espreaa regret at the oecnr-
Maa. What we did say waa written in
harie, and not with the care whioh
•hould be given toaneh matter*.
From all time there has been estrange
tradition handed down to each succeed
ing generation, that somewhere in the
distant West there was a fountain, the
taste of whoso waters would confer upon
the thirsty traveller tho gift of porpotual
youth. Ponce de Loon searched the
flowery rallies of Florida in vain; since
then seekers after tho precious boon
have keen many, and despairing of suc-
oess, they havo ransacked the chemist’s
art The golden hair of tho dead paa-
per hosbccn worn in the ball-room by
higbmindod beauties; faded cheeks have
been made rosy by tho aid of rouge;
while receding symmetry has been hid
den by artinl appliances. It was reserved
for us to discover the Mecca for which so
many have sighed; to ho revivified by Uio
waters of perpetual youth. Wo have
been there; wo havo tasted; and
wo feel that we are ourself again.
As wo turned to leave tho
spot oar attention was
traded by a young and beautiful lady.—
We asked a young man on our loft her
namo, and on being informod that it was
Mis. Youthful, we recollected an old lady
of that name, with whom wo had been
familiar; and supposing this one to bo
young Fred Youthful’s wife, wo stepped
up, inquiring tho stato of her husband’s
health. What was our astonishment
when sho repliod, in seeming anger:
‘‘Sir, I do not understand your mean
ing. lbu know that my husband bus
been dead these twenty yours."
••Madam,’’ wo replied, ‘‘you scarce look
eighteon, and we took you to bo young
Frod Youthful's wife. Wo are well ac
quainted with tho old lady, and after a
short abseneo we have camo back and
heard that Fred was married. On being
informed a few moments since of your
name, we concluded to extend onr con
gratulations to the wifo Jof our esteemed
young friend.”
“Sir, my sou Frederick has got married
to on estimnble young lady; hut I really
cannot seo why you should take tho motk-
or, whom you havo often seen, for the
daugkter-in-luw. There, you eon sec
Frederick and his wifo coming right over
hero now.”
We looked around, and saw a sprightly
ten year old boy and a pretty little ,’girl,
apparently eight or nine. Wo wore con-
fouudod, nud appealed to tho well-dressed
lady for an explanation. By this timo
tho little couple had cotnc up, when Mrs.
Youthful began:
It's all owing to that spring. Yon
know how aged and wrinklod I was.—
Well, I came here, and tho uso of that
water is making me look younger overy
day. Fred nnd bis wifo have been re
duced to children. Seo that well-dressed
young man, with a small black mous
tache. That is Mr. Growhard, who
was over eighty years of age.—
And thcro again, is that sweet-
faced girl sitting by him, If she’s n day
old Bhc’s seventy-llvo. Well, sho don't
look more than sixteen, and has had, oh,
so many eligible offers; hnt she declines
them nil, ns slio' don’t think she is old
enough yet for tho grave responsibilities
of married life. Bless mo ! while I am
talking how young you havo grown I"
Fred held up a looking-glass to onr
face, nnd wo instantly recollected onr col
lege dayn. Wo were fully fifteen years
younger in appearance. By this timo a
large number of young pcoplo were
crowding nround us, wboui wo bad pre
viously known os extremely venerable
people. When wo returned to tho city
110 one knew its, nnd oven onr nndemon-
strativo business manager, Mr. J. IIenly
Smith, patted us gently oil the head, say
ing, " Sonny, what can I do for you ?"

An Biubankm.nl Fall.—On. Man
r»l and another Ml*.lag.
About 5 o’clook yeaterdny evoning a
very soil accident occurred near the State
ltoml shops. A number of colorod men
wore nt work digging earth for tho com
pletion of the sido track running from
the Macon & Western depot. Tlioy kept
digging under tho embankment, and
nearing 5 o’clock the earth abovo broke
loose and camo tnmbling down liko an
avalanebo. Tbo party droppod shovels
and skodadbllod to a safo distance, and on
looking back they saw one of their num
ber being engulphed, and at last bnt one
arm was visible. He kept waving it, un
til it was completely covered up. It took
tho men about half an hour to dig him
out, when they found that ho was dead.
Another negro, it is feared, lias fell a vic
tim, os ho was not heard of at the latest
reports. It may he that he only ran
away.
It is a straugo fatality that people can
not take warning by so many accidents of
this kind. A largo number of precisely
similar accidents have occurred, and yet
they seem to moke no impression upon
thoeo who ought to bo most interest
ed. If people will dig away nnder tho
earth it will fall, and if anybody is under
they aro pretty sure to bo engulphed.—
It is to be hopod that a better lookout
will be kept next time.

If there is anything that affords us
real pleasure, it is to inako mention of
our mechanics. Among tho hundreds
who arc working to build up Atlanta by
their industry and energy, none aro more
deserving tho encouragement of the
public, than tho hard-fisted, wido-a-wako
A. T. Finney, of carriage manufactory
fame. Commencing with small capital,
at the end of the war, ho has, by his
energy and skill, built up one of the
largest manufactories of carriages and
buggies in this State. His work has
stood the test, and ho now has a reputa
tion in the Stato for good work that iu
itself is worth a fortune. For style and
durability, bis work is not supassed by
tho best manufactories of tho North;
while for durability, his surpasses the
best. This establisment is always jam
full of work; nud presents n business
appearance. We cheerfully recommond
Mr. Finney’s carriages and buggies to
tho people generally, as unsurpassed in
durability and elegant in style.

Ho was in the neighborhood of Castle

so this morning, we suppose, when ho ap

TUADIXG A MULE FOR WHISKEY.
How n Countryman put the llccr on n
Commissary Sergeant.
Thcro aro many good tales told, even
at this lute day, of how tho boys would
go about putting themselves outside a
quart or two of whiskey, and wo heard
ono yesterday that will bear repeating :
A certain quartermaster’s cub, who
u felt his keeping,” aud who was noted
for his pride in his position, and who
also had an impression that his position
was just a little higlior than that of a
Major General’s, notwithstanding his po-
sisli was several miles in the rear of offi
cers of tho line, and which he always
held with diguity and pertinacity, was
passing through tho good old county of
Campbell, during Sherman’s “ march to
tho sea.” Ho was in his normal condi
tion-dry, aud tho accidental meeting of
a countryman suggested to his mind the
fact that it was barely possible to get a
little corn whiskey in that county. Ho
approached the countryman on the sub
ject, and was informed that a few gallons
could bo had upon a pinch. The Ser
geant proposed to take it, nud wanted to
move off directly toward tho still, with
the 4-horse wagon of whioh ho had
charge. The countryman inquired if he
had the money to pay for it—not fancy
ing the countenance of tho Sergeant—
telliug him that his looks were too Yan-
keeish to put him in communication with
tho corn juice nntil the money, or its
equivalent, was iu hand. The Sergeant
protested that ho had no money, but was
willing to swap ono of tho Government
mules for it The trade was consummat
ed, tho countryman saddled tho mule,
and Fitch (now doing the dirty work for
tho Griffin Star) drove off his spike
team, with whisky enough to last him a
couple of days. That’s tho sort of fel
low Fitch is 1

A RICH CASK.
What the Demi-Monde Eat and Drlult—
Beauty on <hc Stand.
It is not often that one baa set before
him a more interesting bill of fare than
that enjoyed by Justice Johnson yester
day. There is an absorbing interest at
tached to every thing in which woman is
interested.
Miss Abide Howard, one of the most
notorious of the Atlanta demi-monde, eats
like other people, but drinks unlike
many people. Of course she has to supply
her household wants, aud when the bill
is presented, aud sho has nothing left to
show for it, sho feels bad about parting
with her money. Sho run her face at W.
C. Hugh’s to tliG'extent of $28.50, and
then refused to fork over tho “scads.”—
Thus it was that Miss Abbie, iu company
with two other of liko ilk, were required
to havo an interview with Justice John
son. Tlio bill was presented in Court,
aud gavo au insight into the daily habits
of these eccentric females. Two dozen
bottles of ale daily was required to wash
down their frugal fare. Mustard, flour,
beans, and quite a variety of articles were
enumerated; but the capping of the cli
max was an item of two bunohes of ou-
ions! Just think of it, onions ! Miss
Kirby eats goobers.
His Honor studied tbo case, and come
to the conclusion that the articles enu
merated were such in quantity as are usu
ally ordered by families, except the ale,
which he thought was rather more so.—
He therefore decreed that Miss Abbie
would save much trouble by paying up.—
The trio gathered their trails and left like
blue smoke.
NcBrlile & Co.
Among the many firms in Atlanta that
arc becoming noted for their enterprise
and energy thero is none more deserving
than that of McBrido & Co. This is one
of the heaviest crockery firms in tho
South. Besides its vast wholesale and
retail trade, it does a. large importing
business, buying the goods directly at the
hands of European manufacturers. A
member of the firm has lately been in
Europe, where ho selected a large stock
of the lutest styles of crockery, glass ware
and other goods in their line.
This firm is one that has done much
for the, jobbing trade of Atlanta. They
have used all legitimate means of bring
ing their goods to the attention of the
public, and sncccoded long ago in dc-riv
ing a good trade from this and the ad
joining States. The fact that they have
been ablo to hold this trade and to steadi
ly increase it, shows a strong argument in
their favor. Wo tako great pleasure iu
commending them to tho public. They
aro able to sustain themselves under any
demand thatamay be made upon them.
J. X. Freeman.
We nvo plenseil to notice tlint this gen
tleman lias taken charge of and is now
giving his personal attention to tho man
agement of tho old nnd popular music
house of Geo. Cook & Co., on Marietta
Street. This establishment has gained a
very desirable reputation; and ns a depot
for musical instruments of overy kind is
not surpassed by any establishment in
the South.
Tho favorite Qaliet, Davis & Co. Piano
is n specialty with Goo. Cook & Co; whilo
tho celebrated Shoninger Organ is offer
ed on most reasonable terms. Their
stock of instruments of every description
is extensive; and thcro is no man in At
lanta that it gives us more pleasure to
recommend than Mr. Freeman. The la
dies will liud them attentive and polite—
always ready to wait on them patiently.

THE CUSTOM HOUSE.
Na,w that little affair between the Cus
tom officials and tho Government of the
United States is all settled, that the Well
man deficit is made up, and the authori
ties at Washington are satisfied and quiet
ed, that the milk in the cocoa-nut has
been found, and the responsibility of that
small eight thousand dollar difference
rests upon the shoulders that ought to
bear it; in other words, that tho trno de
faulter has been hunted up, treed and
brought down, pouring out tlio most pi
ous adulations to his chief into the cure
of Government, who, in order to reward
the immaculate and evince its penitence
for post suspicions and lack of confidence,
rumors of removal and all such hasty con
clusions, unjust and unfounded threats,
finally, that the Government is assured
of the unquestioned and unquestionable
honesty, loyalty, efficiency and indispen-
sible worth of tho great Collector, he is
returned to his position, doubly fortified
nud strengthened, with full power, it is
said, to pluco, replace and displace whom
soever he pleases iu the employment of
the Government, so far ns the Custom
House and its various branches aro con
cerned.
It is likely that whenever his spotless
majesty takes a pinch of snuff his sub
jects will sneeze, whether voluntarily or
otherwise, and the stamp of his foot
means “rats to your holes.” So, beware
now, yo Custom House vermin, and mind
your eyo. Take warning from the fate of
the dead ducks, who once quacked with
the best. Remember “old Bitters,”
“Pine Apples,” and “Honey,” and don’t
bo too kuowiug in matters that iWf con
cern you.
For tho benoflt of tho outs wo publish
tho following changes that have recently
been made. Look over the nnrnes care
fully, ye anxious hopefuls, aud see if yon
oan’t spot nn undeserving one, or a shaky
individual who may drop off by a little
managing, and leave a vacancy:

keeper; E. T. Pillsbury, Weigher and
Onager.
Removal by order if the Secretory if the

permanent appointment will be made

sv. Itullock’s Advertising—
The Constitution.
In our Issue of yesterday morning,
speaking of Gov. Bullock having
caused his long letter to the Kit Klux
Committee to be extensively published
in the newspapers in the United States
by paying for the same as an adver
tisement, we said:
It was published by bim in tho Con
stitution of this city, and the Ctmstitutwn-
olitl, ot Augusta, for 850 each—so we art:
informed from a source not likely to lie
mistaken.
Upon this, the Constitution, in its
edition of lust evening, remarks:
Tho statement that Gov. Bullock had
Ilia letter published in the Constitution,
paying 850 for the same, is an utter mis
take. We intended to give a synopsis of
the letter lor tho benefit of our readers,
according to tlie rule of every well con
ducted nows journal, to furnish general
information of the eveuta and nows of the
day.
But one of our citizens camo to the
office and offered to pay for its insertion.
Wo stated that wo should charge him 850
for its publication in full. He agreed to
pay it, and he was consequently charged
upon tho books of the business office with
that amount. Governor Bullock was not
known in the transaction; nor did auy
one in vhe business office of the Constitu
tion dream that the publication was to bo
an official advertisement; nor was it.
It seems the only mistake we made
in our statement, is, that though The
Constitution published it as an ad
vertisement, aud was paid 850 for
the same, yet it was done at the in
stance of a private party, and not by
Governor Bullock as an “official ad
vertisement.”
We very cheerfully give our neigh
bor the benefit of this statement. We
did not suppose that what
wo said would do The Con
stitution any injustice, nor was
such our object. We only aimed
to establish tho fact that tho Gov
ernor was paying the newspapers to
publish his letter. It seems that some
friend of his—probably holding some
of the bonds lie is charged with hav
ing illegally issued—procured the
publication in Tlie Constitution—
which amounts to about the same
thing as if lie had done it directly
himself. Wc tlii..k it likely that
Gov. Bullock paid the 850, and that
his go-between accomplished a grand
feat for him, viz: flic publication of
the long letter in (he columns of
The Constitution, tlotj cheap; for wo
are informed from a source not
likely to be mistaken, that the Gov
ernor paid other journals a much
higher price—among which was 8150
to our friend Grady, to get it into
the columns of the Homo Commer
cial.
In making these statements we do
not mean any reflection upon the
journals whioh published the letter.
If it had been offered to ns as an ad
vertisement, we should have pub
lished it and commented on it.
