When Mr. Kimball sold the Opera to the Legislature, there was I mortgage lien of $60,000 upon it, crea ted by Mr. K. That mortgage is still unsatisfied—or was a short timo ago, and we suppose is yet Did the Governor pay any lawyer i fee to examine the title to this property before it was aooepted and paid for by him t If so who was it, and what fee was paid ? Did Bullock know of the ex istence of such mortgage? 7a Make a KIm. It was currently reported in the city yesterday, that a dispatch bad beenjreceiv- ed from Mr. Kimball, stating that Clews k Company had effected a salo of his lunds, and that he would bo back in a few days with arnplo funds. Wo oould not trace this rumor to any reliable source. ^ Tht Uooiglit Contract lag Company. We alluded yesterday to the Governor trying to secure contractors on the Bruns wick and Albany Bailroad in preference to the State, and mentioned that Mr. Kimball himself was a member of the above named company, which had heavy contracts on the road. ,Wehave examined the proper records, and find Ant the company is composod of H. L Kimball, E. N. Kimball, and Goo. Cook. Too Mock In Advance. If the Brunswick and Albany Bailroad was fully completed, the bonds to bo in dorsed by the State, ($3,300,000), and State bonds delivered to the company, ($1,880,000),would amount to a total State liability of over rrvs millions—all for one Bailroad! This road is completed only to Albany —and is said to l>e vory poorly constnict- wd sa far m it haa gone—yet tho wholo five millions and over have been fully ex ecuted aud delivered to the Governor near six months ago, by his ordor ! This would have been proper, if the road hail been fully completed according to law, but it has not, and no one can tell when it will bo. That Proclamation Illegal* Tho Governor’s proclamation, seizing the Brunswick and Albany Bailroad, is 'not only one of the clumsiest, most awk ward aud Uly gotten np Stato papers that ever was published in Georgia, but it is positively illegal—being issued in viola-, tion of law. It purports to havo been attested, and the Great Seal of tho Stato attached by Judge dotting, tho Secretary of State; yet the Judge nover knew anything of it till he aaw it published iu tho Governor's Organ. He seems to act as thongh ho had authority to use thoaiguaturcs of the State House officers for any purpose ho pleases, without consulting them. Some of tho Governor’s friends think ho is orazy—gone stark mod—and ought to bo in the Lunatic Asylum. Other poo- pie take another view of tho aubjoot. Am I.ttmM Pally tv kv a Judgt. The Governor, in his unlawful aud sham proclamation, lias appointed prom inent lawyers of Georgia to toko proof that all bonds purporting to havo been iu domed or issued by tho State, to the Brunswick and Albuuy Bailroad, have baea legitimately applied to tho construc tion of th* road, .before the State will recognize their validity; aud he aays he has issued the proclamation to tho end that all laborers and contractors, as well aa the State, may bo duly paid for their work.

Let ns not again witness Bio scenes which some of ns have beheld in days past. Chamber or Cimmin, Last night a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce was held at their hall, President B. E. Crane in the Chair. The Chair annonnoed tho various com mittees, among which was one composed of a representative of each industry, for tho purpose of preparing correct market report* for tlie prees. By this means the press reports will be reliable. Tho question of freights elicited some discussion. As a curious fact, it was stated that goods could bo shipped from Mew York, via Charleston, through to Nash riUc and then back to Atlanta tor 26 per cent, less than they would be shipped direct to Atlanta. A committeo was ap pointed to endeavor to procure a materi al redaction in rates; failing in which, they are empowered to muko favorable arrangements with some particular route, and pledge to it the entire freight of tho city. It was arranged that mootings should be held every sooond Friday night, com mencing on the 3d November. Tho canal subject waa introduced by J. Norcross, and, meeting with considera ble favor, a committeo was appointed to wait on Maj. McCalla, of the V. B. En gineer Corps, now in tho city, and Maj. McFarland, U. S. Chiof Engineer, who will bo in tho city on Monday, and pre sent to them tho earnest desire of the pooplo of Atlanta, that tho survey either run through the city, or as near it as practicable. The use of the Hall Was tendered to tho Press Convention, which meets here Wednesday next, and load calls were made on Col Whidby fora speech. The Colonel had road Grant’s Portland ora tion, and declined. The meeting then adjourned. 01(1 John RohlniOM. Mr. John A. Wood of John Robinson's circus, is in tho city.

Lowis, tho Sec rotary of the Stato Agricultural Society, sent the loom down to Macon on Saturday last to bo exhibited at tho Fair. Some of tho hands in removing it from the cars at Macon, injured tho needles by which it operates, and it isuow at tho Fair, but the agonts are unable to work it, or were on Tnesday last, aud were npprehensivo they would not bo able to get it iu order during tho Fair, nor uutil new needles oould be obtained from the manufactory. Tho actual injury to tho machinery is slight, bnt it cannot repaired except from tho manufactory, of which there is only one in the United States. The daniago in not being able to exhibit its 'orkingat the fairs iu Macon and Augusta is very serious to the agents. l.il,i 1 Against ihtSl.n- Bome time since sorno articles were published iu thu Dec licilung, a German newspaper of this city, discouraging Germans f rum immigrating to the South, and especially Atlanta, representing that they woro abused and insulted without cause. Forthwith, the German citizens of this place turned out cn masse, held an indignatiou meeting, aud denounced thia publication, pronouncing it false. In this meeting Mr. Theodore Sohuman of this city, took an activo part. Ho, betides, took occasion to condemn the articles privately. Mr. Otto Palmer, editor of l)er Zeilmig, in a spirit of vindication, spoke of Mr. Sohmnan os undeserving tho confidence of tho community. Yesterday, in bohalf of the State, and on affidavit of Mr. Schnman, Mr. Palmer was anosted on chargo of libel against tho State, and carried before Judge Butt. He waived examination, and gave bond in the aom of $1.00$ h*r his appearance at Court. M.a.y MM« CSM Market*. Yesterday gold was buying for $1.10— Uing far $1.12. Silver buying $1.04— selling $1.08.

Smillio’s card, in Thx Sun, of the 23d mat, it it only necessa ry to call attention to two or three of his assertions to prove that the protest of the several Sewing Machine Agents was well grounded: 1st. Ho says that two of the committee examined tho Machine iu “private," the very thing wo complained of, and they declared their competency to decide with out examination at the Fair. 2d. Tho people will know how much confidence to place in Mr. Smillie’s state ment, whon it is known, that, out of the throe hoar's examination, he speaks of, two hours were occupied by going to dinner. Three of the Machiucs entered did not have an opportunity to sew a single stitch in the presence of the com mittee. We might quote some of Mr. Smillie's own words, iu strong contrast with bis published statement, hut, believing tlist tho shove will be sufficient to show how poor a claim he bad for a premium, wc fori war further comment, unless ho wishes a more extended controversy.

Mr. A. W. Mitchell was called to the Chair, and Mr. Burgess Smith requested to set us Secretary. The Chairman stated that he under stood the object of the meeting was to determine open certain regulations for conducting the nominations to-day. Several motions were made looking to this, when the right of the candidates to interfere with the instructions of the Central Executive Committee was dis puffed. It soon became ovideut, without taking the sense of the body, that it was the prevailing feeling among all to leave the nomination to the discretion of the managers, who hud bceu instructed to receive votes from none others than avowed Democrats. It was suggested by Mr. James that no candidate should bring to the polls for nomination a negro voter. This sug gestion seemed to bo unanimously cn domed. Addresses and timely suggestions were luodo by CoL Glenn, Mr. James, CoL Halsey, Col. Spenecr and others, which received tho heartiest applause, and the mooting adjourned. Annonneements. rom mayor. Democratic Nomination foe Major. Blitors Sun: Who shall be our candi date is to be settled to-day. This is a Democratic nomination, and, all things being equal, we should, to-day, vote for a true and tried member of tho Demo cratic party. How shall we determine who is a true and tried member of the party ? Of comae, we must look to the past to judge. Then, have we a man that is every way oompotent that no oue doubts his fealty to our party ? If so, certainly he should he our choioe. We need a leading representative man of the party for our Mayor, as this is tho capi tal of the State and much is expected of us as a Democratic city.

The sight of his be nevolent) countenance, they said, would inspire them with new courage to press on in the glorious work of enriching the city, until they were prompted with the more powerful incentive of Ton and Costs.

We regret to learn that this client, in an unguarded moment, leaped over and lost $5,000 in the whirlpool be low. His Honor did not pursue. He is not one who jnmps into a maelstrom for the sake of the ride. Lowry came in smiling.
