Wo are informed, (and suppose it ia true),'that Ospti Blodgett and his friends and confederates are making a despe rate effort to break down investigation into bis Htute Bond management, by in dustrioualy making suggestions to the prejudice, of Maj. Hargrove and Msj. McCalls. These two gentlemen are entitled to the credit of beginning the work of ex posure. They have already prooured the restoration of a considerable amount of money and property, and know more about bow to proceed to recover the iq>- sunas which can yet be saved, and oonvict those who are guilty, than any others Ah effort is bein g made to prejudice the Democratic members of the Legisla ture against them, on the ground that McCalla is a Republican in politics, and an employee of) the road while the ptanderlag was going on; and against Hargrove, beoause be has given some ob jectionable testimony before the Ku-klux Committee. McCalls was dispossessed Of the books of the road by Blodgett to stop any further discoveries and exposures by him; and the great object is to keep him from ever having any further control of those books, or giving any assistance in the investigations. A tremendous effort has been made, but nothing has yet been produced to Impeach his integrity; and the same is true of Maj. Hargrove. They have both given their time and expended their own money; and now, Capti Blod gett hopes to induce(the Legislature to ig nore them, leave them without the means of continuing the prosecutions com menced, and thereby preventing invet- ligation, till he san secure a seat in the United States Senate. This is the pro- gramifco. ( v JUT. C. Morris, Bs«. Mr. Morris is ono of the men who has demonstrated his business qualifications by success. He came to this city in 1867, as the Local Agent of the Southern Life Iasamnoe Company, of Memphis. Soon he organised a branch office of the com pony in this city, of which Oen. Gordon was made President. The company bos prospered, as but few companies ever did, and furnishes evi dence of being built on as sound a basis, and having os solid prosperity, ss any] company in the United States. It is, in a groat degree, through the business qual ifications and real capacity of Mr. Morris that this result has been attained. He has devoted himself most assiduously to the work, looking constantly to the per- ianaent soundness of the company,“and thb security of those who have insured in it, and has achieved success. Gen. Gordon and.Gen. Colquitt, with the Di rectors—Col. Yanoey, Gen. Austell, and others—have given very material aid in the general plans,of the company, and in giving it public confidence; but tho de tails—the proper systematizing of the real business—have, in a great mousure, devolved on Mr. Morris; aud for much of their succo8s,'the company is indebted to him.

The officer raised the alarm, at the same time firing st the fugitive, who wee recaptured. Some persons who witnessed the affair, blame the officer for firing in the street; we know not, however, to what extent, if any, he should be blamed.

Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 11, 1871. 7b the Editorz of the Daily Sun : Gen tlemen—Being one of the parties against whom the public are cautioned in your article headed “ Fire-Proof Safes," I claim the right to enter a short reply. You are unquestionably correct in your advice lo persons wishing to purchase safes, to wait until it shall be fairly proved which is the best. Over eighty Salt* foiled iu the great Fire iu Port land, Maine, some years ago, and five or six in a firo in Augusta, aud yet onr peo ple continue to purchase the same kind of safes, merely because some few saved what was consigned to them, giving their manufacturers an opportunity to show them, and obtain certificates that they withstood the fire. It ia probable that more than one thousand business safes were in the Chi cago fire, and it ia confidently believed that more than three-fourths of them ut terly failed, aud still, any manufacturer who had five or six hundred in the fire, (and some of them had that number) and lost fonr out of five, will be able to show more than one hundred certificates, with which an unscrupulous agent can induce the uninitiated to believe, that his safes aro perfectly “ Fire-Proof," and ia that way hundreds of them are sold in the Sonth, and the money of our peo ple ia carried North by the hundreds of thousands, while they are left to trust in a broken reed, for the safes are as sure to fail in the hour of need ss those before them have done. The people now have a right to know on what they can place reliance, and the Board of Trade, in Chioago, ought to make, and publish, s correct report of all aafea whioh were in the fire, and our people may well afford to wait for infor mation. I represent the American Steam Fire- Proof Safe Company, Sanborn'a Patent, but I hare no interact in it whatever, ex cept as salesman. I took it np previous to the great fire, because I believed that it was constructed upon scientific principles, and I now be- lievo that, unless God has changed the law regarding the effects of fire upon water, that it must be superior to any other. Steam camee off the beat as fata as it enters the safe, and must continue to do so se long as the Are lasts, unless the water becomes exhausted, and we know that we put in ureter enough to last through any fire, aa well es we know that we make chairs strong enough to beer our weight I am perfectly honest in my convic tions in regard to the superiority of this kind of safe over ell others, although I am fully aware that various materials are put into other safes, which are said to give out water when heet is applied, but I know of nothing which gives so much water in the same space, aa water itself, and hence Sanborn came to that at ones. Heat will penetrate anything, and ev erything, and no safe can be made that will always continue to resist its action, bnt we aay that by providing water in sufficient quantities to moke steam to fly off with this heat through the joints store the door, ire give rime enough to allow the fire to barn down and go ont, before any damage can occur inside the safe, and our public tests in different cities have proved this to be true. Now, if lam mistaken in regard to the fire-proof qualities of this safe, then in God's name let it go down, and let the oompany break np, who, by continuing its manufacture, are working an injury to tho pnblie, as well as to myself. But, give us a hearing, and let ns see who is right in tho matter. Let purchasers wait until their reason shall be convinoed, and not be fooled by certificates and un- trathfnl assertions, that any kind of safe stood the Chicago fire, or any other large fire, where many of them were exposed. I am willing to abide the result of rea son, common sense end experience, gui ded by the most searching scientific in vestigation, and if I fail, then my reason is at fault, and not my desire to do right Very respectfully, yonr obedient servant, Gio. W. Monsx, of Greenville, S. C., General Agent American Steam Safe Company. novl2 BHCHAHTMEST OUTDONE. Canning Devices In Otai asd Fins Gold The Fnblcd Ornadsar of tbs East Sar- A Hsmbls A at sag Ilabtss sad Diamonds In a conspicuous place, in the Fine Art Exhibition Hall, at Oglethorpe Park, could be seen, dnring the Annual Fair, which has just closed, the magnificent display of Watches, Jewelry, Diamonds, Bronze Goods, and SilverWare, enteied by Messrs. Sharp A Floyd, of this city. After s careful survey of these glitter ing gems and curiosities of genius, we naturally ask ourselves whst next will the skilful hand of the artist devise to com pel the admiration of the thousands of “ sight seekers ?" No branch of art demands such nicety of workmanship, and such care in its adjustments as the Watch, unless, perhaps, we consider the labors of tho Optician, and with both there must be exercised the greatest me- obanical skill, inseparably ,-onnected with Mathematical Science. To the already intricate mechanism of the ordinary Watch are added many singular contri vances, which not only multiply the use fulness of the time-keeper, bnt present manifold noveltips of skill. The display made by Messrs. Sharp A Floyd has, we venture, never been sur passed in this country; and we not only refer to the costliness of the articles but the taste in arrangement displayed and the varied styles of manufacture. The large, elegant show cases, filled with Diamonds, Watches and Jewelry, attracted admiring throngs during the entire period of exhibition and they wearied not in their examinations of pro ducts from all quarters of the globe.— Messrs. Sharp & Floyd, as is well known, are sole agents for a number of celebra ted European Watch Manufactories, among which, are Messrs. Jules Jergen- sen, E. Perregeaux and Nardin. These Watches are made to order especially for this market aud aro wonders of art and beauty. In the vast collection of time keepers, we mention a lady’s watch, said to to the finest in the world. The value of thia time-piece is two thousand dol lars. Tho back of it ia profusely laid in Diamonds, Emeralds and Hubies, the whole settiug representing,a gorgeous butterfly. From ti e smallest plain gold ring to the most elaborate Diamond Necklace, there existed the most wonderful taste, being combinations of strength with novelty. A grander display never flashed before longing eyes of dame and maid, and the sterner sex by no means failed to loudly testify their delight. As if by magic, tho beholder, forgetting the mate rial world around, found himaelf conveyed to the “val'ey of precious stones," which, alas, in the practinal age, exists only in fable ornaments of Roman, Etruscan and plain gold, consisting of Watch Chains, Loekets, Bracelets, Shirt and SlceTe Buttons, formed an intoreating part of the display. In many instances the dif ferent shades of gold were blended in a locket or necklace producing an effect both novel and unique; all of which con veya to the thinking one that a vast amount of ingenuity is required to reach such happy designs, while the artist must possess both patience and skill. The Solid Silver Ware, and among it the Society's premium, alone formed an important feature ot the displays. Each succeeding season demands new styles in Silver Were jut is in other articles of Merchandise, and Messrs. Sharp A Floyd, keeping apace with fashion and the de mands of the people, have not noglected to order the very beet material made into the latest style; e due regard being paid to the naeful end ornate. From the delicate tracing on a Napkin Bing to the heavy scroll work of the mammoth fam ily waiter, there is nothing wanting.— There exists in all departments a refined taste, both as regards finish and utility. Their Clocks, bronze and briocrhroc, fashioned by the artists of the old world, attracted eoorae of lovers of the unique, and the escaped expressions of delight testified strongly their appreciation. The Committee whioh selected Messrs. Sharp A Floyd's exhibition of Diamonds, Watches, Silver Ware, Jewelry end Bronze Goods, as the most voluble dis play did ample justice to their apprecia tion, both u regards brilliancy'of aahl. bjtion and financial Vhlue. With an affa bility and courtesy, happily joined with greet patience, these gentlemen, Messrs. Sharp A Floyd, answered the thousands of questions propounded them hourly, as how, when, and where such wonders came from, and last, tot not least among the interrogations, what do they cost ?— Barely doing justice to tho really gor geous exposition of gems of art and ie.iy sake for ence, we cast this feeble effort npon the charity of Messrs. Sharp A Floyd, know ing full well, that they will separate the errors of the head from the good inten tions of the heart of Thu Authob. Hdr Tallulah S. F.
