It is with no sma l pride that in call
ing attention to the advertisement of Hr.
A. T. Finney in this mo Ding's Sun,
we can point to hia establishment as the
largest of the kind in the oity and one of
the largest in the South. Since the days
when cur ancestors rode afoot .or walked
on horteback or in the old jostling cariy-
alls ol their day, Finney's name has been
connected with the improvements and
advancements which have marked the
carriage manufactory. Always at the
head of hie trade land ever
looking after its interests, he has
done as.mnoh, if not more, towarus the
oomfort and convenience ot those who
ride as any man living. Whether it is
bis cabriolet, or bis Dish jaunting oar,
hia beautiful pLceton, or the dashing
bugsjy, all alike bear evidence of bis su
perior skill and workmanship, ancf dis
play snob a degree of perfeotness ns can
not be exoelled. The variety and num
ber he has always on hand is only com
mensurate with the extent of bis trade.
The demand, though great, for bis manu
facture, is equalled by the number he
keeps ready to turn out. Two things of
beautiful taste, which now we only have
time to mention, are those doctor car
riages, which it seems he has jnstlfln-
ished in the nick ot time, in order to
please some one or more of our medioal
visitors, and consummate a sale of them
to take the plaoe of their old, rickety,
uncomfortable oonoerns whioh they have
had to use.

An Old Silver Medal:
On yesterday morning a colored man
oarried quite an old medal to Mr. W. T.
Harris, mitobiniat and engineer in the
Empire Steam Planing Mills, for the
purpose of having a hole drilled in it, to
be used as a toy for his child. Upon one
side of the medal is a palmetto tree and
a sheaf of wheat, surrounded by an arch,
in whioh is stamped in capital letters:
“ Agricultural Society of So. Ga. Found
ed Aug. 24, 1786.” Upon the other side
is stamped and engraved: “Charleston
Awarded to Oapt. G. 0. Geddes. For the
Best Heiter Calf. 1843."
This medal was found by the oolored
man in the streets of Augusta before the
war. It is about the size of a Spanish
silver dollar. Doubtless, Capt. Geddes,
if ltviug, would be glad to reclaim this
lost medal; if not living, perhaps mem
bers of his family would.

As the close of the term of this Court
diaws near, there isu marked diminution
in the trial of important eases. Yester-
duy the Court was in session, aside from
several orders taken, for the forfeiture
of bonds, and for nolle proeequiet entered
in a ease of Ephraim Baddrige. Bnt
two judgments were entered; one was by
confession on action of assnmsit brought
by James McGowan, surviving partner,
vs. J. W. Grier, Ordinary of Gilmore
ocunty, for $50 37 principal, and $24 80
interest. * Tne other case was Jona.han
Davis vs. Levi Bronson, on debt Judg
ment rendered in favor of defendant
under the Belief Law.
Those oases against the policemen of
Atlanta, and some citizens, who were
oh*rged with interfering with the elec
tion, are generally understood to be
abandoned.

A couple of vagabond negroeu stole
Henry Woods sister’s bench-leg dog, and
when Henry came home the entire f*m
ily held an indignation meeting and de
cided, first: That tho cur had “twined
where the wood binetb.” Second, and
last, that Henry most go in search and
bring him back at all uazirds. The
meeting no sooner adjourned than Henr
(who had an idev all the time), “lit” out
and soon came up with the rogues. He
demanded his sister’s dog, and opon a
refusal on the part ot the thievee to re
turn the property, he was just “ shucking
himself, * as he said, “to dean 'em oat’’
One of the darkies, .n particular, Henry
wanted to go for, and the Court asked
him how muen he thought ho ooold give
him. Henry replied that he proposed
to give one of them a belly full, and if
they both saw fit tc “jump him," he
thought he coaid “clean ’em both." The

Zaoh Thomas owed John Bobinson, a
blacksmith, fifty cents tor shoeing his
mule. John was in a pinch for money
and called ou ZaoK about sun up for his
bill. This so enraged Zaoh that he pealed
away within an axe, barely grazing the
os/rontis of John. This was enough.
Zaoh was arrested by a bailiff and also
brought before the Beoorder. A good
deal of cross-examining was done and a
great deal of false ditto. By an inge
nious and shrewd device, the Beoorder,
notwithstanding the voluminous and
contradictory testimony, was enabled to
tell just exactly how it all was. He tok
them that it was impossible for a negro
to fool him. He had been raised with
them from childhood, had drank water
with them from the branohes on his all
fonrs thousand times, had coon-banted
and fought with them and had studied
their peculiarities all his life, and at tnit
late date a nigger was tooling away bib
time when he tried “ to give him the
goose’’ And it is so. What our Be-
oorder can’t sift oat of a negro ain’t worth
sifting for. He cau come as near un
tangling a negro fnss as any man in the
world, and if he ever has made a serious
mistake in that business it has not come
under the observation of this reporter.
Well, all these things were well shaken
down, and notwithstanding a Daniel
Webster came up to the relief of Zaoh,
the Beoorder is a rght smart Daniel him
self, and told Zseh he would let him off
with ten and cost, and make (John dis
miss the warrant he had for him in the
State Coarts, whioh was about the best
thing that could have been done foi the

therefore had it written down on a piece

A Good Idea.—A lady on Peachtree
street suggested to Whidby. yesterdaj,
that the men ooghtto bo willing to mild
water works on the score of economy.
The extra amounts paid for new hats and
Sonnets which are daily ruined by don*,
would more than pay the interest ou a
sufficient quantity of bonds to boiJd the
much needed improvement.
Crop Prospects in Taliaferro.—We
learn that the planting prospect was
never better than it is in Taliaferro. The
weather is dry and warm. Corn is gen
erally in tho ground. A larger amount
of fertilizers are being used than ever
beiore. The fruit is uninjured. Very
little wheat wan sown.
Pryor Street, between the Kimball
Huuse and Republic Block, is at present
impassable. But in a day or two it will
have become an entitely new street The
workmen are busy macadamizing and
laying new crowing and enrbioga.
Sewers.—Atlanta needs a thorough
system of sewerage. Bad drainage,
many physicians believe, causes cerebro

be full of snggestivenees to city fathers.

Accidental Hhootino.—On Saturday
afternoon laetteo boye were outguuniug

of the moment, while trying 10 c<ck hia

Confer/.nr./ csmuiltt.. 'Water Work..
Yesterday afternoon a committee from
the City Council met the Water
Oommiaaiouers in conference, on the soo
jeot of eatablisning water works in the
city, and particularly in reference to the
proposition mads to Oonnoil by Heaars.
Burkhozerft Tittlebanm. The commis
sioners seemed to bo of the unanimous
opinion that the granting of the Iran
ohise of bnildiug water works to a pri
vate corporation wonld work disastrously
to the iuterests of the citizens and oaiue
the cost of this necessity to become too
onerous to be borne.
Messrs. A. Murphy, J. L. Dunning,
Dr. Robinson and Hr. 3. L. Ormond
make very pertinent speeches on the sub
ject, pointing ont various defects in the
proposition submitted by the gentlemen
spoken of above, comparing the cost of
water furnished for oity and private pur
poses with the costa whioh obtains in
other eities, showing thereby theee geo
tlemcn ask at least from twenty-five to
fifty per cent, more than the snms paid
in other cities where the franchise is in
tne hands of private corporations. All
were agreed in the belief that water
works had beoome a matter of extreme
necessity, and the longer it waa post
poned the greater wonld be their seed
and therefore urged as one objection, in
addition to the above, the length of time
before theee parties would, from their
present opportunities, be enabled to com
mence operations.
We feel pretty sure that if Steibel,
onr Cincinnati strest sprinkler, who
made an effort in this city, about a mouth
sinoe, to induce the people to.suhsoribe
to his proposition to keep down the dust,
had been here on yesterday, he wonld
have found the task a mnoh lighter one
than when be was knee deep in mnd,
We feel sure all wonld have taaen stock
liberally, provided he oonld have Sound
their places daring the immeuse clouds
of dust whioh careered through the
streets all day. It was almost imi oaai-
ble to go out, and the streets were com
paratively doll.
Personal.—Gen. 0. W. Field, who
will be recolleoted by many Georgians as
commander of a division in the Army oi
Northern Virginia during the war, is at
present in the oity and stopping at the
National. The General is here on bnei-
nees connected with the Life Association
of America, of whioh flourishing compa
ny he is the manager for this State.
Burglary.—About two o’clock night
be'ore last a burglar emptied the till of
the Tarf Exchange of what hud been
left in there the overnight It ia sup
posed that he secreted himself within
the house before elosing time. A po
liceman at that hour saw a man come
out (from a side entranoe, but supposed
at the time that he bod descended from
a stairway near by. Mr. Eimbro does
not know what elec vs stolen besides the
money. _

whioh will yet be largely added to. We
heartily wish the house great su-oess,
and solioit for them a liberal patronage.

Dr. Janet: Dear Sir- I write to tell
you of the progress your treatment ia
making in my niece. She is getting on
finely, and says her head feels oiearer
and better than she ever remembers to
have known it. Tbe disagreeable smell
has entirely left her noee. Her father

Remarkable and Great Cube of
Diabetes—(Sugar in the Urine)—Br
Dr. J. A. Jones.—For nearly three
years I was sick unto death with that
dreadful disease diabetes—sugar in tbe
nrine—during whreh time my sufferings
language oonld not desoribe. My disease
was oontraoted in September, 1870—
nearly three years ago— while in the em
ploy of Ool. Edmund Harriaon, In Mont
gomery, Ala., who knows of my case well.
I was treated by all the beet plfysicians
of tbe prinoipal Southern cities, and
nearly all of them gave up my case as
inourable, after treating me for weeks or
months, I also tried the mountain air
of Birmingham, Ala., and tried bitters
and all kinds of patent mediolnes. Noth
ing reached my disease, or tonobed the
■ oot of it, or changed my nrine, whioh
was white, and soon after being voided
in the aan crystalized into anger. I had
to get np every honr daring the night to
tdriuk and void water. Everything I ate
and drank turned into sngary nrine; and
thns, by onnoee, I was wasted and re
duced from a strong, healthy, stout man
of 17dponnds to a skeleton of 89 pounds.
Forty-eight hoars after I commenoed Dr.
Jonee' treatment, my nrine changed to a
natural color, with the natural odor, and
in a lew days my pains and ills left me,
I leel as well aa I ever did in my life;
have good, natural appetite, natural and
regular bowels, and am gaining my
former aotivity and strength daily, bnt
my teeth are loose and discolored from
tho bad effects of tbe memory, iron,
arsenic, eto., given me before I saw Dr.
Jones. I have not taken over an ounoe
of medicine from Dr. Jones, and it waa
pleasant to take, and be never ahanged
bis remedy, and he gave me but one
email bottle of that, but it went to the
very spot, and I and my wife both saw
that I was onred, and i telt and saw it
after the first twenty-fonr hoars' nse of
Dr. Jonee’ medioine. I feel that I owe
my life to the skill of this great physician,
for my shroud was prepared and at my
bedBide, and my disease was prononn.-ed
incurable bv so many physioians, some
of them stating that no person had ever
been eured of diabetes.

I know Hr. White; have known him
for matf> years, and can testify to the

—Dr. Janet—Dear Sir: When I flist
employed year (kill, I was indeed a suf
ferer with all th ‘ ills that follow the vio
lation of those laws of onr existence, tbe
abuse of whioh leave their terrible tale
too plainly told. My memory was im
paired, my body nearly rained; I had a
gone, langor feeling, nervous debility,
irregular sleep, startling and wasting
dreams, weakness of the back, floating
spots before tbe eyeA sometimes like
webs, forgetfulness, inability to ooncen-
tr>te my mind, awfal forebodings, desire
to avoid company, doll, heavy feeling.
I was wasting away and despondent. I
nave been neiug yonr wonderful reme
dies now two montbA and have regained
my former vitality and vigor; my mind
and body are improved—I am, indeed, a
new being, with nearly all my former
vigorous mind and body. I am now
able to pursue my ooonpstion, end feel
ibat I am a man again, and know how to
ehun, in tne future, that awfal secret
habit which would have ruined me,
bat foryour skill.

A Great Cube c f Rheumatism, Dys
pepsia, Disease on the Liver aed
Spleen, by Da Jo es.—I cams to Dr.
Jonee opon orotehea, having been afflic
ted four years with rheumatism and dis
ease of tire liver, tod enlarged spleen.
Having oeeo nested and given np by
onr beat doctors as a hopeless ease, and
was reduced to a suffering skeleton—^was
scarcely ab.e to move in my bed part of
the time. I had the dyspepsia, also, and
oonld not eat, sleep, nor walk, and of
fered intensely dsy and night. When I
wee placed upon the cars to go to Dr.
Jones, my neighbors said I oonld never
return Alve; bnt in three weeks I re
turned a sound man, and have attended
to boainesa ever since. And to Dr. Jones
I owe my life. I advise thesfllietedto
spend no time nor money with any other
treatment, if they are within reach of Dr
Jones. I live at Harioc, Perry oonnty

Dr. J. A. Janet:
Dear Sir—I wonld have written yon
sooner, but I wanted to know for oertain
whether your medicines were doing me
any good or not. Yon know when I
consulted with yen at Macon I was raf
tering with laryngitis, trsihetie, bron

My health has greatly improved, and all
those bad symptoms are disappearing.

ooontry will lay all prejudices aside and
avail themselves of your wonderful skill
in the ecieuoe of medioine. If yoo re
main in Atlanta nntil Hay, may be I will
have the pleasure of seeing von again.
