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.

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. Produce Market. Cohm—White 85; yellow 83; * Wheat—Red 1 900a C“ ~ m ‘‘ V«09 10.

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.

Bnt he onmeth for no ohiueth Heee gone where the woodbyne twlueth.*’ 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 Oonrt though* Henry looked strong enough to do it, and let him pay five dollars 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 Be. “Guano" Pemberton, as the Conrthad her down, wa9 a very bad, ugly negro girl.

AH this happened right in the Court room on tho previous morning’s session, but Jane proved by Mary Hayden that she never made any suoh remarks on thato.:- on, because she was sitting there souua asleep all the time of Coart.

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 apinal meningitis, a fact that ought to be full of snggestivenees to city fathers. Meat Markets.

One ot them descried a duck swim ming in the pond, when of the boys, named E lward Payne, in the excitement of the moment, while trying 10 c<ck hia gun, let the Lauiu.tr tali,., discharging the piece. Most of the load took effect in the thigh of' hia companion, whose name onr Reporter did not remember. The gen wa, 1-:adml with .mall bird .hot, though producing a very pain! ul wound, was not considered any way serious. 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. _ Meeting of Citizens—Atlantic and Great Western Canal.—Last night a very respectable number of leading oiti Zens assembled in the Reading Rsora of the Kimball House, for the purpose of making arrangements lor the assembling of Governors and others on the 20th of this month, to advance the interest of the proposed Atlantio and Great Weatern Canal. Ool. U. W. Adair presided over the meeting. The Governor of the State waa introduced and made a very pointed and earnest speech in favor of the great project. He gave an account of his pro ceedings in refewnoe to the matter, and urged every one to make earnest efforts to have the convention a grand affair, so as to make a favorable impression on tbe expected visitors.

Mr. Coker of the firm ia a brother of the President of tbe State National Bank. Hr. Laramore, the company, has an extensive acquaintance throughout Georgia and the Booth, due to a connection lor some time with a Baltimore house as traveling agent. The store ooenpied by the new firm is next to McNuught & Co.’s hardware es tablishment. We notioe it has already opened a large and handsome stock, whioh will yet be largely added to. We heartily wish the house great su-oess, and solioit for them a liberal patronage. Two Paras of Rascals. — The police arrested y esterday two white women and two negro men, acoused of open lewdnees and disorderly conduct. Soon after their incarceration in the Station House, a warrant for each was taken out, and the quartette carried before Justioe Monday, who committed them to jail to await the aotion of the Grand Jury. Neither of them denied the orime of whioh they were accused. No changes were quotable In our mar kets yesterday, * Attention, Merchants !—For Tnes- d-iy next, 15th inst., T. 0.

Owens, of the National, being rather a short man, and near sighted besides always up to bis eyebrows in bus iness, has employed Hr. dam Andrews to overlook his business. He’s got tbe very man for the work. Besides being every way competent, he aan stand flat- tooted aud look through tbe trunsome lights of the front door. The ohief attraotion at tbe Kimball last night, aside from the pretty girls, was the sweet muaio by the string band, whioh waa discoursed until ten o’olook. Postponed.—From dispatches received yesterday, we learn that, the drawing of the great Kentucky Library Asaociatiun Lottery, whioh was to have taken place yesterday, was postponed antil the 3th of July. Considerable dissatisfaction was expressed by the holders of tickets in this aity on the reaeption of the news. False Alarm.—Tbe alarm of fire given last evening, abont 8( o’clock, proved to be withont good cause. Tbe eteamers aud firemen all hastened some distance up Peaohtrec, Dut soon returned, as no fire oould be found.

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. R. W. White, Haoon, Ga I know Hr. White; have known him for matf> years, and can testify to the truth of tne aoove remaraabie cure Dy Dr. J. A. Jonee. E. E. Brown, Proprietor Brown's Hotel, Haoon, Ga Nervous Debility, Lobs of Vital Fluid, Seminal Weakness, eto., Cubed. —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. I sm, yonr friend, Joseph W. Joslyn. Hy address for the next year will be Yale College. An Aoed Han, Totally Blind fob Twelve Years, Restored to Sight by Da Jones.—Ai/retviUe, Putnam county, Mo.-Dr. Jonee—Dear Sir: This is to oertify that you operated on the eyee of Jacob Oarriott (my fatber-in-law) for cataract, with complete eucoees. From total blindness he can see to pick np a pin on the ground, and oan see every thing with tolerable accuracy. Jaoob Garbiott, aged 66, Da T. L. Martin. Judge Speer of Grifflu says: “ Dr. Jonea operated upon my eon and daughter for two hundred and fifty dol- lan, but I would not take five thousand dollars for tbe good he has done them. Hr. P. J. Howard, a well known plan ter of Calaparchie, Ga, writaa: Dr. Jonaa: Sir.—I have been under your treatment for several difficult chronic diseases, and the benefit derived ia worth mnoh more than the money paid.

Smith oi the Geneva Norrery, Geneva, Ga, writes: Dr. Jones, yonr treatment by inhalation has saved the life of my daughter. We cannot speak too highly of it: it goes to the spot and is pleasant. 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 Alabama. B. H. Weak Geneva, Ga, March 29,1873; 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 chitis, perioarditis and functional de rangement of the liver and rhemnotiam and asthmA I have taken yonr medioine four weeks. My health has greatly improved, and all those bad symptoms are disappearing. I hope the afflicted people of this 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. I hope I shall never lose sight of tonr whereabouts. I am, very respectfully, yonr friend, Da B. Bunas.
