John Jones, Esq.. Theamcssk, Atlanta, Ga. m
Dear Sib:
The Board of Directors of the State National Bank,
having an abiding faith in the Integrity and ability of
the Representatives of the State of Georgia, and feel
ing an earnest desire to protect the interest and credit
of the State, have directed me to extend our mite by
HUbecribing for twenty-five thousand dollars of the
new bonds of the State now on the market.
Very reapectfnlly yours,
Jakes M. Ball,
President.
Culled States Commissioner’* Court,
COMMISSIONER, W. B. SMITH.
nis Honor W. B. Smith was busily engaged yester
day in the investigation of cases of the United States
against several parties charged with violating the rev
enue laws by illicit distilling. John Bussell, John
Evans and Isaac Haynes, charged with carrying on the
business of distilling without paying the special tax
required by law, were required, after bearing the evi
dence adduced, to give bond each in the sum of five
hundred dollars for their appearance at the next teim
of the United States Court, then and there to abide
their final trial for the offense alleged against them.
They were all from Gilmer county, and were repre
sented in au able manner by Colonel Phillips*
of Marietta. Judge Smith very properly often
admonishes parties who are brought before
him''to desist from the practice of distilling contrary
to the law, reminding them of the inconvenience of
lo doing.
Justices* Courts.
The magistrates were generally reclining on the dig
nity of their positions during the day yesterday, not
being troubled with anything outside of civil buai-
neea, such ae possessory and distress warrants.
Judge Monday was the only magistrate among the
honored list who could introduce this reporter to
scenes of ter or and festivity. It is ever thus that
soma of them come to our rescue.
Lucinda Wooten, a woman of color, was so unfortu
nate as to be arraigned before this last named gentle-
on the charge of assault and battery, alleged
have been committed by her upon
person of one Minerva Wilson, a
female equally as deeply colored as herself, on the
13th instant, on the very eve of the assembling of the
Governors' Convention. Think you Strangs that she
should have been called upon to answer such an al
leged gross violation of propriety, because of the
peculiar circumstances that ;snrroundel her in com
mon with others ? The prosecutrix came into court,
and like all sensible people, employed an attorney.
Col. Thompson, to assist her in her efforts against
the defendant. She than, together with several oth
ers, proceeded to testify powerfully against
suspected disturber of the public tran
quility and equanimity, but when the evidence
e other side was introduced, a.And the
arguments of counsel made, the warrant was with
drawn at the instance of the prosecution, and the cost
of the prosecutrix. Jeesee Thrasher represented the
defense.

The mammoth excursion from klaxon to Slone

A Successful Festival.
Wc are informed by Reverend Frank Quarles that
the strawberry festival given at Friendship Church
Monday evening last, for defraying the expenses of the
Church, was well attended, and that the proceeds from
the same amounted to $121.05. We are glad to note
this evidence of liberality on the part of t l »e colored
people in a commendable enterprise.
GRAND PICNIC EXCURSION
From Atlanta to Newnan-
Saturday Next, the Time.
RECORDER
. F. HAMMOND.
Owing doubtless to the superior attractions cf the
Canal Convention, the reception of the Recorder was
net so well attended on yesterday morning as on
many former occasions—in fact, but two delinquents
had been summoned to the bar of justice, and they
came promptly and sainted the presiding J udge when an
interview was proposed by each of them, which result
ed in the Recorder’s getting mad, we suppose, as his
future conduct was peculiar for that ot say man ex
cept a judicial officer.
J. W. Stockton, charged with being disorderly,
quarreling and using profane language, was pro
nounced guilty and fined ten dollars and coats.
A. Zachary plead guilty to being drunk on
streets, and was required to leave five dollars and
costs &s a security for future good behavior.

which Captain Doolittle was the conductor, due at this
city half an hour before one o’clock yesterday morn

until sight o’clock in the afternoon, when
few miles above Graysviile, and while running at the
rate of fifteen miles per hour, was run into by an
press through freight. The freight was ahead of
schedule time, being at 6:13 p. m. three miles above
Graysviile, when it was only due at the latter place at
6:25 p. M. The two trains should have met and passed
at Grayaville. Previous to being struck the air breaks
had been placed on the passenger train, and it was
almost, if not entirely, stopped when the collision
occurred. The freight, on the contrary, waa running
rapidly. The engines ot each were greatly injured,
but fortunately no person waa hurt, and the boxes of
the cars were not damaged to any considerable extent.

water communication, and by reason of tbe monopo
lies existing in the management of railroads, and
praying Congress to grant such aid and encourage
ment to the Atlantic and Great Western Canal, the
James River Canal, and the Niagara Ship Canal,
they might deem best. (The Atlantic and Great West-
aimply asks Government endorsement, to secure

Address of Governor Hendrick*.
At nine o’clock last night at the Kimball House,
Governor Thomas A. Hendricks, of Indiana, in re
sponse to an invitation from a committee from the
Convention, appeared at the base of the main stair
way and made an eminently practical and pertinent
address. He expressed himself as in fall sympathy
with the movement looking to the construction of a
canal to connect the MiMissippi and its tributaries with
the Atlantic, and gave many cogent reasons showing the
importance and utility of each an enterprise. Stated
that two days on the road from Indiana to Georgia re
minded him of tho great distance which he had
traveled, but that the presence of people speaking
the same language, and obeying the same Conatitu"
tion and laws, seemed to annihilate this distance, and
impressed him with the conviction that he wm among
his countrymen and friends*and that he pMsed on
this occasion none of the feelings of a stranger (•
voice: " You are no stranger to Georgians ”); that it
would be a mutual benefit to the Western farmer who
could find ready sale for his abundant produce, corn,
wheat, bacon, etc., and to the Southern planter, who,
being able to obtain his supplies at a low price, could
avail themselves to a greater extent of tbe profits and
productions of the rich cotton fields, for which they
could find ready sale iu Europe, [and the price
gold; that a resumption of specie payments could
only be effected when our exports exceed
in value our imports. That this would bring gold to
the United States, whereas now it is concentrating in
the old world. That this connection of the two
tlons is suggested by nature; and that It wm
soundest principles and policy to avail ourselves of
its facilities; and that whether the hopes of Gov.
Smith and others who have wisely inaugurated
investigation of the great project are real
ized as to the precise method of construction
the line of the route, the essential work will
be accomplished. [Applause.] I would see yoq Geor
gians make two bales of cotton where you now make
only one, lor the reason that it not only benefits you
but also the whole North, East and West, which Is
common country, sp aklng one language and
having a common interest in the success of each, and
a common destiny, by bringing gold and wealth into
the country. [Great applause.] This enterprise
will unite us peimanently—cause ua to feel
an interest iu each other, and forever
make us in fact, what we are now
lu language—one people. It ia needless to state that
the remarks of this truly distinguished, eminent, and
representative Western man, were listened to with
marked attention, for all recognize that in him the
canal project haa an eernest and powerful friend.
He ia one of the nobleat specimens of manhood, tall,
graceful, and of easy and agreeable address, and pos
sesses a countenance indicating and beaming with
frankness and honesty. Though apparently not more
than forty-five years of age, he is perhaps
the most prominent man in all the great West, and
his prospects for reaching the Presidency of the
United States are none of the worst. Long may he
live to serve his State and country, m efficiently in
the future as ho hu already done iu the past
poa* of carrying ou, aidfctff or assisting in any pursuit
or btwinaai not connected with the prase, be expelled
from this atsocUtifta.

Most Important of All.—It may lie liue
that the Convention of Governors in session
here to-day may find the Great Western Canal
of high importance, but by far the most im
portant doty devolving upon them during
their stay in Atlanta is the providing of
themselves with one
OF Holbrook's hats,
and the parch using of some of Holbrook'i
matchless Millinery. Their constituents will
find that they have not made their trip in
vain if they return ornamented with one of
these unapproachable hats, and their wives
will certainly feel that it has been a success
if they return laden with dainty beauties
from Holbrook's millinery rooms.
Every style of hat or cap that human in
genuity has invented may be found at this
emporium, and millinery and straw goods in
fall stock and assortment.

Dear Sir—In reply to yonr inquiry, I would
state that my opinion of PETERS' EUREKA
TANNING PEOCF.SS may be inferred from
tha tact that I am now wearing a pair of
boots, the leather of which was tanned by
that process before the same was perfected
and a patent obtained: that the aaid boots
have now been in wear for the period of three
yeare—are the most pliable and easy to the
feet of any boot I ever wore, and are iu a
good state of preservation yet.
