BE LARGEST OF ITS RACE—OLD GOODRICH OVERDOES
The world will never, perhaps, as long as she daily
goes end over end, cease to produce marvels and
Early Goodrich potatoes,
[This is onr text ]
On yesterday, jnst after one of onr reporters had
returned from dinner, and was thoughtfully picking
the soup from his teeth, and thinking of the calamity
which the cholera has brought upon the people in
general, and on boarders in particular, by having the
usual racy and rich vegetable diet proscribed by scary
old doctors and nervous housekeepers, and longing
for the plaguey thing to quit the country so he could
get one more square meal before the season should be
over, in stepped Mr. J. R. Reynolds, of West End,
with a monster notato in his hand, the very appearance
of which wonld scare the cholera clean out of the
country.
To get about describing it perfectly is a difficult
thing. It is a combination of huge potatoes, which
old man Goodrich never dreamed of raising in his
palmiest market gardening days. It consists of one
monster mother potato to which are securely at
tached eight full grown athletic young men potatoes.
It is estimated that at this time it wonld appease the
hunger of every Irishman in the city, (if thsre are
any hungry ones here), feed all the boarders at the
National, satisfy the raging and enormous appetites
of the jolly, hearty customers of the Kimball, and
then be enough left over to mannfacture a sufficient
quantity of whisky to get them all on a high old drunk
after dinner. In fact, there is no telling the amount
of good this potato could be put to, if
placed in the hands of a competent board of domestic
economist. It is a fine potatoe. It is the finest pota
to* ever seen in this country, and we have deposited
an immense sum with John H. James to forfeit for the
benefit of the young men’s base ball club in case these
assertions are not true, and we defy a count. We have
heard of other big potatoes until we are tired of it.
Oor office is open for inspection to those who doubt
the truth of what we say. We have borne these things
as long as wc intend to. Now, come on with your
vegetables. We mean what we say. It is here to
speak for itself. We reckon it can do so—it speaks
load enough for Mr. Reynolds, for West End—for
Georgia, and for the whole of America. Ahem !
Nf.wmas’s City Code.—A copy of the new City
Code, recently revised by the assiduous and talented
City Attorney, Capt. W. T. Newman, has jnst been
laid on onr table.
It is much larger than its predecessors—containing
the acta of the Legislature, organizing the City Court,
and much other valuable matter in addition to what
was contained in the old Code.
Altogether, the work reflects credit upon tbe com
piler and the city printers, by whom the book is pub.
lished and bound.
Trains Resumed above Nashville.—During the
prevalence of the cholera in Nashville, the passenger
tr Aina on the 8t Lonia Division of the St. Louis and
South East road from above Nashville, were suspended
in consequence of an inability to procure bauds to
run them; bnt Mr. Albert B. Wrenn, tbe soutbeast
passenger agent, with headquarters in this city, re
ceived a dispatch from Super! n ten dan t Thomas, that
on and after Monday last the 7th inat., trains wonld
be resumed, which would give doable daily connec
tions between Nashville and Hickman, making direct
connections both ways for Memphis and St. Louis.
Seeved Him Right—On yesterday a young man of
onr acquaintance, was agreeably surprised at the re
ceipt of a package of elegant casaimeres, from the
Concord Woolen Mills, sufficient to transform bis
outward man from a seedy to a genteel appearance.
The goods thus kindly famished cannot be sur
passed by any manufactured anywhere, either in
durability or fineness of texture. These mills are
owned and operated by Messrs. Rice, Love 4 Co., all
of them being gentlemen of the first water. Theirs
being a home entei prise, and tbe products cf their
Mills being of a superior quality, they are entitled to
the heavy and increasing patronsge they are now re
ceiving.
Bettvals.—8t. Paul’s and Evan’s Churches, in this
city, (Methodist), are now enjoying seasons of spirit
ual refreshings from the Lord. The people are awak
ened, and many are returning unto God. At 8t. Paul’s
the good work baa been In progress for a week or
more, and the membership la greatly revived, and a
deep, serious feeling pervades the large congregations
that nightly assemble to hear the precious truths of
the Gospel set forth. Some fourteen have connected
themselves with this church by profession of faith,
and a number in excess of this have been converted
The influence of the good work Is spreading. At
Evan’s church the good work has been going on, and
tbe large number of penitents that nightly crowd the
altar evidence the moving of the spirit upon the hearts
of the people. At Edgewood e revival is ateo in pro.
gross, and the people of Ged are being comforted and
strengthened, and sinners being converted. May the
good work go on until it pervades the whole com.
mnnlty.

Got Left.
The maddest man in Atlanta yesterday, was a prom
inent lawyer, who had made all his arrangements to
go up the State Road on the six p. m. train, and got
to the railroad just in time to see it move off and leave
him. The worst feature of the mishap is that the
gentleman’s wife and baby are up the country and he
had not seen them for some titae. When he saw that
he would be compelled to lay over an extra day, his
wrath knew no bounds. Tbe first man he
saw was a lailroad employee, and he at
took him to belong to tbe State road. He poured ont
his vial of wrath upon tbe poor fellow, who failed to
see the point, and who proved to be one of the street
car hands. Ho next turned upon the little nigger who
had carried his valise down, and cursed him from an
ordinary black to a deep bine. This he got ashamed
of, and came back to the correr at the drug store.
Here he was met by an enquiriEg crowd, who began
“Hello! I thought you was gone?” This made him
rise higher and higher, and at one time It would
have been extremely hazardous for Joe Brown
any other State Road man to have come along. Then
the crowd lost their sympathies for the unfortunate
gentleman, and made it so warm for him that be
calmid down like a philosopher, and exhibited the
picture, “This Man Was Talked to Death.” This was
a gentle hint for the crowd to hash, and go down to
Kinny’s, where it was all forgotten in a mug of ex
cellent beer. We feel that when the attorney wakes
up this morning he will have become calmer and feel
like a new man.
Personal Intelligence.
Mr. J. T. Spence, a talented member of the Jones
boro bar, is in the city.
L. H. Davis, Esq., one ot onr citizens, has jnst re

will attend to the business of the office during his ab
sence.
Captain W. T. Newman, City Att orney, left last
night for Tennessee. W. D. Ellis, Esq., will act as
City Attorney daring his absence.
Mr. M. P. Camp is cow in the city, and having

affair, the pond being the central figure of attraction
Tbe party will leave for the lake about sundown and go

essary music, while dancing and promenading will add
Interest and zest to the occasion.

COMPLIMENTARY RECEPTION.—CoQCOrdia Hall WSS
abltze with beanty and chivalry last night until a late
hour. Onr fellow citizen, Mr. D. B. Loveman, whose
nuptials were celebrated in Baltimore a few days ago,
having returned to the city with his charming and ac
complished lady, the Concordia Association, of which
he has recently been elected Yice-Presidedt, gave the
newly married conple a handsome and brilliant recep
tion last night The welcome was indeed most hearty
and appropriate, and will be treasured up as
oasis to which all will refer in future years with
pleasure. The reception throughout passed off with
eclat. The attendance of ladies and gentlemen was
large, and the entertainment recherche.
Arrival of Water Works Engineer.—On yester
day Mr. A. Ketchnm, who has been employed by the
Water Works Commissioners to survey and make esti
mates of the cost of the works, arrived, and on yes
terday afternoon he and Commissioner Murphy took
bird’s eye view of the snrronndings. This is begin
ning to look business like; and now, as the matter has
aasnmed a business shape, we hope all in authority,
and out of it, too, will cease all bickerings and pash
this important enterprise to its earliest possible <
pletion.
Sad Bereavement.—We regret to learn that an in
fant child of Mr. Hugh Angler, son of Dr. N. L. An*
gier, died in Birmingham, Alabama, a few days since,
of the cholera. About two weeks sgo, Mr. Angler
moved to Birmingham for the purjoso of residing
permanently, and had been there but a short time
when the fatal disease robbed him of his idol. T<
parents in their sad affliction we extend sincere
dolence.
No Cholera at Catoofa.—Colonel Hewitt ot Ca
toosa Springs requests us to aay that the report which
put in circulation, that there was a case of cholera
at the Springs, is unqualifiedly false. There has not
been even a symptom of such a thine, and the place is
filling up rapidly with people f rom all parts of the
South.

The Atlanta Herald.
Announcement for 1873.
Established only in August o last year,
be Atlanta Heblld has, in five short months,
risen to the front rank of Georgia journalism,
and has obtained a circulation -which has not
any precedent in the history of Southern
newspapers.
When first issued, the proprietors declared
their purpose to make the Herald a bold,
outspoken paper, independent of all political
parties, cliques and rings and devoted solely
to the interests of the masses, without regard
to class or station. The condition of politi
cal parties in the South was such, that un
der no circumstances could the Herald give
its support to Radicalism; hence, it has in
variably advocated the election ot Democrats
to office, such advocacy being based npon the
capacity of candidates. The Herald, there
fore, has assumed the position of an inde
pendent Democratic newspaper, and will con
tinue to hold it, so long as the Democracy
remain tbe political party which serves tbe
people with more honesty and ability than
any other party in the State. Nevertheless,
the Herald will continue, in the future, as in
the past, to criticise men and measures,
without regard to political prejudices and
affiliations, condemning everything its pro
prietors believe injurious to the interests of
Georgia, and praising and supporting all
that they believe likely to promote the pros
perity ot the State and the happiness of her
people.
As a newspaper, the Herald is already ad
mitted to be without a rival in Georgia. Events
transpire with such rapidity that every per
son who desires to keep pace with the times,
must have a live daily or weekly paper. Our
columns will be found to give the very latest
news on every subject Whatever of inter
est occurs in any part of the world is made
known to our readers, and all the various top
ics of the day are discussed intelligently and
without bias.
Never before in the history of the world
was it more necessary for every person who
can read to subscribe for a newspaper. The
struggle between centralism and Constitu
tional Democratic Government is entering
upon a new phase. Gigantic railroad and
bond rings at the North control and direct
the legislation of Congress, and as their in
terest can only bo advanced by the existence
of a strong, centralized government, they are
passing laws, ono by one, whose ultimate de
sign is to reduce the States to the con
dition of mere provinces. Encroachments
more radical and startling than ever have
been made on the rights of the peopl.9 The
South has been converted into a second Ire
land; her governments overturned by the
mandate of a petty judge, backed by federal
bayonets ; her people plundered by foreign
adventurers and native scoundrels, and her
libeities crushed out with a ruthlessness which
has not any parallel save in Poland, Ireland,
and Hungary. To-day the men who struggled
through six years of bloody warfare, and the
children of the martyrs to the cause of South
ern Independence are political slaves, and
what their future is to be, remains shrouded
in impenetrable darkness. Meantime, the
terrible corruptions of the party in power, as
proven by the Credit Mobilier expositions,
implicating the outgoing and incoming Vice
Presidents, together with a large number of
the most prominent leaders of the Radicals,
are undermining the very foundation of Dem
ocratic institutions, .and paving the way for
empire.
While in the United States there is much
of mournful interest to attract the reader of
cotemporary history, abroad the drama is
equally exciting and important. France is
still kept unquiet by the violence of political
factions; in Great Britain the masses are
moving towards Democracy; in Germany the
Church question has assumed formidable
proportions; in Italy the situation increases
in interest, while in Spain there are evidences
that the revolution which placed Amadeus on
the throne is not yet ended. Everywhere, in
short, do we daily witness now and startling
occurrences, the regular and faithful record
of which makes the Herald a perfect history
of the world.
With a large corps of competent and ex
perienced editors, correspondents and repor
ters, and with arrangements concluded or
making for letters from all parts of the world
we can promise to the reading public a paper
which will, in every respect, satisfy their de
sires. Literature, science, the arts, will all
receive attention. Our agricultural, com
mercial and manufacturing interests will be
earnestly and steadfastly supported, and our
columns will always be kept open to poor and
rich alike.
