It is said that she was beaten by a man (whose
name 1 will not for the present give) In Heard county,
from the effect of which she died. The Coroner's
jury rendered a verdict to the effect that he was in
strumental in her death. He was brought before
Judge Buchanan for commitment and trial, and for
want of prosecution was discharged. Judge Buchanan,
however, expressed his willingness to examine
witnesses, and to do it rigidly end
to the best of his ability if any one would appear as
prosecutor. I would give you all the particulars con
cerning this case but as it will, in all probability,
come befor the Grand Jury of Heard county at the
next term of court I will not write more.
THE KILLING LAST NIGHT.
About dark yesterday evening a Mr. Cress Combs,and
two negroes were going out of town on an ox wagon,
when a dispute arose between Mr. Combs (who was
under the icflocnce of liquor) and a negro named
Manson Newton, whereupon Combs drew a pocket
knife and stabbed the negro in the left breast, the
knife entering the heart. Tee negro lived but a few
minutes. Mr. Hackney, the City Marshall, was near

WESTERN RAILROAD.
la the letter of Colonel L. P. Grant on the Western
Railroad, published in Sunday’s Herald, the printers
mads several important errors. The estimate of the
cost of the road is given at 133,000 per mile; it should
read $23,000 per mile—a vast difference. The rate of
city tax is printed one-third per cent; it should be one
and onc-third per cent. Freightage on coal is printed
ten cents per ton; It should read two dollars and ten
cents per ton. And to sum up the list of errors, ccking
is printed cooking—all which shows that the “proof"
of the letter was not read by copy as it should have
been.
Lectures by the Catholic Bishop of Georgia.
We understand that the Right Rev. M. Gross, Bishop
of the Catholic Church for the Diocese of Georgia,
will reach this city sometime this week, and will give
a senes of lectures on the Catholic religion. The
Bishop is now making an extended trip through his
diocese, and has delivered lectures at Americas, Al
bany, Milledgeville and other points, establishing
churches, and in other ways ministering to the spir
itual needs of his co-religionists. Bishop Gross is
highly spoken of ss a fine orator and a gentleman of
most agreeable appearance. His lectures elsewhere
have attracted large crowds, including many persons
not Catholic, and their grand tone has given satisfac
tion to all who have had the pleasure of listening to
them. We presume that the Bishop will lecture in
the Catholic Chnrch in this city ; but
learned on what evenings.

New Music.—We find upon our table a piece of new
music entitled “Love's First Dream," song and words
by Charles Huboer, and music by A. B. Knapp. Both
these gentlemen are citizens of Atlanta, Mr. Hubner
being well known in literary circles as a poet and
writer of considerable distinction, and Mr. Knapp as
oue of the flu st musicians in the South. He is the
principal moving spirit in the Mozart Musical Club,
of th.s city, and a gentle nau of tare musical attain
ments. M”. Huoner has written some very sweet
verses, and “Love's Yourg Dream” is reckoned
a nong his happiest strains.
“Ou bright may U- the dream that swing
Tb«*ir plumes around the heights of fame ;
And sweet may be tlie dreams that bring
'the days of childhood back a.aiu;
Bu- on th** soul with brighter rajs.
Lovers morning t»un** of gi<<ry beam.
And in the ’wiltghi of your days.
How sweet tue stars of love's first dream.”
The song has been sung with gr< at eclat by the
Mozart, and is fast gaming pubLc favor. Published

Atlanta is the distributing point for six of the lead
ing Sewing Machine con panics, whose total sales from
June, 1872, to June, 1873, foot up the sum of $600,000.
The following is a fair statement of the business, and
cost of doing it:
7,500 Machines were told at an average price
of $80 $C00,000
Expenses of six cffices, exclusive of tales
men $77,000
Average discounts for commission and sala
ries. 35 per cent $210 000
Lessee on accounts, horses and accidents, 5
per cent $30,000
Depreciation of value in wagons $5,500-222,500
This presents the carious feature of costing more to
sell goods than to buy. In looking over these items it
is gratifying to know that so large a proportion of the
proceeds of this business has been spent in our midst
and the following statistics will show where the money
goes to:
The rental of the six offices located here is $6,050.
The salaries of six managers, nine book-keepers, four
teen adjusters and shipping clerks, four travelers, ten
lady instructors, and four collectors—in all forty-seven
persons, at an average salary of $900 per annum, who
do not sol', but whose services are necessary to conduct
the business; add to this freight, insurance, advertising,
horae keep, porters, draymen, gas, fuel and furniture,
and the item of expenses for non-producive services
will foot up $.70,350.
The next item is composed of salaries of 13
salesmen in the city, with average pay of
$1.0o0 per annum ; about 125 canvasters,
with wagons in country; 27 agents located
at various points, who in turn employ not
less than 175 sub-agents besides instruc
tors, in all abcut 340 persons, directly and
exclusively engaged in this business,whose
average earnings are $617 65 $210,000
Losses on account to accidents, Ac., average 50
per cent upon the whole amount, $600,000. 30,000
Note.—This item speaks well for the honor of Geor
gia. The experience of old business men is 7@10 per
cent upon book accounts, without counting accidents.
The last item consists of wear and tear in wagons
and outfit, and is based npon an actual record,

and the cost of keeping the same in repair

value of the wagons at the expiration of

$27,500, and every year would be $ 5,500

To the Editors of the Herald:
Tho commencement exercises of Emory College
were inaugurated yesterday by an able and powerful
sermon by Rev. Dr. Hicks. The attendance was large
and attractive, aDd the sermon one of the reverend
gentleman's ablest of his life.
To-dsy the exercises opened with prayer by Dr. Key,
cf Colnmbus. There is in attendance a splendid brass
band, which adds much to the entertainment of the
occasion.
The first speaker was
D. Q. ABBOTT, COLUMBUS, GA.
His extract from Pollock was well delivered. With
perfect composure be talked like the bard himself,
contemplating the character of Byron. His voice
was finely modulated, and his gestures easy and grace
ful. He is first in bis class.
W. A. CANDLER, VILLA RICA. GA.
With an impressive manner tho young orator de
claimed against the evils of party Rpirlt. The audience
complimented him with strict attention.
C. C, CODY, COVINOTON, GA.
This young man is second in his class, evidently a
popular man with the ladies. A shower of bouquets
come down at the close of his speech.
T. W. HARRIS, CARTERSVILLE, GA.
Ah! there’s the college pet. I war
me he has attention. The litte girls
look at him askance. He has taken an excerpt from
Prentiss ou the death of LaFayettc, and has done his
piece well.
R. H. Jones, Oxford, Ga., well portrays “what makes
the hero." But this crowd is becoming garrulous and
will not listen. I wish he would enter a philippic
against talkativism.
W H. McMillan,Clarksville,Ga.—Isn't He Handsome
the Woman Say. Us ia expected to get> prize. But I
don’t know. I see the sweat on his brow. You may
know he is doing his best, Didn’t he pick up that
bouquet gracefully ? and the kiss he threw back, some
fair one canght itl
J. O. Ponder, Forsyth, Ga.—Liberty and Revolution.
Another prize man. Speaks well—five voice—good
emphasis. Dr. Smith wants this crowd to keep quiet;
he’ll say so directly.
Jaa. A. Stafford, Covington, Ga.—Then and Now. I
should say he was a “ straight out.’’
J. A. Wright, Oxford, Ga. Hope—What makes at
man part his hair in the middle? It does not make
me wish I was a woman. But this boy spoke well.
He had a fine conception of his subject.
AUDIENCE TO-DAY.
Of course it was brilliant. Reporters are expected
to say so at any rate. Gen. A. H. Colquitt and £. E.
Rawjon, of your city, were on the stage. Howard
Van Epps, another gifted representative of Atlanta, is
present with his lady, nee Miss Minnie Thornes, the
ex-belle of Athens.
THE BELLES.
They came from every direction—Miss Ida Frazer'
of Columbus; Mi6s Emmie Jorden, of Monticelio;
Miss Maggie Myers, of Macon. These three young
ladies have just graduated with high honors at Macon.
Misses Annie Mays, Augusta; Miss Sallie Lucas,
Athens. Don’t the fellows watch them! Miss Annie
Pierce, Sparta; Miss Minnie Jackson and Mamie Lou
Taylor, Macon’s charm mg maidens. Miss Leyden*
with her sweet face aDd bright eye is down from your
city: and others too numerous to mention.
We have the promise of a fine debate this evening.

Total expenses $322,500
Ninety per cent of above wagons were built in At
lanta. This ia Atlanta business alone, and speaks well
for the city as a distributing point, far outstripping
Macon, Augusta and Savannah, who no doubt could
show a large business in this important and progres
sive branch of industry. What the manufacturers
make will be the subject of an article in our next issue.

Trnptrasrt Meeting.
There was a public meeting of O’Donnelly Lodge of
Cold Water Templars held st Evans’ Chapel Church,
at 4 o’clock last Sunday evening. The attendance of
members and friends of the order, consisting mainly
of young people, was large, and the exercises pleasant
aad entertaining.
Under the head of “Good of the Order," Col. H. K,
Shackleford, who was present, spread himself on a
tempo ance speech of about half an hour in length.
It was graced with rhetorical beauty and logical dic
tion. During his remarks Mr. Shackleford took occa
sion to deal severely, and with “gloves off," towards
those ministers and professors of religion who de
nounce the temperance organization as a ’ humbug"
—he manifested his indignation by styling such
“hypocrites.’’ H’s speech was listcued to with mark
ed attention. Our associate, Mr. J. A. Andeiaon of tbe
Herald, was also called for and responded in some
appropriate remarks. Being endowed with high intel
lectual powers (he measures six feet four inches in his
stockings) he soared mors than the length of an ax
handle above his hearers who sat in ailent but awful
suspense awaiting his movements and demonstrations.
He Is young but ws will bet twenty-five cents that he
e n lit at bis table and brush the cobwebs from the ceil
ing with the tips of his ears. Tbe beet of order pre
vailed throughout and the officers and members ac
quitted themeelvjs handsomely, it *a« pleasant to
be there. The Lodge is in a flourishing condition
recoiling occasion* at every mcetinj.
Sunday Sermons in Atlanta.
The day being pleasent, the various places of wor
ship in tne city were well attended on Sunday last,
and the sermons were generally able, earnest and im
pressive, and the interest manifiested by the hearers
most gratifying. At several of the churches revivals
are in progress, and the altars constantly crowded
with anxious penitents inquiring the wav of life.
At eleven o’clock in the morning Rev. Dennis F.
Hammond preached to a crowded house at Evan’s
Chapel from the latter clause of the thirty-third verse,
of the sixteenth chapter of John: “I have over
come the world." This exposition of and practical
application to the congregation occupied about one
hour, and was a powerful and impressive one. He
introduced some eminently proper ideas in relation to
the duty and obligation iwliich Christians, members
of the same or different denominations owe
to each other. This discourse evidenced deep thought
and research, and he has certainly studied the Bible
to great effect. In tbe pulpit he poesesaea that same
eloquence that has given him reputation at the Bar
and on the Bench. In the evening, at the same church,
Rev. C. J. Oliver officiated, preaching from the follow
ing scripture, found in the eleventh chapter of
Mathew, and three last verses: “ Come unto me all
ye that labor and are heavily laden, and I will gi7e you
rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me ; for I
meek and lowly in heart, and ye ahall find reat
unto your souls, for my yoke ia easy, and my burden
light." From this text he discoursed for about
three-fourths of an hoar, in his eloquent and happy
manner; after which an invitation was extended to
profeasois to approach the altar for prayer,
number availed themselves of the privilege, while
three or four united with the church. Theie was also
preaching at the church last night.
The services at Trinity were of a very interesting
nature at the evening service, there being the largest
audience that wc ever saw assembled in the church on
any former occasion—the house was crowded to reple
tion. A gracious revival has been progressing at this
chnrch for the last week, and will be continued
hroogh the present week, with prayer meeting each
morning, and preaching at night. The young men
also hied a very interesting prayer meeting at six
o’clock yesterday evening. Tbe pastor. Rev. Clement
A. Evans, preached from the text: “It we confess
sins, he is faithful and just to forgive ns our sins,
sod cleanse ns from all unrighteousness;’’ 1st John
1st chapter and 10th verse. Tbe sermon was snch at
its author never fails to preach, eloquent* yet proctic* 1
and easy to comprehend, forcible and impressive, be
cause of that frankness, candor and fairness
of exposition which ia secular to the preacher,
enchained the profound attention of the congregation
during the discourse and at lte conclusion about
twenty penitents presented themselves at the altar for
prayer the first of which was made by Judge John
Collier and the second by Mr. Butler. The singing on
this occasion was splendid and participated in by a
large nninber of the congregation.
To the Editors of the Herald:
That this is an important street, both ae regards the
travel over it and business conducted on it, all will ad
mit. In fact it is over this street that more than one-
half tbe cotton cold In the city is brought in. Should
it not then be kept in good condition? It was Often
the case during last winter that an empty vehicle was
a good load for a team. It was on this street that one
of the beet fire engine* in Atlanta stuck in the mud
end had to be left till morning, oue night last winter,
on returning from a fire that occurred on the Macon k
Western ftailroad.and yet we believe that no steps
have been taken to McAderalze or otherwise plaee it in
a good, safe, passable condition. It demands attention
from Whitehall street to the Macon k Western depot.
From Whitehall to Forsyth the street ia almost entirely
lined with substantial briik buelaeae houses, am
sides there is an immense quantity of goods conveyed
from the depot to the dealers over this atreet It is In
very good condition now, but when the rstae come, let
the sceptical see whether or not the work of McA
izing should have been done. This is the time, the
only time when it can be improved. Delay tbe work
bll November, and tbe mod will avenge not lees than
twelve laches deep, and yet this to one of the most
important thoroughfares in Atlanta.

Useful Information.—Who is it that is not an
noyed by rats? Every day we hear complaints of the
ravages of these pests. A farmer told us a few days
since that it was impossible to leave his young chick-
out a single night. We told a merchant a few
days since that we bad tried everything, and found
cats the most effectual. He replied that the rats in
his store could whip a cat. Yesterday we had a friend
to call at our office, who informed us that he had cap
tured over two hundred within a very short time, and
one or two occasions had captured as many as thir
teen. His plan is very simple, and consists of the
kind of bsit he uses, which is nothing more or less
than a basin of clear water. He sets the common
wire irap over a basin of water, and the rats to get to
the water will crowd the trap full every night until
they are thinned out.
Purple and Fine Linen.—a novel, by Edgar Faw
cett. G. W. Carleton k Co., publishers, New Yoik.
No one who begins to read this novel can fail to recog
nize a certain charm and brilliancy of style. The
rapidity with which incident follows incident, the
freshness shown in the painting of eveiy character,
the novelty of its dramatic situation, its witty dialogue
and tbe dariDg nature cf its snbjest, all go to make up
work of originality, vigor and sprightliness. Its les-
in is wholesome, and it well deserves to count its
readers by the thousands. The story is essentially a
New York one, and the people who figure in it are
genuine New York people. Almost every conceivable
scene of life among fashionably dissipated New York
classes is placed before the reader, and these scenes
Mr. Fswcett draws with the hand o f a master. For

Justices* Courts.
Justice Munday yesterday issued a search warrant
against a negro at the instance of Wm. Laird, from
whose fruit stand sundry articles had disappeared,
which were supposed to be in the possession of the
negro, Stephen Brown. Steve said that he thought he
would be able to find the goods, and the constable was
out with him during the day making the search, with
what success we could not learn.
No investigation of the case has as yet taken place.
$ Justice Hammond tried Mr. Alex. Bridges for assault
and battery—whipping a lazy little negro in his em
ploy. Mr. Bridges was discharged.
Thos. Finley for the State, Col. McAfee for the
defense.
Justice Sasseen yesterday issued peace warrants
against Henry Clark, Jacob Clark and Francis Wago
ner, all colored, at tbe instance of Tom Bailey, colored.
It seems that about fourteen years ago Bailey killed a
relative of these Clarks at Jonesboro, stood his trial
for murder and was acquired.
These Clarks finding out he was here havo threatened
his life—hence the warrants- The case is set for a
hearing this morning.
Off for Ireland.—Father Cullinan, pastor of the
Catholic Church in this city, left for New York on
Wednesday Iasi From this last named place ho will

that rest and travel would restore him to vigor, he de.

His congregation and numerous friends here wish
him the full realization of his expectations, a pleas
ant voyage, and safe return.
Fine Grapes.—Mr. Jonathan Norcross yesterday
evening surprised us by the presentation of a bask't
of full ripe, luscious Ives gripes, grown by himBelf
at West End. He is a veteran grape grower, and un
derstands the culture and care of the vines, and wbat

CITY POLICE COURT.
“The Court is prepared—the lawyers all met,
The Judge takes his seat, a terrible show,
As Capt. Macheath says, and when one’s in debt,
The sight’s as unpleasant a one as I know."
The invigorating breezes of yesterday morning were
playing and pranking with every movable object
around the old guard house, and Jonsen and his
••wits" were all ready, and Marshal Thomas was “a
settin* thar" with a blled shirt ou (Barry lays he laid
up on Sunday and had it washed), ana the usual crowd
of dead beats and hangers on was out in fall force, and
10>£ o’clock came and no Recorder. The non-
appearacce of the ever faithful “Ten” caused Jonsen
to move around restless like a fellow feels before he
gets his morning “nip”—nervous like. It to a curious
thing to set and watch the crowd and wonder what
has become of the Recorder. But at last he came
puffing and blowing round the corner like a new coal
burning engine, and went straight to the throne of
municipal justice.
The first case called was the name of a genuine Hol
lander, who is noted in this city for keeping the best
Cincinnati beer on draught to be found. Our friend
having an idea that hs was threatened with the “pre
vailing," went to a city physician to get a pre
scription, which was composed of rhubarb, opium,
capsicum, mustard, gum camphor, horse tadish, vanil
la bark, glycerine, wine of tar, a leetlc comfrey, and
took a dose of it; but did not before he had dosed
himself pretty thoroughly with beer, and was ordered
by the physician not to drink any more, which outrag
ed him beyond description, and he went about “like
a bandit chief who strides the walk and tears his hair
alone." His oaths were terrific, but expressive:
“ Gottsdonnsrkreuzchockscherenoth!”
How Breitman broke the bush!
O, let me see dat lager bier!
O, let me at ’um rush !
Und isb mein Jack-knife sharpe and true ?
Und ish mein Bthrong ariu goot ?
To get von quatt of lager bier
I’d sphill a tea of bloot.”
In this phrenzied mood he came up with Rose How
ard, a delightfal village maiden, and displaced his
gallantry ty striking her bolow the belt, contrary to
all rules of the ring. He presented a certificate from
his family physician stating that the above mentioned
dose was calculated to get one a little cranky, and in
consideration of this fact he was only required to pay
ten anl costs.
Amanda Dougherty, luxuriating under a Derby hat
with the crown stove in and the brim turned up be
hind, with her balmoral tacked in her boots and a
chew of balsam in her left cheek, was sauntering with
fashionable bravado under the window of a rival
princess, whom she suspected bad taken the place in
the affections of one whose breast was wont to pillow
her own weary head. The latter removed a common
cigar from her dainty month, and remarked sollo
“Uv all unkommon objects,
That akraus my vishun hum,
The strikenest and quaintest
Is that gal a chawin’ gum."
This aroused all the p assions of the houses
of Lancaster and York. and the war-
rioresses met in the room of the innocent
cause of all the fuss. Coucluding not to transform his
apartments into a battlefield, he gently pushed Dough-
erty into the hall, and gathering an old-fashioned cow-
hide, he reminded her of old times by giving her a
dozen or more hide-looseners across the shoulders.
The police woke up abcut this tt<ge of the melee, Rad
carried the Dougherty to the lock-up, where she was
let off with five dollars and costs.
“ I womd not die in winter.
When whisky punches flow ;
When perty gals are skating
O’er fields of ice and snow ;
When sassidge meat isphrying,
And hickory nuts is thick—
Ob ! who would think of dying,
Or even getting sick! "
Mr. Stower was caught by the police in tho act of
falling and rescued, from a liquory, if not from
“ su^ar-and-watery " gr*»vo. Stower had stowed several
quarts, more or less, of imported twist-knee under his
belt and stationed himself on Peters street to see the
'stars fall. Failing to see anything like a meteoric dis
play, he went in and took a moteoric survey through a
wet tumbler inverted. He then came out and tried it
again with tho naked eje. By reason of the bricks in
his hat he failed to get his occular to an angle of the
requisite number of degrees, and merely got a glimpse
of the carriage lamps and the gaslights. He needed
no further introduction. Ho was at once gratified
that Grier's Almanac had not humbugged him, and
enrions bystanders heard him exclaim—
“ Eye of Grier and toe of frogs,
Wool of brickbats—* m a hog’s !’ ”
After this incantation from Macbeth’s witches, he
pronounced it “ mostsmagnieficen speckickle natural-
itatory." He then remarked “bully," and was in the
act of taking a Northern v;ew when the aforesaid fall-
ing stars bewildered him, and he reeled into the arms
of the practical police, and followed the “ stars " of
another sort into the solemn stillness of the Barry-
onial catacombs. He was released on payment of ten
and costs.
A colored chap by the name of Waters, aud supposed
by some to be the Deke of Tidewater, in disguise, came
up the street Saturday evening wbooi ing and yelling
liko a wild Camanche Indian. He invaded the pre
cincts of an interesting young heroine of some sixty
summers, clad in a waterfall and a pair of over-shoes,
who shrieked for the “Perlice” to -come and “rally
round the flag, boys.” The Duke abused the officer
for his bruequenes*. but the Court elevated his grace
to the tune of ten and costs.
Allen Overton, chief musician of the rock bri gade
was arrested by Marshal Thomas for throwing a rock
at a little girl, which, if it had hit her, the Marshal
was candidly and unswervingly of the opinion that
death would have been her portion.
George Moreland and John Luckie disturbed the
peace and qniet of Sabbath afternoon of the citizens
of Whitehall street by coming the hat game. Luckie’s
name stood him out and ho got off, while Moreland
pays five and costs.
Adam Overby supports his mother-in-law, and in
turn he thinks she ought to assist in keeping his
linen O. K. This was not the case on Sunday morn
ing when Adam had formed his ablutions and prepared
himself to get into his clean shirt. As usual the but
tons were off. which so riled Adam that before he
could apply the breaks to his feelings he had cursed
out the whole household in general, and the mother-
in-1 w in particular. Ten and costs garnished with a
severe lecture on domestic happiness from the
court.
George Page, who had been out looking for the new
comet recently discovered in Vienna, through a glass
tickler, nntil 12 o’clock Saturday night, finally became
dizzy and swooned into the arms of the police—five
dollars.
George Veal is as nice a piece of cutlet as ever came
into Court. He had had one leg cut off at tho knee
and one eye punched out, over which he wore
a conspicuous green blind. George got hold
of some valley lau on Saturday night,
which waa so strong that it gave him the twist-knee in
his wooden leg. The court thought that a man with
two good legs couldn’t walk much with such a load,
and was satisfied that a one-legged fellow couldn’t
stand it, and let George pay five dollars and costs.
This about wound up the day’s performances, and
the curtain fell amidst tnmultuons applause.
W. P. Siler Redivitos.—We hear this question
sometimes asked, “What has become of Siler?" From
a copy of tbe Shreveport (La.) Times, we see a local
notice headed “Check Your Baggage, Sit?” and goes
on to say:
“How oiten, when hot, tired, hair filled with cin
ders, and clothes looking like you had crawled through
a coal hole and been beaten with a aoot-big, have the
above sounds fallen on your cars with a rasping
nerve—torturing effect from a thousand throats, on
the arrival of the cars, or boat at your destination?
Unless Job was an Irritable man compared with you
in point of meekness, reader, we know that you have
thought cuae words if you have not uttered them,
and consigned the whole tribe of hackmen
to the lowest depths of regions, Plutonian
In what a happy contrast are things managed by our
go-ahead, wide awake friend Siler, of the transfer. He
has the exclusive right of checking baggage on the
Texas and Pacific railway; meets the traveler on every
incoming train, takes his checks, and thus relieves
him of that annoyance, by delivering his baggage at
any hotel, boat, or private residence. Siler never dis
appoints one, as he looks after everything himself, and
is not above ahouldering a trunk himself when neces
sary. He intends to have a hack ruuning to every
portion of the city shortly, at a reasonable rate. Hs
charges travelers but 60 cents per trunk, and 25 cents
for city transfer. Patronizo Slier, for be riuhly de
serves it. Leave your orders at the Planter*’ Hotel.

The Bartow Iron Works situated above Marietta

blast, and will next month turn out daily more pig
metal than any Iron works in the Southern states.
We learn that a party of Rime and Atlanta capital

Jacksonville, Ala., has lately ercted in the cemetery,
over the graves of some Confoorate soldiers, elegant

They are neSt and durable, aud their cheapness

The above analysis, made from* sample taken from

that made in Cincinnati, in that it contaius a so much
larger per centage of nutritious elements—dextrine,
(starch) sugar, albumen, anl pure bop resin. As no
sugar is used in the manufacture, the saccharine mat
ter contained in our Lager Beer is only that derived
from the vegetable ingredient* employed.
We therefore confidently place our CITY BREWE
RY LAGER BEER in open and square competition
with any other manufacture, assured that aa a bever
age containing* considerably larger percentage of nu
tritive and tonic propeities, in proportion to weight or
volume, than any other offered in the 3 uth, it com
