Street Imppoyemjest—The worh of improving the
etrr* ta of tbe city progresses ee last as the mease et
the disposal of tbe council wilt aimit of. Some of the
prii.cipal thoroughfares have received heavy coatT
broken rock, which wiU be lantiog. while others
beii g made yassabie, at least, until Spain *oaked
through by the fall and winter rains.
The roadway of Whitehall, although solid, is very
uneven, and tbouid receive some attention. There is
pro. ably more driving through it than any other
street in the city.
Brilliant Mabbiac.x—another Bachelor Surren
dered.—Last night St. Paul s Methodist Church,
Hunter street, was crowd* d with friends and visitors
to witness the marrisge of Mr. Reese H. Butler, of the
firm of Porter k Butler, to the beautiful and charm
lng Miss Julia Kennedy. The marriage ceremony was
performed by the Rev. G. H. Pattillo. The attendants
were Mr Habbard Harrington. Mr W It Dimock. Mr
James Evans, Mr Jack Johnson, Mr George Spencer,
Mr Woodward, Miss Mary Small, Miss Georgia Smith,
Mias Lula Kennedy, Miss Fannie Shell. Miss Lola
McLendeu, Miss J Morris. All passed off very pleas
antly. Mr. Baber and lady will remain in th city
until Monday next, when they leave for Tuccos Falls
to spend tbeir honeymoon, accompanied by nearly all
of their attendants. A pleasant time is anticipated by
Military Notes.
The Atlanta Cadets are very anxious to go to Macon
to contend for the $500 premium for the best drill'd
company in Georgia. The commissioned officers of
the company have agreed to add $500, by tbeir own
private subscription, to tbe ‘premium offered by the
city ot Macon, making $1,000 in all. The company
will meet on Friday evening to decide whether o
they will go.
Tbe Macon companies have invited a company of
the famons Seventh Regiment of New Yotk, fo;merly
commanded by James Fisk, to be present at tbe State
Fair, and participate in the parade.
It ia said that tbe Lincoln Onards i Molas.se's colored
militia), ot Savannah, is the best drilled body in the
State. The negroes have an advantage over the
whites—their fi-et are ao pnt on their pins that they
can march backwards as well as forward.
Tbe Georgia Zouaves were out last night, aev
enty-sfx men in ranks. Captain Conk y commanding,
on tbe drill ground. One member of the company
had his uniform on, and dropped in at the Hjcrald
office for inspection. The uniform is on the regular
Zouave style—dark b.ue jacket, profusely dashed with
braid and buttons, loose crimson cap, with flip, crim
son Zouave pants, white duck leggings, and crimson
sa»b. It ia the handsomest thing we have seen yet,
Seventy-four uniforms Lava Wen ordered, and will be
completed as fast aa possible. Th»y arc being made
by Mr. Ccok, ever J. G. Jones’ store. The Zouaves
are going to Macon to contest for tbe great prize, and
nearly every member b*ing an old and well drilled
soldier, they will stand not a bad chance to get it.

A Xew York Drummer a ml an Alligator
It is r general impression upon the mind* of their
friends that the average New York drummer i* fully
inced that what he don’t know about everything
is not worth finding out. And he Las very good i
sons for thus being impressed with this sense of
periority over his more stsy-at-home acquaintances.
He is two-thirds of the year on his travels—at
time in the bleak and frigid atmosphere of the North
and West, and in the coarse of the tame trip he is
reveling amid the flowers and sunshine of the more
tropical divisions of this great country. And he hears
all ths jokea and know* all the ” sells,” for it is a part
of hi* livelihood to be able to regale a customer aDd
his crowd of friends with funny anecdotes and pun
gent yarns aboat what happened in different parts of
the country.
One among the best and widely known gentlemen of
this class is our friend, Major J. M. Handley,
connected with the largest clothing house, not in
New York, but in the known world. The Major
well known throughout the South and Southwestern
States, and has been successful in hi* business career.
Of course he has a fund of information and anecdotes
and tale* on hand, and is ever ready to amuse and ei
tertain a party with an amusiDg joke, or divert
friend by “selling him out.” The Major is at present
spending a few days at the Kimball House, where he
has abandoned himself to levity and recreation for
short spell.
In the basin of the fountain, situated in the centre
of the office floor of the Kimball, is a real live alliga
tor, which was pnt there several months a^o by Col.
Nicholls a* a cariosity for those who Lave never been
accustomed to the sight of these ugly creatures.
There are also four or five automatic ducks, which
gracefully float in the miniatare pond
taining the live alligator. On yesterday,
gentleman anl a merchant from Southwest Georgia,
from a region literally flowing with alligators, was at
the Kimball, and in conversation with Hand ey in the
second arcade remarked that the alligator had
grown considerably since he made his last
viait to the hotel. The Major, thinking, from the
quiet way in which the alligator conducted himself—
lying perfectly still and never winking an eye, was of
the same inanimate character as the ducks, and not
wishing to let hi* friend know that he was speaking
of a wooden varmint, said, “Yes, I suppose it has
been eating and feastiDg off of freab eggs which those
ducks daily deposit.
Then going into dinner, with a chnckle, he related
to a distinguished lawyer and an ex-Confederate
States Senator, what a good thing he had on South
west Georgia, and bow he remarked about the egga in
order to help his friend ont, not wishing to "le
that he had made a mistake.
The ex-Senator rather took the wind out of Hand
ley’s joke by remarking that the alligator was a real
live institution, and, after all, the beer was oi
Handley owned up and acknowledged the “corn,
and ordered wine. But after dinner he was seen pok
ing tbe end of his cane at the alligator, and when the
amphibious moved gracefully away, he remarked qui
etly: " Well, I thought the d—d thing was made out
of wood.”

To the Editor* of the Hf.bald:
Dear Sirs,—You will please correct the statement
of the cutting scrape that occurred on last Saturday
evening,.the 264h, between James Ciar.e and Pony
Yaaghn. I wish to correct the pise 3 where the cut
ting took place.
As Mr. Crane was on his way home he met three
men on the sidewalk, Pony Vaughan, James Peak and
Charles Cooper. It was getting dark and they
coming hand in hand, and run against Ciane just be
yond James Loftie’s grocery. Some one of the three
apologized to Crane for running against him. Crane
told them it was all right, for no one was hurt; and
then Vaughn said that he intended to whip Crane.
Crane said it was not decided for him to take a whip
ping, and told Vaughn he did not yrant any difficulty,
and told him to go ou and attend to his own business,
snd we will not have any difficulty; and Crane went
towards home, and had got as far as Brice Webb'
grocery, some thirty or forty yards from Vaughn
and Crane taw Vaughn coming at bim in a run, and
Crane stopped, and a* moon as Vaughan got near
enough to Crane he commenced cutting him wi;
knife, and then Crane with his right arm
caught him by the throat and gave h in a trip
and threw bim down, and Ciane making
attempt to stamp him with bis feet. Vaughn then
gave bim another severe cut In the left side
Vaughn made a pass to get up, and Crane threw
on his face, Vaughn cutting st hiss all the time
after Crane got him In a position to save himself from
being stabbed, Vaughn hallooed, “ He Is cutting !
is cutting ! be is cutting me ! ” Crane waa then palled
off VeUfril by Jsase* Peak aod others; after Vaughn
got loose from Crane, be ran down the street, whence
lying, ’* He has cut me all to pieces;”
Id feci the blood running down in his
was then aoeompanied home by four
or five men. who witnessed seeing hi* knife lying
his wife’s sewing machine; Crane bad no knife, pis
tol, or weapons of any kind; he bad to defend himself
with bis hands.
This is the true statement of the whole difficulty
that evening between Crane'and Vaughn.

It would be iu bad taste to indulge in the language
paoygertc in this presence, and I am equally sure it
wonld not be acceptable to tbe distinguished speaker
who will address you this evening; for while his fame
an orator has filled all the land, his humility as a
Christian is equally well known.
The Right Rev. Bishop Gross, in the discharge of
his duties as an humble minister of Christ’s gospel,
came to Atlanta and delivered two sermons at the
Church of the Immaculate Conception.
These seimons were heard by many of our promi
nent citizens, who are Protestants, and so deeply im
pressed were these gentlemen with the Catholic spirit
broad charity which pervaded them, that they
united with many others in a petition to the distin
guished speaker to deliver a lecture for the general
public.
In compliance with that call he appears before you
this evening, and I confidently bespeak for him that
attention which his oratory and talents have never
failed elsewhere to command and which, I am sure, au
Atlanta audience will not be the last to appreciate.
Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce the Bight Rev.
Bishop Grosp.
The Bishop then arose, and in a lofty and easy man
ner addressed the multitude as follows:
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Lord Byron has a very eloquent piece ot poetry, re
plete with thrillimg eloquence on what the condition
of this world would bo if the great sun were hid out
from tho heavens, or the darkness that wonld cover
this world over. All the despair that would cover the
hearts of men, and death stalk abroad through the
paths of the world.
If the sun should go into darkness, despair would
cover the earth, death would destroy all thiDgs; but,
my dear beloved f riends, apart from this, what could
>ild do wiibont charity ? What then would this
world be? There is a nobler sun than the material
sun, and that sun, ladies and gentlemen, is charity.
How strange that men do not feel the warmth of its
influence. It pervades the humblest cottage, and the
gilded palac* Those who live in the humblest cot
tage will be preferred to those iu the golden palace
without it.
The hard bed is sweet when charity reigns; all will
be sweet, provided man lives In the light of charily.
All will be fruitless where charity does not exist;
and it is with carefal truth that the Holy Bible de
scribes Heaven as the place where religion and where
charity dwell forever. And there is no such tiling as
to live, in its true sense, without charity.
But my friends, before I gi furtht r into my subject,
it may be well to examine iuto charity—iuto what we
understand by charity. There are many people
in this world who have never found out the idea
of charity, nor are they able to express it;
but a little out of tbe general rule among men, you
will find many who talk much of this subject, but
bring them down to hard logic and a*k them for defi
nitions, and they are found totally unable to give
them. I remember a very remarkable and laughable
incident which was told me years ago. It came to me
from my grandfather. There came from Germany an
immigrant; he brought his wife and children along
with him. He rented a bouse adjoining my grand
parents. I have li7ed among the Germans a good
deal. I have noticed that the Germen men generally
make most excellent husbands; but in this case, it was
a little out of the iule. This German was in the
very bad habit of beating his wife occasionally. And
if I speak of my grand parents, we can praise the
dead, I hope. My grandfather was the very pink of
chivalry. Women, in his idea, seemed to be all of
beauty and chastity, and the very idea of a man’s
beating a woman he never could tolerate. So he went
into this German’s house one day, and said to him:
My good friend, I have noticed that you beat j our
wife frequently. I will not tolerate it. It is not al
lowed in this country. If ;ou beat your wife again,
I’ll have you arrested, and they’ll put you in jail.”
The man looked up and says: “What! do you call
this a free country—a man can’t beat his wife
I’ll go back to Germany to-morrow. (Laughter.) Now,
ladies and gentlemen, you see that that man had very
Incorrect ideas of freedom. He thought he could beat
bis wife whenever he wanted to. People will talk ol
charity, and they have no correct idea of it, and they
nevei seem to have any correct idea of tho charity of
iligion. The way of the Puritan religion was that
they loved th.ir religion so well that they would let
one else have any. (Laughter.) You will agree
with me again that their idea of religion was incor
rect. What it has to do with the subject I have
let us now inquire. Yon will find that people
have incorrect ideas of it frequently.
There was a collection taken once for a charitable
purpose. They came to a business man and says,
■You will certainly place something on the list V
said, “Place my name on the roll John Jones. . I give
twenty-five cents.” You can find at his
finest ham and bacon in the city of Boston. But if
the name is to bs placed there where the world cannot
how much he has contributed, how different is it
If you will have a box, with a place to contribute, you
can put in your pennies or anything, and no 003 will
know how much you give there except our
Father, who sees tbe secret gift and will reward you
for it. How little is contributed.
For one hour and ten minutes the distinguished
prelate continued io enchain the attention of his vast
auditory on this beautiful subject. He said that
Saviour when on earth exercised a charity that never
failed to protect the unfortucate; that when Mary
Magdalen was brought before Him, He forgave her—
and when another poor woman, caught in
• crime which society never pardons, v
boonght into his presence, his enemies watched bim
how he wonld avoid the violation of the law and
yet exercise that love and charity which hare ever
characterized his course. You all know, said the Biah'
op. how he saved the poor penitent, and yet kept the
law.

THK RECOLLECTIONS OF AULD I.ANO SYNE.
After breakfast yesterday morning, iu the arcade of
the Kimball House, occurred au unusual scene, and
one fraught with many recollections by fho parties Im
mediately interested.
Nearly sixty years ago Mr. John Neal, of this city,
and Col. W. U. Sparks, of New Orleans, but at i resent
spending the summer months here, were frolicking
and light-hearted school boys in Warren county, in
this State. What s gap in a man’s life is sixty years!
WLat change* ! What vicissitudes and what freaks
old Time has played with these two venerable school
mates! Both have now nearly reached four ccore
years, and have already lived above the allotted time
of man. Yet tho warm friendship engendered in
youth has never cooled with declining yeirs, and the
sen ti men tali tiee of their boyhood days still linger
around the hearts of these aged friends, and, as abovr
■Utcd. JudK, D.niel Plttmta. tb« .on-ta lair of Mr.
Neal, was commissioned by that gentleman to present
to CoL Sparks a neat gold-headed cane, as s token of
continued love snd esteem.
As Judge Pittman handed tbe little memento to Col.
Sparks, with the message from his old friend, tbe
Colonel swelled with rifopt
mpted to-'return his thanks,
tie vffMfak cheek* J
The aff*ir was witnessed by several gentlemen who
were present, and all were struck with the peculiar
mark of sentiment existing between the so two old
schoolmates of sixty years ago, and the fifficy of the
poet naturally walled up in the hearts of afl present
There’s a beautiful isle in the Long Ago,
AU flooded with golden light;
A»d ajriver that glides fey the magic shore
Whose waters are wondrous bright.
And a bark that move* with snowy sail*.
And the music of silver oar.
That carries us back to the shining gates
Of that beautiful pari oaoe aswro I
And every heart holds some sweet dream
Of s beautiful Long Ago.”
A Iln ndriome Present from M
of West Point.
Lord Cbeelerfield said it was better to hand a hand
kerchief gracefully than to bestow a hundred pounds
awkwardly. Judged by this rule, Mr. D. C. Shutz, of
West Point, has laid Ihe Editors of the Herald under
heavy obligatian, as he sent them
special messenger cn yesterday afler-
a large box containing nine varieties of the
most luscious and beautiful grapes, ami seven varie
ties of plume. Each variety was carefully labeled,
and most tastefully arranged. We arc troubled what
to dd with'them. They look so pretty that we dielike
to disturb them, and have concluded to make the
whole box a present. He says he has eighteen varie
ties of plums, eight of which are now ripe and gone-
In the letter, he Btates that he is a
native of the vine ciad hills of Germany, he
think8 that Middle Georgia presents a ftuer climate
and a better soil for grapes and small fruits than eveD
his native laud. Mr. Shutz extends a polite invita
tion for us to visit him la fruit season, which we
would only be too gla 1 to do. lie also expresses great
interest in the Pomological Society, and we would sug
gest that he send just such a box as he tent us
i th‘i Society for their meeting next Saturday.
Home Again.—Mr. James Miller, of the Howe Ma
chine Company, lady and John G. Miller, returned to
their homes iu this city yesterday afternoon, after a
tour of nearly a month, the two latter looking hale
and hearty, and appearing as if their native a’.r rejn-
vinated them. Mr. Miller went as far east as New
York and Connecticut, and visited his relations and
home of his youth among the hills of the Keystone
State. He reports the country everywhere looking
charming, and bnainess matters in a prosperous con
dition. Mrs. Miller, during her huBbaod’s more ex
tended visit, remained with her friends in the Capital
of the Buckeye State, and, from appearances, must
have enjoyed herself to her heart's content. John G.
M., being much attached to this, his native State, al
though much invigorated bodily, thinks the poet was
right when he wrote the old song:
“There is no place like home.”
A Genius.—Mr. T. J. Harper, of the Howe Machine
Company, in this «ity, is certainly a great genius. He
undertakes nothing in mechanism, eve a of the finest
d most difficult character, without accomplishing
i design; indeed, he is a success in everything he
attempts. We yesterday saw a crayon likeness of a
young lady, copied and enlarged from a photograph,
by Mr. Harper, which is an evidence that that gen
tleman’s skill is not confiued to mechanics, but that
he is also au adept in the flue arts. The likmess ia
indeed true to nature, and although it may be said
that this in his first effort at anything of the kind, it
gives evidence of excellent taste, a line conception of
the art, and the work of a master baud.
Hop Tins FyektNQ.— This evening the regular
weekly hop will come off at tbe Kimball House, and
regularly every Thursday evening hereafter until the
first of October. These hops are intended solely for
social enjoyment, and visitors arc not expected to
wear the usual fall costumes.
