WHAT THE FARMERS HAVE PUT IN THE GROUND. THE HOPE OF THE COMING HARVEST. A Herald reporter called upon Colonel Goldsmith, the Comptroller General, yesterday, in the search for information, and found him busily imm arsed in the reports rendered by the Tax Receivers of the acreage and extent of different crops planted in their several counties for the present season, and of the general wealth of the farming population. He furbished us with the following list*: There has been plantedof: 354.304‘g “ umjm “ “ 1,940’* “ 411,?* “ 5,857 \ “ 3,401 1C,451 ?* “ 383?* “ 15,413,“ 3 have the following: New Rye, for seed, arriving at Stepens A Fiyn auft-lw Rain.—The heavy lain which fell about noon yes terday was most refreshing and invigorating.

All the loose children were unceremoniously gathered up and taken in, while those of larger growth made tracks for safe places. Whether it proved to be a case of genuine hydrophobia or not, does cot appear. It was a very small dog, and at last accounts was being chased by several gentlemen with mur derous intent. la uglst at Last. AN OLD BACON THIEF TURNS UP. About six months ago a negro nzmed H irdy Echols stole a quantity of becon from a Mr. Rubertson, a merchant on Marietta street, end escaped.

He ia a well-known in police circles as a daring villain, and a lookout has been kept for him with the above result. He will be turned over to the State authorities to day. and it is more than probable that he will be pun ished according to his sins. 43“ The great rush for grapes at the Norerora Depot next to Phillips Crew’s, is a guarantee that they are fine, rich and luscious. * Tlic- Atlanta I,mv Association.

Death of Dr. W. II. Pfgg. A SUDDEN EVENT AND SAD BEREAVEMENT. It is with feelings of deep and sincere regret that we announce the death of Dr. W. H. Pegg of this city, which sad event occurred at 7 o’clock on Sunday morning last. The doctor was a well-known and high ly esteemed citizen cf Atlanta, a member of and sec retary of the Board of Health. Early on Sunday morning the deceased was returning from a visit to one of his patients, and when in front of the residence of Mr. J. C. Holbrook, on Forsyth street, was stricken down, and after being carried into tho house died in a few minutes. He did net speak after he fell, so com plete and terrible was the shock on bis system. He had spoken to Mr. Holbrook before this, and in an instant was discovered to be reeling and falling. He was apparently iu good health, though be had been complaining of slight pains for several days, but was still attending to bis duties to the sick as a physician. Ho therefore evidently died from either appoplexy or affection of the heart. Dr. Roach is of the opinion that it was from the latter. His corpse was conveyed to his residence on Peters street, where tho surprise and horror of his wife, chil dren and relatives was manifested with tears of grief. The agony of the devoted wife, who is herself in feeble health, was past description. During the day numer ous friends called at the residence to express their sympathy for the bereaved family, among them Drs. Asher and McFall and other members of the Board of Health. The funeral services were held at Tiinity Church, of which Dr. Pegg was a useful and beloved member, conducted by Rev. Dr. W. P. Harrison, pastor of tbe First M. E. Church, South. A large concourse of peo ple had assembled at the Church, and at half-past nine o’clock the pall-bearers entered with tbe remains, followed by the Masonic fraternity and the sorrowing relatives and friends of the deceased. The ceremo nies were most solemn and impressive, and the ser mon was a befitting eulogy upon the high and noble character of Dr. Pegg in all the relations of life. A laige number of his ministerial brethren were present on the occasion, among them Rev. C. A. Evans, Rev. Dr. Boring, Rev. George H. Pattillo, Rev. James M. Dickey, Rev. D. F. Hammond, Itev. P. M. Ryburn, Rev. C. J. Oliver, Rev. Mr. Brown, Rev. Mr. Mize, Rev. Mr. O’Donnelly, Rev. Wra. O. Butler, Rev. Charles Dowman, of the Methodist Church. The services concluded, the procession formed and the solemn train moved slowly to the cemetery, the Masons leading, followed by the ministers, then the hearse, and tbe carriages containing the relatives and friends. The remains were deposited in the tomb with the honors of Ma.onry. and the large concourse separated and retired to their several homes, having paid the last honor to a good man. It must be a source cf consolation for those dear to him to know that he was an exemplary Christian ia his daily walk and practice, and ready and prepared to meet the solemn messenger. Death. He leaves a wife and several children, to whom we extend, in this their sad affliction, that condolence which onr knowledge of bis high moral and religious character inspires. Thus has another good man been called to that “bourno from which no traveler returneth.” Personal Intelligence. When General Beauregard passed through Atlanta the other night, cn route for Wliito Salpher Springs, he announced to a friend that he “was going to see his sweetheart.” He is still on the “unify.” Mr. Carlton Hillyer, Auditor of tho Georgia Rail road, was in the city yesterday.

About twelve months ago a man named Edward Taylor, who lived in this city, waa accused, arrested and convicted of a crime (we think burglary) and sen tenced to the penitentiary, by Jndge Hopkins, for twenty years He was shackled and placed in tbe blacksmith shop. He waa with the squad that ia working near the city on the Western railroad, and on last Saturday evening, while no one waa with him, he dug out in tome manner from under the ahop, which was a portable one, and escaped. When bis absence was discovered tbe track bounds were placed upon his trail, and following him to the city, they lost tha scant at the mouth of a sewer, into which Taylor bad crawled. Abovt half-past 12 o'clock that night officer J. M. Evans was going his rounds, and bis attention was attracted by the sounds of the clanking shackles of Taylor, who waa In the neighborhood of his own bouse. The officer aaw a man on tbe street, who turned and started Lack as soon as he waa set Evans hailed him, and, quickening his steps, soon came up with Taylor, whom he knew and recognized at once.

General Jubal Early's letter about the sit uation of political affairs in Louisiana con tains extracts from a letter written to him by General Beauregard, in which the latter says: ‘•Like many others, you think we have time to wait, and allow matters to adjust themselves quietly and gradually; but I can assure you we are driven to the wall, and “are on our lost legs.” No one can realize onr sad distress unless he witnesses our condi tion. It makes one’s heart bleed to think of tho poverty and ruin which are actually staring in the face of most of our best people. I do not speak for myself and family; for, thanks to my pro fessional reputation, I can manage to get along comfortably enough here or else- wheie, but I refer to those thousands of plan ters who have no other resource than their in dustry and knowledge of the soil. Take away from them their plantations, and they will be perfectly helpless. Our “unification” movement may not take “liko a prairie fire,” but it will surely succeed in this Stato when viewed in its proper light; for, after all; we only propose to accord to the colored people the political mid civil rights guaran teed to them by our Radical constitution, on condition that they will aid us in getting rid of those vagabonds who have plundered us so unmercifully for tho last five years. In advo cating this plan I give up no principle, and I wish to part with no friends. I believe now, as I did when I fired tho first gun in 18C1, j and one of tho last in 18C5, that the cause we upheld was a just and holy one; but we failed in our struggle—were overpowered and conquered—and we have to submit to the old Gallic maxim malheur aux vaincus. I view j onr present condition in its practical light. If I were attacked by a set of highway rob bers, and some negroes could come to my assistance, ought I to refuse their aid be cause they are colored people ? No, in deed ! I would accept it, and give them probably my shirt with which to make a rope to hang tho scoundrels; and thus I am willing to do for tho plunderers of Lou isiana. This movement is not at all polit ical, nor do I recommend it toother States not similarly situated, whero- the inhabi tants are not boldly called upon by those in authority (under tho protection of Federal bayonets) to ‘Stand and deliver.” What I recommend to my people is simply “unifica tion,” to rid ourselves of those unscrupulous carpet-baggers who are ruining us, and “im migration,” to enable our planters to change their extensive and expensive plantations into small, profitable farms, by which also wo will be able to turn our vagrant colored popula tion into property holders and tax-payers, thereby making them useful, conservative citizens. My friends need not fear that I shall go any further in this movement than at first intended. I am by no means a poli tician, and have no desire to occupy office, cither Federal, State or municipal; no con sideration at present (in view of tho position I have assumed) could not induce mo to ac cept one if tendered. Those who are absurd and unjust enough to compare me to an ex- Confederate officer whose mourning we wear in our hearts, must know very little of me if they suppose I am about to follow bis exam ple. I have too high a regard for my reputa tion (which belongs not alone to me) ever to forswear tho past, but, at tlie same time, I claim tho light of advising, to the best of my ability, my fellow-citizens of Louisiana what is best to do to save themselves and their State from utter ruin and desolation. Hav ing done so, my part is ended, aud their’s must commence. J. M.

One Mormon Family.—The Mormons of Utah regard with abhorrence, and denounce in strong terms, a particular case of poly gamy which has lately been brought to public notice in the Salt Lake Tribune. It is treat ed as an anomalous case, and such in no respect illustrates Mormon life. In 1802 a woman and two children, daughters, arrived in Salt Lake aud took up their abode. The woman had lelfc her husband iu Sheffield, England. Ho was also a Mormon, and in two years followed his wife and children to Utah. Iu the meantime the wife had mar ried again, but had become dissatisfied, and was trying to get a church divorce from her second husband. She obtained it, but the original couple did not get married again, as would have been the most fitting thing to do under all the circumstances. The man went his way and left the woman and her daughters to go theirs. Tlic woman married a man nearly seventy years of age.

With the almost nightly warnings from the visits of these rascals various parts of the city, it is wonderful how bold they have grown, and how negligently people go to sleep totally unprepared to receive these becoming manner. About daylight on Sunday morning, Mrs. Col one Christian, who is boarding at Mrs. Barnard’ Whitehall Street, became nervous and restless and woke up. Her daughter was sleeping iu the same room, and so singularly did Mrs. C. feel, that she called to her daughter several times, and inquired if she was sick or anything the matter. Receiving negative reply, she still felt uneasy, and raising up she saw a man in the room. She raised the a’arm, when the burglar rushed towards the window. Mrs. Chris tian bravely jumped out of bed, and running np to the man. collared him, and endeavored to detain him til help came from the male boarders in the house. The man pulled loose from her and jumped into tho open window, and was endeavoring to make his exit as rapidly as possible, when Mrs. C. caught him by tbo foot, but he pulled loose aud escaped. The evening before a negro man came to the lionse to hire as a waiter on the table. He saw Mrs. Chris tian pay her bill v as she intended to leave the follow ing morning) and place some change, amounting to fifty dollars, back in ber pockctbook. Mrs. Christian supposes this is the negro she encountered. She missed that amount of money, besides, perhaps, her watch and other valuables. About 8 o’clock Sunday morning the polico aent for, and the arrest of the negro, Henry m«d t. while ho wu yet in bed, togethjyjft, anotUer boy who wu sleeping w.a carried to the lock-up, »>utpojjj|g^ y denies the charge. The i, however, are very strong against him, the matter will be investigated to-day. Of course, none of the stolen property has been recovered. ANOTHER ATTEMPT. Daring Saturday night a robber came to the resi dence of Mr. James I. Thomas, ou Kelson street, and raised the window to his sleeping apartments without being heard. Tbe little child of Mr. Thomas was very sick with whooping cough, and a lamp was kept burn ing all night. Mrs. Thomas, on going to the relief of the child, discovered the window up, and called Mr. Thomaa’ attention to it. He at once jumped up, knowing that a burglar was about. Ho seized the fire tongs as the first weapon he could get his bauds on, and running out he saw the villain going out the gate. Mr. Thomas gave chase down the street, robed de nuit. Tho thief ran in tho direction of the deep railroad cut, and as Mr. Ihomas thought he had him “ hemmed,” he jumped over a fence and took off in another direction, and thus eluded his pur. suer. Mr. Thomaa was joined in the cliaso by Mr. Joe Ormond, who was awakened by tho noise, and thinks perhaps there wae another thief attempting a raid at tbe same time upon bis own premises. These attempted depredations have set the whole of Nelson street In a furore of excitement, and prepara tions have since been instituted by tha dwellers along that thoroughfare by which it will doubtless be un healthy for thieves and burglars to attempt a similar trick in that neighborhood. We hear of several other attempts on tho same nlgbt in different parts of the city to steal, bnt none suc cessful. Our policemen are keenly alive to tbe neces sity of keeping an eye on suspicions characters, and it is but reasonable to suppose that they will make a haul on some of these midnight prowlers.

When that time comes tho “men folks,” as a rule, give the domestic hearth a “wide berth.” Oceans of suds—tho product of tons of soap—fairly flood every part of tho house. The women, from the mistress down, labor as they never worked before, and what with the discomfort, the smell of suds and tho dampness, and not un- frequently sickness, the product ot colds and overwork, ruatlers are generally disagreeable. The simple uso of Sapolio instead of soap does away with all this discomfort. It light ens the labor a hundred per cent., bccauso it removes dirt, grease, stains and spots, with hardly any labor, with bnt little water, and in onc-tenth*the usual time. aug8-l\v rcetail dealers in city and country can always find Bacon, Flour, Grain, Hay, Ac., Ac., at jnly23-tf Dunn, Oglktrf.e &, Co’s.
