His office is very convenient—in the ^Kimball House, on the first floor. He is a regularly appointed ticket agent, and he will sell a ticket to any point in the United States, or buy any ticket that you may not have use for. J. H. Dtkkm an,—This popular clothier, next to the National Hotel, kesps giving the people '‘fits” in unex ceptionable clothing. His stock is superb, fashionable beyond question, and it is quite the thing to be arrayed in one of Dyke- man's “suits," and it is not necessary to employ a lawyer to attend to one of these suits, though all fash ionable lawyers are always in them. Son* Fix* Goods.—M. Blob k Co. some new shades of cloths for ladies' dresses. Collier & Venable.—We csll attention to the car.l of this Arm which appears elsewhere. Hrarcely more than two years ago they established their drug busi ness iu the store then re- ently vacated by Pemberton k Taylor. Notwithstanding tlss active competition they enoountared from old and long established deal ers. they soon built up a floe huaim m and now enjoy a large and profitable patronage. Both members of the firm are young men—true types of the pushing, energetic class of.citlzens who havo built and are ft 11 building up Atlanta. A special feature in their busi ness is tbeir prescription department, under the j charge of Mr. It. T.Jourdon, one of the most expe- received i rienced prescriptionis!* in the city.

Bed wine k Fox.—It is with pleasure that we call at tention to the advertisement of Bed wine A Fox in this issue of our paper. The oldest established drug house in the city and reliable in every reenact, the public should never cease to patronize them. They have in the past fulfilled their duties to their customers, and this is s fair criterion that In the future none need pur chase without being thoroughly satisfied. It la grati fying to speak well ot a good honse. Mark W. Johsson —Tbo great agricultural ware house of Mr. Johnson, at the corner of A'abtmaard Korns th street, is one of the most remarkable results of energy, correct dealing and genuine business talents in the Soatbern country. This new store would be an ornament to almost any city; and In it is founj everythin; In the way of Implements, machin ery, stock, seeds, fertilizers, etc., that a planter needs. He sells larg-ly to the terming community, and his customers find him on tbs square. On 'Change. There was a fair attendance ou 'ebang yesterday morning. Vice President, A. C. Wyly presided.

I have never heard of tiny failure in any sewer where it has been used. Tbe value of the pipe depends entirely on the quality of the cement aud the sand, and the materials used here are perfectly satisfac tory. Mr. It. thinks that yours is made from Lou isville cement, an article thnt he would not The Iiosendale cement ia brought from near New York city, although a good quality of cement is made within twenty miles of Mr. R’a works. Yours Respectfully, John M. Ditta, Engineer. The Sewer Committee of the city of St. Louis having condemned the use of the con crete pipe, and adopted the terra cotta or vi- cirified clay pipe, a controversy arose which necessitated an extensive correspondence be tween the city engineer and a number of lead ing engineers of various cities in different por tions of the country.

Parsons came here, and since then he has reliable, affable, courteous, prudout, and has a large been one of the institutions of the city. Whether aa ; experience. K*pec:al attention is called to his refer- lumber merchant or cool dealer, he baa alwas borne a J ences. fine reputation for Integrity and square dealing. He is now engaged in selling Coal Creek Coal, and guar antees to give the best quality and full weight. Mr. Parsons baa a host of friends. Genial, kind hearted and liberal, his word ia his bond, and he always keeps it. W. H. Brotherton, having failed to aell his real es tate, and to doae out hia a took of goods by the 1st in- otant, will continue to aell at greatly reduhed prices. All yon have to do to convince yonrself of tbe tact ia just to call and price. Ladies white, black and colored kid gloves, superior quality, 50 cents; white mar- jieillea quilts $1.25; 4-4bleached and brown domestic* 12cent*; striped and figured cambric $12.q cents; Gents’ gennipe calf boots $3.00, and all other good* at correspondingly reduced rates. In fact, this la lha place to buy cheap good*. P. A G. T. Dodd & Co. Bat few of the merchants of Atlanta can boast of as long a business career in this city, and aa uninter rupted prosperity as can the solid, popular firm ot P. k G. T. Dodd k Co. Among the first to open business here, they have long maintained an enviable position, not only in the mercantile community of this city, bat among the merchaata of the State. No higher evi dence of their sterling integrity and liberal dealing can be required than the fact that among tbeir nu merous customers are men who oegan dealing with them fifteen years ago. To-day, with a largely in creased business, the old familiar firm of P. k G. T. Dodd k Co. maintains its ground and keeps pace with the ever progressing prosperity of Atlanta. Fbase and His Wife —These popular restaura teurs are atiU getting rich and keepiug happy. They find tbeir present quarters too much crowded, and a re going to move into handsomer and larger quarters (juat below tbeir present stand), where they will be able to make aa many aa 1,200 people happy in one day. As little as Pease la, lje is the biggest thing in At anta. O. C. Carroll.—The abo/e man ia the only person in the city worthy to have succeeded M. E. Kenney. He la dealing out Whisky that does not bring head aches at Kenney’s old stand, where be will be glad to meet any of hia old friend*. Ha keeps every thing in the drinking line. We know from experience that roost of his drinkables are good. The Fcbnitube Emporium.— Mr. I*. IX. bnoek is | ! probably tbe liveliest furniture man in Georgia. He ; j has built up a busines of immense magnitude, and has ! j seen several firms giv* it «p, while he was prospering j ] and making character and business. He now has tbe j largest trade of any bouse in th* city, aud bid* fair to keep it, as he certainly deserve*. H. C. Pope it one of the prominent dealers iu the wholooale drug business. He ia doing a rapidly in creasing business. He is thoroughly competent, and understand* well his buaiues*. He ha* made many friends by the manrer in wblcn he treats his many customers. He pays prompt at’entiou to all ordera, and guarantee* all goods. T. C. Matson.—Prominent among the institutions of the city la “The Liva Auction Hoaae" of whichT.C Mayson and J. R. Barrett are the presiding genius#*. Both are emphatically aelf made men. Starting with nothing bnt plenty of will and little money they have worked their way up to the head of the auction trade of Atlanta. Believing in the old maxim of^“small profit* and qaick returns,” they are able to aell at prices that defy competition. In addition to their auction trade they ara extensive dealers In furniture, aud being content with a small margin of profits, have undersold the market repeatedly. They have recently added carpets to their list of specialties, and propose to a&tonish the carpet trade thia fall and winter. Barrett ia a prince among auctioneer*, while Mayson U a sharp business man. Both are bard workers, and personally genial and clever. They deserve the patron age they epjoy. John A. Doane.—This popular hatter announces elsewhere that he la off to New York and the East, for tbe purpose of laying iu a stock of bats, caps, nmbrel- lia, Ac. This announcement la sufficient. Mr. Doan© 1* one of our largest dealer*, and one of our best merchants. Kiser am «S Bro. In 1803 one of the members of this firm came to At lanta and opened a small clothing store on Whitehall street. Beginning with a very small capital, the firm worked Its way np, and ia now one of the largest cloning bouses in the State. Three yean ago they add. l a tailoring department to their business, which has met with complete ancceaa. They import their own clothes, a*d have brought to thi* market a quality of go<«la equal to any In the country. At present they are nceiving a large stock of superb ready made clothii g, and their store on Whitehall street ia being fitted up in elegant style for the fall and winter trade. For tb- tailoring business they have made extensive prepare ions, their stock of piece ciotha of their own manufacture, which are now arriving, excelling all their previous efforts in that llna. There ia no more reliable tlothlng bouse in the city, and none that has a higher or finer reputation for fair dealing. Finney ’h Carriage Factory—Borne of our people were a little astonished some months since, when it waa announced that Finney, our Carriage Factory man had received an order from Savannah, for $12,000 worth of Sewing Machine Wagon*. Those who knew of Finney’s resources and energy, knew that the Sa vannah man had a very level head on, when he sent this order to him. For neatness of design, for ele gance of execution, or for durability and comfort in vehicles, cant be excelled in the South. Hia workmen are all first class and white; he i running a large and prosperous establishment, lie i» not at all proud ; not at all on th* silk etockin-x ord«r, hot daily palls off his cost, rolls up hit sleeve*, goes nto hi* workshops, and per# on ally superintends the making of every joint of every buggy, carriage or wagon. He Isa capital work man, and if a mechanic in any of the shops falls sick, Finney can awing the sledge hammer in hia place, and keep the thing moving nntll the place can be auppUed. In short, he ia a hard working, prosperous manufac turer; strong-armed, liberal-hearted and level-headed. Hia vehicles, like himself, are hard to beat. He man ufactures about $70,000 worth a year, and of tha very highest grade. His vehicles have taken tha first pre ml urns at a dozen Fairs. J. W. BcaxK k Co.—It waa Impossible for a live pushing firm like that of J. W. Burke A Co., Macon, to remain long without opening a branch Atlanta, hence we were not anrprised when they started their store here. Opening In the dull season, they have quietly built up a fine business, and during the coining season will reap the reward of their enterprise Tbeir tfkore, on tha corner of Whitehall and Alabama streets, hi one of the moet attractive in tb6 city. It is divided into departments—one devoted to sta* tionery and printers* material, another to school books, and ao on throughout all tee branches or the business. They offer to duplicate any New York bill for all articles in tbeir line. The Atlanta bouse is under the management of Mr. F. G. Hancock, a young man of fine address and excellent business qualifica tions, to whose energy and enterprise must be attrib uted much of the success which the firm has slreal j obtatnad. Watchful of the tmeses! of hia Ara, he naves permits anepperfcmity topes# to pfeab Km boa? ncae, and hia geniality, politeness and fair dealing are certain to retain a customer ones gained. Law k Co—Are wholesale crockery merchant*. They are men of high standing and undoubted in- t;grity—they are doing a large business in crockery and glassware. They are old deakrs in this busi ness, and are very much encouraged by tbeir trade, j They deserve success. The Terra Cotta Works.—About two and a half years ago Peligrini and CJeorgi, two poor Italians witbont credit and without friends, established tbe Term Cctta Warks situated i.ear the barracks in West End. This is the onlv Terra Cotla Manufactory South of Louisville. They now sup ply neatly every town in the State with Terra Cotta poods. They have established ugencies in Macon, Savannah, Columbia, Romo, Washington, Wilkes county, Dalton, Augusta, and Mont gomery, Alabama.

Van Alstine, Barnesville, Ga.—Dear Sir: On the 2f>th inst., I received one bottle of Jackson’s Balsam as a present. In the evening of the same day I was taken with cramp colic and severe pain in my stomach, for which I have been subject to spells for the last twenty years, and never before have I been able to get any medicine that would re lieve me sooner than twenty-four hoars. I began taking yonr Balsam at 3 o’clock in the evening, and took five doses according to di rections, and bathed my stomach one time at aboat 7 o’clock the same day, and in this fonr hours I was entirely relieved of all pain. Heretofore when I used medicine to relieve the pain, I then had to uso strong cathartics in order to destroy the billions matter. Bat I have not taken any since I took yonr Balsam and my bowels have acted regularly one time daily ever since. I wish you to send me your wholesale f »iice of the Balsam, as I am desirous of hav- og it in my business, as I keep all the popu lar patent medicines. If yon put it but on commission, let me know, and if not, let me know. So you will write me your terms of disposing of the medicine. There is an old gentleman in my town that has been confined to his bed with rheumatism for the last twelve months, and he tried one bottle of tbe Bal sam, and thinks it helped him. If you wish to sell on commission, and establish an agent in this town, let me bear from you. I am, yours respectfully, •ffptli-lt B. C.

Sprncer. corner of Whitehall and Alabama streets, on Tuesday evening next, promptly, at five o’clock. Business of importanc* will come before them. The London Daily Telegraph deals heavy blows in behalf of increasing the means of teaching physics in the British universities. It says: “While mathematics and clasaios, together with mental science, or what passes as such, bring to tbeir devotees remuneration most solid aud immediate, the pursuit of those studies which are the birth of our age, and of which we are proudest, receives scanty assistance. How cau the professor of expel i- mental physics at Oxford give adequate in struction, far less cany ou origiuul investiga tion, when he is expected to cirole the vast realms of mechanics, sound, beat, light, aud electricity? How efib Cambridge rear a school of physiologists when there «gists no ebsir alloted to the subject. until their manufacture was brought to com parative perfection. Now the use of' these pipes in that country is very general, especi ally for house drains. Either kind of pipe requireB skill and faith fulness on the part ot those in charge of the laying of the sewers. The case, however, of judging of the suitableness of a burnt pipe lor a sewer is much greater than in the case of a cement pipe; in lact, it is very difficult, it not impossible, to be certain with regard to the cement pipe, while it is not so with regard to hard-burnt clay. Cement pipes have been slowly disintegrated by certain gases and acids emptied into them, Some very striking instances of this kind oc curred in San Francisco, where urine from privies was discharged into the cement pipes. Nothing of this kind has ever occurred, so far as I can learn, with well-burnt pipes. My opinion is tbat hard-burnt or vitrified clay pipe should be preferred for sewerage purposes to cement pipe, because the much greater certainty of getting a good article of the former than of tho* latter; and in this respect I have the concurrence of several distinguished members of the profession, who have come to their conclusions on the subject after years of observation aud experience. Respectfully submitted, (8igned) E. 8. Chbsdbough, City Engineer. Chief Engineer's Office, Springfield, III, September 5, 1872. J. B. Moulton, City Engineer—Dear Sir: Yours of the 29th nit was received, and I owe you an apology for not answering sooner. In answer to your request for my opinion on the subject of using vitrified glazed stoneware r ipen, as compared to cement pipe, for sewers, will say that, for myself, I should much pre fer the stoneware pipe, as your assertion that the cement pipe is seldom of a uniform tex ture, and is very easily broken, is true, and I don't consider it as safe and durable as the stone pipe. If you have laid much of the ce- meut pipe, I think your experience has taught you that, when the cement pipe is saturated with water, it becomes very brittle and difficult to lay with success; and unless I was laying sewern of very large calibre, where 1 could lay it iu the ground like concrete, I should much prefer the stoneware, as I am satisfied it will be as enduring as time. Will you take the trouble to give me your form of ordinance for esatblinhini’ the grades of your city, and such ideas as you may be willing to suggest Very iaspect!ully, W. D. Clabe.
