a regard to a leasehold interest, snd involves the
iooation as to whether said interest passes into the

The property was leased O’Dowd Irom Slil.y, but i

I THE RESULT OF* LAST NIGHTS
MEETING.
| The Hecaj.d having agreed to abide the
j action of ibe mass meeting held last night,
advises tlint every citizen take part in the
coming nomination, and that a ticket be re-
; solved upon which will reflect sorno credit to
the city. At tho same time we mast say
frankly that the compromise adopted
does not impress itself favorably upon
onr Blinds. In oar opinion it
adds seven fold to the evils of
tho ward nominations, and opens the door to
a viler prostitution of tho elective franchise
than ever before. Instead of little lings of
politicians running tbc political machinery,
vre are not unlikely to have a system of “re
peating” instituted, which will paralyze the
efforts of honest men and thrust upon tho
Democracy of the city men unfit to hold of
fice.
We give to the gentlemen who proposed
COL. SPAllCEirS RECENT SPEECH.
Col. 8. B. Spencer informs us that we did
him injustice ia an editorial which appeared
in the Herald of Wednesday. Ila states that
bis allusions to rich and poor were merely in
reply to tho remarks of another speaker who
intimated that the property-holders ought to
control the nominations. We did not enter
the hall until after this speech was delivered,
hence we must be excused for not knowing
that Colonel Spencer was re
plying to tome one. Under the
circumstances, therefore, B it would appear that
wo have unintentionally dune him great injus
tice, the which wo regret. We also desire to
state that we hold ns quite uncalled tot any
remarks as to tho right of property holders to
control nominations or election?. They have
not any such right. It is the theory of oar
form of government that every voter exercises
an equal force with the other voters, and no
questions of wealth and class should bo raised
tuo compromise full credit for honesty of pur- , j n the exercise of tho prerogatives of the citi
po3c and for an earnest desire to restore har- zeU3#
mony. But in the interests of that political
morality—that aristocracy of honesty end of
capacity for which wo have contended, we do
express onr disapprobation with the results
oi the meeting held last night. We have
struggled for reform with no other object in
view than to benefit Atlanta. Whatever
credit 111,13’ be due tho Herald for having at

Wo are not wedded to the delegate system
because we believe it an absolute safeguard
against corruption. It also can bo made an
engine of wrong doing and of intrigue; but
we insist that it is the system which offers
fewer possibilities for rings and intrigues, and
have supported it.

THE WARD IIIXG3 '.MllPPriO.
The meeting last night gave the Herald
First, we have opposed from the start Ward
nominations. We held that a nomination
I made by a handful of men in a single ward
j should not bind the mass of the people of
i this great city; but that the citizens of every
! ward should have the right to say who shall
j bo nominated from pny other ward,
j This point . rc considered essential to
; good government, and were determined to
; fight it to the la»t. It was abolished last
j night by a largo majority, and the demina-
will be pledged to elect them to policemen’s
places.
The second clause will enforce absolute
discipline in the force, because the commis
sioners wil not hesitate to peremptorily dis- I
miss a policeman who violates Lis instruc
tions, as the policeman can in no. way influ
ence his re-election,and he is absolutely inde-
pe dent of his influence. Iu short, tor we
have no time to elaborate, we • lit tbe
officers who will elect and govern the po
licemen to be entirely independent of
their electioneering influence. When that
is done, and the policemen* will cea^e
interfering so actively iu city elections
wc may’ have quieter times, aud more orderly
nominations. One cf the fundamental rules
by which these Commissioners should govern
the police, should bo that every policeman,
when he has donned his'uniform and assumed
official duties, should eschew politics and at
tend to what the city pays him to attend to.
This relorm is badly needed, and the peo
ple are determined to have it.

The secoud point was, that next Saturday, i
tbe lltb, was too early for the nomination,
and that it would not allow a fair expression
of opinion. The nomination was postponed
Ly a Large vote to the 25th. So, that Ward
nominations being abolished, and the nomi-
cations being postponed to a reasonably dis
tant time, we consider about all the points
won that we were contending for
As to the vole upon the delegate system, we
shall postpone onr opinion of tnat until we
have had time to investigate tho charges ot
fraud, which were publicly brought against
the party that was declared the winner.
We believe that a good ticket can be nomi
nated by tbc system proposed, if the citizens
will turn out and try to do it.
And there is one thing that may as well be
understood now as at any other time: tho
people have fully awakened to a responsi
bility of the dangers that professional politi
cians have brought upon them, and they are
determined to nominate and elect men of ex
perience, of prudence, and of integrity.
In another column wo publish an editorial,
showing what was gained bv the friends of
reform lost night. It is not onr purpose to
come into conflict v;ith the views therein ex-
presed. Wo, too, believe that it’ (he men
who have sustained us in our sliuggle for tho
delegate sylem, will woik vigorously, and cr-
ganize at or.ee, they will even yet succeed in
defeating the men who have for years ruled
tho Democracy of Atlanta with but little re
gard to the better interests of the commanity.
But onr purpose in this article is to give
bluntly and frankly our honest opinions as to
the ultimate effect of what was done lust night,
and to disavow now any responsibility for
whatever lamenlabla consorjr.ences may fol-
i ivv. We shall adhere to onr compact and
abstain from any opposition to the ticket
nominated on the 25th inst. Wc shall do
our pait in urging all the citizens to take part
in tho nomination. We shall also keep a
close watch on the day o f nomination against
fraud and corruption, and wo may also pre
sent to the people a ticket composed of men
we believe best qualified to govern tho city.
If it is beaten in tbe nomination wc shall
have nothing more to say; and be the nomi
nees as bad and as ill-qualified as they may,
wo shall leave to others the ungrateful task of
opposing them.
H iving said this much, we dismiss the sub
ject of the delegate. system and everything
associated with it. Oar last say lias been
said; our last protest entered for tho present.
A HIGH COMPLIMENT.
O.ir pigeon holes arc filled with compli
mentary notices of the Herald, but wo
Experiments with Steel.—Experiments
have for some time been going on in Austria,
with a view to the employment of Bessemer
steel for artillery purpose?. When casting,
the melteu steel is, by means of hydraulic
power, stil jected to a pressure of tlm 0 hun
dred and titty tons, the effect of which is to
cause tho air-holes, or pores, in the external
parts of the mass of steel to move towards
aud accumulate ia (he centre of the casting,
where they do not effect llic strength cf the
cannon, since they are eliminated in the act
of boaring out the calibre.
A simple method is now proposed by a
Quebec inventor, for treating pulverized iron
ores, or metalic iron, in the form of fragments,
clippings, etc., with an admixture of pow
dered graphite, anthracite, charcoal, coal or
coke, in definite proportions in a Siemens
regenerative, or other furnace heated by gas,
so as to produce cast-steel of any desired
quality, at ouo operation. The materials
must bo free from all impurity, and in a state
of fine powder. If melted in a furnace, the
charge may, if necessary, bo covered with a
flux of glass, or blast furnace slug, free lrom
sulphur, or with slabs of soapstone, tiles, etc.
But no covering, of this or any other kind, is
said to bo required when gas furnaces are
employed in which a neutral flame can be
obtained.
Warning to Husbands.—Mrs. Enoch Hill,
of Worcester, Mass., is evi kntly a business
woman. She had entered into a life partner
ship with Mr. Enoch Hill a long time
and tho couple were respectable, industrious
and thrifty. Their friends knew of no un- j
pleasantness between them that was likely to j
bring about a dissolution of partnership. Mr. j
and Mrs. Enoch liiii went out for a walk one |
Sunday lately, and it appears quarrelled on '
tbc way. Nobody knows what they qnar- j
n il. <1 about, or which got the better
of tho other in the discussion. All
that h known is that on tn* ir re
turn from tho walk, when they had ar
rived almost in front of their own door. Mrs.
Hill asked Mr. Hill to hold her sunshade for
a minute. He took it, and she (hen asked
him to kiss her aud bo friends, lie agreed,
and while this sign of reconciliation was
making, tbe woman put her hand in her
pocket, took therefrom a 'pistol and fired it
into tho man’s side. Tho ball entered the
lung and could not be reached by tho sur
geons. It will doubtless cause his death.
Hill’s fate is a warning to all husbands when
they quarrel with their wives not to be too
eager to make it up.
