Ths Atlanta Phonograph is as bright and shining as a silver dollar. We clip from it this kind word for oar approach ing State Fair. This year tbeStata Agricultural Society intend to make the State Fair, held at Macon, the grandest of all former suo- oesses. It is an institution that ehonld be fostered and enconraged by all of onr people, from the Savannah to the Chatta- hoootoe, at.d from the mountains to the seaboard. Wo are confident that Atlanta -and the earronndisg country will be rep resented by a large number of exhibitors as well as visitors. Our good friends of Macon and Southwest Georgia accuse ns wrongfully when they eay tho North Georgia Fair Aseoclation whs gotten np for the purpose of breaking up the State Fair. Our fair will be a valuable auxil iary to the State Fair, aa many will tes tify last year. • PKonogjrapl\z On the 13th mst., the At lanta Amateur Minstrels think of giving 'a performance at Macon. Satannau’s Rising Frauen.—Mayor Wheaton, on a late visit to Angnsta, gave the following cheering information con cerning the affairs of tho Forst City to a reporter of the Chronicle and Sentinel: We have funded np to this time §2,- 259,090, and the funding is now an as- acred success. A great maoy suits on coupons and bonds have been settled, the parties taking the bonds under compro mise offered by the city. In regard to the payment of the interest on the 5 per cent, bond*, the holder may be alwaya certain of receiving their interest, and the payment of interest may alwaya be regular. In reference to yellow fever, I would state that the sanitary condition of Savannah makes it almost certain that yellow fever will not reaoh ns, bnt of coarse that is in the bands of the A1 mighty; bnt if we did havo the fever the interest on the 5 per cent, bonds would be paid regularly. Tho canse of the decline of bonds in from the fact that, large amounts. of bonds have been bonght by speculators, and being in cot-, ton they have had to force their bonds on the maikeb for sale. I think the bonds cheap and a good purchase; onr &ty is improving. A great deal of bnilding is going on, and real estate is slowly bnt snrely improving. I look forward to a bright and improved future for Savannah. Angnsta people hold about $350,000 of Savannah bond), and nearly all of these have exchanged their 7 per cent, bonds for the new 5’s under the compromise. Savannah holders, without exoeption, have taken me 5 per cent, bonds. Stabbing Atfsult.—Chronicle and Sen tinel i A difficulty oocarred yesterday between one and two o’clock, at the cor ner of Centre and Galhonn street?, be tween Dink Moore and Edward Morris, in the coarse of whion the former .etab- bed the latter in the back with a Urge pooket knife. Ho left the weapon atlok- »ng in the wonnd and walked eff, and it was pnlitd one by some cne who went to Morris’ assistance. The injnry we understand, is considered to be very dan* gerous. « 4 •» Dental Convention.—^Tho Angnsta Evening News says: A joint meeting of the National Dental Association, (late Southern), Georgia State Dental Society North Carolina and Sonth Carolina Den tal Associations, will be held in Angnsta, commencing Jnly 8tn, 1879, and continu ing four days. Tnis, with invited dele gates from oiber Beater, will make one of the largest and moet benefioial sessions of the denial profession eyer held tn ths United Suies. The gathering of experts is expected to be very large, end tte mnal half pay rates over the railroads have been ob tained for the delegates. Ikfauou*.—Clarkeaville Tobacco Leaf: Last Thursday night, some scoundrel en tered the premises of Gen. W. A. Quarles, and, ont of pare meanness, with no other motive than to gratify a hellish spite, cat down a large number of very fine pear and peacn trees, tore down the fences and turned the cattle cn the gar den and corn fields, cat np the top and otherwise defaord the General’s new bug gy, and took off all the taps, and every thing else that could be removed from the old buggy and the wagon, and tore matters up promiscuously. Gen. Quarles wu in Djv-r, attending the Chancory Conrt. AiMoRsTBB.—Dr. J. C. Jones, of Xa- bnn county, vouchee for the troth of the following: In 1876 Mrs; Sarah Cawkins gave birth to a child, or rather a mo*- eter, which is vet living, and becoming more monstrous every day. In some re spects it resembles a human being, but in every other particular it appears to be onr ideal of the wicked one in miniature. At its birth it weighed seven pounds and measured nearly threat fees In length- its body seemed tough and inclined to' be soaly; its limbs long and the muscle racy rigid; the fingers are great olaws cod out oi all preportion with the rest of fche body; the toes on one of its feet are l ong and crooked claws; thacther foot is cloven, resembling that of a sow, except that there is one claw protruding^from the hinder part of the foot. The face sad bead are even more monstrous axad hideous than that part just described. When the child wm only three months ginning to grow; -the hair on the like hog bilstleife and.' along the bone coarse hair is making its appearance; the backbone extends about'thihe inr*— beyond the skoal' length, ttaba for something resembling a tail, i.:Thd atrosity is a male, .

Aa there was no report, it is presumed'the shot was fired from a rifle or pistol, cr possibly from one of those ’'abominable- “Alabama slings.” The bail made a perfect hole through the heavy plate glass witnout shattering it. Whether the 6hot was accidental or in tentional cannot bo said, as it was im possible to find tbe party who fired it, althPngh effirts were made to that end. It is to be hoped that the apprehension of the individual will be accomplished to-day, and that the fall penalty of tbe law will be imposed as on example to others to be more careful. Accident to the Steamship Wyoming. —The Savannah ATewseayc A telegram from JPniladelpbia to Messrs William Hunter & Son, agents, reports the steam- ship Wyoming, which sailed from Phila delphia on the 7th instant,, having put back with a broken shaft.

Save the Shbxp?—The Planter and Grange, a mo3t excellent ag ricultural weekly, publishes a letter from Dr. William B.-Harden, of Smyrna, Cobb we i a good thinf uldhave had credit tot it. - .j j . . z This is straightforward and manly. Dispatch: Dr. Palmer, of New Orleans, left this morning for Charleston. He was qniteTn in Ailhfita, and bia many fneud) here wish him a speedy recovery. Ho'was not called to tike ohafge of the Central Presbyterian, churob, as \vas sup posed. • v-1 ’I'lJJ Adapaha-as a Wood Market.—Berrien oonnty News: We can say, without fear of contradiction, that we have the best wool market in Southern Georgia. We make no exceptions. There is more wool Shipped from Alspaha than any other point in the wool-growing. region, and onr merchants seem to have matters so arranged that they are prepared to pay little more for it than those at other points What is thb Mattes?—Onr esteemed contemporary of the Atlanta Constitution, since it has gone to press in the evening, and is published the next day, pats in an appesranoe at this office only ooctsion ally. Ita visits are like “angel visits, few and far between.” What is .to pay Is it because onr absent associate, Mr. Reese, has failed to respond in kind to its.daily very courteous mention of him We feel at a loss when deprived of the Constitution, and hope to be still permitted to peiuse its newsy colamns from day to dey. The Bloody Ehibt.—Esv. E. Q. Fal ter, of tbe Atlanta Methodist Advocate, (ooL), has been piling on resurrected kn-klnx stories nude ont of whole cloth we suppose for the campaign of 18S0. To this tbe Dispatch objeoted, and oslled for the proof of Its Mnnohausen st.tements. At this the Badioal parson gets mad, and prints the following transparent note, which could.not deosive even Blaine, of Maine • i *, DABMnxx, Ada., May 20.1879. , , James Mitchell, D.D„ Atlanta, Go. —Dzap.'Bbot'hkr: Your favorite is at * .d/and m appliance with yonr request ate upon honor: That Bev.

They had killed them, ripped open their bowels, torn ont their entrails, filled the^oavlties with rock and sand, tied them np with biokozy bark and thrown them into the eddy. He said in deep agony, -‘I never killed one of them, but Ob! my God, I consented tq their death,” and then exclaimed, “ig there any mercy for me.” He said further that tboie murdered men haontkd him day and night. Yonrs trnly. A. S. Lakin, P. E, Dadoville District Central Alabama Conference M. E. Chnrcb. Gbowino Fast.—Dispatch: We heard a manway that he. has some com near his house, and daring the night heard a fuss in it and got up, supposing the coons were in it, bnt found that it was only the eofn growing. ’ Bxv. Db. Nall.—A called meeting of the Macon Presbytery is sitting at Qolom- bus, to consider the application of Dr. Nall for a dissolution of his pastoral rek- tions with the Colambna Presbyterian Chnrcb, with a view to bis accepting the call of tbe Prytania Street Chnrob, Ns 1 Orleans. The commissioners from bis present charge to Presbytery are, sayatha Enquirer-Sun, of Tuesday, Hop. John Peabody, Judge B. ,F. Coleman, L. T. Downing, Esq., and Messrs. J. C. Cook and D. F. Willcox. .The Presbytery will meet at 8:36 o’clook to-night, in the chfarab^when .the whole matter will be laid before the body. Tbe New Orleans ohnroh will be repre sented by commissioners, or . by a com munication advocating their claims. Tbe body has the power to prevent Mr. Nall from going, bnt, on the other band, can not foroe him to accept the call. 1 The representatives of the charity hr New Odeons and those of the Presbyte rian church of onr city will be beard, and probably Mr. Nall will be asked for his views, after which the decision will be rendered. If it ehonld be to allow Mr. Nall to go to New Orleans, the body will then dissolve his relation with tbe chnrch and have each announced from the pul pit. Dr. Nall would be^a great loss to the Presbytery of Macon and the whole State. Another Cathodic Church.—Enfuir. erSun: The Catholics of oar city are meeting with good success in subscrip tions for the new church. They have thus far in three weeks obtained about 5,000, and many are yet to be seen. Tne out siders have not been called upon, though many £ent word to the committee to call for their contribution. One lady, a Pro testant, gave $50. The location of the ehnroh w.ll ba de cided upon by Bishop Gross, and. none now have any idea what hia decision will be. ' K. Narrow Escape op a Ladt.—Savan nah News: About half-past one o’clock yesterday afternoon a lady, whilst in the store of Mr. A, H. Morales, on Congress street, opposite Johnson fiqnare, Jiad a narrow escape from being bit by a rifle ba’l, which came crashing through thi Jane 4th, from which we extract aa fol tows: r? ’*’•-* : “I notice fiom the paperg that tbe dogs have been playing havoc with yonr sheep. They made a raid on me night before. Jast and killed eix and Philadelphia, Jane 10.—Parr, the murderer of his daughter, died this morn ing.

Tbe Times' financial artiole says: At the request of a committee of the Louisi ana bondholders, the Chairman of tbe council of foreign bondholders has sent a protest to the Governor of Louisiana against any attempt of the State Con vention now eitting to reduce the State debt as arranged ander the refanding act of 1874. Bokz, Jane 10.—Fonr soldiers and sev eral civilians have been killed in public disturbances occasioned by tbe collection of taxeB at Balatabiano, Sicily, and troops have gone from Catania to suppress dis orders. The waters of the Biver Po are sub siding, bat the surrounding country is m desolation. Washington, Jane 10.—Tho Spofford- Hcllogg case was resumed. Judge Mer rick, for Judge Sptffwd, said he had no would be here; but preferred not to tell When M Jhey bright be captured. by the other side. , He sho'pld nave some docu mentary -evidence,' but it is net yet pre pared. HI ’ Senator Sanlsbnry, Chairman, said as wounded fifteen. My flock consists,of, it seemed probable that Congress would fifty. My sheep are always penned every aijouraat Alfo end of IJiJe or the com night in a lot at tbe house with the cattle. Oaths night that they were killed, they were in an enclosure of less thatta quar ter of an acre with nine head of cattlfe. So that enclosing cattle with sheep is no protection. I baa always counted largely on this for protecting sheep. Among the slain was the Southdown ram I bought) of yon. He had on a bell, the joply one in the flaok. So the bell. is no proteo tidn. ■My main object in writing to you is .to confer as to what steps to take before the next,Legislatnre, which is to con vene in a few week», as in all probaba- bility it Will pass a dog law in seme shape, as public opinion seem* to be ripe fer it • * * Unless we have some legisla tion on the subject I will abandon the sheep business." Iz is stated that in Cobb connty in the last month not less than 150 eheep were killed by dogs. A Pronounced Pdatfobh.—Sanders- villa Courier: We are emphatically in favor of taking the tax off of quinine, potting a tax on dogs and embodying in the orgwia law of th* State, a danse prohibiting tho mannfaclnre and sale o! intoxicating liquors in Georgia. Bothering the Jury.—Union and Re corder: Daring a recent trial, (not in Bibb connty) antral juror appealed to the court to know “if the lawyers could not be stopped from bothering tbe jary.” He had become bewildered in the mass of technicalities and subtleties with which- -pconxed by goTernmcnt he ought to be the lawyers had apparently myetified tbe oaae, and he entd in anguish cf spirit “Them lawyers oome here on purpose to bother and confuse ns jnrors, don’t they, judge P” “I suppose they do, my friend;” wearily answered his Honor. Monbob County Ahead in Wheat.— Advertiser: This oonnty has lobg been fa mous for Its productions, especially in ■mall grain, bat this year Monroe baa beat herself. Wo have spoken of the enormous yield in oats and also in wheat, but now we oan tell of an acre grown by Mr. John M. Collier which has recently been harvested, and yielded 59 1-2 bush els to the single acre. If asy oonnty in the State can make a better showing than this we say speak ont and here ie the bine ribbon. Bat old Monroe, so long celebrated for its productiveness, we don’t think can be surpassed by any county in the State. We defy this to be buaten even by tbe great grain growing West. Death by Lightning.—Union and Be- carder; A storm passed over Mr. B. Bax ter’s plaoe in Hancock county a few days ago, doing mnch damage to crops, fane ing, etc. Daring tbe storm a bolt of lightning passed down a chimney of a hones on the place, killing one negro woman, and two children and injnring another woman. Scubthing Even Better or : Sahh Sort.—The same paper says: Dr.L. S. Morse has an aore oI i<u.a near his reaidenoe, within the corporate limits of Forsyth, which was sown in oata last faU. The land is low and flat, lying immediately along the railroad. The oold freezes killed ont some of the oats, so that in some places tbe stalks were several feet apart. He ont qnite a number of bandies to feed his oow while the grain was green. Tbe oats fell down badly, eo that it was difficult to cat them. They weie cat with a gram blade, and the man who hazveated them estimated that folly twenty bnebels of oats were left on the ground. In spite of ail these disadvantages the yield pf the aore was one hundred and thirty-seven dnd one-half bushels. This is the largest yield we have ever heard of and is simply astonishing. Wny ehonld anybody say “Young mac, go West.”' Tremendous Wheat Coop.—The Re corder says’: The wheat on the ten acre lot of Mr. Ohannoy Wright, tnrned'ont 347 bushels. We *ould be pleased to bear from onr farmers the result* of their wheat and oat crtips. Send na the returns, and we will cheerfully publish them. Mr. Wright’s wheat would have made a much greater yield than It did, had there not been so muoh stalk. Ths Stalks were nearly six feet in.length. Of course this Inxnriant growth detracted from the size of the heads and diminished the yield very materially. The Nature ot a miracle. A priest, after vainly trying io explain ‘ nature pf a miracle to a doubting Irish- a, suddenly stopped, Jdaked bun, and aaked,'“Did yon feel that?” “Yea," said tbe Irishman. “If yon hadn’t,” resumed the priest, •• it would have been a miracle.” Thus argument sometimes fails' to convince, though every objection be folly answered. Like stntbom are tbe few who yet donbt the efficacy of Dr. Pierce’s family Medicine*. Positive proof of merit has repeatedly been advanced. Testimonials from prominent ci izens in nearly every town in North America have been pnbliahed, certifying to the doctor’* honesty, and superior aaill Why longer doubt? If afflloted with a oold, oough, bronchitis, consumption, or any scrofulous disease or hnmor, Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medici Disoovery will (fleet yonr speedy cure. Give no heed to wnat some nnauooessfnl physician, or healthy and skeptical” neighbor may say Decide for yonreelf. 9- A. Alexander, M. D., of Bsoad- w*y, Va., writes that he has thoroughly tested Dr. Pierce’s Family Medicines in an extensive praotioe, and has fonnd them to poeseta superior merit, and to do all that was claimed for them. He furthea ttys that a copv of the People's Common Sense Medical Adviser should be in every house. Health op the Summer.—The Cin- oianatt Commercial says tho National Board of Health In Washington thick the summer la likely to be haaltby,and sbonld the fever oome the Eastern crop will be more liable to suffer than the Mississippi vallsf. ' ' hext week,' her doubted whether, after adjournment, a quorum of the committee could, be held togother. Therefore it would b8 wall<eo'put in all available testimony by thait time. Judge Shellabarger said several of Kellogg’s witnesses are expected to !mhHow.: 1 Pwtoufcpeite tpydjiy. A It was unanimously agreed by the committed taut the nm'divits heretofore offered to be admitted aa evidence. Merrick said he would pnt in his doc umentary evidence to-morrow. Hill called up tho question of paying Jules Lsveignes hie witness fees. He ob jected to the payment on the ground that the witness had said be bad deliberately and intentionally deceived the parties who enbpcoaaed him. The committee should protect itself and the Senate, and do nothing that would make it conven ient for any man to come here at the ex penee of the Goverenment and impose on somebody by testifying directly con trary to what he may have stated in an affidavit or other form. There shonld be protection from such imposition. Neman remarked that he had never heard of a rale to deny payment of feeB of a witness who had beon-snbpconaed by the Government. .Besides, if pay were refused it would bo said it was for the reason that the witness, denying the truth of hie affidavit, swore to something different. Bailey remarked that v thia witness was evidently a base and bad man and merit ed the penitsntiary; yet having been sub paid. . ' Ingalls said his impression was from the testimony that the witness imposed on Spcffprd’e attorney for the purpose of di9cloeitfg 'a conspiracy, the purpose of which -was to deprive Kellogg pf his sear. If witness had not obeyed the snbpceca he would have been amenable to con tempt. The chairman said the witness having obeyed tbe summons of the committee <»L _ marks were made by other Senators when the question was taken on Hill’s motion that Lsveignes be not paid, and disagreed to—Hill and Vance only voting in the affirmative, and Keraan, Bailey, Cameron and Ingalls in tbe negative. Hoar not being preeent when the disons- sion took place excused himselt from vot ing. The committee adjourned until to morrow. Washington, Jane 10.—In the House Morrison, of Illinois, from the Commit tee on Ways and Means, reported a reso lution providing for the final adjourn ment of Congress at 12 o’olook on Jnno 17tb. Adopted. Harris, of Virgins, asked leave to offer a joint resolution appropriating three thonsand dollars for a monument to mark the birth-place of George Wash' ington. He remarked that the honse of Washington's parents had disappeared, and that nothing remained to ebon to posterity where tbe father of bis oountry was born. The Speaker aeked whether there was any objection to the joint resolution. Garfield replied, “Nono on this side, I am sore.” There was no objection and the joint resolution passed.’ In Senate, at-1:25 p. m. the Iegislt tive, executive and judicial appropriation bill wbb received from the House and re ferred to the committee on appropria tions. The'concurrent resolution providing for adjournment -on Jane 17tb, was also reoeived and referred to the oommittee on appropriation. MaoMahon, of Ohio, re ported baok from the appropriation committee the bill making appropriations for oertain judicial expenses ot government. It was referred to oommittee of the whole and the Honse immediately went into com' rnlttee—ill general debate on the bill be ing limited to forty minutes. In the Senate Mr. Coke moved to take np and consider the resolution discharg ing the Committee on Finanos from fur ther consideration of the Warner Hilver bill, andldedaring it before the Senate for action. Tbe votiog in taking np tbe rOs- olnlien was, yeas 21; nays 22, as follows: Yess, Bailey, Beek, Call, Coke. Davis, of Illinois, Garland .Harris, Hereford, Hill, of Georgia, Houston, Jonss, Me ssy, Pendleton, Sanlsbnry, Slater. Thar- man,- Tance, Vest, Voorhees, Walker and Wallace—21.

Morrill, Platt, Bollina and Sanders—22, The resolution therefore was not taken np. Senators Gordon, William?, Jones, f Nevada, Hampton, Davis, of West Virginia, Cockrell, Grover, Ransom, Ingalls, McDonald, Withers, Morgan, and Johnston, who otherwise would have voted yes, were paired with Anthony, Bell, Blaine, Batter, Windom, Edmunds, Hjmlin, Hoar, Whyte Paddock, McMil lan, Cameron, ot Pennsylvania, and Tel ler, who would have voted nay. Bruce, Farley, Plumb, Bandolph and Saaron were absent and not paired. On motion of Mr. Hill, cf Georgia, Mr. McDonald’* bill authorizing the use of the army and navy at election?, was taken up and post poned till to-morrow, when Mr. Hill will speak thereon. Oa motion of Mr. Voorhees, the Honae joint aecolntion providing for the ereotion of a monument to mark the birth-place of Gc-orge Washington was taken np and passed without a dissenting voice. Oa'motion of Mr. Bayard the Senate then took np tbe bill reported yesterday from the Judiciary Committee for the re moval of the political disabilities of Mr. James F. Harrison, ef Virginia, and after soma remarks by Mr. Beok, it was poseed. Billa were also pae38 for the same pur pose in the eaee of Arthur P. Bsghy, of Texas. Mr. Call introduced a bill establishing an additional land district in Florida, and a life-saving service at Cape Bias, Flori da. Beferred. The Senate then went into executive session, and afterward? adji.urned. Senator Jones, of Florida, stated this afternoon that he voted against taking np Mr. Coke’s reeolation to diseharge the fiosnoe committee from farther con sideration of the Honse sliver bill because after a careful canvass of the votes, he believed the bill would fail to pass the Senate, that ita defeat would be more injntioas to tbe Democratio patty than its postponement for a full coa- sideratioii next December.

It was only an indirect way of doing teiripomily for ono year what Congress could not d& absolutely and permanently. He also criticised tbe olanse prohibiting the Government from incurring liabilities for whioh no appro priations has been speoially made, saying that tbe present laws command the’exec- utiva to perform duties whioh the. bill forbid bim to perform if be thereby inonrsany liabilities. Mr. Garfield was replied' to by ' Mr. MaoMahon, of Ohio, who -said that the Democrats had uniformly voted for the appropriation bills and the Bepnblicans against them. That what the Demo crats desired was to have fair and free elections and to deprive tbe other side o tbe power to put partisans at the polls. Ee said his colleague (Mr. Garfield,) bad got np a new catchword. A while ago members of tho majority wero called “Revolutionists;’? now they are “Nullifi- crs.” The general debate then closed anl the committee proceeded to consider the hill by eections. On motion of Mr. Finley, of Ohio,' an amendment was adopted, providing that the names of ju rors shall be placed in a box by tho clerk andcommsBioner alternately ‘‘without’.re- ference to party affiliations.” Many other amendments were proposed, bnt all re jected or ruled ont. The committee then rose. The bill was reported to the Honse and passed, yeas, 102; nay e. 85; a strict party vote, and the House adjourned.

The cotton acreage fine; fifty-three report from three to twenty-five per cent crease in the acreage. In sixty-three re plies tbe acreage is aboat tho same last year, and in seventeen from three to ten per cent. less. The acreage in crease is two and a half per cent. Eighty- six reports very favorable to the end of May, twenty-two favorable, twenty-five unfavorable, fifteen too mhoh rain, ten too dry, twenty-one too oold, and ninety, two mnch more favorable than last year, thirteen about the same, twenty eight less favorable. The character of the etande is fine; eighty-one reports never better; in foxty-Beven good, five poor, in 82 much butter than last year, in 17 about the same; In 24, not so good.

We have no repliea from many of tbe largest oonnties whioh we have reason to believe will show a large increase in the aoreage, and we think it safe to estimate tbe increase for the State at from eight to ten per cent. The replica indicate less favorable weather than last year.

Labor is represented os good and effioient, al though there seems to be no surplus of laborers. The State has not suffered from tho Kansas exodas. Fertilisers are not rued, In some portions the ootton plant baa suffered from the late oold epeUs,in consequence of whioh the plants are rather email, bnt otherwise healthy. A few oonnties report the plant as suffer ing from lice. At present rain is very muoh needed in nearly all tho counties.

This ha* canted onr reflecting citizens to disease the propriety and feasibility of con structing water works adtqoate to supply every railroad shop, factory, foundry, mann- tsuturing establishment and every house hold in Maootx. as well as keep onr ci-terns full and render unnecessary so many fire engines. The erection of a tank bolding 100,000 gallons of water with pipes properly distributed, would save Maoon between $50 - 000 and 9100,000 per annum in Insurance alone. The percentage would be decreased over one half its preeent rate, and fires would be fewer and certain y lees disastrous in fn- tore. We hear from good authority that the .Gentral Railroad will food begin the erection of water wo>ks for the nse of their railroad shops which wilt cost over $15,000, and that they are more than willing to sob so ibe that amount m stock to a company which will ereot works to heated by the entire oily. If their willing aid is net accepted new, it may never be reoeived hereafter. Let ua not lose the opportunity. They will of course p«y for every gallon of water they nse too, and will use more than any one hnndrod families. The Georgia Bailroad and Macoa A Brttuawiox Bai road authorities would also doubtless contribute liberally, as would onr factories, fenedaries, stores, note a, bathing an) barber shops, printing booses, saloons, livery stables, and ths city itself.
