said when be was a young man Atlanta was
a poor black jack ridge, and he frequently
gathered piue knots there and hauled them
to Decatur. He had killed ft x-squirrels
where the artesian well now stands, and
helped to hew the logs that built the first
bouse in the city. “Why, sir, I was offered
a lot of land that covers
the ground where the Kimball
house now stands for a tine horse I
had. but being a young man I didn’t want
land, eapecially as poor as that was I
owned property upon Peachtree street at
one time that is uow worth probably $500,-
000, while my farm on the Chattahoo
chee is not worth more uow than it was the
day I bought it. I look around the city
now and find men who were as poor as I
was then, but uow they count their wealth
by the hundreds of thousands, and they
made it by simply holding on to their prop
erty,”

days—less than ltX) nours— saw the delis
again full of plants, and as the rain has
been good sinoe the cold wave all vegetation
is smiling, and so are the truckers. At

Jacksonville Metropolis: Between 4 and
5 o’clock Friday afternoon a brutal fight
took place on the Clyde steamship dock and
was witnessed by a large crowd. From an
eye witness the Metropolis le-.ros the fol
lowing : Avery homely negro man, with
distorted feature*, employed as a deck hand
on the steamboat Everglade, was guyed
and ridiculed by sorno of his fellow work
men as to his ugly features. He did not at
first seem to care for it, but every once in
a while someone of the negroes working
on the dock would get off a witty remark,
at which there would be a general
laugh. One young fellow seemed to
enjoy the tun more than tha others, and
laughed heartily. The deck hand suddenly
got into a rage and pounced upon the
laughing fellow, and administered to him a
severe punishmout. The deck hand used
what is known os a cotton or freight hand
lers hook w ith fearful effect, applviDg the
point of it to the head and face of the man
who laughed. Our iuformant says at every
blow th blood would spurt from the negro’s
head, and soon his head and face was a
fearful sight made by tho cuts and pricks
of the hook. The wounded mau begged for
help, and finally the brute, who was hack
ing him to pieces, was knocked down with a
stick of wood iu the hauds of another
colored man. The wounded man was taken
to a doctor, and the deok hand went
aboard of the Everglade and proceeded up
the river unmolested. No policemen or
arrests.

The stock market to-day was the dullest we
l ave had in a loug time, and us a rule fluctua
tions were on strict parity with the amount of
business done, so that the final changes, while
generally advances, are for insignificant frac
tions only. 111 railroad stocks the dealings still
retained their irofessional character, wni-h
they have had for some time, und no signifi
cance may be attached to tbe trading. No stock
made any movement of importance, and In no
stock were the sales ns much as 9.0T0 shares,
which, after tbe rotivity and wide movements
wo have had, sufficiently shows the waning in
terest in the market on tbe part of the specula
tors. The only feature whatever was the in
dustrials, and Sugar still selt the effect of the
proposed now issue cf stock, further retiring
from 80 to 78 %. and closing only 4 per cent,
higher than the lowest figures. Cordage stocks
were strong and pro’erred rose over 1 par cent.,
but Chicago (ias was neglected and Distillers
was treated in the sains way. The market
opened higher and further improved during the
first hour of business, but the gains were not

Hubbard, Price & Co.’s cotton circular says:
‘‘The statistical situation, as made up by tbe
' inancial chronicle this morning, shows that
there have come in sight during the ween 204,000
bales of cotton, against 194,000 bales last year.
Tins excess of 20,000 bales n the total move
ment, in combination with the crop estimate of
E. T. Wilson <& Cos., induced a decline of 5-64d
in • iverpool this morning and a decline of abjut
10 points in our market at the opening. By 11
o'clock a slight recovery had been effected, but
tho trading is narrow, and it cannot bo denied
that the week’s developments have in some de
gree shaken the confidence of those who believe
in a crop of under 8,500,000 bales and the prob
ability of an advance in consequence. For the
immediate future the port receipts and the
quantity of cotton daily making its appearance
will unquestionably be tlia controlling influence.
After :i o’clock the market continued dull,
easiug away slightly toward the cl*>se. Such
changes iu prices as have been established are
without special significance. If foreign markets
show any confidence in cotton at these prices,
it seems reasonable to assume that we shall see
response to a continuation of the light move
ment that side of the water.”
