The growing importance and sensational character of this city cannot be ignored. LOCAL NOTES. The Nickel Club still shines brightly. Atlanta has one hundred miles of streets. The Beethoven Society is to be re-organized. Good. Eveybody is getting ready to go to the State Fair next week. The temperance people of Atlanta are organ izing for an active winter campaign.

While with Atlanta, Whitfield has not attempted to compete in quantity, yet in the quality of the contributions of her fair women and the products of her brave men, she may dare to compete, and that, too, in a credita ble degree. Floral Hall was filled with the beau tiful, the ornamental and the useful. Here you could easily imagine yourself in the swinging gardens of the East. The paintings were nu merous, and all beautiful and life-like ; and the artistic skill of Mrs. Kenner, whose love for the beautiful shed its brightness over Floral Hall, should not have felt unappreciated in contrast [For The Sunny South.] POLITICS.
