THE GEORGIA CAPITAL. Notwithstanding the metropolitan or National charac ter of The 8unny South, we are compelled to have a de partment for local notice*. The growing importance and senaatioDal character of this city cannot be ignored. LOCAL NOTES. The “Y. M. L. A.” propose giving a centen nial party soon. C. H. Strong & Co. will soon have their cotton ; compress in operation. There will be a large gathering of Baptists j here on the 2d of November. Cotton is arriving freely, and a better feeling j prevails in commercial circles. The Middle Georgia Fair, which has jnst closed, is pronounced a grand success. S. M. Inman had 100 bales of cotton burned up on the Air-Line railroad a few days ago. Col. G. T. Fry delivered an address before the Knights of Pythias on Tuesday night. The Knights of the Golden Rule will have a grand ball on the 20th instant at James’ Hall. I Peanuts and chestnuts are parched here by : steam furnished by a miniature steam engine. The United States Court is in session, with : Hon. W. B. Woods and John Erskine judges. Atlanta has produced a savan, in Prof. B. F. Moses, who discovered a “mirror in the moon.” A mother administered morphine by mistake ; to her sick child, and it resulted in the death of j her babe. Hon. John H. James was addressed at the Georgia Baptist Association, as “Rev. C. H. | Strickland.” The annual municipal cauldron begins to boil 1 and bubble, and candidates are springing up like mushroons. j Dm, 8. B. Innis, who at one time gave vapor j baths here, is interested in a suit in Canada in- I volving $14,000,000. Miss Josephine Bishop, of the Constitution j bindery, is said to fold equal to a machine—five ( or six sheets per minute. Sanford Bell, of the State Road, is one of the t oldest conductors in the South. He is the in- | ventor of the Bell punch. The Concert of Prayer for the conversion of the Sunduy school children of the world was generally observed in Georgia on the 17th and 18th. The State Fair at Macon is now attended by thousands of visitors from all parts of the coun try. Among them are many of the nation’s leuders. The American Shovel Company have written to their agents here, Tommy, Stewart A Beck, for information, contemplating removing here with their works. The Board of Trade has invited Mr. TLos. Scott, of Pennsylvania Central Railroad, to come < to Atlanta and tell what he knows about the Southern Pacific llailrond. The Fourth Ward Democratic Club met at the Chamber of Commerce Tuesday night. No re commendations as to the manner of making ward nominations were made. Richard Shumate, son of Rev. R. M. C. Shu mate, was run over and killed by a train on the Port Royal railroad in Augusta a few days ago. He is a native, we believe, of Atlanta. Atlanta is putting on city airs in more ways than one. on the streets. She comes all the way from France to save souls and to sell a few books. Works, of Art.—We have just received a very fine drawing of the Rui&||of tlie 'Saint .John s and Saint Finbar's CutL"-. ..'ral in Charleston, which we will notice at more length next week; also an exceedingly graceful, ideal drawing from our fair young contributor, Sylvia Hope. Lynch, the Tailob.—They were a couple of Texas lioosiers just arrived in the city of rail roads, and were swaggering up Whitehall, each with a quid in his cheek, one of them over the sidewalk, mind of old Texas ? * Lynch Don't you see old schoolmaster Smart told whopper, when he said lynch law was done away with down in Georgy ? That thar shows yer. Lynch the tailor! Wall, I wonder what the fel low done; stole somebody’s goose, I reckon.” * Fruits and Flowers.—Coming in, fresh from the frosty air and the sight of the red and yel low reminders of autumn that streak the forest Third—If 12 oxen eat 3ij acres in 4 weeks, how ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. many will be required to eat 45 acres in 18 weeks ?

Carrie Bell, of Fincastle, Va., wishes to cor respond with Eddie of Fort Valley, Ga., and Francis Lovejoy, of South Carolina. Kate, of Gumming, and Mary (»., of Marietta, give fine descriptions of themselves, and think they will till Paul Jones’ bill exactly. A. B., Griffin, asks: “Can you tell me author of the oft-quoted line, ‘ He tempers the wind to the shorn lamb?’ Also, where it can be found?” . . . Sterne is the author of the line in question. Anderson P., Cassville. — The best way to Johnny.—Mother, what yer think ? Mother.—J don’t know, my son ; what is it? Johnny.— Well, don’t yer think that gal Susan Jane turned up her nose at mejes’ now, ’cause she had on a pull-lark and a new hat ? Mother.—Oh, 1 guess you’re mistaken, Johnny.

A Puzzle, A puzzle composed of eight monosyllables, containing twenty-eight letters, twenty-two of which are discarded because they are used more than once. The other six represent the follow ing numbers, respectively : P No 1, R No. 10, B No. 13, H No. lit, C No. 22, M No. 24. Fill up the other 22 numbers with letters correctly placed, and my whole will be a piece of good advice which all ought to follow. CHAT WITH CONTRIBUTORS. Our Contributors—We can certainly pride our- and boots, assume a bold front, and solicit an interview with the young ladies. You’ll find that they are not at all dangerous. T. M., Richmond, says: “A young friend and myself had a controversy in regard to the expression, ‘A looker-on in Vienna.’ He con tends the italicised word should be Venice. As we could not agree on the question, we propose to submit it to yon, and abide your decision.” . . . “A looker-on in Vienna" is the correct quotation. The line occurs in Sliakspeare’s “Two Gentlemen of Verona.” Eastman. Columbus, Ga., says: “Settle A little dispute I had with a friend concerning steel pens. Are they or are they not made by ma chinery? I contend they are.” . . . Yon are only half right. With the help of an ingenious and almost automatic apparatus, a steel pen goes through from fifteen to twenty-five different pairs of hands in its progress from the long strip of steel to the paper box in which it leaves the factory. Sterling asks: “ Is not our trade with China, via the line of Pacific steamers, an immense one?" We regret to say it is not. With all our advan tages, we receive but ten per cent, of the foreign trade of the rich Chinese empire. England re ceives seventy-five per cent.

STATE AX'D NATIONAL. BY A LIVE POLITICIAN. The success of Hayes in Ohio has cooked Gen. Grant's political goose. He's a dead cock in the pit. Grant has more strength than any other one Republican; yet, the party does not want him. Therefore, the success of Hayes will give the party confidence enough in its strength to risk a race on some other man. A good many of the Republicans honestly dislike the third term precedent Grant's re-election will set, while oth ers f» ar its effect before the people. So the co alition between hard-money and Radicalism has effectually shelved Mr. Grant. Thank God for j small favors. If a few men had all the horses in the United States, those men would be opposed to the im portation of more horses, because it might les sen the value of theirs; and if not that, it would create a competition in the trade of horses. Now, the Northern and Eastern people have all the greenback money; theretore, they wish to prevent the issue of more; and go further, and The latest is having a female preacher raise the standard of their grei nback dollars by " " " making them convertible into coin, which is of more value. This may not haim the rich, but ENIGMAS. Attention, Enigma-Maker*. We call the special attention of those who favor us with enigmas to the following letter, and beg them to be more particular in future. We have not the time to work out the enigmas, to see if they are correct, and must therefore rely upon those who send them in. Mistakes are annoying to those who work them: “Sunny South,—I have thought for sometime I would ‘ take you to task' for the mistakes in your enigmas. They are hnrd enough to solve when they are ‘all right;’ but when the words are misspelled and some of the numbers left out, is a fellow to know when they are right,— or rather, how is he to get them right ? Some time ago, I came across one that looked interesting, and thought 1 would work for the answer. It contained twenty-four letters, and the only thing l I could get to ‘fit' was, ‘Subscribe to The Sunny South.' In due time the answer came; it was, j ‘Subscribe for The Sunny South.’ Now, how can you or any one else spell ‘ Subscribe for The ; Sunny South’ with twenty-four letters? When your last issue reached me, I thought ‘ Enigma No. 14’ looked exceedingly interesting, and set i to work on it immediately.

Public opinion has^ver run * , and poems are all marked by the thoughtful, modest, yet earnest and feeling character, which is the Southern type. Read our sprightly “Let ters”. They almost obviate the necessity of any regular Criticisms on new books or periodicals, or chnt concerning fashions; and they give graphic glimpses into those ever-changing kalei doscopes, the metropolitan centres, both North and South. Mrs. inquires: “Who is your pleasant Letter-writer, ‘Flora Belle?’ And will yon not ask her to give ns a description of the Martha Washington tea parties, so frequently spoken of in the papers, that we ‘Provincials’ may know what they are?” Flora Belle is the nomine de plume of an accomplished young lady of New Orleans, who, as she has the entree to the best fashiona ble Circles, can very probably give you all de sired information concerning the Martha Wash ington tea party. Alice, a school-girl, sends us her “first story” for publication. First stories, like first attempts of all kinds, are apt to be failures. Even genius flutters rather than flies at a first trial of its wings. Charlotte Bronte's “Professor” was rather a poor affair, and Miss Evans’ “Inez" was scarcely worthy being the “shadow cast before” “Beulah.” Alice wishes to know why we do not have more stories. We could not have more without crowding out other admirable reading matter which tills our journal the essays, lively and grave; the scientific, political and news mat- h interest other classes of readers. ally. J. Z. Moore, Warrior Stand, says: “I have a copy of the ‘Phonographic Teacher,’ by E. Webster, revised by Andrew J. Graham, and would like for you to explain to me how to go about learning the alphabet on the twenty-third page of said book. Please explain. I am very anxious to learn the method of ‘short-hand.”’ . . . The alphabet mentioned (we take it, not having the book at hand) refers to the conso nant stems, or signs. These can be best learned by writing them repeatedly until the name in stantly suggests the form to the writer. It is important to have these signs at instant com mand. Carl, of Augusta, writes: “I think I have ar tistic talent. What must I do to improve it? I am too poor to go abroad.” . . . Study the best pictures you have access to, and compare them with nature. Make nature your closet-study, and observe her in every detail. A knowledge of anatomy is also indispensable to an artist. If you have real talenf. it will push its way up to the light. You ask, “Can I make the profes sion of an artist a paying one?” Yes, if yon achieve proficiency. If j’ou never succeed in painting grand pictures and growing rich by their sale, yon can always obtain a modest com petency by illustrating books and periodicals, or elaborating designs for manufactures. - ¥~’ in waves. It may be possible, but it is not prob able, that Radical hard-money men may attempt to restore specie payment. If such madness and folly will only take hold of that party during the next Congress, there will be an easy time in An Old Bachelor.' Mrs. J. A.

A note lying a-top the graceful gift tells us that it is from onr esteemed friend Mrs. Steven Smith, of West End. The pomegranates were sent her from Newnan, where they grew in the garden of the learned rency, w hen, ns a matter of fact, their <ffort was to prevent the Republicans and hard-money men from contracting it. It is possible for the country to survive the present status of the cur rency question, but contraction means ruin, ab solute and unequivocal. That is what Demo crats mostly desire to prevent. o some like “Alice, a school-girl,” may « ant j) get yvtrr enigma- prefer all stories. Anna, of Milledgeville, asks: “What has be come of those two tine female poets, Sallie M. Brynn and Mollie E.

Was Sallie Bryan a connection of yours? Your last names are the same, and your genius always seemed to me to be akin.” . . . She is no connection, and we do not know her present whereabouts. Mollie Moore is now Mrs. Davis, and has a home in Virginia, “at the foot of the Blue Ridge (so writes our mutual friend, Mrs. Darden, of Texas), where she is re alizing her fnirest dreams of married happiness.” j She writes to Mrs. Darden that “it seems so strange to find myself climbing, as I suppose it does to all of us Texans, who yet glory in the expansiveness and freedom suggested by our wide-spreading prairies.” ADVERTISEMENTS. 5, 6 and 7, in No. 18; Mrs. Jennie Butler, of the same place, solves No. 8, in same; A.

SPEIGLE, At last, Stanley, the New York lferaUVs ex plorer and correspondent, has reached, with his party, after almost incredible hardships, the Vic toria Nyanza by a new route, and further progress will be through an entirely unknown country to the civilized world and- among people whose strange appearance, as reported to Stanley, might even seem to furnish the connecting link that the Darwinists only need. Wonderful tales are told him of countries on the shore of the lake where he is,—that one is peopled with dwarfs, another has a breed of dogs so large that even his mastiffs are small compared with them. In one part of his route he found unmistakable ev idences that the land was at one time the bed of a vast sea. His means of traveling the lake Vic toria. con -erning whose extent nothing is known, is by the Lady Alice, a large boat which has been carried by his attendants in sections, and with which he hopes soon to start on his exploring this untried sheet of wuter. The defeat of Allen by Hayes in Ohio, makes the latter a Radical hero. He now walks into the ring of presidential candidates to contest with Morton, Blaine, Conkling & Co. While it was Eastern money and not Hayes who won the battle, at the same time, people who never look beneath the surface will give Hayes the credit for it. So the world moves. Shakbpeare’s “ Merchant of Venice ” has lately been translated into Tamil by V. VanoogajK.la Charyar, B. A., of the Madras University, now a merchant in Madras, and a copy of the book has presented to the Birmingham Shakapeare Library. The coarse of Senator Thnrman in hobnobbing with the BadicalB over the hard-money plank in the Ohio platform, ought to place him out of the pale of Democratic aspirants for the Presi dency. He is too much in sympathy with the bond-holders for the tax-payers of the United States. The rigors of the winter are now in the near future, and the thousands upon thousands of the poor who will shiver with cold and cry for bread, are eloquent advocates for a Democratic Presi dent next year.

We understand that it is very fashionable for ladies to use peach kernels for flavoring custards and preserves. There is much more risk at tending the former than the latter, as custards are eaten at once, before the prussic acid has been dissipated into its basic element. Preserves are generally kept for a time, and thus lose their poisonous equalities. Some seasons develop more of the noxious principles in fruits than others, and some varieties of peaches and cherries have more of them than others.
