The Macon Firemen—Their Vis-
IT TO ATLANTA.
The occasional interchange of such visits be
tween Fire Companies, as we have" seen in At
lanta since Monday morning, cannot fail to
have a fine effect in every way upon those who
constitute the Companies, and indeed on the
towns themselves, to which they belong. The
Young America,” No. 3, from Macon, arrived
in Atlanta on Monday morning by the half-past
eight o’clock train; over the “Macon & Wes
tern Road.” They were received with a warm
welcome at the Depot by both the Fire Com
panies of this city, and escorted to the Trout
House, where they were entertained in Mr.
Gannon’s best style. In the coarse of the day
most of them were taken charge of by “ our
boys”—and carried over the city—some in
buggies—and some ou horseback. Iu this
way the morning was occupied until between
2 and 3 o’clock in the afternoon, at which time
they commenced preparations to march to the
City Hall, to the scene of friendly contest be
tween them and the companies of Atlanta.
The “Young America,” numbering fifty-six
men, presented a fine appearance, as they
inarched through our streets towards the City
Hall. Preceded by a band that discoursed
music along the route—they were followed by
large numbers to witness the playing of the
respective engines. Here there was a con
siderable concourse present, aud the animation
was almost as great as at a race course, some
contending that Atlanta would beat Macon,
and others that Macon would far out throw
Atlanta. The emulation was friendly, and
just such os all men like to 6ee. The contest
was mainly between our M. F. C. No. 2, and
No. 3, of Macou—No. 1 not putting in any
pretentions with her present engine. With a :
right hearty good will all the boys went to work '
and manned their engines—and no finer set of
men ever playedupoif“mersheen8.” No. 3from
Macon was admirably trained aud organized, !
aud bore themselves gallantly. Both of our j
corps worked their instruments like Trojaus— {
running the things almost 1 * into the ground.” ,
The trial was had and in the perpendicular
throwing our Macou friends were successful,
whileiu the horizontal the Mechanic Fire Com
pany,No. 2, of Atlanta, was the victor, having
thrown between 171 aud 174 feet—the Macon
Company having reached not quite 150 feet. ;
~'o. I was also ahead of the latter.
We feel a great pride iu chronicling the sue*
cess of “our boys” in this noble rivalry, with
out iu thc least disparaging tbe performance
of our visitors. After thc excitement was over,
the companies marched back through the city.
At night a grand entertainment was given at
the City Hall, to the “Young America.”—
Thc inclemency of thc weather, to some ex
tent, interfered with the pleasure of the occa
sion, and prevented several, ourselves among
them, from enjoying a Fireman’s well kuowu
hospitality. Some of our Macon friends, who
are the best authorities on the subject, told us
‘‘they never enjoyed themselves better in their
lives, aud that the firemen of Atlanta were a
most capital band of good fellows. We, of
Atlanta, eau reciprocate the compliment our
guests. It was the unanimous opinion ou all
sides, tliut no handsomer, aud no better be
haved men ever got together on a similar trip,
than Young America, No. 3. We have to tell
our brethren of the Macon Press, that they
not only come up to the endorsement which
was given them through their columns, butthey
far exceeded, it, and Macon may well be proud
of such gallant defenders of their homes and
firesides. It was with great regret that their
visit had to terminate as early as it did. Ou
Tuesday morning they went out to the City
Hall again, and performed alone with their
engine. Returning to the Trout House, after
passing a short, time iu pleasant, social com
munion, they were escorted by our Atlanta
Companies to the depot, and amid loud cheers
on all sides, took tbeir departure at 12 o’clock.
The celebration as above briefly referred to,
will Jong be remembered in our city.

The report of the Chief Engineer and Treas
urer, shewing the condition of tlie above enter
prise. is on our table.—Wo learn from the
former that about forty four miles of the road
arc open, in good order, and well stocked with
locomotives and freight and passenger cars ;
that with the present force and thc augmenta
tion expected during the summer, tho work
ill be pushed forward to Chunennuggee Ridge
by thc first of October next. From that point
to Union Springs the distance is only five and
a half miles, of which, it is considered that two
fifths are already finished, and the remainder
comparatively easy of accomplishment. The
locatiou from Union Springs to Blakely, down
the Couccuh valley, a distance of hundred
and seventy two miles, was completed last May,
and thc opinion of the Engineer, based upon
essimates on thc first 28 miles, is that the
average of work for the whole line does not
exceed ten thousand yards to tbe mile.
From thc report of the Treasurer, it appears
that the liabilities of the company are $34,-
301.69, while their assets amount to $34,683.-
35. These sums, respectively, are changed in
•ttm ndJr. a. nmiln by tbe President to the Stock
holders, in which is taken into account a reduc
tion of liabilities in consequeuce of payments
made thereon since the date of the Treasurer’s
report, and au increase of assets by an amount
in notes aud subscription not in the Treasurer’s
hands. The report, thus amended, would show
an indebtedness of $18,401, and assets amount
ing to $30,533. In the same address, the Presi
dent states,that bonds of this city to the amount
of twenty-four! housand dollars are held by the
company, nnd that, at 00 cents in the dollar, a
sum would be realized therefrom sufficient to
purchase the tcriron and spikes to lay the track

WLED'» SEWING MACHINE maRes equally as
good work on tbe finest fabric or on tbe heaviest
cloth, on either of which tor beauty and durability
it is superior to hand-work. We invite the atten
tion of those who wish machines, to see Weed’s Ma
chine. They are the best for family use, because a-
dapted to all kinds of work. They are the best for
manufacturers, because they make such beautiful
and strong work. They are the best for tailors, be
cause they do better work than his hands.
Extract from a letter written by a gentleman, own-
ing a plantation near New Orleans. Your two Weed’s
Patent Sewing Machines have been in almost con
stant nse since I bought them, and with the best of
practical results. In less than three weeks the two
operators on them finished a complete suit of clothes
for each of uiy two hundred and ten plantation hands,
and I find the time saved in usiog them ono season,
has more than paid their cost.
The Editor of the Zanesville (Ohio) Courier, says:
There has never bet i a Sewing Machine in this city
that has given such unbounded satisfaction to all
who have used it as the Weed’s Patent. We have
examined them, and must confess our admiration
of their simplicity and durability, and can, with per
fect confidence, after an examination of all other Sew-
ing Machines pronounce this to the best, and recom
mend it to our renders, who wish a sewing Machine,
as we are sure it will give them satisfation.

Mr. S. W. Fowls.—Having seen many certifi
cates published in relation to Dr. Witlar’t Balsam
of Wild Cherry, I take this opportunity of offering a
word in its favor, which you are also at liberty to
publish. A few months 6ince, my wife’s lungs he-
came - so much affected by a sudden cold, that she
lost her voice, and suffered severely from pains in the
breast, ner situation caused her triends much alarm.
Having heard the Balsam strongly recommend
ed by those who had used it, I purchased a bottle of
your agent in this place. She took it according to
directions, and it produced a wonderful effect. Be
fore using one bottle, she had completely recovered her
voice, tho pains subsided and her health was soon ful
ly restored. Yours truly.
