Prominent Democrats auionf* the guests ut Deer Park profess no tmeasu ness at what they term the characteristic ally loud bragging of the Blaiue managers that they will capture the State, and insist that all the money spent by Elkins, Joues and others in West Virginia will leave so much less to combat in other and really doubtful States.

[SPECIAL COBRESPQFDEifQR.J Atlanta, August 1.—Since tbs great fight of Wednesday the political situation here is quiet and serene. The result of the election seems to have given satisfaction over the State, and as for Atlanta, at this writing, it is uniformly for Hammond. There is no talk of any further opposition from any source for the nomination, neither is there any intimation of an Inde pendent candidate, while the party is united and harmonious, and feels as though It would like the chance to rise up in its might and sit down very heavily upon any candidate who might be venture some and vainglorious enough to run in opposition to the regulov nominee. There seems to be a very general feeling of satis faction that a bitter and hotly-contested fight is ended and the campaign in the dis trict practically e nded. The differences between the contending elements are rap idly disappearing, and the party in the Fifth is apt to present a solid front in No vember. ARMY officers. While Atlanta has failed for the present in her efferts to secure the permanent lo cation of government barracks here, she will still have some faint reminder of the trappings of war in the presence here of a prominent army officer.
