'&• Matter Under Investigation--What It Amounts to—important Pro* ceedings—A Harvest of Crim inals—The Legislature. {special CORRESPONDENCE.} ./ Atlanta, October ll.-A greet deal lias been laid about the corruption and frauds existing la the city government of Atlanta, and very damaging disclosures hare been promised the public. The public is now engaged in watch ing tin} performances of the city fathers in the investigations now In progress. The city fathers hare, In council assembled, been glar- teg let each other lor several days, criminating ggA recriminating. Bo far, however, to the outsider, It appears to be a matter of mole hllli dad mares' nests. \ The alleged corruption under Tve ligation relates to matters so small and in /gome Instances so ridiculous, that the whole / affair Is taking on the appearance of a farce, ft is amusing rasher than serious and proa lias to rsault in nothing. If there Is corrup tion or Jobbery in tbo city government t be of a different character and of larger “ pad. if proportions than anything now developed. If such exists, the public ought to know it, are entitled to know it. and the Investigation ought to take that turn if there Is anything to base it upon. It would seem to be a very good time for the citizens' reform ticket to put / In and indicate Just what they propose v> re* i t jria, and if they allege corruption in the city } government to expose it while the ball is in / motion. All good citizens ought to bo on the • '•■form, and will heartily favor a move-. meat to torn the rascals out.

The city council yesterday had a very Inter esting and In some respects an Important ses sion. An ordinance was adopted establish ing the rate of speed at which drayi shall be driven' within the city limits. After N >vember 1st they are not to move faster than a walk. As it is not the usual thing for draws to Indulge In walking, either within or without the city, limits, the speod doubtless refers to that of the animals whose business It Is to pull drays about town. After November, therefore, the drays will present quite a lively and exhilarating appearance. It Is perhaps fortunate, In view of the general effect. Hint it has not been the custom to paiut these vehicles of.burdcn black. A more Important matter was a resolution appointing a committee con sisting of three members of council and three Cltlsens of Atlanta, not members, to coufcr as to a proper system of sewerage and to devise ways and means to perfect the same. It can not be disguised or controverted that this has oome tq be the great problem, and the fut re of Atlanta depends lu a large measure upon its successful solution. 1 have heard it intimated that this will be made an important issue in the next municipal contest, Thq sewerage system and the water works system, the Im provement of each, ought to be made an lssuo in every municipal contest until the question is settled fu the interest of good wa- ter.an abundance of it, an adequate sewerage, ana couscqucutly In the health of a Urge aud growing city. 1 know of no question here of more vital Interest to the people of Atlanta more vital Interest to the people of Atlanta than this, and it Is one of snch magnitude and of auch increasing Importance, that they will i to sooner or later look after themselves. mate cost, however great it may be.

THE HOME OF TROU* A Visit to Valdosta, Whero Cov. Troup Lived and Died. Dublin, Ojtober 8.—But little li known abroad, as nothing has been written, of Valdosta, the old home of an ex-Qovernor and a noted Georgian, George M. Troup. Situated about seven miles from this place and near the Oconee river and upon a gradually sloping elevation, higher by several feet than the surrounding country, is Valdosta, the home of one of Geor gia’s greatest men. The visitor or the traveler would never guess that the lone log house standing out in bold relief upon this cone-shaped hill, was all that Temaiued of the habitation of one who had held the highest position in the councils of a nation; and when he is informed that this solitary structure, iu all of its roughness, was once the "grand room.” the “ladies’ parlor,” the room In which Cupid bent his bow and thrust ar rows plucked from the quiver of the beau tiful Grille Troup, afterwards Mrs. Dr. Vigal, he wonld, ns I did, marvel, and doubts would crowd themselvos upon his brain. As you approach this historic spot, there are— "No storied windows dlght. Casting a dim or blazing light.” The mound on which the bouse stood S ves one a grand landscape view. Espec- Ity was I impressed with the magnificence of the scenery revealed from the south,east and amitliweit. The lands from the toot gradually taper downward for two or more leagues and then as gradually an elevation begins, and as far as the eye can reach, far over in Montgomery county, it is feasted to its fullest When Ivisiied this spot it was at that hour when the imagination it given play to retrospection, and perhaps the beauty of surroundings are heightened. One of the most gorgeous of sunsets lent its presence, and I could almost imagine that the king of day himself preferred to linger awhile to cast his eye of molten fire upon Valiosti and contemplate the quietude of its surroundings. The build- iug, it cannot be termed a mansion, was not as I have said and as some might suppose an imposing structure, but they might be equally surprised to know that Governor Tfnnn'* hnmppnn«i,li>,!nf nnm»rmi«small Campbell—Uvl Ball.pl.

Troop’. home consisted of nameroussmall log lmta tnrown together. None ol the apartments were ever celled or plastered, except one. and this was the "grand room." It is a fact worthy of repealing —that the master and lord of Valdosta ab horred a plank or brick house. He liked free and fresh and plenty of nun ventila tion, and therefore preferred the common jriajntoj; cabin to the blgh-gsbled roof an J r The hospitality of Valdosta was Us characteristic feature. Its doors were never closed against the poor and needy, the elc* or weary, but they con.- stantly stood ajar. Notwithstanding ita proprietor was called an aristocrat—the humblest found a hearty welcomo await ing at Valdosta. Of the once proud and umbrageous trees, with prolific foliage that clustered and hovered near, all are gone, save one lone wild olive, and this, all oorsred with long draping gray moss, dropping down in long lestoom, BAPTIST ASSOCIATION. FILLING UP THI DOCKET Interesting ka.rolees of the First Day Addresses, Kto WarntwoTOK Oa., October 0,—The Baptist Association met this mom log et0:30 and was called to order by Dr. P. H. Mell, moderator. Beligions exer cises were conducted by Bev, J. H. Kil Patrick, of White Plains. A very Interest ing letter was read to the association from Rev Jesse Campbell, of Columbus, Oa., in which he expressed bis regrets at not being able to attend the association on ac count of ill health, Ur.

M..Armstrong, long a dis tinguished and honored cltlxen of our county, bat no. deceased. After this Bev. 8. O. Hlllyer, D. D„ pastor of the Beptlet church at this place, deliv ered a most excellent address upon "The work ol the association (or the past hun dred years.” At the dote of Dr. Hlllyer'a address Dr. J. L M. Curry, of Virginia. was Introduced to the association and R ve a very intereating talk. After prayer Dr. U. B. Wharton, the association ad- ) lamed lor dinner. The meeting was called to order by the moderator at 2:30 o'clock. Afier singing, prayer was offered by Rev. J. H. DeVotie. The association then asanmed Us regular business. Upon motion ot Rev. J. H. Kilpatrick, the regular order of business was dispensed with, and Dr. P. H. Uell.of the State University, delivered a very eloquent ayireaa on “The fathers of our association.' After prayer by Rev. W. 8. Kilpatrick, the meeting adjourned. Rev. Dr.Dlckerson, of Iowa, will preach to-night. We had an excellent rain this morning at 8 o'clock and the Indications for more are very flattering. It has put new life into everything. Dr. J. H. H. Harper, our popular drug- gist, is quite sick with fever. Washington, Ga., October 11.—The as sociatlon was called to order by the mod erator, Dr. Mell, at 0:30 on yesterday. Re ligions exercises were conducted by Rev. J. M. Brittain, of tho Stone Mount Asso ciation. The moderator then gave Dr. DeVo le the privilege of representing the “Homo Mission Board,” but Dr. DeVotie riquested Dr Curry, of Richmond, Va., to speak in his place, which request he liiion of the revenue laws. complied with in an able and pathetic oUhegoveruBJent w*a to protect the revenue manner. After a recess of five minutes, the associa'Ion was then addressed by the Rev. J. H. Kilpatrick. D.

At 2:30 o'clock the moderator c-riled the meeting to order. Rev. J. E. M. Holmes, of 8avannah. opened the exercises with prayer. 1 )r. Mell then introduced the Rev. H. D. D. Srtaton, of Greensboro, who ad dressed the association upon ‘‘The duty of contending for Baptist principles.” Mr. Straton was followed by Dr. G. A. Nunn ally, of Rome, Ga., who represented the church building department of the Home Mission board. For forty minutes he held the meeting spell bound, telling the usefulness of churches in the promo tion of Lhrlat’a kingdom on earth. At 8 o'clock the church was crowded to its utmost capacity, to hear the Rev. J. L. M. Curry, D. D., on education. It Is thought by some to be the finest address ever delivered in Washington. For one hour he very ably and eloquently advocat ed the cause of higher or collegiate educa tion. The meeting was for the interest of Mercer University. Among the visitors of the association we notice Rev. Dr. Battle, of Mercer Universi ty; Dr. Dickinson, of the thrutian Herald, Richmond. Va.; Dr. Wharton, of Atlanta, who will address the association to-day; Rev. J. J. 8. Callaway, Dalton; Rev. M. H. Lane, Cave 8prings; Rev.

One chimney stands also, made of native sand rock, and it poses against the "grand room.” Upon its back Is the inscription, "G M. Troup, Jan. 1st. 1852,” at which time this room was made an addition. The well of water used by Gov. Troup’s household is in nae to day by one of h'.s former slaves. Induced by curiosity to quaff from the same libation which had cooled the lips and tongue that spoke such burning, elo quent truths, I« drew from its depths a cooling beverage. It was from this home that George M. Troup was called to Con gress, to the executive chair of Georgia and to the second highest place in the gift of human power. Governor Troup’s living was In keeping with his rural home, and his manner ana mode of dress equally as simple His wnrdrobo was home-made, and "store clothes” found no favor In his eyes. At Valdosta some of the most prominent men of the day were entertained in royal style. Among that number I could men tion Gen. Mirabeau H. Lamar, Randolph Spaulding, Mansfield Torrence, Jas. Pink ney Smith, Dr. Wm. McDaniel, CoLJas. J. Jackson, and dozens of others that I might enumerate, bat whose names I do not now recall. The sideboard at Valdosta was always filled with the best wines and brandies, and th6 old Governor never felt that he had dined unless he had seen the sparkles upon his glass. One characteristic of him was that be seldom tasted of anything intoxicating before 11 clock, a. m., and then he made merry with ihls friends. Pages could ba written about Valdosta, and a common newspaper article cannot do it justice. I will leave it alone, standing out in the the centre of a cultivated field, where the cotton and corn grow a* luxuri antly and as carelessly as if Valdosta had onlv been the dwelling of the red man who had pitched his tent upon its summit and spent his hours chasing the timid fawn.

Smith does not want to give aw ay his rum to strangers aad thus advert so the fact that free rum can be had at his house, so he sells it. The lone traveler, Instead of being grateful, reports the case to some deputy who Is handy and who probably sent him to the house, and in a few days John Smith Is served with a warrant charging him with retailing yhig the sr"*'* * llquor with jut paying the special tax. The deputy subpoenas a number of witnesses who mar or may not know anything abont Smith • having sold the drink, and the entire party Is marched off to Ma con or Savanunh or Atlanta and carried before a commissioner, who Is bound to com mit or bind him over, because there Is a pos •lbllity of bis being guilty.

He. thought nearly all of the casea before him for violating the revenue laws came un der the jurisdiction of the state courta, for the reason that the majority of them were from prohibition counties whero a man could not sell whisky at all, and there was no occasion for taking out a revenue license. The Judge whero there was a ment w-s to protect the revenue to work hardships niton tho pco- cases from tho civil courts.

The first was the dush of horso pulling a wagon < ton Avonuc. Two-thirds of tho runaways in Macon occur on this street.

A Case Wherein n Prominent Republican Figures Somewhat, Wo mentioned yesterday that Chief Wiley was holding a negro named A. C. Banks ■tractions from Sheriff Doster of Upson ty, and that It was not known upon what charges. Tho chief telegraphed the sheriff of tho arrest and last night Mr. Tom Sheppard, of Upson county, came dowu with the warrant for Banks. Tho warrant is for larceny from the house, and from Mr. Shenpard we learn that tho larceny consist* iu taking an timbrel la from tho office ol Judgo Amos Morrill, or dlnnry of the county. If Banks is an umbrella thief, and it can ho f raven, ho Is the first umbrella borrower i ever caiuo to grlof.'nnd. enjoying such a rare distinction, it i^||robabto that the author ities of Upsou are wifi In g to go to tho expense of telegraphing and sending a man to Macon forhltn, The umbrella as a general thing Is common property, and belongs to tho mau who gets It first. Very few men, in a ntlu storm, if called upon, could swear to carrying their own umbrellas. TUc«.rlgiual is always lost, ami man is not often very particular what duplicate ho picks up. Banks, who will, If convicted, enjoy a na tional reputation, Is a Republican school teacher, and seems to be in bod odor In tho county. It is charged that at tho recent elec tion In that county he took tho oath and sworo that he hod paid hi* poll tax, and yet there are two 11 fas. against lilm for tho tax. He is a bright and InttdUgcnt negro, and, beyond his ambition to become a loader in Republi canism, no matter at what cost, is said to be a worthy man. He will bo carried to Thomaston this morn- log.

The other day he appeared in a new role, lie saw a country boy seated on a wagon hold- ng an umbrella over him. Willie began to see how many time* he could knock tho umbrella out of the boy's hand with a rock. Four times In succession ho succeeded and before be could send in hi* application to tho gun club, he was nabbed by Capt. Frank Herveya U he new depot who had him before tho recorder for throwing rocks at tho depot win dows.
