Entered at Atlanta P. 0. as second-ci ass matter. Lauhy Gantt is one of the hardest po litical hitters of the State. His warfare is nr> child's play. We insist uponour brethren of the press going it mildly in their political narra tives. Give us the sober facts, not the intoxicated exaggerations. Report exact figures. The legislature of Louisiana has passed a strict Sunday law restricting labor, and the bill has gone to the Governor for sig natur j. New Orleans is fighting solidly against the bill. Tnx city fathers have done a proper thing in removing the prohibition from newsboys crying their papers. This is a Capitol victory, as this paper brought the injustice of the matter to attention. The ice cream vendors have been allowed to cry their wares. There should be ao dis crimination against the press. That mass meeting in Augusta last Saturday was a rare compliment to Bacon. If Bacon is defeated he may partially compensate himself with the memory of the tribute paid him by that cultured and intelligent community. In a gathering of a thousand men he had over 800. This result is a tribute to the strong influence of Pat Walsh. Thk Quitman Free Press announces, evidently by authority, that Congressman Henry G. Turner will not be a candidate for Governor, but is in the race for Con gress. From the present outlook this is a wise announcement, as things indicate that Mr. Turner will have his hands full * in securing a renomination. One of the wisest heads and best judges of political affairs in Georgia, a veteran public officer, distinguished and candid, was asked his view of the result ci the gubernatorial canvass. He replied: '‘Everything points to Gordon’s nomina tion. He will carry most of the counties North of the Chattahoochee, and a large number around Columbus, and divide the rest.” We give the opinion for what it is WortK STOP THE DETRACTION. The newspaper or the man that seeks to show that either Gordon or Bacon are un worthy of the support of the people of <Georgia for the high place of Governor is engaged in an ungracious task. They are I) otb competent and deserving. They are typical Geoigians, honorable and capable, who will fill the executive chair well and protect the fame and interest of the State. »Mr Walsh, an ardent Bacon supporter, voices the view of the Capitol in the fol lowing true utterances: "There is nothing in the reputation, record or personnel of the candidates that either demands or justifies a campaign of detraction and scurri lous abuse. Both of the gentlemen who are aeoking the office are high-toned and honorable, and no journal should be ao partisan in its sup port or denunciatory in its opposition, that it could not cordially advocate the nominee of the party should he prove to be not the candidate of hie own choosing." PAHTIZANINM. It is very difficult in a heated contest for a paper to avoid using illegitimate championship. The desire to succeed im pels to the use of every means to win suc cess. Take for instance the journals that lead in the gubernatorial battle, and with the exception of the Augusta Chronicle, which abstains from much partizhnship that the others practice, they are absolutely one sided. Everything isjcolored to help that side; favorable news on the other side is, if stated at all, qualified to break its force, while the most irrelevant and sophistical •dvocacy is pressed regardless of fact or justice. The most wanton exaggerations and de liberate perversions are coolly indulged in. This is all wrong. It should be con demned by the people, and checked as far as possible. THE COUNT. Yesterday we summed up Bacon’s strength as 12 counties ami 32 votes, and Gordon’s as 11 counties and 24 votes. Bacon, in addition, has Clinch, 2; Bul loch, 2; Montgomery, 2: making 3 more counties and 6 more votes to add to bis previous count, this giving him 15 coun ties and 38 votes. Gordon carrier! Screven yesterday, 2 votes, and will carry Fulton to-day, 6 votes, making his count stand 13,counties Rad. 32 votes. Bacon at present is ahead 2 counties and 6 votes. , McDuffie acta to-day. GLADSTONE DEFEATED. Gladstone’s Irish Home Ku’ 0 measure was defeated in Parliament yesterday, as Tire Capitol has predicted that it would be. We have seen no hope for the passage of the measure recently,save by a miracle. The vote stood 311 for the bill and 341 against, or a majority of 30 for its defeat. This is even a larger majority than we counted upon. It is a heavy blow to Gladstone, and the great old man was much affected by the action. He moved to adjourn to Thurs day and left the house looking haggard. Lord Randolph Churchill threw up his hat. The I’arnellites called Chamber lain “Traitor” and “Judas Iscariot,” at which he smiled. The programme at present is for the Queen to dissolve Parliament, and for the country to go into a new election. Par liaments last seven years unless dissolved. This Parliament will have a short exis tence. No man can now tell what will be the result of the new election. CAPITOLCRAYONS. Tax Sunday Clipper, of Rome is a chirper. It is edited with ability.

The Lucy Cobb Institute. There is a story of romance in the founding and naming of the prosperous female college at Athens, the “Lvot Cobb Institutk.” Before the war, and since Athens was a place of wealth and culture. It has been the home of dur best and most distinguished folks. The Cobb family were among its citizens. A mar ried sister of Howell and Thomas R. R. Cobb, with daughters growing to womanhood wrote an anonymous article in the newspaper regretting the necessity that parents were under of having to send off their daughters away from home to hunt up a finishing educational seminary. Gen. Tom Cobb, the brother of this lady, knowing nothing of the authorship of the arti cle, but struck by the appeal and having daugh ters of his own to oducate, took up the sugges tion and carried it through. He raised the money and put the institute upon its feet. It was a graceful and pathetic recognition of his service that when he lost a blooming young daughter, just budding into a sweet woman hood, the institution should have been tenderly named for her in lasting commemoration of her father’s service. The two incidents are peculiarly suggestive. A sisters timely inspiration found unconscious ly her own brother the instrumentality of exe cuting her valuable idea, while for him a sad bereavement was made the occasion of vitalis ing the public memory of his loss. That Fiat Battle. Athens last week had a sensation. And At lanta as usual figured foremost in it. Two Atlanta boys fell out. The dispute ended in a snapping charge of falsehood and a prompt challenge to fight under the Queensbury rules. The challenged boy as promptly accepted the invitation to fight, but put aside the Queens bury rules. Another Atlanta boy became second and a Professor’s son was the other second. An Ath ens young gentleman was referee. Attended by over a hundred students and a number of citi zens the two belligerents with their backers went out on the river two miles from the town and stripped for the duel. The mill was very lively. Each young pugi-. list achieved a knockdown. The rules forbade any striking while down, and limited the fight to 15 minutes. During the first throe minutes the earnest combatants pretty well bunged each other up, and then tussled through with but little more damage. At the end of the fif teen minutes the referee called the battle drawn, and the two gladiators shook hands, thoroughly pummelled and satisfied, and in a properly amicable mood tn each other. The ladies as a general thing have compli mented the change from the bludgeon to the fist as a healthy and gratifying oue. The faculty are much annoyed. Some writer recalls that fight in Tom Browns school days at Rugby, that forms a vivid chapter in that entertaining book, and eulogizes the spirit of the British and Georgia boys, who fall out and settle in a manly way and then become fast friends. Atlanta still keeps to the front. CAPITOLSALMAGUNDI. Ths Prince of Wales, an entbuaiaaUc amateur photog rapher. purchased his camera and outfit In thia country.

THB EVENING CAPITOL: ATLANTA. GA. TUESDAY, JUNE 8, 1886 Important Announcement to the Public. The “Baltimore Syndicate” takes thjs means of informing the public that it has decided in order to meet the wishes of a considerable num ber of persons who have heretofore negotiated with the company for the purchase of homes, to modify the terms of payment so as to bring the purchase of its elegant homes within tbe reach of a larger number of the people than the terms heretofore established permitted. To this end it now announces that it will sell any of its homes upon the cash payment of SSOO and permit tbe balance of the purchase money to be paid in monthly instalments. TBI BALTIMORE BLACK HOUSKS. These elegant residences need not be de scribed in detail. They are so generally well known that to enter into a description of their plan, with the innumerable comforts incident to their construction, their healthfulness, compac tion of arrangement, their high temperature in winter and low temperature in summer; the completeness of their sanitary arrangements aud the dozen and one features which can alone be appreciated by practical use, to describe which in detail would occupy more space than is necessary or the limits of this communication will permit. It is sufficient to say here that Nos. 9, 11, 13,15, 17 and 19 of the block are for sale. Either of these can be purchased for $3,500 subject to a ground seat of sllO redeemable at any time within a 1000 years. The ground rent system is universal in the North, is the secret of almost every merchant and mechanic owning his home, without which this ownership might be impossible. We prefer to sell in fee. Every purchaser thus far has purchased subject to a ground rent. The fact that he can carry a re deemable ground rent at so low a rate of inter est as 5 per cent, which is all he pays, is the se cret why every one thus far has purchased sub ject to a ground rent. At all events the compa ny will sell either in fee or otherwise just as the purchaser may desire. Now a few words about the business part of the transaction. The com pany will sell any of the houses above mentioned for $3,500, subject to a ground rent of sllO per annum. It will take SSOO cash, aud will allow the remaing $3,000 to be paid in monthly instal ments of S4O, with six per cent interest on tbe deferred payments, interest ceasing on each payment as made. It will take, say, seventy two months, or just six years to pay off the bal ance of purchase money at S4O per month. Now let us see what the total annual charges are: Twelve monthly paymenu S4BO One year’s ground rent 110 “ average Into rest SO “ tax 72 “ Insurance 5 Total for one years7s7 It will be observed that every charge of every kind is included in the above. Now let us see for a moment what tbe actual strain is on the purchaser, and that after all is the true and proper test which one must apply to himself in testing his or her ability to pur chase. We have seen that the total annual charges of every kind and character aggregate per annum $757, or $63 per month. Now the purchaser during the time that he is making these payments and securing his invest ment is at the same time securing its fruits, for he is occupying the house and thus saving tbe rent that he would otherwise pay. Now put ting the rental value of these houses at $45 per month (and they are generally conceded to be worth SSO) be ought, injustice to bis purchase, deduct the rental value from the total annual charges, for until he owns bis home, the rental value should be deducted. The calculation would accordingly stand thus: Total annual charges 757 00 Annual (rental value 540 00 Annual strain on nurchaser 217 00 It will thus be seen that the annual strain on the resources of the purchaser are just $217 or SIB.OO per month. In other words, tbe purchaser of one of these houses as compared to a tenant paying $45 per month rent is just SIB.OB per month more to pay than the tenant, and in consideration of said payment the purchaser gets back every month S4O clean and clear as a credit on his bal ance as purchase money. He pays SIB.OB a month more, and at the end of six year’s has his home, whereas the tenant, as above illustrated, has just exactly seventy-two rent receipts, and liable to be kicked out if he should fail to pay the seventy-third. Let us now go a step farther and FIND OUT WHAT THE HOUSE ACTUALLY COSTS the purchaser. Ills first payment wass 500 Six years, $217 each 1,302 Total cost;sl,Bo2 These figures may seem remarkable and their accuracy may perhaps be doubted by some. It is sufficient to say in reply, that the Company is prepared to guarantee their correctness. It will thus be seen, that the people of Atlan ta have here presented an opportunity of which it may truly be said is unprecedented in any city in this country. There is no clap trap about this announcement. The figures are given and their accuracy guaranteed oy a com pany of responsibility. Bring your architect with you and let him aid you in making an inspection of the property and ask him for an honest dispassionate judg ment. him what it would cost you to du plicate the house, in hard cash. And after you have asked him these questions and have re ceived a satisfactory answer, then go and ask snch well known and respected citizens as Dr. Brockett, Colonel Goldsmith, A. I’. Tripod. Col. Avery, I. C Bandmann, Capt. Rust, all of whom have lived in the res pective houses which they have purchased, from two to eleven months, and ask them and their wives and their visiting relatives and friends whether they are delighted with their purchases. The writer is sure that there is not one but what is charmed with his purchase. Ask them what temperature they experienced last summer, and they will be" apt to tell you that their homes were charmingly cool. Ask them whether they suffered from the severe ccld of the past winter, and they will tell you that, if anything, their houses were at times too warm. In brief, ask them, if you choose, whether you ought to buy or not, and act accord ingly. SPRING STREET OR “BARK BLACK’’ HOUSES. There are six houses left for sale on Spring street: No. 1 has been sold to Miss Hanna; No. 5 to Wm. A. Wimbish; No. 7 to James A. Gray; No. 13 to Mrs. Fannie McCandless. Nos. 3, 11, 15, 17 and 10 are still for sale. Theee houses will be sold for $2,350, ground rent S9O, redeemable at any time. SSOO cash, balance in monthly payments of S3O. Total annual char ges: Twelve monthly paymentss36o 00 Ground rent 90 00 Average interest 55 50 Tax S 3 75 Insurance 4 50 Total annual charge $543 75 Or about $45 per month. No one who has seen these homes will hesitate to admit that they are cheap at S3O per month rent. Assuming this to be true the actual cost of the house would be as follows: Total annual chargess 543.75 Annual rental value 360.00 Annual strain $ 183.75 As it will take a little less than 62 months to pay off the balence of purchase money, the ac count will stand like this: Cash payment : $ 500.00 $183.75 per year lor 5 years and 2 months.... 949.37 Total cost of house $1,449.37 These figures must be their own demonstra tion. It would be downright supererogation to attempt to give them additional force by fur ther argument or illustration. The man who can’t, after due reflection, un derstand their force and potency ought not to bother his brain about buying a home, but ought to continue as a tenant. The company hopes, after having made the-e ronces sious, to be able to at once dispose ot its i ‘mailing bouses, lu two or three years they will doubLess l>e worth halt again as much. Every indication shows that theae houses are situated in the coining residence sec tion ot the city. No portion ot the city has snch a beautiful prospect before it. Whethar there be any ad vance or not, there will surely be no retrogression. So that a purchaser not only secures a boats tor his family in away that can hardly strain his resoaroes. bat he has in addition an incentive to **'t, coupled with the fact that he is securing an investment which affords him every reasonable expectation that after it la onee paid for it will be worth more than the original purchase money, to *ay nothing at lb* years of rent that he hu saved to himself and family.

The Gammon School of Theology, of Clark University, held interesting graduating exer cises at the colored Methodist church, corner Pryor and Hunter streets, this morning at 10 o’clock. The Gammon school of theology, of Clark university, was opened in the large and beauti ful hall provided for its use, in October, 1883. The building and partial endowment are due to the labors of Bishop Warren, and to the liber ality of tbe Rev. E. H. Gammon, the generous friend and patron of the school, in whose honor the institute is named. It is the purpose of the founders of the school to furnish the best advantages to those prepar ing for the ministry. This institution was founded on the conviction that the ministers should be trained with some reference to tbe needs of this particular field; that they should be kept in close sympathy with the people. To secure these ends is the aim of this institution. The following was the programme of exer cises: Chorus— Church Rallying Song. Prayer. Music —Bong of Soil, by quartette. Our Mis sion—H. N. Brown, Cleveland, Tenn. “Rocks A bead," N. H. Williams. Corinth, Miss. Mu sic—Sweet and Low, by Quartette. The Preach ing Required for the Times, A. P. Melton, At lanta. The Relation of the ministry to the Col ored People of the South, J. B. L. Williams, LaGrange. Anthem—Like a Father Pitieth his Children. Inspiration of the Bible, T. C. Levert, Marion, Ala. The Outlook for Africa, T.W. Haigler, Decatur. Christ in Human Progress, J. M. Cox, Atlanta. Anthem —Inspirer and Hearer of Prayer, by Quartette. Conferring Legrees and Diplomas. Addresses. The seven names in tbe programme compose the graduating class —the first since the found ing of the school. Every one of the class did most creditably, and the entire programme was well carried out. Tne church was crowded and the audience well pleased with the entertain ment. A Trip to California. Tbe following private letter, written to a well known gentleman in the city, is so well written, and contains so many interesting traveling notes, that we give it space: San Francisco, Cal. As you are aware, I left your city Monday, sp. m., Mav 3d. I took breakfast in Nashville, 4th, and supper in St. Louis same day, and breakfasted in Kansas City sth, 900 miles out on my journey. There I had two hours, and spent it taking in that lively town of 104,000 population and rapidly improving. It is built on hills, mountains. There I saw for the first time the cable cars and took a ride on them. I had never been in the State before, and natur ally felt interested in new territory. The lands are verv rich and lay most beautifully. Some of tbe finest farms I ever saw lay along our route. Thursday the 6th, early in the morning, I was awakened by a gentleman near me, oppo site berth, exclaiming, “Pike’s Peak!” Quickly looking out through the window I saw some thing in the distance having the appearance of a cloud thunder-head in the the summer time, and there the Mount of Colorado stood 14,000 /eet high and covered with snow all about the top. Soon we were in the beautiful city of Denver, a city of 60,000 population lying at the foot of the Rocky Mountains—the chain in full view north west and south for more than a hun dred miles above and below. The toot hills are about 17 miles away from the city, but a stran ger would take them to be four or five miles only. Long’s Peak, to the northwest 75 miles, is clearly seen, and Pike’s Peak, same distance to the southwest. Either of these are more than 14,200 teet high. I had about five hours there, and spent it taking in the city. Called at tbe Y. M. C. A. and made them a talk at the noon-day service. I was then 1,600 miles from Atlanta. Next stopped at Cheyenne for two hours waiting for the Omaha train—a city of 8,000 population and 6,000 feet above the sea. , Thera was a “strike on” while we were there, but our train was not interrupted. Friday night, 7th, we arrived in Ogden, 7 p. m., 2,200 miles out. There I left my train and bought ticket to Salt Lake City, forty miles, wishing to take it in on my way out. I stopped over there Saturdav and Sunday I l wls very much worn, tired and dusty and enjoyed a good night’s rest and sleep at the Val ley house; Saturday took in the beautifnl city of 25,000 population. It it located in a lovely valley surrounded by snow-capped mountains ranging from five to ten thousand feet high. I I visited tbe tabernacle; it seats about 12,000 people; saw the largest organ in the world, cost more than $150,000 and was built in the taber nacle; is 40 feet high, 20 feet wide or more. Heard one of the distinguished Mormon orators on his “ism” and visited their museum. Saw the Temple, one of the finest buildings in America, commenced in 1856, to be finished in six years. The city is well watered. They have one store 320 feet long, 100 feet wide, four stories and basement, employ 150 salesmen, sell 5 millions a year. One-fifth of the population are known as gentiles. Out to Ogden Sunday night and then on my last run. There was beautiful and grand scenery all along, that I can’t mention in my letter, but will mention Cape Horn, which we passed on Tuesday morning just, about light. Only a few of us were permitted to see it; near ly all on board were asleep. I had requested a party to wake me isl should be asleep. Luck ily I was awake and woke a lady and gentleman. We had to stand out on the platform and look down into the chasm. As the train rolled around the top of the mountain the light from the east broke in on the scene, and we, for a mo ment or two looked down 2,000 feet, while awful silence reigned within our hearts as we strain ed our eyes to catch the light at the very bot tom. We are now on California soil at last, and our long ride of 3,100 miles will soon be over. For more than 1,200 miles we have been on a barren looking bleak prairie, but now vege tation is springing up all along and the trees are thickly covered with a rich foliage. Rain has fallen, and we are in sight of the rich and beautiful Sacramento valley, and wheat fields, orchards, vineyards and beautiful roses in pro fusion welcome us to tbe golden shore. We breakfasted in Sacramento city, the capitol of the State. There is a large picnic party, of ten Sunday schools, going up the valley into the mountains —a thousand children, and" lam invi ted to go, and as I have yet one more day on my ticket, I accept, and leave my train again and go out into the country to have a splendid dinner, climb tbe grassy mountain, and view tha“landscape o’er.” For more than thirty miles I see the dome of the State capitol without the aid of glasses, so clear is the at mosphere. The thousand children have a glori ous day and the others. At seven we are back in the city. I take room at hotel, and Wednesday morning take train down the Sacramento valley to my journey’s end. Soon we come in full view’of the “golden gate” from the Oakland side and, our train stopping, get aboard the Monster Ferry boat, cross over to the golden city of the west, San Francisco, and amid the blowing of whistles, rattling of vehicles and the yelling hack men, I climb into a buss and hurry away to the Brooklyn House, register and the Sroprietor says you are a long ways from home, lr.

The saddest and most painful thing con nected with the necessary temporary abandonment of mail trains during the late change of guage Was the cutting off from the American people the baseball news of the day. SIDNEY LEWIS. Dr. Felton evidently fell heir to the shroud of the Markham house conference. It is said that “Ben Butler wants to be investigated.” As a rule the Ishmaelite is in favor of investigations. It always favors them when in the interest of public health and morals. But it does not favor the investigation of Butler just now. Let him wait till cooler weather. There are too many cholera symptoms in the coun try to justify the uncovering of Butler. Let old Dana, of the renegade Sun, lay him away on ice until cool weather sets in. May be the county can then risk the unveling of the old reprobate. HENRY M’INTOSH.

My body, from my waist up, was involved, and the pain was intolerable at times. All the old and well-known remedies were ex hausted, but no permanent relief was ob tained. About a year ago I was in duced by a friend to try Swift’s Specific. The effect has been magical. My friends scarcely recognize me. My rheumatism is entirely gone, my general health is superb, and I am weighing thirty pounds more than when I commenced taking S. S. S. lam able to attend to all my min isterial work. lam devoutly grateful for my restoration to health, which I owe, under the blessing of God, to Swift’s Spe cific. J. M. Lowry.
