Anyone having an item of personal mention or news happening, will confer a favor by handing it te one of T» Capitol staff, each of whom wears a silver sac simile of the above signet* Second Edition. Get tbe Atlanta News Dally. Parties leaving the city for summer resorts should send their address to Thb Capitol office, 48 S. Broad street, and have Thb Capitol mail ed them each evening for the special price of 25 cents a month. • The morning Constitution gave the name of C. S. Atwood as among the prom inent citizens and members of the Liberal Club present at the meeting last night at Concordia hall. The Capitol desires to state that Mr. Atwood attended the meeting last night in the capacity of journalist, and while this article is not intended to con vey any impression as to whether he was in sympathy with the movement or not, because as acting reporter at the time he felt that he had no right to an opinion, yet owing to the circumstances and his duty as an editor he feels that it is proper to state his exact connection with the meeting. Os course he appreciates the distin guished-honor of being recorded among the few names given of prominent citizens present, when indeed there were hun dreds more whose names were not given ; but the reporter of the Constitution, Mr. E. C. Bruffey, should have quoted his own name as well as Mr. Atwood’s, if he wished to count in the newspaper men, who were there for work and work alone. As regards the meeting, Mr. Atwood de sires through The Capitol to say that it was a representative one, composed of lev el-headed, solid citizens, who even if wrong in their judgment, as some might affirm, are nevertheless honest in their convic tions and movements, and among whom had he gone there to participate he would not feel ashamed to be counted. The Capitol itself is even not yet ready to express itself about the association. Deeply Appreciated. ' The Birmingham Evening Chronicle has the following kind word to say of The Capitol, which is deeply appreciated: “ The Chronicle has added to its exchange list The Evening Capitol, of Atlanta, one of the brightest and best papers that comes to our ta ble. Mr. Chas. S. Atwood is the able editor. Tbe city department is under the management of Mr. Gordon N. Hurtel, and those of our read ers who have been charmed with his writings will readily concede that in this feature The Capitol cannot be surpassed. Long life to our contemporary, and while its printed pages fly in the breeze every evening, like the white ban ners of the god of day as it sinks to rest, may its own sun never set nor its shadow lengthen.” J. J. D. has put on his smoking cap, and will tackle Aru on the market-house question early next week; The Working World says: “The charges for licenses, clerk’s fees, fl.fas., etc., are excessive. A liberal policy toward all manufacturers, mer chants and mechanics will promote the business interests of Atlanta. W. F. Taylor, of Live Oak, Fla., is lying critically ill at tbe residence of Mrs. Charles Gause, 58 Luckie, and there is very little hope of his recovery. He is worshipful master of the Masonic Lodge at Live Oak. Mb. J. C. Scott, formerly of the bank sample rooms, has rented rooms opposite the Lanier House, in Macon, and will fit up elegant rooms. Mr. Scott is a perfect gentleman and a desira ble acquisition to the commercial circles of any city. A merchant, who was once in sympathy with the prohibitionists, and is now a “conservative,” said to a Capitol reporter this morning that the liberals and conservatives were organizing to get the fanatics out of the city offices, and put in men who will be fair and just in the ad ministration of tbe prohibition laws. Although it may seem premature, Thb Cap itol notes that for the United States Judgeship several citizens have been prominently men tioned—among them Col. Mynait, Judge Hill yer, Col. Broyles and others. Either gentleman mentioned would wear the judicial ermine with honor and distinction. We met Hon. Joel Chandler Harris, “Uncle Remus,” on the streets, and was amazed at bis aesthetic appearance. Really since he has been spectorating in that $20,000 peachblow vase that he converted into a spittoon, he has grown to be as aesthetic as he is handsome. The Working World says: “Why should our policemen be kept on duty twelve hours without relief? This is altogether too long. The men are not allowed to sit down or rest when on duty, and eight hours is long enough for as continuous service as theirs. Let there be a change. The Chief and other officers should remember they enjoy rest in the station houses when the policemen cannot. “We hope the Police Commissioners will at tend to this.” TELEGRAPHIC CONGRESSIONAL. House. Washington, D. C., July 31.—The Heuse, as the regular order of business, resumed the con sideration of the conference report upon the river and^harbor bill, and the accompanying ex planatory statement was read. Mr. Hatch, rising to a point of order, sent to to the Clerk’s desk and had read the instruc tions given the Conference Committee by the House relative to the Hennepin, Sturgeon Bay, Potomac Flats, and other clause of the river and harbor appropriation bill. The point he made was that the report of the conference committee was in violation of every single in struction given by the House, and therefore was not in order, and should not be received. If this report was received no confidence could hereafter be placed in a conference committee. Since the first day of the first session of the first Congress, no such record had ever been made by a conference committee. It stood alone without a single precedent. It had no precedent and he wished it would never have an imitation. He held that the Hou’se conference were bound in honor by the instructions of the House and could not exceed those instructions. Pleasure Party Drowned. Associated Press to Capitol. Highlands, N. J., July 31.—Intelligence is received here that the schooner yacht Sarah Craig from Philadelphia with a pleasure party, upset near the Government dock and Sandy Hook during a storm last evening. Six ladies and young men were drowned. The body of one person has been recovered. Others are supposed to be in the cabin of the yacht. Nine were found clinging to the rigging after she was captized, and were rescued by a tug. A Successful Duel. Associated Press to Capitol.

ATLANTA, GEORGIA. SATURDAY EVENING. JULY 31, 1886. THE COWHIDING CASE. Recarder Anderson Dismisses the Case Against M. C. Galluchat. This morning M. C. Galluchat was tried in the Recorder’s court, for cowhiding C. Millican, on Monday last. Judge Anderson dismissed the case on the ground that if Galluchat was guilty of anything it was an assault and bat tery, and he was already held by the State courts for that offense. Galluchat in making bis statement told of how Millican had circulated reports injuring his good name and character and reflecting on those whom he loved. His recital was pathetic and brought tears to the eyes of many who heard it. Judge Anderson said be would not impose a fine, as he wished the case to go to a jury un prejudiced.

A young friend, on an investigating tour, re ports the discovery of a combination OFFICE BBNTINO, FLOWER POT drug store, kept by a Mr. Delbridge, in front of which he saw a blackboard sipn, (the adver tising medium of this combination store,) on which was given alleged comparative prices, using my name. On examination I find that cf the articles placed on the board, those I advertise in tbe daily papers are quoted incorrectly, giving higher prices. Other articles appear that I do not advertise, but sell far cheaper than I am quoted, and the remaining articles are so unsalable and unrelia ble that Ido not keep them. I also find that on this blackboard the prices of staple articles do not appear. If this blackboard then is intended to quote me on prices it will not require much study to ascertain which commandment the au thor has broken. PRICES: S.S.S., large 99 S. 8. S., small 69 B. B.
