; <aOM THUR-UM Y, A UGUST 11. It o curs to us that the Montgomery Dispatch, a very readable paper by the way, could very well afford to let Atlanta matters alone. The Diaaptch is advocating the intro duction of wumniy engines for the street car lines in Montgomery, in the place of the dangerous electricity used as a mo tor, _________ It transpires that a large number of the RepnWicans of Texas voted against the prohibition amendment, among them their last candidate for Governor and many colored citiz"n«. Indications are that Mootgomerians will have an opportunity- to gazeon the countenance of a -real live president in vetoher.—Montgomery- Ilispatch. 8o; Atlanta is now in very close com munication with the A labarna capital. Ml C«A ». « 4*. Chattanooga has struck it rich- The Commercial says: “The agony is over at last. ‘Chattanooga’s future is fixed, and fixed high up. “Natural gas has been discovered, and this report comes from such reliable and creditable sources that i* can no longer be doubted. This time 11 tore areno small pockets of gas, but a regular gusher, sup plying enough to run every foundry in Chattanooga, every engine, heat all the houses, and supply livhc for a million people. “ IVe will state at the outset that if this report it not believed the skeptical can verify it by going across the river this morning and visiting what is known as the Logan well. If the well is so tightly plunged that they cannot satisfy them selves, then let them try to get an option on any piece of property in Hill City.” We rejoice with our sinter city in this discovery If the facts as stated are true, and we have no reason to doubt them, that city will take one gigantic and long stride inti such prosperity as she has never known before. A great many cities have been builded upon natural gas, but not of the material sort which gushes forth from the well spoken of. Again we rejoice. A HKSOKIVI MSKUEIt. Ah Sin, a Chinaman, was much aston ished when he learned the American mode of indemnifying the doctors. He said: ‘‘You silly people pay your physicians for keeping you sick ; we pay ours for keeping us well. If we paid outs as you do yours, they would keep uh sick all the time. We make it to the personal inter est of our doctors to core us quick and keep us cured. We pay them so much a day for every day we are well, and when we get sick the doctor’s pay stops till we get well again.” Why is not the Chinese plan a good one? Certainly if the physician were allowed to control our diet and direct onr habits and actions a large percentage of disease not contagious would be pre vented. As a rule, each spell of sickness is traceable to a cause which could as well as not have been avoided. We simply needed to know the effect; of this the physician could have informed us, and knowing the inevitable result of a viola tion of nature's law, we would have prof ited by the information. As it is, we call in a doctor after we are sick—pray, as it were, after we are in the devil’s clutches. A reform in custom and a revulsion in practice is very much needed in this mat ter. A PECI I.IAK PHttNOMUNON. On Friday of next week there will be a celestial phenomenon that is not often to be seen in a life time. On that day there w ill be a total eclipse of the sun, the moon passing direct between the solar orb and our earth. The phenomenon will not be visible, however, on our hemisphere, for the path of totality commences in Ger many and extends east over Europe, the continent of Asia and Japan, and ends in the Pacific Ocean. The inhabitants of Nordhausenin Saxony will then have an opportunity of witnessing quite a unique scene, for the sun will rise for them that morning in total darkness, It will be dark as night in midday in Irkoutsk, Si beria; and the sun will set amid darkness on the vast coast of the Pacific. The du ration of the eclipse at the various points along the path of totality will vary be tween two minutes and three minutes and fifty seconds, so that at favored sta tion astronomers will have good opportu nities of making such observations and photographs of the eclipse aa they may severally need for scientific purposes. The United States, aa stated, will not witness this interesting phenomenon, but will have to await celestial developments for an opportunity to get even with the balance of the world. The Weather tmaap. The weather yesterday was fair and tolerably cool, as Tax CanroL prognoat icated last Mon day morning. To-day the aky has been fair up to soon, and will probably continue so, although there will be thunder storms pass over some partions of Crural Georgia to-day, and they may effect Atlanta to-night. To-oaoraow will proba bly not be tetter than a fair dav, and Sstuaday not so good, and unsettled weather may be ooked forearlv next week if not before.

THURSDAY, AUGUST 11, 1887. CAPITOL CRAYONS. True scenes in the Georgia House of Repre rentativea yesterday and to-day, have been no p ecedented in the history of Georgia statesman ship. The aged Dr. Felton poured out for three hours, the m> st bitter tirade of scathing sar casm and invective ever heard in the Georgia cspitol. He spoke ostensibly in support of bis reform bill, but he merely fought like a demon away out side of the skirmish lines of the question and made his speech in toto a personal attack noon the sapporters of the opposition. Among Others the Bon. Mr. Si'nmons, of Sum er “County, with most scathing invective. Bat to-day Mr. Simmon comes back at him from the floor of the House, and it would a,most seem that he had absorbed all the force of Dr. Felton’s ek qnerce and had hurled it back with redoubled power. He ce-tainly kept within the pale of propriety, and inasmuch as he did so be gained a victory over Dr. Felton, who it is almost universally conceeded, overdid the matter and carried his personal abuse too far, thus injuring more than be helped his cause no matter what may be its merits. Both speech s were masterly and should, as they probably will, go dowu as among the best oratorical ef forts of American state-men. A ntilUl.HII.

There is no room what ever for doubt, denial or hesitancy in the acceptance ol this truth in the light of facts such as these. Mr. Healey writes : Thomasvxi.lb, Ga., March 20, 1887. The Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga.: Gentlemen —I have been a victim to that dread disease, consumption. Six months ago 1 was taken with malaria, which confined me to my bed for one week, in which time I lost fifteen pounds. This sicknesd left me with a hacking cough which seemed to be beyond the reach of medical aid. I went to'the mountains ami obtained but little relief, my cough still .■ontinning dry and hard.’ I returned, with my cough much worse One month later 1 was taken with a hemorrhage los ing a large quantity of blood. This time 1 was confined to my bed three weeks. 1 gave up all hope'of ever enjoying good health again and would listen to no more medical ad vice, having tried, as I thought, everytliing worth trying. I was, however, advised by a friend to try 8. S. 8. After taking the second bottle I commenced to feel its wonderful effects, and now, thank God, after finishing twelve bottles. I feel almost as sound as I ever did in my life, having gained 22 pounds and lost ail mv cough, which makes me feel like a new man. May God speed the spread of S.S.S. among my fellow sufferers.

My dependence, however, is mainly on the impression the medicine will make for itself. If it is good the people will have it; if it is not, they sir uld not be deceived into buying it. I believe I have one of the best medicines in the world, and many of my customers think 1 am right. Its action is prompt, powerful and pleasant.
