ATLANTA, GEORGIA, Thursday Morning, October IS, 1868 “ Tallulah.”—Oq account ol the weatlier, the parade of this Fire Company lias been i>o8i.- poned to Thursday, the 15th inst. “Ckoakers.”—It is not oiten we welcome such visitors to our sanctum, but when they come as did a fine string of this delicious salt-water fisli yesterday, from the Ice and Fish depot ol our friend Emery, we entertain them in a proper manner. Mr. Emery is in daily receipt ot all the choice kind of fish direct (rom our Southern coast. Delegation to Attend the Funeral of Mr. Coub.—The following named gentlemen comprise the delegation from this city to attend the funeral of Hon. Ilowell Cobb: Rev. R. K. Porter, liev. W. T. Brantley, Hon. Jared L Whitaker, Hon. W. W. Clayton, Col. C. \Y. Styles, and Hon. V. P. Sisson. Merchants’ Exchange.—The Baptist Fair being still in progress, the meeting of the Ex change has been postponed until Thursday night, the 22d instant, when the committee will make an unexpectedly lavorable report. Fink Dress Goods.—The ladies have, during the present week, verified the truth of the asser tion made in these columns lust Sunday morn ing relative to the fine dress goods for sale at the auction store of Messrs. Snook & Co. This bouse is constantly in the receipt of seasonable goods for all classes and conditions of men and women. There aie goods for service and goods for oruameut—all sold at astonishingly low prices. These articles were not bought for the auction Uade, but find their way into such houses by the misforluues of merchants in other localities. In looking through the store of Messrs. Snook & Co., we were surprised to find that these gentlemen disposed of at private sale quite as many goods as they sell by auction aud at prices as reasonable. One great cause for the rush to this house is the proprietors advertise. Military.—Several companies of United Slates soldiers left the city last eveuing and this morning for points named in General Order No. 27. Captain H. C. Cook’s company goes to Al bany, and in this connection we take occasion to congratulate the citizens of that place upon the fact. The Captain made many friends in Augusta and Savannah by his urbane conduct aud strictly confining himself to the duties of his position. “ Reconstruction” is “a good thing” in Sumter county. On Tuesday of last week, the " Liverpool Cotton Company’s ” plantation, in that county, a fair average place, was sold at public outcry at three dollars and fire cents an acre. _ Vk«^*rofeu.— We understand says the Su- va»naha^J^>fifl|»^Tliat a movement is on fool amonfl®*** leading citfteus to intfe Hon.

In a garden in Lynn, Mass., is a pear tree which was grafted lour years ago, and by mis take an apple scion was put into it. It has now ou it several ripe apples ot a new variety un known to fruit growers. “Episcopal Evangelists” arc among the latest religious novelties. A report by commis sioners from the House of Bishops at the Con vention of 1850 made the announcement that without a body ot evangelists the Church could hardly be said to be organized according to the apostolic model, and further affirmed that “such corps of laborers were unquestionably neces sary lor the extension of the Church in this land." A voluntary organization, with the Rev. Dr. F. D. Huulington at its head, has been form ed with this object, and has already commenced operations. The Gaudinkr-Tyler Suit.—A correspon dent says the United States Circuit Court at Port Richmond (Staten Island) has had the ta- mous case of Gardiner, vs. Tyler under consid eration the day or two past, and that on Wed nesday a verdict was rendered iu favor of Mrs. (Ex-President) Tyler on all the issues. Attorney General Evarts appeared tor Mrs. T. The Siamese twius have found a new biogra pher in Paris, who with delirious Frencliiuess drtsse6 up the old story that Chang was a Union ist and Eng was a rebel duriug the war, with tin- assertion that “the quarre'ls between them be came so violent that the tvvins were at one time- on the point ot figbtiug a duel.” Louisiana’s Statue of Washington.—The President has issued an order directing the re turn ol tli'c marble statue ot Washington stored away in the Patent Office. The statue was seut to Washington from New Orleans duriug tin- war, aud the State of Louisiuua now demands its restoration. FINANCIAL AND COnURHClIL. Atlanta, Ga., October 11—P. M.

J “ General Orders, Ko. 27. “Whhrbas, By an act ol the Congress of the United States, approved March 2d, 1865, it is made the duty of the military authority to preserve the peace at the polls at any election that may be held in any of ike States: “And Whereas, This duty lias become the more im perative from the existing political excitement in the public mind, from the recent organization of civil gov ernment, and from the fact that Congress has by statute prohibited the organization of military forces in the sev eral States of this Department; it is, therefore, “ Ordered, That the several District commanders will, as soon as practicable, ou the receipt of this order, dis tribute the troops under their commands as follows: • * * * * * * In the District of Georgia : “One company 16th Iufantry, to Albany. “One company 16th Infantry, to Columbus. “One company 16th Infantry, to Macon. “One company 16th Infantry, to Atigu-ta. “One company 16th Infantry, to Washington, Wiikes county. “One company 16th Infantry, to Americas, “One company 16th Infantry, to Tkomaswlle. “Oae company (C) 5th Cavalry,^to Athens. “The company at Savannah to he reinforced, should occasion require, by such number o! the inen at Fort Pulaski as can be spared from the post. v • * * * * * “Detachments, when necessarj-, iu ty be made to points in the vicinity of each post; hut iu no case, nor on any pretext whatever, will detachments be sent without a commissioned officer, who will be fnhy instructed by his post commander. “The troops wi 1 be considered as iu Ihe field, and sup plied with tho necessary camp equippage; the men to be furnished with common tents if practicable, aud if not practicable, with shelter tents. Commanding officers are permitted to hire quarters, temporarily, when it can be oone for reasonable rates; but this will not preclude the necessity of carrying tents, as the commands, in all cases, muet be in readines- to move at the shortest no tice, with ail supplies required for their efficiency. “District commanders will instruct post commanders in their duties, and the relative position of the civil and military powers. They will impress on post command ers that they are to act in aid and co operation, aud in subordination to the civil authorirics ; that they arc to exercise discretion and judgment, unbiased hy political or other prejudices; that their object should be exe’u- sively to preserve the peace and uphold law and order, and they must be satisfied such is tbe object of the civil officer calling on them for aid ; that thty must in a.l cases where time will permit, apply for instruction to superior authority, but. tiiey must at ail hazards preserve the peace, and not be restrained by technical points when, in their conscientious judgment under the rules: above set forth, it is their duty to act. Post command ers, on being notified of the proposed holding of politi cal meetings, may send an officer, and if necessary a de tachment, to watch the proceedings and see that the peace is preserved. “To the people of the several States composing the Department, the Major < eneral Commanding appeals that they wifi co-operate with him and the civil authori ties in sustaining law and order, in preserving the peace and in avoiding those sceues of riot and bloodshed, and the wanton destruc.ion of property and iife, which has already, in some in-tances, been enacted in the Depart ment. He urges abstinence from ail inti,rnm.itory and incendiary appeals o the passions; discountenancing the keeping open of liquor shops on days of political meetings and of election : the abstaining from carrying arms, ynd teseriuig the individual right of constructing laws by force of arms. No jus?cause is ever advanced by resort to violence. Let there be charity aud forbear ance among political opponents, whatever may be the result; let each good citizen determine that alt who, -un der the law, have the right to the ballot shall exercise n i undisturbed. If there are disputed points of law, let | them be relerred to the courts, and let not mobs or j>o- ! litical clubs, or other irresponsible bodies, construe and undertake to execute the law. This appeal i- made in the earnest hope that the Major General Commanding c ,n rely on the good sense and correct judgment of iue mass of the people, and that he will not be compelled to resort to the exercise of the power with which be is in trusted, and which he will most reluctantly employ. Bin be thinks it his duty to make known, that i-o Ur as the power under his command w ill admit, he will not per mit the peace to be broken, and :hat he will co' be re strained in the conscientious discharge of his duty by 1 technicalities of laws made when the present anomalous condition of affairs were neither anticipated or provided for.” By order of Ma'or General Meade; Ocl9—tilnov3 R- C.
