ATLANTA, GEOEOIA.
Wednesday Morning, Dec. 16, 1868.
Arrest ok a. Supposed Murderer.—Since
the 20th of November, ultimo, Mr. lliram Pro
vince, a citizen of this county, has been missing.
On that day he was in this city and sold a horse
tor seventy-five dollars, lie was last seen in
company with Newton Autery, at the lord of
Proctor’s creek, on the Mason and Turner’s
Ferry road. On Sunday last the body of the
missing man was lound nearly a hall mile below
the ford, submerged in the cree^. and under a
log. The skull was badly fractiWi. Suspicion
resting on AuUry, a warrant was issued tor his
arrest, and placed in the hands ot jphcrifl Hub
bard, who started yesterday morn'mg at lour
o’clock in search of him. He succeeded io ef
fecting his arrest in Clayton count}’, sixteen
miles lrom Atlanta, and in lodging him in the
jail in this city yesterday afternoon.
House Tiiief Abhkstkd.—About three
months ago the mare owned by General Pope
was sold at a government sale, and was bought
by Mr. R. P. Griffith, who resides near Athens.
Mr. Griffith employed a negro boy by the name
ol Henry Johnson to carry her home through
the country. After Johnson got her home, Mr.
Griffith employed him to take care of her. John
son remained in the employ ol Mr. Griffith until
the 20th of September last, when helelt; and
in a few days more the mare left, also, without
the knowledge or consent of Mr. G. Suspicion
pointed to Johnson as the thief; consequently,
Mr. G. wrote the particulars to some fricuds in
this city. The letter was turned over to Capt-
Murphy, but the thief avoided this city until
Friday, when he returned, no doubt thinking
the police had forgotten him. Captain Murphy
met him on the street, recognized and arrested
him. Johnson told Captain Murphy that he had
sold the mare to Aaron Porter, colored, who
lives lour miles lrom Kingston. Officer Wood
ing was sent up, found the mare, and shipped
her to Atlanta. She and the thief were turned
over to Mr. G., who carried them to Athens.
Officer Wooding desires to return thanks to
Messrs. Smith and Harris, agents tor the Rome
and Western & Atlantic Railroads, lor their
kindness to him ; also, to Colonel Tibbs.
Just Received.—Another largo lot of those
fine Beaver and Chinchilla Overcoats. Also,
Dahlia Beaver Suits, with English Walking
Coats, Tricot and French Dahlia Sacks and Eng
lish Walking Coals. A large lot of Youths’ and
Boys’ Clothing. All of which I had made up
lor line city trade, and will be sold very cheap.
Please call and examine price and quality.

“ Settled.”—There is something satisfactory
in the very sound ot the word “ settled.” If we
use it with reference to accounts and coOce, all
understand us. The same is true ot law suits
and love quarrels. Every good housekeeper
kuows what a world of comlort there is ex
pressed in her saying ‘‘the bouse is settled,”
while all delight in settled weather. Well, we
had settled weather yesterday. It rained all
day, and the dust was settled pretty effectually.
Umbrellas and skirts weut up, while hot whisky
punches and oyster stews went down, as the
many visitors to Pease’s Restaurant can testily.
This paragraph is not intended as a hint to de
linquents to settle up, but to suggest the propri
ety ot ail bauds settling down to some profitable
employment and begin the New Year as they
should—pmodcgeru and not co.nsumeus.
Georgia Home Insurance Comp ant.—We
take pleasure in caliing attention to the card ot
this Company, in Major Whitner’s columns.—
We do so chccrlully, for the following reasons :
It is a Company resting on a firm cash basis and
is managed by men experienced in financiering,
and in insurance. There is no humbug in it —
For ten years it has been before the public and
it has by its honest aud successful management,
fairly won the public confidence it now enjoys.
It is a Georgia Company, officered by men born
aud reared in Georgia—inen who from their
youth until now that mature age stamps them
with experience—have always been appreciated
tor their integrity, energy and moral worth. We
are not ot those who think because the location
or the name is Southern that, therefore, an in
surance company is worthy ot confidence. But
it is a matter ot pride to us to be able to point to
such a home institution as this and to commend
it to our people. Dr. Bozemau, the President,
distinguished as a physiciau and a financier, we
hope to hail soon as a permanent resident of
Atlanta.
We are thus particular to speak of this Com
pany because our people have been sadly im
posed upon by the Kentucky, the Globe and the
Southern of Nashville. We cau assure them the
Georgia Home is not ot this stripe. For ten
years it has been a candidate for public layers,
and it works on sound principles of insurance
only.
“ Tue Soittiikrn Amaranth.”—This is the
title ot a volume of poems by Southern authors,
aud edited uy Miss Sailie A. Brock. It is dedi
cated to the memory ot the Confederate
Dead, and is published by Miss Brock, that she
might render her “ Southern sisters some assist
ance in gathering up the remains ot the Con
federate Dead ” aud place “ them where the
rudo ploughshare may not upturn thei^ bleach
ing bones.” The volume has six hundred and
fifty pages, aud is filled with gems of the ablest
poets of the South. It is published by Wilcox
& Rockwell, New York, aud we presume our
book-sellers will have it tor sale during the hoii
days.
A Pure Akticlk.— We have many readers,
doubtless, who seldom use wine, or ardent spir
its, yet who occasionally have them proscribed
by their physicians. la all such cases a pure
article is very desiraule, and hence we take
pleasure in announcing that Dr. J. S. Willson
has, at his drug store under the National, a sup
ply of pure old wines, brandies, aud other liquors
selected especially for medicinal purposes, which
he will iurnUli ou demand at reasonable rates.
