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. A. Robenfkld, duel2—5t Gate City Clothing Store. “ 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. PEASE & HIS WIFE’S Empire Restaurant I S never closed, day or night, except Sundays, when U is open from 8 a. in. to 2 p. m. and from 6 p. m. to 8 p. m. Oar TIonse. now complete and elegantly furnished, is admirably arranged lor the accommodation of all of oar patrons. Having separate apartments for Ladies, and a private entrance, we »liall lie tuppy to extend to them the hos pitality of the iion-e. Grateful for the many favors received in the past, and the liberal patronage of the people of Atlanta during the last three years, w • are proud to acknowledge oar tense ol gratitude to all who have thus sost-tined ns. UDd by whose continued confidence our interests are still pro tected. Aekirg oniy for the patronage due to merit, and a fai equivalent lor services rendered, oar purpose still 18 to keep the pot a-boiling. OYSTERS, by the quart $0 75 OkSTKKS, by the (ruiloa 2 50 novlS—3m PBASB AND HT8 WIFB n*^-gp=lMroRTANT to EVERYBODY.—John M Gannon is now opening at his one- price Dry Goods Store, corner Whitehall and Hunter streets, the largest and cheapest stock o goods that he has ever offered to the people of Atlanta and vicinity. He has a buyer in New York every day in the year, who is at all times prepared to take advantage of any decline that may take place in Dry Goods. Gannon’s motto is “One Price—Quick Sales and Small Profits— all Goods Warranted.” The one price system insures fair dealing to everybody. A splendid stock of new goods will be opened Monday, November 30ih. For particulars see advertise ment elsewhere. nov29—lm FINANCIAL AN D COQflEKCIAL. Atlanta, Ga., December 15—P. X.
