ATLANTA, GEORGIA.
Tuesday Morning. Dec. 29, 1868.
Euuoh.—Our fort-niiin says he had so much
Chriatma* on the brain that in changing the
date of the paper he lailed to change the day;
consequently it reads “Friday” instead of
*• Tuesday.”
Do not, forget to go and gee Templeton’s
Troupe at Davis’ Theatre to-night. See his
splendid bill tor the evening.
Thb attention of contractor* is called to the
advertisement ot Mr. Sage, Engineer, Georgia
Air Line Railroad Company to be found in our
columue to-day.
We take great pleasure ! in calling the atten
tion of our citizens io the notice to be found in
to-day’s paper, of a New Year’s Rail to be given
by Atlanta Fire Company, No. 1, at the City
Hall, on Tuesday even'mg, January 5th, 1 BOD.
Tickets to be had from the committee, or book
store of Phillips «fc Crew.
Wb take pleasure in calling the attention of
our readers to the advertisemeut of Mr. E. von
Goidtsnoven, in to-day’s paper. He may be
lound at Mr. Peter Huge’s, on Whitehall street
Saturday afternoon Lieutenant Tim. Murphy
captured a mole from a negro, supposed to have
been stolen. Any one having lost a mule can
make inquiries of the Lieutenant, as this one is
in big possession.
Monument.—We are indebted to the cour
tesy of Mr. Gray, for the inspection at hie office,
near the new Georgia Railroad Depot, of the
beautiful and appropriate design ot the Confed-
grate Monument, intended to be erected in At
lanta, by llie Ladies’ Memorial Society.
It reflects great credit on his taste. We un
derstand the location of the Monument is to be
somewhere on the open space netween the Pas
senger Depot and Alabama street.
It is a beaulitul shaft, one hundred feet high.
Our readers are aware that Mr. Gray has the
contract for furnishing the monument for the
city of Rome.
We saw but little to amuse Christmas. We
noticed several fantaslics out on horseback.
They created considerable fun for the little folks.
To the young fiiend who so gracelully repre
sented the Grecian bend, our advice is, watch
out; no matter how fascinating or charming the
ladies make themselves by action or dress, they
do not tolerate criticism or ridicule.
General Tom Thumb’s mi nature coach, drawn
by two very small ponies, and driven by a dimin
utive coachman, had the streets blockaded Fri
day afternoon with followers.
Commodore Nutt drew a crowded house at
one of our popular saloons, to witness him play
a game of billiards, on Saturday.
General Thumb and troupe held two levees at
Davis Hall on Saturday, appearing in their vari
ous characters, songs, and dances. They were
greeted with immense applause. We wish them
a successful trip South.
White’s Varieties not only had excellent bills
during the holidays, but surpassed themselves iu
their performances—nightly becoming more
popular.
The reception or & card on the 25ib, with the
compliments of E. B. Pond, Ac, asking, as
Sbukspeare has it, ‘‘May it please 3 r ou to dine
with us,” caused a smile to pass over our counte
nance expressive that “The herbal savor gave
our senses delight.” From childhood we have
hud an appreciative taste for good dinners ; so
by three o’clock we were on hand, zealous to do
duty, with conscientious fidelity.
Reader, we will not bring a sigh to your lips
by spreading beloro you the bill of fare; we
found everything to gratify and satisfy the appe
tite, and tuen to arouse it, when fainting away.
Pen9ey, in a conversation with some astrono
mer, confessed the fixing a new dish for the ta
ble, brought pleasanter thoughts, uud was a
greater event to him than the discovery ot a star.
Ol stars, said he, “we have enough, of dishes we
cau never have too many.”
At the National we lound several new dishes
to us; and all things iu the greatest profusion.
Dr. Johnson would have louiul himself forgoitul
ot hia Aunt Ford, in indulging iu the saddle of
mutton with jelly; Byron would have laid aside
his wish to keep lean iu doing justice to baked
shad, with champage sauce; Diogenes would
have turned with disgust bom his cabbage and
water, at seeing a braissee ol quails on toast;
Limb would have found the stuffed pig to his
taste; Dr. Parr’s palate would have be*.n tick
led with lobster salad; and Goldsmith would
have,placed to one side his boiled milk for the
delicious coflee.
We lound the dinner perfect, fully sustaining
the reputation of the National.
Mr. Pond has studied huniau nature, the na
ture ol travelers, and boarders. The hotel is
well furnished. Mr. Pond does uot attempt to
draw by display : everything is neat and in good
taste, but there is no effort to arrest travelers by
thi3. Vau Amburg use to say the way to take
irrational animals, use bait. Mr. Pond has in
formed himself as to man—traveling man—and
liis dining room—can draw.
CnnrsTMAS.—We might fill our column with
little personal matters, which came under our
observation iu the city during the holidays, iu
the way ol fights, bloody noses, damaged hats,
and dusty clothes; we could tell that Bourbon
was badly puuislied, and Egg-nog lay around
loose, etc., etc.; but shall we miuister to the
baser appetite of humau nature ? We could ap
pend a long list of arrivals at Tim Murphy’s
Hotel during the past lew days, but is it uot
more desirable to lose the reputation of telling
all tire news rather than spread belore the pub
lic, that which lmd belter remain unwritten ?—
We do uot care to indulge a vicious taste, nor
stimulate nu unworthy feeling, and we promised
only a day or two ago, not to wound any bunts
by making public the frailties ol the erring. It
Was Ciiiisimas, and coming .only once a year,
we will overlook the holiday excitements.
By uot bringing to light the various little dif
ficulties, or reporting names, we may not make
“a successful run,” well we hope our mulives
are properly construed.
We say, however, watch out, we are silent
when we will call 1
Central. Presbyterian OiiurCH Sabbath
School, Christmas Eve.—It is difficult to de
scribe so beautiful a thing as this reunion was.
The City Hall was tasteluily decorated, and two
large cedars laden with gills. A large number ^
of parents and children were present, and ail
conducted in the best order. The great feature
of the evening was the veritable Santa Clause.
Became in propria, persona; who he was, or
■ how he came there no one seemed to know.
He left as mysteriously as he came.
We wish we had space to give our readers the
order of exercises, and could do justice to the
very fine singing led by Mr. Craig.
Would that we could describe each happy
face as the gifts were distributed.
We have been requested by the popular and
beloved pastor to n turn his sincere thanks for
the many beautiful gifts to himself.
The Rev. Dr. Brantly gave tis, as lie always
does, the perfection ot an address. What a
marvellous faculty he has ol doing everything
just right. We regret at not being able to spread
it before our readers. May his days be long on
the earth, aud many happy retnrns of the day
to him.
The evening closed- by a call for Major Wl.it-
ner by S mta Claus. The Major is the Superin
temleut of this school, and all who know, ad
mire him, when a magnificent Photographic
Album was presented him by the teashers, ac
companied by the following (which we hope we
may be pardoned lor saying is from the gifted
pen of the accomplished Major J. R B.,) and
was handsomely read by Santa Claus :
Thou, who. wbh watchful aye each Sabbath day
Hast marked oar progress with parental care —
Whose will our wish Is ever to obey—
W hose pride in common we hare sought to share;
If (.od hath strewn our paths with blossoms lair.
Binding our brows with garlands fresh as May -
It is because Thy hand Old plucn them irom decay.
With Christian fabh we tender thee this token ;
Nor deein it worthless, trifle thon/h it be:
It l/i’ars a tang age. which, by words Unspoken,
Is eloquent with classic imagery;
Pur tU iu^h It be nor gem, nor gold to thee.
It is a pledge ot friendship, which unbroken,
No lightning stroke may rend as forests old, and oaken.
Thou who hast planted in the heart of youth,
As manna scut to nurture it irom Heaven. »
Thoughts oi Religion—infant germs of Truth,
And to their sou s a i obler purpose given;
When by the surges they were outward driven,
As bhip9 at se t by tempests lashed forsooth.
Hast scattered blessings reund us wiLb a bind of ruth.
Much unto which by nature we were blind,
Tlion hast caused Truth to circle witu its light.
When through the labarynths ot doubt the mind
Was led by thee to a prophetic right,
Things to divine, though oiten viewed aright.
As often Vexed the wisdom of ni unkind
When want ol faith had left them undefined.
Thou hast the way Illumed with light, aud set
The sky with stars by other eyes anseau ;
Plucked flowers from weeds, wh’Ch with the mildew wet.
They seagirt the light from poison-growths between ;
Home waste of thistles made to sin tie with green ;
Weak laith uplifted, as ihu minaret
Above our heads, with hope, we never can forget.
Then may this Album he a testament.
To mind theo of thine unaffected worth.
As some lights'ar iu yonder Armament,'
The pilgrim’s uasrage gladdens on the earth;
Nor diem it lightly stuce it had its birth
In hopes forever with our being b ent—
tis memories we would have it represent.
To which Superintendent, Major Whilner re
plied :
Santa Claus : This is altogether a surprise to
me, but a most agreeable one. I assure you this
beautihil present, from my co-laborers, the
Teachers of the Central Presbyterian School,
coruiug, as it does, at the close of my term ol
office as Superintendent, is most gratefully ac
cepted. 1 can scarce find words to express ntj r
appreciation of it. Nothing could be so ac
ceptable as this Album. Containing the famil
iar faces of the ladies and gentlemen, who have
so faithfully worked as Teachers in our School,
during the past year To be assured of their
esteem, and their approval of my labors, indeed
fills my heart with gratification.
Allow mo to add, Sir, though so beautifully
expressed, 1 cannot accept without gratification,
the praises bestowed in the address you have
just read. Whatever success has attended my
administration as Superintendent, I do not hesi
tate to say here, as I have said repeatedly in the
school room, lias been mainly due, under God
to our noble band ot Teachers. And I trust
our visiting friends from other schools, who
have favored us with their presence to-night,
will Bufler me to testify publicly, which I do
most siucerely, that in all my life, in all the
schools I have been connected with, or have
visited, I have never known Teachers, by their
piety, their higlt appreciation of their resposibil-
itit?s and fidelity, in discharging them; their pa
tient, cordial, and kind spirit ever evinced to
wards their Superintendent, were better qualified
for tbeir responsible duties, than those of the
Central Presbyterian Sunday School. To be
Superintendent with such a corps of assistauts,
is truly a pleasant position—to succeed as such,
was almost unavoidable. Again I thank my
co-laborers tor this valuable testimonial.

GUANO COMPANY.
CAPITAL 1,000,000.
SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO.
T HIS GUANO Is found by experience to po-sess fnlly
equal, and, under eorne conditions, gi eater, ferti-
izing power than Fernvian Gnano. Its cost per ton is
at teast $30 less than Peruvian; hence, planters ean
atioid to use it more liberally, and thus realize greater
benefits, r
According to the experience of Wm. H. Young, Esq.,
of Columbus. Ga., to whom wo reler, 20 • pounds per
acre of Soluble Pacific Gnano increased the crop three
to four times; 400 pounds per acre increased the crop
five to six rimes.
Directions for Use; -Strew one half the quantity to
be applied per acre 1u tre drill, or hill, end piaiit upon it.
When the cotton or corn is brought to a stand, and well
up, i-ay tour or five inches, sow ibe other halt broadcast
between the rows, before the plows. This is found to
be n better method than to apply all in the drill.
This Guano not only increases theorop so largely, but
matures it from two to four weeks earlier—thus addins
so long a time to the bearing season, and makes a good
crop, notwithstanding it be- attacked by caterpillar.
The use of this Gnano in Georgia oa the last crop
paid from 200 to 400 p r cent, on the investment.
Every planter, who is incredulous as to the-e facts,
should at hast satisfy hio seirby a trial on a small scale,
as the outlay will be small, while the experience gained
Wdi prove of great value. The culture of poor lana will
not compensate wi-hout the use of conceutra ed ferti
lizers, andThat which is be-t, at least cost, must be pre
ferred. See testimonials annexed. For further infor
mation, certificates, price, e c , ap; ly to

John S, Bees* A Co: Bear Sirs—Another season con
firms my previously expressed convictions, that the
soluble Pacific Guano, as compared with Peruvian, is
fully as good—indeed, better. 1 have now tested it suf
ficiently, using each side by side ior two seasons, apply
ing the same weight of each per acre, ana in every case
the Pacific has given the best results on cotton, corn,
potaioe.-, and small grain, and the testimony I have
irom a great many planters confirms my experience.
WM. H. YOUNG.
Charles A. Peabody, Esq . of Lee county, Alabama, in
a letter to William H. Young, says:
“The Peruvian Guano I had before used, aud know it
to be an invaluable fertilizer for cotton. I now find the
boluhle Pacific to be equally as good. At the eame
price, I would as soon have it for cotton or corn as the
Peruvian; some of my hands insist that it is better.”
