Go to the Jettueaaee Salooa to get your fancy driukf. dec 30 We learn that Carr’s mill darn, near Athens, has been frozen tor several days, and the yonng people hare had fine skating. Young Mem’s Library Association.—Dr. Hrantly will deliver a lecture at Davis’ Hall, on next Saturday evening, (2d January, 1809), com mencing at half-past seven, for the benefit of the association. In calling the attention of the public to the notice that Dr. Brantly is to deliver a lecture at Davis Hall on Saturday next; we deem it un necessary to add one word. Dr. Brantly is in variably happy in his efforts, and the public gratified at an opportunity to hear him. ErMKYTniNG desired, in the way of fancy drinks, is kept at the Jennessee Salaon, opposite Dodd’s corner. d* c30 Nd citt la this State has a brighter fhtnrft than this, if bet people are true to it. Atlanta by her Railroads, by being the seat of Govern ment, by her location, has many advantages, are they fully appreciated ? Depots, hotels, houses for the Legislature, stores and dwellings should be ereeied ; this is right; but a great many of the movements on loot in the city have an eye to contrivances, if we may use the word, for adding cent to cent; money making is the great desideratum. It is proper that men should attend to their business, and increase their property, but wealth is fleet ing and uncertain, and how desirable is the wealth of mind ? It becomes more and more neccessary every year to have our people well educated. Pleas ure, business, advancement, everything demand, it. Let ns encourage, and build up our schools We take pleasure in calling the attention of our readers to the advertisement of Rev. J. F. Hooten, A. it, Principal, and Mrs. J. F. Iloot- en, Assistant. For particulars, apply to the Principal, at Walton Spring. Mil. Albert Winter called at our room yes terday afternoon. He is authorized to receive subscriptions and advertisements tor the Macon Telegraph Standard Graded School for Boys and Girls Atlanta, will open its next session on the Sec ond Monday in January, 1869. The change from the First to the Second Monday was. made to give sufficient lime for fitting up the new school building. See advertisement After the Christmas holidays, which were rather dull in the city, wc are glad to see num bers of wagons on the streets, giving life and ac tivity to our business men. We hope our friends from the country may make good trades, and our merchants, satisfactory profits. If you want a fancy drink of any kind, go to the Jennessee Saloon, on Whitehall street, oppo site Dodd’s corner. dcc30 G. W. Adair’s Sale To-Dat—This morning, at 10 o’clock, Colonel Adair will sell at his office that first-class property, opposite the National Hotel, known as John Ficken’s Store. Those who wish to invest in fine rent paying property will of course be on hand. Immediately after he wilFsell the Jessee Cook Lois. They are on the Railroad near the cily and well timbered. Colonel A.’s advertisements are in the Intrlltgrncbr this morning. WB have before us a milk pail, invented by Dr. Marshal, Dentist. From an examination of it we must think it will come into general use. It is made of tin, the top is formed so that as one milks (he liquid is strained. An important addition, the top fits in on a spring and can be locked during the milking. Our citizens should encourage and patronize all homo inventions, that are deserv ing, and beneficial, and that are calculated to improve or aid our section of the oountry. We take pleasure iu recommending it to the public. Those desirous of making an examination of this article, or wish to purchase can find them at Messrs. Hnnuicutt & Belliugrath’s. A Good Dinner.—It was at the Atkin House, Knoxville, Tenn., several days since. We had been bumped aud thumped over many miles of rough railroad ; arrived there at 1 o’clock ; saw the familiar (ace of our young friend, Woody Wiley, who bade us welcome—ushered us in a large, elegant, aud warm dining-room, and then such a dinuer os was never found before at wbat is called a railroad dinner-house. Not ouly a good dinner can be had, but the commodious building has mauy elegant rooms always pre pared for travelers making a stay in Knoxville. We always believed our friend White deserved a fine hotel, and take pleasure iu congratulating him on having at last obtained one. Atlanta, Ga., December 29,1868. Mr. Patrick Fitzqibbons : Dear Sir—Allow me, iu behalf of the Teach ers aud Scholars of the Central Presbyterian Sunday-school, to thank you lor your attention and services on the occasion of the late Christ mas Tree celebration in the City Hall.

It is always a source ot gratification to call the attention of the public to a business house, particularly wlieu we cad do so conscientiously. No commendation from us is necessary in favor of tfie house of Robert F. Maddox, ou Alabama street. Mr. Maddox keeps a largo assoitment «*f tobacco, cigars, and liquors.

W it had .be pleasure this morning of exam ining two new and very handsome engines, at the round house, the Gadsden and Magraili. They ware fiuished off with uo four injectois, steel fire boxes, and cranks. They are intended tor the Georgia Railroad, and were made at Rodgers’ Locomotive Works, F. terson, Now Jersey. Wc are under obligations to the engineer who came, out with them, tor kiudly showing them to us. We ure gratified at this evidence of the pros perity of the road. “ Mazkppa,” as perlormed by Templeton’s Troupe at Davis' Hal! on Monday night, was a success.

It were superfious to speak of the rest ol tbe Troupe; they are too well known in Atlanta to l>e in want of anything we could say in their praise. One word in reference to the magnifieeut manner iu which Miss Alice Vane sung “Wear ing of the Green.” If any Irishman was pres ent, aud his cheek did not burn with enthusiasm as hs gave one sigh for the down-trodden, but beloved Emerald Isle, as Miss Alice threw her whole power into the last line, we give him up.

WM. D. BBNTLY, Ordinary. dec29—dAWlt Tn i .jf s ic e $3 SOLUBLE PACIFIC GUANO. T HIS GUANO is found by experience to possess fnlly equal, and, UDder some conditions, gieater, ferti- iEing power than Peruvian Guano. Its cost per ton is at least $30 less than Peruvian; hence, planters can afioid to nse it more liberally, and thus realize greater benefits. According to the experience of Wm. H. Young-Esq., of Columbus, Ga„ to whom we reier, 201 pounds per acre of Soluble Pacific Guano increased the crop three to four times; 400 pounds per acre increased the crop five to six times. Directions for Use Strew one half the quantity to be applied per acre In tbe drill, or hill, and plant npon it. When the cotton or corn is brought to a stand, and well up. fay lour or five inches, sow the other halt broadcast between the rows, before the plowB. This is found to be a better method than to apply all in tbe drill. This Gnano not only increases the crop so la.gely, but matures it from two to four weeks earlier—thus adding so long a time to tbe bearing season, and makes a good crop, notwithstanding it be attacked by caterpillar. The nse of this Gnano in Georgia on tbe last crop paid from 200 to 400 p- r cent, on the investment. Every planter, who is incrednlons as to these facts, should at 1* ast satisfy himself by a trial on a small scale, as the outlay will be small, while the experience gained will prove of great value. The culture of poor lanu will not compensate without the use of concentra'ed ferti lizers, and that which is best, at least cost, must be pre ferred. See testimonials annexed.

It came fully up to my expectations, and I cheerfully recommend it to planters as a profitable fertilizer for cotton. M. G. DOBBINS. Columbus, Ga., December, 1861 John 8, Reese 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 for two seasons, apply ing the same weight of each per acre, ana in eveiy case ihe Pacific has given tbe best results on cotton, com, potatoes, and small grain, and the testimony i have lrom a great manj 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 Gnano 1 had before used, and know it to be an invaln-.bie fertilizer for cotton. I now find the Soluble Pacific to be equally as good. At the same price, I woo’d as soon have it for cotton or corn as the Peruvian; some of my hands insist that it is better.’* decl 5 — SANTA CLAUS HEADQUARTERS ! z> ! For Christmas ! Gr. ALL W.
