Tlio Cholera 111 Atlanta.
The city was in a blaze of excitement on Sun
day and Monday at the extravagant rumors that
had gone abroad in regard to the existence of
cholera here. As usual in such matters, we find
upon investigation that the matter lias been
greatly magnified. We took occasion to exam
ine minutely into the whole affair, and can give
a correct statement, and one upon which our
citizens may place every reliance.
A squad of troops numbering about ninety-
five men readied this city on Saturday afternoon
at five o’clock. They are intended for garrison
duty here, and were sent from Louisville, or
thereabouts. In passing Nashville, where chol
era now exists, a few of them contracted the
disease. Upon reaching this point it was dis
covered that the disease existed among them,
lhat one man was seriously ill, and that others
were slightly affected with the symptoms. The
fact wns at once reported to Surgeon Yarrow,
<>n duty at this post, who immediately took steps
to arrest the infection, and if possible prevent its
spread in the city. A quarantine camp was se
lected, and the troops at once sent, beyond the
limits of the city. The place selected is near
the old small pox hospital, just beyond the city
limits, where a guard has been stationed to pre
vent any communication with the city. But one
fatal case lias yet transpired, while three others
only have been attacked. It is confined to the
troops who reached here on Saturday evening,
no case having occurred among the garrison
which is stationed at the City Hall.
li is due Surgeon Yarrow, of this post, to
state that lie has used extraordinary means to
shield our city from the dread pestilence, and
that he will continue to do so. The troops will
he kept at the quarantine camp until all danger
shall have passed ; and in the meantime, if new
cases occur among the troops now on duty in tlic
city, they will at once he sent beyond the cor
porate limits.
We are gratified to make this statement in or
der to place the minds ol our people at ease on
t'qe subject. No case has originated here, and
the chances are that none can, or will, originate.
The disease was imported—was contracted else
where—and no reasonable tears need he enter
tained that it will do us harm. While this is the
case, it is perhaps proper for our citizens to be
careful of tlieir diet, and to commence at once a
thorough cleansing of their premises.
From Drs. Willis F. Westmoreland and D’Al-
vigny we learn that preparations will speedily
be made hv the city authorities for the reception
of such cases as may possibly occur among the
freed or white indigent population. We are not
prepared to state the precise nature of these pre-
pnrations, hut the municipal authorities are fully
alive to the importance of the matter, and prompt
attention will he given to it.
Tlie Nexv Move.
The Bostou Commonwealth, a Radical sheet of
large influence aud circulation, objects to the
President not only, but to the Presidency as an
institution, and exults in the strife between the
legislative and executive branches ot the govern
ment on the ground that it will end in the early
abolishment ol lhe office of President altogether.
It says the “country can do very well without a
Chief Magistrate,” and that the Constitution must
he so changed as to remove all check upon Con
gress. Thus we see the Radicals daily develop
ing their plans and schemes tor the centraliza
tion of power and the permanent ruin of the
country. Should the Radicals ever become en
tire masters of the situation, they would doubt
less at once move for the abolishment of the
Constitution altogether. They would then have
accomplished the result to which all their plans
and actions tend : anarchy and universal contu
sion. _ _
Thu Pretldeal.
According to a dispatch in the Louisville Jottr-
i.'il of Saturday, the President lias signified hi*
acceptance of the invitation to visit that city,
and would reach there to-day. Invitations had
been tendered him to extend his tour to Nash
ville and Chattanooga. We learn,however, that
these have been declined for the present, and
that the President will probably return to \\ asli-
iugton in a few days.
This trip of the Chief Magistrate, though not
in the least designed tor political effect, we have
good reasons to believe will result most happily.
It has brought him in immediate contact with
the masses of the Northern people, and has en
abled him to inspire them, not alone with enthu
siasm for the man and the office he so worthily
fills, but with a degree of confidence iu his wis
dom, firmness aud integrity of purpose which
many of them did not have before, and which
will tell largely upon the approaching State aud
Congressional elections.
Murder at Social Circle —A letter to the
Constitutionalist, dated the 7th, says;

o'clock, p. m. While Mr. .T. M. Haralson was
sitiiug at his desk in his store, some person came
to the door and shot him. the ball entering the
left breast, passing through the body and lodging
just under the skin in the right arm two or three
inches below the point of the right shoulder.—
The hall was taken out by Dr. Gibbs and was a
miuie ball. No clue as to the murderer, though
a person was seen to run off immediately after
the firing of the gun.

will not pollute the pulpit by the introduction of
politics; lor religion should be separate at all
times aud places; but there is a terrible struggle
going on between the legislative and executive
departments of the Government of the United
States. Nothing hut jny anxiety and desire that
the legislative should triumph over executive
has induced me to come up to the convention ;
for if Congress should fail and the President tri
umph all white Unionists and colored loyalists
must leave the South. I propose to hide out no
longer. I have hidden in the mountains and
fled for the hist time. I am resolved to stand my
ground, and I will meet my fate like a man, if it

myself and the rebel population of the South;
for God knows they need prayer worse than any

In regard to the New Orleans riot lie says John

aud disgraceful nature that not to clear himself

Tlie Mulatto Convention—Douglass, Bar
nnm, Rrownlow and Rntler
There has been some dispute and disbelief as
to whether negro delegates really were admitted
to seats in tlie late Radical Convention at Phila
delphia. Tiiat those who feel an interest on
the subject may know tlie facts, we quote below
two paragraphs, which settles the question. The
first is from the Philadelphia Age, as follows:
In our issue to-day will be found the proceed
mgs of the “Southern Loyalists Convention,” as
far as they progressed yesterday. Although
there were but few delegates from abroad, aud
very few even professing to represent Southern
Stales, the demonstration inaugurated by the
League was participated in by a respectable num
ber ot our citizens, and attracted some little at
tention from tlie passers-by on the sidewalks.—
There was scarely any eutliusiam manifested,
and but few expressions of approbation were in
duiged in, except when Parson Brownlow, Gen.
Butler, P. T. Barnum, or Fred. Douglass made
tlieir appearance. A remarkable feature noticea
ble yesterday,, was the entire absence of all en
tliusiasm when tlie so-called “ Southern Loyal
ists ” became visible in the procession. The de
monstration, however, was a great success in
one respect, and one only. It certainly settled
the status ot the Radicals upon the question of
negro equality. The negro delegates were plac
ed regularly in the line, and marched in the
same procession that was graced by the presence
of tlie members of the League and the “South
ern Loyalists.” The affair was admirably man
aged. Notwithstanding the protest of some of
the delegates against the admission of tlie negro
representatives, the issue was boldly made and
decided in favor of giving them a recognized po
sition of equality among the white radicals.
Tlie question has thus been definitely settled,
and the League’s Convention of “Southern Loy
alists” yesterday gave its public adhesion to tiie
doctrines of negro equality.
The correspondent of the National Intelligen
cer says of the procession:
There were only three points of interest in
the whole procession. These were tlie appear
ance of Brownlow, Butler and Fred. Douglass.
Governor Brownlow was seated in an open
carriage, with Colonel William B. Stokes, of
Tennessee, and now and then, as he was pointed
out, was greeted with faint cheers. General
Butler marched bareheaded, on foot, with the
Massachusetts delegation. He might have passed
unnoticed except that Barnum walked a short
distance in front, and announced, from time to
time, that General Benjamin Butler was just be
hind. This kept the general busy shaking hands
with the crowd. Just after him came tlie New
Yorkers, aud- here was the real interest of the
procession. This delegation was actually head
ed by Fred. Douglass, sandwiched between The
odore Tilton, editor of the New York Independent,
and Senator Ira Harris, of New York. They were
followed by Dr. Garnett (colored) and Downing,
a New York colored man—genuine specimens
of the genus African. As this part of the pro
cession passed along, it was cheered most lustily
by negroes and whites. In fact, it was the only
portion of the “ circus ” that elicited grand ap
plause.
Poor Tilton held on nervously to the arm of
Fred. Douglass, as if he had lost every other
friend on earth, while Senator Harris sought
every opportunity to let go his embrace, as if he
would like to have been found in any other com
pany. Fred. Douglass looked and acted like a
fish out of water. He was evidently embarrassed
by the sudden prominence he had assumed. But
the faces of his African supporters were covered
with the broad grin peculiar to the race, evi
dencing that they hugely enjoyed the exhibition
and the cheers given to tlieir great compeer.
South Carolina.
The following occurs in the message of the
Governor of South Carolina, to the General As
sembly now in session at Columbia:
In view of the circumstances surrounding us
—wheu it is remembered that the State has just
emerged from a long and disastrous war, in
which not only her sons but her resources were
prodigally bestowed—that our banks have all
been destroyed—that more than three hundred
millions of property have been annihilated—that
all the fountains of credit and property have
been broken up—that our system of labor has
been thoroughly disorganized—that the refresh
ing and revivifying showers have been withheld
from a parched aud exhausted soil, and that
want, if not famine, will keep ghastly vigils in
mansion and in hovel; when it is remembered
that nearly all of the merchants of the State have
been able to compromise tlieir indebtedness to
Northern creditors on most liberal terms, surely,
the creditor class will practice forbearance and
give tlieir debtors still further indulgence. If
compelled to enforce collections, they should, in
the same fair and liberal spirit, make compro
mises with debtors so as not to drive them and
their families from home, kindred and friends.
The existing embarrassments growing out of
the indebtedness of lhe country will, like other
evils, produce beneficial results. Debtors will
find it to their interest to make final adjustment
of tlieir debts, even though tliej T are compelled
to surrender their property. As long as their
debts remain, interest will be accumulating, to
culminate in more disastrous bankruptcy. If
they surrender their property now to creditors,
they can resume their occupations and labor with
cheerfulness, knowing that its proceeds will
sooner or later rebuild their broken fortunes.
The debtor who desires to compromise with
his creditors has the means of compelling tlie
veriest Shylock to accept fair terms or exclude
him in all share of his estate by assignment, giv
ing liberal creditors the preference, or by volun
tary confession of judgment,
Believing that no Stay Law can be passed em
bracing antecedent debts, that will not conflict
with that clause of the Constitution of the
United States which declares that “no State shall
pass any law impairing the obligation of con
tracts,”! respectfully recommend for your con
sideration, for the relief ot debtors—
1st. That imprisonment for debt on mesne and
final process be abolished, except in case of
fraud; and then as a punishment for the crime,
rather than as a means of enforcing payment of
the.debt.
2d. That no costs be taxed against a defen
dant, either for the officers of the court or for the
attorney.
3d. That the Insolvent Debtors’ Laws bfe so
extended as that any debtor may, by petition,
after due notice, summon in all his creditors, and
upon assigning his estate and effects for their ben
efit, be discharged from all farther liability, not
only to suing, but to all other credits. Being
thus relieved from the incubus resting on him,
the honest and enterprising debtor wiH go to
work with alacrity and prove himself a useful
member to society. ^ ^
The “Nigger” in Philadelphia.—The odor
of the nigger is overcoming some of the North
ern delegates to the “Southern Loyal” Conven
tion. A Mr. Root advanced the following, which,
the Cincinnati Commercials correspondent thinks
represents the feelings of the Northern dele
gates:
“I am a Radical,” said Mr. Root; “an original
Radical, and I am in favor ot negro suffrage; but
I’ll be cursed if I believe in trying to split logs
with the butt end of a wedge.”
Root meant that he could stand the nigger,
but “policy” can’t.
Macon.—Arrangements are being made for a
grand meeting at Macon, to be held during the
present week, to ratify the proceedings of the i
killed him instantly. His wife who vlis in an
other part of the house at the time, received a
shock which prostrated her. How true it is
“that in the minds of life we are in death.” Thus,
in the twinkling of an eye, has a good man been
snatched from the bosom of liis family. Death
found him ready for the summons.—Sumter lle-
puMiean.
Pulaski County.—B. N. Mitchell, Esq., Clerk
of the Superior and Inferior Courts of Pulaski

Atlanta Market.
Tuesday. Sept. 11.—As will be seen from our quota
tions in another place, prices have not materially changed
since onr last weekly report. There was not much busi
ness done yesterday, owing to the extreme inclement
state of the weather. The market continues well sup
plied in all the leading articles of merchandise, and our
dealers continue to offer to the conntry trade as great in
ducements as can be offered elsewhere. Bacon continues
stiff at onr quotations, with a scarcity in the article of
Shoulders. The market is abundantly supplied with a
superior article of Flour of every grade. Our figures in
another place may be considered nearly corrector whole
sale transactions. The list lias undergone a careful cor
rection by several leading houses, and the figures are
based upon actual transactions.
There 19 tiie usual amount of business being done in
Coin, which at no time may be considered heavy. In
Bank-bills there lias been little change. At present the
traffic Is light. See financial report elsewhere.

Liverpool Cotton Market.
W. C. WATTS A CO.'S WEEKLY REPORT.
Liverpool, August 24, 18(56.—Cotton—In our report of
Fridaj-, 17th instant, we quoted middling American at
13?.,'d©14Xd. On Saturday the market was quiet, and
prices barely maintained. Mobile, ship named, sold to
arrive upon a basis of 13)£d for middling. On Monday
there was rather more demand, but it was so freely sup
plied prices were barely maintained. On Tuesday the
reports lrom Manchester were not so favorable as antici
pated, and with a limited demand prices closed dull at
about Xd decline on Friday’s quotations. On Wednes
day, in anticipation of a reduction in the bank rate the
next day, the demand improved somewhat, hut was treely
supplied, and prices closed without any improvement.—
Middling uplands, shipping from an American port, were
sold to arrive at 13>£a. Yesterday the bank rate was re
duced from S to 7 per cent, ; this caused an increased de
mand, and prices closed j*d for American. To-day the
demand has continued good and prices close firm. We
now quote middling American of average staple at 13?f d
@14)4d, hut good stapled Orleans or Texas wonld com
mand )»d@)4d more. From the foregoing it will be seen
American closes at prices current on 17th instant. There
has, however, been a decline during the week in other de
scriptions, as follows: Surats jtfd, Brazilian >fd, aud
Egyptian Id per lb. For Sea Islands there was a fair de
mand during the week, and prices are unchanged.
So long as there was actual or apprehended war on the
Continent and money wa9 at 10 per cent., it seemed to be
the opinion of every one that these causes were operating
very seriously against the market, and that with peace
and cheaper money, prices would certainly improve, hence
the course of the market for the past week has apparently
surprised every one, for at present there is scarcely a
shadow on the political sky, and we have the bank rate
down to 7 per cent, and every indication of a further re
duction very soon. So far as we can discover the main
causes that have operated to check any improvement
may be briefly stated thns: We have had more favorable
reports of the growing crop in America; prices in New
York and in the Southern markets continue relatively
lower than here, this is indicating increased estimates of
the growing crop and liberal shipments, from the old
stock now in the several ports. Again; a good deal of
cotton has been forced upon the market by banks and
other creditors to whom it was pledged during the re
cent panic; nor has business at Manchester been as ac
tive as was expected. Buyers of goods for shipment to
India and other distant markets still find it exceedingly
difficult to negotiate their long date bills as heretofore.
The sales of the week sum up 60,510 hales, of which
37,57i) were taken by the trade, 21,100 declared for export,
and 1,840 ou speculation. Last week the trade took 57,-
230 and 24,200 declared for export. Included in the sales
this week were 21,200 American, of which 16,770 were
taken by the trade, 4,430 declared for export, and 850 on
speculation. From this it will be seen that of the quan
tity taken by the trade last week, nearly half was Ameri
can. Imports 48,535, of which 4,402 were American. Tiie
stock now stands at S55.740 bales, fa decrease on last week
of 16,600.) against 430,060 last year, an increase of 435,680.
Counting the China piculs as half bales, the cotton now
at sea adds np 518,500 bales, against 381,000 last year, an
increase of 137,500, which, added to the increase in stock,
makes the total apparent excess as compared with last
year 573,180. The total apparent supply (here and at sea)
is now 1,384,240; this is 20,(500 less than shown by our
last report. Referring particularly to American cotton it
will he seen from onr table that the present stock is 32(5,-
190 hales, (a decrease on last week ot 17,410,) against 27,-
250 last year, and there is now at sea 23,000 against 25,000
last year.
From Manchester we have to-day more favorable reports
than on Tuesday last. Producers are asking an advance
in prices. It is thought a farther reduction in the hank
rate of 1 to 2 per cent, will enable buyers for India aud
other distant markets to resume operations which they
have suspended for so long.
From New York we have advices, per Atlantic cable,
to the evening of the 22d instant, quoting middling up
lands at 34c with gold at 140J*.
