M»loy A Co., of Johnstown, Pa, dealers in imitation Singer machines, by the Sin er manager, Mr. R. W. Steadman, for using the trade name “Binger”-in con nection with the sale of their imita tion machines. Messrs. Maloy A Co., feeling uneasy as regards the result of the suit, made a proposition for com promising the matter, which, by the advice of complainant's attorneys, Messrs. Slagle A Wiley, was accepted by Mr. Steadman. The following was the proposition: First, they agree to discontinue the •ale of bogus machines under any name. Second, to pay nil costs in the case. Third, to sign a statement, giv ing authority to advertiM same to any extent. The result will lie better un derstood by reading the following doc ument signed and witnessed, as seen below : Notice. “The Singer Mnniifactur iug Company having instituted a suit in the Circuit Court of the U. 8., for the Western district of Pennsylvania, against the undersigned, to eujoiu them from the sale of bogus sewing ma chines, calling the same “Singer's” and from the use of the name “Singer" in all transactions relating to our business.

But tilings are, not always what iha}- seeia, Mid, in stead of being a polished gentleman, he turns out to be a shrewd rascal. He advertised in the Phonograph and all other ]>apers that he had plen-1 ty of money to loan, but when parties wanted it they were told that they must become stockholders liefore a loan would be made. Every stock-1 holder was required to |>ay in from $25 to S4O in cash before an application . for a loan could be tiled. To make a . long story short, he pocketed about i live thousand dollars in money from : our |>eople and then skipped the town. I The duped shareholders will never get a red cent ot their money back.

Yesterday a Phonograph reporter was shown through the immense new stores of Mr. Dougherty, and he was surprised to see an establishment in Atlanta of such magnitude. During the past week he has been very busy moving his stock to the splendid new store rooms, numbers 811 and 41 Peachtree street. He occupies three stories and the basement. The store has a front age on Peachtree of fifty-five feel and runs back to Pryor, a depth of 245 feet, and it is conceded to be the larg est retail dry goods store south of Baltimore. He uses the basement for his jobbing rooms, and the first floor us a retail department. He is a very methodical business man, has but few regulations and en forces them strictly. Each clerk has his special department, for which he is personally responsible. All goods are marked up in plain figures, and a se vere reprimand follows the slightest deviation from prices either way ; the offense against this rule is equivalent to a discharge. In the retail department everything that heart could wish or imagination conceive, for the adornment of the fe male form divine, can here l»e found in dazzling profusion. Special attention is given to the wants of the ladies. In that department, Inows, silks, ribbons. Lruumiuo».-, l »“" ’■■wtannrKMVul avrnj- Uiing in that paiticular lino. Mr. Dougherty also carries a heavy stock of lioots, shoes, gents’ furnishing goods, and he keeps something that everybody needs and must have, and if you want to save money, go and trade with him. He has mazked bis stock of sum liter goods down so low that you can't keep the money in pocket if you feel dis|M>sed to trade at all. He keeps a man in New York who watches the market with an Ar gus eye, and makes daily shipments of the finest and best goods to be had for the cash. When in need of any thing in the dry goods line, take our advice and go to see Dougherty. The new store will lie ready for the recep tion of customers to-morrow morning. SUMMER RESORTS. Gainesville is crowded with sum mer visitors. The great number of lieaulifui and fascinating young ladies and the great scarcity ol young gentlemen at Sara toga were never more keenly’ felt than at this season. The ratio is about one young man to fifty girls. The young men of our large cities express a decided preference for the qwtet and inexpensive pleasures afford ed in the country, and in consequence the marriageable young ladies at the fashionable resorts are a drug on the market. w —— A Few Facts.

The Hartwell Sun says: “Crops in Hart county are booming. AVith two more rains at the right time they will be better than ever made in the county,' notwithstanding all the croaking tliat has been done.” Cheering crop news comes to us j from Gwinnett county. 'Vhe Herald says: “The crop prospects for Gwin- 1 nett were never better. One of our i farmers informed us last week that he j had been a citizen of this county fifty- 1 five years, and had never seen a more flattering prospect for corn and cot ; ton.” * Says the Albany News.- “The corn crop throughout this section is gen erally better than was anticipated, but • it is short nearly half. It is thought by some of our farmers, that by strict economy and care in planting small grain ciops for the fall, the country can get along without buying corn.” A correspondent from Baker county ■ writes as follows to the Albany News: We hear from all portions of the county that the cotton crop is in a I dangerous condition ; there is not more than one-third of a crop at this time, and the caterpillars are making their. appearance in large numbers in all di- ' ’ rections. Our farmers are naturally gloomy and di spun lent at this unex-1 peeted turn. At best and under the i most favorable auspicies not more , than one-half a crop was cx|>ected. — ! Now that the caterpillars have come ' they can hope for but an almost total loss of this year’s crop. Already the work of destruction has commenced and no one cam tell where the end will be. We hope for better things, but it is only a hope. A Cyclopedia for SIO.OO. Perhaps the most remarkable liter ary enterprise of the time is the ptibli . cation of the Library of Universal Knowledge., in 20 volumes of nearly 1,000 pages each, handsomely bound, for 50 cents per volume, or SIO.OO for i the set. It is a reprint entire of the last Kncyrlopedia: A Dictionary of Universal Knowledge for the People, with very large additions upon topics of special interest to American read ers. The amouut of matter will some what exceed that of the Cyelopiediae of Appleton or Johnson, though the : price is but a fraction of the cost Volume one is to be ready early in I September, and the others will follow at very short intervals. The rernark i ably low prices are accounted for by i the method of sale, to the subscribers 'direct, saving them the large commis- I sion, often 50 or 60 per cent, paid to agents or dealers ; also, by the recent great reduction in the cost of making books, and by making very large sales. This certainly is a work that the mil lions will appreciate. Special induce inents are offered to early suliscribers and to clubs.

Hefrigeralort, Large Paintings, at and below coat, room for uew goods now MINGX.ES from AND ABROAD. \Jith old English history we assoc ciate the aged harper, seated in some castle tiall, recounting the deeds of the noble lord fie serves, and extolling the glories of his buried ancestry. The rude strains accompanying his im passioned song resound through the oaken chambers, and the wild enthu siasm of the bard is communicated to his listeners, which is manifested by various demonstrations peculiar to the j character and temperament of each. And what is this but imitation ? , The psalmist of old, speaks in praise 'of his master—his lord—but the holy psalmist sits not in castle halls; his seat is more lowly and humble, al i though his themes are far more sub 'lime and exalted. The ballads of the ' olden time, however, possesses a most pleasing charm—at least for us— while the plaintiveness of their music : calls up all the associations of our ’ youth, and the pleasing reminiscences ’of the domestic circle, and our “ain fireside.” The music of the hearth, ' the old cricket—that ominous musi ! clan of the house comes in for a share of our thoughts, and our boyhood days. It is then we associate all those dear and long-to-be remembered days, when seated around the blazing hearth, we have listened to the legends of oth er times, commemorated in verse, al though, not unlike the Barbara Allen style, were, nevertheless, relished with as much pleasure as if written by Sir Walter Scott, himself. With the lat ter, similar associations arise, but of a more decided, yet more tender char avler,the ballads of our infancy are] i the tales of youthful affection—the 1 music of the cricket, the tales of our , grandames. The chords of the one 1 may be broken—the sounds may die away—and be remembered only “as such tilings were”—but the other lives iin our memory, when all that was brighter and fairer shall have passed away. No nation can be found in any part of the world, more skilled in mu i sic than were the ancient Irish. Irish I historians contend that their country 'is the celebrated Hyperborean Isle, 1 and that music is the native produc : tion of the soil. Erin is a large Island i lying opposite the Celtoc, and iuhab j ited by the Uy|ierboreans, The i country is fruitful and pleasant, ded j icated to Apollo, and most of the peo ple, priests or songsters—Carabrenis who was one of our earliest libellers, was obliged to admit the perfection of ] the Irish, in tnuJc. After he had I heard the minstrels, who attended the Irish chieftains, at a banquet given to ! them in Dublin by Henry 11., he wrote to one of his friends in England, as | follows: “Os all nations within our I knowledge, this is beyond comparison, the chief in musical composition.” When the celebrated Italian compo ser, Gemiuiani, heard some pathetic airs in London, he exclaimed, “Ha ! that is the music of a people that lost their liberty I” I have heard nothing so sweet and plaintive, and of such an original turn, on this side of the Alps. The celebrated Handel declared often: “1 would rather be the author of Car alous' “Ellen Aroon,” than of all my own compositions.” Military music made part of the studies of the Irish warriors. It tilled them with courage and a contempt of danger, and it was Iby the help ot the military song they 1 sounded the charge rally, retreat, etc. In the sixth century the Britons and Welsh studied music under the Irish nrofemors. in the college of Armenti- WnT7*n "WMm Uteri so ro**., w. Viii- vei»ity*tliat it was called “the great School of the West of Europe.” Os sian ba. the following beautiful pas sage: “The music of Caryl is like the memory of joys that are past, pleasing mournful to the soul.” The power of music on an invalid, in many cases, has been known to ef fect wonderful cures. Feeling the pulse of a sick person, may be regu lated by a knowledge of musical notes, and we have no doubt but that this valuable part of physic is best prac tice 1 by those whose fingers have ac quired a delicacy and precision of feel ing, from being accustomed to touch the chords of musical instruments. An incident of which we know some thing about may not be out of place here. In a sick room—and who has not experienced the agonizing feelings and sufferings of one? There are ob jects upon which the eye rests in mo ments of “fitful dreams,” when pain permits reason to roam at will, and calls up the past and the pleasing as sociations of early boyhood—when health and strength go with usthrough green fields and by meandering brooks hand in hand. When hope shines brightly before us, and the future is all sunshine. There is a dreamy lux ury even in the dark hours of a sick room. During the prevalence of last year’s epidemic in Memphis a man finely believes that his life was saved by a musical box. He was alone, among strangers, and around him were the dead and the dying; dark forms and faces passed his couch, and the cureless action of the physician in his mechanical round told of a heart as cold and as callous as liis climate was warm. The mind could dwell on nothing present. With him it was all the past—all future; one effort -his case was helpless—piles of ice were around his head, and in his hand he held a cup, the last prescription of the doctor. He removed the ice from hi* bend—he laid the cup on the table, and drawing out from beneath the bed ; a musical box, he wound it up. Soft ly it «poke; its low tones swept along gently; then came a louder strain, and the beautiful air of “Molly Brown,'’ brought peace to his mind. The past, liie present 'and the future seemed all hts own. He changed the air—oh, how cheering, yet sad it was. It brought to his view the distant home— the smile, the laugh, the fireside—all were before him bright and beautiful. “Home, Sweet Home,” lulled him to sleep. He had a long refreshing slumber, and in three days afterwards be vas out. Would he part with that box? No. Music's soft breath falls on the quivering light. A musical farce was performed at the Opera House on Friday niglit test, to which we will refer more fully next Sumlay. We are particularly crowded to-’hy with more pleasant matter. j a t An observer tells the society editor of lhe Augusta News that the most fnsllionable evening dress at Catoo sa it made as follows; A long train of cori-colored bombazine, cut decoiatte and trimmed with gores! of yellow snow-cloth ; over this was dcapwd in graocful told* about a half dozen scam* of riehing.

At the same lime Music, French . and Drawing and Painting receive special at- 1 tention. Tlie Music Department is under the direction of Professor John Kosrber, who is well known throughout the South as the direc tor of music at the Augusta Female Seminary, Staunton, Va., and therefore does not come to Atlanta as a stranger.
