Reduction in Price
The Planters’ Hotel is the most
widely advertised house in Georgia and
Florida, and the success attending the
management from this result, as well
as ns excellent tables and comfortable
rooms, prompted its genial proprietor, of
Mr. Bresnan, to reduce the price
table board to $5:00 per week, and
with rooms throughout the house to
$1.50 per day. The reduction in price
is another fact which redounds to the
credit of its proprietor.

posed of six pieces, will furnish the
dancing music.
The management have succeeded in
reducing the price tp $1 for a gentle¬
man, and 50 cents fora lady, including
tramway.
We also see that the committee
have reserved the right to reject hold¬
ers of tickets whom they may consider
objectionable.
The Dirty Streets.
Is there not something organically
wrong in the structure of the depart¬
ment whose duty it is to keep clean the
public streets ? well
Individuals, as as corporations,
committees or officials, who neglect
wilfully or otherwise their duties, and
expect good to come of it, reason in the
same way in which the farmer did who
stabled his cow in an ice house with
the hope that she would give ice
cream.
Our Street Cleaning Commissioneis
should now, more than ever, be on the?
alert, and see to it that our streets are
kept in the present state of cleanliness,
and keep them so during the corning
summer. This is a debt which the
Commissioners owe to the city. The
summer is approaching—the time for
the breeding of contagious diseases. It
may have .been a miracle that we es¬
caped last year. This year the miiacle
may not repeat itself, and unless
especial pains are taken every day to
keep the city and surroundings con¬
spicuously clean, all that we can expect
is that our population will be decimated
like Grenada, Memphis and New Or¬
leans was last summer.
A Lucky Man
A gentleman living in this city a
few days since invested his last 25 cents
in a lottery and drew $5,000—or, at

Flowers, Fragrance and Music

Then gather a wreath from Wagner’s

And tell the wish of the heart in flowers.”
What was so poetically true in
Eastern climes is the same now, and a
visit to the plant and flower store of
George Wagner, opposite the Pulaski
House, will convince one of this asser¬
tion.
Here, artistically displayed are na¬
tures choicest and most beautiful flow¬
ers and plants. Roses, pelargoniums,

a pleasant one, as its attractions are
numerous and its prices moderate.
Centennial Celebration.
Mention was made several days ago
in the Recorder of a citizen’s meeting
being held for the purpose of adopting
some plans by which the centennial
celebration, in commemoration of the
bravery, patriotism and manhood of the
immortal Jasper, might be properly
observed
A committee was appointed at that
time to make the necessary arrange¬
ments, by which the project might be
advanced and the presiding officers of
civil and military organizations were
invited to co-operate in the good work
and put into execution the laudable
undertaking.
The desire has been so general and
universal to do honor to this illustrious
patriot, that the committee entered
upon their duties with a zeal and dis¬
position this scarcely equalled in the history
of or any other city.
It will also be remembered that at |
the meeting the Mayor was requested
to appoint a committee of citizens who
W( uld interest themselves in the matter
with the committee already appointed,
and make the necessary arrangements
for the Centennial celebration on the
9th of October next.
In compliance with such request, the
pleasant duty assigned his Honor was
promptly attended to, and a committee,
consisting of one hundred and twenty
five well known citizens, embracing all
professions, trades and business was
appointed to act in conjunction with
the others.
Capt. George A. Mercer, the Chair¬
man, with a view to expedite matters
and make an eaily commencement, de¬
termined, after consideration, to call a
meeting to-night at the Court House,
at halt past seven o'clock. We hope
to and see that the the Superior Court taken room crowded,
the action to-night for
celebration of this Centennial, will
be pushed forward vigorously and en¬
ergetically, be and that the committee will
unanimous in taking such steps as
will insure its complete success.
We hope the meeting to-night will
be a success, and accomplish its object
at the earliest possible moment.

OUR CITY FATHERS.
IN SOLEMN CONCLAVE.
Council met last evening with a full
board present.
Committee on Accounts reported
having audited statements of accounts
amounting to $7,822.11.
THE CITY’S POOR- MEDICAL ATTENTION
The Health and Cemetery Com Uj.t
tee, to whom was referred the commu>
mention of Dr. Nunn, containing “a
plan for the amelioration of the condi¬
tion of the^ick poor, and the diminui
tion of the mortality in the city and
county,” seems to have met with the
approval of the Georgia Medical
Society. 1 he cause of the great dis¬
proportion of mortality between the
whites and blacks seems to be traced to
one great source, that of the want of
the proper supply 0 f food, and in¬
ability to provide the necessaries of
life by this unfortunate race,.
It was resolved that two physicians be
elected by the board to attend the sick
poor, under such rules and regulations
Sanitary as ' ma y prescribed by the Mayor and
exceed $75 Commissioners, salary not to
per month each.
Alderman De Montmollin proposed as
an amendment to the resolution that
$30 be laid down as the salary instead
of ,$75. After considerable debate upon
the question, it was carried, and now
the city physician who attends the
poor will receive from the public ex
chequer $30 instead of $75, as was
originally proposed.
Our City Fathers evidently be’i h ve
in poor Richard's maxim, Eeohi iy
is wealth.” If anything is to be d uiie
to alleviate the suffering in our midst,
and diseases.it to prevent should the be spread done ofcontagiou’ quickly, s
on
a cheap basis if possible, but be done
at all hazards regardless of certain
prescribed dollars and cents.
THE WATER QUESTION—REDUCTION
OF RATES
The Committee on Water Works, on
petition of sundry citizens in reference
to the reduction of water rates, report¬
ed that authority rested entirely with
the Commissioners of Water Works.
Discussion was had as regards the
right of a regular committee on water
works, that such vital and important
questions should be left to the Board
of Aldermen.
It was moved by Alderman De
Montmollin, to abolish the Commis¬
sioner of Water Works, The matter
was referred back to the joint com¬
mittee.
THE CITY’S HEALTH.
As the question of the appointment
of two physicians came up for deci¬
sion, considerable feeling was manifested
in the ventilation of the subject—and
as an adjunct the subject of health
came by up—which was warmly tackled
Alderman Schwartz, who consider¬
ed that the question of health was
paramount to other issues, both of a
public or private nature, and that this
question considered so v tally important should be
in preference to all others,
and that we should be awake to the
responsibility of our situation in this
important An effort subject of health.
was made on the part of
several membeisof theboard to use the
subject of economy, in the inaugaration
ol the health measure,and reasoned that
it was wise and polite to avoid making
other appropriations until after the
School Board appropriation was can
celled This objection was lost on the
face of its purile nature.
ORDINANCES, PETITIONS AND APPLICA¬
TIONS.
An ordinance to amend article 411,
section i of the city .code, was passed
on its second reading.
An ordinance to exclude dogs from
lorsyth ^ Park, was passed on its second
reading
Petition of sundry citizens, asking
that the bridge over the canal, at the
foot of Bryan street, be repaired ; also,
petition of sundry citizens, asking ex¬
tension of water mains in the vicinity
of Walburg and Lincoln streets, ile
ferred to Committee on Water Works.
ELECTION.
The Mayor announced a vacancy in
the Commissioners of Pilotage, caused
by the death of Col Claghorn. Mr.
Clavius Phillips was nominated and
elected.
A Sad Accident.— A little child,
the daughter of Arthur Banks, Esq.,

An Excellent Job
A'visit yesterday afternoon to Mont¬
gomery and New Houston streets,
shows that considerable improvement
is going on. We were gratified to see
tnat the pump contractor, Mr. Alfred
-Rent, has just finished an excellent
piece of work in the laying down of a
new pump for the city. This is a sam¬
ple of the neat and substantial work of
the contractor, whose experience in
pumps has been quite extensive.
Ikis pump furnishes a four inch
Stream t of water, and works
well. In respects the remarkably wooden
many
pumps seem to be better fitted to this
climate than those of iron, at any rate
they have given general satisfaction.
Magistrate’s Proceedings.
The novel proceedings of a trial by
jury in a Justice’s Court was again wit¬
nessed yesterday.
The case of Charles W. Price vs. A.
H. Champion, claim for balance of $24
0 i * a contract for labor performed on
an ice chest, and about which there was
some Molina dispute, was heard by Justice
at the April term.
The Justice gave judgment theu for
the plaintiff for the amount claimed,
from which defendant appealed and
demanded a trial by jury. " Yesterday
being the regular court day for May
term, the case came up for trial
before the following jurors: S. A.
I ughsley, foreman ; G. R Rossignol,
L. M. Cornell, V. L. Studer and John
Derst.
The case was commenced at -ten
o’clock and was g.ven to the jurj r at
quarter past three. After deliberatin
a few minutes the jury returned an
rendered a verdict for the plaintiff in
the full amount claimed.
Justice Molina’s charge to the jury
was fair, impartial and explicit, and
the was highly commended by the litigants,
is the attorneys and the spectators. This
second jury trial in this court,
and boih cases have been decided in
the same manner as by the Justice. J.
