BAPTIST ORPHAN'S HOME.


Organized in May, 1871, by the Georgia Baptist Convention. Trustees: C. Peeples, President; J. H. James, Treasurer ; L. G. Crawford, Secretary; Rev. E. W. Warren, Rev. A. T. Spalding, J. H. Calloway, A. K. Seago, J. E. Brown, of Atlanta; J. J. Howard, of Cartersville; J. L. Warren, of Savannah. Rev. R. W. Fuller, Traveling Agent.


The Home was first suggested in 1870, by a gentleman of this city, who gave to it $1,000; the members of the Second Baptist Church have given the sum of $2,500, and Mr. Fuller has secured about $6,000 additional-sufficient, it is believed, to support a Branch Home in Atlanta; and a Baptist lady of this city, (the wife of the benevolent gentleman alluded to), anxious to inaugurate the noble charity, has rented, at her own expense, the three-story house on the corner of Calhoun and Houston streets, for that purpose. The Branch Home has been in operation about one month, with ten little orphans under the care of Mrs. Crutchfield, as. Matron. It will accommodate about forty inmates, and is open to the destitute orphans of all denom- inations. If not soon filled with such, the Committee (Messrs. James and Calloway) to whom all applications should be made, will admit a number of helpless little ones having one or both parents living.


The Society owns three hundred acres of land, about two miles above Marietta, on the Western & Atlantic Railroad-a gift from the citizens of Marietta. It is the intention of the Board of Trustees to open the Principal Home on this farm early next Fall.

STREET RAILWAY.


Chartered February 23d, 1865; Company organized April 25th, 1871.


Richard Peters, President; G. W. Adair, B. E. Crane, L. Sco- field, B. H. Broomhead, J. H. James, Directors; W. P. Orme, Secretary and Treasurer.


The line to West-End-two miles-was finished in Novem- ber, 1871, and the Marietta street line, to the Rolling-Mill, in March, 1872. The Decatur street line, to the Cemetery, is being pushed forward with great rapidity, and as soon as finished, the Peachtree street line will be commenced. The whole cap- ital stock authorized by the Charter having been subscribed, the Company has ample means to complete and equip their several lines in first-class style, fully equal to those already in . operation. There are, on the two lines now in operation, five cars and forty mules and horses.


The Charter allows the collection of ten cents per passenger on each line, but the Company, with commendable liberality, have reduced the fare to half that sum. The Railway is a very great public convenience, and growing daily more popular with our citizens.
