TEE STIR IN ATLANTA.

We have previously referred to the contest between prohibitionists and anti-prehibition- ists in Atlanta, Georgia. ''Local option" has prevailed in parts of Georgia for some time, but this year general law was passed ties One of the reasons for it was the large trade which had sprung up in liquors be- tween the cities and the places where local option prevailed. One wholesale house in Augusta is said to have sent out in month no less than ten thousand jugs of whiskey to customers in the adjoin ing t'dry counties" !" Under the new law the requisite number of citizens of Atlanta petitioned for special election to determine whether the sale of liquor should be pro hibited.
 The contest is remarkable one. Sam Jones, the evangelist, pitched his great gos- pei tent in the heart of the city, and is doing all he can on the side of prohibition. Among the speakers on the same side are Senator Colquitt, Emory Speer, judge of the United States District court, Ben Hill, son Judge Lochrane, and many others. The ministers are generally that side, and most of the church services have taken the form of prohibition meetings. The anti prohibitionists are very active. They have hired all the public halls in the city and all the brass bands; they have orators in plenty, and money is not wanting, and with these facilities they are making more noise than the prohibitionists.
 One of the significant features of the con test is the position of the celored man. Says a correspondent In the meetings held by both parties the colored man is not asked to sit on one side or in the rear, but is led up in triumph to the front, where his color as well as his vote will do the most good. But students of life see beyond all this. Here Democrats, whites and blacks, all are thrown together and mixed up in such a way that it would seem impossible ever to get them untangled. In the breaking up of the party and the line, trouble for the future is seen. Will not the alliances thus formed and the animosities thus engendered extend into general politics, not only of Georgia, but of the South, and eventually play havoc with Democratic supremacya The prohibitionists have made the soliciting of negro votes re- spectacle, and the encouragement to vote so given the negroes will not be without it's eff feet hereafter.
 The election occurs on the 25th instant. It will be interesting to see how it comes out and how the colored man votes.
