A considerable amount of dollars and half dollars have been circulated in Atlanta within the last few das's. (iovernor Kllerbe after an illness of about. Jive months died at his home last Friday evening shortly after eight o'clock. He made a brave light for life, but the end came, as was expected, having grown gradually worse the past few weeks. To his bereaved family we extend our heartfelt, sympathy. Something Should be Done. The increase in the number of Confederate pensioners in this State, which absorbs the increased appropriations and keens the average annual payment to each pensioner down to a grotesquely insufficient figure has naturally caused surprise. Yet I he ordi nary citizen, knowing that the apportionment of the fond had been left to men supposed to have the deepest interest in promoting its just distribution, has been loth to sn?peot fraud. The statements of <'apt. W. D. Star ling before C imp Hampton night before last, show, however, that grave abuses exist, imposition h'?ing freely used to secure pensions for persons not entitled to them. The camp, to its credit, promptly took up the ma'ter and will press the State veterans, at. their it\>\>i a,n-ii111^ meeting in ? -nearer, to take remedial action. We hope the movement will he aided by other camps. For the credit of the veterans themselves as well as the benefit of the deserv ing pensioners the abuse of the State's bounty should be promptly stopped.?The State 4. THE MENINGITIS TltOUKLK.

There have been ten cases of the disease, one new case developing Friday night, and all ??f them have occurred among convicts employed in the hosiery noil. At least 90 per cent of convicts in the yard are employed in the mill, and it has been decided to shut it down. The placo was completely disinfected yesterday, bi-chloride of mercury, carbolic acid and whitewash being freely used in every portion of the build ing. Persons working in the mill who live outside will he prevented from corning in contact with other people as far as possible.
