ATLANTA GROWS.
__________

And Atlanta Institutions are Growing with Her.

There is a peculiar fascination about Atlanta.
  Every Atlantian talks the town, and it grows like a wandering cement.
  The only difference is that the star is evanescent, and the city is substantial and everlasting.
  In a previous article the reporter neglected to speak of the bottling department of the Atlanta Brewing and Ice company.
  Yesterday, after attention had been called to the mistake, the writer made a tour of this department and was surprised at the magnitude of the business.
  From twenty-five to thirty half barrels of beer are bottled there every day, the bottles being made in Atlanta and even the labels are being printed by an Atlanta firm.
  No beer for export leaves the cellars under six months old, and when steamed and drawn into the clear white bottles with the attractive "eagle" label upon them, this beer has no superior in the market.
 The most delicate and fastidious lady in this proud city can drink it with impunity, as it is made of the purest malt and hops obtainable, it is refreshing, invigorating, healthy and strengthening.
  Twenty big wagons distribute it daily, in patent stoppers for immediate use, or with the red and blue label of export upon them.
  The Atlanta Brewing and Ice company have gone to great expense in perfecting the equipment of their great establishment, and now it is perfect.
  The beer is delivered in bottles, half a dozen and upwards, full pints, and it is of the finest, and it is of the finest, freshest, and purest quality known to the trade.
