Yes, the ground goes to the negative battery terminal. all grounds are combined to the same point. The ground symbol is often used in schematics to clear up the clutter that would be required to run the ground wire to each point showing ground.

the capacitor has a curve on one side to show you it is a polarized capacitor - usually an electrolytic (can-type) capacitor. Make sure the black strip on the side showing negative is to the less positive side of your circuit when you install it.
