This young city was loft by the war desolate in com mon with onr own Atlanta and many other of her sister cities. Notwithstanding this the latent energies of the people were aroused and they sot to work with com mendable zeal to build up their waste places and re organize the trade, etc., of this city. Their success has been surprising. Opelika is cow a thriving place. Her merchants are g^od men and are doing a largo aud paying business. It is now the terminus of several important lines of railway, and a very important line is now being built from there West to open a short line from 8t. Louis to Opelika and points South. Among the largest mer cantile houses are Hudmon Bros. A. J. Cooper, Schaef fer A Wood, T. L. Frazer, Hudson A Shell, the candy manufacturers, and many others, whom our limited space will not permit us to mention at this time, nice feature in this ciiy attracting the attention of every traveler is the splendid establishment of N. Tucker A Son. Here gentleman can spend a plcasaDt evening, and enjoy a game of billiards on tables surpassed in the South. Tho city government is in excellent hands. Hon. W. M. Slaughter, the Mayor, is splendid officer, and is exactly the right man in the right place. Marshal Charles Brooks, who was member of the immortal Fifth Coorgis, has kept the city so quiet that he haB not had much to do lately and has growu so aldcrmanic in proportions that he can’t get a pair of pants to fit him. The recent excitement there will probably give him work and thus reduce his weight to his normal stan dard. Opelika has a very talented young bar, three mem bers of which, Messrs. Thomas, Dowell, and Kirkpat rick, we had the pleasure of meeting. Mr. Yonng haa some beautiful artificial lakes in the suburbs, which are beiug highly embellished and stocked with fish. There is railway communication be tween the city and these lakes, and they are a favorite resort of the young people who go there to tell and listen to "the old, old story.” While there we enjoyed the hospitalities of tho “Alabama House,” to whose courteous clerk we are under many obligations. The tables of this house literally groan under the most tempting viands. Among the citizens there is a reg- lar rush for the Herald every day, and on Sundays the demand for it is simply enormous. From Opelika we dropped down to Loachapoka, halting two and a half miles this side at a farm house. The pastoral editor of the Hekald a few days ago gave an ideal account of an ideal visit to an ideal farm house, where ideal viands were served by an ideal young lady. Here it was your correspondent’s good fortune to realize the scene so deftly painted by the graphic editor, only that, instead of one lovely Venus, there were two, and all the other attractions were also doubled. Loachapoka we found to be a city of about three hundred inhabitants, and a thriving place, ^turning, wc stopped at Auburn, and spent a pleas ant hour, visiting during our stay the excellent mili tary academy, where about one hundred youths are being trained for soldiers in tbo army. Leaving Auburn we started homeward, and last night, travel stained and tired, wc reached our excel lent quarters at the Kennesaw House in Marietta, where we are rapidly recuperating. Yours, Jellaby. Stop tUe Sale of Green Fruits. In view of the diahrcca, dysentery and other disorders of the bowels which prevail in Atlanta, would it not be well for the city authorities to make an examination of the several fruit stands in the city and ascertain if any green fruits are sold. There is nothing more danger ous to health and lffe than unripe fruits, and yet we notice grown persons and chilren daily eating them. We fear that there are more than enough green apples, plums, and berries in Atlanta to give the cholera mor- bua to half the population, and we call -upon the City Council to promptly put a stop to their sale. Cholera in too near us for it to be permitted. Early Fruits. Wc have accidentally omitted to acknowledge tbe receipt, a few day* ago, of some flno pears growu by our townsman Major J. R. Wallace. They were splen did specimens of this delicious fruit, and reflected credit upon Major W’s. skill as a fruit grower. Ho will accept our thanks. KIPK PEACUES ALREADY. Mr. W. S. Parnell, of West Point, sent us on yester day, a box of ripe peaches, the first of tho season that we have seen. They were of excellent quality and flavor. Mr. P. will to-day ship a number of boxCB of this enjoyable fruit to Messrs. Gould, Barton & Co., of this city, ao that all lovers of peaches will be able to eDjoy a treat. ing!” It is precisely in such situations as these that tho Russian soldier appears to the best advantage. The headlong elan of the southern races is, indeed, wholly wanting to him ; but beneath that sallow, expression less mask there lnrks a dogged firmness, a quiet, uncomplaining endurance, a power of obedience even to tho death, worthy of a Roman legionary. The men who marched across tho Tupkoman steppes in tho fiercest heat of summer, who Btormed Kiiab in the teeth of a superior force, who won the field of Atljar one against fivo, w'ho struggled through tho Hooded Zer-Affshan under the fire of Bokhariole cannon—such men aro not to be despised. I have seen the Turkish lines man tested by every extreme of suffering, by wounds, by weariness, by hunger, by disease. I have seen him sustain all through a long and arduous campaign as became the chosen servant of the Prophet; but I am still in doubt whether, in all that constitutes a sol dier, his natural enemy may not safely bear a comparison even with him. Kennesaw House. This popular hotel at Marietta is now unsurpassed in table, rooms and every appointment. Marietta has long been a favorite resort for the peolpe of the uorth, who come south during the winter season to avoid tbc rigors of that inhospitable region; and for tho people of the south, who soek shelter from the intense heat of that section during the summer Beason. Mr. Fletcher and his accomplished lady leave nothing un done to render their guests comfortable.

St. Clair-Abbams: Dear Sir—In the acdidental and very hurried con versation we had about my recent visit to Alabama, in the interest of the Georgia Western railroad, 1 tarn readily conceive bow you got into a partial error. I did not mean to convey the idea that it had been definitely decided that the Read shall pa>s through Talladega. That is matter for the Board of Directors to determine. Nor did I mein that $300,COO had been subscribed. Colonel Grant and inyaelf, willi the engineers, went to Talladega uader the direction of the Board of Di rectors for the purpose of ascertaining the practicabil ity of locating tbe Road via Talladega, and the views and wishes of tbe citizens of that city and county on tbe subject. Tbe auiveya are not completed, but we gave ttc cit izens our opinion, that if the distance was not in creased more than ten miles, and a sum was subscribed on their pait eiiiR- cieut to construct tbc twenty miles in time to secure the half a million dollars proposed to be gi. en by the State that the directors would locate the Georgia Western Railroad, via the city of Talladega. After verr full conference with prominent and leading citi zens am wen folly of the opinion that when the sur vcys were complete and correct estimates for the twenty miles made up, if three bnndred thousand dol lars were necessary to secure the road it would be ant • scribed. In other words they mean to hare (he road if with in their financial ability to secure it. Talladega is without competition in transportation or tbe removal of her products and tbe introduction of all her necessaries, not tbe least of which is cheap fuel for tbe development of her minerals, in which she abounds of almost every character, moreover it ia one of the very finest agricultural regions in tbe South Tbe soil, climate and water equaling that of Kentucky and Tennessee. She understands entirely the Importance to her of an outlet and quick transportation at fair rates to the At lantic and thus to the world, and fully appreciates th3 vast importance to her, of the recent opening of the Port Royal Railroad, if she can only connect herself with It by some short line, and understands her only hope to be that offered by tbe Georgia Western. More over, they are wide awake to tbe importance cf a di rect an 1 untrammeled communication with our city. They admire tbe energy and enterprizs of our citi zen*. and earnestly desire to cultivate social inter course and direct trade with n*, and when Col. Grant has obtained tbe data, by actual surveys and calcula tion*, on which he can base a reliable report to bis beard, the Mayo? of that city, with a committee of other ehlaeoa, will visit ns for conference with the directors and definite action. On tbe whole, our visit waa of tbe moat encouraging and satisfactory chirac- ter, and. in my opinioo, will result in speedily verify ing your state msnt that tbe Road has been located via Talladega, and three hundred thousand dollars or such other sum aa may be necessary, haa l>een subscribed. Very respectfully, your friend, Campbell Wallace. Atlanta, Ga., May 30, 187.1. Rrr. H. H. Tucker; D. J): Dear Sib—Entertaining a high regard for your learning and ability, and feeliig assured that you de sire to use your talents for tbe good of your fellow men. W# take tbe liberty of requesting that jou will address tbe young men of Atlanta at such time and place a* may suit your convenience. Respectfully, DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION,) Atlanta, Ga., June 10,1873. j After consultation with his Excellency the Governor, I hereby call a Convention of tbe County School Com missioners of this State, to be held in this city, on the 'th and 26th days of this month. The objects of the Convention are to awaken inter- it in tbe public schools, to promote uniformity in the practical workings of the system, to secure a better understanding of its details, and to gain fnller infor mation as to the status of school affairs throughout the entire State. Through the kindness of the citizens of Atlanta, arrangements have already been made for entertain ing one huudred of the members, free of charge; and I feel safe in' saying, from efforts which I am now making, that 1 shall succeed in providing for the re maining forty in tho same way. Tbe following railroad companies have shown their public spirit by granting a free return to all members who pay full fare in coming, viz: Western and At lantic, Atlanta and Richmond Air-Line, The Centra* and its connections, inclnding tbe Macon and Western and the Southwestern and its branches, the Georgia, the Rome, tbe Cherokee, the Atlantic and Gulf, tho Macon and Brunswick and the Atlanta and West Point. In order to relieve the members, as nearly as sible, from all expense, I hereby instruct the several connty Boards of Education to con sider tbe thTce or four days spent in the conven tion and in coming and returning, as days devoted to official duty, allowing the Commissioners the usual per diem; inasmuch at I feel assured that this time, wisely speDt, will result in more solid good, than the same number of days occupied with any of the regu lar labors. The chief executive officers of systems in cities and counties, established under special laws, are also vited to attend. Members, on coming into the city, will be met at the trains and shown to their homes, by myself and assistants. That they may be identified, I request them to wear, each, a red ribbon tied in the lapel of his coat. Myself and assistants will wear blue rib bons tied in the same manner. Let all come that we may consult about the great tercsts we represent. All the papers of the.State are requested to copy this, a*|ihey will thereby render important public ser vice. Gustavus J. Or*. State School Commissioner. 11k Reception Lust Night. Tbc reception given by tbc friends of Dr. C. L. Red- wine to himself and lady, at the Kimball House last evening was a magnificent affair, and notwithstanding the inclemency of the weather, was attended by a large number of the prominent citizens of Atlanta, who thus showed their appreciation of a fellow citi- , who by his high moral and consistent course of conduct, has, during a long residence here, won himself a host of friends and admirers. We are grati fied at this additional evidence of the popularity and esteem in which one of our best citizens is held. This charming lady is in every respect worthy the companionship of such a lord.

In yesterday’s papers, under the caption oi "a novel idea,” there appeared an articlo. which from the loss of part of the copy, does not fully give Mr. Ellis’ po sition. Mr. Sasseen was charged with '-keeping and main taining a gaming house.” The proof shewed that he was a mere employee In tho house. The Solicitor in sisted that ss he performed a necessary part in carry ing on the game, he was guilty. Mr. Ellis' position was that If that degree of participation made Sasseen guilty, the President of the Gas Company might equally well be convicted, as the light was necessary to carrying on the game, and the reporter thought hit position the correct one.

It is reported that the Sheriff elected in Rabun county last winter gave a bond which the Judge ol the Circuit considered insufficient under the present law in this, that the principal and sureties wera not worth the amount of the bond over and above the homestead. The clerk of the Superior Court has written the Gov ernor upon the subject and says that such a bond as the law now requires cannot be gireD in Rabun county. This facts shows two things: that the people in North east Georgia aro still poor, and that the law as to Sheriffs bonds requires amendment. Married.

A special correspondent of 4he London Daily Telegraph with the Kbivau expedition writes as follows to the journal he represents : The curtain has risen at length upon the last act of the Khivan tragedy. Just after I have finished this letter the last of the five columns will be leaving Fort Alexandroyski. on the Mangishlak peninsula. There are few more picturesque sights (as those who have seen it will readily own) than the inarch of a Russian army through the eastern deserts. The sLorf, square, wiry grenadier, his sunburnt face looking doubly dark beside the white cap and light linen tunic ; the gaunt, sinewy Cossack on his untiring little horse, with his restless eye glancing wickedly from under the high shoepskin cap; the hook nosed, green-eyed, vulture-like Kirghis, with his shaggy coat thrown loosely over his broad shoulders; the endles# files of camels, with arched neck and long, noiseless stride, melt ing away into the dull, brassy yellow of the everlasting desert; the black shadows of man and beast standing out in the blistering glare, sharp and clear as a photograph; and, over all, the clear, bright, merciless sky. But, in the present case, the natural interest of such an expedition is heightened by circumstances. This handful of men are on their way to pass the wildest apd most perilous wastes of Cen tral Asia, in tho laoe of an actifo and implacable enemy. They aro bound on the same enteqiriso upon which thousands of their brethren perished miserably thirty-three years ago. They are marching to rescue their own coun trymen from the bondage of the unbeliever. They are deliberately cutting themselves off from all communication with Europe, and plunging into the unkuown like a diver m the maelstrom. For months to come their solo link with the living world will bo tho scanty tidings borne by the few couriers who may contrive to make good their way to Tash kent, across the dreary sands of the Kiril- Koum Desert.
