TUB ATLANTA STREET RAILROAD. It in a source of pleasure to •chronicle the •iiiccess of this enterprise. It furnishes evi dence of what pluck and energy can do in public enterprises. Two years ago three or four gentlemen, be lieving a street railway system in Atlanta would not only l>e a great eonveuh nee to all classed in the community, especially 'hepoor, but remunerative to the owners, set about raising|the necessary funds. It was no easy work. Few bad .my faith in its paying. Some took small amounts of stock, considering it as a sort of donation. As the work progressed, and as the different lines were finished, the necessity for additional ones was made apparent. Fortunately, the company was controlled by gentlemen who were alive to the importance of the enterprise, and bad the good judgment and the means to push on the system to meet the demands of every portion of the city. In less than two years, a splendid line, 2| miles, to West End Mineral Spring, requiring four first-class coaches, has been completed, by which tne ladies, children, and over-woiked men can go every afternoon asul quad’ the health-giving water, inbale the pure uir and enjoy the beauties of woods and flowers. A coach passes on this line every fifteen minutes. Another on Marietta street, lj miles, two coaches every fifteen minutes, along that great thoroughfare aad accommodating the laboring class in the shops and iron manufac tories along this line Then another, 11 miles, accommodating the fashionable resi dents of Peachtree street. Then another one mile on Decatur, leading to the Cemetery. Then another, one mile, to Taylor’s Hill, giv ing the citizens of the western part of the city easy and pleasant access to the centre. The next is a new line that will be completed in twenty workiBg days from this time. This line will start on Whitehall, then along Ala bama to Washington; and thence on Wash- ton to Jones street, by which it eio?ses to McDonough and then south to Fnlton street. The new cars for this line will be rer» ived m ten days. Upon the completion of this Iffst line, the Peachtree line will be extended to the railroad crossing in front of the National Hotel, and the new car house built on the old market lot, into which all the cars will be van every night. The company has applied for, and has the survey of the following new lines, which will be built at the earliest practicable moment: From passenger depot along Pryor to Gar nett or Fair, and then to Whitehall »ud then out Whitehall. Next on Pryor, in frout of Kimball House, north to Wheat street, and along this to Cal houn street, thence to Houston and thence to the neighborhood of the Mineral Spring* on the northeast Also a line along Houston street to the Cemetery, and an extension fiom some point on Taylor’s Hill to Tatnall. When these contemplated lines are completed, every section of the city will be accommodated with cheap, safe and comfortable conveyance. The company deserve the highest praise for having built one of the best con structed and equipped roads in the United Stutes. They nse every effort to ac commodate the people, who appreciate it by bestowing tbeir patronage. Over $140,000 have already been spent in this enterprise. We hope that every cne who receives this morning’s Herald will read the admirable letter of Hon. W. A. Huff. If you have not time to read it to-day, lay the paper aside and peruse ft carefully, and ponder over the plain truths which it contain#. We have read it twice, ami we have no hesitation in stating that we have not seen for some time a public docu ment which comes up so fully to tho exigencies of the hour. There is statesmanship in it, which show# that this gentleman has carefully studied the question, knows whereof he writes and writes it boldly. We agree with every thing in it and especially do we repeat to our people that they cannot get out of their pov erty and trouble by holding conventions and passing resolutions. From a successful agri culture alone are we to get the capital which will enable us to build up other enterprises and we can never have a successful agricul ture until Ihe farmer decides to live on his farm and make it his home. What Mayor Hnff says about raising cotton to buy corn and feeding the corn to the mule and mort gaging the mule to pay for the meat, is ala', to true. Go to any village in this section of the county on court day axd find out who are the successful, prosperous men and you will find that they are those who have corn to sell and meat to sell, and who make only cotton euough to boy luxuries for tbeir families. Not many weeks ago in our county, we heard that there was an old farmer trying to loan fifteen hundred dollars. We called on him and asked him if it was true he bad money to lend. Tb<* thing sounded so preposterous that a farmer should have money to lend that we sought an interview. When he sAid to us that he had had mouey, but had already loaned it, we then said to him, “You must have meat to sell?" He replied, “I have about 2.000 pounds, but am not ready to sell it until it gets scaieer.” The views of Mr. Huff on cheap transpor tation are original and bold, but nevertheless true. We go further than he does. We do not admit that it is even a question whether the South has been benefited by cheap trans portation. We deny that she bas. On the contrary we sincerely believe, and are ready to prove, that our farming interests have been injured and our lauds been depreciated by the cheap transportation from extreme ter minal lines. Why bilk to Georgia farmers great leading features doubtless present a ew of each county and sec tion such as has never before been witnessed by the people of Georgia. The purposes of this appeal are, therefore, to invite and urge every county in the State, if possible, to be represented in some way, so that we may have no blanks in the picture. To do this is a plain, patriotic doty; a duty, which, if zealously performed, will conduce to the pros perity aud success of every county in the State, without any regard whatever as to which gets the $1,000 premium offered. This premium will, of course, g • to tlio county which shall furnish the “largest and finest display.” But, as will be seen by reference to the Premium List, there are three other handsome premiums to be distributed among other counties, as follows : . A premium of $500 to the county making the second best display. A premium of $300 to the county making the third best display ; and A premium of $200 to the county making the fourth best display. There are now three prominent counties in the State which aro kuown to be bending and concentrating all their vast powers and re sources upon this great contest-one in Upper Georgia, one in Middle Georgia, and one in South-western Georgia. Other coun ties will report progress, and enter the list for competition at the next meeting of the Society to be held in Athens next month. But while the foregoing county prizes are intended to represent the leading features of the Premium List, they are by no means the most attractive. The city of Macon has united with the Society iu the effort to pre sent a list of rewards that will not only please but actually recompense the exhibitor for some labor and expense. And among others which may be referred to with pride and sat isfaction, are the following: For beat acre of clorer hay $ 50 00 For best acre of lucerne hay 50 60 For beat acre of native grass 60 00 For beat acre of pea-vine hay For beat acre of corn forage For the largest yield of Southern cane, one For beat and iargest display of garden vege table For largest yield of upland cotton, ono For beat crop lot upland short staple cotton, not leas than live bales For best one bale upland short staple cotton..

Now we send our immense orders by telegraphic wires to t ie rich fields and broad plains of Illinois and Missouri; and if, by any chance or ill luck, a roilroad bridge is burned or a transfer boat is sunk and a little blockade occurs en route, a panic ensues and a meat, bread and hay fam ine at once threatens every man end beast south of Chattanooga. This is our mis erably poor and helpless condition to-day —fearful and unreasonable as it may ap pear to outsiders. But that annual deficiency of fifty millions of bushels of grain in the four States of Georgia, Alabama, Florida aud South Carolina, commented ou so gravely by the late Canal Convention in Atlanta, tells the whole story. We have suddenly awakened, as it were, from a deep sleep aud discovered the unwelcome fact that we uie poor, thriftless, non-producing, all-consuming, dependent people. And just so long as the farmers and planters of Georgia pursue their present mad policy of buying fertilizers to make cotton to buy corn, bacon and hay with, aud then pay two per cent, a month for money from April to November of each year to run this wild schedule, just so long will they be pitiable beggars and borrowers at the doors of trans portation offices and Georgia shaving shops, provided a worse fate does not speedily over take them. The truth is, the whole country has become A T ^ of this paper. APOTHECARIES. Sri dPi Decatur streets. ENBY 0. P0 ^atreet^Atlanta, Ga. EO. J. HOW.

There is not a better grass and grain coun try in tho South than upper Georgia, and y<t Governor Brown tells us that in a very shoit time, more than thirty five thousand bales of hay have passed over the Western k Atlantic Railroad. Why is it that fifteen years ago Major Hnff did not have io go beyond the limits of Georgia and East Tennessee to sup ply his people with corn aud bacon. The reasons are very plain. In the first place, our people while they raised as much cotton then as they do now, did not depend upon keeping their corn cribs and smokehouses in Cincinnati and Louisville, and consequently did not need as much to purchase then as they do now from abroad; and the second is that in them days it was cheaper to transport meat from upper Georgia to lower Georgia than from Cincinnati aud Louisville. Now the whole thiDg is changed. A gentleman who lives in lower Georgia, and desires to purchase hay, learns that be can get it from a farmer who lives in Floyd county, near the Rome Rail road. He inquires the price, and finds that he can purchase it at $20 per ton. He makes a calculation on the freights, and he finds that it will be much cheaper to get a car load by the Green Line, from St. Louis, even though he has to pay $23 per ton in St. Louis. Now, wbat is this but offering a royalty of three dollars per ton to the Missouri farmer, over the Georgia farmer to raise hay. These matters are so well understood that our people have not cared to raise any thing but cotton for sale.

As we must, sooner or later, come back to hist prin ciples or we must perish. We have too many able-bodied young men in shady places; too much tape cutting and pin selling aud too lit tle cotton chopping aud hay curing; too many yard sticks thrown around’ loose on srnooth- iop counters and not enough hoe-handles and plow-stocks; too many law books and lager beer barrels in proportion to the rail splitting and ditch digging; too much foolish fashion and foppery, and not enough sledge-hammers and saw-horses—in a word, too much whole sale idleness. Georgia has to-day buried in the rich bosom of her varied soil and precious mineral beds, greater wealth and grander results than can ever be worked out by canal products or Congress ional enterprise. And how is it to be done? Not by dreamy theories and mythical plans, but in talking corn instead of canal—in diver sifying and developing our own vast resour ces—in writing more about homo effort and less about foreign immigration--in planting less cotton and manufacturing more yarns. In this, and this only, lies the great secret of Georgia success —agricultural as well as finan cial and commercial. We are immensely rich in resources but miserably poor in the handling of them. What we waut is work—honest, hard-fisted, intelligent, well-directed toil, la bor and application in developing and utiliz ing what we have here at home rather than so many spasmodic efforts to bring from abroad thnt which we should not buy. Our pov erty, like our pride, is the result of misap prehensions and mistaken ideas ourselves, of our country and of each other. The aboli tion of slavery in the South has developed a vast world of sickly, sentimental, lazy, indo lent, stupefied, inert and ioapt population - a population of young and middle aged men, some of whom have known better days. These men put on old store clothes, hang around dirty grog shops and dingy hotels, smoke cheap cigars aftd drink mean whisky, affect old habits and anti-war stjle, talk poli tics awhile, and curse destiny and lroe ne groes more, fret and fume over the result tf the late war, and sian up mortgage liens cn tbeir cotton crops before they are planted, pay two per cent, interest on money for nine months iu the year, and theu promise to pay annually in the fall more money per acre for commercial manures to scatter over their lands than some of them originally cost.

For the best Georgia made plow stock For the beat Georgia made wagon, two horses, For the beat Georgia made cart These are among the many premiums of fered by the city of Macon, and the State Agricultural Society, aggregating in all more than $15,000. But it is not tu the value of the premium that we look for rewards. The exhibition promised nobler results Ilian this. There will be a great moral influence growing out of it.

Everything is conducted on the cash system, the employees being settled with on every week. The chaiit-r allows the company to charge twenty cents, but voluntarily the fare has been fixed at five cents on each line. The people want cheap freight, cheap fare, cheap gas and cheap news, and individuals or corporations who Act on this id~ft, will find it to their interest. It is pleasant to know that the city authori- onr labor is cheaper and our seasons longer, and altogether our circumstances more favora ble for raising them. We made inquiry about it of farmers living on the Georgia road, Mr. Livingston among others, and his reply was that the way freights were actually prohibitory. The true policy of railroads is to build up the country through which the road pasess, all along the lint of the road, and not to discourage production by making freights so high to the nnforlnnate man who lives on the road twenty miles from market, tie. hava appreciated the importance of this tJmt he calVt afford ^ ship a barrel of apples yreat corporation, and have given the com- or a ,,{ potatoes because be can be un- pany a hearty co-ops ration in perfecting this , derso i d by the man who lives in Connecticut cheap system of travel throughout the city. j Uid yj cw YotV, because it costs the latter less The projectors of other enterprises, such as 1 10 get his produce to market.

The Sew Jersey Editorial Association will bold its Sommer meeting at the Delaware Water Gap the last week in June. The tick et. have been placed at (10. As yon are aware, the Georgia State Agri cultural Society will hold its next annual lair at this place, commencing on the 27lh day of October. Every true Georgian ia justly proud of his native State—rich iu minerals as it is varied in aoil—wealthy indeed, in oil that sboold constitute a people prosperous and happy. We have here that diversity of production and peculiar adaptation of the various sections tc the different industrial pursuits which com bine to make up the natural elements suffi cient for an Empire. In agricultural, as in everything else, harmonious action strength ens and supports each section of the State. Lower Georgia has her pecnliar interest to foster snd protect, and her great strength to boast of. Tbi ■*' e same may be said of Upper and Hiddlo Georgia. The city of Macon occupies a grand central position geographically, and her citizens have provided within her limits Fair grounds, any equipments equal, if not superior, to any in the United States, for the accommodation of visitors and for the exhibition of any and eveiy article which may be brought here for show. The Executive Committee and mem bers of the Agricultural Society have evinced a determination to make this next the great Fair ot the State. The handsome and liberal premium list now being circulated throughout the State speaks for itself.-* An examination of its pager will convince every one fiat the Society means business. Bat the "county displays” are looked forward | uterprising mer chant; the fowl iaucicr. and the stock im porter; the horticultmalist—all will be enter tained pleased and instructed. Here we will learn the sources of supply and demand in our own State. Here wo will learn wherein our own State, each and every article is produced, raised or manufactured. Our people will nere be taught where in tbeir own country they may lollow that pursuit best suited to their interest and taste, without being forced to hunt among strangers, ns it is now too often the case. Exhibitors from Up per Georgia will here find a market for the ready sale of much, if not all, of tbeir perish- ble articles at full, remunerative prices. In addition to all this, mnch general good must necessarily grow out of these annual reunions of so many of the thinking and working men and women of the country. The spirit of State pride is fanned into new life by these meetings, and we forget, as it were, our in dividual misfortunes in rejoicing over onr mutual successes. Let us then devote one week in next October to the very profit able work of meeting and discussing the important agricultural and ' commercial interests of the day. Let it be a week de voted purely to the explosion of false theories, and putting into practical operation tho safe, sound bnsiness ideas of the times. Among other things, let us prove, by the variety and merits of onr exposition, the great and abso lute danger and folly of looking to railroads, rivers or canals for relief from “hard times.” Let onr fair in October be the only argument bv ns to prove the utter fallacy of that grand idea, that ignis fatuus, called cheap trans portation, which has so suddenly become the all absorbing theme among men search of relief. For it may in time—indeed, it has already—become a se rious question with thonghttul,observing men, whether wr have not now too much trans portion. Our seemiDg advantages may some times become our greatest misfortune. That which is oftimes a convenience is not always a blessing. Jt may become a vital necessity for us to inquire whether or not these im mense railroad lines—traversing and condu- loying, os they do, our country from moun tain to seaboard—are really feeding or ab sorbing us? That transportation which fos ters and encourages onr improvidence while it depletes our pockets, may be tho transpor tation least of all others wanted in thia country. And the objections now so strongly urged against our railroad systems, might not be en tirely overcome by these proposed water lines. It is not, however, the practicability of these grand schemes for reducing freights that we must stop now to consider—for no matter how feasible they may be, Georgia is in no condition to wait their completion. The emergency—dread—is upon us, and we most go to work, and go to work to day. We must teach onr boys, by precept and example, that the great virtue of life and the necessity of the age is to be fonnd in the truth ot the old maxim, “LaVor omnia vincit." The people of Georgia should never be depen dent upon any line of any system of trans portation for the meat and the bread, the hay and fertilizers used upon their fa rms Koch a policy will bankrupt and starve out any people in the world, tfhow me the man with a fat smoke house and a well filled barn, and I will show you one who ia not affected by low priced cotton or high transportation. On the other hand point me to that farmer with a lean smoke house and an empty con crib, and I will show you a miserably poor and mistaken wretch, whose dependent and destitute condition can never be reached by high priced cotton, or relieved in any way by cheap transportation. The truth is, w. have been betting onr bottom dollars so long on three fatal cards called “credit,” ‘cotton,” and “enterprise," that we now Commission Merchants, ami llealcrs in ail _ I Simla of Produce, No. 83 Whitehall Street. Atlanta, have brought them and their State to the ex- Georgia. Orders and consignments solicited. Be- tremity of desperation—when ruin and bank-1 turns made promptly. rnptcy stare us all iu the face—we issue proc- lamations, call public meetings, invite dis- tingnisbed gentlemen from abroad to cumc here and sympathize with us. We me t iu banquet halls, drink much champagne and discharge more gas over the great anil absorb ing questions of canal schemes, Congressional aid and cheap transportation, thin was ever expended by our forefathers in discussing the Declaration of American Independence.

And wc have here in Georgia all the ele- — ments necessary to this great end. Hers God has blessed us with everything essential to the prosperity aud growth of man or best, if only worked out. Everything, from a chicken and a churn to a cotton field and a coal bed, from a ground pea patch on the sand hills to a gold mind in the mountains. These are among the rich, rare and multi plied resources of Georgia; these constitute our strength, our refuge and our power. Think of it, farmers and planters of Middle Georgia ? Here we are, iu the heart of the empire State, tho boasted owners of lands without stint, blessed with a clim ate and soil where two crops of grain or two of potatoes, or one each of pea vines and hay can be successfully grown ou the same laud Ihe same year, and yet we go to Baltimore to buy guano to make a little cotton to sell iu New York to get money to buy hay, oats, and corn away out in the rich States of Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Missouri. And just so long as we are the voluntary patrons of produce dealers, heart less rings and pampered monopolies, such as now ow n and control, operate and direct our only lines of trade and transportation north, south and west, just so long will we be fit subjects for lien-drafts and home stead laws, mortgages aud repudiation. The South must work out her own indepeudence. The remedy is ours, if we will only apply it. Too often have we been beguiled by plausible schemes for great internal improvements and financial relief. Let us no longer be lulled into a false security by any promises which can be made outside of our harvest fields and hog pens, our hay patches and cane mills. It is here we shall find it. To this end the State Agricultural Society throws open the doors of her Exposition Halls, offers her Pre mium Lists to the public, and invites compe tition from every section of the country. It may sometimes suit the interest of small politicians to excite sectional antagonisms in the State; but no such petty jealousy is to be found in the heads and hearts of those engag ed in industrial pursuits. AU are expected at tho Fair in October. Macon unites with the State Agricultural Society in a cordial invitation to every county in the State to be represented. It will impart new life, vigor and energy to every industry; it will dissemi nate knowledge and caltnro among the great masses of the people; it will kindle a lofty emulation among the working classes; it will present one vast field for testing tnoories and trying conclusions; it will cement ns, as a people, iu the bonds of fraternal union, and none should be deterred from fear of defeat— for the triumph of one will bo the triumph of all, and there will bo no rejoicing over any defeat. From the ladies we expect much- yes, ev erything. Without their kindly aid aud hand iwork we shall have no Floral Hall, and with out that ploasing featuro in pertection, tho Fair can never be a jrrand auecehs. The good women of onr country saved ns here about two yearn ago -without their timely aid the Fair cf 1871 would have been au immense failure. Their hearty co-operation now is all we want to insure success. Let us then unite iu oue mighty effort to throw together, in one common display, the grand and aggregate specimen resources of have nothing left us but oar males and lands; our proud old commonwealth. Let it be and, in seven out of ten, these are pledged to * ‘ some warehouse firm for supplies to make this year’s crop with. And yet in the faoe of all this crouching poverty and embarrass ment, we learn from the newspapers of the country that more hind is planted in cotton this year than last, or even any year since the war. No wooder, then, that we should be crying out for more transportation. such an exposition of our pride and our strength ; such an evidence of our skill aud our taste, our genius and our energy, and especially of our love for agriculture #nd our homes, as shall challenge, in kindness, the competition of the South, while it excites the envy and admiration of the world.
