ON TO VIRGINIA. The Formation of the Hon eysuckle Club. VERACIOUS ACCOUNT OFTHEIR TRAVE1S “ I Can’t Promise to Protect You from My Passengers.” RANDOLPH AT SUNRISE Otto of 'I'ho Honeysuckles Makes it Speech. VV '■ VIRGINIA. Fiom Our Special Correspondent. On the Train, July 20, 1873. THE SOLITARY HORSEMEN. t w.is evening, and tbe sultry sun poured its hottest beams upon the Atlanta Car Shcl, when a solitary horseman might hate liet n seen wending his way through the ciof. d that surrounded the sleeping car on tbeW. A A. It. It. Casting a look of lofty distil in on the gaping mass that hung about the .Vet of Lis weary stted, he rode oa into the uenrt of the car, had his horse put into an v.ppei berth, unbuckled his helmet, and, with an dr of easy grace, advanced to meet three abcr solitary horsemen that came wendinj their way into the other end of the car. The first solitary h. was your corres ponden in puBinee of his travels. The other solitary h's deerve a more extended mention at my hands The foremost one was A. J. McBride, well* k now i as Atlanta’s very best man, a thorough geiiHonan, a capital merchant, and as cir- cumshnce.s will show, a nonpariel traveling compmion. The second was Mr. J. A. Smith, a valu*d partner iu the firm of Moore, Marsh a Co. and a mau who, with this immense backiig, is as modest as a girl, and yet as firm as an adamantine rock; a model merchant w Lo has grown rich off the only capital that Cod fives to men, viz: hard common sense uud mswerving integrity. The third was J. Kmhall, a mau of fine talents, and one win, when misfortuue drove his brothers out d the State, remained here like a man, pulle.l off his coat and went to work as a me- i hanc. He is now Superintendent of the Western and Atlantic liailroad shops, and fully worthy of his responsible position. THE HONEYSUCKLE CLUB. Tie ordinary greetings over, the following conversation took place: Snith—I am broken down with, hard work, and I long fora frolic—a genteel, easy, rest ing rolic. SfcBride— So do I. K znball- So do I. Cor’sp’nd’nt—So do I. Snith. (affected at this unanimity of senti- u.eut) — Well, if you fellows will join me, I will propose that we devote this whole week to pleasure. That we lay no plans and pro ject uo trips, hut justfloat. Just go where we please, and do what we please. Header, this bright proposition came dart ing into our gloom as happily as a Jane sun beam rests on A hay-rick, and we acquiesced in it with all tbe heartiness in the world. McB.—But, in order to make the thing a . nccesu, we shail organize a regular club of four, and give a name and shape to it Smith—I’m in on the club idea. Let us call ourselves “The Rest Seekers.” Kimball, (alittle more hilarious)—“Why not call us “ The Lunch Puniihers ? ” (T’sp’ndnt, (slightly sarcastic)—“Why not “The Social Sapsockers.” Just here a little person with a small chin and an open ear, and eyes that wept when he laughed with his mouth, come into the con versation, preceding his entrance with a little apologetic wheeze, saying: 0 “Why not name yourselves the Honey- s ;eble Club?” What on earth ever possessed this person without chin to strike such a happy thought, we never considered, but instantly pounced upon the name, and invited the «-ijinless party to j oin us in a bumper of black berry coi dial to the new' clul>, wishing it a happy trip and pleuyof adventure. Having tUrn signified to the gentleman without a c— tLut on occasionsot inspiration like the above we should be pleaded to have his suggestions, w. waved him out of our presence, au l he re- tin 1 with Momos perched upon Lis lips, while tlie goddess of sorrow' dwelt in his H EADQITA.

A NIGGER IN THE WOODPILE Ju*d after the Honeysuckles had retired for ih* night, the sleeping car door was opened, and a gentleman from a Northern clime en tered. He was accompanied by his wife and a negro girl. He had engaged three berths by telegraph w hich were already made up for h:m. In one of these berths he proposed to put his negro nurse. Hughes, the conductor of the car, objected and he and tbe Northerner had some very bitter words, which rising to an unusual pitch stirred the club from their couches. Surly and enraged at being awa kened, they stood in a clump, half dressed awaiting the issue of things. The Northern gentleman was getting very much lifted up, when Hughes, as a happy thought struck him, leaned over and said confidentially: “ My friend, not only am I going to refuse to let your negro sleep in here, but if you persist in indulging in such Radical senti ment I cannot promise to protect you against the passengers. Ycu see that clump oi them gathered over yonder (pointing to us), they are every om desperate men, as you may guess from tbe dangerous glare of their eyes. That tall, fair-haired fellow has killed his dozen, and is ready for another at any time. Those men may pitch you oat of the window at any moment, and your negro after you. Now, won’t you be quiet ?” The poor man from Maine quieted and hustled his servant into a second class car, and the Honeysuckles having involuntazily done a brave thing, crept into their couches, little dreaming that they were expected hourly throughout the night to issue thence in regular KuKlux dress and tear their aboli tion fellow passenger from limb to limb in tin most approved style of the latter-day demons. SCENERY DONE UP IN PINK RIBBONS. The lordliest regions in all the woild arc the rich, clover growing valleys of Virginia. Nowhere else does such an air of plenty and prosperity breathe through every feature of tbe landscape. There are great sweeps of meadow swarth, green and glossy, drowsy with the hum of the brown coated honey-bee, and fed by little silvery brooklets, that gush out from, the Lord knows where, and babble and prattle like, the Lord knows what; wheat fields stretching way out into the far off, to where the gold- tipt tassels, softened by distance and trem bling under the dalliance ofthe June breezes, give one an excellent hint of a minature Mediterranean; broad and ample acres, dotted thickly with perfnmy hay-ricks, and filled with crowds of happy men and women tying the sweet stuff into ■ hapely stacks, and brown armed young A polios, with shirts flung back from chests on which w omen would love to lay their dainty heads and die, handling rakish pitchforks * o-.^ing the fragrant bundles—like a good fume, richer and sweeter in death than UnA rise as mountains aLove dozing in the forward sunshine ; patches of clover, miles across, that send intoxicating whiffs of perfume down into the car windows as we rush past, as if some mountain God had dashed every drop of dew born the night before, with Lubin's best; mountains, with white clouds for summer caps, covered with tall pines, shaking delicate babamy odors from their aris tocratic heads; oaks, sturdy and strong- hearted hickories as graceful as slender wo men- millions of bushes, prolific of berries— dandelions that throw kisses to the jaunty redcaps of the clover below, and “honey suckles” that nod gaily to their name sakes gazing out of the windows sweeping by. “ MY CATTLE ON A THOUSAND HILLS.” Everywhere life,in its fattest and finest form, enlivening every patch of land. The finest cattle in America; the melancholy bull and the pensive cow in the very exuberance of health and fatness, standing knee-deep in have tempted Eoropa. the milk white mate of Jupiter, or given coasolation to that doughty bull which tiadition tells us bad an unfortunate little difficulty “on the bridge.” The cattle of these valleys oi Vir ginia are nonpareil the world over, and would open the eyes of any cotton-crazed far mer of Georgia who don’t think clover rais ing would pay. McBride was very much excited over the scenery and the cattle. (Now', McBride, you know, is a person who always rises with his subject You put McBride to a subject, and then send the subject to the top of the Hima laya, and see how far behind McB. will be. THAT SHREWD YOUNG KOltVAL. Says McB.—“I tell you, gentlemen, this thing of the dappled kmc gets me. There is a smack of something huge about “ feed ing my cattle on a thousand hills.” It beats newspapers, merchants, and crockery men all to pieces. Young Norval had the right idea about these things. When he intro duced himself he didn’t say, “My name is Norval; on Georgia’s hills mv father iuns tbe Atlanta Herald. ” That wouldn’t have helped him a bit; and probably they would have shook him at once, on hearing this statement. He didn't say, “My name is Norval; on Georgia’s hills roy father runs his crockery store.” Not a bit of it. He was in, on the 1 high tariff schedule, and sticking his hands in his vest pockets he said, “My name is Norval; t on the Grampian bids my father feeds his \ flock s. ' That settled the tiiiDg. That cashed bis druft. This cattle business is the lofty old thing at last for solid merit. Cotton don’t [ nigh touch it.

In the meantime, McBride, perceiving that he had caught the attention of the inmates of the sleeping car, raised himself with his sub ject, and went to work on an enlarged schedule. A HONEYSUCKLE MAKES A SPEECH. “Ladies and gentlemen,observe the scenery; oblige me, if you are not too busy, by observing this scenerj\ See those noble mountains rear their beautiful crests way up yonder, and those valleys crouching way down yonder. See those torrents rushing down their angry flanks with as good a head as the Great Western Canal will have. Also, see these mountains raising their majestic heads into the clouds, and those beautiful valleys lying so peacefully below them; and those torrents ! gushing like a maiden’s tears down their sides. See those mountains, beautiful em blems of God’s pow'er, raising their heads up, etc; and those timid valleys hiding from the sun’s angry glare, and those streams ot water rushing from the wilderness as a fox from out his cover. See those mountains, as 1 said before, rearing up, as I said before, and those valleys shuddering beneath their frowns, while the waters rush iu torrents, as I said before, making a beautiful book of scenery’’— “ Illustrated with w'ood-cnts,” remarked the exasperating Party w itLout a Chiu, pointing to the piles of wood packed along the track. “Yes, observe those mountains raising themselves, those valleys hiding themselves. Observe, if you please ; observe these—yes, those mountains rearing themselves ; see those—ah, er—er—ah— those — er— er—val leys and er—er—torrents, if yon please, what scenery! what mountains, and—and—and— what —er—valleys — and — er—er—what tor rents, by Jove!” And this orator sat down, while we set about waking up the passengers, and rubbing those who had fainted. McBride caught us by the sleeve—“Couldn’t make a speech, hey? They didn’t know I was from Atlanta. You tike an Atlanta man, and hanged if he cau’t do anything he takes a mind to! I woke ’em didn't 1? Maybe can’t make a speech when I try. Maybe I ain’t an Atlanta man? Maybe not, but it seems so, somehow' or other. Come and let’s tike some cordial. I’m an owner of dappled kine, and a regular Atlanta shepherd.” Randolph’s reform. We whirled past a mountain just now that is celebrated among the natives as the one to which Randolph made a pilgrimage to see the sun rise. It is said that he was an atheist and a scoffer at religion until he went on this mountain, just in the gray of the dawn one morning, with a body servant, to see the sun rise from its topmost peak. When the mag nificent sight flashed upon him, his soul caught the inspiration and he bowed down in adoration to the great God of the universe; and from that moment a thrill of religions enthu siasm went streaming through his body; from that instant a powerful undercurrent was started, which ebbed and flowed through his system till be went out with the great tide that washes the off-shores of eternity. THE COMTLETE SQUASHING OF AN OBNOXIOUS CHARACTER. Smith went for the Chinless Party to-day. He slew him. For several hours he had been worrying Smith with questions, and that usu ally benign man was getting a little lifted. “ What might your name be ?” says the P. ith out a C. “Smith,” replied the disturbed Honey suckle. “Ah,” (reflectively) “scerns to me I’ve heard that name somewhere before. What might your first name be ?” ‘John—John Smith.” ‘John Smith, hay ! Pretty name, pretty name ! Where might you live?” Here Smith gave it up. Wheeling right square around, he planted his eyes full on the party’s face. I ‘Sir, my name is John Smith—I’m thirty- six years old—live in Atlanta—am a merchant —shave three times a week—have eleven shirts — don’t chew tobacco—do smoko—prefer boots to shoes—don’t wear paper collars—belong to the church—am a Democrat—wear socks— keep the commandments—go to bed early— get to breakfast -don’t eat okra, but love squashes—take a drink when I want to— don’t carry a pistol (wish I did)—love my friends, and don’t like to be bored to death by a man that I’ve only met once, and never want to meet again. Will von have any more information ? The crushed party didn’t say a word, but from his looks we could tell he had enough. I don’t believe he cared about knowing an other thing about Smith. He quietly rolled back in bis seat, and imitating the example of a brook in the summer lime, ho “driedup.” * (SUCCESSORS TO YARNELL, LEIGH & CO.) Commission. Merchants, FOOT OF MARKET STREET.

After a day’s ride through this fresh, de licious, perfnmy country, we reached Lynch burg, that great market of the tricked nico- tinous weed which “cheers but not inebriates.” Thence to Charlottsville, where six hundred young men meet to spend money in streams, and get learniDg in broken doses. On to Staun ton, the greatest city for female colleges in America—and yet to Covington, where we get a superb breakfast, at a little uest called the Cocbill House—past a hundred stations, adorned with well-filled hotels, each the portal through which you reach one of the hundred summer resorts of Virginia—on to the White Sulpher Springs, the gathering point of Southern notabilities, where the Honeysuckles made their first halt. Filing in their white dignity and soiled dusters through the line of cottages, they came to Peyton’s desk, and registering themselves, were sent off to a neat little perclpng place on Alabama row, where for the present we will leave them. King IIans. sprinkles. Dr. George Graham and his beautiful bride, Miss Sallie Shaver, of Atlanta, ] were on the train, intending to do up the i springs in a bridal tour. They stopped at Staunton lor a day or two—thence to White i Sulphur. I asked a Georgia Railroad negro the other day if they ever run night trains on the Wash ington Branch Railroad. “Not ’ceptin’ when Mars Bob Toombs wants to go any- whar. They’ll hitch up and pull out for him any time.” What a tribute to greatness ! Some one was mentioning that the Herald men had, hanging on the railing in their ol- fice, the picture of “ a man who was talked to death.” “Yes,” says Kimball, “and judg ing from the way Bob Alston can throw it into a fellow, I should say that the man died right there.” I don’t see any sense in this joke, though it created some fun. Tbe Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad cost $100,000 a mile. Kimball acknowledges that there’s nothing “down in the State of Maine” to equal it, I consider this quite a point I gained. When we walked into dinner to-day who do you suppose we saw at the table engaged in earnert conversation with John Cochran, the Washington banker? Why, the party with out a chin. l. h. E.
