ATLANTA. GEORGIA.
Thursday Morning, April M. 1807.
The Proa* Association.
Our brethren of the press who were present
at the recent gathering In Atinuta have reached
their homes, and their papers containing the lin-
pressious made upon them whilo with us are
coming to hand. We propose to reproduce in
our columns such extracts irom those articles a*
refer more particularly to our enterprising city
and its various improvements. Wo commence
with tho remarks of our friend, Dr. Andrews, of
the Americas Citizen. After a brief reference to
his trip in this direction, tho Doctor continues:
The Convention not meeting till night, the day
(Wednesday) was spent in perambulations and
carriage rides through the city and suburbs, nt
tiie expense of the liberal merchants and busi
ness men of tho - place, who did tho hospitalities
and honors of the'‘Gate City” towards the
members of tho Press Gang of tho South, in a
style that left nothing to be desired. There were
representatives present from nearly every South
ern State, besides a tew from the North, and the
occasion will long be remembered with pleasure
by those on whom the cordial greetings and gen
erous appreciations were so lavishly bestowed.
The article then alludes to the courtesies of
the Atlanta press, and proceeds:
In the afternoon of Wednesday, carriages
were furnished and the whole fraternity took a
Very pleasant ride, under the pilotage of Drs.
Simmons and Orrne, through and uround the
city, with a view to show us what hod been done
and was doing to rebuild the waste places, aud
to reconstruct Atlanta in a material point of
Everybody knows that General Sherman left
this city in ruins. What the cannon balls of the
Union army did not demolish was utterly de
vastated by fire, except a fractional part of the
city occupied by the poorer classes, and situated
in the suburbs of the place. Every railroad de
pot aud machine shop, every factory and store
house, and every aristocratic dwelling, nearly,
were given up to the destroying angel. The
city was a wreck—one vast pilo of rubbish ami
confusion. This was the state of thiugs three
years ago, but now what a change has come over
the scene!
At first, rude shells of wood dotted the late
site of Atlanta, and people began business in a
primitive and limited manner, but rapidly these
trail tenements and temporary lodging places of
trade gave place to liandsome and even splendid
structures of brick, and with the exception of
the immediate vicinity of the railroad depot,
where the debris of Thompson’s hotel and adja
cent buildings still mar the beauty of the pano
rama, we see but little evidence of the terrible
destruction that existed at the close of the war.
Now, long rows of three-story buildings are to
be seen on event hand, filled with merchandise
and produce of every description, and every
where is heard the sound of the artisan’s ham
mer and trowel, busily engaged in the work of
reconstruction.
In our ride away from the center of the trade
wo were perfectly astonished at the extent and
character of the improvements made, in the near
and more remote suburbs of tho town. We
passed through various streets aud highways
where beautiful residences with neat surroundings
were everywhere to be seen. We also visited
the Atlanta Mining und Rolling Mill Company,
which is under the superintendence of that well
known and very energetio gentleman, John D.
Gray, Esq., by whom the various processes of
melting ore and torging blooms, bar iron, round
iron, &c., were shown and explained to us. We
did not learn the number of hands employed in
this large establishment, which is not yet com
plete in its arrangements, but presume that hun
dreds of stalwart men will here find constant
Hnd profitable employment Mr. Gray told us
that the company will soon bo ready to manu
facture car wheels, railroad iron, &c.
Here. then, is ono secret of Atlanta s growing
prosperity. It is nut umy me great distributing
depot of western trade and the great thorough
fare of travel, but it is going to be the great
work-shop of Georgia—the scat of mechanical
enterprise and the home of the enlightened and
cultivated mecliauic.
Of all the places in the South, Atlanta is the
point to which Northern capital and industry
will tend with the greatest prospect of success-
lul investment. There is already a considerable
sprinkling of the Northern clement, which, bar
ring its radical politics, is the right kind of ele
ment to “ go ahead ” in all vast and useful enter
prises. Already it is in contemplation to bring
the water ol the Chattahoochee river a distanco
of seven miles through the city, and out into the
head waters of the Flint, for the purpose of af-
I fording the power of manufacturing to an indefi
nite extent. This, we understand, was the idea of
Gen. Sherman, and the day is not distant when
a canal will bo constructed with a fall ot some
;)00 feet, with sufficient power to move the ma
chinery of tiie world, at and near the “ Gate
City" of Georgia! Let Macon and other cities
of the South take example from tho latter in en
terprise and energy, if they do not intend to be
outstripped in the race of rapid development
und progress. Let tho material interest of tiie
State lie fostered, and tiie moral aud intellectual
will follow with unerring certainty, Lot provis
ion be made for the physical wants of the citizen,
aud it will not be long before his mental aspira;
tious aud ideal and. spiritual nature will reccivo
proper attention nnd cultivation.
But wc are extending our notice to an unrea
sonable degree, and must close lor tiie want of
pace to soy all we desired to say in reference to
tie present condition and future destiny of
ilautu. With a salubrious climate, fine wafer,
avorable locality, railroad facilities, and tho iu-
omitahle energy of her people, that city is sure
become the “ gate ” to the boundless prosperity
d opulence of her people, if a permanent set-
ement of our political troubles is ouce an nc-
omplislied fact and public coufldeuce is again
stored to our section.
For the many courtesies received, while at
tlanta from her merchants and citizens, we
nder our unfeigned thanks, and promise our-
lves the pleasure of another visit, to witness
e realization of their fondest hopes and our
rediefiona concerning their inevitable future.
From tho M«con Journal and Messenger.
Southern Pres* Association.
The Association assembled in the city of At-
nta on Wednesday morning lost, and the vari-
us representatives of the Press were tiie recipi-
nts of much kindness, courtesy and hospitality
om the public spirited and liberal minded busi-
ess men of Atlanta. We were very kindly
own through the various and tiie more recent
- provements on our first arrival, by a committee
f gentlemen who plnced at our disposal quite a
umlier of carriages, and the Press, generally,
erned to enjoy the ride very much.
This visit was particularly pleasant to us, af-
rding us, as it did, an opportunity ot mukiug
e acquaintance, and we hope securing the
iendship of our editorial brethren, whom, from
ur close application to business, it had not been
ur pleasure to meet prior to that time. To our
iends of the INTELLIGENCER aud New Era, we
pccially desire to express our gratitude lor
any courtesies while in the city. The occasion
■as one long to be remembered by the Press
ang, und one reflecting tiie greatest degree of
redit upon our sister city, Atlanta, which ranks,
our humble opinion, aa the mo9t sprightly, en-
rgetic and business making city in tiie South.

sister, Atlanta, (ono not knowing tiie native
goodness of the speaker would have supposed
that lie Steeled his heart agninst the opinions
expressed by his friend Mr. Glenn;) the Bard
ol tiie New Era, who was oxpectod to sing the
praise of woman, responded to tho call made on
nhn by acknowledging ills appreciation of the
lines:
The world wus sad, llic garden was a wild.
And man, the hermit, sighed till woman ainlled ;
but, although he had conto prepared to respond,
lie must, on account of tho lateness ol tho hour,
it being then nigh t welve, anti the disposition on
his part to elaborate, turn tiie subject over to his
friend Dutchcr, who alluded, in a few brief re
marks, to the subject as one that should ever
call fortli a response from mankind. After n few
more remarks by Major Steele, ol Atlanta, and
Mr. Withlngtou, of Savannah, and several we
do not recollect, the convocation was dismissed.
On Friday evening, after the adjournment of
the Association, tho members of the Press-gang
availed themselves of tiie invitation of thatPnncc
of Railroad Superintendents, Campbell Wallace,
and proceeded to Marietta, on an excursion train,
prepared for that purpose, making tho trip to
and from Marietta, with an hour pleasantly
spent in viewing that village, in two lion j and
fifteen minutes, the excellent engine IoanJwe, un
der a heavy press of steam, showing tiie Press-
gang what she could do.
Wo shall always lookback upon this visit to
tho Gate City as one of the moat pleasing epi
sodes of our life, and must express our sincere
hopo for the welfare of her citizens, in all their
undertakings.”
Annexation ot Mexico.
We clip the following in regard to the proba
ble future of Mexico from tiie Washington cor
respondence of tiie Charleston Mercury of the
17th :
It is confidently asserted in unofficial circles
here that secret negotiations are now going on
between President Juarez and Secretary Seward
relative to tiie establishment of more intimate
relations between the Uuited States and Mexico.
The apparent inability of Maximilian to hold
out much longer and the shocking condition of
tiie interal afiairs oi the Mexican Republic have
inspired a belief that the negotiations above re
ferred to will culminate either in the formation
of a league, defensive nnd offensive, between our
government and that of Mexico, or else result in
tho annexation of that country to tho United
States. The latter, of course, would be the more
desirable to those who believe in the territorial
extension doctrine, so recently illustrated iu the
costly purchase ol the Russian possessions.—
There is something pleasing to the masses, how
ever, in this acquisition of foreign territory. It
strikes their fancy; and no matter how expensive
it may he, they generally go in for it, and sustain
the administration by which it is brought about.
So after all, it may be beneficial to the country
at largo to get possession of Rusaian-America,
while any sort of allinnco with Mexico will
doubtless be looked upon ns a step in the same
direction—ultimntely to lead to the same result.
There is one obstacle, however, in tiie way of
any Mexican alliance or acquisition that might
be gotten up between Juarez and Seward, and
that is, tiie known hostility of the present ma
jority in Congress, to any increase ot political
power in a Southemly direction. Such as would
be inferred, at least, in case of an attempt to an
nex Mexico. There seems to bo no doubt that
very important and interesting questions will,
ere long, spring up concerning tho future action
of this country toward that Republic—which,
having demonstrated its inability to govern itself,
may possibly seek some sort ot protection from
this “great and glorious government of ours.”
Holden iias met iiis Match at Last.—A
sensible colored man in this city was a listener nt
the African Church, some lime since, when Mr.
Holden addressed tho colored people there. His
s"iWke'r - iala'on'IHS. curios . it y 10 V’°' v wha . 1 , ! 1 °
colored man to give some account of it. He re
plied substantially as follows:
“ Well, air, I listened to despeoch, but I could
not tell you much about It, for I couldn’t help
thinking all tiie time and saying to him in my
mind: You first fooled de old Whigs,den you
fooled do old Democrats, den you fooled de old
sccessioners, deu you fooled Mass Zob Vanco, den
you fooled President Johnson. Now, who you
got to tool next V Why, you thinks you'll tool
de niggers; but, sir, you'll neber tool dis one."—
Raleigh Sentinel.
We commend the above to the attention of
those enterprising office-hunting patriots who are
running round day nnd night—especially at
night—endeavoring to mislead tho freedman and
array him in hostility and bitterness to liis former
owner.
Forney.—The editor oi “ my two papers ” is
much exercised lest the recently enfranchised
should not go tiie radical dodge straight through.
He throws the following handful ol dirt iu his
last Press:
The Democratic press of the country, follow
ing the orders from their New York ctiief, have
joined the Corps d'Afriquc, and arc drilling vig
orously. Like raw recruits, always the first ef
forts are somewhat awkward, hut, in time, all
will go well. Unctions words now fall upon the
surprised negro from lips that, a month ago,
never opened but to curse him. In a short time
tiie rich African Iragranco will doubtless be as
seductive and alluring a war-cry of tiie Demo
cracy as was the rich Irish brogue of old. Wo
recommend to these anxious neophytes, for their
own comfort, the careful study ot .Michelet ou
the mulatto character.
The New Orleans Rioters.—The follow
ing paragraph occurs in the news columns of
some of our exchanges:
A report comes from New Orleans that some
ol tho July rioters in that city are to be tried by
military commission, by order of General Sheri
dan. The jurisdiction oi tiie military com
manders under tho reconstruction act docs not
extend lor any purpose over an ofleusu that took
place prior to the second day of last month, and
that a military commission would not have au
thority to try the July rioters. Should sucli
commission, however, assume such power, try,
and convict, the proceedings would be set aside
by the government.
