Ballard of New York city. Trade with the North. —Tbe resumption of traffic upon the State railroad between At lanta and Chattanooga; altords us an outlet to the North much speedier than that by the torturous and uncertain chanuel of the yel low Savimnab. We imagine that this will hereafter be the favorite route for passengers, and that freights both and coming will be forwarded by this line of communication.
