A Flue Prospect#
Col. W. H. Hulsey, of this eity, brought
to The Sen office yesterday, two stalks of
cotton messuring over three feet high.—
It is from the farm of his father, Judge
Hulsey, and himself, and was raised on
what is known as the Bellwood-Hulsey
farm, two miles from Lithonia aud six
teen from Atlanta, on the Georgia Bail
road. The stalks went full of squares,
blooms and one well-lormed boll. This
was not a specimen, but his whole farm
is as good. Hisoorfl is in the tassel, and
is as high as he can reach with his cane.
There was not a pound of guano used on
the whole place, but is produced on up
lands. All the fertilizers used were pro
duced on the plaoe. The same gentle
man last year made seven hales of ootton
on seven acres of ground in DeKalb
county. This was done by honest,
straightforward farming, which is worthy
of emulation hv ull grumblers who are
dissatisfied with thia country.

Tbs saiNim Inin of the Odd Fel
lews in search of aa El Dorado among
the mountains of Northeast Georgia, left
the Air-Line Depot yesterday morning
amid tbe hoaaaa of something near a
thousand soak. It was emphatically an
odd exonnion of very odd fellowe. If
the behavior and general appearance of
individuals can be taken as the oonntar
sign of thia time honored fraternity, we
hesitate not to pronounoe every paasen
per of that excursion entitled to all the
privileges and immonitiea of this organi-
It was an odd train, consisting of odd
cars and ooaohea, engineered by odd en
gineers, and loaded with odd fellows.
That everything might be in keeping
with the spirit of the occasion and the
enterprise, via.: an Odd Fellows oelebrs-
tion. The steam engine wee reversed,
passenger ooachee were furnished in
quality from the palatial sleeping oars
down to poetical dump oarta.
Every person was there, and his wife,
too, and sweethearts without number.—
Then were two trains; and the confusion
and distress eonseqnent upon the separa
tion of husbands and wives, friends and
lovers, sweethearts and brothers, was
heart-rending. Wa apeak from experi
enoe. Our duleina was there. She was
in the other train. Our rival was with
her. Excuse this melaneholy strain, dear
reader; but we did enjoy ourselves.
The lint thing that attracted our atten
tion was the gentleman with
AN ENqnBINO MIND.
He was a philosophical man. He was
profound. His inquiries were of the
most obatrnse nature, evincing tbe meet
elaborate and systematic thought. Hi

That was a stunner. It was incom
prehensible. It was oonfounding. There
was a oomplete silence. He asked tga-n,
confidently believing that ha was a hu
man benefactor. Finally some one sit
ting in the sun shine, in an open oar, ex
claimed that he had a ticket, a dollar
ticket, wbioh he would sell for tot oenlt
The gentleman with the enquiring mind
desisted. The surrounding passengers
beaeme suddenly conscious that they
s not enjoying themselves. They
soon forgot themselves, though, aud sur
rendered themselves to the fascinations
of the
who were ia attendance in high spirits,
and great profusion. Every passenger
was a member of the press, bnt it was a
very oppreasive press, indeed a perfect

nevertheless just as flourishing as if it
were named. “Zigxag Lightning," how

perhaps The manses of earth that were
scattered far and near oan be saan yet—
Umbrellas are dangerous to the railroad.
They had better be left at home. We
were continually on the alert looking for
THE DIAMONDS
spoken of in the advertisement of the ex
cursion. We were anxious about this.—
Ws always had a fancy for theta play
things. We ransacked tbe oars and for
aged the country. We found tome
jewels—pretty little gems, weighing n
hundred or more, in the psasenger
but we could not piek
up. They were Intangible.—
Moreover, tome person claimed priority
of diaooTory. We abandoned the search.
After all what eared we for jewels. We
were fortune-hunting and nothing leas
than diamonds would satisfy ns. We
searched every nook and oorner. We
wen wearied; and finally appealed to the
engineer for a berth near tbe awfnl soli
tude and the lowering, over-awing sum
mit of the smoke-stack. We fonnd the
diamonds, or rather they found us, Ren
they eame, sparkling with a thousand
scintillations of “pnrple and gold," and
orowned oar head in a hale of oalorifio
radiance and inflamed our eyes with an
aurora-like tinge, more becoming a blab
bering ohild than an Alpine sunrise.—
That was bliss We had fonnd the El
Dorado. We praised ye prinoes of ricli-
ae—Pluto and Dives I But atop ! there
ia a mist before onr eyas The diamonds
oaasad to sparkle; they oolored, they
blackened, they died. We retreated from
the El Dorado. We were blind. Our
eyes were full of oharcoal No more
diamonds if yon pleaae.
Moral—Don’t be eager after riehes—
yon throw sand in you eyes 1
But what is very humiliating to oar
pride aH these demonstration* did not
stop the Odd Fellows excursion. We
had reached

AN OASIS
The iceberg* (Eiehberg) of the North
were afloat amid the lemon groves
(Grooves) of the Booth. The sovereigns
of this little refreshing domain, were
peerless prinoes in hospitality, and to
Messrs Eiehberg and Grooves of the Re
freshment Committee, tbe pnmnngrra are
indebted for many pleasant moments.
And to Messrs McAffa, Franklin and
others, tbe exonraionista owe mnoh of
their day's enjoyment The accommoda
tions were not snch aa they had oon-
traded for, they having made arrange
ment* with the other railroads to furnish
elegant passenger coaches for the oooa-
sion, bnt this oontraet was violated, and
left those enterprising gentlemen depen
dent on the alim resource* of the new
road. The gentlemen did everything in
their power to render the day agreeable.
HAVING ARRIVED
at the Gainesville depot, the concourse
of one thousand passenger* marched into
the metropolis of Hall, amid the oon-
steraation of her hospitable oitlsena—
They had expected fifty or sixty visitors
Imagine their surprise when a throng a
mile in length traversed their qniet
streets.
Gainesville is an enterprising plsoe of
about one thousand inhabitants, situated
npon a lofty elevation, and enjoys water
and air, which for parity stand uurivaled.
Preparations had been made for onr re
ception. A platform had been erected,
and a dancing hall provided. After a
quadrille and a waltz, Col. Redwine, of
the Gainesville Enqle, gave us a few words
of weloome, and introduced to the audi-
enoe
oen'l EVANS,
of Atlanta, who had l-eeu selected aa
orator of the occasion by his brothers of
Order of Odd Fellows His response
to the welcome of Colonel Red-
wine was ch-rncterued by that
earnest, serinns expression of grat
itude which so eminently become*
him. He oomplimeuted Guiusville and
eulogised Atlanta, and commended the
zeal of both in binding themselves to
gether by the to-I) band of civilization.
He found the diamonds. He discovered
them in the true-hearted men and patri
otic women of North-east Georgia. He
said further that Atlanta had a diamond
weighing about five hundredponuds, the
Phot Boy of the Orns'llutitm. The little
Boy’s absence was regretted, be said, but
it was replaced by the good-looking gen
tleman of the Son! (Thanks, General,
but really you flatter ns.) Immediately
snooeeding thia address, Master Scbu-
mate of Atlanta, made
A SPEECH,
whioh, for softness of speeob and tender
ness of articulation, oan find its parallel
only in some of the improvisations of
Corinne. Judging from his white hair
and unoertain gait, Master Scbumate
must be a veteran in his country's oanse.
His age has oeitainly reached three 800re
and ten weaia. The old gentleman in hi*
address was a little confused, but donbt-
lesa the sentiment of his sjieeob partook
of tbe pathos of his manner and attitude,
bat they were lost to the audienoe.
. THE DANCE
ws* renewed and continned until the hour
of three, when the uompany dispersed,
prooeedad to the depot, quarreled for
good aeata, indulged in a general jnbilee
and came home rejoioing.
THE object
of the excursion was to rail* funds for
fitting up and famishing the new Odd
Fellows’ Hail, on Marietta street; and the
whole amount realized—probably six or
seven hundred dollars—will be devoted
to that very laudable purpose, and for
which no oitisen will regret having con
tributed his mite. "
MAYOR’S COURT.

Tht Boer DaSaalitellr as Lowry.
Yesterday the Mayor sounded Jonsen
before “books” aud found out that the
piokings of the pnlioe bone would be
poor, very wisely sent Alderman Lowry
to try his hand. When we got there
Kicklighter, Jonsen, Lowry and Pat.
Fitagibbon were playing “mumble de
Peg" ont in the shade of an oak, and
had just put tbe peg on Paddy, as the
hoar oeme round for openiug oourt.
Everybody oonneoted with the oity gov
ernment looked like they were ashamed
of something. Jonsen whispered to the
Mayor pro lent, about som- thing, which
we afterwards learned wax that Jonsen
tried to get the pro to apologias to the
audienoe tor the failure of the show, bnt
the pro would do no snch thing. He or
dered the books open. A great flourish
was made when two oases wen only re
ported. Thia to sickened pro that he
jnat cleared the docket at one sweep of
hi* pen and got ap and left Both Otises
were dismissed, and not a oent in the
treasury. The stockholders* meeting of
the Gourgia Western ahotild keep this
sad fact in view when they meet next
week and regulate the steam accordingly.
The bear ia evidently on Lowry. His
Honor proper never did adjourn without
some money.
Wo were pleased to have Col. MoAdoo,
of Milledgeville, call on ua yesterday.—
He is now Presi-h-nt of an important
Bailroad Company, the St Mary's aud

J. Nororoae wee permitted to apeak.
He had been in n meeting of prominent
citiaens in relation to the Western Rail
road, and presented some resolutions to
the Council asking their adoption. [See
proceedings in another plaoe of thia
paper.] Mr. Nororoae urged his resoln
tion* with some pertinent remarks in the
way of discriminations and freight tariff
as now praetioed by railroads radiating
from thia oity to its great disadvantage.
As the city had greater interest in the
proposed Western Road than any other,
and aa Atlanta had a controlling vote in
its management, be thought it a good
plan to establish certain rules, which he
had drawn np, for the better protection
of the interests of the oity. The resolu
tions and remark* wens strongly advene
to ontaide monopolies and Groan Line
operation*. The remarks were well-
timed and appropriate. The matter was
refeirod to a committee of five.
Council agreed to meet Tuesday night
at the Mayor’s offioe to oan van tbe sub
ject of the Western Road more thor

ATLANTA AND SAVANNAH RAILROAD.
The satweription of 4250,000 voted to

that business for the present.

votes and ties were had, and the usual
amount of plain and novarnlahed talk
dealt in, till by oommon oonaent the
thing quieted down and the contestants
looked ashamed of themselves. But it
appeared to the outsider* that saoh mem
ber of the Oonncil was afraid the other
was getting more than his share of per
quisites in thia atreet bnaineaa, and did
not hesitate to apeak it out Some broad
