Ilia only m a literary production,
or a* a eftrk of art, in the department
of letters, we propose to speak at
this time of this publication.
h*r* «*n instated, and suppose
it is generally understood that Gen.
A. C. Partington, of Atlanta, is the
author. .
General Garlington is a graduate
of our State University, and before
the war had acquired considerable
distinction at the Bar, in his native
State, Booth Carolina, from which
he is now exiled, with many others,
who,like him, refused to bend
—-Thapia«iathtii«aof tba koaa
rn*a Hula Mr Mis* hvntaf."
It ie not, however, of General Gar
lington, personally, we now intend to
write, neither of hie acts in the
team, nor in the field, but of this,
bis firs* contribution, proper, we be
lie**, to the (he general stock of the
literature ol his oountry.
On this point we are gratified in
toying to our readers that this “ex.
. Confederate officer,” in,the work be
fore tal has sxhibited talent of
high order, and given earnest of very
great deetinction that may be ac
quired by him by a cultivation of his
faculties for this sort of writing. In
ail ages and countries dramatic com
position, whether in tragedy or
comedy, has taken high rank in the
republic of letters. Among the
Greeks Thespis, JSschylus and
SophocIeS acquired a fame quite as
enduring, pej^ape, if not so brilliant
and darsling, as that of Homer-
while ho email degree of Homer’s
greater renown depends upon his
most ddlfol use of the dramatic art
in his master productions. This is
also true of Hilton. The Iliad and
Paradise Lost, while not dramas
proper, yet derive most of their pow
er and impart most oi their interest
from drafts upon that art in whioh
drama m oompletely and perfectly
displayed. Of one species of drama
proper, tragedy, it was well said by
Dr. Biair, “Ho kind of writing is so
great a trial of the author’s profound
knowledge of the human heart—no
kind of writing has so much power,
when happily executed, to raise the
strongest emotions. It is, or ought
to be, a mirror in whioh we behold
ourselves, and the evils to whioh we
araexpgKO; a nubful copy of the
human passions, with all their dire
ful effects, when tney are sutfured to
beoome extravagant.”
It ie in this field of the highest or
der of writing Gen. Garlington has
ventured hiefirstessay—and it shoulu
bs a source of real gratulution to him,
his friendl, his Alma Mator, and the
people of the “South land” geucraliy,
that ho h*l acquitted himself in it so
well.
As stated before, we speak ol' this
“essay,” at preflmly only as a work of
art—as we would speak of the plays
of Shakipeare, Sheridan, Goldsmith,
Byron, Voltaire, Racine, or others,
who have won mental distinction in
the same field. The chief merit in
alls these cases being “the foithful
copying” or languaging “the hu
man passions” with snob excellence
in the execution “a« to raise the
strongest emotions.”
A few samples of the success of
Gen. Garlington in this respect must
suffice to show our readers the
ground upon which our judgment
of the work referred to, thus given, is
founded.

A NORTHERNER B TIMW Or~ SOUTHERN
AFFAIRE.
The peculiar condition of tho South
is truthfully portrayed in a few brief
sentences from a business letter, writ
ten by a gentleman of Columbus,
Ohio, who is now traveling through
the South in tho interest of a rail,
road company. The writer is not
partizan in any senso, and has no in-
terest in the political status beyond
the welfare of the company he rep
resents. After a description of Mem
phis as a railroad terminus, and some
facts as to the backwardness of the
season, and the prospect and prepa
rations for a large cotton crop the
coming season, he says:
“ Politically, the whole country
south of the Ohio river is in a disor
ganized and unsettled state, particu
larly the States of Sonth Carotins,
Arkansas and Louisiana. Bribery
and corruption exist everywhere, and
the people find it difficult to arise
from the slough of political mud in
which they are plaocd. The States
along the seaboard am fannmmg de
populated, owing to tho enormous
taxes imposed upbn the people, and
the money never reaching the treas
ury. Those that can are emigrating
to places where life and property is
more secure. It is said that two-
thirds of tho arable lands in North
uud South Carolina and Georgia will
be uncultivated from lack of men
and means to till the soil. This is in
a oountry too that might be made a
paradise under an honest and just ad
ministration. The facts are disa
greeable, bnt should bo spoken with
truthfulness, and not glossed over os
they aro by designing politicians.”
We are glad to observe similar ac
counts of Southern afihirsin Radical
journals and by Radical writers. The
truth of the matter is, the work of
reconstructing sovereign States by
the Federal Government is beginning
to be understood with "fear and
trembling,” even by thoee at the
North who were most fierce in their
advocacy of them. They begin to
see that publio liberty is not safe in
any part of the country aa long as it
ia threatened in any section; and
they begin to realize that any policy
which cripples and demoralizes any
portion oi a confederation of States,
that its effects will eventually be felt
in the material prosperity of the
whole.
Never can the American Union
attain to its greatest power until the
people of all sections are united in
bonds of national fraternity, and all
legislation is directed to the end that
the equality of all the States shall be
recognised and respected alike—when
intelligence, honesty and patriotism
shall bo the test for official position.
Until then bribery and corruption
must continue to exist and material
prosperity remain orippled and pros
trated.
TRE OMEAT OCEAN CALAMITY.
The full details of the wreck of
the steamship Atlantic, of the Wnite
Star Line, which occurred off the
ooast of Nova Scotia, this morning
was a week ago, have been received
through the New Vork papera. It
is stated there were 95fi souls upon
board the ship, and of that number
only 390 were saved, 66fi going down
to a watery grave.
It seems that the Atlantic was sent
to sea without a foil supply of coal,
thus making it neoessary to touch at
Halifax for ooaling. The owner* of
the vessel are culpable in that they
allowed the Atlantic to go to sea oon-
trary to usual regulations, practioed
for precaution in the event a ship ia
for any cause detained upon the voy
age beyond the usual time
It also appears that the Captain of
the ship, while in oloee proximity to
the dangerous shorerof Nova Scotia,
failed to be as vigilant as the circnm-
stances required tuat he should be in
taking all necessary precautions in
the management of his vessel.
This was a terrible calamity, sur
passing anything of the kind known
for years, if ever. Punishment should
be meted out to pll any way reqranai.

TELEGRAPH TO THR DAILY IN.
THE ATLANTIC.
Nxw York, April 6.—The agent of the
White Star Line bus s fall list, by cable,
of tbs passengers of the AtUaUe, and is
ready to answer inquiries. ^
Three hundred and five survivors of
the Atlsatio strived here this morning
by tbe steamer Newport. It being gen
erally known that they were coining, as
early as lour o’clock anxious crowds gath
ered round the pier and the m-iet intense
excitement prevailed. As soon os tbe
Newport neerad the dock, tbe pier was
doted and none but empl >yea and mem
bers of the press were adm.tted ineide of
tbe gates. Meanwhile tbe commission
ers of emigration had tbe tug Thomas
Fletcher ohattered, and, to avoid the
Urge crowd outside of the piei, ran bar
op close to tbe Newport, aod took tbe
nafertUDs e passengers on board and
■teemed down to Castle Garden, where
tbe aeene baffles description. Tbomsanda
of men, women and children,' of almost
every nation, were gathered, and it was
with the greatest difficulty that they
could be kept from foroing tueir way
through the gates.
TOUCHING BOSNBS.
The poor fellows looked starved, wen
wretohed and miserably olad, and seemed
to lie very much disheartened on their
arrival at Ouatle Garden. They were reg
istered aa usual, after wnich, friends who
were waiting in the information room,
sent in the names of -hose whom they
sought; and as wife and children, a sis
ter or brother, reoogniied one of the un
fortunate men whom they deemed lost,
the eoene was touohing. Men gave way
entirely, and woman either ewooned or
•creamed from Joy, Even outside the
gates men and women who were gathered
iu groups sobbeiland cried bitterly.
Aftet a short time breakfast was laid,
Consisting of ooffee, boiled eggs, tongue,
bom, white bread and butter, and boiled
beef, of whioh the starving men partook
plentifully. Daring he day they seemed
to beoome more reconciled to their fate.

Nsw You April 8.—Barry Jones, an
Englishman, saw two survivors fighting
for the possession of a pair of boots on
» dead body. They flnully decided by
the toss of a penny which should have
them.
Two Swedes deliberately ohoae to 4ie
with their wives and children rather than
leave them and swim ashore.
Ed. Figgins, a Hampshire bricklayer,
and twelve companions in the compart
ment with him, eeoaped by stripping ofl
their olothea and sqneexing themselves
through the port bole. Riohard Reyn
olds, from Queenstown, who sept a diary
during the voyage, chargee that many ol
the orew acted very oowardly. He said
that one man, who eaoaped through tbe
port hole, was wedged in lor several min
utes, unable to move either way, but
finally eaoaped. He (Reynolds; was
lilted by the hair through a port hole.
The lad, John Henry, was tha only
ehild raved. The little fellow cried oat
through the port hole that bis father,
mother and brother were all drowned and
naked to oe helped out. Tho boy was
me* here by bis married aieter yesterday,
»nd was the obrerved of all ohee vers at

between the sister and bar little brother
brought tear* to the eyes of all spectators.

drowned themselves. Others olsmored
to fas returned to ths Island to await Isa

Proclamation by the Governor
Eucrmv* Department,
Atlanta, Ga., April 7,1IT9.
TO the People on Georgia:
The question of cheep tran»j>ort*tkm claim• the
attention of the country. Tne agrleelfcinl Weet,
owing to lnadequete manna for morin«r her im*
enee stores of provision*, end the heavy ohfirgss
axseted for freight thereon, finds herealf. In
measure, without a market for her eurplus pro
ducts. These remain worthless end westing on her
henda because, when shipped to the East cr South,
uch the largest portion of the vales paid by the
consumer U expended on their traoeporUtlon.
Prom the eame cai.bo, iu tbe Santera and North
ern States, the high pilot demanded for food in
creases the coat of labor end, consequently, tbe coat
of production. This forces the manufacturing in
terests of that section, to demand o> Congress legit
lstlve protection to enabU it to compete success
fully with foreign products in our home market.
Nor is its effect upon the Southern Mates lees dt
plorable. Our grsst interest—that of cotton—suf
fers proportionately with the rest, and from tbe
osuee. Furnishing, aa ths South does, the
only reliable article of export, she finds her wealth
annually diminishing.
Tbs reason for tkis state of things is very wslj
known, and it has, for years past, claimed the oarn-
eet attention |of the thinking men of the country.
That attention has beoome intensified ae tha neoee-
slty Increases, and the pressure becomes mors se
riously felt by the masses. At the present time, the
seed means of transportation ie fast becoming
the one all-abeorbtng question of the oountry, and
tha one theft will be moat earnestly pressed upon
the attention of Congress, indeed, so great is the
neoeealty felt by those sections of the West remote
from ths seaboard, that H has been gravely pro
posed that Congress shall take control of the entire
railroad system of the oonutry, and endeavor by
legislative flat to regulate this matter. Wbathes
this wonld result in good, or an increase oi the evil
—whether Congressional management wonld lessen
the oost of operating these reeds, so as to meet pub
lio expectation—are grave questions which I will not
dlpod^ here. I only refer to them to show that s
great, leal necessity underlies this movement—s
necessity so pressing that it does not scruple to re
sort to means so extraordinary.
That water affords the cheapest means ot trans
portation is well known end sekno Hedged. Ths
difficulty has been to find s feasible line for a canal
across the mountain range whioh divides the waters
of the Missis tippi Tetley and the Atlantic. This
long J aought-for route has been found, aa recent
surveys fully demonstrate, in the proposed Atlantic
and Great Western Canal, and It peases through tha
State of Georgia. This work will furnish tbe cheap
transportation so much netded by tha whole ooun
try—will opens home market for onr varied pro.
duots more attractive than that which tbe West now
finds abroad, and, in my judgment, will care tbe
troublo complained of without resorting to tha ex
traordinary expedient above referred to.
Uniting, aa it will do, two greet systems ot navi
gation. its Importance te the whole oountry ia so
evident that It requires no discussion. That It will
greatly increase the production of ootton ia firmly
believed; that It will furulah a home market of yast
value to the food producing section, require* no
demonstratlou; and that It will give us, ot the
Sonth, what we meet need—direct trade with for
eign 'sods—immigration to fill and build up our
waste places, and an Increase of capital for the de
velopment of our mineral- resources, is susceptible
of the clearest proof. The roots has been snrvsyed
end found eminently fsssible. The veralct of the
oountry pronounces it a work of national import
ance and necessity, and what now remains to be
done is to devise the beet and surest means for Its
apssdy accomplishment.
To this end, aa tho Executive of Georgia, I deem
It " 7 duty to take tha initiative. I have invited the
Governors aod ether prominent oiuaena of many of
*' *e*. to meet In AUente on the 90th of May
next, that we may consult upon this important mat
1 need your aid and counsel, also; and I there
fore cordially Invito the Mayor of eacn city in the
State to be present, and each incorporated town
id such deleg' lea aa may beat represent lta Inter
ests. to advise and counsel with us on that occasion.
