TJH STATE AORtrUETCKM COXVXNTIOS
A T BRUSH WICK,
Our delegation lull (.’opyns at mid.
, night of the sixth insb, and had a very
pleasant, or unpleasant time, .“owing to
| each man's peculiar situation, toCamak.
When we boaided Uiy tars at Cooyrrt,
we found a few delegates from up the
road ; lively, jovial fellows, with whom
wo passed a very agreeable time, to
Brunswick. At every little lown along
the lino of the Georgia Hail ltoad our
number was steadily ii creased, and by
the time we reached Camak, the junc
tion of the Augusta and Macon roads,
our party was swelled to a considerable
size.
We reached C’am&k at six, on the
j morning of the seventh ; finding that
Millie place still hearing unmistakable
evidence of thp visits ot the devastating
tornadoes of last Spring ; though still
possessing life enough to be prepared for
our reception. All that was necessary
on our part, was to wake up a liitlc ne
gro, who proved to be in somewhat of a
sulky hum'* Vt being thus early aroused
from his lvappy slumber. Having pros
•cured a box of matches, one of our
brother delegates from DuKalb, t be
lieve, humbled himself to the task of
kindling a fire j while said little Darkle
sallied forth to the wood pile, about a
quarter of a mile off, seemingly, for an
atm full of wood. Wc were soon hav
ing a jovial time around the cheerful
hearth stone. And to crown our felici
ty, we were regaled at breakfast time
with “a cup of Coffee," (which wo judged
had taken the homestead, from the fact
that we could never bring it to a settle
ment,) at the very reasonable charge of
fifteen cents a clip, Luckily for us we
had our own lunch along.
At a quarter past eleven we bid adieu
to C’smak ; willing, yea, anxious to pro
ceed. A few minutes ride brought us to
the little town of Warrentous neat
thrifty, nr.d evidently enterprising!
wearing, even in old age, the freshness
and bloom of youth.
A few miles further on we came to
Max field; young, ragged and ugly;
looking somewhat forsaken, though stili
defiant. Something may Oe in stole for
it. Who knows?
Culverton cornea next; small, neat
and wearing an air of exceeding good
health, from the fact Uiat T itts l’ilts,
Simmons Regltl 'tor and ome other gen
tleman's Expectorant Were blazoned Up
on every fence, out house and old shop
in the place, and in fact almost every
thing animate and inanimate where
space enough could be bad for a display
of the painter’s skill.
Next comes Sparta ; beautifully situ
ated, evidencing thrift, prosperity and
comfort—with mOro pills, regulators and
expectorants.
Next in order is Milledgevillc ; whose
glory is departed. It was once the Cau
dal of our noble Commonwealth. Its
descried Slate House still slan;>s a
monument to Georgia’s past gW y. A
spirit of sadness and gloom soems to
hover around its deserted walls, which
once echoed the eloquence of Georgia’s
most gifted s ns.
From Milledgev’.lle to Macon there is
no place to claim our attention in this
shell and hurried report.
We arrived in Macon at four o’clock
in tlie afternoon. Wo Were immediately
interviewed by a durkie porter from the
Dally House, who at length prevailed
upon us, as we hud to lie over until iotu
next morning, to beoomo his guests ; a
decision which we had no cause to re
gret, from the fact that we were splen
didly entertained— a sumptuous supper
and good bedding for the small sutrf of
fifty cents. Do not take our word for it,
but when you visit Macon call anti test
the merits of the Dally House, and be
your own judges.
We left Macon Tuesday morning, the
Bth, at tour o’clock. Our heads are now
turned in the direction ot Brunswick for
the first time since we left home. For
more than forty miles below Macon we
did not have the opportunity ot seeing
the country, as we passed before light.
But as soon as daylight revealed to us
the general aspect of the country, we
were struck with its monotonous charac
ter. Low, flat, piney woods, too poor
for anything to inhabit, it we except
gophers and salamanders; evidence of
j whose presence could be seen on every
j hand. Though we should not neglect to
! mention the oue item of lumber in which
commodity they seem to be doing a
thriving business Not the gophers and
| salamanders, but the few ot A lam’s do- j
, scemhints, who dispute the possession of
j the country with these burrowing qnad
| rupeds. Most ot their shipments being
made at the mouth ot the Altumaba r.v
, er —though Brunswick is doing a very
| lively business in the lumber trade.
I One hundred and tarty-six miles from
Maoou we cross the Atlantia and Gulf
Rail Road, at Jessup, a very thriviug
• little city, which we have ttu doubt will
eventually b' a place of oinsderable
importance.
Thence to Brunswick we bad the same
monotonous scenery ; varied vvitli th :
live oak, oppress and palmetto.
To Brunswick at ast, after a ride of
about four hundred miles, —hut I should
have stated that by this lime otr party
had so increased that we numbered the
greater part ot the Convention. We
L wore m t at the and. pot by these who had
’ preceded u-, and by a host of citizens,
accompanied by the Brunswick Cornet
Band, to welcome as to the end ot our
journey. M e were banted up by the
citizeus, (*ich man of whom knew ex
actly y.’no he was in quest ol,) ushered
indo carriages and carried to our respect
] live quarters. Getting dinner, we re
! turned to the hall in time for the after
noon session. We found the Hoot
occupied by Dr. Pendleton iu an address
on tlie value of fertilizers, as shown by
experiments on the Agricultural harm
at Athens, which a-M-vs* the public will
get in full lrom the proceedings of the
Convention.
Tuesday night; grand theatrical en*
teflainmont, lot the benefit of the Kpis
copal Church, occupying our hall, there
by deprived us of the pleasure ot a
night session. A'so a banquet at anoihc
el- place, for the benefit of the Baptist
Church, which we were generous enough
not to attend.
Wednesday mottling; bright and
beautiful, Convention met, called to 0r
<),.,• by the President. Address by Prof.
W hite ol the State University on Agri
cultural Cliemistiy. Also a very pithy
speech by the lion. Mr. Horne ot
Twiggs; opposed to Commercial Keitili
zers ; replied to by the Hon. Mr. How
ard of DeKalb; n lively duel ot big
guns. Also an address ou fish culture,
by Dr. Cary.
Before adjournment it was announced
that au excursion boat would leave the
wharf at two o'clock in the afternoon,
lor the light-house aud the Ocean. It
is needless to add that our delegation
was on hand. Our trip was a very
pleasant one, rendered more so by the
martial strains of Dixie, by the band,
which accompanied us. \\ e crossed the
sound und steamed out into the Atlantic
several miles, and returned to the city by
sun down.
At night; address by Dr. Tucker,
Chancellor Of the State University; on
the dignity ot labor ; the best thiug of
tiie kind l ever heard ; a synopsis, even,
of which 1 will not attempt to give, as
it was voted a p'ace 011 the minutes of
the Convention.
Thursday morning, the closing session
of the convention. After considerable
business of more or less importance, we
heard the report of the Executive Corn
mittee, which spoke well of the standing
of the State Society.
After the report ot the Committee,
we had an address on Entomology, or
perhaps a great number of your leaders
would understand it better as I>ngologv,
by Prof. Humphries, of Virginia; the
ultiinatioc ot whose labors is tho de
struction ot the Cotton Catapillar.
The remain ter of the s ssion, unim
portant, adjourned at one o’clock, p. M.
Nothing remained for us to do but tio
gel our dinners, gather Up our baggage
and pay our bills; which, the getnerons
citizens of Brunswick considering we
were there on an invitation from them
selves, very magnanimously put board
down to the extremely low rate of sixty
dollars per' month, Doesnt Conyeis
want a State Convention ? It so, send in
your invitation !
I am of the opinion it will be- a long
time before it will meet again in toe
Live Oak City of Brunswick.
'The next meeting of the Convention
will bo in Gainesville,Hu 1 county. And
when the delegates from the low country
visit her mountain region, let us hope
that her citizens, for the take of their
own reputation, as well as that ot ah
North Georgia, will not try to guess so
exactly at the contents of their Pocket
Books
