Johnson, tlic genial uud efficient Secretary and
Treasurer of the Company, and jnterviewedbim
upon the present condition of the road and its
prospects. Mr. Johnson very affably answered
all of our questions and gave us the following
facts, which we submit to the readers of the
Geokuian : Thu present length of the linu
from Athens to Lula, in all, thirty-nine miles,
lias been graded and is now ready for the road
proper. So far, only nine miles of the Iron have
been laid, but the crossdies have been provided
for tlic whole distance. Two hundred and for
ty thousand dollars in nil, has been expended,
and it is cstiu):.teU that about two Jiundred
thousand dollars’'would equip and furnish the
road. The Convpnny' now toil? of debt, and
tlie first mortgage borifls have ltet'n limited to
nino thousand ilollaia of gr^idpl road per mile,
a first class security. Arrangements, we ale in
formed, will soon lie made for Imrrowing the
necessary means to complete the road, as the
Directors, very justly, are unwilling to sacrifice
their stock at present. Mr. Johnson thinks,
that from the present imtlookjthe road’ will be
completed this winter. .'

PROSPECTUS
OF
THE ATHENS DAILY GEORGIAN.
Having for some time considered that
tho progressive interest of our city could
in no way be better subserved, than
through a medium by which to continu
ally advertise tho world of our advant
ages, educationally, commercially, agri
culturally, and in many other respects,
and with already an assuranco on the
part of a large portion of our citizens to
contribute their aid and encouragement,
to our enterprise, we have determined
to issue, commencing Thursday, Sept.
30th, the first number of
The Athens Daily Georgian.
We will issue three numbers of "The
Athens Georgian, the Daily, tho
Semi-Weekly and the Week-ly. Having
engaged to receive the regular Asso
ciated Press'Dispatches, we will present
to our readers, through our Daily, tho
same telegraphic news they receive
in tho dailies of other cities. The ad
vantage tve claim for our Daily is, that
wo will be enabled to give to our merch
ants and trading community generally,
tho foreign and domestic news, market
reports, &c., from 12 to 14 hours sooner
tliau it can be obtained through the
daily papers of other cities. This ad
vantage, it must be admitted, will
he of great service to our commercial
interest. Our Daily tvill enable us to
give our Semi-Weekly and Weekly
subscribers a paper, not only larger
and containing more of reading matter,
hut replete at all times Avith the latest
ncAvs from all parts of the world.
In the conduct of our paper, we
shall at all times, as we have m the
past, be independent in all things,
commending that which is right, and
condemning that which is wrong. In
politics, we shall adhere tenaciously and
unreservedly to those principles Avhich
are protective of the rights of the States,
aud of the whole people, such as are
guaranteed under a common Constitu
tion, and which are ever antagonistic
to corruption, sectional supremacy aud
constitutional disregard.
Each of our issues will contain
liberal amount of reading matter, upon
all subjects, embracing politics, educa
tion, science, literature, religion, agri
culture and the various mechanical and
industrial pursuits. Iu our Daily we
shall devote much attention to the local
as well os general news, Avhich will be
of interest fOjOi)r readers, and we trust
profitable totne > 'gr6Avth and prosperity
of our city.
We cordially invite all who feel an
interest, not only in the ad vancement
of our local interest, hut in the general
development of our whole section, to
come forward and sustain us with their
patronage, promising on our part to
spare no exertions to make
THE ATHENS GEORGIAN

and interest to our whole people.
