.4. Generous Sentiment but an
Unwise Policy.
The New York Herald has been giving
utterance recently to some most generous
sentiments towards tbe South. In its issue
of a lew weeks since it had this to say edi
tonally:
Give the South all the Money It
Needs.—We trust that the proper desire
for economy now shown by Congress will
not interfere with the appropriations for the
South. We are in lavor of giving the South
nil the money the people need. Let us give
money to improve navigation, open harbors,
build public'buildings etc. Let us do what we
can to stimulate sjiecial Southern industries
—cotton, tobacco, rice and sugar Let us,
if it is in the power of Congress, make that
rich and beautiful land to blossom with new
lite. In dealing with the South let us always
remember the hard condition of the war—
the money we took when we freed the slaves,
when we compelled a repudiation of her debts,
when we seizkl cotton, when we ravaged the
Valley of Shenandoah and marched through
Georgia. And while these were all war
measures—which we should do again under
the same necessity—let us remember what a
burden it was to the conquered, and liow it
crushed them to the earth. Whenever, then,
we can give the South money in appropria
tion bills, in shaping revenue or financial
legislation, let us do so. We should be quite
content if for the next five years three-fourths
of the money voted by congress were to go
into the Southern States alone. Whatever
we do for economy let us give tbe South all
the money she wants.
We of the South must necessarily value
and appreciate the spirit of generosity mani
fested in the foregoing, still the policy being
violative of the spirit of the constitution and
not at all in accord with true and safe Dem- 1
ocratic principles of government, it cannot i
command our endorsement.
The extravngnnt and indiscriminate ap-
jiropriations of monies and lands by Congress
to public enterprises and improvements, un
der the guidance ol sjieculntive corporations
furnishes one of the blackest and most un
pardonable records of the Radical adminis 1 *
tration. It has leen this which has largely
contributed to the increase of Federal taxes

Camp Meeting.
We enjoyed the pleasure of attending a
camp meeting at Poplar Springs camp
grounds, last Sabbath Leaving Hartwell
about three o’clock in the afternoon on Sat
urday, the representation from Hartwell,
comprising some of her fairest and sweetest
flowers, went directly to Franklin Springs
where they passed the night. We found a
large attendance at the springs and all seem
ed bright gay and festive. Those who are
weary of the toils and cares of life—who wish
to quail for a spell the oblivious waters from
Lethe’s sacred fount, and in the wondrous
solitude of Nature forget all else but Nature’s
God, should visit these Springs. Here hearts
worn out by trial may rest and be refreshed
—here those who are tired of the surging
billows of a rude and buffeting world, may
enjoy that sweet solace and precious joy that
“ the pathless woods and lonely shore ” 80
abundantly afford. The Springs are located
down in a deep glen shut in on each side by
the hills. The spot is as sequestered as it is
romantic; the soft tender spirit of poetry
apjiarenty pervades the very atmosphere and
the imaginable influence of woodland nym
phs seems to enshroud with a magic charm
tbe entire scene. While rousing near nigbt-
fall)in this lovely spot, the western sky w as il
luminated by » gorgeous sun set which sent
forth a magnificent glow over the entire
scenery, all nature hushed into quiet stillness
at the near approach of the dark shadows of
night and inspired by the fairy form that
attended us, your correspondent involuntari
ly sent up from the very depths of his soul
the sentiments expressed in the opening lines
of Childe Harolds address to the Ocean:
Oh th»t the desert were my dwelling place
With one fair spirit for my minister,
Tlist I might mil forget the human race
And hating no one love but only her 1
But this is not getting to the camp meet
ing. Sunday morning having refreshed our
selves on the delicious viands that graced
Mr. Bond’s richly laden board, wended our
way along a road* as thickly dotted with
stumps as the firminent is with stars, to
Poplar Springs a place not unknown to fame.
Camp meeting! has been held annually at
place from “ the time when the memory of
man returneth not to the contrary.’’ We
found the encampment largely attended.

This road which for so long a time lias
been looked to by the people of Athens as
tho one thing needful for our future growth
and prosperity, will bo completed during
this week. When wo say completed, we
mean the forty miles of tho road extending
from Athens to the Air-Line Railroad.
The road proper will not be completed un
til it reaches Rabun Gap, there to connect
with the Knoxville and Rabnn Gap Rail
road. The immediate good our people are
to gain from this road will be in the re
duction of freights and transportation. As
will bo seen from a notice elsewhere in this
, - paper, already lias the Georgia Railroad re
duced tbe passenger fare from Athens to
Atlanta.
We now being more directly connected
with the Northern markets, by the Air-
Lino Railroad, of course we may expect a
reduction of freights upon competing lines.
The extent to which this road, even with
such advantages given us, will benefit
Athens depends altogether upon Uie
amount of spirit and, enterprise our peo
ple manifest in making it the means of giv
ing new life and impetus to onr commer
cial and every other interest. Then let the
completion of tho road, which will be this
week, be met with a lively demonstration
on tho part of our whole community. By
all means let us have a big barbecue, and
such manifestations os will show our appre-
Y ciation of this enterprise. Let oar friends
iVom the up country and along the line of
the railroad be invited to attend en masse.
If thin cannot be don e sooner, let it take

true, honest democratic principles upon which
we now invite the American people to
plant themselves, that au overthrow of these
evils mi; be found in a grand reform or our

We have been surprised that some of our
Southern representatives in Congress have
favored this policy, even calling upon their
State legislatures to pass resolutions authoris

part of tbe Federal Congress. No, let us of
the South have no hand in that, the tenden
