The evident diminution in the com

State, and the danger of still greater
losses to our legitimate trade from the
grasping-policy of Northern railway
magnates, interested in rolling every
thing possible over lines of railway
under their own control, to their own
market, has awakened investigation
into those sources of productive indus
try which yet remain within our reach,
and invite capital to profitable invest

By taking the city of Atlanta as a
centre, and sweeping around it with a
radius of from one hundred to onehun
dred and twenty miles, there will be
found to be situated within the North
western semi-circle the following
among other mineral deposits: The
Coosa, Black Warrior and Cahawba
coal fields of Alabama; the Lookout
and Red Sand Mountain coal fields,
extending through portions of Alaba
ma, Georgia and Tennessee
The bituminous and semi-bitumi
nous coals within tins district are su
perior in quality, being admirably ad
apted for all purposes of iron manu
facthre, for the generation of steam,
the making of gas and for domestic
uses. The workable beds of coal
range from three to se' en feet in thick
ness. They are e*tsy of access for
railroad transportation, and are gener
ally so sitiffitedas to Ids mined with
great facility. The aggregate thick
ness of coals in place is from thirty
to forty feet, and the extent of conn
try though which coals can be found
and mined easily, within the limits of
the States named, is greater than in
Ihe States of Pennsylvania and Mary
land. In addition to the coal beds
there are also to be found within this
wondrous semi-circle, in'exhauMible
beds of iron ore, limestone, fire-clay,
soap-stone, roofing-slates, grind-stene
quaries, ochres and pigments useful
in the arts, quaries of white ah varie
gated marble and paving-flags.
The region leferrcd to is opened up
by oumerous valleys through which it
will be easy to gain access to the de
posits of troii and coal at almost any
point where it may be desirable.
This vast mineral wealth has hitherto
remained almost unimproved, and to
a great extent unexplored. Within a
recent period, however, the veil has
been partially raised, and the eager
gaze of the geological explorer, the
the practical miner, and the iron man
ufacturer, has taken a realizing sense
of the vast riches stored up and await
ing the application ot a reasonable
amount of capital and intelligently di
rected labor.
With such vast VeUotirces as those
above alluded to, it is not difficult to
foresee that when capital shall have
been enlisted and avenues to market
provided, the State of Georgia may,
at no distant day, take equal rank in
its manufacturing and industrial ope
rations with Pennsylvania or Mary
land.
It was not long ago that we men
tioned in these columns that the dis
tricts of Northwestern Georgia, South
eastern Tennessee, and Northern Ala
bam4, were being explored by geolo
gists and miners. The preliminary
labor of these gentlmen Lave been
completed, and we purpose from time
to time to avail of the opportunity off
ered to give the public some results
which cannot fail to be of interest
The four northwestern counties of
the State, namely: Dade, Catoosa,
Chatooga and Walker—contain the
coal fields of the Lookout Mountain
and the extension of the Black War
rior coal fields of Alabama—locally
known as the Sand Mountain coal re
gion. The area of coal-bearing strata
in the above counties is estimated by
Doctor Stevenson to be about 240
square miles, and in all its beds to con
tain not less than ten millions of tons
of coal to the square mile, an Amount
sufficiently large to satisfy any Condi
tions of trade or demand in all future
time.
The same authority states that the
country bordering on the coal region
to the south and east for one hunden
miles, is Sn inexhaustible field ot iron
ore of the best quality, which being
in close proximity to the coal, will en
able the manufacturers to conmpete
with those of any other country. The
manufacturers of Georgia have far
greater resources of iron ore, of better
quality than that gs Pennsylvania, al
together inexhaustible and in immedi
ate contact with the coal—Georgia
has the Hematite, Black Band, and
other iron ores, not only in the carbo
niferous regions, but also in the silurian
and primary non fossiliferous regions.
From Northwestern Georgia and
the adjacent State of Tennessee, forge
blooms and pig iron to the extent of
thousands of tons have beefc produced
and shipped via the Tennesee river to
Pittsbrg, and even to Philadelpia afld
Tork, where the superior quality
is so much appreciated that these irons
demand readily seven or eight dol
lars per ton over those of tue Pennsvl- !
vania and New York manufactures.
Below the coal region, both geologi
cally and geographically,in Polk,Floyd
Harrison and Carroll counties, is the
locality ot immence beds or quarries of
roofing slate, suitable also for billiard
tables and mantels. When it is re
membered that ouly three or four lo
calities in Vermont and Pennsylvania
furnish similar mat- r.als quali
ty, the importance of these deposits of
roofing slates cannot be over estimated.
There are nlso to be found throughout
tliis same region, beds of materials
suitable for grind stone3 and paving
flags, together with fire-clay and soap
stone. These va'uable articles, are in
such great abundance t*at they can,
without doubt, be quarried and placed
on cars for transpoitation at cheaper
rates than from any known locality in.
this country. These valuable mineral
lands are mostly in a state of nature,
and are consequently in first hands
held at the nominal prices of any lands
usually found in a sparsely peopled
and mountainous region. Sufficient
exanination have, however, been made
to insure the superior quality as well
as the immense extent of country over
which they are to be found. When
equal advantages of transportation
and access to market shall have been
provided, there is no reason why these
lands will not have attained to the
same value as those in Pennsy vania,
whore an equal amount of territory is
now valued at over fifty millions of
dollars.
The Southern Pacific.
The Pittsburg Commercial, inoneof
its issues of last week, had the follow
ing paragraph:
It is reported that Col. T. A. Scott
and his friends haye virtually with
drawn from the Union Pacific Road,
although he is yet President of that
company. The interest that has suc
ceeded to the management is under
stood to be the New York Cential.
The experience of the last two months
with the snows of the mountains has
seriously qualified the prospect of the
road for all time to come. Meanwhile
Col. Scott has been pushing his con
quests in a more gcniAl climate, lbok
in£ to a continental crossing that will
be liable to no extraordinary obstruc
tion
This fc&s significant of sottte new
movement by the great “ Colossus of
roads," and it becomes all the more sig
nificant upon the appearance of the fol.
lowing paragraph, taken from the
Washington Chronical of Tuesday:
The arrangement has been perfect
ed by which the Texas Pacifiic Rail
way passes into the hands of an asso
ciation of capitalists under the leader
ship of Col. Thomas Scott, President
of the Pennsylvania Central. The
Texas Pacific extends from Marshall,
Texas, to San Diego, a distance of
2,090 miles. It is entitled to a grant
of 13,440,000 acres of public lands
from the General Government, besides
a grant of lands from Texas. It is
said that Col. Scott contemplates the
use of the narrow gauge in its con
struction, though this will practiall}
isolate it from the other railroad lines.
By the new arrangement, the most
powerful railway combination in the
world has been completed.
It has for a long time been apparent
that CoJ, Scott was cognizant of the
great advantages that would accrue
from the possession of the Southern
Prcific route, and he has been steadi
ly moving in that now
he has the whole thing in his grasp.
It is hardly probable, however, that he
will attempt the experiment of a nar
row gauge over a trans-continental
which will ultimately become the prin
eipal means of transporting freight and
passengers between the East and
West.— Atlanta Sun.
The Mortgage Law.— The Geor
gia Legislature has passed an act pro
viding that debtors who mortgage
mules, crops, cattle or stocks of goods
to creditors, and then sell or dispos e
of the property io otters without con
sent of the creditors, go to jail for a
year or pa}' a fine equal to double the
debt. So look out debtors.— Hatak

Parting llair in the Middlb.
EfFeminateVnen li&ve long-considered
it the thing to part the hair of their
heads in the middle, while, on the oth-
I er hand, dashing young women, given
to masculine ways, delight to appear
with s*ort curly hair, parted at the
side. In both cases the “parties*' show
themselves in their true character. It
would be well if the law allowed them
to change costumes tvitb each other.
fey a Paris letter it appears that this
side parting is to be a fashion. We

can not be becoming unless long tres*

that such is the case. not de

we say her beauty ? or, rather her style
by parting her hair at the side, but it
gives an air of fastness that we should

the matter as was the gentleman of

is frequently asked, “How many acres

We answer, “All that he has capital

ten thousand.” There is no definite
amount of land to which every man
should be restricted. Capital and
capacity to manage are the only limits

“ My dear,” said Mr. B. to his wife,
while his smiling countenance indicat
ed the consiousness of having done a
good action. “ I’ve just had my life
insured for your benefit.”
“Well, I declare," said Mrs. B. look
ing round upon her family and friends
with an expression of injured inno
cence, “just to think of the selfishness
of men, and particularly of husbands.
There, you have been and had your
life insured, while your poor wife may
go without any insurance on hers."
“ What’s that?” asked Mrs. Parting

may be collected, by written contracts
at any rate not exceeding 10 per cent
per annumji contracts exceeding this
rate can only be enforced at 10 per
