Horfce Resources and their Bear ing upon the Future Prosperi ty of the State. The evident diminution in the com mercial activity of the seaports of our 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 ment. 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 ins v die JJispaich. One thousand bushels of pota toes was the reward John Barber, of Pacific City, received for the cultiva tion of two acres of ground. 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 doubt mainly because such a division can not be becoming unless long tres* ses are sacrificed, and few of the belles will consent to tiiAL It is fortunate that such is the case. not de ny that a handsome girl adds to—can 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 not like to see the custom become gen-’ eral. We are of the same opinion in the matter as was the gentleman of tilting hoops, who said : “Well, I— rather do like tillers, so long as they are worn by other fellow’s wives.” *1 ex Acres Enough. — The question is frequently asked, “How many acres ought a man to cultivate in tanning?” We answer, “All that he has capital and brains to manage properly and profitably, whether it be ten acres or 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 which can, with propriety, Ve Assigned in farming as in other business.

It is utter folly to talk about “ten acres"— being “enough,” or ten thousand— We say, / to every man according to his several ability.’ ISenoia 1 Senoia Journal. “ 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 ton, looking up at the column of the Place Vendoine, during her late visit to paris. “ l lie pillar of Napoleon,” she was answered. “ Well, I never did," she exclaimed; “and that’s his pillow—he was a great man to U3e that! But its more like a bolster. And it’s made of iron, I do believe. Ah, Isaac, see what it is to be great! flow hard his head must have rested on his ironical pillow!” A lawyer was once pleading a cise that brought tears into the jurors’ eyes, and every one gave up the case as gone for the plaintiff. But the op posing councel arose and said: “ May it please the Court, I do not propose in this case to bore for water, but—” Here the were suddenly dried, laughter ensued, the ridirculousness of the case was exposed, and the defen dant got clear. The New Usury Law.— By a law approved Dec. 11th, 1871, interest 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 cent. When no rate of interest is specified* the rate shall be 7 per cent. Suits to recover usury heretofore paid, must be brought within six months of the passage of this act; and to recover usury hereafter paid, suit must be brought within six months after such payments.
