:i lAiite Suruioa. Sitting in a station the other day, I had a little sermon preached to me in the way Hike; and I’ll report it for yoftr beiTcfit, because it taught me one of the beautiful lessons which we a’l should learn, and taught it in such a v natural, simple way, that no one could forget 'it. It was a bleak, snowy day; ihe train was late; the ladies room dark and smoky, and the dozen wo men, old and young, who sat waiting impatiently, nil looked cross, low-spir ited or stupid. I felt all three; and thought as I looked around, that my fellow-beings were a very unaruiable . and tminteresting set. Just then a forlorn old woman, shak ing with palsy, came in with a basket of little wares for sale, and went about mutely offering them to sitters. No body bought anything, and the poor old soul stood blinking at the door a minute, as if reluctant to go out into the bitter storm again. She turned, ! presently, and poked about the room, as if trying to find something; and then a pule lady in black, who lay as if asleep on a sofa, opened her eyes, saw the old woman, and instantly asked, in a kind tone— out agin. My eyes is poor and J don’t seem to find the furnace nowhere.” '.Here it is;” and the lady led her to the steam radiator, placed a chair, anti showed her how to warm her feet. “Well, now, ain't that nice ?” said the old woman, spreading her ragged mittens to dry. “J hauky, dear, this is proper comfortable, ain’t it ? I’m most froze to-day, bein’ lame and wimbly; and not selling much makes me sort of down-hearted. The lady smiled, went to the count er, bought a cup of tea and some sort of food, carried it herself to tho old woman, and said, as respectfully and kindly ns if tho old woman had been dressed in silk and fur— “W( n’t you have a cup of hot tea? Its very comforting such a day as this.” “.Sake* alive 1 Do they give tea to this depot V” cried the old lady, in a tone of innocent surprise, that made a smile go round the room, touching the gloomiest face like a streak of sunshine. “Well, now, this is jest Lovely,” added the old lady, sipping away with a rel ish. “This does warm my old heart.” W hiie sho refreshed herself, telling her story meanwliile, the lady looked over the poor little wares in the basket, bought soap and pins, shoestrings and tape, and cheered the old soul by pay ing well for them. As I watched her doing this, I thought what a sweet face she had, though I’d considered her rather plain before. I felt dreadfully ashamed of myself, that I had grimly shaken my head when the basket was offered me; and as I saw a look of interest, sympa thy and kindness come into the dismal faces all round me, I did wish that I had been the magician to call it out. It was only a kind word and a friendly act; but somehow it brightened that dingy room wonderfully. It changed the faces of a dozen women; and I think it touched a dozen hearts—for I Haw many ej’os follow the plain, pale lady with sudden respect; and when the old woman, with many thanks, got up to go, several persons beckoned to her, and bought something, as if they wanted to repair their first negligence. Old beggar women are not romant ic; neither are cups of tea; boot-lac ings and colored soaps—there were no gentlemen present to be impressed by the lady’s kind act; so it wasn’t done for elleet, and no possible reward could be received for it, except the ungram matical thanks of a ragged old woman. But that simple little charity was as good as a sermon to those who saw it; and I think each traveller went on her way, better for that half hour in the dreary station. I can testify that one of them did, and nothing but the emp tiness of her purse, prevented her from “comforting the heart” of every forlorn old weman she met for a week after. In our wanderings we stopped at Oartersville. This town is rapidly re covering from the destruction visited poa it by Sherman’s humane (!) ar iy; and its growth is not of the mush >om order, ’tis substantial and endur g, as tho largo and commodious ick store houses and beautiful dwell gs clearly evince. Cartersville has a •opulation of not loss than two thous nd, which is steadily increasing. The own is beautifully laid oil’, and w’ll in . few years, should the Van Wert Rail road be built, of which there is but lit tle doubt, be a place of no inconsidera ble importance. Oue of the best hotels m this go-ahead town, is the “Commer iiftl,” at which we would advise all vis iting Cartersvillo to stop, if they want xiud treatment and good fare. All along our route to Rome and Cartersville we found tho wheat har vested, and a more abundant yield has not been realized since the memorable wheat year in Noi'th Georgia of 1855. The corn, cotton and oat crops, present ed a healthy appearance, giving every idication of an abundant yield. [Dalton Citizen. The Blue Ridge Railroad.— R. K. Icott, Governor of South Carolina, and Chairman of the Executive Committee of the Blue Ridge Railroad, has adver tised for proposals from contractors to complete the road from Anderson, South Carolina, to Knoxville, Tennes see, a distance of one hundred and fif ty-two miles. Payment for the work is to be made in the seven per cent, first mortgage bonds of the road, prin cipal and interest payable in coin, and guaranteed by tho State- Proposals will be received until the eighth of this month.—Jour & Mess.

It. —Some anxiety, colored somewhat with curiosity, is being manifested by tho people along the projected line of the Cartersville aud Van Wert Rail road, to know why this enterprise is not pushed forward with more vigour. Some have already expressed doubt and misgivings as to its final consum -1 ionr urcrrCYiG' lin ’td Hbr 1 irit'l’ftjff ''Sift probable abandonment or failure.— We have it from the lips of tho Presi dent of the Bottl'd of Directors, Major Cooper, that the idea of failure has never been entertained for a moment; but that they have met with opposition in the right of way entirely unexpected and unanticipated by the Board,— And that if they had all the tools and hands to go to work at once, they have not, as yet, been able to see their way out of the town of Carters*ille, and that must be settled before a lick can be struck towards shovyiiug dirt or breaking ground even. fSrßoth the oi l Punch and Bar tow Iron Works, near this place, have been purchased by men of capital, some of whom are now here, and wc hope soon to see them in successful opera tion again, together with the old Eto wah Iron Works, which are still in a state of ruins, as left by Gcu. Sherman in his march to the sea-board. It is only a matter of time as to tin ir being rebuilt. The mineral resources togeth er with the water power is too great for them to remain idle much longer* Prospecting parties are still abroad in the land, seeking investment for their capital. Doubtless millions of dollars will find a lodgment in this Cherokee country in less than two years from this time, and Bartow comity is des tined to get her full share of it— Straws show which way the wind blows and it is, at least, gratifying to know that heavy investments are constantly being made in real Estate, all over the Cherokee country of both Georgia and Alabama. Sabi util Eclsoo? Celebration. We are sorry that it was out of our power to be present at the Sabbath School Celebration, at Liberty Grove M. E. Church, near Allatoona, in this county, on Saturday last, but under stand that they had a pleasant time of it. The Carterseville Brass Band made the old hills of Allatoona resound with sweet strains of music, infusing cheer fulness and life into the happy throng assembled on tho occasion. Our young and talented friends James Curry and John A Toon, we learn, addressed the assembled Schools in beautiful and appropriate speeches. These are young men of great promise, and of whom their parents have just cause to bo proud. They are destined to make their mark in this world, if they live. May they advance to the full stature of patriots and statesmen. Young Mr. Litchfield, from Acworth, also made a very appropriate and spirited address, together with sev eral Sabbath School Scholars whose name we did not learn. Miss Henrietta Moore presented a Bible to tho Sab bath School in a tidy little speech of a few moments length. The Schools all united in discussing the merits of the bountifully supplied picnic prepared for the occasion, and all hands return ed home well pleased with their trip. Rev. S. H. Smith. —Rev. S. H. Smith, the energetic editor of the Cartersville Express was in town yesterday. We supposed that ho had struck “ile” as he was encased iu a magnificent new suit of clothes, and had on a white hat.—Atlanta Con. 3rd. Don’t be excited, Bro. Whidby, we were not dressed out, or encased, in a new suit, as you supposed, but had only applied soap and water to the old ones, and made it convenient to pass by your way, hoping that you might be induced to follow suit. Huibert, Superintendent of the W estern & Atlantic Railroad, the other day, paid the usual amount of $25,000 into the State Treasury from earnings of the Road for the month of May, 2©*“ Judge Schley sentenced at Chatham Superior Court last week, three negroes to be hung, and eigh teen to the Penitentiary; nit negroes except two.

ConiPiinicaled. Atlanta, Oa., ) July 4th, ISG9. f M Editor: In dating ray letter, I am reminded that to-day is the Anni versary of our once “glorious fourth of July;” though I must say, that it is to the .people of the South, nothing loss than. mockery. We used to celebrate the Fourth with pleasure and rejoicing, because it reminded us of the fact that we were free and it now only tends to remind us that wo ere not fi'ty and independent. Our people are beginning, however, to take but little interest in political matters, so devoted are they to their farming, manufacturing and merchandizing iu- i terest. If the agitators, or radicals, wish for the Southern people to partic ipate in tlieir quarrels and excitements they will have to raise some other wind —harp upon some other theme, than politics. We are dead to political ex citement. Wc have one advantage of the party in power at Washington.— *\\d£, ’ho \Yoepor*into degradation than we aro already.— Let them send their negro Officers to rule over, and govern ns. Wo have then, already. A few more will sink l us no lower. Let them send on their negro tax-gathers, we will pay them our Government taxes; we aro doing I so now. If ever the political tide should turn—the political wind change —tho political sky clear up, it will be in our favor, it eau be, under no cir cumstances, worse with us than what it now ir. Hence any change at all, will be a change for tho good of the j Southern people. The people arc { finding out this important fact, and are beginning to have nothing to do with political excitements. By indus try, economy, good husbandry and economical appropriation of money and commodities, they arc preparing for that better day to come; which vtiil come as sure as to-morrow’s sun . shall rise. It lias been my fortune to I travel a great deal within the last few , months over the Southern country. — I I have traveled from tho James River ofYirginia, to tho Miasisa : ppi, and from the Ohio River to St. Mark’s, Florida, on the Gulf of Mexico, and points on the Atlantic Ocean, including all the various diversified aud intermediate lines of Railways, and in all my life of travels, I have never seen manifested so great dogreo of Industry. Fine Mills have been built, and others aro going up. Cotton factories have been built, and others are under headway. Railroads have lately been built* and numerous others are being put through. Steam Boats for our Rivers, and Steam Ships, sailing from our coasts, have been built, and others aro being liur-, ried through. A regular goaheadatiix ness has taken hold of our people and has fortunately superceded political ideas. Vast broad fields of cotton, corn, wheat, oats, grasses, &c., have been planted and worked with a vim. The wheat crop just gathered has never been equaled, and other crops, (though wo are now needing rain to some extent,) promises to bo equally as good. With the many advantages of transportation of their surplus crcps, the farmers will certainly have nothing to complain of. They will doubtless find ready markets for their surplus wheat and corn in the cities of Philadelphia, Baltimore and New York; and, I understand, arrangements have been made by tlio various Railroads and the Steamship Company, via the Savannah route, by which wheat and other freights will be put through to New York from your town, and other points along the line of W. &A. Rail road at very reduced rates, and in not exceeding seven or eight days, thus offering great inducements to farmers and merchants. Money paid out for freight by this route goes back into the pockets of Georgians to be rein vested in Georgia. Yours truly, GEORGIA TRAVELER Wo are receiving that valuable weekly, “Hearth and Home,” regularly* The next number, we are informed, will be a specially fine one, both in the variety and excellence of its matter and the beauty and value of its illustrations. It will contain the beginning of the very interesting story, “The Romance of a Rich Young Girl,” by Octave Fuillet, author of “The Romance of a Poor Young Man,” which was every where so deservedly popular by reason of tho singular interest of its plot, the variety, bea lty and thrilling character of its incidents, the artistic skill of the style, and the healthy tone of its mor ality. “The Romance of a Rich Young Girl” will possess all these qualities in an equally marked degree. The illus trations were designed and engraved expressly for this paper in Paris by eminent arti >ts. We can and do safe ly recommend this paper to tlie pat ronage of our people. For further particulars, address PETTEGILL, BATES & CO., 37 Park Row, New York. fiST* It is said that castor oil makes shoe leather soft and pliable and quite impervious to water. A Woman Kliis a ?laa-S|>iii<i hi!* EX cud Open with an A\c I A sad occurrence took place, near Little Prairie, in this county, on Sat-! urday morning last, at 4 o’clock. It seems, from all accounts that we can ! gather, that a Miss Evans, who had | formerly lived with Capt, Jama s M. Denmon, was spending the night at the house of the deceased. At 4 o’clock in the morning Miss Evans awoke from her slumbers, armed her self with a poll axe, aud proceeded tc the bedside of Capt. Denman, who was quietly sleeping, in an adjoining room, by his wife, and, instigated from some cause to us unknown, she wreaked her ! vengeance upon the person of Cape. D., by severing Iris skull with the deadly weapon killing him instantly.— Sho i hou proceeded to. one of his neigh bor’s residences, and confessed that sho had perpetrated the bloody deed, i Sho was arrested and lodged in jail at I this place, where she now uwaits her I trial. Various rumors .are afloat as to the pro liable cause ol this bloody tragedy, nothing that we can trust as reliable has yet reached our ears. Messrs. Pei.iber ton, Wilson, Tayjor & Cos. —Among the many attractive business houses in Atlanta, wo desire to direct attention to the centrally and conspicuously located building of the above gentlemen, which is located on Peachtree and Decatur streets, it is large and complete in all its dcoart ments. Wo take pleasure in calling ettention to then' card in to-day’s pa per. This house keeps well supplied with everything to be found in t first class house, and with Mr. W. J. Land, an experienced chemist in their labo ratory, we are acquainted with no es tablishment better qualified for patron age. In the house arc populir and practical chemists and druggists; while their rooms are fitted up very hand somely. The shelving is tastefully and artistically arranged, causing ii to pre sent an attractive and rich appearance. Their Soda Fount adds very much to the finish and general attractions of this large house, whil9 the showy cases, with their varied fancy articles serve to complete an establishment orna mental to the city. Messrs. Pemberton, Wilson, & Tay lor are thoroughgoing business men. and aro too favorably and widely known for us to attempt now any com mendation of their high and well de served standing. A Doomed tlfy. Independently of other induce ments, it is worth while to make the tour of the ancient cities of Eutaria on account of tho loveliness of their situ ation and the varied beauiy of the landscape encircling them. Take, for instance, Volterraj set on high, over looking tho Mediterranean, the fertile Pisan territory, and a plutonic tract of country at its feet, split and warped into savage fury of chasm and naked ness by internal fires. Its situation marks it finely for a tloom as tragic as that of the cities of the Plain; in deed, one more dramatic, for it will be thrown down from its towering height into a bottomless quicksand below, which is swallowing in immense mouth fuls the mountain on which it stands. Having already engulfed the Church of St. Giusti, it has the Badia, from which the monks have lied in dismay, leaving their remarkable cloisters trembling on the brink of a precipice of sand 500 to 1,000 feet deep, which leans over a treacherous abyss of hid den waters, sapping the unsolid earth above them with relentless energy.— Each year the distance between the precipice and the city is growing less, yet it seems fascinated by the peril.— The massive walls which have stood firmly on their foundations three thou sand years may help induce a feeling of security in their ability to outlive this enemy as they have all others.— But the contrast in sensations is most startling when, after following their circuit for miles in wonder at their hugeness, one comes at a single step upon this tremendous undermining of a mountain of which, at an unexpected moment, is destined not merely to leave no one stone of them on another, but to bury them forever from human sight, and with them the people who trusted to their strength for safety.— It is an impressive spectacle, not only of the transitoriness of all human work, but of those agencies which are preparing the earth for new forms and species of existence. I comprehend sleeping quietly on the edge of a vol cano, or during a battle, for these ele ments of death have in them that of tho sublime, which puts tho spirit on a level with the occasion; but the thought of the prolonged, helpless strangula tion of a whole city irresistably sucked into the bowels of the earth, is awful. No heroism can avail iu burial alive, aud no human sacrifice can avert the the destruction after Nature has sound ed the signal of doom. Yet with a degree of stupidity which seems past belief, the Volterrians once refused to permit an enterprising citi zen of Leghorn to save their city by draining off tho encroaching waters while there was time, on condition of having for himself the land he reclaim ed from devastation. Possibly they feared the loss of one of their “sights,’ which are food and raiment to the poor of Italian cities in general, each inhabitant consoling himself with the reflection, “after me the flood.” The “sight” certainly is one not to be met in other parts.

Fearful Discovery. Are the Internal Kegi n3 in Indiana ? Air. A. Itabb, a farmer who resides about three miles west of the city, brought a strange story in on Satur day. Mr. liabb has a son-in-law liv ing on a farm about four miles from Lafayette, named Miller. Mr. Miller has a German laborer, who, in plowing over a corn field, struck the upper crust of something very much like the infer nal regions. A suffocating odor was first emitted followed by a dense vol ume of smoke. According to tho Ger man’s statement, tho stench was sev eral degrees above the flavor of the, Illinois street gutter. A sheet of flame soon burst from this terrible volcano, and a greatconflagrationjwas imminent for a time, but the flames were finally subdue l by a few shovelfulls of earth tossed iu the mouth of tho crator.— The lava thrown out looked very much like Castile soap, only it was not so highly perfumed. On the contrary, it was exceedingly offensive. It ignites easily, and burnes as freely as brim stone The German was very badly frightened, and after viewing the scene in utter bewilderment for a time, ejac ulated, “Vel, dat ish hell!” We un derstand that Prof. Cox will examine the ground, and if it should prove to bo an entrance into the infernal reg ions, he will send for Parson Brown low to look further into it. The peo ple of Lafayette are greatly alarmed, and already it is said that a roaring noise can be heard underneath that doomed city. We await further devel opments with intense anxiety. Many persons may think this a hoax, but it is not. Mr. liabb doesn’t look like a man who would deceive a wliclo com munity about as trifling a thing as tho discovery of hell in Indiana. [lndianapolis Sentinel 28th. Great Excitement in Decature — A Ghost Appears in Day-time, Whispers, Talks, and Goes Through a Solid Wall —Men Watch at Night for it, Armed to the Teeth.— The town of Decatur has been startled from its quietude by the appearance of a ghost in its midst. The ghost has chosen for its theatre of action a small school-house, to the consternation of the schoolmistress and tho pupils. This ghost seems to be mi generis, for it appears in broad daylight and not at midnight’s mystic hour.— The schoolmistress hears it whisper in her ear, but can see no bodily presence. When spoken to, it answers back, and when threatened with being shot, tauntingly defies the boaster. It has gone through a solid wall, leaving no evidence of its entry. And while the children were assembled in the ante room, good sized rocks came through the ceiling above them, and struck them on the head. Although the chil dren saw the rocks and felt the blow, they could not see any hole in the ceil ing for rocks to come through. Last night several “plucky” young men watched the premises, but the ghost did not put in its appearance. The ef fort to solve the mystery has, thus far, proved unavailing. Os course the ex citement is intense. The Coon and the Carpet-Bagger.— The Baton Rouge advocate is respons ible for the following good story of coons and carpet-baggers: “Isthat coon lively?” “Oh, yes sir, replied tho black pos sessor of as wild a specimen as ever made tracks in the Comite swamp. “Well, I want a real lively fellow; put him on that root,” pointing to the lower knob of a very tall oak, “and let’s see if he will stir himself.” No sooner said than done, and the coon went up the tree like a greased streak of lightning. “You satisfied, boss, he’s lively ?” “Well, yes; but I don’t want a coon in a tree top.” Thefreedman looked up the tree, whistled, and scratched his head for an idea, and said, “Well, boss, dat coon is like a car pet-bagger, werry promising when he’s down , but when he’s up ho aint no use to nobody.” New York, July 3. —George Peabo dy has given another million bonds for Southern education.
