A Week in the Mountains.
On Monday morning, August 7th,
we boarded tho sunny little steamer,
Mary Carter, F. M. Coulter Master, en
roate for the mountains.
Our party consisted of Capt. J. M.
Elliott, D. H. Findley, J. F. McGhee
and Geo. iiattey.
Promptly at 8 o’clock the bell tapped
and lines were loosed. The little
steamer backed down into the mouth
of the Coosa and then headed for the
Oostanaula. There was very little of
interest on our way up. We pass on
this trip the towns of Calhoun and Re-
sacca, both immediately on the Oosta
naula river, also bn the W. & A. Rail
Road. Rut little can be seen of either
one from the steamer, and as we were
pressed for time, we did not go ashore
to examine them more minutely.
We tied up the first night some sev
enty miles from Rome. Five miles
above Resacca wo enter the mouth of
of the Coosawattee, a beautiful little
river to look at, but not so pleasant for
steamboating, as it abounds in shoals.
After a pleasant night’s rest, away
from the heat and mosquitoes, steam
was raised at daylight, and at 11 A. M.
8th of August we reached the head of
navigation on the Coosawattee river,
which is on the famed plantation of
Judge Samuel Carter, in Murray coun
ty, Ga.
At 2:30 P. M. the little craft tapped
the bell and left us on the shore, wait
ing for our conveyance to carry us
across the mountains. We were not
kept long in waiting until Milburn Da
vis, a gentleman of color, drove up
with a fair span of mules to a good and
substantial wagon, which wo boarded
and :racked our whip for Ellijay, Gil
mer ccunty, Ga.
Our party now consisted of four, D.
H, Findley, J. F. McGhee, myself and
•Milburn, ihe man and brother, who
was our guide. We drove over seven
miles of the roughest road that man
e ver travelled over on wheels. I will
here state, though, that we did not
travel on the best road from Carter’s
landing to Ellijay, but had to go this
mute in order to find a stopping place
for the night. We came near not find
ing such place, for when we reached
he house recommended to us ns one
where we could stop, they were rather
s J y of us, thinking that we might be
connected with the re venue department,
0 which most of the inhabitants of
jese mountainous districts stand in
utter abhorrence. We finally succeeded
in making ourselves known, and were
“‘lowed to stay over night.
Morning of the 9th inst. we were on
e roa<1 early and found that our road
was much better than we had travelled
°'cr the evening before. It was a
good mountain road—now and then we
would come to what the natives
“ a ed “slants.” We called them moun
tains.
At 1 o’clock P. M. we reached the lit-
i e , to ' T . n °f Ellijay, which is a nice
e village of some two hundred and
‘"habitants, on the banks of the
• " , 1Jay r ‘ ver - Like all county towns,
bri'vf court house and jail built of
c , three churches, two Methodists,
j 0 1 ant * South, one, Baptist, one sem-
r ..^ y ’ ono u«ademy, two hotels, Jar-
s and Mrs. Perry’s, both said to be
ry gO0( l ones - We stoped with the
n ,„ t f e . r an d found it all that we ex-
, ~~good substantial fare, and bo
, at we thought it would be a
place to spend the rest of the
summer, only 75 cents per day. One
newspaper,the Ellijay Courier,a spright
ly oight page paper, presided over by
Samuel Freeman, who, like all news
papermen, is clever and obliging. Long
may he and the Courier wave and pros
per.
The county officers—E. Russell, Or
dinary ; G. H. Randall, Sheriff; Wm.
Ellington, C. C., and A. Bishop, D.
Garren, J. P. Cobb and W. R. Welsh,
principal merchants of tho town.
After a very pleasant stay of a day,
wo bid adieu to Ellijay and passed on
to Jasper, Pickens county, which place
we reached at dark on the 10th inst.—
Here we found no hotel, but found a
pleasant private house, where we were
taken in and cared for by Mrs. Dr.
Davis. The Doctor was absent on pro
fessional business, but his good lady
did all in her power to make our stay
pleasant.
Jasper is not quite so large a town as
New York, but, still, it has its place on
the maps of our land, and her people,
though not so numerous, are just as
clever as any people daro be. Here,
also, there is court house and jail—
former brick and latter stone—both
very substantial buildings; two church
es—Methodist and Baptisttwo flour
ishing schools ; W. H. Simmons, Or
dinary; J. F. Lindsay, Sheriff; E.
Wofford, C. C.; W. H. Simmons and
W. T. Day, prominent lawyers. Both
of these gentlemen were very attentive
and polite to our party, for which we
tender them many thanks. The prin
cipal merchants are J. R. & W. A. Al
len, Howel & Simmons, Wofford, Mc-
Cuichens & Co., and Prather & Allen.
From this place we had the prettiest
view of the mountains my eyes have
ever looked upon. The range imme
diately in front of us is called Long
Swamp Mountain, and is beautiful be
yond description. It must be seen to
be appreciated. It is, according to the
U. S. Coast Survey, in latitude 34° 29’
11”; longitude 84° 17' 55” 141 seconds,
east of Atlanta; altitude 3,290 feet.—
It is over 2,000 feet above the church
steeples in Atlanta, which place can be
seen from its summit on a clear day
with a common field glass.
After a very pleasant day at this
point, we again ordered our man and
brother to prepare for a move on Talk
ing Rock Factory, which place we
reached after a pleasant drive of ten
miles, over good road in the afternoon
of the 11th inst. Here we met a very
clever, hospitable people, and were
treated very clever by all we came in
contact with.
This factory was first built iu April,
1809, and burned in April 1874. It
was rebuilt in February, 1875, and is
now in good running order. It is owned
by T. Atherton & Co. The company
is made up of the following gentle
men : T. Atherton, E. A. Fincher, J.
W. Glenn and S. F. Stephens. Mr.
Atherton is the Superintendent, and
seems to be well fi’ted for the position,
having been raised among the spindles.
He seemed to take much pleasure in
showing us through the factory. Mr.
Stephens is the book keeper and cash'
ier. Messrs. Fincher and Glenn both
give their personal attention to the fac
tory, and if untiring energy and per
severance is any guarantee of success,
they are bound to succeed.
This factory, though small, shows
what practical men can do with ma
chinery in the South. It is run at a
cost not exceeding $25 per day for
labor. We were much pleased with
two operations at these works. One,
a girl some twelve or fourteen years
old, Miss M. Roe. She was changing
thebobins—that is, taking out empty
ones and replacing them with full ones,
without stopping the machinery. It
was done with lightning speed, and
was very amusing to one not accus
tomed to see suoh work done.
The othor was a little girl some seven
years old, making the small cards or
boards to run the spindles; though so
young, she seemed to understand her
business perfectly.
After a pleasant afternoon, night and
morning, we had to take up the line of
march again for another factory. A
distance of nineteen miles brought us
to Cohutta Factory, built and owned
by Judge Dennis Johnson, in 1872-—
This factory is seven mile3 from Car
ter’s Landing, in Murray county. It
is not now running, though in perfect
order. The Judge has had to stop,
owing to the great pressure of money
matters. I trust that he may soon be
able to start up, for these cotton millB
give employment to a class of people
who can hardly make a living in any
other manner. When running, some
fifty persons, men, women and child
ren, earn a living here. We bade the
Judge adieu just before dark, and went
home with one of Murray county’s best
farmers, Mr. James McEntire. Here
we rested and feasted for the night, and
on the sweet Sabbath morning started
again for the Coosawatte, which we
reached at noon at Montgomery’s land
ing. Here we dismissed our man and
brother, he making his way back to
his home, and we waiting for the little
steamer to return from Romo. We
now had somo leisure to look around
among the farmers of this section. We
found them to be good substantial,
well to do men.
We visited the farm of Mr. Oliver
Harris, und found his crops looking
very fine, though he said he had suf
fered from want of rain. Among the
many signs of prosperity noticed on
his farm, one which attracted our at
tention most, was three as handsome
pigs as we ever looked at. They are of
the Poland-China variety, ore a little
over six months old, and will weigh
from 175 to 200 pouuds gross. They
are real beauties and no mistake.
We then went and spent the doy ot
Samuel Montgomery’s, who is mer
chandising and farming. He has a
good farm lying on the Coosawatte. He
also has suffered from drouth, but will
make plenty, even, without rain.
At 6} o’clock on the evening of the
14th we boarded a canoe and started to
meet the steamer. After a ride of some
eighteen or twenty miles, we saw the
little craft puffing up the Coosawatte.
We boarded her at 10 o’clock,tired, wet
and hungry. Seab, the cook, soon ap
peased our hunger, aud we retired and
slept soundly, and found ouraelves
much refreshed on rising next morn
ing. We then went up to Carter’s
Landing, and found a considerable
amount of freight there awaiting the
little craft.
Promptly at 2:30 the lines were
pulled in, and we headed out for Rome.
Nothing more of interest until we
reached Calhoun'on the morning of
the 16th. Here we had to stop for a
while to load some lumber. We were
stormed by a party of Calhoun’s faries,
headed and lead on by Mrs. W. came
the Misses Ws,, Miss M. and Miss S y
all looked after and cared for by Mr.
W. We met their charge with one of
Pritchard’s best melons, which seemed
to put the party in a good humor for
chatting, and we spent half an hour
very pleasantly. Come again, girls,
and if Pritchard don’t go back on us
you will be sure to find the same kind
of fare on the table of the Mary Carter.
Though sad it was, we had to bid adieu
to these very pleasant new made
friends.
We now headed out for Rome in
earnest, which point we reaohed at 5:30
P. M., with a good cargo of grain, lum
ber, etc.
I would say, by way of warning to
Rome merchants, that there is a good
little trade in these mountains for some
of them, and they had better go and
look after it Atlanta has long been
reaping a rich harvest from among
these hills and slants, and Rome, by a
little ■well directed energy and perse
verance, can turn most of it, if not all,
this trade to this point.
Respectfully,
Rambler.
The Queen of England, in her speech
to Parliament, has definitely announced
her assumption of the title of Empress
of India. This addition to the style of
the crown, she is careful to say, is made
“ as regards India,” and she connects the
announcement with an expression of her
solicitude for the welfare of her people of
the Eastern Empire. As to England, she
is still Queen, and the new tide is hardly
likely to be much used, except in offi
cial documents.
The postal card manufactory at
Springfield is running ten hours a day,
and turning out about 500,500 cards
per day, and is 3,500,000 behind its
orders. The number of cards printed
during the quarter ending July 1st was
38,000,000, an increase of nearly 10,-
000,000 over the corresponding quarter
of 1875.
A new Stale l»w of Kentucky requires
that all personal elected to office shall,
before assumingthe duties thereof, make
oath that they nave neither directly or
indirectly bribed voters to secure their
election. The statute will commenoe
its practical application with the candi
dates elected last Monday.
The dull times have had their effect on
life insurance as well as on other branches
of business, and now some of the leading
Hartford (Conn.) companies are writing
only from five to ten new policies dally.
Georgia has forty cotton mills, and
that’s what ails New England.—Detroit
