Grand Pacific Hotel, Chicago, Jnne 31, 1873. In writing this letter, the first of a seiies i descriptive of our excursion from Atlanta to Chicago and back to Atlanta, we desire to preface it by saying that we shall speak of things as they look to us, and of people as we find them, so that the value of our letters shall consist in iheir truthfulness. At precisely ten o’clock r. m., the eighth instant, “All on board” was announced by the conductor, and we started for this great city. Our party consisted of twenty, from among whom were Jadge J. T. Bothwell and wife, Hon. J. O. Matherson and wife, of Augusta; Mr. V. K. Tomy and wife, Hon. E. E. Rawson and daughter, C. E. Boynton, Esq., and wife, Hon. Tom Good- . .... now and wife, besides several business men | at Auburn and at Opelika; it is good, I have i here; I stay here most of the time; I know Mrs. Julia H. Barnett and family; I have known them eight or ten years; part of this time we lived just across the street from each other; Miss Julia was a little girl five or six years old when I first knew her; they lived iu the SAine house with rue just after the I storm in Auburn; I think they lived in my house about one month; they lived just across the street from me about a year; they then moved off some 400 or 500 yards, but in the same village; I think they lived in this second place some two years; I have one daughter: Miss Julia Barnett was frequently at my house; there was frequent visiting between the families; she may have been five or six, or may be seven or eight years old when she staid at my house; I think I know her character as a pure, chaste and refined young lady; it is good, I know the society in which they moved from Augusta and other points in Georgia. The managers of the State Iioad readily con sented to allow the beautitul car, “State of Georgia,” to go with the party to Columbus, Kentucky. Ail were determined to do their full share to render the excursion what it was iutended, a “pleasure trip.” The ride from Atlanta to Chattanooga being in the night, of course nothing was to be seen. AT CHATTANOOGA. At o'clock Monday morning we arrived at Chattanooga, stopping only long enough to transfer baggage and our car to the Nashville road. The ride from Chattanooga to Nash ville was pleasant: the scenery is picturesque, first through a deep gorge, then around the foot of mountains, through levels and over summits. In passing so rapidly through this mountain scenery we were newly impressed with the terrible power of the Gr£at Creator ot the Universe. The terrible convulsions of nature that made this scenery so beautiful, speaking through those mountains silently but more impressively than man can. The Nashville and Chattanooga road is in good order, and the trains make fast time, but the cars are much below the average of first-class roads, and inexcusably dirty. The managers are censureable for this, and we shaii gladly note improvement in this direc tion. We arrived AT NASHVILLE at 1 p. m. ; found much excitement on account of the cholera, and many leaving the city. Our stop was only half an hour—much to the re lief of oar party. From Nashville to Colum bus, Ky., we passed over the Northwestern road at a rapid speed—over thirty miles per hour. This road is very straight but pretty rough—passing through much new country. Nothing worthy of special interest, except per haps the bridge across the Tennessee at John- sonville, which is very high above the water, affording a fine view of the river and sur rounding country. The cotton and corn gen erally looks well, the wheat and oats poor. ^ ^ ' Barnetts; this was the second conversation on the river. . between myself and Mr. P.; it was some time At Columbus we reached the river, and a ! in April, I think the latter part; Mr. P. said ride of two hours to Cairo, on board the beau-^ that he told Mrs. his wife, to tell Mrs. visited them frequently herein Opelika; Mrs. Barnett’s family and my awn were very inti mate; Mrs. Barnett’s children were all .pets of mine, bat more especially Miss Julia,-who was the youngest; I know Mr. John D. Hooper; 1 think I have known him four or five years; I think I know his character as a peaceable, moral and law abiding citizen; it is good, I think; I knew Mr. T, H. Phillips: I had known him a long time; he was a man of good size; 1 think he would have weighed one hundred aDd seventy-five pounds; he was a short man; considerably larger than Mr. Hooper; I should think Mr. Phillips was the stronger man: he was apparently much stronger than Mr. Hooper; Mr. Phillips is dead; he was killed on the 22d of May; I talked with Mr. P. about Miss Barnett and Hooper; in the first conversation with Mr. Phillips there were no Dames mentioned; but he told me that he had seen certain parties go be yond. north of, and back of his lot; I asked him who they were but he refused to tell me; in a day or two afterwards I saw Mr. P. on the street and asked him to go with me into my office; he went with me; I laid to Mr. P. that I had learned from another source, who I thought he alluded to; I told him I had heard it was Mr. Hooper and Miss Barnett, and he replied that they were the parties. He said that he knew Mr. Hooper bat did not know the young lady; he said that alter they started this way back to the road that he came around to the street; he said that he saw a young lady or ladies. (I am not certain which,) and asked them why they were not out walking this beautiful evening (he said it was Sunday,) and they replied that they had no one to walk with them, or something like that; I think he said he asked them if somebody had not shortly before walked by them; I think he mentioned the name of Miss Dozier as one of the young ladies; he said that they replied, there was a couple had just walked by ; he asked if they knew them, and Miss Dozier said it was Mr. Hooper and, she thought, one of the Miss tiful steamer “Illinois,” was extremely pleas ant. A good wash, a good supper, and a general inspection was had by some of the party, of the steamer from the deck to the pilot house. The pilot intimated that if one of the ladies was not competent to manage a steamer, it was because she had for gotten the answer to her question he th nks about four hundred, it was a lovely moonlight evening, and our party were happy, very happy. At eleven o’clock p. m , we left Cario for Chicago, on the Illinois Cen tral Railroad, which seems faultless in its management. The road bed is ballasted with stones, at a cost of over two thousand dollars Cunningham not to let her daughter visit Mrs. Barnett any more; he said that the first he knew it wa3 Barnett was when Miss Dozier told him; he then told me that he saw them go down behind his garden; that he and his wife were standing in the garden or field in the lower part of their enclosure, and that he saw these parties, Mr. Hooper and the lady, who he afterwards learned was Miss Barnett; Mr. P. told his wife to tell Mrs. Cunning ham not to allow her daughters to visit Mrs. Barnett any more, but he did not tell me; that he told his wife to say anything to Mrs. Cunningham about what he had said or if he told me, I don’t recollect it; he said he per mile; it is straight and smooth and the saw these parties, Mr. Hooper and the lady trains ran at a rapid rate. The country is j who he learned was Miss Barnett, pass down mostly fiat prairie, the soil black and rich; wheat and com fields as far as the eye can see in all directions—both looking well—much of the last crop of corn is still visible, and during the past winter rnach corn was used for feul—not unfrequently the loco motives filling their tenders with corn instead of wood, the corn being the cheaper, and the conductor of the line informs ns, better for makiog steam. THE COUNTRY LS THICKLY studded with towns and villages. Every where the snug schoolhouse and the little ichite church tells us that the settler remem bers Him who has so richly blessed His children—well cultivated and well stocked farms evidence the thrift and comfort found j only in farming regions. Illinois, bnt a few years since, was in the “Far West;” to-day Is one of the great central States of the Northwest. Rarely have we seen a country more suggestive of real and increasing wealth than these broad prairies at this season of the year, with the fields of waving grain miles and miles away. Passing on with lightning speed from town to town, gradually nearing the city, leaving be hind the ruder houses of the country, and passing the grander residences. The day was a long one. On every band Natare’s beauty met the eye, and THE WILD PRAIRIE FLOWERS of a thousand hues seem more attractive than many floral gardens in the olc'er States; and when showers have moistened the eaath, or the morning dew is sparkling, there is more of real beauty—more of that spirit pervading the 7ery atmosphere around us, tending to make us better men and women, than can be found in city life; and the memory of those scenes will long remain in the minds of those travelers |wbo make the journey when nature is clothed in her lobe of summer. We have briefly sketched the trip here and -will write from here the further movements ,oionr party. THE EXCURSION. This excursion was gotten up by Mr. Good- now, Southern Manager of the Republic Life Insurance Company. His arrangements for the trip were complete, nothing forgotten and nothing wanting that could add to our com fort or pleasnre, and from our leaving Atlanta till we wore pleasantly located in tnis magnifi cent hotel, his attentions to the party have been constant and untiring. Oar party had been announced and provisions made for our comfort. How we impress the people of the West, remains to be seen; how they impress os, I will tell yon in a future letter. R. qirl from another source, and I took Phillips into my office for the purpose of talking with him about it. Iu the last conversation we had, he, Phillips, said that he wanted peace, and requested me to say so to Johnnie Hooper. The Court here adjouned until 8:30 the next morning. Saturday, June 14, 1873. CROSS EXAMINATION OF DR. COBB RESUMED. I told Phillips that Dr. Mizell had been talking of this occurrence which took place behind his garden, and Phillips said that he was going to see Dr. Mizell and get him to stop it. This was the second conversation Phillips either said that he had told or would tell Dr. Mizell that he, Phillips, could not substantiate this- inasmuch as that he only kuew Mr. Hooper; I had two conversations with Phillips on this subject, and in the last conversation he said that he had told Dr. Mizell this about substantiating the charge; I never communicated anything to Mr. Hooper that I learned in any of these three conversa tions; Mr. P. said that he went to Mr. H. and told him that he had better be more particu lar, and then related to him that he had seen him go behind his lot with a young lady. Mr; Hooper asked him what lady he referred to. Mr. Phillips replied that he did not know the lady himself, but that Miss Dozier had told him that she thought it was one of the Miss Barnetts. Mr. P. told me that Mr. H. got mad then; that if he insinuated that it was Miss Bar nett that he would shoot his head off; P replied, that is a game that two could play at, and added, if you were to kill me, you would not want to kill three women; he said that H. asked him if the women saw it; P. said that they did; he said that then Mr. H. quieted down and asked not to say anything about it; Mr. Phillips said that he and Johnnie had this conversation in Col. Hooper’s office on Monday, the 7th of April, 1873; Mr. Phillips told me in the same conversation that ho told Hooper, in that conversation, that he went to him as a father and not to get mad about it; I do not recollect his saying to me “that he told Johnnie that he was a triend to him and the whole Hooper family;” I did not see which way Hooper went; fie left the private office and went out of the front door of the court-house; Mr. Phillips told mein all these three conversations that he wanted to settle the matter peaceably; he did not tell me in these three conversations “that he had seen what he said he saw, and that he could not lie about it; in the first conversation with Phillips, he refused to tell me the names of the parties; I asked him, but he refused to tell me. In. the second conversation, when I asked him into my office, just as soon as he m cut in, I told him that I had heard the namf s of tfie parties, and he admitted that he knew Johnnie Hooper, but did not know of himself who the lady was, but only from hearsay. I don’t thiok 1 said any more to him than I have stated before he admitted what is above stated. Mr. Phillips said that he did not know the girl at all, but that he had learned her name trom other parties. I dont think I said to Mr Phillips, before he told me that these were the parties, that he need have no fear about telling me who the parties were; that I would not tell it, and that I had already learned their names. To the best of my reco • lection I have stated all that passed between Phillips and myself in these three conversa tions. In none of the three conversations did I mention to Mr. Phillips that I had kissed the girl myself. In none ot the three conver sations did I tell Mr. Phillips what the girl had done to me just after I had finished work ing on her teeth. Since the 7th of April there have been a number of unusually hard rainp. Re-examined—Mr. Phillips said that Mr. Hooper a6ked him what lady or girl that was that he referred to, and Mr. Phillips told him that Miss Dozier said it was one of the Miss Barnetts; he said that Johnnie Hooper got mad then, and said you cannot insinuate any thing about her; this is my best recollection of the language; I think that in this same conversation Mr. Phillips told me that he thought Mr. Hooper was satisfied; that the explanation made by Phillips satisfied Mr. Hooper. G. S. Cobb. through a vacant lot on Sunday the 6th of April about an hour by sun, and went back of his lot near Mr. Terrill's lake, aboat thirty or forty yards ahead of the lake; the young lady was a little in advance; she got down and was then out of sight; Mr. Hooper did the same; they remained there a short while and got up and Mr. Hooper brushed the leaves or dirt off of her dress; I don’t recollect anything else in this conversation; he said that he told bis wife to tell Mrs. Cunninghim not to let her daughter visit Mrs. Barnett any more on ac count of what he bad seen; he said that he went to the spot; he said that he went to the spot after they went away; he could not teil from the appearance of the place whether they fiad laid down or sat down; he went there the same evening; I asked him it he saw anything which would snow that anything wrong was done, and he said not; I then asked him if he saw any sign which look suspicious, he said he did not; in that conversation he said nothing about his ability to defend himself if sued; we had several conversations before he ever said anything about a suit; not a great while before Mr. P.’s death, about the time Mr. Hooper was starting oft, Mr. P. mentioned to me that if he got into a difficulty he had en gaged CoL Barnes to defend him; the day Mr. P. was killed, he came to me and askt d me to go to Mr. Hooper’s office; he said he thought Johnnie was there; 1 was going there to talk with Johnnie; that was the under standing between Mr. P. any myself; I wanted to find out wbat kind of a talk to make with Johnnie, and I stated to Mr.P. that 1 had learned that Dr. Mizell had been saying something about it, and in case that suit was brought against him I asked Mr. P. what proof could be made to sustain Dr. Mizell? He said that he knew Johnnie Hooper, but did not know the young lady ex cept as told to him, and that ho bad cautioned him (Dr. Mizell) to stop talking ; that he might get himself into trouble. I mentioned to Phillips that Dr. Mizell had been talking a good deal about this same thing, and I asked Phillips if suit for slander was brought against Mizell; if he Phillips could biing suf ficient proof to sustain Mizell; and he said he could not I asked Mr. P. what proof he could make to defend such suit successfully. Mr. Phillips requested me to go to Hooper and say to him, “that if he, Hooper,” would say that he went there with any other woman, or lewd woman, that the woman who had seen it wouldn’t know any better, and that he, Phillips wouldn’t deny it. This was the proposition by Phillips for a settlement be tween Hooper and Phillips, and was mention- ep to me by Phillips about eleven a. h , of the day he was killed. 1 found out the name of the Deep Sea Fishing.—The Washington cor respondent of the Chicago Tribune says that General Grant “probably entertains no no tion of running again, and if he did, would be obliterated,” but flops out Mr. Secretary Fish as the coming icthus. Saith he (very ir reverently, by the way,): “Do you know that old Fish is amongst the volunteers for the Presidency ?” said a high official to me a week ago. “By George, his prospects are as good as any of them. Sup pose the money interest of the country throws the vote in ’76, as it did without division in ’72, wouldn’t it pitch upon Fish as about the 8ifest man m the Cabinet? And he has got to every honor by the silent slide he is wait ing to take now. Governor of New York, Senator and Secretary of State, he occupied all these places almost without a canvass. His place is about the only one in the country where he might have a positive policy, and at the right time, by a pop at Mexico, or some other port, get the veering and volatile half of mankind enthusiastic for him. And do you notice that, whereas he had given up his house, and declared in solemn earnest that he would leave Washington at the beginning of the second term, he has now retaken the Morgan mansion, and his wife has exerted herself this winter as never before to enter tain with cost and splendor unequalled here ? Grant is giving Fish more of his time than he used to. They ride out together, and look owly.” ATLANTA PAPER MILLS. OROCKERY AND CLASSWARE. A TLANTA PAPER MILLS—JAS. ORMOND Pbo- ^V. vnxkron.

Middletown, O., June 4.—A Mrs. Nicols, who keeps a millinery store here, is possessed of a handsome daughter, who of late has ac cepted the attentions of a young man worthy of her esteem, though not quite so accepta ble to her parents. Yesterday morniug the young folks met at the post-office and after a short conversation separated, the young lady returning home. Her mother having dis covered whom she had been with, proceeded to carry out her often-repeated threat to whip her every time she went with that James. She locked up her stere, took her daughter up stairs, made her take off her dress, and then applied the lash until the purple welts burst and the crimson fluid strickled from the terrible wounds. The fainting girl was then pat to bed, where she still lies a prey to her mother's malice. Major General L. Barrow, C.
