Tin Atlanta correspondent of the Griffin
News, writing on Saturday, says:
At last onr anplonl oily fathom have come
down a peg or two in regard to the sale of
watermelons, and now the stores have them in
abnndanoa. Twee only last night the ordinanoe
was passed, nml lo ! tbta morning we nee then
sands of this juicy fruit everywhere for sale.
Moore, of the Herald, being aware of the
action of the Oily Gonneil in thia matter, after
doing np hia looal, spent the remainder of the
night In front of Pease's establishment, and,
soon as the doors wero ajar next morning he
oalled for tho biggest melon on hand. With
thia nnder hia right arm and a bottle of oholera
mixture nnder hia left, ha aat on the curbstone
and amole one of hia charmingeat smiles for
mlnnte or two, then hied away to hia room
where, beneath the soft seoluslon of his moa
qnlto bar, be drove sleep from hia panting eye
lids and defied cholera, as the red, Inscions
allocs disappeared ono by one. He then gave
theeity fathers a unanimous vote of thanks,
went to sleep, and the Recorder's Oonrt waa
nnreported next morning.
A ooBaxaroxitEXT of the Atlanta Constitution
gives the following war inoldent:
General Sherman, with hia splendidly
equipped army of ono hundred thonaand men,
wanted to give General Johnston, with hia army
of fifty thonaand veterans, battle In the month
Citnip stronger.* Johnston'was at gallon, with
hta advance at Ringgold; his lino of supplies,
aa well as of retreat, the Western and Atlantic
Railroad. Sherman conceived the idea
11 inking Johnston by sending McPherson, with
his twenty-four thonaand men, aroned throngb
Snake Greek Gap to Rssaoa, or any other point
north of Oootananlla river, with orders to seize
the railroad, bold it, and bnrn the bridge
Krarca at all hazard*. Meanwhile he wan'd
keep the Confederate army at Rooky Faood
Ridge baay. General Thomas doubted the ano-
oeaa of the plan, booance, he said General
Johnston was too good a soldier to leave Snake
Greek Gap unfortified. Bat Sherman wasbonnd
to try It, and so bo started McPhoroon, with the
army ef Tennessee, on a mission, which, if
earned ont, wonld reanltin aa great an aohleve
ment as ever waa gained by armed men. John,
aton wonld be anrionnded—hemmed in by the
OoalananlU and Gonaasnga rivers on the sontb
and east, by John's Mountain on the went, he
wonld have toanrrenderor fight againat fearfnl
odds, donlile bis fence attacking in front and rear.
On the Slh and Olh of May, Sherman bam
mered away at Rooky Faoed Ridge and Bax
xard's Kooat at a fearful rate; and daring the
night of the Oth, a courier from McPherson nr
rived at Sherman's headquarters with the in
formation that UcPhcraon and his army had
patted through Snake Creek Cap, and terra
within a nule of the railroad! This waa great
news for Sherman. He immediately called for
horse* and an oaoort, and rode to Gen. Thomas'
quarters, over a milo away. Bonding In upon
Uan. Thomas, he shoaled: “I told yon so
Tom l” (In familiar interoonrae he always
called Geaeral Thomas Tom.) “McPherson
passed throngb the gap, and by this time has
the railroad, and has burned the bridge. I’ve
got Joe Johnston dead .' I've got him dead .'
Of ooarea Thomas waa overjoyed, they oon-
• gratnlaled themselves on ending the campaign
ai it* commencement. To go down to Atlanta,
and from there to Savannah wonld be holi
day work. At daylight X general ad-
vauoe wonld be made. McPherson shall
hear onr gnna before night. Victory!
Before daylight another oonrier eame, and
hia message waa that McPherson had met a oon-
niderable force, and considered it pradent to
fall back to the west end and fortify. Then
Sherman stormed. He said “the grand oppor
tunity ia over—oh.' if I bad only sent Osier-
bans or Charley Wood, or somebody who wonld
have done as I ordered, Joe Johnston wonld
have been mine before forty-eight boars.
Sherman at once pat Lis army in motion for
Kesaoa, via Snake Creek Gap, hoping to get
through before Johnston oould get away, leav.
mg Howard's corps tb watch Bnzsard Roost.
Bat that wiley chieftain had deteoied the ob-
jaot of the morement, and he polled np stakes
at Dalton, and, having the short cat, got to Re
ason before Sherman debouched from Snake
Greek Gap, while Howard’s corps occnpied Dal
ton. Tuan followed the three days' bloody
fight around lttwaea. until the night of May
wnen Johnston qnletly slipped away to King
ston with hia army, the rearguard bnralngtbe
railroad bridge across the Ooetananla liver.
Sherman did not get into Atlanta until the 0:b
of September.
Ihavlati from Jack Plaine.
OxroBD, Jnly 19.
The bit in the plane has been dull, and oon-
saqnently ont of nse for some time, bat after a
little whetting a few moro shavings are thrown
off. They may be very thin and somewhat jag
ged, but then Lie material may be bad and the
bit dull.
I waa constrained to make a pilgrimage to
thia point by the earned invitation of an old
friond, and an innate desire to aee what was
going on in the world. Taking the 11 o'clock
train yesterday, I found myself here at 9 j. it
We had pleasant company aboard, and when
combined with the elegant aeoommodatious of
the Maoon and Western railroad, made onr jour
ney as pleasant aa it waa possible to be in a hot
summer's day. Some were se< king pleasure re
sort*, others a covert from the heat, and a num
ber of Invalids were in search of some healthy
fountain where reat and health might be found.
Among the latter waa the estimable widow of
the late James Snider, of Maoon. She tarries
for tho present at Slone Mountain.
At Atlanta I oonld aee nothing bnt people
and railroad train*—hear nothing bnt rambling
of oetl and ringing of engine bells. The vil
lage keep* np that everlasting clatter and dtn,
ao that a stranger would think they were doing
wonders, and may be the, *r 8 . One thing waa
apparent, however, that rapid growth baa oeaaed,
which waa the astonlahment of every visitor of
other day*. Of oonree th.„ tre of im .
prove.nent, but it aaeume* a Headier step, all
the better for it* slowness.
Governor Smith did not invite me to stay
over, nor any one else, for that matter, and ao
I took shipping for thia port in a crowded ear.
I found on this road what I failed to obtain on
the mads oontroled by the Central. That is,
the anihoritjes ha-ve respect to in»titution« 0 (
learning, and afford the same facilities to attend
their exerciser, aa they do for people to attend
a horse raoe or a politioal harrangne, giving
them return ticket*. There are score* of per
sona who would have attended the exercise* of
Msrosr and the Wesleyan Female College in
Maoon, if thia favor bed been granted them.
Why oonld not the authorise* of tbeae institu
tions memorialise the directors upon thia point ?
It wonld be nothing more than asking what is
granted to every political gathering and to
every one who goes forth to patronize the vari
ous watering pleese. I ■» satisfied that a'l
that ia neors«ary la to call the attention of the
the “powers that be ” to thia fact.
The crops sloDg the way were in all kinds of
condition*. g°°d. bed and indifferent. More
cotton then oora by half. ‘
Thia is adelightfnl retreat—sorely none more
■nlted for the location of aa institution of learn
ing. Trne there ia not that local patronage
which it would have if it was located in some
city, bnt. on the other hand, it ia free from a
thonaand annoyances that are incident to city
life. It is healthier both morally and physically.
The Board of Trustees meet lo dav and the
commencement sermon to-morrow by Dr. Hick*,
late of your city. Quite a number of visitors
are arriving, and a large crowd 1* anticipated.
If the “term ia not too heated” yoa may have
a few more shaving* thrown at yon from

Emory College Exeretees.
Correspondence Telegraph and Messenger.)
Oxtoed. Jnly 21, 1873.
The crowd in attendance upon the annual
Commencement of Emory College has greatly
augmented ainco Saturday. Every incoming
train add* to the number of visitor*.
There waa a very large attendance upon the
delivery of the Commencement sermon by Rev.
Dr. Hick*, on yesterday. I was struck with the
faet of ao many gray beads gracing tho andience.
I don’t remember ever seeing ao many for
size of the congregation aa were gathered
getber on yeeterday at the village church.
The sormon waa one of the finest effort* of
the popular orator. It was not a diaplay only
of hia genlm, bnt throughout the entire sermon
thero waa a spirit of genuine Christian lovo and
fervor, evincing the fact that he had drank
deep of that experience which he labored
eloquently to impress the necessity of upon
hearts of others.
He oon tended that the history of Christianity
ia tho perpetoai exhibition of Jesns, flexible
and adeqnate, and operating tn nnity which
bxfilea all attempts at explanation on any human
hypothesis. HI* them* waa the pepetnity
Christianity. Hia text waa the third chapter
ColloasUne,from the I5th to 17th verses. For
hour and forty minutes he held the vast crowd
at bis will. The sermon abounded in elcqneDt
llighto, aa well aa profound logic. I do no; di
airo to pnt it into the newspapers, nor could
if I ao deeired, but I have anooeeded in gather
ing a few sketches whioh will give some idea of
its character, and not be nnaooeptable to your
readers. Hi* first proposition was. The cohe
sive power of Christianity and of the Christian
character.
That power la set forth in thane words, “Let
the peaoe of God rule in yonr hearts, •-
whioh also ye are oalled in one body. Let
mind of Christ dwell in yon riohly in all wia-
Whatever Is of God ia supreme, and this
declared to be “the peace of God.”
1. It la the revelation of divine power, as the
controlling element in onr hearts.
2. It la the same in all hearts, and ia there-
fore the nnifio or cohesive power compacting
believers in one body.
Two things are accomplished by it: First,
tt changes onr relation to God; seoond, it
changes oar relations with one another or rather
onr comprehension of them.
It may seem that Christians ara far apart,
working to tear each other down, under th-
genins of a destructive philosophy of denomt
nationalism, when they should be edifying one
another. Yet these antagonistic ontward man
ifestations are not always truly interpreted.
Differences of temporal effect rend not
root hold of nnity. Tho cohesive power ia deep
beneath all offsets, and has its guiding genius
on tbo very impulse of motion and heart-throb
Oflife. ... a .
The unsightly thistle owes its lifo and plan
to tba law whioh uplifts the giant oak and
which fills the lnacions peach with nature's
rlcheat marrow, and paints its ruddy chock,
with the very essence of the beantifnl, yet
seldom think or atop to think that they
related.
8o ia it with ohristianity, so with Christ’s
deemed chnroh. She is one body with many
separate members; one deep fountain with nu
merous gnahing torrent* of refreshing water;
one grand natnre, with diversified powers, beau
ties and motives.
How multiform the parts and agencies of this
kingdom of truth. Yet deep beneath all, di
recting all, grasplDg all, is the mighty hand of
pnrpoao by which ail theae different parts

Two conceptions comprehensive cf the
Christian system project nponus, allied insepa
rably, yet wotking by different proeeases, one
answering for intellectual, the other for moral
progress in the world: First, the teacher of
truth; second, the creator of experience in the
heart.
Let ns concede that these conceptions are
not simply divisions of words. They represent
and declare two seta of forces, and both in the
highest sense aggressive.
The presaber continned of Christianity: “The
intelleot of all nations pays tribute at her feet.
No matter whether employed in her defense or
leading the forlorn hope of the powers of dark
ness sgalnst her mighty onlworks, with her in
the march over the infinite world, or against
her in fiery dispute and refusal of her claims—
in every rank of scholarship of every nation,
from the village dominie to the learned Acade
mician, in all forms, styles and developments,
and nnder every oonoeivable shibboleth, it is
tree, while I speak, that the intelleot of tho
nniverse is this day marohing nnder otders
from this high cotnmandery.
2. Bet as tbe Creator and snbstance of ex
perienoe in the heart, the subject widens and
brightens before ns. No powers are oompara-
blo to those of experience. They ara poaitive
and self-contained.
No donbts attend them and they move
with precision. They are direet too, and
no barrier can Impede their progress. And
they ara praotioil—the common tools of daily
life, alike important and adapted to alL
“Christianity,'' said the speaker, “ia more
than a system of doctrine or formulated truth
It ia truth on fire. It is troth life-assimila
ting, personal, immortal.”
After illustrating the difference between in
tellectual knowledge and huart experience, tbe
speaker said: “Here is the intellectual form
of dogma, and here is the inward demonstration
of experience.
“If any one, therefore, wonld know why
Ohristianity lives and will live—conquers and
will conquer—let him know that experience,
which ia beyond the robberies of ages and here
sies, which cannot be obliterated when forms
are destroyed, whioh cannot be compromised—
experience is the secret—the secret of God,
the seeret of piety, the secret of the aggressive
march of Christianity, nntil the whole earth
shall be filled with the glory of God "
In one of Dr. Ohalmera’ unpublished lectures
to a class in divinity he uttered this grand tes
timony to tbe superiority of experlenoe over
dogmatic learning:
“Give me a band of Wesleyans, who never
saw the halls of a college and never sat at the
feet of a modern Gamaliel, whose only library
has been the inspired oracles, and whose only
tntor has heeu the Divine Para-'.ete—let them
loose on some wild nnbrck in rural territory,
with the Bible in their hands, and the love cf
Christ in tneir hearts, and III guarantee they
will do more, ten to one, than onr oollege made
ministers, who most shape every sentence and
perform every ceremony according to the rule
and sqnare of a rigid, frigid orthodoxy.”
