AUGUSTA,GA:
Friday Evening, June 11, IHSB.
[Special Cbrrcspondence of the ZHspatch.]
Atlanta, Ga., June 8, 1858.
I reached the railroad city on yester
day, and after removing some of the
surplus dust, took a str ill around the
city. I find many improvements in pro
gress, some of which are of a substan
tial and importantsjpharucter. Among
these are fifteen or twenty brick stoics ;
and I learn that several of the wooden
hulks of Whitehall, are to be torn
away, aud replaced by three story brick
store houses.
The Bolling Mill, commenced last
year by Mr. L. A. Docglass, and aban
doned, has been purchased by Messrs.
Blakk & Scofield, aud the new firm
are actively engaged erecting suitable
buildings. The machinery is looked for
in a few days, and they expect to be in
operation by September. Mr. Scofield
was, for many years, engaged in the
works of Cooper & Hewett, of New
York, whose railroad iron has been
quite celebrated. The construction of
the works is under the supervision of
Mr. Davis, of Indianapolis, who built
the Rolling Mill in that city, and the
Atlanta Mill is on the same plan. The
main building is two hundred and six
by eighty feet, with a shed thirty feet
in width on three sides. It is believed
that Atlanta is a very favorable point
for such an enterprise, as the various
roads centering there will give it a large
local business.
I regret that in looking after new im
provements I had not time to visit the
extensive Distillery of Messrs. Good
speed & Bee, s. two miles from the city.
For a graphic description of this estab
lishment, I refer the readers of the
Dispatch, to a late number of that
stauch friend of moral reform and ' 'ln
cal enterprises’’ —the Atlanta American—
(the very neatest paper in the State )
The editors Bay they make good whis
ky, and though they are both temper
ance men, I shall not impeach their
judgment. This is, I believe, the only
well-appointed Distillery in the State,
and, like the Rolling Mill, is favorably
located; being in a peach and grain
country, and, no doubt, also enjoying
some advantage in the way of local pat
ronage.
I found Mr. Duncan, of the Intelligen
cer, laying off on a cozy lounge, with a
refreshing otium cum dignitatc, and exhib
iting none of the evidences of “ toil
and trouble” of which editors so much
complain.
Among the new and deserving enter
prises of the city, I am pleased to num
ber the candy and baking establishment
of Immel, Cunningham & Co. Good
bread is one of the luxuries of life sel
dom found, in these days of hot biscuit,
soda and other vile culinine compounds;
and when we find a good baker we hail
him as a benefactor. This firm manufac
ture what is termed the “patent bread”
and Boston crackers —with a variety of
soda and butter crackers. They are
about to put up a steam engine to run
the kneading machinery.
The Trout House is a well kept hotel.
I have nowhere met a more attentive
and obliging landlord than Mr. Gannon.
and visitors will find, at the Trout,
more of the comforts and luxuries of
life than usually fall to the lot of the
traveler.
A very novel and distressing incident
occurred in the Trout House last night.
A family from Liberty county was stop
ping for the next train, on their way to
visit a sick sister and daughter in Rome.
The party consisted of a mother, a son
and two daughters. They impressed
me as one of the cultivated families of
the low country, and in their manner
manifested that deep affectionate inter
est in each other, which is always beau
tiful, and too much lost sight of in thir
selfish world of ours.
While seated in the parlor after tea.
in company with other guests of tin
hotel, who bad recently returned from
the up country, the conversation turn
ed upon Rome, where all parties had
many acquaintances. Inquiry was rnadi
after the family of the sick relative, ti
whom they were hastening. Not know
ing that he was addressing her brother
the gentleman replied that the lady bac
died the day before, and that hercnrpsi
was brought that day on the train t,
Marietta, where it was waiting the aril
val of relatives. This reply fell like a
thunderbolt upon the entire gronpe—
The ladies fell screaming and fainting
into each others arms, and all present
were suffused with tears by the start
ling spectacle I have never witnessed
grief so agonizing and intense. Tin
deceased bad been married but a few
months, and a short time ugo had left
the old family circle, hoping to w elcoim
its endeared members to her own hap
py home, during the summer. What a
commentary is this upon human hopes.
To add to the painful realities of
this strange coincidence, the land
lord, who, hearing the seteams of the
ladies, hastened to the parlor, on re
turning to the office was relating what
had happened to a traveler who had
just arrived—who proved to be another
brother of the deceased, who was on
his way to meet her, if possible, before
she died.
These incidents struck me as so novel
and so touching, that I could not with
hold a brief allusion to them, and if I
have inadvertently added a pang to the
strteken hearts of the afflicted circle,
some of whom I number among my es
teemed friends—l hope the haste with
which I write, will be a sufficient apol
ogy-
Crops between here and Augusta never
looked more promising. The stands of
corn and cotton are good, and the ap
pearance of the plant healthy.
Business here is at a stand. The stock
of bacon is large and prices are accom
modating. Hog round is quoted at 9
cents, and docs not sell freely at that
price.
I met Dr. Powell, of the Medical
College, and was pleased to learn of
■ the prosperity' of that Institution,

i of here. Ihe success of the Dispatch is
creating quite a demand for such publi
cations. Success to all who make even

Army lor Itah.
A correspondent of the St. Louis IRe
publican writingfromLeavenworth, Kan
sas, under date of May 31, says that the
steamer Morton had brought up adetach
ment of recruits for the 2d Artillery,
who will remain as a part of the depot
garrison—they were from Virginia.
More reinforcements were expected
from Jefferson City. The Quartermas
ter was paying the accounts of contrac

bringing up the rear, and of course ta
king all the men that it is intended

tlie United States.
Fourth of July.
Almost every paper we take np ex
presses regret that ‘ ‘no preparations art
on foot to celebrate the cominganniver
sary of lndipendence. Are we so en
grossed in money-getting as to have no
time for a holiday, or are the memoiies
of the past actually fading from the
popular heart? Either dilemma is a
sad commentary on the tendencies of
the age.
lotion Planter's Convention.
The ?.lacon State Press says; We are
sorry that the absence from town of one
of the Editors and the business engage
ments of the other, prevented us from
attending the Convention of Cotton
Planters which held its session in this
city on Tuesday last. Hon. Howell
Cobh, of Houston, was unanimously
elected President, and Gen. Armstrong,
of Bibb, acted as Secretary. We learn
! from a friend who was present, that
there was a good attendance of Dele
gates, and that the proceedings were oi
a very interesting character. Several
seusiblc resolutions on various subjects
were adopted, and tiie convention ad
journed to meet again in September.

Destructive Storm in tlie Vicinity , I
Demopolls.
Tlie Demopolis Gazelle of the 4th in
stant says; “ We had one of the mosi
violent wind and rain storms in this vi
-1 c'mity on Friday night last. The rain
commenced about 10 o’clock at night,
and continued until about 3 o’clock in
the morning. We do not remember
f ever to llav e seen as much rain fall in
. the same length of time. The river by
morning had risen some eight f«et. All
the small bridges in the neighborhood
were swept away, and a good deal of
fencing. Almost all the slough lands
were overflowed, and the young corn
and cotton in the bottoms in many
places almost covered up by the wash
from thepioughed fields.
One gentleman writes us that he
thinks his crop injured to the extent of
, a thousand dollars. The corn, a good
deal of it, was blown down and covered
- w ith mud, so that iv could not rise again

Singular Adventure by a Child.
A little girl, only three years old,
daughter of John Schaffer, who resides
- at the corner of St. Paul and Atwater
. I streets, had a singular adventure on
| Sunday last, whicli would scarcely be
credited if not so well authenticated as
, to leave no room for doubt. Mr. and
I Mrs. Schaffer went to church in the
mornng at the usual hour, aud left this
child at home with a boy of nine years.
About eleven o'clock she told herbrotk
- er that she was going to see Charlotte,
referring to a sister five years old, who
died two years ago ; and soon after she
escaped from tlie house, unobserved by
' her brother. When the parents return
. ed from church, the little girl was no
( where to be found. A search was made
of the neighlioibood, and finally the
1 usual method of ringing a bell anil cry
f ing for a lost child, was resorted to.—
Toward evening intelligence waareceiv
ed that a child bad been seen at Mount
1 Hope, answering tlie description of tlie
l one missing. Mr. be ha fie r could hardly
[ suppose that his child had wandered so j
far from home, but he set out for the
- cemetary. At the canal bridge he met
Mis. D. Sloetzer with his child on the
. way home. Mrs. S. had found it at a
house in Mount Hope, where it hail
been taken Care of, having been found
? lu t ie cemetary.
1 This little girl, only three years old,
5 had walked from near the Falls field to
Mt. Hope and to the extreme bouthern
• part of the grounds, where her father
1 has a lot, and where her little sister was
buried. The distance is nearly three
' miles, and she had not been there oflen
' enough to make her at all familiar with
1 the streets leading thither. And after
I reaching the cemetary, it is surprising
that she should have found her way
along tlie winding paths lending to
the upper part of the grounds. She
must have done all without assistance,
and actually found the place where her
- sister Chatlottc sleeps. How long she
was going to the spot is not known, nor
is it known how long she remained
there. It is presumed she was much
> fatigued when she arrived there, for she
, laid down upon the grass by the grave
and slept. When she awoke she started
homeward and came down to 011 c of the
1 ponds of the cemetary to slake her
f thirst, and there she was noticed by a
man who took charge of her and de
tained her until Mrs. Sloetzer came
along and recognized her.
The little wanderer was restored to
her anxious parents about six o'clock,
; having been absent from home about
seven hours, and most of this time she
, was alone and mistress of her own ac
tions. Few children of twice her years
1 could be trusted to accomplish such a
s journey alone. There is something of
L sublimity—of poetry—in the adventure
of this child, which appeals to the fiuer
1 sentiments of the soul. That one so
, young and so tender should he inspired
, witli a passion to visit a sister’s grave,
and should resolutely accomplish the
mission against such obstacles, is strange
- indeed. That same Almighty Power
1 which controls the smallest events as
. well at those of magnitude, and which
implanted in this infant bosom a desiie
‘ to commune alone with tlie pure spirit
of a sister, guided her safely to that sis
ter's grave and returned tier unluy-med
to parental care.
This incident, simple perhaps in it
-1 self, to the reflecting mind is suggestive
, of many thoughts. If tlie spirits of tlie
dead hover about and are cognizant of
the movements of the living, (ok how
1 happy are they who firmiy believo it)
with what extatic delight the spirit of
Charlotte must have beheld her little
sister sleeping sweetly upon the grave
containing her ftbhcs! What fond pa
rent would not find the death pang
more easy and the King of terrors de
throned in the hour of dissolution if he
could be assured that his darling chil
dren ami those he Held most dear on
earth, would singly wander to the silent
cemetary nod sleep upon his grave! -
Such a thought would strip the tomb of
its oblivious character aud make ii
rather a bed for tlie enjoyment of en
chanting dreams, than a place of dark,
d eary aud cold forgetfulness.— Rochester

The Kpi><copul Convention.
The Diocesan Convention of the Protest

C. H. yesterday. From all indications,
we learn that quite a large number of
lay and clerical delegates are in attend
ance, The “ Southern Episcopalian,” ,
in alluding to this subject, says : ,
“ It is the first time in the history of ,
our Diocese that the Convention has
been held so high up in the State. For
a number of years it seemed to be ,
thought that Charleston was the only
point at which a Convention could be
assembled. One or two attempts to
meet at Columbia had not been very ,
successful, and all efforts to carry the j
Legislature of the Church elsewhere ,
than our chief city, were uniformly re
sisted and defeated. The meeting in
Columbia in 1851, was, however, very i
far from being a failure, though it was >
with great difficulty that the vote to
carry it there was obtained, and many '
predicted that we would not get a quo
rum. A later attempt at Camden, the '
last year, was emienently successful,and ,
we hope the move to Greenville now
will establish the precedent for rota
tion throughout the chief towns and
villages of the .State, o a « a a
One of the most cheering apd de
lightful features about our last Conven
tion in Camden, was the increased de
votional spirit which marked the inert
ing. The multiplication of leligiousser ;
vices and of the opportunities of preach
ing the Gospel, was very beautifully in
character with a meeting of the repre
sentative body of the Church, and gave
to the {assembly an interest which it

were ten inches in circumference, while;
others had more length, and were from i
eight to ten inches long. Not a win

the storm came. In several instances
shingles were split and sashes broken.
Stock outsideof shelter was badly pelt

killed The track of the storm was
about Smiles in width, and it probably
did a good deal of damage outside of
the town.
