Saturday Morning. November 13,1875. A Glorious Picture in Artistic Setting The following poem, written some years ago, by a Massachusetts lady, whose name now, unfortunately, escapes our memory, will bear reproduction every year till the end of time. Has it a peer of its theme ami length in the language 1-[National Repub lican. , .., r . Autumn. Tho year grows splendid! On the moun tain steep Now lingers long the warm and gor geous light, Dying by slow degrees into the deep Delicious night. The tlnal triumph of the perfect year, Rises the woods’ inagniiieent array: Deyond, the purple mountain heights ap pear. And slopo away. 1 he elm, with musical, slow motion, laves His long, lithe branches in the tender air, While from his top the Virgin’s Bower wares Her scarlet hair. Where Spring first hid her violets 'neath the fern, Where Summer’s lingers ope’d fold after fold The odorous, wild red-rose’s heart, now bum The leaves of gold. Now Nature pours hor last and noblest wine! Like some Bacchant beside the lingering streams Beelines the enohanted Day, rapt In divine Impassioned dreams. The loftiest hill, the loveliest flowering herb, The fairest frule of season and of clime, All wear alike the mood of the buperb Autumnal time. But when the painted leaves are falling fast; Among the rales, beyond the farthest hill There sits a shadow, dim and sad, and vast, And lingers still. And still we hear a voice among the hills, A voice that mourns among the haunted woods And with the mystery of its sorrow fills Tho solitudes. For while gay Autumn gilds the fruit and leaf, And doth her fairest festal garments wear. Lo! Time forever in his mighty shoaf Binds up the year! The mighty shoaf wldch never is unbound! The Reaper whom our souls beseech in vain! The loved, lost year that never may be found Or loved again. Tire Oity of Atlanta. [Nows and Courier, 10th.] The arrival of this splendid new steamship, which Is intended to take tho place of the Manhattan on the New York and Charleston Steamship Line, attracted quite a crowd of visitors to Adgor’s wharf yesterday. She arrived at her pier about two o’clook, and during the afternoon was visited by a crowd of admiring landsmen and sea men. The City of Atlanta was built expressly for the Charleston and New York trade, and la simply perfect in all hor appointments. She Is a wooden steamer, 263 feet long, and of 1,620 tons measurement, with a carry ing capacity of about 3,600 bales of cotton. The engine was built at the Qulntard Iron Works, and consists of a 48-inch cylinder, with a 60-inch stroke. The steam is supplied from two boilers, weighing each thirty-seven tons, and heated by fourteen furnaces. The screw is of composition metal, is thirteen feet In diameter, with a pitch of twenty-one feet, which means that it propels the vessel twenty-one feet at each revolution. The economy of space is especially exemplified in the interior of this splendid steamship. The space between decks is covered In and well ventilated, with a view to the wants of the growing fruit and vegetable trade of Charleston. In this space from five hundred to seven hun dred bales of cotton can be stored. The passenger equipments of the vessel are superb. The state-rooms are carpeted and upholstered lu tho most magnificent style, and the panel ing in the saloon is finished with French walnut, Hungarian ash, rosewood, ma hogany and ebony wood. The berths in the state-rooms are constructed athwartships, which, old salts say, is much more conducive to the comfort and convenience of passongers on board of a propeller. The City of At lanta was built at Greenpoint, Long Island, and ranks as one of the staunch est and swiftest steamers on the Amer ican coast. The frame was laid last year, and Is well seasoned. She is thoroughly Itimbered and diagonally shaped. It is only necessary to add that this splendid floating palace is commanded by Capt. M. S. Wood hull, who has been in the ser vice of the New York and Charleston line for over eight years. The officers are as follows: Command er, M. S. Woodhull; first officer, Joseph McKee; second officer, George Cuth bert; purser, Geo. Denslow; chief engi neer, John Brandt; first assistant engi neer, Benj. Morrison; second assistant engineer, Wm. Phillips; pilot, John Carnigan; steward, Herman Caesar. Ofi her trip from New York to this port the City of Atlanta brought over sev enty-five passengers, forty-three of whom were destined for Florida, be sides a full freight list. She is consid ered by good judges of marine archi tecture as one of the strongest wooden vessels afloat, and will prove a valua ble addition to the commercial marine of Charleston. ama North Georgia Conference. This Methodist body, which meets jvnnually, consisting of all the “travel ing” preachers, that is pastors, of the [dethodist Episcopal Church South, :jn that part of Georgia above a line running from the lower boundary of Richmond county west to the Alabama line, at the point where the Pine Moun tains Id Harris county are arrested by the wide-spread Chattahoochee, (about twenty miles above Columbus), and thirty-six lay delegates, four from each presiding elders’ district, does not meet at Griffin on December 2d, as we pub lished yesterday, but December Ist, (Wednesday.) It numbers 175 pastors, and represents 51,463 white members. Tho colored members have united with a Southern colored church called the “Colored Methodist Episcopal Church in America.” This church has four colorßishops and about 200,000 members in the Southern and Western States. The North Georgia Conference represents 407 local preachers, that is preachers who do not travel and are not pastors, unless employed especially by the Bishop or presiding elder to do so. The North Georgia Conference is one of about forty conferences, into which the M. E. Church South is divided, numbering in all more than 700,000 members, all white, except 6,000 In dians and some 100 Chinese; more than 200,000 increase since the Con federate war closed. It now has a con ference in Indiana and Maryland, where 1 it had no members before the war. It is presided over by eight Bishops, whose residences are respec tively in Georgia, South Carolina, Vir ginia, Mississippi, Louisiana, Tennes see, Kentucky and Missouri.
