letter From the ffsrfh.
Mr. Editor : A sweep of 1,200
miles gives one some idea of the vast
extent of our country. Add to thi^
lofty mountains and lovely vales,
broad and well cultivated acres, or
chards, vineyards,.cities, towns, vil
lages, and majestic.rivers, upon whose
waters walk the ships like things of
life, lakes that bear whole argosies,
and then begins to appear the beauty,
wealth, enterprise,. and magnificent
resources of our glorious Union.
If I were a single gentleman, I
should marry and glide with my
“bonny bride” up the noble Hudson.
I advise even old men whose senti
ment is ready to die in them to do
this thing,, and take anew lease of
life. See it in Antnmn, during the
lovely Indian summer. The banks
then are bean tiful. The richest dyes
of the sear and yellow leaf then
mingle with the grassy lawns that
slope to the edge of the water. Yon
are never beyond the sight of human
dwellings. Sloops and steam-vessels
add life,to the water; mountains
stretch away in the distance, or, rear
their bold fronts right before you.

the railroad wars of the great North

mediately concerned, it cannot bnt
be advantageous to the Southern

developing their long neglected nat
ural res on roes.

Twelve thousand separate “lota” cf

Mr. runui: I see from joar

has long been n welcome visitor in
my household, that yon have deci
ded to change your base of opera
tions, and I have concluded to drop
in on yon in yonr new quarters with
a few little items which will convey
to yon some idea of the wonders of
the Mississippi Valley.
In agriculture this valley is surely
ahead of the world. It has produced
the past season over fifty thousand
bales of cotton, and over twelve
thousand tons of cotton seed has
been sold to the cotton seed oil man
ufactories at #6 to |6.50 per ton
from this (Washington) onnty
alone.
Onr largest apples grown this
season weighed one pound each.
Onr largest onion (tins ought to
bring tears to yonr eyes) weighed
four pounds. The largest potato
grown in this valley this season that
I have seen weighed 22) pounds.
The largest cabbage head weighed
17 pounds. The largest snake killed
this season had 22 rattles and on
button.. The largest alligator killed
was twelve feet long. The largest
bear killed weight d 600 ponnds.
The greatest amount of bull-frogs
(don’t langht at this) caught in ont
dqr was 1,848. They, were caught
from Lake Boliver by Adam Bar
thell, the celebrated* bull-frog catch
er, and shipped to New Usleans and
sold at 25 cents apiece.

There has been considerable sick

The Rome Library, though only
established ten months, numbers 218
men and contains 1.000 volumes.
It is stated that on Christmas
day an Atlanta waman ate a water
melon which was grown in her own
garden.
The Senoia Farm and Home says -.

cos wore a haggard, poverty stricken
look, and they draw most woeful
pictures of their lifo in that country.
They say that in some sections of
Texas there has been no rain since
last May, and that sometimes far
mers must travel twenty miles for
water. All the brooks, streams,
springs, are dried up ia certain to
entities and everything wears a burnt,
parched appearance. They report
that the ootton crop is excellent,
never better, but they are so weaken
ed by the climate, to which they are
unaccustomed, that they cannot pick
their cotton as it should be.
Returning .emigrants »re becom
ing camerons. They come bank in
every manner, by railroad, in wagons
and afoot. As a role they wear a
woe-begone expression, which con
vinces one that the land “flowed not
in milk and honey” for them. The
only reason that more do not retain
is that they do not have the means.
Their sad experience ia teaching
them that there is no better climate,
soil and society, nnder the sun than
in the home* they left. The farmers
in this country are now beginning
to find this ont, and the ofiener they
are reminded of it, the better off they
will be.
The Cincinnati Enquirer, speak
ing of kilting a hog, says: “Reader,

An Atlanta special says: “Great
excitement prevails on account of

of a female in the old soap factory
building on Houston street, in the
neighborhood of the Medical College.
The corpse was found by a colored
boy, and the negroes flocked to the
place in soorea.”
The Colombo* Enquirer furnishes
the gratifying intelligence that the
track of the Columbus and Rome
Railroad was completed to the top of

the work of erecting it began imme

Thousands of acres of laid have
bsen registered and will be offered at
a cost less than those of the gov

are convenient to railroads. Such
inducements will interest capitalists,
and with their aid immigrants-can
be obtained in abundance. All the
schemes are working well. Farmers
on the the average can make more
money per acre in Georgia than they
can in the West, or North, or any
other con u try, for they Cap realize
a succession of crops. At the same

Killed by a Falling Meteor.
Nemeha county, Kansas, papers
report the death of a stockman, on
Lite 12th iiiBtant, by a falling me
teor. At eight o’clock in the morn*
ing, when the sky w:is perfectly clear
and the weather very c-dd, the man
itad gone from his house to a past’
ture about five hundred yards dis
rant, to drive some cattle. He was
walking towards the barn on hia re
turn, aud while standing about twen
ty feet lrora the trunk of a maple
tree was killed. The aerolite which
c tused bis death came from an east
erly direction, and first struck the
tree trunk, which caused it to.glance
slightly, and in its flight it cut the
upper branches of the maple and en-
tered the stockman’s body from be
low the right shoulder, coming out
at the left hip and then partially
burying itself it the frozen ground.
The areolite is said to be abont as
large as an ordinary man’s bead and
egg-shaped and rough, as if taken
from a not furnace aud cooled in its
flight through space. It resembled
in appearance iron taken from
blast furnace and cooled by rolling
in sand, and is compog-d of iron
pvrites. It was perfectly cool when
discovered about half an hour aft-r
its fall, and lay not more than two
feet below the surface of the ground.
