SOUTHERN BANNER. JUNE 11, 1878. asuaiitrawa [ Correspoutta nee, ] Climatic Influence of Korth Georgia. Athens, Ga , June 1st, 1878. l>r. II. I*. Gatciieli, Mount Airy: Dear Sir—Having read with much interest your articles in the “Head Light." and learning that you are still j,ro . i iting your investigations rela tive to the climatic influence of'North (ieorgia upon pulmonary disease, and such other advantages incident to this section of country which would j tend to the prolongation ofliieaml the j ;cnc.ul amelioration tf human ail ments, I most respectfully and j earnestly request an article from your pen, for publication in the “ South- krs Banner.” Should you honor! my paper with such a communication l am satisfied it would prove both interesting and instructive to my readers, as well as lend in some .degree to the most important enter* [■rises which has so enlisted your talent, time and energies. In some connection,' if desirable, I would sug gest, at least, some such general ideas iu regard to the varied interests of upper Georgia as your hotter judge ment and more extended experience might indicate. Trusting that through your courtesy I may become an hum- >le instrument for the distribution d the scientific facts which your stay- in this section has brought forth, tor ’.he good of mankind generally, and particularly tor those whose homes | arc here to be found. I am most respectfully and truly f »our obedient servant. II. II. Cari.ton, Editor “ Southern Banner.” reply. M r. Airy, Ga., June 3d, 1878. Dr. 11. 11 Carlton, Editor Southern Banner: Dear Sir—Your courteous note was duly ; received, and it is with sincere regret ! that I say, in consequence of being about to set out for Highlands in j North Carolina, that I have not time j to reply as the note and the subject 1 deserve. I can only say, regarding the •^country in general, that it has folly net my expectations both ns to aicturesqueness and salubrity. I have oo, everywhere inet with evidences if good order and returning prosperi- | v. It is in my judgement the most desirable region to reside in to be libund in the entire country. It > nerits all the enthusiasm that Prof. 1 Richards and family, formerly rcsi- i dents in your pleasant city, manifest is regard to it. But I should be gtlgrateful if I did not devote the few minutes that I have to spare, to some account of Mount Airy; since to many of your readers this beauti- ! ful spot may be comparatively un- known. It is situated at the highest point cn the Air Line road, at an altitude of 1000 feet, the surface of the ground being more than 100 feet above the roof of the court house at Clarksville, rearly above that of tbo College at Dahlonega and a few feet below that <f the court house at Cleveland. The hotel itself commands an ex* vedingly fine view of the Blue I ge, only inferior to that from the hboring hills. The view from ndview peak is panoramic and ily equaled. It is the admiration Arsons who have traveled exten- ,q#ely in America and Europe. ThiS^country around abounds in Pleasant/ places for rambling and in P»oerp^ springs for those who wish to vink their waters. When we arrivek on the 3d of last ’jjvcmher, tho hotel was unfinished, lying in it was very much like Ling out of doors. But after trav* mg from Atlanta to Gainesville, I Voided to remain at Mt. Airy; and either myself nor the company with ! -e ever had reason to regret my •icision. Indeed* we often had ^.casion to remark how fast the 'vBter was gliding away. Muoh of ■e contentment was due to the evi- bit effort of Col. Wilcox, our land* to do all in his power to make *r stay pleasant. His constant glance, his kindly, genial manner l his unremitting efforts for our mforl made us at home, if wc urnhled about incouvoniences inci- i dent to the newness of his enterprise and ihe unfinished slate of the house. And now when h:* is finishing his house in metropolitan stylej I look back with a kind of longing to ilie rudeness of last winter and wouder whether niv patients and I will enjoy ourselves equally another winter in the completed house. Certainly in valids of the same class can -never improve faster than did the great majority of those under my care at Mt. Airy. Long may it flourish, and summer aiyl winter may the genial landlord find people flowing into his j house and money into his safe. Begging you to excuse on account J of the circumstances under which it ! was written, the imperfect ness of my reply. I remain very respectfully yours. II. P. Gatciieli..

WILSON, mcli 12-3 m Chicago, Ii.l., Jan, 1, 1878. My Dear Dr. Gatciieli..—I wish I had to-day the intimate acquaint ance with honorable and excellent men in dear old Georgia that I had a quarter of a century ago, for then I could hope that this letter (on which I congratulate Georgia upon your re moval to its territory) would be of service to you, which it cannot possi bly be, in view of the forgetfulness which death and time and circum stances have conspired to throw around my name, spoken now in the homes and haunts of the Sunny South, I loved and frequented. There are, however, still those in positions of honor and trust and influence who have not quite forgotten nie. If you meet any of these I hope they will knotv how much I esteem and honor you for your personal w’orth of na ture and education, and for your long and high professional renown as a physician, and notably as a specialist in the knowledge and treatment of that insidious disease, consumption. Most heartily do I wish, my dear Doctor, that your experience, your skill, your kindness in all clinical ser vice may come to he appreciated in my dear old home, the uoble State of Georgia as it is in Illinois, and es pecially it is by Your sincere friend, W illiam Richards.
