W. & A. RAILROAD.
YVliat art Editor has to say of its Man
agement and Condition.
Macon Telegraph and Messenger.]
Atlanta, May 16th, 18?9.
The lessees of this great highway, be
sides promptly meeting their annual ren
tal, have added vast improvements, and
the road under its present able manage
ment is second to no other, north or south.
Heavy steel rails have been laid from At
lanta to Kingston, much of the bed is
ballasted, and the rolling stock has been
greatly augmented, and is in excellent
condition. Unmindful of the fact that a
considerable portion of their lease has
expired, the company continue to make
the most substantial and permanent im
provements, when it is manifestly to
their interest to expend as little as possi
ble in keeping up the roajj. Thus the
writer was informed by Governor Brown
that the lessees contemplate replacing
very shortly the present wooden bridges
over the .Chattahoochee and Etowah riv
ers, with permanent iron structures. In
deed, they have left nothing undone to
protect the property of the state, and,
moreover, have vastly reduced old freight
and passenger tariffs. When the lease
terminates, the commonwealth, after re
ceiving in cash
SIX MILLIONS OF DOLLARS,
the full value of the road, from the lessees,
will have it turned in infinitely better
condition than operated by the state,
and surely no one will accuse them of
ever having pursued an illiberal policy
towards the public. The very opposite
is the fact. For one, the writer would
he glad to see the contract extended for
another term of twenty years.
THE DADE COUNTY COAL MINE AND THE
STATE CONVICTS.
The extent and magnitude of the coal
mines operated by Governor Brown in
Dade county are known to but few. They
are situated near the line of the Nashville
and Chattanooga railroad and on the
very cofines of the state. A private rail
way connecting with the above road fur
nishes every facility tor transportation.
THE VEIN OF COAL
averages four and a half feet in thickness,
and extends for an indefinite space under
the mountain. The company own ten
thousand acres underlaid by this precious
deposit, and their operations are conduct
ed upon the most extensive scale. Four
hundred tons of coal are excavated daily
and delivered, besides five thousand bush
els of coke, which is indispensable in the
smelting process. The Rising Fawn iron
works consume almost the whole of this
amount, and are enabled to keep afloat
mainly through the cheap rates they pay
for their coke. From ten cents per bush
el formerly, they are now charged only
three or four cents.
This stratum of coal, unlike most de
posits, does not require to be worked by
sinking shafts to a great depth beneath
the surface, thereby incurring frequent
risk from mephitic air, water and caving,
but
CROPS OUT
from the side of the mountain, and is per
forated laterally. A tram-way has been
constructed into the heart of the moun
tain, and the cars are drawn by mules,
with lanterns suspended upon their fore
heads, and the creatures are trained to
work like automatons. The rocks that
overlies the coal is supported by uncut
sections of coal, supplemented when nec
essary by strong upright timbers. The
operatives are in no danger whatever,
and not the slightest accident has ever
occurred.
The mine is worked by
THREE HUNDRED PENITENTIARY CONVICTS
who are composed by law of those sen
tenced for long terms. When Governor
Brown assumed the control of these pris
oners, though provided with an abun
dance of bacon and meal, he found them
suffering from scurvy, caused by the
1 t'i’oah voguttlbloftj VA/uld IIUI
be procured in that vicinity. To remedy
this, he immediately ordered large quan
tities of potatoes, pickles and onions,
which soon restored the health of the
convicts. Then a force was detailed to
cut down and bring into cultivation a
large area of land upon which there is
now produced
IMMENSE QUANTITIES
of Irish potatoes, salads, turnips, cab
bage, tomatoes, cucumbers, beets, and
other vegetables. These are pickled in
barrels for wfnter consumption and a
heartier, better fed or more comfortable
set ot laborers cannot be tound anywhere.
To show how contented they are, the
principal keeper of the penitentiary, Mr.
Nelms, says, on a late occasion, when
some of the convicts bad to be removed
to other camps to make room for a batch
of prisoners recently sentenced for life,
the poor creatures with tears in their
eyes implored to be allowed to remain in
the mines, saying they were well eared
for and contented.
The governor very justly remarked
that the prisoners had been condemned
to bard work as a
PUNISHMENT FOR THEIR CRIMES
and it was bis duty to see that the sen
tence was executed.
The convicts were required to labor
faithfully, but their physical and moral
condition were also sedulously looked af
ter. We have never beard of any com
plaint of their treatment in the mines.
It is unfortunate that the state should
be reduced to the necessity of farming
out her convicts; but the great increase
in crime, owing to the premauire eman
cipation of so many ignorant negroes,
make it impossible to pursue any other
system. To do otherwise would bank
rupt the state treasury. But we do hold
that the most stringent safeguards
ought to be thrown around these unfor
tunate criminals, and those having them
in charge should be brought to condign
punishment for any crulties or harsh
treatment inflicted upon the helpless con
victs. We favor the system which is ob
noxious to a hundred objections, only
from necessity, and wish some better
disposition of those who are sentenced to
to pay tlie penalty of violated laws could
he devised.
THE TRIAL OF EX-TREASURER JOHN JONES
is now progressing. A powerful array
of counsel is employed on both sides,
Gen. Toombs leading for the state and
Hon. B. 11. Hill ‘for the defendant. A
number of witnesses for the prosecution
have been examined, and many intelli
gent men think that the outlook is very
damaging to the cause of treasurer Jopes.
It would be manifestly wrong, however,
upon ex parte evidence to pronounce any
opinion as to the final result, and we can
only hope that evenhanded justice will
he rendered in the premises.

At length the long talked of rival to
the Constitution seems about to take shape
in the publication of a morning paper,
about the first of June. We are inform
ed, by the editor-in-chief to be, of the
new enterprise, that $25j000 have actu
ally been paid into bank, and arrange
ments perfected for western dispatches,
which the Western Union telegraph com
pany have contracted to pass over theirline
from Nashville to Atlanta at about a. half
cent per, word. The whole estimated
cost of the dispatches is $75 per week.
The material is all on the spot, and Col.
Martin of Columbus Times will be the
political editor, assisted by Mr. Williams,
who recently retired from Atlanta jour
nalism. The local and reportoriai staff
has not yet been designated. It is under
stood that the backing of the concern is
very strong.
Whether Atlanta can support two daily
papers or not, is a problem yet to be
solved. We shall see.
Here emleth this epistle, and doubtless
j the wearied reader is greatly rejoiced.

Hygienic Physician and Electro-
Therapeutist,
Begs leave to the
citizens of Bartow', Gordon, Cobb, Cherokee,
and other counties of North Georgia, that for the
sake of rendering his mode of treatment more
universal and available, and the Health Institute
equally easy of access to patients in all parts of
the state, has removed from Rowland Springs to
Atlanta where he has permanently established a
Health Institute.
The Atlanta Health. In.sti.tdte
is the only institute south superintended by reg
ularly qualified Hygienic Pnyeicians, and the
only place where all" kinds of ‘ curable diseases
are scientifically treated without a particle of
medical drug in any form, and with success un
paralelled by any other known process of treat
ing diseases.
Parties who are, because of continued dosiug
and drugging, considered incurable, are re
spectfully requested to visit or correspond with
us. Thousands of chronic invalids, after having
patiently tried the “deadly virtues of the (drug
ophatic) healing art” and with no other change
than that of growing continually worse and
worse, have under the Hygienic system of medi
cation, been speedily and permanodtiy restored
to health.

INSTITUTE, No. 178 W. Peters street, or address
