Senator Brown introduced a $75- 00Q, bill to build post office and cus lonj house in Brunswick- THE FIRST TRAIN. From the MaCon Telegraph and- Messenger. “You’ll find him in room 58,” said George Brow.:, as tve ran our eye over the register at Brown’s Hotel yesterday afternoon. “Come in,” was the answer to our rap on the door of 68, and in we walk ed. “When did you leave Atlanta, Ma jor ?” This was the first question thrown at Maj. McCracken, whom we found in the room, “We loft at 8 o’clock this morning, but we have consumed the day in lo cating sites for depots,sidetracks, etc., besides we wanted to examine the road. The road from here to Stockbridge is in condition to run thirty miles an hour over, and we will soon have the other portion of the road in a like con dition.” “How did you like the road?” “Fine. It is all right, and I am pleat ed with it. How do you like it, Beat ty ?” The Major addressed this question to Captain Miles X. Beatty, the assistant superintendent of the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad. “Splendidly,” replied the Captain. “When will the regular trains be put on ?” “By the 15th. I stated in my dis patch last night to you that it would be the 20th, but I am not quite certain the trains will be running through by the loth. At least I intend to do all I can for it.” “You are now running to McDon ough, Major. Will the next schedule go to the next station, or to Atlanta ?” “There will he no change until we go right into Atlanta.” “How has travel been on the present schedule ?'* “Oh, well, it pays about forty dollars a day. We have no doubt but the travel will he great. You know we have not carried a pound of freight yet.” “Can you give us any information about the Rome division ?” “Yes. I have just received a tele gram from Sample, in which he says that the force is getting along very well with the tunnel. With the exception of these three miles of tunneling we arc getting along finely, and the Rome division will he through by the 10th of August, which wiil complete the line.” “One more question, -Major. Is the rolling stock ready for business?” “Everything ready. Ad the rolling stock necessary is at Knoxville, lie have thirteen engines at work on the construction now.” “How long do you stay in Macon?” “We return to.morrow. Redid not finish onr business along the road, and have so much to do before the 15th that we have not a moment to spare.” Our reporter then went down stairs and struck up Ruth Col, NY. L. King, the veteran ,:aok-Uy<-r. " Well, you helped Col. Adair drive the last spike yesterday.” This by way of a conversation-opener. “I did. I helped make the connec tion, and I am proud to know that the work is so far advanced.” “When did you commence laying the track of the new road ?” “I commenced on the 17th of last January, but I puckered around here some time getting ready to start. On the 22J day of January we had the track laid across Fifth street, and then we went right on, but you know tmirli rainy weather we had. IKe havn’t had ninety good days to work in. I've got a good force of hands, and I did some big track-laying yesterday. By actual time, my men put down and spiked and got ready for the ears 1,350 feet in one hour and thirty-five minutes. On another count we laid 4,050 feet in five hours and fifteen minutes.” “That was when you were hurrying I up to drive the last spike ?” ‘ Yes. My hands had 2.400 feet to lay, and the contractor at Atlanta had 800.' I was working convict hands that I had trained, and he had regular hands I beat him one rail. By the way, let me introduce you to Mr. Frank Reid, one of our conductors.” Handshaking. “Mr. Reid, came from the Cincinnati Southern, and has been with us some time. He and T. m Ware will take care of the passengers.” ‘‘When will you turn over the road to tlie company ?” “That I don’t know. We will work in a hurry to put the road in good safe condition.” “Where will you go then ?” “I will remain with the road as road master. I want to live and die right here in Georgia. I like the old State mighty well, and the climate just sui ts me; hut I have fought mud and rain awfully sine* I commenced work. Yes, I will stick to the road.” The special train left Atlanta yester day morning at 8 o’clock, and we reach ed Macon about G o’clock p. ill., stop ped at all the stations and arranged sites for depots at once for the imme diate transaction of business, show ing their great desire to get the road ready for the public at the earliest pos sible moment. In the party that carnc down were Major H. V. McCracken, his secretary Mr. W. M. IMeKown, C'api. M. X. Beatty, Col. W. L. King and Col. Geo. Adair, the real estate men of Atlanta. They were all at Brown’s Hotel last night. ... At the supply yard, we noticed that the yard was clear of rails and cross lies.* It will be remembered that the supplies of rails and cross-ties for the entire line were piled up in the yard before the work of construction com menced. Just to see how closely these railroad builders can calculate, we in quired of Major Storey if they had miss ed the calculation any. “Not by a rail. The company knew exactly how many rails and bow many lies were wanted, and there is not a single rail nr tie over. We have here apout 5,0*10 ties in the yard, but they are needed for the side tracks.” And then our reporter went away, believing that railroad building is a t-i"ger thin- than it look*. JK KSOV OS A BOOM The Center of Attraction in Biddle Georgia. Some t'oiuh. That Jackson, the county site of Butts county, Ga., is tiie most favored of any section, at this timo in Middle Georgia, is evinced Joy the fact, that people from all over the State have got their minds centered here, and many who visit us are buying property, and speak in the highest terms of the town and surrounding country. Jackson is centrally located between Macon and Atlanta, and the only place, in a com mercial point of view, of any impor tance on the Macon and Brunswick railroad Extension, and situated on the highest elevation of any town in this sectiou, which makes its site a commanding one ns regards this sec tion of Georgia. A level, fertile soil surrounds us, and the healthfulness of the locality, pure water, good drainage and no cesspools of filthy water sur rounding us is beyond question. Jackson has four churches, colored and white, respectively fl/ethodist and Baptist. In addition to good primary schools, a move is on foot to establish a high school, with one of the most eminent teachers of a Georgia college as principal. Strenuous efforts will he made to build a nice college, in the beautiful grove where the academy now stands, the work of which, we think we are safe in saying, will be commenced as soon as material can be had. Thebusiness portion of Jackson si sit uated about a half mile from the rail road. Substantial brick stores being much safer from fire and beautifying to the town, our council have past a wise law, prohibiting any wood struc tures from being erected in the busi ness portion of the town. Several brick stores are in course of erection, and many more will soon follow. Sev eral brick yards are doing a thriving business. A large lumber yard and machine shop will soon be established. Our boarding houses cannot supply the demand made upon them. Onr merchants, professional men, and citi zens generally, are inteligcnt, courte ous and enterprising. Butts will rank with the best agri cultural counties in the State. Her citizens arc of the very best class of Georgia farmers—men who by honest toil have surrounded themselves with most of the comforts and luxuries of life. While the cerealia, cotton etc., are made their staple crops, you have but to look around ami observe that they do not neglect their orchards, vineyards, beehives and other indus tries that go to make up the comforts of a country home in this land of “milk and honey.” The soil of our county, overlying a subsoil of clay, is princi pally of a dark, rich color. Clay ren ders land of unlimited improvement by holding the fertilizers put upon it. The crops of this section are larger than for several years past, and if continued to he blessed with copius rains, those yet to ripen will yield in abundance, and it maybe said “peace and plenty crown thesmiling land.” The railroad is now completed from Atlanta to J/acon,giving usdirect com munication with Atlanta, and more direct outlet to the West. lie invite all in search of a pleasant, attractive and as healthy a home as could be de sired or secured in all the country to come to Jackson, now the most favored spot in Georgia. We have the pretti est location for a town that could be desired, if health, wealth, society, a railroad and beautiful, level fertile soil is of any inducements. Major McCracken, and others passed down the Extension, last week, on the first train that come through from At lanta. JFe learn lie expressed himself well pleased with the road. We learn the site for the depot at J/cDonough is abootahalf mile this side of the town ; at Locust Grove, one mile the other side, where Mr. Adair purchased a lot of land. The depot at Jackson will be located about two hundred yards south of Altnands brickyard, on the right of way. We learn a big excursion will lie run about the2otli and the freight trains will be put on by that time or before. Over two hundred hands are at work on the long trestle beyond McDonough. You can rest assured that Maj. Mc- Cracken will give all the accommoda tion desired as soon as the road will admit of it. Congress adjourns July 10th Senator Hill is well euough to take evening rides. Col. Tom Hardeman declines the use of his name for congressman at large, and #ill make the race for stale senator from the Bibb district.

A Visit to Jackson. From the Conyers Examiner. On Mondayjof last week, ye Edit or boarded the “mule train" of Capl- Loyd, the mail carrier, at Covington for the town ot’Jackson, Butts coun ty. The mail, route between Coving ton and ,/acksoii is through the best farming section of both Newton ami Butts counties, and along the entile route the growing crops gave encour aging evidences o! fine seasons and the prospect tor an abundant harvest next fall. It was particularly notic able that a much larger area lias been devoted to the raising of breads!tiffs than for a number of years past, and the bi oad fields of _ waving corn re minded us of the good old days when the farmers ot Georgia were indepen dent of the West, and luxuriated in the “bog and hominy” of their own production. After a pleasant days drive with Capt. Loyd, an unfortu nate who lost his right arm in fight ing tile batiks of the “lost cause” in Virginia,[but who is cne of the most genial companions with whom we ev er had the pleasure of traveling w ith, we arrived at ./ackson about 5 o'clock p. m., and look up quarters w ith the Editor of the News, which, by-tlie way. is the head centre of the town, the News and Post Office being in the same building. While in Jackson we had the n’cas uro ot making the acquaintance of some of the leading citizens, among whom was Col. Van JMcKibben, the leading lawyer of Butts county, ns well its among the foremost gentle men of means and public spirit whose energy and enterprise will largely contribute to the making of Jackson,' one of the principal towns of Middle Georgia at no distant day. A daily passenger train is now run ovor the Brunswick Extension and hardly a day pB< 8 that strangers are not in town prospecting for business lots with the view of locating and build ing up the town. The only draw back that hampers life advancement to ,/aekson, at present, is tie scarcity of lumber, hut that want will soon be relieved when the roil road commen ces to transport freight. Our enter prising fellow citiz >n, 11. I*. Almand, will commence, in a few days, to erect three commodious business bouses, the brick for which are already on the ground ready for us>, and when the freight trait • are put upon the road, such a building boom will take place it. Jackson that has not been witnessed in that section for a eeutu ry. Among the genial acquaintances that we had the pleasure of making while at Jackson, was ,/iidge H-irk ness, fami iarly known as “Uncle./ini’ one of the original settlers of Butts county, who lias beer a tesident ol that comity for upwards of sixty years having carved his own fortune by industry and frugality, and ranks among the most substantial cilzens of of the comity and has filled many po sitions of trust and honor, among which maybe mentioned t lie Repre sentative of Butts in the Legislature more than once. Wo also made the acquaintance of Messrs. Land, M. L Duke, Col. Wright, and others, gen tlemen of progressive ideas who are devoliug their energies to building up the town. The principal topics of discussion were the future prospects of ,/Jcksou and the stock law, which question Hie citizens of Butts will vote upon on the 19th ol July. We were unable to guess at the probabil ities of the no fence party, as the question is represented by responsi ble and influential citizens on both sides. It is a noticeable I act, howev er, that Butts county almunda with numerous herds of fat, s eek cattle, sheep and hogs, that gra/.s upon the nninclosed lands, and that there is no scarcity of timber—probably one-ball the county being orig nal forest. On Sunday wo bid adieu to our friends in Jackson and traveled by | prevate conveyance to Hampton, 2 i | miles distant, across the b*st portion ‘of Henry county, and along t he rouie we saw many valuable fains with flourishing crops. The no fence lwa being in force, quite a lumber ol farms were '‘tin ned out,” and we on ly saw in the distance we traveled in Henry, hut one cow and calf, not even a hog, sheep or goat. We pre sume. however, that the eirciinstance wat owing to the fact that tie stock pastures were not located insight ol the road we traveled. A somnambulist named Richard Miller, while walking in hie sleep near Ilomer, [Ga.,] a lew nigtiv* ago, went to a mill under the delusion that a s*orm wus raging, that t was necessary to get tinder the mill for safiy. While under the mill be was bitten several times on the foot, by a moccasin snake. He returned to the house shortly after, awoke, realized that he was snake b'iten, sent for a doctor and is now recovering. The army worm is lapping up some VUltima wheat fields like fire. hr I npa id i elters to be For warded. Postmaster Conley of Atlanta bas received from the Third Assistant Postmaster General instructions to the effect that on and after Saturday last, whoever any short paid matter [being otherwise mailable] is deposit, ed in a free delivery effico and con. signed to any address within the United States, it shall bo the duty ot the postmaster to send an official postal card to the addressed, notify* ing him of its detention, and that it is necessary fov him to remit the amount ot postage due thereon before same can be fm warded to destination. Hitherto-carriers have delivered such mail, and acted as collectors lor the deficient postage. This provision will apply only to matter which does not bear the card or address of the sender, Such card matter will be returned immediately to the parlies sending il, as prescribed by existing regulations. A Magdalen wrote a few days since to a daily paper in one ot our large cities to know who would as sist her to rotorm. Unhappily the question is hard to answer, though it will be conced'd by all that help must conib from virtuous women. So eieiy bears down hard on the wo men who falls, and it is her own sex who treat lit r with the greatest se verity. Women are very much like the Siperian wolves; when one of their number is shot down the rest pounce upon it and devour it Doub - less there are hundreds ot these poor creatures, who, like the one who have instanced, are anxious to get hack into the right path, and are holding forth their hands in earnest, supplica tion for .assistance. Until good wo men extend their aid and place these poor creatures in an atmosphere of innocent pleasure, there will he but little chance lor their pe'imtiieul re d i mption. ‘ Forsyth, July I—\ twelve year old sou of Dr. B.
