those in attendance was General W T.
Sherman He had been invited by
managers of the Exposition to attend on
that day and was tendered a formal recep¬
tion. He declined the reception, however,
preferring to appear simply as a private
person and as a member of the
Association. At the meeting he took
hack seat, and was dressed in
elothes. his staff being habited in
manner. After the oration of the
hafl been delivered by General Henry R.
Jackson, General Sherman was
upon, and responded in a short
He protested hie unwillingness to speak
or to take any conspicuous part in the ex¬
ercise.*, and concluded in a few
expressed with admirable tact and sense.
He likewise excused himself from attend
ance on the banquet that night, having
accepted an invitation to attend the opera
with his staff. The manag-rs of the Ex
position provoked much criticism by
posing to give him an ovation on the
niversary of tlia burning of Atlanta. The
people of Atlanta were willing to
him a respectful ami even cordial
tion in hi* official capacity as Command¬
ing General of the army, but were not. sat¬
isfied to give prominence to the bitterest
recollection in their history. Last
day being the anniversary of that event
it was selected by the committee in charge
anil the fact duly announced to the public.
Gen. Sherman however, with a sense of
the fitness of tilings which lias elicited the
kindest comments from those who least ad¬
mire him, declined the ovation tendered.
Many who would not have shown hint atten¬
tion under other circumstances have
praised Ills action and offered tlielr con
gratulations In person
MR. STEPHENS IN ATLANTA.
Mr. .Stephens arrived at .vl.' Monday
evening and took quarters at the Kimball
House, where he remained until U:!5 on
the following afternoon. He left then for
Washington City. Much attention wns
shown him and crowds of friends and
strangers called to pay thoir respects.
An invitation to visit the Exposition was
tendered by the managers, but owing to
the condition of his health, he did not feel
able to attend. Quite a pleasing Incident
occurred on the evening of his arrival
Moon after reaching his room he called the
attention of some friends who were pres¬
ent to the fact that within a few steps of
that spot one of the most critical scenes
of his life had been enacted. The memo¬
rable assault by Judge Cone in IMS was
then mentioned. While the conversation
was in progress a new visitor entered, and
Mr. Stephens beheld for the first time
since that memorable occasion the man
who had bound up the bleeding artery and
saved his life. This gentleman was I)r
Hitchcock, at that time a surgeon on the
statf of Gen. Taylor, then on his way
North under orders from the seat of war.
He was unable to stop more than a short
while, and left soon after the occurrence
|( , RVtnR pa tieut in charge of others.
They had never met since. Years ago
the doctor went to California and is now a
resident of San Francisco.
ANOTHKK EXODUS.
A few days ago my attention was di¬
rected to huge piles of trunks and boxes
which blocked the sidewalks and filled tbe
baggage room at the Union Passenger
Depot, lit response to an enquiry about
them 1 was informed that a large num¬
ber of emigrants from various part, of
Georgia were on their way to Texas, and
that many more were expected to leave in
a short while. It gave rise to a train of
varied reflections, and conspicuous among
(hem was the picture of broken down and
seedy looking individuals straggling back
in the " years years to come 1111 . with won meagre meagre caruet larpn
sacks, seeking an abode once more among
