Wlien I last wrote, the Ex position had just closed, and All inta dwelt in a halo of glory. Since then tune ,. , has been busy with its changes. The new year lias brought with it a harvest of disasters, Several of the foremost merchants have failed; great fires have swept away some of the lar gest buildings in the city, and plaints among business men are gen eral. The multitude of failures else where are producing their natural effect upon the merchants here. The FAILURE OF THE MESSRS. AVYLY is a notable illustration. Commencing business soon after the war, they built up an extensive reputation, and were regarded as one of the STAUNCHEST HOUSES IN GEORGIA. Suddenly it seemed as if a wave of financial d isaster swept over the land ; one after another their country custo¬ mers went down, and tlie Wylys soon fell with the crash. In the town of Hampton alone seventeen houses failed. In the aggregate they owed the Wylys about $20,000. Fortunately fo.i Atlanta it luis A SPIRIT OF RECUPERATION quick to retrieve disaster. Some of tlie failing lirrr s have come ■(promised with their creditors and will resume business. Upon the site of the burned buildings other, and in 8om cases better houses, will be erected.

While on a recent trip to Brunswick I took occasion to make a short trip to Florida. Leaving Atlanta amid sleet and rain and smoking ruins, I awoke on the 1 ’. fellowiii” 1 morning in the warm sunshine and balmy air «t these- ■ onast ■ The breezes were just fresh enoi go to ,he exhilarating. There was nothing sh^’ Por * cliillinff ^ in the atmosphere. of the ohles, and * Brunswick is one prettiest towns in Georgia. It was laid out by General Oglethorpe when Georgia was first settled, and the streets and squai es were fashioned on the same plan as those of Savannah. Its population is about 3 . 700, but the tow., steads over a stretch of territory equal to that of more populous places, The ground is entirely level and the streets are lined with large Pees, fes tooned with drooping mc-sa, Many of built would do credit to a place of much greater size, aud the L’Aiiosa C lub Hall is fitted up with as handsome seen ay and comfortable seating ar rangemeiits as some more pretentious lack theatres I have seen. Theie is a cn.de rural • >k to ^V^Tini'.e pleasant fd«« is good the air and of it refiue- was quite to note iru iil which prevailed among a large S it 'T^'fast ™ The causes of this are natural. Brunswick is genen llv conceded to be one of the t wo best harbors on tbe Atlantic, and the long rows of wharves lined with in" Urn deep w.. ter at their edge, some from Sweden, ,s;. w j., an< j other distant countries, bore evidence of its importance as a seaport. large amount of vacant land in the town and its vicinity is owned by a New York millionaire who during the past few vears has paid upon it thous 0 f doltvws in taxes, but refuses to sell any portion, however smalt. To ! this evidence of faith in its future may be ad led the expressed intention of WoVfl of the Er i anger Syndicate to m{V ke jt Hie outlet of his vast railway system. The climate in winter is ! he Rhy and delightful superior, it is : chi lined to that of Honda; and the j neighboring resort of Cumberland Island, with its fine surf and fresh breezes from the sea affords a fine ! refuge With from regret the 1 heat left Brunswick of summer. by some rail for Waycrosi, and thence in one 1 () f the comfortable cars of the Savan nah, Florida & Western railroad pro ceeded on my way to Jacksonville, TRAVEL TO FLORIDA FROM THE NORTH is immense, and greater now than it has ever been. The long train was crowded with passengers, and with few exceptions they were unmistakea bly from beyond Mason & Dixon's line. Some were consumptive-looking with great streaks under the eyes; others looked as if the consumption lay nearer parlor the stomach. Iu the luxurious cars I saw more stout, gross looking women than one will meet with in Georgia in a week. The crowd on board the train was typical of the groat tnas; of lr..vellers to be found all over Florida. The slave bolder of ante helium days who went North and scattered his money in lordly style has given place to the r cli northerner who spends his winters in a southern clime. In Floiida they have adapted them¬ selves to the situation and are as familiar with the “fleecing” reputed process as our northern neighbors arc to have been. They draw the blood from the bloated bondholders with the FIERCE GUSTO OF TIIFIR NATIVE MOSQUITO. large portion of those "°r who 7 profit r„': l.y the influx of strangeis aie Horn othei states themselves.

The limits of this letter d> not permit. T.iere is much about it i shall long remember with pleasure. There are lovely spots that in the days to come will flash upon the mem ry in visions of beauty. The rich sunshine, the soft, balmy air, the fragrance of tlie fruits and flowers; the St. John’s spreading out with broad magnificence into a chain of tropical lakes, the little villages and lovely winter homes nestled here and there along the verdant bflnks and the groves of oranges with their wealth of golden fruit were among the glimpses of a> other clime that lingered with vivid distinctness as the cars again rolled 111 - to tlia mud and rain and chilling winds of Atlanta. I can imagine 110 m re de lightful transition than the change so quickly made from all the rigors of a northern clime to the spring-like soft ness of Florida. All along the St. lent John’s hotels, are winter fitt. d retnats up in elegant with excej- style and with the best of fare. At all of tl)6m fil)d num l,ei 3 of horthern and western pe0 ple.
