The latest person to speak on this
subject is Mr. Dana, of the New York
Sun, who visited Chattanooga a few
days ago to be present at the meeting
of the Southern Press association, as
the representative of the New York
Associated press.
Mr. Dana’s trip has made him ns
enthusiastic as Mr. Kelly, Mr. Cam-
eron a) j t j ie others who preceded
him, and lie tells editorially, as fol.
lows, of what he saw here, and the
great advance the South has made
in the last twenty years:
A went excursion from Washing.'
ton to Lynchburg, and thence
through Bast Tennessee to Chatta¬
nooga, has put us in possession of
some facts of high interest.
The -first and most impressive is the
disappearance of all traces of the civil
war. If there was any region which
was utterly devastated, hoof-tram^
pled and battle-scarred, it was Fair,
fax county. Not a fence was left
there, and scarcely a tres that could
be cut down and converted into fuel.
Marched over, fought over, burned
over by both armies, it was indeed a
waste. ,
Chattanooga, with the region
around about, was in a similar con¬
dition. Almost every foot of the
broad and beautiful basin in which
that town is situated had been con.
verted into earth works of one sort
or another. There were forts on
every point of prominence, and rifle
pits edged the plain and traversed it
hither and thither. On the northern
slope of Mission Bidge no available
tree, scarcely a shrub, had been left
standing.
Yet not a vestige of war can now be
seen either in the vicinity of Wash¬
ington or the vicinity of Chattanoo¬
ga, or in any part of the country in¬
tervening, hotly and as often as it
was fought for by the opposing
armies. Nature and the hand of man
have everywhere wrought a miracle
of obliteration. New groves have
sprung up, and a fairer sight cannot
be seen upon earth than greets the
traveler from every hill-top and val¬
ley of the long line between the two
eities. -
A still greater wonder is the kind
of agriculture that is now witnessed
in these old slave states. Formerly
w*wwl*>rip "i vUC liem wymmni v»x /v( alo,vavv mwvrry, mo iuuuj n-u a>x
the farms had a dilapidated, desulto¬
ry, and often a lazy, shiftless look
but this is no longer so. A broktn, neg¬
lected, poor fence is not to be seen be¬
tween Washington and Chattanooga.
Thrift, order, skill and prosperity
mark the whole country. Better ag¬
riculture or more beautiful farms we
never witnessed. Long Island, the
agricultural region with which we
happened at the present moment to
be most familiar, is shabby and care,
less in comparison. Even the homes
of the negroes, as they are seen from
the railroad, wear an appearance of
care and cleanliness. The change is
marvelous, and it bears testimony
unequaled to the vitality and power
of freedbm.
The transformation in the land and
its culture has gone on simultaneous¬
ly with another change, a new inspir¬
ation of unity and patriotism in the
minds and hearts of men. It is a
great country, and the blessing of
God rests upon it!

Andrew Carnpgie writes a paper in
the North American Review on
the subject of “Wealth,” and the
first sentence reads as follows: “The
problem of qur age is the proper ad¬
ministration of wealth, so that the
ties of brotherhood may still bind to¬
gether the rich and the poor in har¬
monious relationship.” Following
