Louisville, Ky., May 2lit, ’69.
Under the rule adop ed by the Con
vention, all resolutions wore to be intro
duced in the morning session of the 20 h,
the states being called aitd - fussed,
the permanent committees began to
report. The first being the committee
on the Great South ern Pacific Railroad,
which will bo found in our columns. As
will bo seen, it was adopted unanimous
ly, giving perfect satisfaction to all the
Southern States. Georgia can compete
for the eastern terminus, and her
chanecs are good indeed, if wo but man
age judiciously. And strange it may
be to our readers, yet, nevertheless true,
Dawson is within a few miles of the di
rect route, and may be in time on the
great thoroughfare of the Wost.
I need only say that Hon. Nelson
Tift was in the Convention and on that
committee, and, in his quiet business
way, was at work, and Georgia, yes
S. W. Ga., was not overlooked in his
calculations.
The report from tho committee on di
rect trade was not such as to meet the
Convention, and was being discussed
when we left.
No doubt but that our renders, many
at least, will have seen the acts and do
ings of the Convention, ere this appears.
Still we think it our duty to call espec
ial attention to the great enterprises,
.Jtbat have claimed the attention of thi
toody, And try to instill into the minds
<ol star readers the idea that we are not
, Jeatlbat liveth, aud, if we will, will yet
:be.ene of the greatest people on earth
Our act era I advantages arc of immense
import, and only need to be developed,
to make us not noly independent again,
but to be envied by those of our friends
North, who.now have all our money,
&o,,.tfci.
iiinoagh of this i.et us say a word
about the places wc have passed, that
had been visited by us before, which will
perhaps he of interest to t he “Dawson
Vo'unteer?,* if no cnc else.
After travelling all nigbf, on a
crowded, -se-eoud class sieepiu g-car,
(which W 6 respectfully recommend to be
put on the rolired list,) and failing to
got muoh sleep, wo heard the name of
Mumfordsvillf, and on enquiry, found
we would soon he at that noted little
Kentucky village. Hastily wo dressed
and got in position to see tho Iron
Bridge, the forts and breastworks, that
iho Southern troops capture 1, with near
5,000 prisoners.
We enjoyed the scenery, and “though
jihort” the visit, much better than we
did os former occasion. The mode of
transportation was more agreeable and
pleasant, and the breakfast we bad at
Bardstown Junction was a little mote
palatable than tbat give to us by Gin.
Braggs Commissaiies, and though it
was raining, still it did not compare with
tbat night when in line of battle in front
of Mumfordsville. We had a North
Wester to come, and nearly blow away
onr well worn blankets, and then the
soldiers friend, thatetieketh closer than
a brother “grey-back,” had all departed,
and instead of bearing the command,
fall in” (terrible words in those days,)
it was “all aboard,” which sounded much
more pleasent to our ears. Though we
were travelling with some distin
guished characters iu those days, yea,
the bravest of the brave, we must say
that our present companions and the ac
commodations afforded, made us enjoy
>.our second trip to Kentucky much mure
4ban the first. Many places wc passed
that would be recollected by the sth
Ga. Regiment, but will not name them.
jU is not pleasant to write about them,
.and surety would bring to the minds of
.the boys, the sufferings they bore for the
last cause. Strange, yet true, one of the
boys ia blue, that chased us out of Ken
incky, and ourself, bave -engaged berth
in the same state-room on board steamer
.for Cincinnati.
We hive talked the matter over and
bad a gocu tli?e generally, so there is
no danger of tL *v:ng to take the back
track again, that ft is to we nre not
so much alarmed now' as then, and the
yankee bad rather make a dollar now
than to free a nigger or fight a reb.
Owiog to the liberally of the South
ern Railroads, wo have travelled thus
far over 1100 miles, and have not paid
one dolUr, the roads giving to delegates
ehoioe of routes to return home. We
propose to go from this to New York,
and will have to call on our cashier to
fool the bills.
Our party so far has enjojed fine
health, exeept Mr. P., who was sudden
ly attached with a fit of asthma, while
passing through a tunnel, but am glad
to sav, that on seeing day-light, ho was
immediately restored to health, but
somewhat excited.
If not toe much taken up with sight
seeing, will write again from New York.
New Youk, May 25th, 1860.
Making only a short stay in Louis
ville, we bougat through tickets to this
city, and acted on the principle of the
man that selected the largest pair of
shoes he could find for his money, but
imagine wc came nearer getting tho
worth of our money than did he. Find
ing the price the same by ali the differ
ent routes, we selected the one by
Steamer to Cincinnati, thence by the
Great Western k Atlantic or Eric Rail
Road, passing through the richest por
tion of Ohio, into Pennsylvania, and en
tering New York iu the extreme North-
Western part of the State, near the
Lakes, running up the Susquehaua
some distance, and down the banks of
tho Dele ware for iqgrc than cue hun
dred miles. We found it quite cold in
the mountains, seeing frost on the morn
ing of tho 23rd, which to ns wss out of
place, but not at all surpri iog to the in
habitants, who had just commenced
to put in their corn, and plant their
gardens.
This rente, though not the shortest,
is by far the most desirable, having a
first-class Broad-Gage Railroad, with
the Lest of cars, making thirty to forty
miles to the hour, and giving to the
traveler, the best scenery in the United
States. For miles the track ip hewn
out of rooks at tho foot of the moun
tain, with the Deleware river below you,
say sixty to one hundred feat, making
one think of dangers, not pleasant.
In passing one of those long stretches,
one of tho train hands came to one of
our party and said to him, “to look out
and be would see in the river bciow, an
engine ands. urtecn cars tbat had been
thrown from the tract a few days be
fore.” We locked cut and found it to
be true, and our friend showed eviden
ces of misgivings and doubt 6 as to his
safe arrival in the city. We told him
that he need not fret that ho could not
help himself, wc were compelled to go
through on this roatc and thought it a
safe one. In this be aid not agree wi h
us, but “said he could not help himself
tie l , Lut cm thing was certain, if he
ever did get home, he reckoned he could
sCiiy there.”
Many are the sights to beseon on this
route, whieb well repays tho increased
distanco. The train oa which wc were,
"being a through train,” did not stop at
all the station s , but ran through cities
of more than five thousand inhabitants
without even blowing the whistle. Our
roaos at tLc Suutb, will give cnc time
to make a horse-swop «t any of the de
p ofs. D u t these people up here are all
in Little boys and gir’s walk
fask Ladies and gents talk fast and
walk fasu r - They are decidedly a live
people, and u<> everything on the two
forty schedule. This is all right, for it
is our opinion if they<. ,id I?ot g et around
a little lively, that there Wv' maD y
of them that would fail of a U v * R {(r * or
they are thickly settled and many ' u a
house. Strange it is that these farmer..'
do not go South, where they cau get |
land plenty and cheap. If our people
would go about the matter in earnest, !
many people of the North would go to ]
Middle and No; them Georgia, which to
us would be bettcrThan to have emroi
grants from across the water, and the
people of that section could send us
their negroes to make cotion, and vote
at election times.
Let Georgia do what e-te may for the
furthering of foreign immigration, and
she may succeed as to some localities,
but for our section, we are more con
vinced than ever that tLe negro is the
laborer for South-Western Georgia", that
is to say, if we expect to coutiuue to
raise cotton.
It is preposterous to think of any
other labor for that bu. incts, then let us
see to it, that we hold fast to those we
have, aDd get more if we can.
So long as white laborers can make a
living by working six months in the
year, in the rich valley’s of the West,
you cannot induce them to go South
and iabor the whole twelve- months,
which is necessary to maxe, gamer auu
send to market, a cotton crop. They
could do well at other business or
blanches of Agriculture, and would be
glad to see them iu our midst, and guar
antee kind treatment to all who may
come among us, jf he will leave his car.

Here we are in the great city, seeing
sights and wonders, and thus far have
made good uso of our time, but so many
have written about and described thetn
all, that we will not burthen our col
umns with an attempt to deseiibc what
we may nr have seen. Suffice it to 6ay,
one could stay hero a month, and go
away knowing but little of this, the
grpat metropo'U of the wtrli.

Trustee* and Faculty.
Tho attention, doubtless, of the Pro
fession throughout the country bus
.been arrested by tho attitude as
sumed, or tho position taken by the
Medical Association of the State in re
lation to the Atlanta Medical Cyllego,
of the merits of this controversy, we
forbear at the present to speak. But
may vve not, as the friends, and vindi
cators, as far as ablo, of tho interest of
the State, of the honor, and dignity of
our Profession, in the honor and ad
vancement of which is important to all
tho people May we not remonstrate,
and beg that something should be
done to restore the Institution to the
confidence of the Profession. We
have no suggestion to make, we simply
know, nod feel that something should
be done to take away all hostility, or
all opposition to the usefulness, and
success of an Institution for which both
the city of Atlanta anil the State have
spent their money. We repeat some
thing should bo done. What shall be
done, we are unable to advise. But
somebody is wise enough to advise,
will they not do it ? The new Board
of Trustees must be ignoran* of tho
causes which producod the difficulty,
cr controversy between the Faculty,
and the old Board of Trustees. They
certainly must be ignorant of the means
used by the Faculty before tbe Courts,
and the Legislature to maintain a po
sition which the Trustees declared ille
gal and procured !>y fraud, a positron
which compelled the Georgia Medical
Association to repudiate tl>9 Institu
tion, and its Graduates as unworthy
of recognition by the Profession of the
country. I repeat this new B >ird of
Trustees must certainly bo ignorant of
the facts which induced the Legisla
ture to appoint them and what was
expected of them by the Legi laturo
and the Profession. They certainly
1 have not read the new amended cliar
! ter.
I am not a member of the Georgia
Medical Association, but I endorse its
lute action in reference to the present
Faculty of the Atlanta Medical Col
lege. That -the Board of Trustees
may not be ignorant of this action, I
suggest that the Secretary, or publish
ing committee send each member of
the hoard a copy of the proceedings
as eoon as pub'ished.

Georgia, medical Association.
April 25. h, 1869.
Mr. Ewiob : I send you herewith
proceedings of the Medicaf Asocia
tion of Ge rgia clipped from the At
lanta Constitution, it will bes -en that
the meeting was unusually large and
interesting, all parts of the State beinj
represented. This action in reference
to tho Atlanta Medical College is a
subject of general remark in this sec
tion particularly among the members
Os the healing urt who seeru to be gen
.erui'v well pleased with the outspoken
anu 1 hiph toned position assumed in re
lation Jo ?-be long pending difficulties
of the CoiJoL’tf question, while outsid
ers may think tho denunciations of the
conduct of the Atlanta Faculty was
severe, the Goctoi.s 6vy that tne Asso
ciation could not have ®aid less with
out compromising theif ow u dignity
and doing injustice to the Profession
of Georgia, a large proportion of which
arc members of the Association against
which body were hurled the graye and
insulting imputations of the Atlanta
Faculty. The result ol this acti nos
the Association will bo*to place the
Faculty and its graduates outside the
pale of professional honors and recog
nition unless they unequivocally with
draw the objeotional language; and
until the present Faculty repudiates
the action of the former one It is af
firmed that unless this is done, neither
the Profession of GeDrg ; a nor the
American Medical Association can, or
will recognize them Thus it nppears
that the action of the three last sessions
1 of the Medical Association of Georgia
! have rebuked, and finally denounced
i the course of the Atlanta Faculty no
! unprofessional and unworthy. The
! Profession in Georgia and elsewhere
cannot therefore recognize them with
ig-o-;.,,, iim deliberate and repeat
ed action of their own central Body.
A Physician.
On the subject of the Atlanta Med
ical College, the following were adopt
ed :
YS’hereas, on the 3d of October,
18C8, a pamphlet was published by
order of the Faculty of the Atlanta
Medical College and spread before
the Legislature and the country, it,
which it was charged that the action
of this Association, which repudiated
the Atlanta Medical College as a regu
lar institution, had in it “un utter ab
sence of all the elements of truth,” and
that the annual session of this Associ
ation ia 1808, was a mating of physi
cians assuming to represent the medi
cal profession ol the State, and that
suuh annual meeting was made up al
most entirely o the Dr. Powell clique
of the city of Atlanta, and of members
of rival schools, and that the whole af
fair (Association or meeting) was got
ten up and consummated lor the very
pur} ose of injuring the Atlanta Medi
cal College; that the voice of the
State Meclival 8 ciety and of the.pro
fession was not heard; that the meet
ings of this Association are seldom at
teuded by any hut resident physicians
and a lew others who have some in
terest to advstjce; that the annual ses
sion in Augusta, as evinced by tho
names and votes, was such u meeting
of persons with interests to advunco. j
And whereas, *very part Hnd irisin- :
ation contained iu the above recital
of charges against this Association are
ful3e ami wore uttered with a full ’
knowledge at the time of all the facts
and circumstances in the ease as they
existed theu and now—modified by
the fact that the course which this fac
ulty were endeavoring to holster up ,
by pilch falsehood has been condemned
by the Legislature and the country —
a modification extremely damaging I
and condemnatory to them. This As j
sociation with but one dissenting voice i
at its lust session, place! tho sentence :
of condemnation on the conduct of the
Faculty in procuring the improper
amendmentof the charter giving them
selves unusual and unwarranted pow
ers. i'et in the face of tho declared
opinion of tho medical profession, in
the'faee of protest and objection by
the Board of Trustees, 'hey wen* on
in disregard of the exp -.sed will of
die Trustees and the pi., ession and,
held a session and conferred the degree
of Doctor of Mediciu > upo. 26 young

of which conduct W, hi the opinion of
this Association; de.-ogato-y to- the
character of the profess 1 n, and could
have been perpetrated only by men
more bent on selfish purposes than
with a view to elevate the standard ot
their profession : T herefore,
Resolved, That a proper self respect
on the part of this Association requires
of the former Faculty of the Atlanta
Medical College, a distinct and une
equivocal withdrawal ot the objection
able language usod in their recent
memorial and such withdrawal must
bo through the public journals of the
State.
Report of the Committee on
Southern Parifid Railroad.
“Mr. President and Gentlemen of the
Convention : Your committee, to whom
was refried matters relating to Paoifio
railroads respectfully seport the follow
ing resolutions :
“ Resolved , Tbat in the opinion of this
Convention ibe interests of the whole
country, especially those of the South
ern S ve*, could be served by a main
trunk railroad line from San Diego, Cal
ifornia, through to Junction river, Col
orado, and the Gila, aud along the val
ley of the Gila south of that liver to E;
Paso on the Rio Grande, and thence to
a convenient central point near the 32nd
parallel of latitude east of Brass s river
in the S ate of Texas, from which maiu
trunk feeder roads should load from St.
Louis, Cairo, Memphis, Vicksba r g, New
Orleans, an! other points, alPcf which
feeder roads to have equal rights of con
nection with said m» n trunk, while situ
ilar feeder roads trom San Francisco,
and other points on the Pacific c ast,
should have similar equal rights if con
n.ctino.
‘ Resolved, That the President of he
convention bo requested to forward a
copy of this resolution to tho Provident
ot the United Jitates, the ,Yiee Presi
dent, and Speaker of the 1] use of Rep
resentatives, and uqm st them to pres at
the same to the respective houses of
Congress.”
The comuiit'ee, which is composed of
representatives from seventeen btates,
including three members of Congress,
give the following reasons for the report :
First—lt is the Shortest line correct
ing the Gulf of M xieo and the vuli< y
of tbe Mississippi with lie coast ot the
Pacific ocean.
Second—lt is the line of all those now
unoccupied, the most easy of grades ana
cheapest of construction per mile.
Third—lt pass's through a less in -
hospitable aud barren country, and over
more fertile and hospitable lands than
any other uooccupud route propos.d.
Fourth—l ue itue is touched by wa
ter transportations at thr e points, afford
ing the greatest facilities for construct
ion, and consequently hastening and
cheapening such construction.
Fifth—This hue will open to the
world the great mineral resouces of Ar
izona and Sonora, abd render more val
uable tha great stock raising districts of
Texas, New Mexic i and Northern Mex
ico, and will thus etj u irivalltd (ratio.
Sixth —It will in .bly attract nu
merous feeders from lie neighboring Re
public of Mexico, and thus not only
stimulate enterprise there, but secure
to our shipping ports a greater portion
of the bullion which now seeks Europe
by hazardous conductors and smuggling
vissels.
7th. It will open anew cotton-grow
ing area in Texas, Now Mexico and Ar
iz'na iu lands of the co'.i on-growing belt
that were useless for lack of facilities
for transportation.
Bth. It is well known tb&tsomo roads
which would be among the feeder roads
r< f rred tu in the resolution have not on
ly been jirospected but are already in
ac tve course of cccsirnct oa without
waiting for government subsidy or en
couragement.
9th. List, though not least, the con
struction of this route more than all else
beside, will cucourago and build up
what we feel to be tue great ncces.-i y of
the hour, immigration and direct trade
wish Europe.

Madison Cos., Fla., May 25. b, '69
Pear Sir:—l s-c a statement in the
Savannah News that tho erops in Mad
ison oounty wero generally good. As far
as my observation extends—l am sorry
to bave to report differently —L do not
reco Lot of cv<r having seen cotton as
backward during the whole of my ex
perience as a plattur, which has been
near forty years. Tho plant in nmt
places is dwarfed, and has a sickly ap- ,
pearance, and on many plantations tie
grasshoppers have destroyed the stand.
I havo sustained considerable damage
by their depredations. Tbe spring has
been unusually cold and wet-, aud, we
still have a continuation of cold nights,

It would be premature to form an
opitii m of the y ieid of the cotton crop
at this season of the year. All experi
enced planters know that six weeks of
title cotton seasons in the months of
July and August will always make a full
crop, that ia, of short cotton. It re
quires a much longer time to make the

resort to manuring and planting less

Appointment or Tsiiner.—The ap
pointment of the negro Turner to the
Post office in Macon, is such an outra
geous insult to the peo; le of Georgia
that we cannot let it pass without com
ment—not that Turni r is by any ineane
tho worst iti the party iu Macon. On
the contrary, we think he is superior, in
every respect, to most of his white
associates. But the insu't lies in he
deliberate and apparent purpose of the
administration to humiliate and degrade
the white rare. Here is a eity of ten
or twenty thousand population, an old,
wealthy and highly intelligent city; a
strong rrigiual secesion city; one that
gained in the late war a& many laurels
for gallantry and steadfast pa riotism as
any c mraunby of the same pnjiTation
in the entire South. She must there
fre be degraded. A negro thrust upon
her in a position that compels peisonal
contact wiih more citizens than any
othgr office. Not on'y the white mao,
but the refined and cultivated lady, and
the little timid, tender girl, roust all ap
proach this black prince a;.d his black
assneia es, jnd, wbh ou t humility ask

refinement if torture, it is worthy the
conception of a Butler—but we were
loth to believe that a soldier wou'ds'oop
so low. Well, well, we bide our time.
