THE MACON. DAILY TELEGRAPH AND MESSENGER: THURSDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 11, 1873. (Telegraph (QJflr sseitfltr THURSDAY MORN'IV si:pt. ii.l" lCditorint Corr<>i>»iHJcncc. Pulaski llocsx, ) Eataki-'ah. Si i.tcmber 6.) Leaving Long Branch on tho after noon of the 301* uhur»,the writer started for Fhilft.ie!phi.i in the regular throogh train going South. The weather wae warm, and the aeenery for tho ma jor portion of tho way to Cam den tame and unintereating. The aoD, too, waa generally of a white, gravelly character, incapable of producing any foreat growth aave a few stunted dwarf pine* and straggling hushes. It was pre cisely like the land near Wilmington and Savannah on the southern seaboard, save that the abundant carpet oT grass was wanting. But ■CCKLXBKIUUKH world without end grow here, aud it was no longer s matter of surprise where the immense quantities of this indigenous fruit in the New York market came from. On the whole our impressions of the " Jancft" were very far from favorable. tkk “ADvr.vTEBH”—a raosKLTTnfo snmu Occupying the tamo scat with your humble servant was a rather good looking, plainly dres.-cd lady, the make-up of whose head gear utterly ignored modem curls, switches and fruzing, while the cut of her modest slapacs might have belonged to the nut century. Still she was scru pulously neat and possessed fine oyes and regular features. After a little she pro duced a package of tracts, and began to read, easting an occasional furtive glance upon us. Readily interpreting her ob ject, wo ventured to ask tho loan of ono of them. This was quite sufficient to un- bottle the pent up sympathy and abound ing zeal of tho pious sister. At onoo it became her mission to pluck this brand from the burning, and at it she went with unmistakable fervor. Wo bad evidently fallen upon a Utter day ncxALK mkachiss, and yo gods, how sho could talk. It was astonishing, too, how familiar tho was with tho Bible, and with what adroitness she waa able to separate particular versa, from the context, and mako them give point to her own doctrines. After mildly interposing an objection or too, simply to draw her out, wo surrendered tho field, and relapsing into silenoe, became as at tentive and passive listener. This female zealot l«Ionged to the sect known os "Advent Christians,” and "MiUerites.” All her tracts, of which she bestowed upon us a goodly number, treated of those doctrines, and evincod not a little force and ingenuity. Of course, tho new fanglcd religion HAD ITS USB Ilf HASSACHtJRKTT8, and is chiefly confined to that b-matic J wo coin tho word) people. A certain ievonmd (so-called.) Beaumont of South ('uroliiia, is a burning and shining light in Unit benightod region, however, and the "man and Iwother" follows him with hooks through their noses and dimes in their palms. Tho preacher in petticoats, deelaird that the wicked never rose again, but perished forever, like brutes of the field. The soul of the righteous man also, at death, went hack to the God who gave it, and his body rested in the earth until tliu resurrection mom. Then there would le i.'.'.ved Will ij..!

There are also on the premises buildings called Injuries, where tripe and calve3-foet are washed and 1 oiled, melting-houses for tallow, sitji attics for drying skins, lofts for fodder, etc. Cattle and sheep kept here at the letteher’s expense.

This was her argument in nutshell; and her eye kindlod with fanati' col enthusiasm as oho dilated upon it. Upon inquiry, we learned that thu unc tuous sitter was returning, actually from a camp-meeting held hundreds of miles distant in Springfield, Massachusetts. She bad a husband—alas, an ungodly one, she said—and two children in Cam den. New Jersey. Yet nho had left them all and gone forth on tills heavenly mis sion. and camped and worked in the open air as ban! as any of the brethren. This woman was undoubtedly A SrSCIMEN SHUCK »f tho Northern strong-minded female xerJots, who ignore the t rue sphere and duties of their sex. have usually red noses and angular persons, and do their utmost to turn the whole world upside down. It was quite e\l%lcut tlmt ,W ruganliut the depouent as a trophy of her how and spear, until atmek dumb with tho in formation that ho was Presbyterian ii: his faith and doctrine, and regarded her pernicious opinions as tho very embodi ment of Anti-Christ. After that nho " smelt a rat,” and dropped him like hot potato. With unspeakable pily for tho fate of her poor husband, we parted with our proselyting companions at Camden, and easting orerlioard her budget of tracts, traversed tho city of brotherly lovo in a street car, and at 11 r. x. was safely landed in tho beautiful city of NOkniSTOtTN', n.NNSVI.VANIA. Here, in the pleasant companionship of dear friends and citizens of Macon, we ]>aasod tho holy Sahhath, and enjoyed tho sweet tranquility of tho day. In tho forenoon. Rev. Dr. Ralston, the C n! I‘resident of Oakland Female Col- . delivered a powerful discourse in tho Lutheran Church. The writer hail the pleasure of visiting several of the Habhath-schools also, and was struck with the excellent system of instruction in op eration. At night the Presbyterian pul pit (the pastor not officiating) was filled by a stranger. Just as he commenced his sermon, something happened to the gas, and it began to blink and wink at inch a rate that totaldarknoss seemed inevitable. The preacher drily remarked that os his whole discoureo would be about tho den’/, lie supposed his satanic majesty was at the bottom of tho trouble. Undaunted, he continued, however, and gave “ Old Harry ” fits, and hia congre gation, too. in the bargain. That man nude e deliverance on this occasion of all the theology he had over heard or read of. .Uni when every one thought he was door, by way of application he preached sermon number fire, with KIOUT DISTINCT HEADS or divisions. Besides this ho was foggy all through, and we could but think that it would require at least a million of such sermons to convert ono poor sinner. Surely God’s herald and reply -ontative in the sanctuary should make tho study of human nature his first duty, if be would hope to reach tho ears and hearts of his auditory. Norristown is a clean and beantifnl city of about 15,000 Inhabitants, and con tains many elegant residences and public buildings. It is located in the iron, coal and marblo region of Pennsylvania, and ia quite a manufacturing place. hack iv> FHILAnsLrariA. Monday morning. September 1st, at an early hour, found us again on board the ears of the Norristown and Reading Railroad, cn route for tho city of William lVnn. The rcvul for the whole distance (fifteen miles.) is constructed upon tho very lirink of the lovely and pellucid Schuylkill river. Trains leave every hour in tho day to and from Philadelphia, and the country is almost a continuous town. This is a great manufacturing centre Jusd Conshohoeken. Manyyunk and several other towns are noted for their mill*, foundries, etc. At Manyyunk are* immense paper mills from which the Inquirer and Ledger derive their sup plies. We saw about an acre of spa here covered with '■ OOXDID IOTLAK WOOD, which is manufactured into paper of ev ccllent quality. The Inquirer is printfe upon paper made cf this novel substance, which is destined, we trust, to work an important revolution in the oust of inoisjvtisable article.^ This will bo bac news to the rag gatherers of tho country.

Tho city is perfectly healthy, though still veiy quiet. Trade has revived considerably, however, within tho post week, especially in the wholesale dry goods business. Cotton is coming in freely, and the merchants are hopeful of a good business season. One sign, however, is far from favorable. We sUuile to the paucity of advertise ments in the newspapers of the city. This argues financial pressure or lack of enterprise. Perhaps both. Depend upon it; the condition of tho press is thu only true mercantile ther mometer in any community.* Stop adver tising and trade runs down to zero at once. When will onr dealers learn that doll times can only bo remedied by in creased enterprise, and more persistent efforts to get their business before the S ublic through tho medium of the press. time understand this, and invoking the aid of printer's ink are on the high road to fortune; while others languish because like tho tortoiso they draw their heads within their own shells and neither see, nor are seen of men. U. II. J. AVay “Down East.” Falhouth House, ) Portland, Me., September 4. ) Editors Telegraph and Messenger: Your correspondent arrivod here at 1 r. x. to day, and finds the thermometer about as low os wo in Macon have it in December. A brisk northeasterly wind and rain ren dered the temperature unpleasantly cool, and decidedly so to ono who was so thoughtless as to leave his overcoat and thicker clothing in New York. Fires have been comfortable to-day. As this individual was the third visitor from Georgia sinco 1860 the arrival of course created a ■' sensation.” Portland is a city of about 35,000 in. habitants, with quite large manufac turing interests and a good trade in al most _every department of business. It is also quite a fisli market, as wagon- loads of cod and mackerel may be seen at almost any time in the streets. Quite a chapter might bo written of the coast fishermen, who live entirely on the water except in the dead of winter. Tho ood, mackerel and herring are caught in largo quantities and put up in packages and shipped to all points in the States. The business of making fish oil is also large. Tho fish are caught in seines or nets and boated with steam, when they ore placed in a press and tho oil all ex tracted. Tho oil is sold to the tanners for leather, and the residue, consisting of flesh and hones, is sold for fertilizing pur poses, and has almost entirely taken the place of Peruvian guano. It yields or dinarily about six per cent, of ammonia. The life of ;; fisherman on this coast Certainly partakes of romance. Of the number who start out in the spring from 10 to 30 per cent, are always lost. This has been a disastrous year to them, as tho recent storm wrecked or otherwise de stroyed CO sail out of about 250. This section is dependent almost entirely on manufacturings. Tho country between Now York and Boston, and between Bos ton and Portland, seems to n passer-by to be poorer than any hills in Monrooconnty. Tiioir products consist of potatoes and grass, both of which are shipped south in largo IMHIn, ».«l ut low J.rl«u* to »»o consumer. Why cannot u o have our fac tories ? Massachusetts lias grown rich on its cotton and shoe factories. Why can not our people do tho same ? Hero the people are of the gcmiiuo “blue nose” kind, but I found them all kind and oblig ing. In my hnmhlo opinion our folks at homo could learn modi from their expe rience with lulur and especially with ser vants. If any of our friends should wish to como to Portland or to Boston, wo would adviso them to take one of Fisk's splendid boots, which leaves Now York cry afternoon at 5 o’clock and lands you in Boston early next morning. These boots are floating palaces—the finest of the kind afloat. A fast train from Boston will bring you to Portland by 12:30 r. it., whence you can go by the Grand Truck road to St. Johns, N. II., Montreal, and all points North and East. I heard of several of our Macon and Georgia friends in Boston. All seem to ho buying large stocks of goods for tho fall and winter trade, which fact will no doubt soon be made known through your advertising columns. H. M. F.

Fulton's hmi Letter in Baltimore Ameri can.] No slaughter-house is allowed within tho precincts of Paris, and oven live poul try is not permitted within tho city lim its. Everything brought to market must be dead; hence the people are not annoyed by droves of cattle, sheep, and hogs, ns we of Baltimore ore. nor ore there any foul smells from slaughter-houses. There are no general meat-markets in Paris, all meat being sold from stores, which are scatter ed all over the city. The butcher’s stores are among the most attractive establish ments in the city, and many of them are fitted up with great elegance, regardless of cost. There is one on tho corner of Boulevard Haussmann and Rne Auber which fronts about sixty feet on each street, and is a most bountiful sight, or namented with fountains and flowers, and oven the walls, as well as the tables, of pure, white marble. There is probably no store of any kind in tho city whieh has been fitted up in so costly a manner as this establishment, nor which pre- s *nt s a more elegant appearance from tbs street. The salesman are all arrayed in pure white, and a clerk sits behind ii very ornamental desk to receive the money from the purchasers. All kinds of meat are for hale here—beef, pork, lamb and mut ton, and are all dressed and arrayed in the most attractive manner, the legs of mutton being done np like bouquets, in re paper. The eight of this meat store calculated to sharpen a man's appetite everything being sweet and dean about The smaller stores are all fitted up the same style, and during the warm weather have handsome curtains hung in front to keep ont the files. There are poultry markets, where vegetable* are also sold, but no meat markets in any part of the city. He meat is required be brought into the shops from the ‘ abattoirs before 4 o’clock in the morning, i and the men engaged in lrillinw are not allowed to appear u the streets of Paris in tho clothes they wear at the abattoirs. These stooes sell nothing bat meat, nnd are carried on by the batchers, instead of market stalls. The abattoirs of Paris are located in the snbnrh* of the city, the buildings of which cover sixty-seven acres of land, near the fortifications between the Canals ,le l’Ourcy and St. Dennis. Tho slaugh tering of cattle of all descriptions is re quired by law to be dene here, the aver age pi r week being two thousand beeves, eight hundred cows, a thousand calves, and ten thousand sheep. There are, also, good number of horses slaughtered, their meat being sold to the poor, it hav ing been found during the siege to be luite palatable. lVornont horse* are fat tened and sold to the batchers, the sup ply from the carriage and omnibus stalls ing very extensive. The principal entrance to these exten- re slaughter-houses is by tho Rue de Flandre. It is inclosed by an elegant railing, with eleven gates of entrance ixit, and its numerous buildings give i appearance of an inclosed town. > are now sixty-fo..:' pavilions :-i ae- pe ration, some of which are re-erved I to or stalls, in which the cattle awaiting .. icir doom ass kept.
