The following short loiter from the Hon
J. 11. Jajfnt s.published in the Sunny South,
is tle best we have seen on that side cf
the question. —(’on Ed. Bi:i.
Xu the Tax payers and Voters ol G or
gia: I write you a short letter on the cap
ital question. Now, dou’t look on me as
nn inti rested party, because I live in and
own property in Atlanta. I tell you, in
the beginning, that the removal of the
capital from A-Lmta will ut>t Je felt by
her property holders. She is upward and
onward, ami no sin 11 thiufi liL* Hunt will
lifted her. I t 11 y w further, tins election
is not Atlanta or Milledgeville; it is Mill
dgevi l- -tid vurs If. Taxpayer, when
yon veto for Milledgeviile you vote against
yourself. My reason for saying this is,
you have n< ,v the capital in Atlanta ; you
!mv! h. re pubne buildings snitable lor
every purjxujc, suflhrent to do this gener
ation, Hiid to spare, as some of the public
property here is rented out —not needed.
When 1 say this, I mean what I say.
Take this home to yourselves ard say, if
you were v.Il fixed for life in the way of
improvements, would you move? Now,
in addition to ample buildings, the city
of Atlanta propose* to build anew State
house. You may say, why d.jes she do
this it the removal will not nttect her ? J
reply, it is her citizens’ pride to keep the
capital here. Fulton county pays more
State taxes than any ether county in the
State, and this is another re tson she
abend have the few small crumbs that
may fall from the capital’s being here.
Atlanta will comply when called on, and
build anew' capitol. If she don’t, two
thirds of any legislature and a majority I
vote ol the jieopleeaiHind will take it from
her. When she does build a new capita*, j
the legislature can sell the present build
ings and put the motley in the State treas
ury, As I have said before, the question
is. shall 1 vote for Miiledgeviile, or lower
tax h ?
f don’t understand why other cities can
be against Atlanta If Atlanta grows
great, flic State an<f every town and city
itj the Hiate will gain by it.
Then let us come up as one man, and
n t give Atlanta a small majority, but let ;
uh give her such a vote as will lor *ver set

THE Kr.ltU-TUttKMH WAR.
The capture of Kaiv by the Russians
was a Sequence of the decisive battle of
Mount Aladja. Turkey, pressed to des
i peration in Bulgarin, could offer no help
ing hand to Muektar lifter the ill-tated
( Imtth* of Aladja. In the East the fall of
! Hr-am in is ii e.’ituble. It must follow the
| downfall of Kars. liatonm and Stamboul
1 must sueeuiub after the surrender of Er
/eron.m. This will leave the whole of
Armenia-to the conquering ltussians, who
can easily subsist their army on the fertile
1 plains of Asia Minor, in their approach to
Stamboul. Indeed, this plan is already
e.internplated by Genl.*Melikoti.
In Bulgaria the central point of interest
is Plevna. Tin Bussians have occupied
! every available approach to that fortress*
and are hurrying up reinforcements in
order to force the surrender of the be
leaguer, and Turks. The fall of Plevna will
fore • the abandonment of the line of the
Danube, although Widd.n, Bustcliuk
and Silistria hold out against the Bus
mans. In short, the fall of Plevna will
terminate the war; and when this result is
accomplished the fall of Islauiism should
he demand'd by united Europe. Civiliza
tion and humanity have wrongs to be
righbd in the final readjustment of the
' status of the Ottoman pow.r in Europe.

The late report of the President, (’ol.
Wm. M. Wad ley, is of interest, and we
take pleasure in condensing from the
same a few statements of value to the pub
lic and some important statistical infor
mation. President Wadlev estimates tin
loss to Savannah.by the epidemic,at SJOO

gust. amounts to S_\ 50. Expenses

It appears there has been a decrease
from various causes, in business on all
the roads and bank, except tho South
western, the operaionsof which show' an
increase of $85,871138. Expenses h<.’ e
increase and on some branches and decreased
IV to
There is a marked
on the Atlanta division, (rood jirovision
crops in Georgia and falling off in ship
ments of provisions from the West, with
the loss on the Central from the fever in
Savannah, are assigned as causes. Along
the S. W. li. K. crops arc reported better
than for years, and hence increase in bus- 1
iness.
Heavy losses by fires and other sources •
justifiable causes for the decline.
The steamship linos are in a prosperous
condition, with two large new ships in
course of construction. Some allusion is
made to tlic resignation of (’ol. Powers
and his acceptance of the position ns Com
missioner of the Southern Railway and
Steamship do., with appropriate remarks
by the President.
Col. Wudley strikes the key note in the
following paragraph to the great difficul
ty, that underlies, unavoidably, all com
plicated business that invests railroads in
this country:
The problem of so managing railways
;is to be perfectly just to tlicir owners, and
at the same time equally so to tile public,
has thus far baffled the best minds of the
country, and it can hardly be hoped that
we shall reach the desired end at first
trial, but to make any approach we must
lay aside all prejudice and passion, which
it is feared has heretofore been present in
the discussion of this subject.
In this connection'* we desire to ask,
believing as an act of justice we owe the ,
able management- of the Southwestern
railroad Company’s business to the in
dustrious efforts and grent ability ol its
present admirable officer, ('apt. W. G.
ltaoul, the earnest support and co-opera
tion of our people. In ('apt. Raoul you
have the highest type of of a gentleman,
imbued with the strictest sens** of honor,
who in discharging his duties as an officer,
acts without favor or affection. Impartiali
ty and equal handed justice to all interests
and parties, is the highest aim and ol>-
, jeetof Capt. Raouls ambition. So we
believe, ainl believing, could not with
hold a just tribute to a man of such ster
ling worth of character.
Tm.o” a Love Stuay. - This is the
title of a charming story just published
by T. 13. Peterson A* Bros., of Philadel
phia. It is written by Mrs. Frances
Hodgson Burnett, in her most felicitous
style, and will not fail to command a
large class of readers. Of the many ex. '
eel lent stories written by Mrs. Burnett
••Tlico” deservedly ranks (in one of her
best.
While the author’s manner in dealing
with character is not new, it possesses
such power and natural vigor of portraiture
iis will at once fascinate the reader and
sustain the interest through the entire
plot. Few characters in modern fiction
arc at once so pure, so lovable, so natural
ns the impulsive, ardent notured “Theo.”
While the characterization is perfect,
“tender and true” to nature, the impul
s(*s j>ortrayed, the feelings expressed are
none the less profound and vividly real.
The talent of Mrs. Hodgson is dramatic,
rather than didactic. She has a story to
tell, and proceeds in the natural way of a I
“born story-teller." She is charming ini
her sweet womanliness, highly artistic in i
her insight of human nature, polished
and vigorous in her style. “No one can

ADAMS UK 11 Kir. THOM ASTON —
ALONO THE l(i 'AI).
We made a ph'asant jaunt last week
across the country to Barnesville, about
thirty-six miles distant.
Early in the morning, as the gray mist
cleared away, we started n our long ex
pected tour, and after ten miles on an
easy gait, we brought up on Adams’
bridge, and soon crossed into the eounty
of Epson.
On every side was an inexplicable con
fusion of hills. ‘Pelion piling on Ossa.' in
a most reckless manner. But these hills,
though almost perpendicular, arc produc
live, and Were still covered with the lleecy
striple, that against their cragged heights
to base below, resembled a drift of heavy
snow. Eight miles more brought us in
sight of Thoniaston. whose steeples
glistened in the sunlight.
We had not seen our sister town for
years, and were refreshed with its bright,
cheerful look of business: its numerous
posters of advertising cards on trees and
fences; its sterling and popular journal,
the Herald: its merchants, citizens and
railroad whistle, that made up a pleasant
picture. There are some splendid lots in
Tlionraston. beautiful gardens, orchards,
fields and < <*/.y, sunlit homes. One of
tlies* 1 lots was covered with Burmudu
grass, a heavy, thick sod, upon which
• attic, hogs and horses were leitmrely
grazing. Wc were informed by that ex
cellent and well-known citizen, Mr.
E hound Atwater, whose property we are
now describing, that in summer this pas
ture was most beautiful and luxuriant,
affording a most nutritious food for stock.
The road from here to Barnesville, six
teen miles, is nearly level, and one of the
finest drives in Georgia.
Along our entire route through Talbot,
Epson and Pike, we observed many fields
still white with cotton, not much, as yet,
being sown. The drought affected much
of I -,on severely, hut a fair yield will be
realized. The country is beautiful and in
a tine state of cultivation.
About the Bock, eight miles from
Thoniaston, we saw sonic fine crops and
farms. Capt. Stafford turned in fallow a
large field last summer, now in good con
dition for grain.
Four miles and a half from Barnesville
our friend Middlebrooks has complcteihii
most convenient and perfect steam gin,
turning out twelve to fifteen hales of cot
ton per day. He ground also, 1,500 gaE
, lon's of syrup and will soon place a corn
mill in position. Mr. M., has a field of
Kuta Bagas. in rows, that he cultivated,
now knee high, or over, which he feeds
to his stock. Dr. Lavendar, of this
county, raied 1,000 bushels of these tur
nips, per acre, and feeds almost all his
stock on them, instead of corn.
But we must liurrv on to Barnes’* , lie.
It is night and we are soon comfortably
seated iu Hunt's hotel, where we would
advise the public to stop. Tom Hunt is
a clever gentleman and will do all in his
power to make your stay with him agreea
ble.
To-day we have met many friends, and
none we shall remember with more grati
tude than Capt. McMichael, Capt. R. J.

prictor of the Gazette, a large v _ i

-1 lation” in the counties around, and its
I columns are deservedly well patronized.
Capt. Bob Powell, 'one of the most *
polished and elegant Christian gentlemen
in Georgia, is President of the bank,
which has dono so much for the planters
of old Pike since the war. Many a good
farmer lias been carried through stormy !
weather, critical financial periods, by the
liberal aid extented through the Barnes
ville bank. AVe are glad to state its con
dition is most excellent and it is doing a
very satisfactory business. Mr. Bloods
wortli is the Cashier of the bank.
(’ol. Friar is favorably known to every
body in old Talbot as a clever gentleman
and a square dealer in 4, it* best of horses
and mules.
Mr. Murphy is prominent as a mer
chant and citizen, and has the best ap
pointed livery stable we have seen.
(’apt. Cook is a representative man and
will go to the next Legislature, in our
opinion, as he deserves to wear the honor.

all adieu. J. B. G.
