THE PRESS CONVENTION.
SOUTHERN GEO HO IA —THE WORLD’S
EXPOSITION —A COUNTRY
RUMORS R..MBLES.
The annual session of tie Geor
gia Press Association, assembled
this yew, in the city of Bain
bridge. The prospect of visiting
that delightful see* ion of ihe
State, and winding up with an ex
cursion to New Orleans, which
had been arranged by Preddent
Estill, served to bring out a very
full a tendance of the knights of
the (juiil.
In these days of fast trains it
requires builittle time <o speed
across the State. The old lumber
ing trains of a decade ago, has giv
en place to tLe lightning express.
Leaving Adanta about 4 am.,
we skim along through Middle
Georgia like a bird, with little op
portnni/y to see the country along
the line, arriving in Macon for
breakfast, with omy time to got a
cup of coffee and change c irs, our
party was increased to about fif
ty, take in the seem ry along the
Southwestern. Albany was our
first stopping place. .In enter
tainment here was not on the pro
gramme, but our genial and en
terprising brethren, Opt We,ton
and Henry Mclntosh, determined
that the Press should no, pass the
Artesian City On the
arrival of the train, the en ire par. j
ty were provided with carriages
and driven through tLe principal
■nee's and to every place of inter
est. Among the many interesting
objects to the tourist, are h er sev- ■
en artesian wells, from which
brigk( sparkling water, as pure us
our mountain springs, pour - n a
continuous stream.
No scientific discovery iu this
century, has produced more bens
etieient results than the fact, that
beneath ihe stagnant ponds, that
bred disease and death, way down
in the bowels of the earth, there
were hiddeD streams of healths
giving water That these con'd
be tapped by Artesian wells, anu
the water brought to the surface
in a bold stream, while the stag
nant ponds could be drained off in
the same war.
Albany is situated on the banks
of the Flint river, and ie the fi
nest cotton produciug section of
the State. The only draw-back
to her prosperity has be«n, tha
jt was unaeultby. Chills, fever
and all that class of diseases, that
spring from a vitiated atmosphere
and impure water, were prolific
here. Even those to the manor
born, were wont to seek higher
latitudes during the summer and
fall. But with pure artesian wa
ter, the change has been womb r
ful. Albany is now a health res
sort, where invalids congregate to
drink sulphur and iron water
This has given the town a boom,
and her beautiful streets, elegant
residences and massive business
houses give evidence of prosperb
ty.
We are undef obligations to our
friend, Eil Wnghl, formerly of
Lawrenceville, who took us spe
cially in charge during our s ay.
He is a leidiug warehouseman,aud
is rapidly accumulating a fortune.
He has a handsome home aud
knows how to eutemin like u
prince.
But the Artesian City wus not
disposed lo speed the parting
guest with fine drives and good
water alone. An elegaut banquet
was served at her hotel, where at
1 oast two hundred guests enjoyed
her hospiiali'y. It was a red let
ter day for the city aud her guests.
A hop at tbe “Piney Wood’s
Hotel,” in Thomasville, was next
on the programme. Hero were
assembled tbe beauty and chivalry
of the city, aud her visitors from
the North and West, and until a
late hour they tripped the light
fantastic ( oe. No town in the
State has as many winter visitors
ft s Thomasville. Aud it is a de
lightful place, growing rapid/y,
and her citizens think ii will some
day be as large as Atlauta, ai least
one would judge so, from ihe
prices of real 6818(9. A short run
carries us into the ancient town of
Banbridge, With iis advantages,
of tail road and river navigation! 1
this town ought to be the most
prosperous in South-west Georgii
but her neighbors have distanced i
her iu ihe race. And the town,
although doing a good business
with excellent facilities, does not 1
appear to have kept pace with Al
bany, The mas ville and Valdosta.
Lands are cheap and the coun'y)
offers inducements for emigrants
who warn to live cheap. 7’he
stieams and fores's furnish lus
meat, and with a few acres in po
tatoeb, goobers and cotton, be can
lit* with ease and comfort.
Here the Association disposed
of i(s busir.e.ss, re-clewed its old
ollieiers, who have served so faith
fully and accep’ably, deposed of
an elegant banquet provided bv
the liberal citizens and boarded
the train for New Orleans, via.
Pensacola. At Cuattahoocbee we
leave Georgia and enter West
Florida This was onr first visit
to this section and we felt some
interest in getting a good look at
the couutry, Bu twe are sorry to
say that it furnishes few attrac
tions to the tourisf. Lone'y stretch
es of pine baren meet the gaze on
eveiy side. The land ,e so poor
that it is not attempted to be es
tivated and the natives expect to
make a living from tbe lumber and
turpentine business. This will
ulay out in a few years and unless
something can be found that wil l
grow without soil, the country will
have to rely on Oranges It has
an advantage. Wearing app.uel
need not be expetive. A straw bat,
duster and palm leaf can will furn
ish an outfit for nine months in
the year. Every thing seems to
be drawfed. The imber is scrub
by, the cattle are so thin that it
looks hke it would require a rock
tied to t hen tails to balance their
horns.
Here and there are beautiful lakes
au ) the most charming one we saw
was Lake De Funiak. This is the
southern Chatauqna and is a love
ly place with fine hotels, elegant
grounds and every convenience for
be great camp meetings to be held
here each winter. It is intended
to be for the winter what its cele
brated namesake is in the snmmer
and will doubtless be a delightful
place, below the frost lines and ad
inirably situated for close commu
nication with she outer world and
especially the North West.
Pensacola, sings out tbe brake
man, as our train rolls intc this
beautiful gulf city.Evervlhing here
has a tropical appearance. The
I eautiful flowery yards,airy build
ings, sandy streets, wnile in tbe
bay Boats lazily vessels of all sizes
shapes and discretions. For a
winter home this iscertainly a par
adise, with its soft breezes, oran
ge groves ard tropical fruits and
fl nvers- Au immense lumber and
itirpintine business is done at this
port aud the c ; ty appears to be
flourishing
And now for New Orleans. Tbe
greu Southern enterport. To an
up country man. the run along the
gulf coast is lacking in interest,
pine barrens, swamps, lakes, rivers
aid prararies, soon loose their at
t>action. There is no variety in
the scenery snd the mind tires of
the sameness and want of variety.
Wf were due in New Orleans
at 7 o'clock but didr’t arrive un
til midnight I do not know when
the people of tne cily sleep. Even
at that late hour, tne streets were
thronged with pedestrians, who
seemed utterly oblivious to the faci
that night was intended for rest
and sleep, We found quarters in
tne sky loft of the city hotel
where each man had a stall, with a
pillow to two beds. But it wa9
too late to swap horses and we
concluded to settle down for a lit.
tie sleep, when one of the party
cruelly inquired what we would
do if the hotel got on fire? We
could not find our way down the
wiudiug h ills and stairways, aud
looking out the winnow it was (oo
far to jump. Dr. Grey proposed
to set up and watch but before the
party got to sleep he quietly turn
ed in.
Our first nights experience was
not encouraging but after travel
ing 800 miles to get thero we
were bennd to go through, if we
had to io. at on a fence. But “all
is well that ends well.”
We forgot our troubles nex(
morning when we boarded an eli
gunt boat for the Exposition.
Tbe refreshing breeze, soft music
by the baud, vessels of all nations
that idly floated at tbe wharf, or
ploughed the mngestic stream, the
great city with its three hundred
thousand people in full view, pre
sented a panorama so bewitching
that we felt like we had suddenly
emerged into a new world. It is
about six miles te the Exposition
but the scenery along the route is
so interesting to a landman that it
seemed but a few minutes until the
i grounds were reached.
Glancing at the immense park
from the boat, our eye catche 8
first the immense building with its
towers aud flags, covering thirty
(liree acres of giour.d, the govern
ment building as large as the main
building of the Atlanta Exposi
tion, the Mexican building, Art
gallery. Agricultural hall, experi
mental ganleLs, and groves ot
orange, palm, letuou etc. The
ground are handsomely 1 lid oft
with j reviled walks, gre*n sward,
tropical flowers and a thousand
ornaments that we kuve neither
space or language to describe.
Entering the main building, we
stand amazed at its vast propo
sions and wonderful disp'ay. It
presents a perfect labvrinth of
machinery, with great driving
wheels and im nensd e git ee, here
is a OLineeso booth and there ex
hibits for Central America, Japan
and other foreign countries and
nearly everything that one could
iminagine and a thousand that he
never dreamed of Pass into the
galleries and the scene be!«w pre*
sente the grandest view of exhib
its ever congregated in this coun
try It is properly named the
World’s Industrial Exposition.
Here is an immense artificial wa’er
fall, there a display of farming pro
ducts, one the next staiid laden
fancy works and so on until we
get fabgued at seeing something
| new and stroll out to get a breath
■ of fresh air
But when we have finished tbe
grand hall, if anybody ever finishes
it, the government building pre
sents as many attiactions. Here
is the display of Sates, products
Jof the field, the mines, woods,
! curiosities from the Smithsonian
1 Institute, relics of the Greely re
| lief expedition to tbe North Pole,
| marble and naval stores, all of the
improvements in t.Le implement
i of war, the life saving service, etc.
All of the Western States have
1 magnificent displays, aud the
Southern States passably good,
except Georgia. We were asham
ed of what Georgia has done,
wbeu wo know what she could do,
Each state has its day, and the
24th was set apart as Georgia’s
day. Our display of gentlemen
and ladies was far better than of
the resources of the Sta(j. The
Governor and staff, acsjmpanied
ay four companies of volunteers
wert there, and about ono hun
dred members of the press, It
was estimated that at least one
thousand Georgians took part in
the i xercises. A welcome address
was delivered by Marshal Pitken,
which was responded o by Sena*
tor Davidson, ot Augusta, the
Mexican band enlivened the oc
casion with splendid music, there
was a general handshaking, fol
lowed by a reception by Uov
Mi Daniel, and the Georgia
display ended.
We spent a day or two it* the
city, There is as much that is
novel here as in the Exposition.
The French market is one of the
best known aitrac ion i of the city.
Here you can buy anyihing from a
too h pick to a su.t of clothes.
It is a perfect babel, for the ming
ling of different tongues serves to
confusion. Here is the Mexiban,
Italian, French, German, Crao'e,
Indian, negro, Jew, Gentile, Cow
boy and Turk mingling in a con
fused mass of tiaders aDd sight
seers. Wa visited the old French
port of the city but was not favoi
bly impressed with it. We were
strangers in our own lan 1: Every
body speaks French, even the chil
dren and negroes and the popula
t oi is as mixed in color as it is in
language
New Orleans is a wicked town.
The gambling hells are open day
uight and are licensed by ihe city,
pr’ze fights, horse races, variety
shows and drinking saloons find
.Sunday their most profitable
day. Here is an ancient Ca
thedral whose mellow chimes ring
out upon the morning air. The
next door is a faro bank on one
side and a beer jerking establish
ment on the other and the great
crowd float along “some to the
bridal and some to the tomb.’’
The reduced rates in rail
road fare has greatly increased the
crowd wl ich averages about 10,-
000 per day on the grounds but
still nobody crowded.
Is the Exposition a success ?it
is, most unquestionably. 6>ood
judges say that it excels the (Jens
tenial. But it will hardly be prof
habie as an investmeut. It will
demonstrate to the world the
wonderful resources of this coun
hj aud bring capital, enterprise
aud (rift to the slates who have
utillized its advantages.
