7 THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTOR, NOVEMBER 22,1881. AT THE EXPOSITION. FACTS AND INCIDENTS OF THE DAY NOTED. Another Fino D??y and Large Crowd???The Cheap Bail, road Baloa Having Effect-Tho Beautiful Dis play Ot tho State of Florida-Eventa of the Day on the Grounds. ???The bet Monday we liavc ever had,??? was the general comment of the exposition offi cers yesterday. There was a very large atten dance, bath of city and outside visitors, and the scene in the buildings at noon was a busy and encouraging one. The cheap rail- road fares are beginning to show re sults, and there is now no doubt in any quarter of the final success of the exposition. The stock of the company was bid for at forty cents by parties who wanted to speculate, and none for sale at less than par. Five hundred dollars of the stock were taken by New Orleans parties at par. I f the promises now visible hold out there may still, in the opinion of some of the man agers, be dividends on the profit side to de clare. There were several large and influential delegations from the east and north on the grounds during the day, and much interest was manifested by the manufacturers and capitalists, both in the cotton machinery and products and in the minerals and woods rep resenting the wealth of the southern country in those products. The pressure upon our advertising columns transfers in this issue notices of specific ex liibits to other columns. tinguished men to the stage. General Sherman in sisted on remaining in the audience. When the applause which followed the appear ance of the orator had subsided and the distin guished gentleman on the stage had been seated, Director-General Kimball arose and said: Ladies and Gentlemen: This is the occasion of the annual meeting of the Mexican veterans and they have done us the honor to call their meeting here. It is their meeting nud they will manage it in their own way. I have the honor to introduce to you General Walker. General Walker, of this city, then arose and said: Ladies and Gentlemen and Members of the Mex ican Veteran Association: For the lust five years we have had our meetings during fair week. This being the year of the exposition, we conferred with the gentlemen who controlled the exposition us to whut day would lie most suitable for us to meet here. Homo ten days ago they designated the 15th and gave us the privilege of having this hall. Of course the mcmtcrshlp of the association must be very small in point of numbers, but I trust and hope that the sentiment and remembrance wefhave for the achievements of the armies of the United ???States, which acquired such vast and rich territories, will be larger far than this poor remembrance. [Applause.] I have letters of declination from General Beauregard, General Grant, General Bon ham, General Joseph E. Johnston and many others. It will need to read those letters to tell you who were the leaders in our late war. I had hoped and believed that General Joseph E. Johnston would be present. 1 know that he would be glad to be present, but im perative duties in Richmond prevented his accept ance of the invitation to be present, and I know it would have given him pleasure to meet General Sherman. They wonld meet, not at the sword???s point but as men who propose a g aerous rivalry as to who could most advance the prosperity of the' stutc of Georgia. I have the honor gentlemen to in troduce to you ns our orator. General Henry R. Jackson, of Savannah. To the people of Georgia, he needs no introduction, but ns there are many strangers here, I will simply say that he has tilled many high positions in the state and federal gov ernment, both civil and military, and mi each one he carried business with such a high and commenda ble bearing that the people of Georgia are proud to claim him as one of their sons. At the conclusion of General Walker's re marks, General Jackson arose and began speaking. He said that he knew from the character of the audience before him, a The Western and Atlantic Railroad representative audience from all sections of Has one of the finest exhibits on the grounds. It is j country, the nature of the duty which had been placed in the railroad building near the Kansas I designed for him. He must strive to win their than astonished at the extent and com pleteness of the exposition, and agreed with bis stall that it far surpassed popular expecta tion. During the walk about the grounds he and General Poe went back of the Florida building and with Kennesaw mountain as the base, laid out the scenes of the battles they had fought together around Atlanta. ??? General Poe oc cupied the residence oi Governor Brown as his headquarters during the occupation of Atlanta by the federal troops, and ou yesterday when Mr. Kimball reminded Governor Brovfn of this fact General Poe stopped him, saying tha cotton planting section, and average two or three to | the county: Dear Sir: In order that our people throughout the I south may derive the greatest benefit from the At- i lanta cotton exposition, it is desirable that as manv of them should personally visit it as posiible. With this end in view, we have joined our influence with that of the exposition authorities, and induced | nearly all the railroads to reduce their fares to the l minimum rate of only one cent ner mile.

Anld Lang Sync. One of the most prominent features in the J. & P. Coats exhibit is an old time spinning wheel, sent to I them from the northern part of the state, and whieh is said to be over a hundred years old. It is mount ed prominently on a stand in the center of their exhibit, and as we look from that to the fast whirl ing spooling machinery attended to by eight spright ly New England lasses, we are forcibly reminded of the vast improvements which have been made in machinery during the last one hundred years. When this machine was made the J. & P.

He answered: "We are doing gloriously just now. We are re ceiving car loads of goods every day and Florida is about ready for the people to come in and see her.??? ???What have you arranged into position that is particularly interesting???? ???We have some large clusters of dates that are ripening every day. They would prove an interesting sight to most people. Then we have a banana tree here that i?? bearing and the fruit is expected to ripen duriug the exposition; we have pine apples growing in various stages; we have guava plants and ripe fruit; we have coffee plants and twigs showing the coffee as it grows. These are from Florida. We have a quantity of limes and oranges grown in various parts of the state. One of the most attractive curiosities that we have is a variety of the century plant called the Agavo Sisa- lanna, from which the strongest known ropes are made. We have also some other fibrous plants of value, but this is the most interesting of the lot. There is one flower stalk that is twenty-three feet in height. ??? from which the bloom has dropped and the seed pods are still hanging to thp branches. The seeds are abor tive and nature has made a curious provision for this wonderful plant. About the seed pod is formed a small plant, and as soon as tills plant is formed it leaves the mother plant and dropping to the ground begins life on its own account. One of these plants, and some very rich iron ore, and also some rocks from the interior of Florida.??? ???Why, I thought you did not have such things in Florida???? ???But we do. A general impression prevails that there is nothing in Florida but water and aligators. The truth is we have some high lauds in that state that the people abroad know nothing about. Why, cen jig nei member the time that they did not use Coat???s spool I cotton. Health Nate*.

It is I ignorance? nothing more nor less than a small house built of stone whieh has the peculiarity of being so soft that it can beehipped out with a hatchet, but in a very short time it hardens and is perfectly durable. We have rice grown in the uplands or in the corn fields, which is equal to any in the South Carolina exhibit from the low lauds. We have enormous stalks of sugar cane, wheat, corn, sorghum, oats, potatoes, etc., that compare with that of any section. We have dwarf bananas over three feet in height, with fruit on them. We have marls, phosphates, artificial stand stone and a thousand other tilings. We have bags of cotton here superior to anything on the grounds outside of our building. When Colonel Barrows saw it he said that he would give forty-five centsa pound for it. I have a new rico machine here which I in vented after four years of study. It does so little damage to the rice that a ten-year old child can operate it. A farmer cau have a little ono standing in his smoke house, and hull his rice at leisure. Rice is much sweeter when it is freshly hulled than when it has been hulled for some time. The leading feature of the machine Is that it cleans the rice but leaves all the nutriment as the Chinese have it. It has been a matter of surprise that the Chinese can live on rice alone.

Yesterday was Mexican veterans??? day. and the as sociation held its meeting in Judges??? hall at the ex position grounds. The crowd was the largest that has been on the grounds since the opening of the exposition. At three o???clock Judges??? hall was filled with an eager audience to hear the address by Gen eral Jackson. Director-General Kimball conducted General Walker, General Jackson, and other dis- tour of the buildings, which occupied them until about half-past one. At that time they stopped at Mr. Kimball???s office and rested for awhile. A num ber of ladies and gentlemen paid their respects to General Sherman for the succeeding houv. At half past two in company with Governor Brown, Mr. Kimball, Mr. Ryckman and others, the party visited Jones???s restaurant and there had an elab orate lunch. At three o???clock they returned to the. Judges'hall and there attended the meeting of Mexican veterans and listened to the speech of General Jackson. The general and hli staff were invited to the banquet given by the cotton men of Atlanta to Mas sachusetts and South Carolina, at the Expo sition hotel last night, but was forced to decline the invitation as he hail already, accepted an invitation to occupy a private box at the opera house, and hear the Hem opera company in the Chimes of Normandy. General Sherman expressed himself as more with which it spoils if it be not removed. Florida is making great efforts to extend her rice culture, and experiments have been attended with remark able success. The great difficulty in the wuy of the utilization of the crop is the trouble of sending it to market or to mill, and tiie great loss attendant thereon.

Morehead, president oi the National cotton planters' association, has been in the city for & day or two. Colonel Morehead comes for the purpose of com pleting arrangements for the national convention of cotton planters, which has been called to meet in Atlanta December 6lh. He reports that there is the greatest interest felt in the convention all through the south, and that if proper arrangements are made thousands of leading plan ters will be in attendance. Mr. Wall, superintend ent of agriculture for Hisshfcippl, who ia also In the city, says that he has had hundreds of letters asking, for information and Tates, prices of board, pro gramme, etc. We learn from Colonel Morehead, who has been Indefatigable in working up the matter, that rates of one cent a mile will be put on sale from Louisville, Memphis, Little Rock, Galveston, -New Orleans, and several leading points in the southwest for this oonvention. The mtne rate* are established throughout Georgia, the Carolinas, Alabama and Florida. It is only necessary that this reduction of rates should be made public in an official statement from the di rector general of the exposition so that the farmers can understand exactly what they may expect. Colonel Morehead has issued an address 'in which he advises all planters to arrange the time of their departure according distance so as to arrive in Atlanta not later than Tuesday forenoon, December 6th. He has sent the following letter to the governor of every cotton state, and responses from most of them have been received. Delegates have been appoint ed from nearly every county through the entire MRS. LYDIA L PiHKHAM, OF LYHH, MASS., UNPRECEDENTED ATTRACTION. U OVER HALF A MILLION DISTRIBUTED.
