NmtlU Hill Arp”) and his Speech.
J) rr Ttitettiffcncrr: On our return to Rome,
v» ilore we arrived on Huoday morning, August
V:t ii, we lotiiid that whole-souled people ready,
a» before, to entertain us with unabated zeal and
hovilality. As I reserve particular mention of
Rome, her so r roan ding a, advantages, present
condition and future proaiiects, for my closing
letter, I will only remark Inal after a tiabbatb
most agreeably spent in the '‘seven-hilled city, 1
the parly accepted the invitation of Captain E.
(i. ilarui y, the very able, go-ahead and courte
ous Superintendent of the Selma, Rome and
Dalton Railway, to take a trip down that road
and a look at its minerals. So on Monday morn
ing, alter a “Choice” breakfast, carriages were
placed at the disposal of such as wished to con
vey them to the train, which lelt the depot about
!i o'clock.
Arriving at Cave Spring, 10 miles from
Ihune, the train stopped about three-fourths of
an hour to atlord the party an opportunity of
visiting this great natural curiosity, the village,
and the Georgia Asylum for the Deal and Dumb,
located there
An exceedingly bold spring of the clearest
water Hows from the base of Jligh Hill—prob
ably 200 feel or more in height. The stream it
forms Hows over a rocky bed, making almost a
creek. Climbing a sleep declivity a bun
dled yards, perhaps, 1 iouud my sell at the mouth
of the “ Cave," where the town Marshal, Mr.
Strickland, s<xin made ms appearance with a
lamp, and under hi* guidance the parly com
menced lla dcnCeul and exploration. The de
scent was quite abrupt, precipitous, and in some
nlac<*i dangerous, but “ Hie b-taation" was de-
CtUetlly luunoniiug and ui.-trueti ve.. Annul one
hundred feet downwards, probably traveling one
hundred am! fitly, we reached the bottom, and
then proceeded through a low and narrow pas-
.,age, with jagged lofre anti side.-,, to a rtmiji or
gallery—a hundred ieel to tne lelt. The entire
UeSC*‘ut aH< 1 eXplt i ratio a Were well Calculated to
nibpire one with feelings oi wonder, aJtniraUon
and a we. Retracing our steps to the main pass-
Way, We tlenceuded to where the Sj'ring, bub
bling trooi the earth, fliat appears, From this
basin the water made its own tunnel under the
i artli, to w here it issues from the base of the hill
already mentioned, a distance of somewhere
about two hundred leet. The Spriug, the Cave,
and all concerning them are wonderiul to con
template.
i iu- Asylum building was next visited, hut the
Superintend lit was absent on account of family
iillliclioii, and most ol the inmates were away,
so that but little could be learned. The build
ing was large, airy and commodious, but is not
ol sufllcient capacity for the beneficent object
tin-State basin view, and is in bad repair.—
There are about pixty inmates of the Asylum,
aiMuit twenty-six of whom are employed in
shoe-making, principally. We think some oi
the Statc’e money could bo used benevolently
nml to great advantage at this institution.
The site is a delightful one for the purpose
used, as well as fur a thriving and beautiful
town—the romantic and theusclul are most hap
pily blended. 1 was informed that its incor
porated limits wete three tourtha of a mile from
the center, und that the population was about
one thousand. The Cave Spring village and
buildings arc about halt or Three-lourths of a
mile lroui the railway, aud the character of the
store and residence houses indicate considerable
business and thrift.
A few miles below Cave Spring, in Polk
county near the lino of Floyd, the train was
stopped, and the parly invited to visit a bill in
sight, not over one hundred yards distant from
the track to look at some iron ore. On reach
ing the hillside, we found it completely covered
with ore of the richest quality—estimated at 80
or 85 per cent, of metal; there was apparently
enough on the surface to supply furnaces of a
daily capacity of 25 Urns for years, and the de-
posite extends lor miles. Here was additional
proof of the almost illimitable treasures at our
command, iu this one mineral, waiting only la
bor and capital, to be worked into the commerce
and service ol the world.
The party resuming their seats, the train again
moved onward. There were no other stops
made, excepting for wood and water, no further
delays until we reached Patoua, where a sump
tuous entertaiumont awaited the excursion, pro
vided by Superintendent Bahnky, who is as
whole-souled aud generous, as he is wide-awake,
energetic and able as an officer, aud this is paying
him a high, but merited compliment. The party
was soon seated, aud they did ample justice to
the “matter” set before them ; the “takes” were
all large and there was no grumbling. All par
took with a keen relish, aud uoue enjoyed the
pleasure which ruled the hour more than onr
genial host.
Many toasts were drank, aud several made a
lew remarks. Col. Huuiebt was called for,
hut, as usual, made a flank movement, and
brought some one else to the front. Capt.
Barney was toasted aud called lor, but mod-
ostlv declined, saying :
“Gentlemen, 1 am no talkest, and you must
excuse me. Vet 1 have a speech here two fiun~
dred miles Umrj, (tbe present length of his road,)
which you will oblige me by re[>orting 1”
This “brought doom the house,” but brought
Col. Halbert to lus feet, who lacing Capt. Bar
ney remarked ;
“Gentlemen, another “Sharp and Quick,"
which was followed by hearty cheers.
Finally somebody proposed as a toast—
“Romr !"
Which was promptly and enthusiastically re
sponded to by all present A geueral aud very
flattering call was made for Col. Smith. (Bill
Arp.) the popular Ex-Mayor and humorist, who
dually arose, and answered the call in the elo
quent, though Uriel ie-marks, which follow, full,
as will be observed, of practical sense, refined,
genial hum<u , and true poetic pathos.
COL. SMITH SAID :
Gentlemen of the Press, and you, Ir\>n Men
Rome tel ls justly proud of the honor you
h ive done her, not only by your compliments,
but by your presence.
The friendly visit ol a neighbor expands the
heart towards him—and so the heirt of Romo
went out t > meet you, aud give you a cordial
reception. (Cheers) It seemed to be tile plains
of Georgia visiting her mountains ; and it docs
not take much taney to imagine our hills wag'
ging their high tops, and our rivers dashiDg
brighter over their shoaly l>eds to give note ol
joyous welcome to our illustrious guests. (Cheers.)
But we Romans had that there is much more
significance in tics visit than a neighborly call.
We look upon your excursion as a union of the
strongest, menus! with the strongest physical
power in the world—a union as it were oi
Brains wiUi Ikon 1 An amalgamation that at
once provokes our lear and our respect. We
its- iu an age ol /■rtyrrw—that ts to say, an ag.
Iron. Time would tail rue to recount how
ull-poivading is this metal. It has insinuated
itselt into every department ot Science and Art,
and now has attacked and carried the very in-
treuchmeuls of the Press itself. Four score edi
tors have l»een taken with iron on the brain 1
(Cheers.) Our luihera and forefathers (we drop
a tear to their memory) used the gray goose
quill, and it kept the world passive, easy and
sluggish. The wants of increasing numbers
demanded more life—more energy. How to gel
it was the vexed question until Josktu Giiaott
invented the steel pen. That teas the union of
iron, (applause) end the thought* of
t.iifv.rl is li,-c-tm« p ii.ud and vigorous, and
t :e < - J i:. is have * ver since been uble to set the
woikl on tire. Even some who arc uot editors
have become “6haju> ami> Quick 1” tad all this
has been brought about by this tempering brain
with iron!
We are exceedingly gratified, gentlemen, to
have you among us. The mind is in aucli close
sympathy with the body that we know it will
prove improving for you to breathe nur moun
tain air; to float on our restless waters; to look
upon these heights that everywhere around us
are like nature’s spires pointing us from nature
up to nature’s God! We admit that we are
proud of our mountains. Ihey art our templet
and our shrines—the silent monitors ot the way
that we should go. On their rugged sides our
young men are hardened for the toils of life; at
their bases flow our bright and happy rivers,
upon whose bosom our daughters love “to pad
die the light canoe.” We would not say with
Byron—
“The mountains look on Matalhon,
And Marathon looks upon the w*.”
But rather—
The mountain* look on Rome,
And Rome on her bright waters;
On one we rear onr sons.
The other bear* onr daughters.
[Prolonged applause.]
But, gentlemen, to leave the Itom(e)autic—in
which 1 confess we Romans love to deal—1 will
say in all seriousness that ouit mountains are
ock wealth. Galileo—or Virgil—or lricnd
Gaskill, (“ or any other man,”) once said
Mow parturient el nascitur ridiculus mus." tWe
have no such “ ridiculus” mountains with us-
They gets into no such “ mas." By no means,
gentlemen ; but when our mount-tins labor they
bring forth not mice, hut pigs—iron pigs—forty
at a litter, and four litters a day ! You witnessed
it at Cornwall; and you know that, considering
the side bars which my Lricnd Noble calls sows,
we well might correct Mr. Galileo, or Mr. Vir
gil, aud »ay : “ Mous parturient et nruscitur pon-
derosux xux." So, gentlemen, you see our bacon
is bora by the cay, not slopping for Sunday;
and it we don’t have ii iu our smoke-houses, we
have it near by in our mountains. All that i&
wanted is a Noble, or a Cothran, or a Cooper,
or even amateur Hulbeht to play accouchiers.
In conclusion, gentlemen, we cordially wel
come you to our mountains aud villages. There
is room for all. Ye», for even eighty editors !
with their eighty papers!! This is all that is
wanted to make modern Rome, like her old
namesake, “ the mistress ot the world.”
There was but little said or done alter this,
and the excursionists soon alter reseated them
selves in the cars, highly gratified, carrying with
them pleasant recollections ot the event., aud
leaving behind them hearty good wishes for the
success of the Selma A Rome Railroad, and the
welfare and prosperity of its Superintendent
J. S. P.
The Air Glue Kail road.
Wc are pleased to learn that the grading of
the first twenty miles ol this great enterprise
will very soon be completed. From the Chief
Engineer’s estimate, a copy ol which has been
exhibited to us, we learn that the cost for the
construction of these first twenty miles of the
Road, will be $327 400, the available means, tor
the same, of the Company being $””0,050. This
is a good exhibit, aud gives flattering assurance
that the work will surely aud steadily progress
till it makes that connection in South Carolina
which will ensure an air line road from Atlanta
to New York, an enterprise that will be produc
tive of the most prosperous results to our city,
aud of inestimable value to tho traveling public,
North and South.
The Stockholders will notice in our adverti
sing columns that a call for instalments is made
upon them, to which they will doubLlcss respond
in due time. Never before in the history of this
great enterprise were its prospects more flatter
ing than at the present time, and if the stock
holders in it know their own interests, they will
promptly respond to the call made upon them.
