OUR ATHENS CORRESPONDENCE. The University of Georgia—Preparing for Commencement The Annual Orator* Hoot Parliament—A Chalybeate Spring— The New Route to the We.t—Crop Pro*- perm. rtrfraf New* Note*. Athens, June 14.—1 will commence with the University of Georgia. The young as you are doubtless aware, are very busy at this period preparing for their final examinations. The duty is a very laborious and arduous one, and would be readily shirked could they do so. The Sophomores spoke for places last week, and fifteen appointments were given. The young speakers displayed a vast amount of training and skill, which is doe to those most excellent gentle men, Dr. Speer and Prof. W. W. Lump kin. The junior speakers were also an nounced and general satisfaction seems to prevail. There were ten places, and to obtain one of these yon had to perfect g>#Bßelf in scholarship. This is the test. The Seniors, the dignified manly Seni ors, who soon will be thrown upon the poor charities of this world, to battle, for themselves have commenced their la bors and are brushing np for ye board of visitors who are to be sent here by ye Governor. The Seniors have stood two finals and will finish up in nearly three weeks, when many a soul will be made happy. Dr. Hell, the venerable and es teemed professor of Ethics, has a moot Par 1 i amen t com posed of members of the Senior class; they elect officers, but are under the surveillance of the Doctor. Mr. George D. Thomas of tliis place and son of Col. Stevens Thomas, is the pre siding officer and a better man could not be fenpd. It is simply marvelous to witness the amount of Parliamentary erudition the yonng man displays in such a short time for preparation. His decision* ore quick and rapid and never overruled by the Honse. He commands respect and esteem from all his associ ates. The young ladies of the city at tend en manse (sometimes) which lends grace and dignityto the assembly. After business is over, Dr. Mell makes his criticisms upon the proceedings. It is true the Doctor hada goodmany to make at the beginning, but since ye amateurs have become professionals, there is lit tle room left for criticism. Mineral Spring. The Hampton Chalybeate Spring which was discovered near the North Eastern Railroad within the last few days, is the all absorbing topic of con versation. It is said to have existed many many years ago, and this is only a revival. The water has been pronounced decidedly mineral. Professor White has analyzed it, and says it contains oxide of iron, sulphate of magnesia and a preponderance of lithia. It is really astonishing to see the vast concourse of people going, coming and at the spring. The writer was there on Saturday afternoon and supposes there must have been 500 people. The crowd is larger on Sundays for then the mechanics are resting from their labors. The excitement is iuteuse, and I hear tha water has produced some wonderful cures. Mr. Hampton, who owns the spring, contemplates erect ing a large platform near by for daucing purposes. He also expects to adorn and beautify the grounds. NorlheaMtern Railroad. This little road is fast approaching completion. The track layers are eleven miles from towD, busily engaged at their work. They lay on an average of three miles tier wi-ek. The engineer pro nounces that portion of the work which has been completed the best piece of work he ever saw. There are no regu lar trains running from Harmony Grove to Belton, as soma seem to think. The train goes to Belton only for iron and on railroad business. Work will soon commence on the depots, and ere long the mighty car will be thundering at our portals. • Crops. The crops in this section upon the whole are very good. The tillers of the soil are busily engaged at present harvest ing their small grain, which is very abun dant. The yield from oats will be tremen dous, but wheat is very sorry. Most all wheat in this neighborhood was serious ly affected by the rust ; the yield will not be more than one-third. Some iarmeis will not harvest their wheat at all owing to the weaval disaster. Corn is looking well and has improved won derfully in the last two or three weeks. In some placestthe stand is poor, but this is not a serious obstacle, because some farmers pleaj that tlie young corn helps the old and vice versa. I don’t kuow whether this is true. Cotton is encouraging but quite young. If no disaster overtakes it the yield will be very good. The clover crop this year is unprecedented, being very high and quite thick. The gathering was im mense. (General Notes. Bishop Geo. F. Pierce dedicated a new Methodist Church about four miles from town on the Jefferson river road last Sunday, called Bogg’s Chapel. The crowd was large and very orderly. .He preached a graud aud glorious sermon which aroused the peo ple from their lethargy. After the first sermon an intermission of three-quarters of an hour took place and then the Rev. Dr. Potter preached a powerful sermon. The congregation was well pleased aud dispersed feeliug more and moro their sins and remote ness from the Heavenly Father. The Bishop preached in town that evening, he talke l about atonement, and his de scription of death was peculiarly teach ing and pathetic The depression and stagnation in trade prevails here elsewhere. The merchants are gradu ally trying to abolish the credit system and return to the good old cash plan in order that they may stand on a broader aud firmer basis ...At present sorrow aud gloom prevail throughout the entire community, caused bv the death of Mrs. V. T. Adams, daughter of Col. Steyens Tliomas. To the tamily in their breave meut and sad affliction we extend onr sincere aud heartfelt sympathies Your paper is well greeted here and is couceded by many to be the best cam paign paper in the State.

TALIAFERRO TOPICS, Tke Crop*—A Cheerful Outlook—Hr. JW" |krns’ Health—Talifaerro for Johnson. [From an Occasional Correspond?* j. ] Ckawfordyiixk, Ga., June 15.— The crops in this oounty are promising, both as to size and condition. Roth cotton and eora have been well worked and will soon be ont of any great danger from grass. Up to this time we have had unusually favorable seasons for all farming operations, and all oar farmers have made the most of their time, and when crops come to be gathered we ex pect to make a good showing for Talia ferro. Just now it is feared that we are having too mnch rain for wheat and oats, and it would be a great calamity indeed if these crops should be materi ally injured by excessive wet weather. Our people have harvested a fair crop of wheat and are harvesting an abundant crop of oats. The general condition of things here is hopeful, because every one has been practicing economy, and the expenses of making the crops and of every branch of business have been greatly reduced. With an average crop we hope to have a little spare money, which we have not had heretofoie. The many friends of Jndge G. F. Bris tow will be glad to know that he has re turned from Hot Springs in fine spirits, after a ten weeks absence from home. Mr. Stephens continues to gain strength, and improve in health and hopefulness. As his sickness has been long and se vere, he does not expect to be sufficient ly strong to attend the present session of Congress. To see him now rolling about in his chair, and conversing with his numerous visitors, and compare his present condition with what it was three months ago, one is almost forced to think that some miracle has been employed for his recovery. We are glad to see thst the people of Richmond connty, in a real mass meet ing, have indirectly expressed their'de sire to have Governor Johnson nominat ed as a candidate for Governor. At the proper time the people of this county will manifest the t ame preference by an overwhelming majority. C. E. 8. LINCOLN COUNTY NOTES. Crop Prospects—Politics— Fatal Accident— Pishing Parties. f From an Occasional Correspondent.] Round Pond, Lincoln Cos., Ga., Jnne 14.—Sunday and Monday last we were visited by a splendid rain, which caused corn, cotton, etc., to pat on a fresh and vigorous appearance' and farmers a cheerful look. The rains have been very partial this season. With the exception of a few light showers, the rain this week was the first we have had since crops were planted. Corn and cotton is smaller for this season of the year than I have seen it for many years past. This, however, I think is attributable to the cool nights in May, which retarded its growth. Wheat and oat crops have been harvested, and are as fine as I ever saw them. Politics Are not agitating the public mind of this section much at present. I think Lincoln stands for Governor as follows: Herschel Y. Johnson, head and shoul ders above any other proposed candi date ; Colquitt, next; Hardeman, third, and James the tail end. Drowned. Four Carolina gents of the sable hue, while attempting to cross the Savannah river in a batteau, near Barksdale's Ferry, last Saturday, were thrown out accidentally and two of them drowned. Two votes less for some Radical candi date. Centennial Fibbing Party. The young folks of Lincoln are to have a Centennial fishing party at Dallas Ferry, on Savannah river, on the 24th instant. Yes, .ftnd Mr. Tatum will have the blanks of some, what you call ’em, to fill next Fall. However, we hope this will not prevent anyone from attending, and carrying a basket of “goodies,” as a basket dinner will be the order at noon. Ransy Sniffle. THE ACCIDENT ON THE AIRLINE. Full Description by Our Traveling Corres pondent. [Special Correspondence Chronicle and Sentinel ] Toocoa, June 15, 1876, —I arrived here at 10 o’clock this evening, on train No. 2 coming from Atlanta, Conductor F. M. Long in charge. This train is the only one which passed over the road to-day,, in consequence of the train coming from Charlotte being thrown from the track this morning at 10 o’clock, about five miles from this place. Prof. Holwick, who was at the wreck, has given your correspondent the following information: The accident was caused by a wash in the road to the depth of eighteen feet, and twenty-five feet wide. It had been washed out some time dur ing the night by the hard rain, which has been pouring down for tlie last four days and nights. The train at the time of the accident was running at the rate of about twenty miles an hour, and coming to this breach near a curve did not have time to stop before reaching it. On this break there was nothing but the irons. The engine and tender were thrown down into the cut and smashed to pieces. The engineer, Geo. Berry, was taken up and carried to a house, where he is well oared for. The two firemeD, colored men, were carefully brought to town. It was thought best not to move Mr. Berry. All the passen gers were’brought to town and cared for by Mr. and Mrs. Davenport, aud others. Since Writing I am just informed that Charles Pollard died from his injuries. He is the first man-that was ever killed ou the Air Line Railroad. It is one of the safest roads South. Your traveling correspondent had the pleasure of rid ing with Capt. F. M. Long on his first trip on thq fast 3cheduce, eleven hours, which is now the time for rnnniDg 266 miles on the Air Line. The latest from the wreck, 1 o’clock a. m., June 16—th Captain F. M. Long has just returned from the wreck. Mr. Berry is doing well. I have just received from Captain Long, the gentlemanly con ductor of No. 2, his report to Col. John B, Peck, Superintendent, which is as follows : “Flagged to the wreck. Found Berry doing well and don’t seem to be severely hurt. Charles Pollard, the wood passer, the Doctor thinks, can’t live. The wreck is about 200 yards long. The two liremeu, Charles Pollard and Henry Pollard, colored, brothers, were thrown into the out with the engine. Charles Pollard had both legs broken. Henry Pollard’s fist was broken and otherwise hurt. The express agent was slightly hurt. As soon as the news reached Tocoa Mr. Cobb, the livery man, and a number of others went out with Dr. Doyle to attend to the suffer ers. Mr. John Sage went out with re freshments from the Davenport House. Mr. Berry, I learn, is not seriously hurt. His brother arrived to-night and went immediately to the wreck. This side of the ninety-eighth mile post the wash out is forty or forty-five feet wide and twelve or fifteen feet deep. The engine is on her side, badly broken. There are five box cars in the ditch.— The tender is on its side, cross wise, but clear of the track. The express car is damaged some. The baggage and all the other cars are on the track. No work js being done here to-night, as it is raining yet. The track from Tocoa to the wreck is washed in two places and there are two small slides. We could not get nearer than half a mile of the wreck. SVill go down in the morning. The trk from here to Keytller’s is in bad condition. There are two washes. Ret Mr. Fisher know this at once.” I close, promising you any other news concerning’the wreck, which I will visit to-morrow. G, W. N. THE STATE CANVASS, General Gartrell Declines to Bea Candidate, Atlanta, June 16, 1876. Editors Atlanta Constitution : After mature deliberation I have con cluded to withdraw my name from the i list of gentlemen heretofore suggested as suitable persons to be presented to the approaching Convention for the of fice of Governor. |?rom present ap pearances I fear t'be contest for the nom ination will be an exciting one, and I am unwilling to enter into a heated contest for any office. The harmony and suc cess of the Democratic party in the State and throughout the Union, at this time, are of paramount importance, and the triunjph of true Democratic principles iu the election to office of .able, compe tent and faithful public servants, pledg ed to retrench meat, .economy and re form, will be of more advantage to the people at large than the elevation to of uce of any particular individual. Asa pri ate citizen, desiring the welfare and prosperity of the people, I shall strive to accomplish these results. In with drawing from the contest, as I now do. I take this occasion to state that I shall ever hold in grateful remembrance the many warm and gefierous* personal and political friends in all sections of the tjtiuu have manifested their prefer 'i eaves i<?y this high and responsi ble position, and siso to express my warm thanks to' the members of the press for the kind and complimentary terms in which they have been pleased to allude to my nam a . lam truly yours, L.

Mail to Lkcolnton.— After the Ist of Jnly Lincolnton will have a mail twice a week, via Thomson. This will be a great convenience to the people of Lincoln county, who are much indebted to Senator Norwood for his promptness and attention in securing this addition al and much needed mail service.

Two Hundred and Fifty-Two Miles loess Between Augusta and Cincinnati via tbe Augusta and Hartwell Railroad Tbdu by the Present Route. ( The primary question for the people of Angnsta to consider at this time is what can be done to revive business and bring back the trade which legitimately belongs to her. Above ns, along the Savannah river, on both sides, is a fertile and produc tive country, raising many thousand bales of cotton each year. Every bale of this should come to Augusta, and would do it if the means of transporta tion were at hand. But in this age of railways, peocle are not apt to hold on to the old faslioned wagon line, and are qnick to avail themselves of the nearest railroad. Eibert, Lincoln and contigu ous counties are clamoring for a railway which wili enable them to send their produce to market. Years ago, when the projeot of building the Angnsta and Hartwell Bailroad was first inaugurated, those coanties reasonably expected that their efforts were about to meet with success. The importance of the pro posed road, not only to the section of country through which it would pass, bnt to Angnsta as well, was very evi dent, and it was, therefore, not unrea sonable to expect that this city would take au active interest in tbe matter, and see to it that tbe necessary amount to construct tbe road was raised. But as time went on, and the road was still only on paper, it became apparent that the holies of the country people were doomed to disappointment. Elbert, determined to have an outlet, set about building a railroad for itself. A route was surveyed from Elberton to the Richmond and Atlanta Air Line, and grading commenced. The work is now going on. Asa matter of course, everything shipped from Elbert by that route will go to Atlanta. We are in formed that Mr. John H. James has of fered to subscribe one hundred thou sand dollars to a railroad from Elber ton to Linoolnton, provided the produce from Lincoln is sent to Atlanta. If this road should be built it does not need much figuring to tell how much Augusta will lose. Lincolu is a produc tive county, and all or nearly all of her produce has hitherto been sent to this city. But with this railroad running into her midst it cannot be expected that she will forego its advantages and come to Augusta by the wagon system as cf yore. This brings us back to the query in the premises : What must we do to hold our own and add to the trade of the city ? One thing is morally certain. If the Augusta and Hartwell Railroad is built we will accomplish both objects. The natural inclination of the people in the Savannah River Valley is to come to Augusta with the products of their farms and plantations. Only assist them in obtaining the means to get here, and the wealth of that rich section will be poured into the lap Of Augusta. But is the Savannah River Valley the only sec tion to be considered ? We think not. Beyond is the Great West, from 'whion we obtain annually so large an amount of bacon, corn and other supplies.— The Western producer and ship per will naturally patronize the shortest route to the sea, and the grain depot for this portion of the South. Let us look at a few figures. The distance from Augusta to Cincin nati, by the present roate, is 759 miles, divided as follows : From Augusta to Atlanta, 171 miles ; from Atlanta to Chattanooga, 138 miles ; from Chatta uooga to Nashville, 151 miles ; from Nashville to Louisville, 189 miles; from Louisville to Cincinnati, 110 miles. Via the Augusta and Hartwell Railroad, it is 507 miles, divided as follows : From Augusta to Rabun Gap, 150 miles; Rabun Gap to Kuoxville, 85 miles; Knoxville to Junction, 130 miles; Juuctiou to Nicholasville, 30 miles ; Nicholasville to Cincinnati, ’ll2 miles. This givee ns a diffeience of 252 miles in favor of the route via the Augusta and Hartwell Railroad. Now let tis see how much of this route remains to be con structed. Under the new survey the Augusta and Hartwell Railroad runs along the Savannah river valley to the Tugalo river, which it crosses/and ex tends thence to Seneca City, where it effects a junction wi(jji the Blue Ridge Railroad. Under the old survey, the road instead of crossing the Tugalo, ran across the Richmond and Atlanta Air Line to Rabnn Gap. The fifty miles from the river to the Gap was the hard est portion of the road, and its grading would have cost as much as that of all the remainder of the route. The people betweeu the Tugalo and Seneca City, in South Carolina, have already subscribed 350,000 and placed it in the hands of Col. Harrison, to be used in constructing that portion of the road, conditional, however, upon tangible a.-surnnees that something will be done at this end. From Seneca City to Walhalla there is already a railroad, the Blue Ridge. From this place to Maryville, Tennessee, is another gap of forty-two miles. But the people in the section between Ma ryville aud the South Carolina State line have already given assurances that they will build that portion of the line, provided that from Walhalla to the line is constructed by their neighbors. From Maryville to Junction there is a contin uous line already built. From Junction to Nicholasville there is another gap of thirty miles, ten of which are graded. From this point there is a continuous line to Cincipnati. So then there are in all one hundred and ninety-two miles of road to be built to complete the Air Line route between Augusta and Cin cinnati. The first objective point in this gap is the Augusta and Hartwell Railroad. Work once commenced on that, the other seventy-two miles will quickly be constructed. We have it from competent authority that the road can be built for one million and a half— five hundred thousand in subscriptions and one million in bonds. Certainly the benefits to be derived from the road, when built are great enough to induce people in this section to subscribe the requisite half million.
