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

Jeffersoh, Jackson Cou>ty. June
14.—The wheat Laying been for the
most part harvested and jtke oats being
ripe, or nearly so, it is possible La make
a correct estimate of these crops. My
information extends over nearly all of
Northeast Georgia, and I can assure
you that the wheat crop is 3 very short
one. The area of land sown Was. large,
but the mst ou the blade and the Ry
have been very disastrous, and the yield
per acre will be very the g;ain
is shrunken and inferior, jfy predic
lion some time ago that the wheat prop
would be short and tho pat crop good
fist! beeu fully realized. The quantity
of oats ‘‘own was very large, and 1 never
saw finer oats in my life; but, alas ! this
is the third day during which east winds,
with rain*, have prevailed, and now foi
the most part the unreaped oats are ly
ing prone upon the ground aud much
of the crop will, therefore, be lost—
The destruction is a very sad sight-
Corn and cotton are backward, but gen
erally in good condition aud promising.
White aud black are wording assiduous
ly, and are hoping for better rimes. Foi
Governor, Gen. Colquitt, and that fgofcl#
old Raman, Hon. H. V. Johnson, seem
to be the favorite candidates thes<
parts. This is the mouth for PresidtiUi
j making, and the people all over the larni
are sighing and crying to tbe politicians,
saying. “Give ns a President of the
Unit'd States. For siaieen years the
North has had a President, and the
South has had none. Now, let ns have
a National President, who will adminis

TALIAFERRO TOPICS,

|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.

Editors Atlanta Constitution :
After mature deliberation I have con

as suitable persons to be presented to
the approaching Convention for the of

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

people at large than the elevation to of

THE SHORT ROUTE.
CINCINNATI TO THE SEA.
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. There must be
enterprise enough among us to make us
desire to enhance the trade of
Augusta, We feel assured that the
people along the line of the railroad
will do their part in the matter if Au
gusta and its cjtizens will contribute a
proportionate sharp of the acqpqnt need
ed to carry the enterprise to a success
ful termination.
