THEGATECITY. ATLANTA ALL AGLOW—THE LARGEST CROWD EVER AS SEMBLED IN GEORGIA. THE PRESIDENT AND HIS WIFE RECEIVE A BRILLIANT RE CEPTION. In company with quite a number of friends and acquaintances the Sentinel hoarded Monday last the j west bound day train, bound for the j Southern Metropolis. As the train approached we discovered to our dis comfort the crowded condition, to gether with the oft repeated “no room,” increased our anxiety, and our fears were not v/holly groundless. With some engi earing the ladies in : our party were comparatively coni ! fortably seated, but the gentlemen j poor fellows, “one of whom I am ; which,” had to succumb to the inevit j able and stand up the most of the ■ way, and our word for it, we were > punished severely, imagine a 220 pounder, standing on bis feet from 11 o’clock a. mJ, until 9.30 p. m. Our , party continued cheerful and in good spirits until we reached Conyers,when delays came, rendering the remainder of the trip irksome and monotonous. The Major took through passage on the coal box in lear of the stove. He says it is by long odds better than ! standing. Misses G , B, apd I’., stood SENTINEL Terms, $1 25aYear in A-dLvfinoo. the fatigue well ai.d could not be in- 1 duced to say, I wish I had remained at home. Mrs. 15., was rather free to admit a lack of good judgement in attempting the trip. We were bless ed with rain which added very ma terially to the comfort, so far as the dust was concerned. Our train was very heavily loaded and together with , the wet rails impeded our progress greatly, especially at the “up grades.’’ Atlanta reached our party dispers ed, going north, east, south and west to their respective places of abode. — Tlie Sentinel was somewhat unfor tunate and by reason of the crowded condition of the Markham (the best Hotel in the S nith) had the exquisite pleasure of spending the night in an easy chair, sleeping were remarkably and feeling greatly refreshed next morning. The “Gate C.ty” is literally alive with people, in fact it is difficult to sec the town for the people. This is one time Atlanta is not equal to the task, only in point of accommodation. In every other respect the Exposition is the grandest success of the age, taking into consideration the short space of time that intervened bet ween the conception of the plan and the grand opening on the 10th. The Exposition has been very ex tensively advertised and equally as liberally patronized, showing conclu - sively what virtue there is in printer’s ink Henry Grady andtho Constitution backed up by the press generally brought together the largest crowd that ever assembled in Georgia, and we hope it will be conducive to the future welfare of Atlanta, but fear it will have a damaging effect in some directions. Accommodations wore not so ample as might have been Plenty to eat could be had, but not it i place of rest for the weary and foot sore at night and numbers wandered about in an aimless way, awaiting the return of day. Atlanta has done well but the combination rendered the strain too great and she proved un : equal to the emergency. We are in formed the crowd reached 125,000 on Wednesday, it being the great day of the Exposition, including the review of the Military by the Chief Execu tive, the President and his bewitching little wife, the sham battle, &c. The street parade on Tuesday was a grand I and gorgeous affair, which brought forth cheers from the vast seathing mass of humanity that rent the air and made the welkin ring All man ner of quaint speeches were made, among the rest one made by a plain, | honest, countryman, which had the ring of loyalty in it. “Hurrah for Jefferson Davis first, and Cleveland , next.” These words were uttered within a few feel of the President, | causing he and bis wife to smile j pleasantly In one case we find true j j love and veneration, in the other ad | miration and respect. i Our limited space forbids an ex tended article on the Exposition and ! everything pertaining to it. So far | as we are capable of judging, the ex hibits are veey superior, showing up in plain colors the resources of Geor- 1 gia and the exceeding taste of Geor- I 1 gians in arranging displays. We will make especial mention of the Putnam 1 county exhibit as being wilho .t a 1 peer. President eliould and doubtless I does feel highly honored, and will ever have a kindly feeling for Georgia ; and Georgians. The various reccp- I (ions were brilliant. The Georgia weekly press met on Wednesday at 10 o’clock in the city i Court room to arrange for the recep tion which took place in the Kimball parlors at C o’clock p. m. of the same day. We could not remain over to participate but at 2:45 turned our face homeward with no regrets. VOL VI NO 5 Tale til' Two Tramps. Albany News and Advertiser: It is rather un-ensonablo for tramps, but then, like dudes, they break out in sporadic instances to remind us that the fool killer occasionally sleeps over his work. Or, perhaps, they are sent us in illustration of the Biblical .say ing: “the poor ye have always with yon.” This is not a congenial clime for tramps, and none have ever been known to originate hero, but, like germs <>t yellow fever or cholera, some adverse wind blows them to our shore. But it is anything else than a hospitable reception with which they are met. “Alas! for the rarity of Christian charity,” the poor tramp has none in these inhospitable parts, but when ho asks for bread a policeman gives him a billy, witU tho soothing and moving injunction, “move on.” Tho crisp cool ’.lights of October turn the thoughts of professional tramps Southward, and with tho in stinct of birds that fly toward peren nial spring as “the leaves begin to turn,” they come down in troupes and singly. 'They are the terror of children and tho dread of innocent, nervous women, and play the same part in tho regulation of the nursery as tho once universally dreaded “run away-nigger.” Two of these early birds lit in At lanta a day or two sin e, and though dressed belter than (ho best types of them, began plying their trade, and with a view of hoarding their ready cash, sought lodging in empty box cars, oi*4>n nature’s green carpet un der tho spacious canopy of heaven’s star lit dome. Th'O lynx-eyed vigilance of our po lice ferreted them out, and on Friday night, after they had retired to pleas ant dreams of hot coffee and well bultireil biscuit, Officers Dunbivy and Janies rudely rapped at tho door of their lodging car with clubs that sounded the knell of hopes of secrecy which they fondly indulged. It was a very rude awakening, and the twain crawled from their temporary lodging ami were made to shake the dust of the city from their feet in short order. - Si 1 1 ri.i ss Nights, made miserable by that terrible cough.
