The unports of foreign merchandise at
New York during the week were about

The promptness of Mr. Parnell in
throwing cold water on the hot headed
Philadelphia land leaguers who wished
to support Arabi in his dght with Eng

Mr. AL Tuornton, of Atlanta, the self
appointed Chairman of a mythical "lib
eral” party in Georgia, some time ago
published a call for a conference of his
party in that city for the 15th instant
(yesterday). It was not numerously at
tended, as we gather from our dispatches
that the entire assemblage consisted of
. three spectators and three newspaper
men. In consequence the show adjourn

It will puzzle most people to discover
what is the advantage of having a ma
jority if it cannot do as it desires within
the law. The Republicans have a ma
jority in both branches, and increased
it in the House by familiar methods. If
that majority is not responsible for the
work of the session, who is? The Re'
publican organs are wrestling manfully
with the problem, but have thus far
failed to explain it to their satisfaction.

The Boston Traveller, an able negro
philist, remarks that thus far the Repub

nominated a colored man for office, and
are not likely to do so at present, but
that the time will come when it will be
done. Its first two statements are
“frozen facts,” but as Cuffie is not nu
merous in the Bay State he will be apt to
think as to the last statement that now
is about as good a time as any.
The Cincinnati Commercial thinks Mr.
Stephens will make an excellent Gov
ernor. It says of him: “We believe him
to be the firm friend of the Union, and
imbued with such a national spirit that
he is able to rise above sectional and
local prejudices. During his career in
Congress since the war, he has enjoyed
the confidence and respect of his fellows
on both sides of the House. His integ
rity is above suspicion. There is nothing
of the small trading and jobbing politi
cian about him.”
The opinion prevails in W ashington
that Dorsey caused his letter to Garfield,
in which he impudently advised the
President to consult Arthur and Conk

just at this time in the hope of inducing
the administration to relax its pressure
for a conviction of the star route gang.
Whether his hope has been realized or
not is not known, though his friends
have been claiming with unusual posi
tiveness during the past few days that
he would not be convicted.
The Northern press to a great ex
tent get furiously angry whenever a
Southern paper speaks with satisfaction

expended on the improvement of the
Mississippi. That is always the way.
Hundreds of millions of public money
an be spent in the North and it is all
right, even though the expenditure re
sults only in benefit to that section. But
when a few millions are to be spent on a
work of national importance it is all
wrong, because the expenditure is to be
made in the South.
Among the measures signed by the
President on the last day of the recent
session of Congress were the joint reso
lutions for a commission to investigate
the decline of American shipping, and a
bill to encourage telegraphic commuti

for the incorporation of anew ocean
telegraph company, and grants it the
needed franchises. It also makes specific
provision agi’nst consolidation with
other companies and watering of stock,
and limits the charge for all messages to
twenty cents a word. It is believed that
if the company is put into operation
under these restrictions there will be
some chance of breaking down monopoly

American Capitalists and the South.
The American Bankers Association
will assemble at Saratoga to day, and re
main in session two days. The session
will be one of unusual interest to the
whole country, since it will be largely at
tended by representatives of Chambers
of Commerce and Boards of Trade and
a number of papers will be read, and
discussion had thereon, on such matters
as “the currency of the future, “ans
tional bankrupt law,” ' the future pros
pects of the South, and the inducements
offered to capitalists to invest in this
section,” and many other topics of gene
ral importance.
The interest felt in the future of the
South by this association of American
capitalists is exceedingly encouraging as
well as significant It is well known
how sensitive is capital, and while it is
ever on the alert for investment, yet how
the fortunate possessor thereof is
always exceedingly careful not to
place his means in any venture
or any enterprise until he is pretty
well assured before hand that he
stands at least a very good chance of
safety for his principal, and of receiving
besides a fair interest When, there
fore, we see the assembled capitalists of
the United States turning their eyes in
this direction, it may be accepted as
proof positive that our section is enjoy
ing all the present prosperity which is
being claimed for her, and that her ca
pacities for further development are un
doubted, and offer fine field for profita
ble investments.
Much substantial benefit then will
most probably be experienced by our
section from this session of the Bankers’
Association, for that the result of its
discussions over the future of the South
cannot but be favorable to the investment
of capital in our midst, is an assured
fact. The amazing recuperative powers
of the South have been fully demon
strated. Never in the history of the
world has any country emerged from so
many apparently crushing obstacles, and
made so splendid a start on the high
road to prosperity and wealth in so short
a time as has this favored section. Ini
poverished by a war in which her losses
were absolutely far heavier than the
total public debt of the United States
at the close of the conflict;
her labor system totally disor
ganized; the victim for years of
carpet-bag misrule and thievery, and
radical oppression and malignity, her
peaple, despite all these tremendous hin
drances to recuperation, have borne their
troubles with unexampled fortitude, and,
refusing to be driven to despair or apa
thy, haye steadily worked with a hero
ism, bravery and industry worthy of all
admiration to improve the condition of
their section and themselves. The large
increase of our manufactories; our ex
tensive mining operations; the number
of miles of railway built and building,
all opening up new and desirable terri
tory; our new industries already estab
lished and constantly being added to —
all these show how well they have suc
ceeded. When the present condition of
the South is compared with that in which
she found herself less than two decades
ago, the strides onward she has made, in
the face of the well-nigh overwhelming
drawbacks we have noted, are simply
wonderful.
It is claimed that much of the recu
peration is due to Northern capital which
was invested in the South after the war.
This is true. No section, no people, and
no individual can make headway unless
asded by money. Still, after all, the in
vestment of this capital was due to the
superior natural advantages of the South,
and the favorable prospects that the in
vestments would prove profitable. Surely
nothing is more certain than that not one
dollar from the North has ever been ex
pended here from simple love of our
section, unless we except such special
charities as have been extended by phil
anthropists of the Peabody and Seney
school. And if the South, laboring
under all the disadvantages to which she
was subjected -just after the war, was
able to offer sufficient inducements to
attract capital towards her even then,
how vastly greater must these induce
ments be now.
The American bankers are indeed wise
in determining to seriously consider the
subject of using their means for the de
velopment of the South, since no section
can boast of greater possibilities, and
experience has shown that their
money will be speedily returned
with handsome profits. And all
the South needs is capital with
which to improve the advantages with
which we have been blessed by a benefi
cent Providence to become the wealthiest
and, consequently, the most powerful
region of this entire land. Let our peo
ple bend their every energy mainly to
this object; let them utilize the means
within their reach and determine to
continue to work steadily for the
advancement of their material in
te rests. In short, let them
but manifest the same spirit of industry,
fortitude and perseverance which has
characterized them since the war, and
aided by the banks in securing capital,
the want of which they have so long
seriously felt, in another decade the
South will truly blossom like a rose, and
occupy an enviable and influential posi
tion in the country. This will not only
secure happiness to her people, but it
will do more to command for her respect
and to re-establish her ancient prestige
than mere attention to politics can
accomplish in a century.
An improbable story comes from
Washington "that the reason why the
Democratic Congressional Committee is
not working more actively is because
prominent leaders of the party take the
ground that it would be unfortunate for
the Democracy to obtain control of the
next House. They reason that in that
case the Democrats would not only be
oome partly responsible for legislative
blunders, but with a Republican Senate
and President, they could not im
press a Democratic policy upon
the country. Furthermore they con
tend, as* is alleged, that the Re
publican party has ventured upon
a course of reckless extravagance,
which, if continued, will sweep them
from power in 1884. This story is
wholy incredible. The Democrats can
not entertain such foolish ideas. If the
Republicans carry the next House they
will probably make short work of the
Treasury surplus, and having done that
they will become so exceedingly economi
cal that by 1884 they will deceive the
people into.believing that they are very
paragons of virtue. It will not do for
the Democrats to run the risk of allow
ing the party of high moral ideas to hang
itself by giving it rope enough. Its
leaders are too cute to be caught in any
such trap.

Protection and Wages.
As is well known one of the favorite
cries of the protectionists to the work
ingman is that a protective tariff keeps
the laborer busy and guarantees him high
wages, and is indispensable for fostering
our “infant industries.” Statistics fur
nished by the census reports of 1880 do
not verify the former assertion, however,
if iron and steel—about the most heavily
protected articles in common use
are any criterion. These statistics,
as collated by the Boston Post, show
that in 1880 there were 805 companies
engaged in producing iron ore, and they
produced 7,971,703 tons, employing to
do the work 31,668 persons, at a daily
cost of $31,793, a very few cents over $1
per day for each person, which is less
than the average workers in any un
protected business in the country. The
ttal number employed in the production
of pig and bar iron and steel was 140,-
975, who received $184,922 a day, or $1 30
each, their service coming more under
the head of skilled labor than that of the
miners. Surely $1 30 a day on an aver
age for skilled labor in one of the most
protected of all our many protected in
dustries, cannot be regarded as very
munificent compensation, especially
when, according to statistics of “Labor
in Europe and America,” a special re
port on that subject, published by Ed
ward Young, Ph. D., Chief of the
United States Bureau of Statistics in
1875, it is stated that at that time semi
skilled labor in English rail and angle
mills received on an average from ss. to
6s. per day.
In this connection the Free Trade
League, of New York, has issued a
pamphlet, which deals very forcibly also
with the “infant industry” plea. It says:
“In the first place, our infant industries
area century old. In the second, the
compiler of these statistics acknowledges
that our superior skill places the world
at a disadvantage with us. Thirdly, our
iron ore and coa! are generally situated
so close together that the former can
easily be worked with the latter.
Fourthly, while the iron and coal of
Europe are far down below the surface,
ours are almost upon it. Fifthly, our
iron and coal supplies are in close prox
imity to the market. Sixthly, they are
adjacent to the great food producing
centre of the United States, which is
relied upon to supply half the food
eaten by the iron workers of Europe,
Therefore, without any protection at all,
it is shown, our iron masters could
afford to pay 100 per cent, more wages
to their workmen than they do, before
foreign competition would affect them. ”
These are very plain statements of
facts and figures to show that protection
neither protects wages nor our infant in
dustries to the extent claimed, while the
strikes which have been in progress in
the West for some months past are de
cidedly practical proofs that it does not
keep the workingmen busy at all times
and under all circumstances. But,
as our Boston contemporary aptly
remarks, "the protectionists do not care
for demonstrations. When the next
Presidential campaign comes On they
will have their formulas and threats to
workingmen posted up in their furnaces,
factories and mills, just as they did in
1880, and not until the people who labor
turn their thinking to some account,stop
striking, and redress their grievances by
voting, will they make a positive ad
vance towards independence and better
circumstances. ”
An indignant “Colored Voter” of
Georgia, writing to the New York Sun
from Savannah, gives the reasons for the
recent action of the black Republicans
of this State. He does not mince his
words, but talks plainly. He says:
“Allow me to iDform our Northern
friends that the purpose of the stand we
have taken against the white Republicans
ol Georgia, known as the syndicate, is to
break up the gang. Wc are able to look
out for our own political interests, and
are in hope that these fellows will receive
an appointment to go West and fight the
Indians, for their game is up in Georgia,
and they are played out. I believe the
colored men of the South will vote the
straight Democratic ticket in 1884. un
less the Republicans make some effort to
pay back the money out of which they
swindled us in the Freedman’s Bank
operations. Until that money is paid
back, they must never expect any favors
from us.”
Here is a nut for our Northern friends,
the Radicals, to crack. It is quite evi
dent that Radical ste lings from, and
deceptions practiced upon, the “poor
African,” are, at length, like chickens,
coming home to rcost, and that the
negro cannot henceforth be relied on to
vote the Radical ticket, simply because
he is a negro.
The statistics of foreign trade of the
United States for June, compare very
favorably with the figures for May. The
imports of merchandise decreased from
$68,350,029 to $62,608,536, and the ex
ports increased from $49,178,968 to $50,-
959,871. But making the comparison
between June of 1881 and June of 1882,
the result is unfavorable to the current
year. The increase of imports of mer
chandise thus shown is $3,747,727, and
the decrease of exports $12,490,408. The
specie movement for the month shows
an excess of exports of $5,825,330,
against a similar excess of $1,022,152 in
1881, the imports in June, 1882, being
only $1,073,823.
Colonel P. W. Alexander, now residing
at Marietta, was Chairman of the Nor
wood Executive Committee duiing the
last campaign. In an interview w.tha
reporter of the Atlanta Constitution a
few days sin e, he expressed the opinion
that the Democratic differences of two
years ago had all passed away, and the
supporters of Mr. Norwood would, as a
rule, support Mr. Stephens as cordially as
w?ll the friends of Governor Colquitt

Arabi Bey evidently thinks he is “a
biger man” than Abdul Hamid, for he
not only refuses to acknowledge himself
a rebel upon the declaration of that offi
cial, but even assumes that the Sultan
himself is recreant to the faith, and
should therefore be deposed. He has,
in consequence, declared Abdul no
longer ruler of Turkey, and has nomi
nated the Sheriff of Mecca as his suc
cessor. Arabi is either crazy or has
determined upon playing a remarkably
cheeky game. After he is whipped out
he ought to come to the United States
and join the Radical party.
Baltimore Day: “That some Southern ne
groes manage to get along comfortably with
out interfering In Radical politics, appears
every day. One of the most remarkable
cases is that of an old man of 80, living near
ttaine*ville, Ala., who, with the aeeistanceof
his wife, cultivates fifteen acres in corn and
ten in cotton, doing his plowing with an ox,
which cost him $l5 three years ago. Last
year he made three hundred bushels of corn
and three bales of cotton, out of which he
had to pay only $3O, and that for rent. This
year he expects to raise four bales of cotton
aM not less than four hundred and fifty
bushels of corn, besides having meat
enough for his own use another year, and
about twelve hundred pounds to selL This
is a much better record than that of ex-
Cadet Whittaker and ex-Lieutenant Flipper,
who, If they will follow the example of this
old negro, may in turn become as useful cit
izens. The future of the black msn at the
South is all he can desire, and if he does not
take advantage of the situation he will have
only himself to blame.”

At Ktppendarne, In Scotland, has just
died Mr. John Stirling, who is declared to
have been the nee rest approach to a railway
king that Scotland has ever had. His
earliest connection with railways was with
the Scottish Central Company; subsequently
be was made Chairman of the Northeastern
Company, and finally, in 1866, b- came
Chairman of the North British, an investi
gation Into the affairs of the Utter company
having in that year led to the retirement of
several directors. Over the affairs of tbe
North British Company he presided with
great ability, the qualities conspicuous in
him having been unfailing courage, rate
foresight and large re-ources. It was Mr.
Stirling who organized and made financially
possible the schemes for building the Tay
and Forth bridges, enterprises which called
for the highest capacity and courage.
No fewer than eleven clergymen—seven

Wesleyans. During the campaign In the
Crimea there were but two Chaplains for all
the troops engaged, and these were both of
the English Church. One Catholic priest,
Father William Strickland, went out with
the troops to Sebastopol, and remained there
until the end. But he was a volunteer for
the work, and was paid by the Order of
Jesuits, to which be oelonged. He Is said
to have at one time visited between 200 aud
300 men In hospital every day. But of
either Presbyterian or Wesleyan ministers
there was not one, and the Anglican clergy
men had to read prayers to seven or eight
different congregations every Sunday.
Joseph Aurlol, of Perpignan, in France,
has been sentenced to Imprisonment lor life
for crimes to which that punish men! seems
altogether inadequate. He is a priest, and
hlscrimes were the murder of two women,
members of bis parish, who had shown him
great kindness and over whom he had re
quired great influence. Aurlol desired to
elope with a ecbool teacher living in an
other parish, but he had not the necessary
money. Both of Ihe murdered women,
whose names were Marie and Rose Fonda,
were well to do. Marie was Induced by
Aurlol to drink a decoction of hellebore
root, from which she expired in a few hours.
Her death was attributed to heart disease
and she was buried, no one suspecting the
foul play. A month later Rose died from a
dose of prussic acid which he had given her,
and In her will it was found that Aurlol
was her sole heir. During his imprisonment
before tbe trial Aurlol wrote a confession of
both crimes, but on trial he denied that he
had committed them. He was, however,
found guilty of both and sentenced as
alreay stated.
Lords have been decidedly unpopular in
Ireland during the past two years. However
liberal his tendencies, to be called a lord at
ail has been sufficient to engender suspicion
and distrust. In the present state of things
to find a lord whose selection to fill tbe
office of extra commissioner under the ar
rears act provokes a feeling among the peo
ple akin to enthusiasm is a very remarkable
circumstance. It is still more extraordinary
when he is found in the person of a lord
who is an extensive land owner and has
held office under various governments since
1855. Viscount Monck Is the fortunate no
bleman referred to. When the arrears act
becomes law he Is to administer it at a sala
ry of $15,000 a year. His countrymen had
first an opportunity to judge of bis fairness
as a Commissioner of Church Temporal 1-
ties. The disposition of the church lands
after tbe disestablishment brought him in
contact with men of every shade of opin
ion, and the universal verdict was
that he has proved himself worthy of the
confidence of the nation. The Irish Tory
organs unite in tbe statement that property
owners have reason to be well pleased with
the appointment, and tbe Farnellite organs
say that It will be accepted as “an augury
of a liberal and judicious application of the
act.” Viscount Monck has spent a great
deal of time in making himself familiar with
the various phases of the land question.
He Is now sixty-two years old. In 1849 he
succeeded his father, and three years later
was elected to the British Parliament from
Portsmouth He became a Lord of the
Treasury ifi 1855, and held office until 1858.
From 1861 to 1868 he served aa Governor
General of Canada, and the Canadians have
reason to remember him as one of the ablest
of the Irishmen who have been at the head

Mamitta, Qa.., Aueust U-Editor Morning
.Veto* .- In my last I promised an account of the
excursion tendered by General Wm. Phillips
to the Btate Agricultural Convention during its
recent session here, and accepted by that body
for Thursdsy, after its adjournment on
Wednesday evening General Phillips is Vice
President of the Marietta and North Georgia
Railroad, which is a narrow gauge, leading
from Marietta via Canton. Jasper and other
North Georgia towns to Murphy, on Broad
river, in North Carolina, and destined to open
up to commerce and the world one of the most
fertile and Interesting sections of the State of
Georgia The road has had many difficulties
to encounter. Two or three times work was
suspended for want of capital, and it is indebt
ed for the vitality which remained, I under
stand, to the convict labor donated by the
Btate, and the indefatigable efforts of General
Phillips, who finally interested others
and brought to the support of
the enterprise Mr. George R. Eager,
of Boston, and Mr. Joseph Kinsey, of Cincin;
nati, the latter now President of the company.
From his well known interest and indomitable
energy in the work, the road is generally
known here as ‘‘Phillips' road." and many of
your readers are acquainted with the endless
talk about the treatment of the convicts on his
road, the visitations and inspections of his
camps, etc . set on foot during the last session
of the Legislature. The lengths of the road, I
believe.is ninety miles from Marietta to Murphy
In North Carolina.and has been graded through
out Its length, except about four miles in Fan
nin county, nearly in tbe centre of the line.
The section of Georgia through which it passes
is a continuation of that “Switzerland of
America" which comprises so large a portion
of East Tennessee and Western North Carolina,
and abounds in picturesque and beautiful
mountain scenery. The Etowah meanders at
the foot of hills and mountains for more than
half the length of the road, and in
connection with other streams form a sort
of opening or gorge through the mountainous
region, which may be said to have suggested
the important work now in progress as a great
highway through what was before an Inacces
sible region of interminable hills and moun
tains. Though so nearly all graded the iron is
only laid to Ball Hill, in Cherokee county, a
distance of thirty six miles from Marietta, to
which place I will now return ;o join the ex
cursion.
Not having it In his power to be present, as
explained in his letter of invitation to the con
vention, on account of personal oblig tions t®
his company. General Phillips deputed several
of his ablest assistants to take ctiarge of the
excursion, and under the management of con
tractor W. H. Simmons and General Superin
tendent C. E. Adams, ably and courteously as
sisted by Hon. L J. Allred, of Pickens county,
the excursion was made entirely successful
and pleasant. Starting out at 9 o’clock a. m..
with about two hundred delegates and promi
nent citizens of the State, the train proceeded
in a northeasterly direction, as near as your
correspondent could judge, upon a road that
must cover all points of the compass to avoid
deep cuts and high mountains, in the direction
of Canton, in the adjoining county of Cherokee.
Little river was crowed about midway
between Marietta and Canton, and
the Etowah three miles north of
the latter; but the charming valley of the
Etowah was seen from the train and entered
before reaching Canton, which beautiful town,
the capital of Cherokee county, is perched
upon a high range of hills looking down upon
the Etowah winding among the hills, and lined
with green crops of c m and cotton. The fer
tility of this valley is not surpassed if equaled
by any iands in the State, and the crowded
corn fields seemed literally burdened with the
grain. A large crowd of citizens greeted the
arrival of the train at Canton and called loudly
for "Hardeman,” who. as President of the
State Agricultural Society and also the Demo
cratic Congressional nominee for the State at
large, was an object of special interest to the
people along the line. Col. Hardeman respond
ed warmly in remarks upon the prosperity of
the State, but made no ailusiou to politics,that
I could hear from a distant car.
In the Etowah valley, a few miles above
Canton, while the train was passing through a
rich forest of waving green corn. CoL Allred,
of Pickens county, who tourteously stationed
himself near and pointed out to many the
most attractive features of the section, an
nounetd that "this is the field where Joe
B-own was binding wheat when notified of his
first nomination as Governor of Georgia."
Every head immediately went o it at a window
or rushed to the platforms, and Senator
Brown’s corn field became an object of deep
Interest, while a perfect flood of questions
poured in upon those charged with the im
portant duty of gratifying the curiosity of the
excursionists. But this was not atl—fairly out
of the field and in a narrow valley the train
came to a stand on a high embankment and
hard by a very small stream on the left, which
wound away among the hills and poured its
gurgling red waters into the Etowah. "This
is where Joe Brown had hL mill—there
are some of the old timbers and here some
remains of the dam, while the train stands above
the pier head. Here he came before day, when
a youth, to grind seven or e’ght bushe sof corn
with the small head of water which the scant
stream collected during the night.” The rea
son for grinding before day was explained as
eoonomic, water being heavier during the night,
and the utilizing of it before the daylight
evaporation set in. So it will be seen that in
the estimatiion of his admirers, at least, our
ex-Governor and United States Senator was a
philosophic farmer and ecccomist at an early
age. As the Senator had returned to bis home
in Atlanta, he should have been present to en
joy the interest manifes'ed by his friends in
the scenes of his early manhood. The resi
dence of his brother, Judge James R. Brown,
was pointed out in the same sweet val
ley, and that of his brother-in-law, Mr. Lay,
whose name was given to the beautiful spring
of limpid, eool water, where lunch was served
for the excursion.
This sprirg is thirty-three miles from Mari
etta, in a splendid grove of royal old oaks, and
three miles from Ball Hill, the present termi
nu cf the railroad. Superintendent Adams
had special charge of the preparations for
lunch, and. aided by Colonel Simmons as mas
ter of ceremonies, the duties wt-re performed
with a skill that mast give entire satisfaction
to General Phillies. After lunch, watermelons
and cigars, the excursion proceeded to Ball
Hill—so called from the annual assembling of
tbe Indians upon the spot for a game of hali
but I have no space for history. On the return
trip the excursion halted at Woodstock, and
curiously inspected and commented upon the
famous barn and stock farm purchased by R
B. Bullock while Governor of Georgia, which
were seized by the State authorities and re
turned to the Treasury after his inglorious
flight. The barn is perhaps the largest in the
State, and was by far the most costly, tut now
it is rapidly going to decay. Here Jnr. Bullock
was preparing a princely estate for his ease
and eojoyment after his arduous labors as
pa riot and statesman (f) in the service of his
country. But the course of politics never did
ran smooth, and fickle dame fortune gave him
the mitten in the zenith of prosperity and ain
bition. With many a joke and jeer, the excur
sionists turned their backs upon "Bullock’s
r olly.” re-entered the cars for Marietta, and a
few hours later dispersed for their homes.
And now a last word for the North Georgia
Road and the grandly beautiful country it is
designed efficiently to serve. Tnere are no
great through freights or travel to expect, and
hence the difficulty enoountered in the effort to
Interest capital—but Eastern Americadoes not
afford a more lovely and inviting prospect for
home and happiness than the green hills and
valleys of this beautiful section The Etowah
valley, so famous for fertility and beauty south
from Canton, increases its charms northward
as it grows narrower in general, but spreads
out into a broad "savanna” in the county of
Dawson. In the county of Pickens it
passes along the foot f the moun
tains, forming the beautitul plain upon which is
situated the town of Jasper, between Sharp
and Longswamp Mountains, the highest peak
of which is called Grassy Knob This peak is
8,890 feet above the sea level and 2,1:16 fee*
higher than tbe turret on the capitol in Atlanta,
from which it is distant only fifty miles on an
air-line. At the foot of these mountains, and
cropping out along the streams for twelve
ixiies or more, is one of the finest veins of pure
white, flesh-colored and variegsted marble in
America, now about to be rendered accessible
by the North Georgia Railroad; while in the
same neighborhood are iron mines, once work
ed, with better ore lying about on the surface,
I am informed, than that taken from the great
paying mines of Pennsylvania. Other minerals
are also found throughout the region, and it is
confidently believed by intelligent men that,
once open to transportation, tbis mountain dis
trict of Geor-ia w >ll rapidly become the busi
est, most interesting and profitable section o t
the State. L. C. B.
Trouble Between a North Carolina
and a Georgia Company.
Dispatch to Industrial South.
A Georgia company Is buildiDg a railroad
from Marietta, Ga., to Murphy, N. C. The
latter place Is a few miles from Ducktown,
which is to be the terminus of the Western
North Carolina Railroad. The line of this
road from Asheville to Ducktown has been
surveyed an located, and runs through a
ravine between two mountains called Mar
ble Gap. An examination shows that the
mountain on each side of the gap is pure
marble. The location of the road
runs along this gap for over a
mile. The marble is very valuable,
and the Western North Carolina Railroad
Company confidently expect to realize
enough money from this source to pav for
building the road from Asheville to Duck
town, which will cost $5,000,000. The road
Is now running to Pigeon river, in Haywood
county, and a force of one thousand con
victs are steadily working toward Duck
town. The Marietta and Georgia Company
is building to Murphy and is trying to get
possession of Marble Gap, because it is
their best route and because of the
value of the marble. A few days ago this
company, with one hundred hands,
took forcible possession of the route
surveyed and located through Mar
ble Gap for the Western North Caro
lina Railroad, and ie constructing its
own road-bed. The legal adviser of the
Western North Carolina Company has gone
to the scene of action for the purpose of
preventing this Inter-State larceny. If legal
proceedings should not avail Immediately
to dlspossees the trespassers, Governor Jar
vis will be asked to send a sufficient number
of State troops to drive the Invaders back
into Georgia. It is possible that there may
be a cooflic between the two Statee. The
Georgia company does not appear to have
any legal grounds for its acting, but it is
said it has taken this course in order to com
pel the Western North Carolina Company to
grant it connections and freight privileges
and other railroad accommodations.
