BILL ABP Visit? Charleston and Looks Upon Historio Fort Banter. Atlanta Constitution. I writ? you from tho city of Charlccton -tho city by the sea. I am now looking afar off upon the distant waves, afar towards Fort Sumter, tho historic place where the war began. I was ruminating about that small heginning of a sad end terrible conflict. That feeble cannonad ing that hardly shook tho land and did not disturb the calm and peaceful sea, but it quivered the heart of a great nation, and was the shock that smothered peace and sounded the call cf battle cud of death. I wish I lived by the sea, not all the time, for I love our hills and moun tains dearly, but I would like to have s , home down nero where I could bring the {recd wife and children and le,'- them east opon new scenes and look witb rap ture and with wonder upon the mighty ocean. How calm, how peaceful when* nt rest, how terrible in the storm. I believe such things enlarge us end make us better. They dignify the great Crea tor and fill ?B with awe and make us conscious of our own humility, while sittiog now upon the wharf watching the restless waters I cannot wonder at tho emotion of Lord Byron when ho wroto that sublime and beautiful verse "Roll on thou deep and dark blue Ocean, roll." There ?B surely something in nature that moulds a man to her imago. Not all men, but most men. They Bay that blood will tell, but blood is not all. Wooded stock, whether of man or beast, will not keep up on tho piney woods. It will degenerate, wo can almost tell wbere men carno from by looking at them and talking to them. The mountains produce a shifty, thrifty, active people, always smart, always in a hurry. The plains produce a quiet slow moviug, diguified }>opulation, who lovo their ease and care or their comfort end take time to enter tain their friends. If a Charleston man or a Savannah man is not dignified and courteous he is nothing. If an East Tennessean ia not sharp and close and calculating he is nothing. And so between tho seacoat and tho mountains we find all grades and all mixtures. I I have just visited three pleasant villages in South Carolina and mingled with their people Bsd enjoyed then: for tb_/ aro in no hurry to get through life, and content with their lot. I never saw a merchant hunting for trade. I never saw ono I i ko Jot Camp, of Roms, taking tho streets to induco custom, and working and toiling for business. That iu all right and I admire him and his diligence, but I can't help noticing tho diiTorcnce. Then there is Palillo, of Oartersvitle, I've watched him as a typical man, a genuino North Georgian, as restless as the troubled sea, working all tho time and watching for opportunities. He buys at venture and sells on sight and uses the bank and duns bis customer-: and deals in anything that oller.) a dollar of profit. Atlanta is that BAme way, fur Atlanta is made up of North Georgians. Most ail their success, ful men came from there, and thoy are smart and their motto is "Push atong, keep moving." It was the bracing, nervous air nf the mountains that made Moore am. Marsh and Eiserand Rhode Hill and Wyloy and Wyly and Peters and Doughtery and many others. Evan Howell has mountain stock in him, and so has Hemp hill and Grady and that is why they . succeed. They are the stook that win climb up and succeed without capital or friends. Nothing can keep them down. A Macon man will succeed in Macon but bo would hardly succeed in Atlanta, unless he bad a good backing and some ' special advantages. Some Charleston men who moved to Atlanta have succeed ed, but they had abundant capital and had North Georgia boys to help them. There is a wide difference between Macon and Atlanta in their methods of business. The Atlanta men walk faster, talk faster i?nd chew moro tobacco and give more b,vuk notes, and dun harder and brag eternally on Atlanto. Well, that IB* ail right. That ls business, and thetis what makes Atlanta. Why, a mah can break all tb pieces in Atlanta and rise again in two months and smile serenely. vVngraKIs O'? qr Ifta ton I If Ito yo Sot been here for 30 years. When I was a merchant I used to trade here. Twice <\ year I made my pilgrimage here and - bought my goods, ana now it makes rae sud td wander around lu search of the old familiar places and. find new signs. I SAW one hanging on a wall ; it was cor roding from tho Iron hand of time, but it was there-tho same old Blgn, "Hyatt McBuraoy & Co." But they were not there, ana no succession. The sign was nil. Happily I found one, but only one old friend, Mr. McGahan, the honest Scotchman, how of Edwin, Bates. & Co., and tho bead of tho house. Bb lathe only ono left of the old stock I used to deal with, a noble gentleman of the pure Charleston type. His boute bas a branch in Atlanta which shows his business aagaoity. Sitting down by him, I asked many questions and the answet waa dead, dead-out _ of buolnosa-moved " away.- Even Vanderzon, tue late surviv or o? Wiley, Banka & Co., ls thumping files in New York, and .bas passed bis thrc 2 score and ten. Van. was the lust merchant I ever knew except Mr. Nor ton, <>f Rome, and he couldn't talk to you s- minuto without thumping a fly from your clothes, or catching him as h? flew.- He was the best catch on tho fly I ever saw, and *tbe ia nt it yet. But those timo-houored names of honorable men names that I respected, for they did buni ne::) on honorable principle?, and they were the prido' of Charleston-where are they? There were the Bowies, and Gilli lands, and Fleming, and Dunham, and Dewing, Taylor & Co., and Chamber lain, Moler & Co., and McKenzie, Cadow & Co., and Clark, Hyde & Co., nnd Stod dard,ned Courtenay, Tennant lt Co., and I don't know bow many inore I used le trado with. Well? they are all gone, -or out of tallness, or dead-and it is only thirty yearo?ioce they wero in tholrglory. And BO we all pass away soon, and be no more remembered ? than Rutherford B. Bayes. But I did meet Mr. Courtenay, abd ho is well and well preserved, and is a president of ? balik, and ia honored by that people. Bia brother ia the Mayor of Charleston, and is worthy of tho honor bis people have shown him. 7 reverence these old classic harnee, foe joy ure c?aselo. There la something In a name. There's nothing la Kathe, I know, but whenever I meet with a Calhoun or ? Lamar or Cobb or Lowndes or Butiege or Bowie br Courtenay or PiokenB or ouch like, I naturally expect something of the man, and if ho is neither good nor groat, all J can say ia that he his gone back on bis ancestors, which he ougbtent to have done. Wall, I love Charleston.. My dear mother was born here-my best earthly friend except my wife-my "dear old mother, who et 111 love? to bloca me and pray Ito wyr, end wboy If she bad the privilege, would forgive UU- tr.y ?Ins.

J k*v4 made .new rlftnds, and X love them, X found John \ Pavldsoti thora, a gaulai gentlemen. t whom his ?w>op!o Rte, proud, aaa Ought to be. And then I met that lovable man, My Maryland Randall, whose name is familiar to every household, and whose welcome comes from the heart as well as from the band. And that sterling, solid son of Erin, Pat Walch, whom the peoplo of Georgia delight to honor, and will yet honor. I love this good old Georgia city for its havpy memories, and especially because Mrs. Arp was educated there, and ber education was solid-solid as a rock-and she can do a sum now in her head quicker than I can on a Blato, and is as sure in figures as an almanac. I was taken sick in Charleston once, at the Pavilion hotel, when old Mr. Butterfield was tho proprietor, and I thought I bad the yellow rover and was going tedie. So I ran sway with tho fever on rae, for I wanted to dio at home, and I reached homo and for two montha I was at the door of death, and living I did languish and languishing did live, and one day a sweet, pretty girl with beautiful hazel eyes and raven hair, came to seo me and brought mo some flowers, and as I looked in her soft, sympathetic face I rallied and determined to get well. And I did. And I'm well yet, and so is she, and her chil dren aro mine and mine are hers. BILI. A nr. Tho Leaning Tower of Pisa. Tho tower has such a strange effect on you 1 You see that the stairs are very steep in Homo places, and that tho inner wall crowds down upon you tu an un Eleasant way. The effect is a little like eing in the cabin of a ship at sea ; you realize a kind of undulating motion, with out having tho visible cause of it before your oyes. Wo stopped to rest ; a small window was at hand: we looked down into the interior of the tower. It was Uko a dctp round shaft that had been sunk slantwise ; there was just enough slant to it to bo unpleasant. We trudged on and on, and looked again. Tho tower was beginning to movo a little ; we both saw it and felt it. The walls sagged very much; it was with some difUculty that we kept from blipping out of tho door level willi tho stairs when tho tower reeled over on our side. I wonder that wo had tho courage to complete tho ascent. Towers havo fallen before now ; leaning towers aro not expected to stand auy longer than they choose to. Tho earth has sunk about tho Pisa tower, so that you go down soveral Bttqm to get lo the door on the ground floor. Ws w?rc near 'he top ; the roofs pf the city lay fur below us ; vee caught g.ddy gUmpac? of tho world fron: the opening in tho wall-the tempting doors that in vited us to step into eternity without waiting our turn. By this time tho hol low of tho tower looked like a monatrous funnel. We wero stumbling over tho Htouo stairs in nn unpleasantly suggest ho manner, when wo came to tho top cham ber, wbero tho great bella hang. Hero we breathed more freely. The big bell, weighing six tons, bungs on tho upper side of tho tower, "to windward," ns it were; thosmallor bolls take their chances on the down grade. This little fact relieved us, for we were still affected by the unsteadiness of the long, Bpirnl stair way. Whilo we woro looking ch? upon the country from the turrets above [tho bell chamber, lo I nil the bells began ringing right under our feet. The sen sation was os if the tower was about to be shaken to pieces; every stono trembled perceptibly ; tim air wan whintling about our cars; ono mau did it all I lie sprang on toonoef the bells and sot itBwinging, then leaping gayly on to another, and nt last caught the big boll to the windward and got Its thick black tonguo in motion ; eo( he skipped lightly from ono to tho other, dodging- the roaring monsters' as they, heaved, about him. Escape was impossible while this concert was in progress. Tho greon hills were about us on the inland aide ; the country waa as flat as a floor from..Pisa to the sea. Away off in the corner by the shore lay Leghorn. Should we not go to Leghorn when it lies but an hour boneo by rail? We thought lt best, and as soon as the bolls were quiet wo went down tho corkscrew stairway and came to the outer door in capit&i order. ? bed thought to r? .aive the finishing touch on the way down, but on tho contrary, having becomo some what tangled during the ascent, I bad only to descend to unravel it all, and came out precisely aa I hud entered. . TY..-.- .... ii... LJJ. a III/ fVClV vt? *u3 kililiiji? "I saw something new up in Wisconsin tho other evening," obaorved a Chicagoan who had & satchel in ^ia hand, and who was on his way home. "A patent medi clue man was Beliing something or other from a carriage in walch he had a very ?retty young woman and a gaaoliue lamp, ho lady sang one or two songa very sweetly and then the man talked and eold his nostrum at a dollar a bottle. When he had disposed of thirty or forty bottles he said : 'Now. gentlemen, before bidding you good night I will give an exhibition of the wonderful magnetic powers of my wife, who Bits here by my side. I hold in my hand a common piece of thread, Now, one of you. take hold of the end of it and walk off and thou let ali the others take hold of it, and at the signal which I will give she will take hold of *!? o otho end sui y cu trill feel the sheck Instantly.' "About 160 men end boys grasped the thread and walked off about half a block with it.

His Impression was that tho ball bad passed through his legs below h&ukneeev^)e4ttn?pietely severing ; them, tot be suddenly sank dowu, short ened, a? ho believed,, to the extent of 1 about a foot lu measurement.

Thus^he lay,, mot?oolew, among the wounded and dead, all night, coodaring to move, wbtn consciousness partially returned, Ust tho loss Of blood should be fatally increased.

'1 felt moro thankful," said he, "than I had ever felt in tho whole course of my life before. I had not a wound about me. I bad, indeed, been shot down by an immense cannon ball, but instead of passing through my Jegs, as I firmly hollered it bad, the ball had passed under my feet and bad ploughed a hole in the earth beneath at least a foot in depth, into which my feet suddenly sank, giving me. the idea that I had beon thus short* ened by the loss of my legs.
