The occurrence shows that it is time definite ard vigorous efforts were taken-to suppress lynchings. SENATOR TILL3LAN and Governor Fvans may have said a great deal that vas tra,- in their spcehes in Atlanta, but we think it was a great breach of te propriety of 'he occasio'i to have s.oken on the line cho-en by th in. - Thy seem to have aroused the imlig n.ui>n of th: exp)sition un:hor:tit. TPE Constitution is fin's :ed, aid most everybody is glad of it. It will not suit everybody as a natter_of course. If it pleased and suited every body, it would be a very marvelous state of affairs. Taken as a whole it is a good in-trument. We believe that a great many new features in the constitution will prove satisfact .ry. We would have omitted the ander standing clause entirely in the article on suffrage, and would have modified the homestead law3 considerably and many other things would have been done if we bad had the m.aking of it, but as already said on the whole we like the new constitution. The b dy composing the convention was a de cided improvement On legisiative bodies of recent years, and we are, therefore, not surprised to find that -their work is flavored with more con - servauIsun-we,orr,-- an~U l itical bodies for the last three or four years. ME. CLEVELAN D'S muesssge comes up to the standard of all of hislpublic ut terances. Clear, terse, strontg anid forcible it is a very able document and should be read carefally by all of our citizens interested in public affairs. The message deals chiefii with our foreign affairs anid financial condition As to the foreign affairs the average citiz3u is not specially interested. The President's.treatment of the financial question is very able, and we think should be 'convincing. lHe shows clearly how the greenbacks are used to deplete the treasury o f gold. It ctnnot be redeemed or cancelled, and hence it goes the rounds serving the purpose of drawing gold from the treasury. How long such a state of affairs can continue no one car, tell. The Presi dent proposes that the greenback notes be retired. His suggestion as to the national banks will not be gene rally approved. We believe that State banks regulated and controlled by strict laws, with the tax on them re moved, will afford the best memis of increasing the circulating medium and * giving it elasticity. OUR TRIP TO ATLANTA. ANr. Editor: If you think your read * er3 -wil1 be interested in this, after *~.havijg read the very excellent letter -eof your local editor on the Exposition, -you~ may publish it. * .. Wife and myself went by Augusta - fron choice, arriving there about 5 p. m. Monday 25th November, nIt., -where we spent the night with friends. - Taking the Georgia Railroad train Tuesday morning we reached Atlanta about 4 p. in., several hours late, on *account of an hour's wait on the Coast Line at Augusta, and a train of ten coaches all heavily laden. There are many points of interest along this fine road of which I would like to speak I will venture only a few: Crawfordsvi;le, the borne of Alex ander H. Stephens, Georgia's great sutesman, where stands the late resi dence of this great and good man, known a.s "Liberty Hall ;" also a fina monument to his memory. Then the little town of Camnak, where '.a road brznches off to Macon about eighty - milas distant. Camak, you will re member, is. to be the- terminus of the Wadesboro, Winnsboro and Oamnak Railroad, if Mr. McMaster can get it through, Greensboro, a neat lit: le town, is about midway, being 83 miles 1 from Augusta: and 88 wiles from At lanta. But the point of greatest in tera.t to me is Stone Mountain, a mass of solid granite rising hundreds of feet above the su'rounding country, and from a distar.ce seeming to kiss ~ :he skies. I had passed it both int if Chickamanga in 1863, but I must lave passed it in the night going, and -eturning I was wounded in the leg tud had to rem tin on my seat in the -ir. This is the only way I can ac :ount. for my never having seen it )efore. I am sure if I had ever seen it the impression would never have been erased from my mind. I have seen a good deal of mountain scenery in Viaginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Tennessce, but none of it im pressed me as Stone Mountain. On reaching Atlanta we went direct to 236 Ell;s street, the residence of my nephew, Duane A. Russell, where we had been invited to make our home, and our sojourn there with our kins folk was indeed a pleasant one, the people and the weather seemed to have conspired to make us happy. Atlanta is a big city, but perhaps it is the most awkwardly laid off of any city I ever visited, .Charleston not ex cepted. Even Peachtree, the main thoroughfare, is a puzzle to any stran ger, and I defy any one not acquainted with the place to know just wk en he is on it and when he is of, unless he ascertains his whereabouts and takes his stand or sits down. It twists and bends and eplits open, and now you are on it and now you are somewhere else. We went on the Exposition grounds Wednesday and Thursday, and while we do not claim to have seen a'l that was on exhibition, we think we took in a'-out as much as any other two pairs of eyes could have done in the same length of time. Were I to under take to specify all-even if I could recollect it, your paper woul i not hold it, nor would your readers endure it. I will venture only a comparative few. Our own South Carolina exhibit is no insignificant affair, indeed it is second to very few in minerals, fruits, veg tables, phosphate rock, granite and field crops. I felt a little pride (if tha is the word) when I looked through it. The California exhibit of fruits and vegetables, melons, etc., is a marvel, and so neatly put up in jars and cans, plainly labellcd. Just imagine onions (white silverskins) as large as the crown of a man's hat, pears about the size of your head, peaches that will weigh perhaps a pound or mere, water muelons weighing about one bundred pounds, squashes and pumpkins weigh iog far up in the scale i.car the two hundred pound mark, and you have some idea of the grand scale upon which the California fruits and vege tables are grown. Louisiana, Florida and other S:ate; have also fine exhibits of these and other articles. The display in the mineral and forestry building from numbers of States is wonderful, the house itself, built of logs of different kinds of trees and upon a large scale, is unique in its grandear and magnifi cence. There you see wood of almost every conceivable variety, in blocks, logs, and sawed into slabs, in the rough and dressed; also pertrified woods that are indescribably beautiful, sawed off in blocks, showing the grain; minerals of every variety, from nug gets of gold as large as a man's fist to huge boulders of granite and coal. Machinery hall is also a curiosity. Immense steaur engines and electric dynamos are in motion, driving count Ia machines, constantly turning out [reiprouu sxwm - tw-r.m -. almost anything in tbe line of metals nd fabrics. The Southern Railway Company has a reiarkab:e display of minerals, stones and woods in its building, which have been collected along the line of its roads. There I saw a frame made of our pieces of wood sawed from logs hauled to the mill from some battle fields of the late war. In the centre of each piece of .wood is a lead bullet, which in sawing up the logs was fonnd. The wood is nicely dressed and jointed and the balls still imbed ded, having been sawed through and dressed with the wood. In the government building are some rare relies. . There we saw the saddle upon which Ge t. Winfield Scott rode into the City of Mexico in 1846. There also we saw two brass cannon captured in the Revolutionary war, and two old flint and steel muskets used in the same war, and a kettle drum. Of course we saw the won derful exhibit of fishes, which was the observed of all observers. The Plant railroad system also has a large and varied exhibit of plants, fruits, birds, animals and minerals. We went chroutdh their coal mine by the light of lanterns. In the old Confederate relic building we Eaw Jeff Davis' cradle. tho wed ding dreas of a daughter of Jno. C. Ca'houn, Beast Butler's famous and brutal order in regard to the women of New Orleans, and scores of other things of intetest to one who took part in the late unpleasantness. I cannot venture to describe the mechanics and fine arts display; it is beyond my ability. One thing of great interest to my wife was a section of natural forest from Pennsylvania, representing a rocky bill surrounded by a swamp; -in the swamp and upon the rocks and perched upon the natural fre4t trees are numerous ducks, owls, hawks, crows, woodpeckers, eagles, wild turkeys and various other birds of large and small feather, and ani mis crom the little ground squirrel, cat s.quirrel and rabbit on up to the po -cupine, the deer, the fierce panther, hohling down a fine buck with one paw, while his fierce and wicked eyes glare at you as if he would spriog tp mu you, while the blood oozes from the Jeer's throat where he has lacerat ed it with his horrid teeth, and from his lair in a cavern amongst the rocks an ugly black bear peeps slyly out, vvtching his chance to seize .some uniwary and helpless animal. for his re. Several rr.ttlesnakes lie coiled t, t:e foot of the hill. These ar e all real animals, but of course they have passed through the hands of the tai lermist. But I must desist. We saw the Uberty bell of coarse. And now if you will indu'ge ma a ew lines fmither I will close.
