Description Of Atlanta.

The town, before the war; says an army CORES
pondent, was important merely as 11ourishhs
business and railroad centre. 1t was the county
town of Fulton county, Georgia. The 1nhap-
itants of the surrounding plantations came there
for Justice and for trade. Large quantities OF
cotton and grain found here either Market or
shipment for the seaports The people were ac-
tive and INDUSTRIOUS and met with merlted
growth in wealth.
There are three railroads which terminate at
Atlanta-the Georgia road connecting Atlanta
with Anousta j: the Macon and Western road to
Macon. and the Western and Atlantic road to
Chattanooga, Tennessee. A few miles south OF
Atlanta. branches the Langrange railroad, con-
Meeting Atlanta with West Point, on the Chatta-
hoochee river, at the Alabama hne' seventy Two
miles distant. BY means of these railroads At
lanta in former times was connected WIN all
PARTS of the United States, and until recently
was the greatest railroad point in the hands OF
the enemy.
The CITY was laid out in 1916, and has now be-
come one of the most populous in Georgia. In
1860 it's population consisted OF about twelve
thousand resident inhabitants, and since the war
has increased to almost double that number,
the surplus being made up of Government OIL
cials and employees. The city contains several
hotels a court house, and some fine blocks Oh
buildings. Since the war it has become an ex-
tensiye Government depot and manufacturing
centre. Here are located the principle shops o.
the railroads joining here; the most extensive
rolling mill in the South, foundriesand machine
shops. pistol factory shops for the manufacture
of miscellaneous Government articles, ana tW'
