Interview OF . Georgia Delegation
with secretary Harlan.

New YORK, Sept 18.---The Herald says q
number of leading men of Georgia on q visit
to the national capital last week, had very
interesting conference with the Secretary Of
the Interior, Mr.. Harlan, and the Commission.
er of Agriculture, Mr.. Newton. A Georgian
stated there was great destitution among their
people, and great demand for books contain.
ing recent laws of the United States. The Sc.
cretary informed them that all through the re.
bellion quotas of documents for all the States
were printed, with the same regularity as pre-
viously. Those for the rebel States had been
carefully stored away and would, now that the
national authority had been restored, soon be
distributed.
The Georgia gentlemen are pleased with the
results Of their visit in all respects, and repre-
sented to the Secretary that the people gene.
rally in their State regarded the issue of war
as fully settled. They considered slavery COM
pletely dead, and were desirous of being again
able to take their proper position in the Union.
They said that recently there had been much
improvement in the relations of planters and
negroes. On first acquiring their freedom the
latter, in the exuberance Of joy, were disposed
to abandon their rural employments and flock
to the town; but now they have generally re-
sumed their former occupation on the planta-
tons, and are working industriously.
With the Commissioners of Agriculture the
Georgians have perfected arrangements for the
distribution of seeds in their State.

FATAL ACCIDENT.

Thursday afternoon about 8 O'Clock, as the
down freight train was coming through Saint
Anthony, train tender named Andrew Welch,
who resides on Fourth street near Sibiey, in
this city, was terribly mashed between two
cars, and SO seriously injured that he died in a
couple of hours afterwards. --I d. ..sEa s.,l
Welch was coupling the cars together. One
of them was under pretty good headway, and
by some means Welch got his body between
the buffers. The momentum of the cars almost
cut his body in two, just above the hips. BE
was placed on the cars and brought to this
city. Surgical aid was of no avail, however
and he died soon after arriving home. .r.
Welch was about 80 years of age, and leaves
wife and child, in destitute circumstances.
He had been employed on the train ever since
the train has been in operation, and is said to
have been an industrious and intelligent man.

Grand Match Game Between the

THE SCENE CLOSES WITH A
FRIENDLY BANQUET.

From the Daily Of Thursdsy, 2lst.
The grand match game between the Nsrth
Star Base Ball Club of St. Paul and vermillion
Club Of Hastings, came off yesterday at the
grounds Of the former Club on Pine street. The
Vermillion Club gentlemen came up on the
Mcclellan in the morning. and were entertain
ed at the international Hotel. The forenoon
was rainy and unpleasant, but about noon the
weather cleared up. The game commenced at
tive o'clock. A very large crowd Of spectators
were present, and great interest was felt in the
game. --..-.s.., "a. sea-,ss
: The ground had been carefully prepared by
the North Star Club. The bases had been
packed with sawdust, which made the footing
pretty good, Notwithstanding the rain in the
forenoon. 3fi 51 LcuC js6a'ts.1.a
The members of the Vermillion Club were
dressed in avery neat uniform Of flannel-pants
blue, shirts white, belt and white cap. The
uniform of the North Star Club is blue flannel
throughout, with white caps and black belt.
In physique the two clubs were about equal
and the game was very closely contested,
Some fine playing was done on each side. and
the spectators remained very patiently to the
close of the game, some three hours. q It was
interrupted once by heavy shower Of rain, but
even this could not drive away the lookers-on.
The following is the score of the game: iiasd

Club were again the losers. But they played
excellently, and against any but such really
splendid Club as the North Star, would have
succeeded -. wax. ..el ga. O.
In the evening. at ~ O'Clock, North Star
Club entertained their guests at the InteEna-
tional Hotel. with fine banquet, got up in
the usual elegant style Of that House. We
have never been at more pleasant entertain
ment. The best feeling prevailed, and all en-
joyed it greatly. Song and jest, speeches and
champagne all circulated without limit.
The Vermliion Club gentlemen went down,
on the Itasca last night, well pleased, as they
warmly expressed themselves, with the man.
ner in which they had been entertained. They
are a most excellent and clever set one and
all. 1t has never been our good fortune to
meet gentlemen more deserving the name, in
every particular, and we hope they win again
visit our city at no distant day. ,.,a..s d ~.

A Grand Project.

The merchants Of Chicago gave the dis
tinguished English capitalists grand
banquet last Saturday. The speeches
sbounded in "mutual admiration " of each
other and of their respective nations. Mr..
AcHRNRY, one of the party, an American
born, but long resident Of England, and
an adviser of the capitalists, made a
speech, during which the following mag
nifcent project was disclosed:
sion of railways, confined himself to the hope
that sooner or later we might take him to
New York without a change Of cars. Iwould
tell that gentleman that we are prepared to
do more than that. Cheers We are pre-.
pared and determined to carry double track,
broad guage, railway from New York to
Saint Louis and Chicago. [Continued cheer
ing. And we are determined to introduce
some other Improvements in this connec-
ton. We hope to be able within limited
time to send out four express trains from each
Of these cities to the east. I believe it is a
great mistake that only two are now sent. We
are prepared also to promise at no distant day
to carry produce from Chicago to New York,
under forfeiture, within five days, Icheers1 and
we are prepared TO promise to DO that at q
much lower rate of freight than is now charg-
ed. CONTINUED cheering. And think we
can do it throughout the year at large profit
to ourselves-without which we would not un.
dertake it Laughter lat 80 much of q reduc.
ton from the present rates as believe will
amount on this years grain of Illinois to $780,
900. These are words, not deeds, but the
distinguished engineer-in-chief, and the eapi-
talists associated with him were satisfied with
the CSC, ,000, 600 he had distributed in the last
four years, and this he regarded as sufficient
foundation for saying that the above projects
would be accomplished. TCheers Ho

Great Revival Of Trade.

From the New York Herald, Sept. Is.
Now that the war is over, and the South
and North are being brought into harmo.
NOUS union again through the wise restor.
ative policy Of President johnson, the old
channels Of trade are opening once more
with extraordinary promise. New Orleans.
St. Louis, Louisville, and all tue other
towns on the great rivers running through
and bordering the South, are at Che Dres.
ent time experiencing q surprising revival
of trade. In New Orleans it is yerv rre.
markable. We are informed by persons
recently from that city that the ieyee and
warehouses look much as they did ia former
times, crowded with bales Of cotton and
packages of merchandise, and alive With
the noise Of commerce. Nor is fh;s 70. 70.
turning prosperity confined to the Mis-
sissippi Valley. The cities on the At.
lantic seaboard, as Savannah and Obarles-
ton, and in the interior, as RICHMOND.
Augusta and Atlanta, are all feeline It.
In fact, 1t is running through numerous
courses to every village and the remotest
spots. One Of tho largest dry goods
houses here informed ns that the orders
from some Of these cities and especially
rom Augusta, were unprecedented. There
is remarkable increase of trade with
the western States also-greater, indeed.
than was ever known before.
