A GEORGIA SCENE.
Experience of u Blacksmith
\ with "a Me th0dist Preach

AT the entrance Of one Of
those gorges, or gaps, In the
great Appalachian chain of
mountains in their passage
Iacross the northern portion Of
Georgia, a blacksmith had
erected his forge in the early
settlement Of that region by
the Anglo-American race, and
drove a thrifty trade in the
way Of facing axes, and point
ing plows for the settlers, and
and .shoeing horses for way
faring people, in their transit
through the country to examine.
gold mines and land. AS he
was no ordinary parsonage in
the affairs of his neighborhood,
and will make conspicuous
figure in this narrative, some
account of his peculiarities viii
not be uninterestlng. Having
acted through life on a homely
maxim of his own, pay up as
you so up,' he acquired some
money, and was out Of debt;
and consequently enjoyed the
glorious privilege of being in
dependent in a degree that is
unknown to many who occupy
| a larger portion of the worlds
attention than himself. He
was q burly, we'll looking man
| of twenty-five, just young
enough to feel that all his
faculties, mental and physical,
had reached their greatest de-
velopment; just old enough to
have amassed sufficient exper-
lince of men and things to make
the past serve as fngerpost
to his future journey through
life. With a shrewd, but open
bold, honest look there was a
| gleeful expression in the cor
ners of his eyes, that spoke of
fun. The laughing devil in
his eye was not a malicious
spirit however. His physical
| conformation was that which
combined strength with agility;
and if be had been fated to
have been a contemporary of
his prototype Vulcan, there can
be no doubt but the Lemnian
blacksmith would have allotted
to him a front forge in his es-
| adjustment, to act as sort
of pattern card, and to divert
a public gaze from his own
game leg to the fair proper
| tions of his foreman. aa .
| Now although Ned Forgeron,
| for such was the name he had
Inherited from some Gallo
lancestor, was a good natured
man, yet the possession of great
masculine strength, and courage
and the admiration which a
successful exercise of these
powers never fails to command,
had somewhat spoiled him.
Without meaning to inJure any
mortal, he had managed never
theless, to try his prowess on
Isundry of his neighbors, and
from the success which had al
ways crowned his honest efforts
in that way, had unconscious
fly acquired the character of a
bully.
With q very few early adj
vantages of elementary educa-
ton, he had nevertheless, at
different periods, collected a
mass Of heterogeneous informa-
ton, which he was very fond
of displaying .on occasions. -

that the subscription on their part should be

Every taxpayer in those counties will be in
terested with you ia protecting the property Of
the road from local taxation. It has been sug-
gestcd that the property of Virginia may not
hereafter be safe in the hands Of her future ad-
illustrators But the instincts of the negro
are honest They came forward themselves
and voted the inyiolability of the public debt
of Virginia. Your money will be as safe in
the Y alley OF Virginia as In the Valley of the
Muskinguln. How far the names on this peti-
tion-the names of the millionaires of your
| city-will influence your Judgment, he could
not say. He hoped the people of the Valley
would be permitted to come to their gates with
their caravans of treasure.
COL. HARNAN's REMARKS.
Col NJ G. Harman president of the Vir-
| ginia Valley Railroad Company, said he had
made arrangements shortly to extend to this
council, to the business men of Baltimore, and
to the press an invitation to visit the towns OF
Stanton and Lexington. He wanted them to
see FOR themselves whether the country was
what it had been represented to them, and he
wanted to show them some old Virginia hospi-
tality, in return Tor the many attentions they
had received from the citizens Of Baltimore.
| Col. Hartman also spoke In relation to the
contemplated road, and said the people of Bal
timorc would have once considered it great
| boon, if it had been offered to them, to build
the whole road.
After some conversation the meeting al
journed.
