THE DEPARTURE.

After the pleasant programme at the

cursionists rode to the depot and took the
cars (Which were specially provided for
them for FIorida.) The Mayor and Coun-
Gil. Col. Robb, the Committee of Arrange
ments, Gen. DeRussey, and many others
were present to bid them goodbye.
Speeches were made by Mr.. Porter, Mr.
Maurice, of Louisville, and Mr. Caldwell,

were given for Savannah and its glorious,

and the train moved of, bearing kind
friends, whom we trust We may meet

AT THE HOTELS.

The ScTcven, Pulaski, Marshall and
Pavilion hotels were crowed during the
entire evening. Committees met, reports
were made, and their future movements
decided upon. Among the most pleasant
of these was at the Screven House. The
Louisville delegation requested the
presence of their friend, the soldier and
Christian gentlemen, Gen. Joseph E.
Johnston. In his quiet unobtrusive man
ner he acqriesced to the call The par
lOrs and drawing rooms of the Screven
House were thrown open, and not only
the one hundred and fifty guests from
Louisville, but Savannah, Cincinnati, At
lanta, Macon, Augusta and Murfreesboro
gladly awaited themselves of the opportu
nifty of meeting this noble, brave, and
good man. The parlors of this house
were filed with brave hearts, and fair
women. The General was introduced TO
each one, when Mr.. Genet, of the Louis
vile d. Legation, spoke in a few words
their pleasure in meeting their loved
Gene iaI. Mr.. Maurice, of Louisville,
folls wed with one of his most earnest
and eloquent speeches. Then came DR..
Shs rp, of the same city, who said the en-
tire; delegation from Louisville was glad
TO meet Gen. Johnston. He said, ''YOu
are remembered by all true hearts south of
Che Ohio river, and when Savannah gives
you up cloud cries of We never WILL the
people of Kentucky win take you to their
hearts and their homes. In conclusion,
he said; GAS you go down the slope of
life, may Heavens sun sweetly kiss your
brow" In response TO this, Gen. John
ston said he was no speaker, but he
thanked all present for their cordial greet
ing, and expressed his pleasure in meeting
his friends once again; and hoped to meet
them all frequently and cordially as now.
This hotel was open till the ''wee sma'

The ProvideBce Or. l. } Press asserts
that its own State is an exception to
8 certain extent to the depopulation
now going on iu the country towns OF

interests h saved most Of the
towns. Blu Ill the Press admits
that the pictAro drawn by the Palmer
Journal Is not exaggerated, and that
statistics would reveal SlEllar facts
throughout the country districts OF
New England. We make this inter
esting extract from It's article:
This dscadenee commenced some
years since, but was almost inappre-
ciable till railroads were opened, when
the movement began on quite large
scale. Yankee forecastlng saw at the
depots the cehters Of trade; the most
stirring and enteFprIsiBg OF them set
tled there, 4oilowed BY many others
who had no clear or definite ideas be-
yoBd being in = lively place. Many
Of the latter we're labOTers; D portion
have bettered themselves, and others
had better have remained at their old
homes. Again, agricultural pursuits
have not afforded a remuneration suf-
fieieRt to satisfy the am mbition of many,
and they turned their backs upon the
couotry and driited to the villages and
cities. Agriculture clung to its old
modes Of culture, and fell behind the
average of other occupations. Though
implements and machinery were in
troduced, they could not overcome the
difficulties incident to the primary
requisite proper system OF fei;l
lizirg. But let farming come up to
the level OF other pursuits, AID the
tendency OF migration from the
country from this cause would cease
20 be operative.
Again, there has been a semi aTis-
toeTaey IN many places, cliques or
rings, against which it we hopeless
for any young man to contend. Hence
many who mere some8 hat ambitious,
aud felt piuched By the regime, have
gone elsewhere. In other fields they
have satisfied their ambition, and had
a recognition they could not hope for
at home. The article which We print
gives. as the chief cause. extravaganza
and fashion. These have had their
| effects, but they have been slight com
pared with those before alluded to-.
| The causes are more numerous than
the writer supposes, and the remedy
must be in balancing industry, max
ing agriculture pay better, with lit
tie more liberahty towards the young
men. They have been ignored in TOO
| many eases.
