OUR GEORGIA LETTER.
Georgia News-Macon and Knoxville Rail
road.
MILLEDGEvILLE, GEORGIA,
nril & 1870

MILLEDGEvILLE, GEORGIA,
April s. 1872.
We are having continuation of the re-
markably rainy season which has consti-
tuted the style of the weather for the past
several months. And in regard to tenn
perature, the present spring is the coolest
and most backward we have ever known
here. The indications are that the mania
for planting large crops of cotton in this
region has not yet been cured by sad eXpe-
rience. Until the grain culture increases
very largely, we shall have no prosperity;
We spent yesterday in Macon, and had
the pleasure of taking by the hand, at the
excellent Brown House, (the incest hotel
in the South, your worthy fellow citizen,
Mr.. Frank Scott His report of Knoxville
was well-pleasing to the well-wishers of
your city.
We attended, at Macon, one of the Read
ing and Recitation performances OF truly
wonderful man-Prof Bonham-whose
family is from your neighboring county of
Blount, where numerous relatives OF his
family vet reside. He is now citizen of
Oregon, and his brother is Chief Justice of
that remote, Pacific shore sister State. He
will give the beautiful land of East Ten
nessee, the home of his ancestry, visit in
the latter part of this month, and we are
sure no finer intellectual treat has been
had by East Tennesseeans for long time
than they will then have. One feature in
Mr. Bonham's Rotations deserves all
praise their moral tone is pure and ele-
waited, and no lady will risk being put to
the blush by hearing him.
A newspaper-a daily-is about to be is
sued in Macon. The rivals of the old 1ct-
egroph and Messenger have hitherto sue
cumbed before the great popularity of that
able journal, but we shall see the result OF
the new enterprise. Its tone will be Con-
sentative or Democratic.
We had glimpse of President De Graf
fenreid, of the Ocmulgee and North Geor-
gia Railroad, and learned from him thai
that great enterprise would certainly be
pushed forward. Its construction will be
of vast Importance to your region as wei
as to ours. 1.-The road will be built Wis
Ducktown, Tellico Plains and Madison
vile, along an independent route all tho
way to Knoxville, probably crossing the
Holston river at Louisville, or at the
mouth of Little river. SO we conjecture
at least.
We had the pleasure of railway jour
ney last evening with q son of the lat
General r. +. Lee, very pleasant and &C
complished young gentleman, who bears
his fathers distinguished name.
How does Mr. Fisher, your admirable
artist, progress with his great painting o
the scene at Dungeness, Light Horse
Harry Lees tomb?
Rain! rain! 1t patters against m,
window, and the clouds darken the day.

POLITICS IN UPPER EAST TENNESSEE.
From Warrington County.

EDITORS CHRONICLE Every other
man in Washington county is candidate
or expects to be, and if Misunderstanding
makes one popular, they will all be elect
ed. The Republicans held meeting at
noon yesterday when the Court adjourned
for dinner, that is now in session here,
and appointed delegates to the Nashville
Convention. The delegates were instruct
ed to go for Grant and Maynard, and /
suppose the instructions speak the voice
of every Republican in Upper Fast Ten
nessee without exception. A resolution
was offered, and carried without dissent
ing word, strongly aud earnestly endors-
ing the honest, patriotic course of our no.
BILE Senator, William G.. Brownlow. We
believe his honor, integrity and true pat
riotism the brightest of the bright.
After the Convention had finished its
work, Maj. A. III. Pettibone was loudly
called for. He came to the stand and
entertained the crowd for about fifty min
utes, with his matchless, inimtable elo-
~quence. He defended the Republican
party in the most heroic style, as he is 80
we'll qualified to dc, and the people applaud
ed with vim and good will. The Major is
talked of az candidate for Congress, and
if he should get the nomination, and
would accept it and take the stump with
his usual pluck and determination, there
would not be enough of the Democrats who
had made the canvass, to make decent
constable. The Democrats are awful hun
cry. They are already offering about two
candidates in every county for the Con-
gressional race, and about half of them
say they will run the race through despite
the convention. Mcclellan and Haynes
are the candidates from Sullivan on the
Democratic side, Earnest and Reeves from
this county and Ingersoll and Reeves from
Greene and so on from every county but
the report this evening is that Senter will
be the candidate, and that he has already
been nominated by Jim White and others
at Rogersville.
The people are talking already a great
deal about the county, State and National
elections, but still the farming operations
go bravely on. Wheat looks splendidly.
All are done sowing oats, and corn has
been planted. Now is the busy time.

in the State churches, and suspended the
law of compulsory attendance at school
whenever the teacher is an infallibilist.

commerce, aud less than has been, perhaps,
pro6tably given TO a single railroad, but
how immeasurably higher in It's scope and
how much grander in its iar-reachng results
BY so much as the brain Is superior to the
pocket does this measure challenge favor,
We seek for Americans that knowledge and
virtue which shall give to them the foremost
rank among men, Such rank is the chief
luster of nations. and is created, not by one
man sparkling amid benighted thousands,
but BY the masses polished and resplendent
in the aggregate. No one, however humble,
should be without some ambition to improve
himself, but citizen of the United States is,
also, bound to improve and carry onward the
good name Of his whole country.
The character Of nation is determined
by its autecedents. To-day is the father Of
tomorrow. We make the present, and are
therefore responsible for the future. Here
we plant the acorns, assured that oaks will
grow. Here We modestly lay the foundation
upon which superstructure will rise to the
glory Of future generations. Let us show
that Columbus did not discover a world toe
large for free people. A great part Of
legislative work accomplshes its utmost pur.
pose and is obsolete at the end Of the year,
but here is work that We may fondly hope
will endure for ages There will be no i'm
mediate splendor, but spark will be Lighted
which may illumine the whole land and lif
a cloud from the pathway of the sons of toll
regardless of ancestry Or race, that will opeI
to them higher service and honor, give Il
republican institutions more enlightened
and enduring support, and make natiol
which shall not only deserve to live, but de
serve to be immortal.
