On Ihursday, the 25th ultimo, q party of
gentlemen, in company with tho writer. loft
our quiet town of Walhalla for Westminster
to pay flying visit to the ''Gate City" Of the
South.
Alter waiting patiently for several hours at
Westminster, and enjoying the choruses of
the band of frogs in tho village pond, we
boarded tho long and handsome train of cars
about 3 O'Clock Friday morning and we soon
found ourselves Georgia bound.
There wore some ten or twelve coaches in
the train, oil of which were crowded to over, |
flowing, and with difficulty We obtained seats.
In short time wo crossed Tuealoo and
Mother-Soil, with oil that are near and dear
to us, wero left behind, and tho tears of sorrow
was about trickling down our ohooks when ,he
happy thought camo to us that we wero soon
to return. Onward wo sped through moun-
tain aod over valley with such rapidity and
sometimes at such height that our iournev
seemed to have become an aerial one. There
had boon no rain along the road and tho dust
was saffocating, and this was ono occasion
shas a. our dostor was in it's proper place.
Tho crops looked very bad, both corn md
cotton. with fow exceptions in low lands. Tho
long dry spoil seemed to hayo dono grant
injury along tho whole line.
Passing station after station and our numbor
increasing oil along and enjoying the company
OF friend Morpheus now and thon when wo
o'uld' wo at last reached our destination IN
perfect safety after about six hours rido.
Our first oaro after landing was to procure
odglpg' which we had no difficulty in obtain.
