Southern Georgia in the Atlanta
Cotton Exposition.

The Savannah, Florida and Western Rail.
way Company having, through its enter
prising General Manager, Col. II. s.
Haines, secured ample space Ia the Alta nta
Cotton Exposition for exhibition OF the
products OF Southwest Georgia, has gone
to work with commendable zeal to make
that exhibition creditable to the great sec
ton # is to represent. With this view, and
for the more rapid and eff .ieut execution
OF the design, Col. Hines, by Geographic
communication with the editors OF the
local press, and other prominent citizens
along the line OF his road, requested a
conference on the subject with them In this
city. This request was promptly responded
TO, and We had the pleasure Of seeirg a
number OF the press and other representa-
tiyes OF that section in the city yesterday,
WHO proceeded TO the office of Col. H4ines,
organized, and adopted the resolutions we
present In another c dunn.
Outside Of the regular order OF business,
for the intern alton OF the gentlemen pres
ent and the people interested along the line
of the road and It's branches, Colonel Haines
made gratifying statement Of the condition
and future prospects OF the Savannah,
Florida aGi Western Railway, assuring
them OF great and important extensions and
connections ia the near IN ure. The road
from Live Oak to Clear Water Harbor, two
hundred and eighty miles, now being rapidly
located, and the westward extension from
Bainbhdge to connect with the great South
ern Pacific through New Orleans, Mobile
and Pensaeols, are to be pushed with all
the capital OF the company and the well
known energy Of Colonel HaInes. He is
confident that the western extension across
the Chsttahoochee will be finished up within
the next six months, the surveyors aud
graders to enter upon the work in very
few weeks. Colonel Haines expresses great
confidence IA tie ability OF the company to
complete the extensions named and supply
the missing links between Savannah and
Mobile and Clear Water Harbor within the
space OF two years.

ments, with reliable statistics Of the bust
ness Of Savannah during the year. This
exhibit Is entirely satisfactory, as show
ing the growth and prosperity Q; the city,
and as demonstrating the fact that Savan
mas is in the Enjoyment OF a diversified
and lucrative trade and industry which Is
established on 3 firm basis. The cotton re-
ceipts for the year were $50. Az bales upland
and Is $50 bales sea island against IS. OBJ
bales upland and 1l,64 bales sea
the preceding year, and the expec-
tstions, well founded, are that the
year We have inst entered upon viii show
far greater increase. Savannah can there
fore Justly claim to De the frat cotton port
on the south Atlantic coast.
The outlook IS very encouraging, and the
complete realization Of the predic-
lions Of year OF even greater
prosperity nav BE confidently sntici-
psted. We have been blessed with
good health throughout tie summer,
and with the exception Of the recent terri
be storm, our community has been spared
any serious sfi'ction. New enterprises
have been insugu-atei aad carried into sue
cessful operation, general trade hes thrivedi

We commend these facts 70 the cOnside-
ration OF our readers and the general pub
lie, and extend our congratulations to our
merchants and business men upon the very
ereditahle and satisfactory exhibit Of the

The Capitol.

The State House Commissioners were
in session, at New Orleans, on last Sat
urday and Oh Monday. AS the report of
the proceedings is yet incomplete, we
await fuller information before giving a
synopsis of the proceedings. We fnd,
however, that Senator Hagan, who, it
will be remembered had become disgust
ed at the rejection Of bis mansard roof
arrangement, has re-appeared after his
prolonged absence from the meetings,
to find that everything has gone wrong.
He is going in for reform at the eleventh
hour when the Commission that has for
so long been deprived of his wisdom, has
put the Capitol in a fair way to be com
pleted, i'll q manner too, that will rem
der the edlfice, one of the most commo-
dious and stylish in the South. Senator
Hagan's achievements will consist in
having brought about the discharge of
one or two faithful men, who have con-
Quoted the work of reconstruction as adj
vantageously to the State as it has been
creditable to their zeal, honesty and in
telligence. This saving Of few hun
dreds Of dollarswon'tc complete the build
ing by jug full. One thing very GER
tain is, that had the SenatorspIan been
adopted which consisted in racing the
walls to within twelve feet of the
ground, the bulk Of the money which
has put the edifice nearly in condition to
be occupied would have been spent in
tearing down and rebuilding walls, that
heavy artillery alone could knock down.

The entertainment given by the Con-
federate Memorial Association has
proven complete success IN every
way. The amateurs who delighted the
audience by their songs musical per-
formances and recitations are grouped
in a general expression of praises. After
each evenings programme, the young
people amused themselves by dancing,
while the older ones, enjoyed the re-
treshments which the ladies had ar
ranged with the utmost taste. A hand
some amount has been realized. To
the ladies and gentlemen who took so
much trouble in organizing the very
successful entertainment great praise is
accorded. We regret very much that
circumstances which prevented our at
tendance, precluded minute descrip-
ton of the very interesting performan-
ces.

The survey by Engineer Dickerson
from Muss0n to the mouth of the Cour-
tableau, on the Atchafalaya river, has
been finished and the result il q COM
plete refutation of the assertions in re-
gard to the topography of the country,
so literally made by outside parties.
The distance is twelve miles, of which
six miles is solid cane brake and the re-
nainder open country. The average
embankment required is five feet, and
there is but 1850 feet of openings re1uir-
ed for bayous, folks, sloughs and swamp
channels. The soil is red clay, slightly
mixed with alluvion, Alternating with
stretches of land of which sand forms
preponderating component. Timber of
all kinds generally found growing in al
luvial SOIL, IS III abundance. The survey
shows that the line of the Mid-Louisiapa
across this section will not be dif1icnIt
or expensive to construct,
