K'rom the Athens Georgian, Oct, 18, The recent moeting in the Oity of Ohi- engo of tho Ohicago & South Atlantio Rail- rond Convention, with & viewy to so- loot o fino for a dirock road from Chica- g0 to tho Bouth Atlantio sonhoard, gives hopoful promigo that tho long-neoded conneotion diractly Statos will bomado atno distant day, The in- torests of tho peoplo of the Northwest and of the Bouth nre Intimately allied. Tho more closo~ 1y anddiractly thoyare brought toether, the more will thelr materinl welfare bo ndvanced, and in no wny moro immeadintely than by their emancl- gnuon from the thraldom in which thoy have con held for yonrs by tho railroad-monopolists | of tho Nortbern and” Enstorn States, and tho eod of mggrandizoment of ‘tho City of New ork. - Woaro hoartily glnd that the Oity of Athens was represented in this Convention by a dola- ‘gate from tho clty, Capt. A. 8, Erwin, and ons from tho Northonstorn Railroad, Presidont John W. Nicholson, Tho able report of Capt. Erwin, which will bo found elsowhoro, shows that tho peoplo of the Northwest are in onrncst in thoir desiro to con- struct o Jino to the Southorn seaconst; that the Chicago & Soutb Atlantie Railroad Company hiava made arrangoments to build the,road ; and that ono of the strongest and most influontial bank- ing houses in tho North is proparad to farolsh tho roquisito capital. The main point of disousslon was as to tho relative morits of the ronte known as the Frencl: Brond aud Ashyille line, through North and Bouth_Caroliun to Charleston, and that by the Blue Ridge sud Rabun Gap. Wo believa that the far-seeing wisdom and business anéuh.y of the Chicago & Bouth Atlantic Railroad Company will soleot tho latter, as prosonting the greatost advantagos. DBy the former, the outlet on tho soaboard would be confined to the single port of Charleston, whilo the lattor gives immediato acs cosn to Sovannah, Drunswick, Port Royal, and Charleaton, and tiaverses & much widor, richer, and more importunt section of country, com= ing and ovening, Beata freo, —Tho Rov, Dr. Stocking will preach morning and evening ot tho Church of the Epiphrny, —The Rov, I, N, Powers will otliciato at 8t, Jolin's Churcl, ~The Rov, W.
