THE OLD CAMP GROUND.
The Progress of the South by
- One Who Has Been Absent
Seventeen Years ,
Industries That Have Boon
Completed Within the Post
Ton Years.
Corre'pondence Cincinnati GMctlce.
BuiiKiKi'OUT , Ala. , After 17 yoais
I nm visiting the old camp-ground.
Seventeen years ngo I stood on
these red hills mid intiiniclatcd the
solid South , and to-day 1 cannot find
tlio "historic spot. " Despite the
heat 1 walked nil day among the
licntls of the Tcnncssco and ] ) ointH of
the mountains , hut .all is changed.
On the ridge where our camp stood ,
where Ihero was then not n shrub ,
the timber is now forty fcot high and
barely passable to ft scared dog. J5o-
low it the slopes , then worked to mud
or dust by tramping regiments or
army guiles , nro now giecn with
springing corn , while and red with
clover tops , or beautiful with grass
nnd flowers. But far beyond are the
name blue mountains , the Tennessee
sparkles even more beautifully than
it did , nnd ever nnd nroiind the old
camp-ground is the same tabluo sky
nnd soft air.
Till ! VAM.HV PKOIT.K
Are greatly changed , however. Up
what was then n wild gorge now runs
A railroad ; land near hero is held at
$50 an acre ; coal mines mid iron fur
naces are not far away , and several
now nnd neat villages adorn the vi
cinity. Hero I did my last service ;
hcnco , in September , 18(51,1 ( departed -
od for Indianapolis , where I gladly
"shucked" the uniform , took a re
ceipt for my musket , drew my pay ,
nnd left the work of saqing the Union
to "more able men. " And of nil the
citizens I know hereabout in thai long
mnnmor I can find but ono , nnd ho Is
70 years old , and hai lately married n
young wifol lint ho confidontiallv
admits that ho is not as rebellious as
ho as.
I began this letter hind end first , so
I will .take things in order of our
progress , go back to the
8KI.MA , UOMK AND PAI.TOM ! IIAIUIOAD ,
On which wo found nine iron furna
ces , all put U ] ) within ton years. Tak
ing them in reverse order that is ,
from Ilomo southward they are :
1. The llidgo Vnlloy , Georgiawhich
makes car-wheel iron , warm blast.
2. The j-Ktiia , Georgia ; car-whool
iron , cold blast.
3. Tecumseh , Alabama ; iron.Vil -
Jard Warner's furnace , previously de
scribed.
4. Tlio Stonewall , Alabama ; hot
blast.
G. Hock Run , Alabama ; warm blast ;
turns out car-wheel iron. Belongs to
John M. Boss of Ft. Woyno , Ind.
C. The two furnaces nt Woodstock ,
Alabama ; warm blast ; turn out car-
wheel iron.
7. The Alabama furnace ; warm
blast , car-wheel iron. '
8. The Shelby furnaces ; warm
bloat , car-whool iion.
9. Tlio Brassfiold. There nro two
furnaces , of which one has just blowed
in ; the other has been idlosomo time ,
and wo could not learn that anything
like n revival was in progress with it.
With these , the Birmingham works ,
nnd some others , Alabama lias in
creased her iron production 1)00 ) per
cent , in ton years. Her growth has
licoii steady , not too rapid , nnd lias
never had a setback since it fairly
ntartod in 1870. From Birmingham
abound by Montgomery , Atlanta and
western North Carolina , the central
south is now filled with the idea that
Lor redemption is to bp by manufac
turing , I'nd her motto is , "Less cotton
and a more diversified industry. "
Among other fuanacos in Alabama
which wo could not visit I hoard most
frequent mention of the Ilo\md
Mountain furnace on the Coosa , liow
in active operation. Abe the Corn
wall , just now idle , and the Edwards
furnace on the A. G. S. railroad a
coke burner , turning out first-class
foundry and mill iron. At
OXMOHK ,
on the S. & N. railroad , Hix miles
south of Birmingham. Many Cincin
nati mon are interested , nnd the en
terprise there is everywhere spoken of
in the south as a "real Yankee town. "
Two hotblast coke furnaces are there
turning out foundry and mill iron ,
and as I looked on the roaring chim
neys and lively workers from the car
window I found it difficult to realize
that I was in what wo have so long
considered the old , slow , sleepy state
of Alabama.
The question of a true magnetic
iron ore in sufficient amount in Ala
bama is furiously discussed. Geiu W.
Warner says : "Many specimens to
been found , but wo am not say ot
whether there is enough to amount to
Anything. " Mr. Debardlobon , of the
great Pr.itt mine , near Birmingham ,
insists that it can be had in HO
quantities , and Mr. T. T. Hillumii , of
tlio Alice furnace , Birmingham , agrees
with Gen. Warner. Mr. llillman , by
the way , bears an historic name in the
iron lino. His father waa the
original of the firm of heU.
Hillman & fi ons , of the Ten-
noBsce rolling works , which were
located , however , just over the
line in Kentucky , on tke Cumberland
river. They made the noted "Hill-
man boiler iron , " familiar to all river
and iron men from Pittsburg to Now
Orleans. Established there in 1812 ,
the Hillmnns ran the concern till 1878 ,
when it passed to ether hands , nnd
ono of the sons came to Birmingham.
Mr. William Vann claims to have developed -
veloped a scam of thu true magnectio
ore near Trassvillo , on the Alabama
Southern ; and Mr. Henry Doppy , of
Xiohigh Gap , Pa. , has purchased ex
tensively of the reported seam. Mean
while the nix BcsBomcr steel com
panies of this country hold fast mto
their monopoly in the Thomas & Gil-
Christ patent and the is iilgi
, question agi
tated whether ono of them will not
locate in Alabama. Birmingham
thinks BO , but I don't.
To sum up Alabama contains 32-
462,080 acres , of which 20,030,902
are still in virgin forest ! In ether
wordsin 1880 Bovcn-tentlis of all the
State was in timber. So it is no old
worn out country. The railroad com-
liinatiim now gives railroad faro ;
'Liverpool to TuBcaloosa , $30 ; Now
York to TuBcaloosa , gl'J.

Well , yoii woultl not Imvo thought so
if you had mot them in battle or no

endured in' 18(51-55. ( One-fifth of

the Stnto came out of the war with
10,000 amiaro miles of desolation nnd

woman's description of Pittsbnrg :

city nmused them with n boat race on
thu Oostcnnula , n business parade and
ether pisplnys. Tlio draymen got up
a very creditable display. Nearly nil
of thoin wore colored , and to the lloo-
Hior eye it looked n little odd to see
black marshals dashing about on blood
ed horses , black musicians , a wagon
full of colored ladies in character
dress , and hero nnd there n white
drayman like n spot on the procession.
The banners stated that Ilomo had
bought nnd worked or shipped 108-
000 bales of cotton this commercial
ycnr. The city also boasts of having
the best water works in the southland
is generally a regular metropolis of
Georgia Yankees. I was much pleased
with the general' appearance of the
Georgia editors , whoso convention I
attended for ono clay , nnd remarked
thnt , unlike our Indiana editors , they
attended to business before they did
their junketing. Thence wo went to
ATLANTA
And abode three days finding the
people considerably excited ever the
great cotton exposition , which is to
come oil' in October. Its scope has
been greatly enlarged , until it is to bean
an exposition of everything which
interests the south.
Mr. II. L. Kimball , who has charge
of the exposition building and gener
al arrangements , in n decided success.
Ho is a native of Maine ) one ot BIX
brothers , all of whom are original and
progressive. II. I. was once Demo
cratic candidate for governor of Maine ,
but in the south in war time ho be
come a llepublican. Ho carried things
with such a high hand during recon
struction times thnt the old south par
ty invited him to leave as soon as they
got * the power. Not long afterward
Atlanta ! seen thnt she needed just such
a man nnd invited him back. He came
and made several enterprises successful
f"l and ran for mayor , lacking but
fifty ' votes of an election. AVhon the
great opera houno ho was interested in
failed to pay , ho said he would make
it pay by using it for the Georgia state
house. They laughed nt him , but all'
tin name ho brought the capital of
Georgia to Atlanta , and the ofllccs
nre now in the old opera house. The
revolution in n small way was so quiet
ly nnd quickly done thnt the American
people have scarcely found it out , and
most of the common schools yet teach
that Milledgeville is the capital
\Vhon the cotton exposition was pro
jected the unanimous voice was for
Kimball to manage it. In 1870 ,
March 12 , ho broke ground for the
Kimball hotel , and on the 19Hi of
October it was ready for guests. Un
fortunately there are § 050,000 in it ,
on which dividends nro scarce. And
so it is with most of his great works-
he makes them succeed , nnd they
help the city , but he gains no lucre
thereby. His plan for the exposition
buildings is for a series of wooden
structures , in the style of movable
cotton mills , and to be used as such
afterwards , '
There will bo n special department
for railroads , in which they nro ex-
pcctod to display specimens of all
minerals along their linos.1
Atlanta talks'familiarly of her 45- ,
000 people , nnd I judge she has about
that many. She is in the hill country ,
01 rather , where the hill , country.bo-
gins to yield to the level lands of the
far south , nnd is to bo the commercial
metropolis of three states. Thence
wo journey leisurely to Chntlnnooga ,

DEATH OF MARIE LAVEAU
A Woman With a Wonderful HI.
tory , Almoit a Century Old ,
Carried to the Tomb
Yesterday Evening.
New Orleani I'lrsjune.
Thosi ) who have passed by the
quaint old house on St. Ann , between
Kampart and Burgundy streets , with
the high , fr.vil-loolcing fence in front
ever which n true or two is visible ,
have , till within the last few years
noticed through the open gateway a i
docropid old lady with snow-white
hair , nnd a muileof peace nnd contentment -
ment lighting up her golden features. ,
For a few years past she has boon
missed from her accustomed i lace ,
The fuoblo old lady lay upon her bed 1 ,
with her daughter nnd grandchildren
around her ministering to her wants.
On Wednesday the invalid sank into
the sleep which knows no waking.
Thosu whom she had befrioii'lod
crowded into the little room where
she was in order to obtain a last look
nt the features , smiling even in death 1 ,
of her who had boon so kind to thorn ,
At 5 o'clock
yesterday
evening
! }
Marie Kivoau was buried in her family
tomb in St. Louis cemetery No. 1.
Her remains were followed to hole
grave by a largo concourse of people ,
the must prominent and the moat
humble joining in paying their last
respects to the dead. Father Mignot
conducted the funeral services.
Marie Laveau was born ninety-
eight years ago. Her father was i a
rich planter , who was prominent in
all public affairs , and served in the
legislature of this state. Her mother
was Marguerite Henry , andhorgrand-
idAll
mother was Marguerite Somard. All
wore beautiful v onion of color. The
gift of boautv was hereditary in the
family , and Marie inherited tt in the
-.mi ,
fullest degree. When slio was twenty-
five years old slio WAS led to the nlfcir
by Jacques 1'nris , a cirpeiiter. This
irtnrrinf0 took plnco nt the St. Louis
cathedral , 1'oro Aiitoine , Of iho be *
loved incinory , conducting the service
and Mr. Maznrcau , tlio famous lawyer ,
a6ting as witness. A year afterwards
Mr. Paris disappeared , and no ono
knows to this day what bccatno of
him. After waiting a year for his re
turn she married Captain Christopho
Olnpion , The latter was nlso very
prominent tliero , and served with dis
tinction in the battalion of men of
Sftn Domingo , under D'Aqnin , with
Jackson in the war of 1815.
Fifteen children wcro the result of
their inarria o. Only ono of these is
now alivo. Oapl. Ol.ipion died great
ly regretted on the 25th of Juno , '
1855. Five years afterward Marie
Laveau became ill , and lias been sick
ever since , her indisposition becoming
more pronounced and painful within
the last ten years.
Ik-sides being very beautiful , Marie
was also very wise. She wns skilful
in the practice of medicine and was
acquainted with the valuable healing
qualities of indigenous herbs.
Slio was very miccessful an a nurse ,
wonderful stories being told of her
exploits at Iho sick-bed. In yellow
fever and cholera epidemics she was
alw.iyn called upon to nursu the melt ,
and always responded piomntly. Her
skill and'knowledgo earned her the
friendship and approbation of those
sulliciently cultivated , but the ignor
ant attributed her success to unnat
ural means and held her in constant
dread.
Notably in 1853 n committee of
gentlemen , appointed ntn mass meet
ing hold nt Globe hall , waited on
Marie and requested her on behalf of
the people to minister to the fovor-
stricken. She wont out nnd fought
thu pestilence whoru it was the thick
est , nnd many nlivo to-day owe their
salvation to her devotion.
Not only to the sick was Mary La-
veau a blessing. To help a follow-
creature in distress she considered a
priceless privilege. She wns born in
the house where she died. Her
mother lived and died there before
her. The unassuming cottage has
stood for a century and n half. It
was built by the first French settlers
of adobe , and jiot n brick was used in
its construction. When it was
erected it was considered the hand
somest building in the neighborhood.
Rampart street wns not then in existence -
tonco , being the skirt of a wilderness ,
and latterly a line of entrenchment.
Notwithstanding the decay of her
little mansion , Marie made the sh'ht
of it pleasant to the unfortunate. At
nny time of night or day anyone was
welcome to food and shelter.
Those in trouble had but to come
to her nnd she would make their
cause her own , undergoing great sac
rifices in order to nasutt tliem.
Besides being charic.tblo , M.irio waa
also very pious , nnd took delight in
strengthening the allegiance of wouU
to the church Shu would nit with
the condemned in their lust moments
and endeavor to turn ( heir last
thoughts to Jeans. Whenever a pris
oner excited her pity Marie would
labor incessantly to obtain his pardoner
or at least a commutation of sentence ,
uwl she generally succeeded.
A few years ago , before she lost con
trol ot her memory , nho was rich in
interesting reminiscences of tbo early
history of this city. She spoke often
of the young American , Gov. Claiborne -
berne , nnd told how the child wife ho
brought with him from Tennessee
died of the yellow fever shortly after
his arrival , and with the dead babe
upon her bosom was buried in n cor
ner of the old American cemetery.
She spoke sometimes of the strange
little man with the wonderful bright
eyes , Aaron Burr , who wan so polite ,
and was so dangerous. She loved to
talk of Lafayette , who visited Now
Orleans over half n century ago. The
great Frenchman came to see her nt
her house , and kissed her on her fore
head at parting ,
She remembered the old French
general , Humbert , nnd wnu one of thu
few colored people who escorted to
the tomb , long since dismantled in the
Catholic cemetery , the withered nnd
griz/.ly remains of the hero of Castol-
bar. Probably she know Father Antoine -
toino bettor than any living in these
days for ho Iho priest , and she the
nurse , met at the dying bedside of
hundreds of people who to close the
faded eyes in death and ho to waft the
soul over the river to the realms of
eternal joy.
All in nil Marie Lavoau was n most
wonderful woman. Doing good for '
the sake of doing good alone , BIO ob
tained no reward , oft times mooting '
with prejudice and loathing , she waa
nevertheless contented nnd did not
flag in her work , She always had tint (
cause of the people at heart , and was
with them in'all things. During the
Into rebellion she proved her loyalty
to the south at every opportunity , ido
freely dispensed help to those who ,
suffered in defense of the "lout cause. "
Her last days wore spout surrounded
by sacred pictures and other eviden
ces of religion , Wlino God'u sun
shine plays around the little tomb
where'her remains are buried , by tno
side of her second husband , and nor
sons and daughters. Marie Luvcan's
name will not bo forgotten in Now
Orleans.
