LET US Rrrr,D

YES, let us build railroad Of our own and Tor
ourselves Let us build it from Aiken direct to EDGE
field Court House. Let US build it in the best STYLE
Let US build it with the funds (sl5OOOO we have al
ready indicated readiness TO subscribe for railroad
facilities, the balance necessary to be made up here at
home. And let US build it as soon as possible. we
procure the charter at he next session oi the Leg
isature and five are energetic, we break ground
in January, 1856.
1t is an entirely practicable route. Practicable, did
we say! 1t has not its superior, testify the engineers,
in all the United States. It will be very cheap
road and can be built IN fine style at comparatively
moderate cost.
1t will pay scme percentage on the investment, we
believe, even should no other roads from above seek
TO empty themselves upon its track. Our village, as
terminus and with prosperous country above us
ready to flock to our market, would flourish "like
green bay tree" But she could not remain tho ter
minus. And no one surely desires it. She world be
much more advantageousY situated on the great trunk
of the greatest Southern railroad Because, our Aiken
and Edgefeld road built the whole Rabun Gap trade
would come this way. Tie Greenville and Columbia
company would find it absolutely essential to their in
teresis 10 tap US, or rather 10 obtain junction with
the head OF our road So would the Savannah Valley
company. The struggle would be to reach r'dgefied
c. H. with the least possible delay. With no road
constructed from here to Asen the whims and caprices
of railroad companies may daily with and delay oil
further actual enterprise this side of the State or
years. But let bud ard here they come, all wide
awake, without slothfulness, their feelings OF llse's
Indifference changed into striving competition. Let
us build and ourselves in point oil railroad
benefits now and forever. And, what is the best part
of the transaction, go into no overgrown scheme
whose fate financially speakinglis ndark uncertain
ty We build short road and cheap road. 1t
must become the recipient Of immense freight and con-
slant travel. 1t must pay noble dividends in the end
At the least estimate it could be sold at any time and
at full cost to either Of the Railroad companies above
us. Thus, while having no ground for apprehension
of loss we would see before us almost certain pros
pect of complete success and high profits. Let US
build.
Will not some energetic citizen, who has more
leisure than present falls to share, dlte upon
this proposition and convince this community that
our true policy is 's to build and that Immediately.

THE LATE BAPTIST CONVENTION.

THE Southern Baptist Convention which recently
held its annual meeting at the capital Of Alabama, is
spoken of IN terms decidedly laudatory by q Mont
gomery Mail. We quote paragraph:
''In conclusion let lis bear our cheerful testimony
to the very high character of this body. Never have
we seen in any collection Of men, dignity, cour
tesy or disposition do right We free TO confess
that the high standard of talent and conduct prevail
ing in the convention took somewhat by surprise.
But few men spoke at ALL whose remarks did not dis,
play very respectable abilities and requirements, and
many of them evinced talents and accomplishments
Of high order. Their lofty bearing and general intel
lgence have left most cordial impression of respect
aud admiration upon the minds of the citizens Of
Montgomery"

ANOTHER SCAMP.--PASS HIM ROUND.

The Proprietor of tile Mountaineer, says the editor
of that paper, deems proper, for the protection OF
his brethren Of the press and hotel keepers, TO notice
fellow calling himself Prof }. W. TAvERNER, who is
travelling the country giving Shakespeaan read
ngs. He visited our town last week, and after hum
bugging some of our citizens, left without paying
his advertising bill Our neighbors of the Patriot in
form us that it was with good deal of reluctance, and
not until he was informed that he would be published
that he paid their BILL We nre also informed by
of the proprietors Of the hotel at which lie stopped
while here, that he resored trick 10 curtail
his bill with them He bears the general appearance
of scamp, and we hope our exchanges will give him
rho hencfit of the above facts.

ga BEAUTIFUL INsTITUTIoNw aUoTH


THE Yorkville Enquirer makes mention OF case
now pending before the United States District Court
for South Carolina, which, by bungng management
has been useessly retarded After long and tedious
examination of witnesses, palpable flaw was nj
length discovered in the indictment, anil The ca post
poned. The Enquirer, satisfied that The prosecuted
party for mail robbery Is innocent, and indignant NJ
this ill-timed tarrying of Justice, thus tauniingly
speaks of the Court in question:
"The United States Court is really beautiful IN,
stitution. Made up of an odd admixlure OF youth ana
inexperienre on the one hand and superanuatea nIu
age on the other, its sessions about as near Tue
off the "boards'' The prosecution is at beat little
short of dow nright persecuon-but when it must be
drawn ont indefinitely, exposing many OF our cizens
TO the infection Of the city in the heat o: summer, II
amounts 10 lnsuff:rable public nuisance we
scarcely know which to esteem the greater evil, the
disease or the remedy.
