We are informed that the President and Chief
Engineer, Col. Gwynn. attended at Anderson,
between the 10Th and 18Th instant, 10 let out
the Tunnels and Bridge masonry il Souih Caro-
lima and GcorgLl,-a number Of responsible con.
tractors were present from 'rnnsy lyana, Virginia
North Carolina, Snuih C,rnIina and Georgia.
The largest (ihe Stump lIJusc) Tunnel, WIS
let to Mr.. Gen. Coiyrr His long eypcrIenrr
in tunneliing in England. and his successful con-
structon of several difficult tunnels on the
PENNSYLVANIA Central and North Pennsylvania
Railroads. justified confidence in the high lesti-
mnnialS of his ability, which he produced from
The Engineers ON the Pennsylvania Railroads.
The SnddIe and Middle Tunnels in South CIR
oIina were let to Mcssr,. Lincoln & llumbird,
contractors from Virginia These gentlemen
also brought very satisfactory testimonials of
their iilnrss and ability To construct the tunnels
they undertook. One of line Georgia tunnels
was let to responsible citizen Of Georgia. An
offer fur The other on very favorable terms was
received also from resident Of Georgia, and
Col Gwynn expected on his route up the road,
to close thai contract
The last two contractors, though they have
not hid lr same experience as the others, have
of them on The approach to the tunnel which he
has taken, and the other in The construction OF
rulverls and in grading. The energy and per-
srverence they have exhibited during their
operations on The road, justified the highest con-
fidenre that they would complete their contracts.
The bridge masonry for the bridges over The
&c mile Creek and % mile Creek, between An.
dcrsun and PendIeton, and for Seneca river and
Cane Creek, wa. let to experienced contractors.
The competition for ali The work to be let
was sufficient, aud it is believed that contracts
have been made 1T Tie lowest rates that could
be effected.
Col. Gwynn proposes 10 erect temporary
tresle work over 26 and 90 mile Greeks TO be
used in th, carriage of rock and other materials
for construction, and TO BE- removed as soon as
the masonry is finished, and the bridges ready
to br put up.
The cost in these rcstle work, will be more
than repaid by the saving in freight of aerlals
for the road, and the employment of the engine
and dirt cars in completing The grading.
The cross ties for the part Of the road from
Anderson TO &c mile Greek, distance of &
miles, have been contracted for, and iron order
ed sufficient to lay The track beyond that stream
IIISTs TO PAREHTs.-Thc Rev Hosea Ballou
the founder and champion Of Unversalism in

{" If you practice severity, speak harshly, frc.
quenlly punish in anger, you will find your
children will imbibe your spirit and manners
But if you are wise, and treat your little ones
with tenderness, you will fix the image of love
in their minds, and they will love you and each
other, and in their conversation will initiate the
conversation which they have heard from the
tcndercst friend which children hive on earth.

THE TEMPERANCE CAUSE.
TO THE FRIENDS OF TEMPERANCE.

Beloved Friends The time has como when
something like organization and concert of ac-
ton should be had. The State Temperance
Society, if it can be revived, will constitute the
m ANS of accomplishing this end.
As the President of That body, propose TO all
orders, organizations and friends of Temperance
generally 10 assemble by delegates, at Green.
vile on the first Wednesday in August next. I
would suggest that each society, division, tent
or section be represented by three delegates
and that every friend of Temperance who will
attend, be considered as the representative of
the part of the Stale in which he may live.
In such an a:semhlage there will be material
enough to rebuild The State Society, and give
to US, who believe in Temperance and Prohlbi-
ton, the sure means of accomplishing the great
work of reform in South Carolina.
Men and brethren once more answer to the
rally, and the enemy will fly before US.
