road from Anderson C. III. via Pcndlcton
village,
The course which She State has seen fit
to pursue, will suggest to interested parties,
the necessity of a larger private subscrip-
tion, and the propricty as well as necessity
OF aid being procured from the other States
so deeply interested in the work. AS it
goes forward within Che limits Of South Car
olina, let these States show corresponding
interestin the part of it requiring to be con
&ructed within their borders, If these
conditions be fulfilled, we join the Ne,cs in
Che belief that the Road will and must ul-
tinutely be built

lying idle, which will compete with us for
the carrying trade of the world, and which
Austria has no navy TO interfere with. The
calculation that American securities will be
sought for foreign investment, is not safe
one. The powers at war will need immense
sums of money, and viii offer, at home, good
investments to capital. American securities
are at a sad discount-~moral as well as f.
nancial-abroad and war loans will be
held on the Bourse and at the London Ex-
change in much higher estimation than the
stocks or bonds of American railroads.
There is not likely to be any influx of capt.
tai into our Golfers because foreigners think
it is safer here than in their own. What
legitimate business may come to us, let US
wait for, and be thankful for, but any hope
that this is to be largely increased by the
condition of affairs in Europe will prove
fallacious. A speculative fever among us
will lead to certain disaster, worse, in our
present critical condition, than any we have
known before. Though we are not where
we shall feel the full force Of the gale, we
are on the edge of it, and we have nothing
to do but to keep under short and easy sail,
and wait for better weather. To shake out
our reefs, in the hope of sooner making
port, will only lose US our topmasts, and
perhaps send us to the bottom; while, If we
keep all snug, and continue to repair DANA
ges, we shall be in good condition to avail
ourselves of the smooth sea and pleasant
| breezes which are sure to come when the
hurricane, which will strew the sea with
wreck, shall have passed away.
