Attention is invited to the card OF
Messrs. Geo. H. Walter & Son, receiving
and forwarding agents. These gentlemen
have been engaged in this business for a
length of time-following up the South
Carolina Railroad from Orangeburr. and
we are pleased to state, have given general
satisfaction.
2 We have received from Messrs Town
send Il North another copy of Miller's
Planters and Merchants Almanac for 1866
the third and last edition issued. Coun-
try merchants can be supplied on applica-
ton. Also, a "yellow cover" entitled the
"Fenian Chief, or the Martyr of '65." AS
Fenianism is all the CO. just now, the book
will doubtless have an extensive SALE
CITY INPRovEMENT.-It is gratifying to
know that our once beautiful, but at pre-
sent desolatod, city stands in fair way Of
renovation. Should the sale of the canal
be consuirmated, working population
will soon arrive, whose presence will INSPIRE
new energy amongst those of our citizens
who are now wading through the Slough
of Despond." AS it is, Main streetis look
ing up once more. Our old acquaintance,
j. c. Walker, Esq, has commenced to re-
build, and has set noteworthy example,
He has boldly, and with wise forecast
determined upon building, not only for
himself, but, in addition, eyects for the ac-
commodation of Messrs. Glass, Nichols
ar.1i fnSalls-in all, four Misunderstanding
stores, Of three stories in height. The
elegant facade of this work is from the
pencil of I. c. Veal, Esq, who is likewise
about to build I hotel for Mr. Robert joy
ner. Mr.. John Seegers has his ouiiding
erected. This was done under the snperin-
tendence of Mr.. G.. 7. Berg, architect.
Messrs. James Brown, E. Stenhousc and
r. Lewis have erected substantial build
lnSs. In regard to ourselves. we speak
with all modesty; but as the Phteni1 is .
bird that ever rcsuscitatcs, we may be ex-
cused for pluming ourselves upon our new
Office, to be erected OH Main street, jus.
above kinsler's building, and we are deter
mined to make it an ornament to the
street. Messrs. Kay 4 Hewetson are the
architects and superintendents Of this
work, as also of several other buildings to
be erected during the spring. Messrs E.
G. D. Hope intend to erect a building
upon their old place Of business, and many
others are making preparations for recon-
mencement.
In this connection, we are happy to be
able to refer our readers to the card of q
firm in this city, which appears in this
mornings paper. Mcssrs. Kay, Veal &
Hewetson are gentlemen personally known
to our whole community, and we might
say the State. 1t affords US much pleasure
to state that they have joined hands in
business, and feel convinced that struc-
lures submitted to their care will be any
thing but detrimental to the appearance OF
our city.
