FIRE AND BURGLAR PROOF
DOUBLE CYLINDER
ala s A IF E!

TNHE advantage of this Fire and Burglar Proof
Il Safe consists in its peculiar construction. The
most serious objection to Safes heretofore in USE has
been their liability to destruction by falling from
heights and the impossibty of rendering the doors
mpervious to heat particularly in large safes where
square safe is door. These and other objections an
pcabie to the present mode of making safes are OBJ
Waited by this patent, by constructing it in cylin-
dricai shape, with convex tops and bottoms thus
curing the greatest possible strength; and, by max
ing the interior to revolve upon pivots, bringing
the outer opening, with no inlet or seam. .
Between this inner compartment and the outer
cylinder, ID an air chamber, extending completely
around, leaving no connection between the two
structures but the pivots upon which the interior
cylinder rev0lves. These advantages are manifold:
but call attention 10 singular feature of the in
ventOn; it is, that the inner safe is movable, and
when the outer door is opened the surface of the lat
ter presents an appearance that indicates that the
whole safe is solid mass. The signal Importance of
this fact evident; for when the inner safe Is unlock
ed and made to turn its door is Immediately exposed
to view, when the compartments for books, drawers
and pigeon holes are exposed. The frame which con-
tains them is also movable, and revOlves apon pv-
OTIS SO that when pushed around, brings another
riss OF divisions for books drawers and pigeon holes
to the hand thus IL is double the capacity of square
Safes Not only does this system present greater
sisance to fire. but for the that the sheets of
iron cannot part from the filling, and of there being
no contact OF the inner with the outer surface, lex
cept at the pivOts, where the filling is made purpose
ly thcker) but the bullying front of the interior
face, without Orifce when turned, is equally proof
against burglars. fefr.-y a -r-sf +.
The contour of this safe is more symmetrical and
durable than the old STYLE is susceptible of higher or
namentat0n and is from the very nature OF the case
easier of transportation, as it can be rolled about like
barrel or hoop. t.sst.

and Friday Of last week. The occasion was an
interesting one, as many important subjects were
discussed The following are the officers elect:

The most important measure acted on is the
changing Of the bed Of the road, between Frog
Level and Columbia, to the West side Of Broad
River. As it stands now, it is never safe from
disaster. Should it be transferred, the new ronte
will be on a secure ridge and through wooded
country.

Cur Town.

MANY things can be done for the prosperity Of
a place which are not thought Of till the praeti-
cability of these things IS suggested. Before the
war; which has Just closed, a large quantity of
cotton was bought in this town. The Bank Of
Ncwbcr1y Was in operation then, and furnished
facilities to traders and dcalers-merchants the
means of purchasing all the produce brought to
this market and offered for sale. Capitalists
Joined their means and took stock in the Bank.
The Bank went into operation and the result was
what has just been stated; that the means of
purchasing the produce Of the country were af-
! fordcd, and the produce was sold.
Is it rot possible that the same lhing can again
be done? 1t is believed that there is capital
enough at this time, in the District lying idle,
which, if put into 4 National Bank, would give
ali the facilities for buying and selling produce in
this town, which oucc existed here, when the
Bank Of Ncwberry was in successful operation.
When good market is afforded to the people
near home, it is never the case that the people
will 90 far, and pass by such market, 10 sell
their produce. The difficulties are so great, as
were evidenced by the winter lst past, in getting
to market, that when such difficulties can be
avoided, they Will not voluntarily be undertaken.
Capital lying idle brings no profit to the owner
nor to any other person. If this capital could be
invested safely, so as to be secure, and at the
same time make profit to the capitalist, great
good would be conferred upon the community at
large, while the capitalist would be realizing a
be said that every thing is TOO unsettled to en-
bark in such enterprises as this. would suggest
that nov is tie time to engage il such an under
taking. Columbia-a town three-fourths burned
to the ground, and the people literally stripped
OF ererylhng-saw the Importance OF the thing
! suggested, and bas National Bank under way.
! If the people OF Columbia can command the
means what is there to prevent the people Of
Ncwbcrry from doing the same thing?
The concentration Of capital here will bring
trade and prosperity not only to the town, but tc
the District, and to the Rail Road. We see re
ports in the papers that projects are contemplated
as 10 connecting Charleston with Cincinnati, by
means Of the Blue Ridge Rail Road, by way o.
Knoxville, Tenn, and also Of making the conuec
tons froa Atlanta, Ga, to Anderson, S. C., from
Newberry to Chester, S. c., and thus on to the
great thoroughfares to the North This woulc
! place Newberry in position which would con
duce more to her prosperity than any other thing
that could be done.
These suggestions are thrown out like brcac
upon the waters-the results may be seen afte
many days. In the meantime will The peop
think OF these things? CITIS.
