The BUSINESS OF CHERAw.- Notwithstanding the
difficulties attending the efforts Of our busiaes,
community since tho close of the war the want OF
money the destruction of property, the burning OF
store e-huusos and the failure OF last years crop
our merchants have made considerable headway,
and We arc proud to think thore are few towns In
the State where better opportunities for trade are
offered to the purchaser. Our connection by rail
| road with Charleston and Wilmington, and the
| Northern Cities gives us a reputation not unde-
served, though enjoyed by few other towns.
Many of our merchants have laid in their fall
goods and others will go in few days for this
purpose; and they are making preparations for 4
| large fall trade.
| Cheraw always enjoyed the reputation OF being
10 best cotton market in the State outside OF the
|
reputation may not be retained. Our merchan ts
! can offer sufficient inducements, if they will, to
bring trade. and once our large trade is fully re-
established, there is no fear or not being able u
retain it, The farmers ami planters of our ad-
| Joining Districts, and OF the nei9 hboring Counties
| of North Carolina, can be easily induced to bring
| their produce to this market.
The CheraV bridge across the Pee Dee is now
being used, add there is no longer trouble ,ome
ferry 10 be crossed, and We may reasonably expect
the large trade from that side OF the river WHICH
we once could boast Ana notwthsta landing tho
unreasonable weather. every one anti tlipates 4
| large crop.
Our merchants now have, and are constantly re
ceiving large stocks OF goods, which they can ailo
will sell as cheap as can be purchased III any o
the interior towns. tHerdc Guzet'c.

Cu,nIEsroN MERCHANTS. The Charleston pa
ncrs arc frequently euosizing the libcralily OF III
lhorleston merchants: and they toll oi thell abl!t
tn meet all the demands that country merchant

in Charleston We think one good reason ma
be found in the fact that country merchants don
know that they can do better by trading ey
