on Monday, September 6. Maj. Benz
Kennel, was called to the chair, and K.
a. Mcknight, Esq, was appointed Sec
retary.
Mai. B II. Rice offered the following
preamable and resolutions, with few
appropriate remarks:
Whereas, the enormous taxation im-
posed by the present Stare government,
and their waStcful expenditure AID reck-
less issuing of bonds excite alarm in the
minds of those whose capital and labor
stahd pledged, without their voice or
consent, to the ,demption of the same;
and, whereas, it is deemed just to our
selves, as also an act of good faith, to
give to the world notice of our intention
to use every means to avoid the payment
of these obligations; therefore,
Be 1t resolced, That we declare and
publish, without delay, to all concerned,
our indisposition and inability 10 pay

such bonds for any consideration Great,
cd since 1868, as it is the unalrerahie
purpose of the cpi,al and labor of this
State never to pay them.
ResolUed, That we are willi,g to pay
all the legitimate expenses of civil GO
vcrnment, and all the hligatioEs of the
State, principal and interest, created by
her representatives in good faith pre-
vious to the war.
Re~lyed, That the natives. and J"na

lor, have with usa common interest and
the same necessity for the speedy res

representation of life, liberty and the
property" in an afflicted communicable.
RrsoIyed, That in view oftf csc griev.

THE COTTON CROP.

During the present term of our Court,
we have had opportunities of CONVEX
sing with persons from every part of
our district, and learning the prospect
of the cotton crop, and from every Sec
tion tho report is that the crop will be
short, estimated variously at one third
to one half what itat one time promised.
From increased acreage and the use Of
fertilizers, it was expected that the crop
would largely exceed that of last year,
but it is believed by many that it will
not exceed, even if it reaches that a,
mount.
The corn crop, except in a few IA
vored localities will be very short.

build up and enrich our own cities; that
it was our duty and to our interests to

Mr.. Connors, of Lancaster, Was called
on. He believed they could offer the
enterprise in light that would be ac-
ceptable to the citizens of NJ Mccklenburg;
that there was no question as to the
earnestness of his section on the subject;
they all stood upon the same platform,
and were determined to do their part
in building the road !; that it would be
built to Lancaster, aud if the people OF
this section would assist them the road
would be extended to Charlotte. lie

THE GEORGETOWN RAIL ROAD
.... COMPANY.

This company was chartered in 1859,
with tho view of building a road to
Gade's Depot on the North Eastern
Railroad. After grading and building
trestlss for about thirty-fve miles, the
work was closed on account of the
war. For various reasons. the road bed
was sold, as we learn from the George
town Times, and purchased by num-
ber of prominent gentlemen who have
re-organized the company under the
name of "The Georgetown and Lancas-
ter Rail Road Company" which "pro-
poses to build road from Georgetown
to some point on the North Carolina line
10, Lancaster District when it is ex-
pected the people of Charlotte will con-
meet it with a road from that city.
We find in the Times an article set
ting forth the advantages of this road,
which we intended to copy, but as all
these will be attained by the South
sCarolina' Central road and have been
fully set forth, We scarcely deem it ne
cessary to do so, as our Georgetown
friends will doubtless find it to their
interest to unite with US in building the
proposed Central Road.
