A state Agricultural Convention.

Mr.. CaP. Pelham, formerly editor Of the
Columbia Guardian, writes to the Phoenix
urging the organization ofAthe agricultural
interest Of our State. He says s.Let us
form agricultural societies in every district
in the State. Our Democratic clubs, al-
ready organized, will serve us admirably
for this purpose. Next, let us hold q State
Agricultural Convention in Columbia, in
April or May. Railroad companies, we
take it for granted, will be as liberal and
accommodating here as in Georgis. Inn
proved methods of oultivating cotton and
other crops, the introduction of new ones,
the regulation of the labor in our midst,
the steps necessary to be aiken to promote
immigration, the enclosure system, the i'm
provement of stock, the development Of our
water power, the establishment of the vari-
Gus Glasses of manufactures, agricultural
education, &C., 60, are few of the mat
ters which demand concert of action other
topics will suggest themselves readily, as ap.
propriate to the business of such a conven-
ton"

Tho Southern Pacific Railroad BfIl.


The Memphis, Ell Paso and Pacific Rail-
road bill will be introduced into both
Houses of Congress very soon. 1t differs
from others in this, that it asks for no sub
sidy of land, inasmuch as Texas has given
it eight millions Of acres; it asks for no aid
upon second mortgage, but simply for the
guarantee of the interest upon its bonds,
and provides an ample sinking fund to Sc
cure the payment of the principal and in
terest. 1t asks for such assistance only
after the road is completed in sections, so
that when this is done it may proceed to
the next section. The bill contemplates es
the construction Of main trunk road from
Memphis to the Pacific Ocean via Little
Rock, Ark /; Jefferson, Texas; and through
Northern Texas to FL Paso, thence to San
Diego, California, connecting in California
with the California Southern Pacific. if ar
rangement can be made for this. The bill
asks also for the same assistance to the
Cairo and Fulton, the Vicksburg and Shreve-
port roads, which will be regarded as
branches to the main trunk, and thus the
road has three termini upon the Mississippi
We trust that this road will receive the
hearty support of every Southern member
of Congress. It is high time that the South
had some help from the Federal Govern
ment, and we know of no project that will
be of greater advantage to the Southern
States than the Southern Pacific Railroad

of the most wonderful even among the rapid
changes to be witnessed in the United States
In 1850, the valuation Of property for purposes
Of taxation was $21. .621 ,214, and in 1868 it had
raised to $109 360,826. A comparison between
the condition of San Francisco in 1860 and in
1868 has recently been published, from which
it appears that the statistics OF 1860 were as
follows Population ffty-six thousand eight
hundred and two; number OF houses ten
thousand one hundred ana twenty three. In
1868, the population was one hundred and
forty-seven thousand nine hundred and fifty:
number of houses eighteen thousand and nine.
During 1868, the value of the improvements
made has been estimated at SO, 900. 900, exclu-
sve Of 81, 500, 600 expended ON the streets.
The New York Herald Of Sunday says {:
"Perhaps the best evidence OF the sure and
rapid material progress Of the South may be
found in the fact that the price Of the bonds of
tho different Southern States is steadily rising
in Wall-street. The directors OF our New
York savings banks, who are proverbially con-
servative, cautious and sagacious, have lately
bought largely these State bonds. The South
ern people themselves are also adding
considerably to their investments in these
bonds. Other cheering signs of the energy
with which the recuperative powers of the
South are awakening, may be found in the
great cotton crop. estimated at two hundred
million dollars in the plentiful rice and sugar
crops +; in the abundant production Of every
thing consumed by the Southern people at
home; in the report that in many parts of the
South labor has become even cheaper than it
used to be in the days Of slavery and, lastly,
in many Indications that the political pacifca-
tion which must infallibly follow the inaugura-
ton of President Grant will open at the South
an era of good feeling aud Of unprecedented
| prosperity"
