There is a rascal in Paris who
walks the streets with the sad, up
turned visage of a blind man till
he comes to a crossing, where he
gives every token of being afraid to
cross. He appeals to the passen-
gers to take pity on him, and help
him in his difficulty. Some charit-
able creature takes his arm and
leads him across. He is thanked
by the poor blind man ; ne goes on
his way, feeling that he has done a
kind deed; and the next time he
puts his hands into his pocket for
his watch he finds that it is gone.

THE AIR LINE RAILROAD.

The proceedings of the Town Council, publish
ed in another column, indicates the feelings and
purposes of our citizens respecting this enterprise.
We are prepared to discharge every duty incum-
bent upon us as citizens when the proper time
arrives, and the courteous hospitality extended to
Col SAGE and his corps of engineers only feebly
expresses the real interest felt in everything rela-
ting to the Air Line Railroad. But We must not
be idle or slolhful in watching the process ofmove-
ment elsewhere to secure the location of the Road.
The people of Greenville and Spartauburg, we are
assured, really believe that their efforts will gain
the location of the Road through their county
sites, and it is necessary to keep pace with shese
efforts, and indeed to checkmate their faal con-
summation. This can only be done by prompt,
vigorous and liberal measures at the most propi-
tious moment.
We understand that Col. SAGE and party have
been engaged in surveying the route from this
place to the Savannah River, but we have not
learned anything definite as to their progress.

gardens on the Greenville road as far UP as VIC
went. The watermelon crop is quite promising.
We were conducted through several patcheg

ripe and then We are persuaded in our OWN mind

One night we enjoyed rich treat, indeed, in
the way of music on the piano. The owner Of
the piano is a young lady of rare musical talent
and brilliant performance; and under the magic
of her touch, it's rich mellow tones have charmed
the ears of hundreds-we might say thousands
without exaggeration. Often and again have the
wild, irregular, but magnificent melodies of the
grand old instrument thundered from its keys to
thrill the senses by their wonderful beauty Fhe

the gay and lively have moved before il te gsace-

feelings of assurance, that one who was raised in

that it WIS good to be there that evening. Since
then we have had very pleasant reflections, and

STATE AND COUNTY TAXES.

An advertisement of the County Treasurer no.
ti6es tax payers that his Office will be open on and
after the 18th instant, for the purpose of rcceiv-
ing the State and County taxes for the year 1868.
After the 2Sth of August, the penalty of twenty
per cent will be added, and with this addition the
taxes may be paid until the 18th of November,
when the books will close and executions will is
sue against all delinquents. 1t behooves, every
citizen, therefore, to make payment before the
penalty is added The State tax is 10 cents on
the SlOo 90; County tax, 80 censt on the $4,000; {;
Poll tax, $780, According to recent decision Of
the Attorney General, State bills receivable are
not lawful tender in payment Of County farea, and
hence tax payers should bear in mind that they
must provide enough greenbacks to settle that
score. The State Board Of Equalization it will be
remembered, added fifty per cent. on the valuation
of real estate in this county. This fact will aug
menc the amount to be paid and. our people must,
be prepared 10 meet exhOrbitant demands upon
their purses.

Spanish yoke and establish her independence" He
also said: "In the fields before US are the graves
of the rebel dead, now sunk to the level of the
plain, unmarked, unhonored and unknown. They
were our countrymen; of our blood, language and
history. They displayed courage worthy of
better cause, and we may drop tear to their men,

rg1, F1prEENrH AMENDMENT.

we see ii stated in our exchanges that Vermont,
Rhode Island Maryland, Geors ia, Virginia, Texas
and Mississippi are yet to vote on the Fifteenth
Amendment 10 the Constitution of the United
States, which guarantees universal suffrage in ev-
cry State ana deprives the Stale of any right to
regulate suffrage within its borders. The votes oil
only four more States necessary TO make it q
part of !he Constitutions, and its ratification
having been made condition precedent to the ad,
mission of Virginia, Mississippi ari Texas into
the Union, these States may be very safely placed
on the side of ratification. But one vote will then
be needed, which will be supplied by Vermont,
even though the Legislature of Rhode Island
should naver take any action upon the matter.
The adoption Of this Fifteenth Amendment, says
the Wilmington STAR places not only the Southern,
but The Northern States completely at the mercy
of Congress in the matter of suffrage, which has
heretofore been considered of the vital princi-
Piles of the Constitution
1t seems strange that even Radical Legislature,
in Northern State, would raify this Amendment,
and thereby aid in giving death blow 10 that
great feetlse Of the United States Constitution
which has always recognized the right of State
TO regulate the question of suffrage within her own
borders
But, the sooner the Northern people enslaye
themselves the sooner will they realize what they
have lost; and then, perhaps they may aid us in
striking che fetters from our Limbs.

VOLUME FIFTH.

This number begins new volume OF the lntelIs-
ssneer. Four years ago, when the country was
prostrated after long and desperate struggle this
paper was revived by its present editor, and went
forth on its mission to enighten instruct and i'm
prove the little world of readers gathered about
its standard. How far.that mission has been ac-
complished and with what consistency the great
principles of truth and justice have been advocs-
ted. We leave the reader to judge. But this maeh
we claim, that there has been trucking or sub
serviency to, the intrusive clan Of greedy adven-
turers now usurping high places IN the State, and
no dimiuutiou of true devotion to the highest and
best interests of the whole people. However
ieebly the duties of journalist have been per-
gormed it has been the constant aim of this paper
30 enlarge the views. expand the resources and
benefit the masses of the people. In eur limited
sphere, not much has been accomplished ana YET
we are not without hope that these efforts nave
been duly appreciated. The constantly increasing
ist of subscribers assures us of the fact that there
is remuneration for increasing toll and steady pur
pose. Beginning another volume-a new leaf in
the charter of events-we take courage from the
past and will seek to increase the usefulness.
widen the influence and strengthen the character
of this journal. To accomplish these objects, we
need the cooperation and support of every man
interested in the prosperity and advancement of
our section and country. We look with confidence
towards tAe people upon whom we have relied
heretofore and shall honestly endeayor to merit
their good Will and friendship. Their generous
suRport through series of years awakens graft
tude in our heart, and Eghtens the labors of edi-
eorial life

Mr Editor Since our note of June 9TH, We
have had the pleasure of perambulating the coun-
try more extensively, and as usual we noticed the
farms and people where We went. We take great
delight in looking over good farm, and listening
to the ideas of those who tend them. There is q
wise and elemental order in the farmers business.

and he thus becomes, not like the artisan, spoke

assured when these homely, solid topics engross

THE CINCINNATI SOUTHERN RAILWAY.

The recent election held in Cincinnati to deter
mine whether or not the great Southern railway
from that city to Chattanooga should be built re-
suited in an overwhelming vote in favor of the
Rood. For the railway more than fifteen thous-
and votes were polled and only fifteen hundred
against it, More than half of full vote was
poei, which shows great popular interest in the
enterprise, since many persons remained away
from the polls, feeling certain that their voes were
not needed either to carry or defeat the measure
The fact that under the circumstances 80 heavy o
vote was given shows the deep interest and remark
able unanimity Of the people in regard to South
ern connection We are not without hope thaE the
Blue Ridge Railroad is to be benefited by this &C.
tion of the Cincinnati people, although the con-
nection with that Road is not so direct or certain
as its friends were led to believe. Yet, the enter
prising business men of that city will not allow
this mporan, link to be neglected, and all the i'm
mense advantages of n direct route to Charleston
be lost TO their manufacturers and gran-producing
farmers. In The course of time, their aid and as
sisance must be generously rendered but it is
highly probable that before that time arrives the
struggles and difficulties of the Blue Ridge corpo-
ration will be over. And them as corporations are
souless, it will require mathematical demonsra-
ion 10 induce the advantages and business resour-
for Cincinnati. Other influences may possibly
gain the ascendancy and much be lost to the deni-
zens of Porkopois. We will abide the result.
