And here, let us pause for moment to re-
fleet what the White Sulphur will be when
these lines Of railway are finished to the
Western world ! Is it extravaganza to sup
pose that in ten years from this time, instead
of one thousand visitors, there will be TWEEN
ty thousand All these people must be fed,
and Augusta must feed them
Verify a new Era is dawning upon us !
The people of the North, in spirit of wrath,
sought to crush us by destroying our labor
system. But benign Providence has or
dainei, that what was intended to destroy us,
should give to us new life and power and
by just retrlbution, the blow that was in
tended to crush us, has fallen on their heads
New fields for enterprise have boen open
ed. Our mountains have been made to un.
lock the doors of their mineral treasures.-
Rival manufactures of all kinds are about to
spring up, which, by their superior advanta-
ges, are destined to compete successfully,
with those Of the North, and transfer the
scat of power and wealth to the South In
a few years it will be found, that New Eng
land cannot compete successfully, with the
Southern States in the manufacture of cot
ton and wool, and earthen wares and, at no
distant day, Virginia and Western Virginia
are destined to take the lead Of Pennsylvania
New York, and New Jersey, in the iron bu-
siness, and in all branches of industry Deepen
dent on it.
If such be the fact, we shall have no tears
to shed, but our hearts will overflow with
gratitude to that great Being who, in mercy,
brings prosperity and happiness and power,
out of the very measures intended for our
overthrow. es 5s 4s-h.,e
We, therefore offer to our readers, our hear
ty congratulations, on the brilliant prospects
ahead Of u.s. Let us be of good cheer. Let
no one be Respondent Let every one bear
patiently the evils that press upon him, in
the assurance that they are but temporary !!
Day is breaking! The dawn already tinges
the East with roseate hue The skies are
bright and Frightening! 1928.

in the national debt, and the prospective IL
quotation of the whole, without imposing
onerous burdens on the people. This view Of
the subject is too attractive to require argu-
ment at our hands. AT present our national
debt is twenty five hundred millions of dol
lars. The interest on this debt is more than
one hundred and fifty millions per annum.-
The issue OF one thousand millions of non inter-
est bearing currency would at once extinguish
an equal amount Of interest bearing debt, and
thus relieve. the people Of sixty millions of
interest every year. Further issues in pro-
portion to the increase Of population would
make corresponding reductions Of debt and
interest. pfe
But we forbear from pressing this subject
further. As We before remarked, our object
is merely to introduce the subject to our read
ers. 1t is one of vital interest to the public,
and we desire our readers to know what is
going on in the great commercial metropolis
Of oar country. The whole system may be
unsound and impracticable. At present we
are not prepared to express definite opinion
IN regard to its merits These questions Of
finance and currency are among the most OBJ
struse and difficult that can occupy the attcn-
ton Of statesman. All we wish to say at
present is that the scheme is 50 plausible that
it at least merits candid consideration. So
