There seems TO be mania for rail-
roads all through the South. States
are giving liberal aid and counties
and towns are voting stock, and In
each instance, the bonds issued there
for, are sold at a discount which
makes the realized capital bear a d.
minutive proportion to the nominal
amount. In this way debt Is in
creased that will keep the country
poor and the people tax-ridden to a
ruinous extent.
Railroads have become essential
to the commerce OF the South; this
fact will be conceded by all. But the
question arises, whether the capital
and energy expended thereon, would
not be more conducive to the devel-
opment of the resources of the South
If they were equally divided between
roads, manufactures and mining
operations. A common argument,
however, is that the way to build up
manufactures and open mines, is to
provide railroad facilities for trans.
portation. But it seems to us, the
wiser plan is, to first produce the ar
ticles for transportation-to build the
manufactures and open the mines,
and the wealth and the population
consequent upon these enterprises,
will help to build the roads at far less
cost. In addition to the advantages
of this mode of proceeding, the de-
velopment of our agricultural, mill
eral and manufacturing resources will
indicate the length and direction OF
the roads, SO as to make them more
profitable to the stockholders and
more efficient as means of trans
portation. We fear that lines of rail
road now built upon the supposition
of future Importance, or with an eye
to eniiching some particular locality,
will, hereafter, be found far from the
true line of trade and travel, and
serve no other purpose than to point
out the folly of too much haste and
too little foresight in the expenditure
of capital based upon idle specula-
tions about an unrevealed future.
Until the South shall have put in
motion machinery enough to supply
its home demand for all leading ar
ticles of daily use, its railroads will
be but tributary to the North, carry
ing there the raw material and bring
ing back and distributing the pro-
ducts of its machinery and skilled
labor. Without a plenty of freight,
roads cannot be profitable, and when
the wealth of the South is absorbed
in the effort to provide means of
transportation, it will find that it has
committed fatal error in not devot-
ing to machinery the capital and en-
ergy expended for the purpose of get
ting nearer to New York York and
New England.

The mortality was but slightly increased
over that of 1858, and was twenty-eight per
cent. less than the expectation according
to the tables used by the Company. The
Interest and miscellaneous receipts show
u steady increase, and again more than
paid the losses of the year; IN 1868, this ex-
cess of interest over losses was 81, i0l, and
last year 1t was sll2,053 Thelarge payment
of cash dividends made in 1858 was also In
creased s3O9,53i in 1869, and yet the assets
were increased over two millions and a
quarter by the business OF the year.
These results are substantial success.
They are such as Incidence, inefficiency
and carelessness can never compass. The
questions they answer are the test ques-
tons which determine beyond cavil the
real standing and progress of a company +;
and these questions are answered in man
ner which leaves nothing TO be desired.
Success I'm so great degree as this cannot
be guaranteed forthe future, nor can II rea-
sonably be always expected; yet these re-
suits are an unanswerable proof of past
good management and present position.
