COLUMBIA, S. c., January, 1870.
The Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta
Railroad Company having been formed
by the consolidation of the Charlotte and
South Carolina and the Columbia and
Augusta Railroad, and having executed
first and only mortgage on its entire
property of 195 miles, including equip
ment, is now redeeming all the bonds
formerly issued by said two companies
by an exchange of its first mortgage
bonds. These bonds bear seven Der
cent interest, payable in January and
July, and are amply secured by mort
gage on property which cost per mile
more than three times the amount of
bonds SO issued.
The present price of the stock and the
business of the road give ample guaran-
tee OF the security of the obligations for
permanent investment. Indeed the
opinion is freely expressed, that there is
no safer bonds issued by any party or
corporation in the State, and thew are
cheerfully commended to capitalists as O
safe Investment.
For the purpose of funding the float

these bonds are offered for sale to the

In a memoir of B. Franklin, in the
GALAXY, Mark Twain says
'What an adroit old adventurer, the
subject of this memoir was In order
to get a chance to fly his kite on Sunday
he used to hang a key on the string and
let on to be fishing for lighting.
HE invented stove that would
smoke your head off in four hours by the
clock. One can see the almost devilish
satisfaction he took in it, by giving it his
name. ro
''EIe was always proud of telling how
he entered Philadelphia, for the first
time, with nothing in the world but two.
shillings in his pocket and four rolls of
bread under his arm. But really, when
you come to examine it critically, it was
nothing. Anybody could have done it.
Franklin said once, in one Of his in
spired flights of malignity-

legitimate result is my present state Of

alteration. My parents used to have.
