Another Exodus Threatened from
South Carolina.

scott's fuss on hispicket line prom:
ises Georgia much good. We had
the pleasure of meeting. yesterday
several substantial, citizens from GER
tain Counties in South Carolina, now
under martial law, who visit oul
State in quest of lands. A venerable
old gentleman, whom we have known
for years, whose portly carriage, say
ing nothing of the infrmities of grey
old age, consort but lily with our pre-
conceived idea OF active, ghost-like
Ku-Klux, tells US something Of the
procedures under martial law. There
are about 700 United States troops at
Yorkyille, the headquarters of the
Grant club of South Carolina, and
200 more are expected. About 2OC
arrests have been made. The arrests
are always at midnight. The sus.
pec:ed or charged party is arrested
and taken to headquarters and there
aninyestigation commences. Through,
out the country, it is understood
among the colored population, that
witnesses are to receive two dollars
a piece per day. Witnesses are abun-
dant, thel efore, at that price. 1t is
understood, also, that 100000 of the
United States secret service fund is
in the State of South Carolina, at the
disposal of swift.working detectives.
The whole proceeding was inaugura-
ted under the special supervision of
Attorney General Akerman, who was
personally present, giving directions
to the United States Marshal. The
tone of the people is represented as
despairing Of any return Of good or
der. The new proceeding is considr
cred as giving renewed license to law
lessness, and without provocation.
There have been over fifty dwellings
md gin houses burned in York and
Spartanburg Counties, and the better
class of citizens believe that this work
If destruction will be resumed; hence,
such as have means are seeking new
homes in other States. with the view
TO ultimate removal. The exodus
promises, therefore, to bslarge.
This is lamentable picture and
while we deplore the condition of this
good people "a condition which forces

elnains but brief period of the
Sime allotted for moral existence, to

What one Cotton Factory VIII

There are few people who are fully
aware of the benefit which a cotton
factory is to the town or city where
it happens to be located. In order
to give our citizens some idea of the
value of manufacturing interests, we
give below some figures which will
tend to show the amount OF money
which the August, Factory Company
has disbursed here in the past six
years-since the var. We will pre-
mise by stating that the company is
only working upon a capital of six
hundred thousand dollars. In round
numbers it has paid out since the
Iaborers' Iat ore wages $l,7s3,ooo
Dividends 72O,oOO
Taxes 257,000
Incidental Expenses $4,000
Repairs oo'ooo
$2,e6s,oOO
Thus, in round numbers, it will be
seen that this company has expended
three millions of dollars in six years,
or an average Of half million per an
nam. Of these three millions there
was expended directly in Augusta /:
Operatives wages Sl,783,OOO
Dividends 100000
Taxes (municipaD $4,000
Repairs $4,000
s2eo7,ooo
Only small amount OF the stock
is held out of the city. Over two
millions and half of dollars have
found their way directly into the
pockets of our citizens from this fac
tory in six years, besides the benefits
derived from increase of population,
etc. The factory has paid out here
annually more money than it requires
to support the entire municipal gov
ernment and pay off interest on city
bonds. Putting our population at
l6,000-the census fgures-the fac
tory has declared since the war cash
dividend of one hundred and sirty
t,yo dollars to each inhabitant. AT
these figures the new mill which the
Factory Company proposes to erect
will more than compensate for the
enlargement of the canal.-Augusta
