MIR EDITOR After reading the
above remarks published in your paper
of 18th inst, 1 feel that it becomes my
duty as Que of the members of the late
common council of Orangeburg, to "Risc
to explain" what know of the Amelia
Street sewer, and Of the Bull Swamp
Road Bridge
Abouttwo years ago, during the adj
ministration of Ex-Mayor Bull, I, being
at that time member of the common
council, was approached by by o citizen
about turning the rain fall fom market
Street, down Amelia, into Broughton
sreet, and also, of putting a Bridge over
the run of the Bull Swamp Road.
thought that course for the water to take
was an unnatural one, and that the
Town would have to be taxed unnecessari-
ly to produce such a change. AS regards
the Bridge across Bull Swamp Road, I
saw no necessity for it, unless for the pur-
pose of draining certain lowlands. Some
time in the month Of June 1873.-short-
ly before my departure from the state
Council met, and tax was then levied
for the ostensible purpose of aiding the
Fire Department. and for purchasing
two, or more, Fire Extinguishers, for
the benefit ofthe corporation. That tax
yielded to the Town revenue of over
s 400
Ou my return to Orangeburg, after
an absence OF two months, / learned,
(not from official source) that Amelia
Street, had been ditched, to the detriment
of private property and that the Bull
/
swamp Road had been bridged.
l called upon a Councilman to ascer.
tain the facts in the case, but not having
the opportunityof an interview, then cal.
ledupon Aldermen Wilcock and Martin
They both said that}the subject had been
discussed in Council, but that no vote
had been taken .on the matter, conse
qucntly, no definite action was arrived
at. The record books do not show a
vote on the subject. When the bill OF
expenditures for tnat work was submit
ted before Council for notifications; Lob

THE l COTTON FACTORY.

Z .a IL / : ..g
The advantage officiating factories all
2over the South is no longer question
lforargument. Among the many resolu-
s.tions incident to the result of the late
war, is that of employing at home every
available fibre of thrift and economy.
The South has been wonderful pro-
+sduceriof wealth, and quite as wonderful
has she benin spending,it. Not merely
in pleasure trips and fashionable excur-
sions but also in the endless variety of
.dispensables. which if required may have
been manufactured at home, thereby saw
ling per centage which has sustained
tens of thousands of trades-people and
built up cities of wealth and Importance.
Admitting the imperative need, nay the
assured right of the South, to demand
that the raw material should remain on
the spot where grown, to be worked into
marketable. goods, Cthe cypress to be
sawed to shingles and slaves, the iron
ore to be smelted into stoves and hollow
) ware, end the cotton lint to be woven to
fabfics) the question comes up how shall
the motive power be best applieds that
the result of economy shall be the lar
gest success. Steam and water are the
competitors for favor, and more expert
enced minds must debate their respective
merits. A location in the town, or in
the country adjacent is another question
Of great Importance, both of which pre-
sent weighty arguments, pro and con.
The question of location affects the sue
cess of the scheme, proportionably rs it
affects the cost of living of the operatives.
Cheap subsistence to the operatives re-
: duces necessarily the main item of ex-
pense (wages) and VICE VERSA. We do
not anticipate our subjects in ourremarks
on this question, inasmuch as the matter
of current expenses is based entirely on
the location Of the factory, and the sue
cess of the scheme on the page of expen-
ses First then we urge factory here
or anywhere in tho County, where the
committee may determine, but we think
the location out of the corporate limits
and at a convenient distance to both town
I and railroad decidedly preferable. The
argument in favor of town location
- ,s,T
would be an appreciation oftown proper
, ty, aud q convenience as regards transpor-
tation. Against this would be high rents,
and cost of living for The operatives
which would increase the expense Of
wages. Again the advantage of Gotta

THE CARRIER.PrGEoy.

The speed of the carrier-pigeon has gen.
orally been overrated. Careful expoFi.
ments have shown that thirty miles an hour
IS the average, although in a few well-au-
thenticated instances, thrice that speed has
been attained. In 1908 an English gem
tleman laid large wager that his pigeons
could fly thirty-fve miles an hour. To de-
eide the question, three of his trained birds
were taken exactly that distance from his
residence, and let loose in the presence Of
witnesses. They arrived home together
IN just fifty-three minutes. or seven min.
utes ahead of time. In 1888, during the
great annual trial of carrier-pigeons at
Ghent, twenty-four birds were let fy at
Rouen, Zone hundred and fifty miles dis
tant, at five minutes before ten in the
morning. Their fight was carefully timed.
One Of them reached Client. in one hour
and thirty minutes, having traversed the
distance at the marvellous rate of more
than ninety miles an hour. Sixteen made
the journey in two hours and half. Sew
eral were never heard from. In the East
wonderful stories are told Of their speed
and endurance. The traveller Litbgow
tells US that one will carry letter from
Babylon to Aleppo in forty-eight hours,
the places being thirty days journey apart
by the slow modes Of travel used in the
East. But the stories Of early travellers
are to be taken with many grains Of allow
ance. Although for short distance, or
in exceptional cases, the carrier-pigeon
may attain much greater speed. thirty
miles an hour is probably its average. It
could not sustain long flight with greater
velocity. r4sI4ss- !,
Even this speed can not be maintained
without rest, for the carrier-pigeon has not
the endurance which belongs to many
birds Of passage. 1t always descends at
night for shelter and repose, and hence 1t
can rarely fly across a wide expanse Of
water. To this was partly owing the fail
ure of the attempt to use them for convey
ing intelligence from the arctic explorers.
and partly to another cause. Some writ
ers, chiefly poets and romancers, would
have US believe that the carrier-pigeon
finds his way home from remote places by
kind of instinct; but this is notthe case.
Its flight is guided by sight alone. When
let loose from confinement 1t rises to .
great height in the air by series Of con.
stantly enlarging circles until 1t catches
sight of some familiar landmark by which
to direct its coarse. If flown on foggy
day it soon becomes bewildered, and either
returns to the place of flight or is lost
Let loose from balloon on q clear day,
and too far above the ground for objects
thereon to be discerned even by its pierc-
ing vision, instead of rising, it drops per-
peudicularly, like plummet, until it nears

in descending spiral. constantly increas-

above mentioned of ascertaining its local..
ty, and discovering some indications for
the direction of its course.-Harpsr's Mag
