A Tribute to the EHebre w Race.

An able speech was lately made by |
Mr.. B. R. Plumly, in the Texas LeglS-
lature, on a motion to suspend the rules
TO pass an act of incorporation for a He
brew association. 1t seems strange to
citizens Of the older States, where acts
of incorporation of religious societies
are common, and where no one thinks
Of Objecting to extending such pnyf-
leges to Hebrews, that there should
be any difference of opinion in, an
American legislative body on such,
subject. The objection, however, to the
suspension of the rules by one OF the
members, because, as he said, Z" do not
much like Jews" had the result OF
bringing out the spirited and eloquent
speech referred to, the keynote OF
Which was thus boldly struck in the
beginning: "I do like Jews. If were
not Christian should be a jew. It is
foolish and cruel custom to derid& the
Jews as a people" Starting from this
point the speaker-after rebuking the
spirit of self-righteOusness by the re-
mark, among others, that eve do near
ly everything that Christ condemned,
and we leave undOne almost everything
that He required to be donen-paid an
eloquent and stirring tribute to the
Jewish race; the tenacity of its life !;
the courage and endurance with which
it met and mastered all conditions; its
existence as great people at a period
so remote that what we call history is
lost in tradition; surveying the great
ness of Egypt which held it in bondage ;
exploring the ruins Of Babylon, which,
thousands of years ago held it captive,
where its exiles hung. their harps upon
the willows; having" laws which have
become the laws of the world, and per-
meated its civilization; gifts and ac-
tivities felt even now in commerce, Il
nance, musical and dramatic art, states
manship, literature and eloquence. Mr.
Speaker, of all people, we who are
Christians should not undervalue the
Jews. They were the custOdians Of OUl
religious ideas the prOgenitOrs of oul
Christian exemplar. In view OF this
subject, realize the feeling OF Dlsrael
when, in the British Parliament, taunteC
with being Jew, he is said to have re
: piled: I am Jew. When the gentle

the people living where religious tolera

: ton should be called for anywhere i

It will be noticed that the above
estimate was made for the road to
Allendale p from Anderson, 14O
miles. Should the roadbe run to
Augusta from Anderson instead of
to Allendale, the distance will be
reduced to 90 miles, and the cost
per mile not increased. This
change of route would reduce the
expense to two-thirds of this CAL
culation. The Augusta people and
the Port Royal r. r. would likely
aid this road if Augusta was made

The Railroad Meeting on Wednesday
sa y" Last. IN - r.

The Railroad meeting on We'd
nesday last was well attended by
our citizens generally, and a good
representation Of delegates from
the various counties were present,
An eyinced a deep interest. in the
building Of this Road, and we be-
lieve from the tone of those pres
ent, that our whole people will be
ready to contribute material aid
at the proper time. A good por-
ton of the time of, the convention
was occupied in, the discussion of
the best route for the Road below
Abbeville. The Anderson, Pick
ems, and a, portion of the Abbe-
viileddelegations thought best to
Yun the Road by Dorn's Mine,
thence to Augusta, while the del
delegation from Edgefeld, Barn
we'll, Aiken and Beaufort, contend-
ed that the best route was through,
Edgefeld, Barnwell, and Aiken to
ALendale on the Port Royal Rail
road. Finally the question of lo-
cation, was left unsettled, with
the understanding tn at tn e
route contributing the largest
amount. Of money in proportion
to distance should have the. road.
To build a Railroad involves the
expenditure of. a large amount OF
money, but the advantages to be
derived. from such an investment
cannot be well computed. Mr.. 5.
C..Millett, the Superintendent and
builder of the Port Royal Railroad,
estimates that the cost Of a Rail-
road through this county will be
about S2S,5OO per mile when equip
ped with rolling stock ready for
business. OF this amount $4,000
per mile will be spent for labor
and material in constructing the
road and its depots along the route.
Should itrun to Dorn's Mine and
thence to Augusta, more than for
ty miles of this road will run
through Abbeville County, which
will involve an outlay of money
to the amount Of about 100000,
for labor contracts, cross-tics,
depots, &c., to our own people, and
leaves the County in possession Of
that amount OF taxable property
to assist US in paying our annual
taxes. In addition to the value of
the road may be added the en-
HANGED value of all the lands along
the 'roate;e The woodlands along
the route Of the Port Royal Rail-
road were worth from so cts. to
$1.5O per acre before the road was
built. Now such lands that are
within FIVE miles of the road are
worth from SIS to $40 per acre.
We could not expect our lands to
rise in the same ratio, but there is
no doubt bnt. that all lands lying
within five, miles of the track
would be doubled in the market
value. This.increased valuation of
land would also add largely 10 our
income. Along this route many
of, our citizens would obtain prof
table employment from the road as
conductors, engineers, brakesmen,
depot agents, station masters, tank
tenders, &c.
These are some of the direct ad-

TRIAL JUSTICES.


Has any one ever noticed the
chronic desire on The part Of many.
Puritans, who do not excelin moral
courage, to censure Trial Justices ?
1t seems a little strange that men
of small note should feel constantly
called upon to make wholesale
charges against the Trial Justices
of this State. If any officer has
been derelict in the performance OF
his duty, we. think it manly to-
name the officer and point out the
misdeed, and award just CEN
sure, But when a man imaglnes
SOME great grievance, aud without
stating what has been done wrong,
or who did the wrong act, and
sends his shafts headlong among
the Trial Justices, we are at loss
to know where: the courage comes.
