they are the representatives of one of the most
popular establishments of the place. This
house although established but one year ago at
once assumed a leading position in trade, and
to-day viii compare favorably in that respect at
least with the best establishment in the county.
Their stock is of general character compris-
ing everything that may be called for, and a
good class of goods and low prices are the pre-
vailing features. Messrs Rice & Colvin are
possessed of practical experience, and are both
well and favorably known to the public both
as business men and citizens, and cheer

lie as thoroughly reliable in every respect.
C. M. Martin,
One of our oldest citizens and business men is
next on the list, and is deserving of the title of
veteran, as regards the business men of the
place. Mr.. Nj a native OF jackson and
has witnessed the growth of the place from its
earliest infancy, noting all the changes for
more than half century. Since 1884 he has
taken an active part in the business interests of
the place, and none perhaps have done more
to advance its growth. We find him to-day at
the head of well stocked general store, still
plying avocation which was established
forty years ago. In the recent fire he was a
heavy loser in the way of several business
houses, but he is not discouraged, and proposes
at no distant day to replace them with more
modern and substantial structures. In the
patronage of the business houses of the place,
the public should not be unmindful of the
claims of one of the founders of the commercial
interests of the place.

Au-us;a and Port ROYAL.

lu reviewing the advantages of posi-
ton enjoyed by Augusta, the Chronicle
speaks as follows of It's connections with
our, port. "Three Of our railroads, the
South Carolina. Port Royal and Central,
connect us with the broad ocean. The
Port Royal, which has but recently been
completed, is constantly increasing in
Importance, forming as it does, the last
connecting link between the great West
and one Of the finest ports of the Allan.
tic coast. The value of his connection
is becoming more and more apparent as
time progresses, bosh to our merchants
and producers in the West. There are
few ports like the ocean terminus Of this
line, where vessels of the largest capacity
can sail directly up to the wharf an! dis
charge their cargoes Immediately into
the cars. When the charges for POI ter
age and drayase are taken into considera-
ton it will be seen that this one fact
alone forms an important desideratum in
favor Of Port Royal and the Port Royal
Railroad. Not only is time save "a
thing of serious por,ent 10 these days of
rapid trausit-bDt large expense also,
circumstances which are not forgotten by
either merchant or consumer
