RAILROAD MEEr1NG.-Active steps
are being taken towards the Euild-
ing Of the proposed road from Ches-
ter to Georgetown. A largo and cnthu
siastic meeting was held at George
town on the 22d ult., and it was
then determined to vote 100000
in county bonds in aid Of the enter
prise. 1t was also resolved to hold
convention of delegates from all
the counties Interested, at Sumter
on the goth of the present month
Fairfield should be represented at
that meeting, and we trust that i'm
mediate stops will be taken to send
tho proper delegation
The following, from the Union
Times, will be read with interest
by the many friends Of our former
young townsman, Mr.. Fleming
Brown:
In Goudeysvillo township it was
my privilege to attend the cxhibi-
ton of Mr.. Fleming Browns School,
held at Elbethel church. In dccla-
NATION and recitations his pupils
acquitted themselves with much
credit. The patrons Of tho school
report that his everyday work is
fully equal to what they might ex~
pect from an earnest, active young
man. The people Of that noigh
borhood are able to keep up q good
school 1t is their plain duty to
do it. If they can SECURE tho ser
vices Of such men as Mr.. Brown
for tho next ten years, thoy will
have no cause to bo ashamed Of the
mental attainmcnts Of their children.
About three hundred people att
tended this exhibition, showing the
interest they felt in schools. Such
meetings do good. They excite
the people to thought and action.
Let every school in Union initiate
the example of Mr.. Brown, and get
tho patrons and pupils together
and have a good time. @.
