are identical with ours. Looking,
then, to the simple construction
of the railroad, we can safely assume
TINT 100000 is the amount to be
provided between Chester and
Winnsboro.
Let me say, Messrs. editors, in
concluding this lotter, that it is not
my intention to ignore our enters
prising sister town of Ridgeway.
Knowing full well that sho will
certainly insist upon having "a
place in the picture" I have con-
sidorcd we'll the probable line, and
am convinced that the grading
hence to Ridgcway will be even
lighter por mile than that to Chos-
ter. The ridge is 80 very smooth
that the @. @. & A. r. r. with it's
exceptionally easy grade, shows ex~
ceodingly light work; and oven
this can be greatly lossened Ivy our
mora accommodating grade and
curvature. If, then, Ridgeway in.
sists on being counted in, we must
simply add to our estimate $4,000
for the twelve miles lying between
us, and the problem to be solved
stands thus:
From Chester to Winnsboro,
say. y...............S .SlO4,00O.
From Chester to Ridgeway,
say. ..............S .Sl52,OU0.
invite our citizens to study
these figures; not to be scared by
them, but rathor to prepare to meet
them !, and thus secure the in
estimable blessings that earnest and
united effort will certainly deserve,
and must assuredly win.

TEE GEORGIA DEBT.

The action of the Georgia Constitu-
tional Convention upon the State debt
question has been very much misrepre-
sented. The. Convention recognized the
settlement of the debt as made by the
Legislature, except that it declared the
endorsement of the State on certain rail-
road bonds invalid, because it was made
by the Bullock government without the
State receiving one cent for it, and was
really about such a debt as the Blue
Ridge Railroad scrip, but without even
as much justice as part Of that had.
The holders of these bonds have no cause
to complain, for their debt is as good as
it was before the State endorsed it and as
they paid nothing for the States endorse
mentthey havelostnothing. Neither have
the repudiationists any right to point to
Georgia as an example, for she has repu-
dated no just debt. She has done ex-
actly what South Carolina ought to do,
namely, separated her just debt from the
fraudulent debt, attempted to be i'm
posed upon her people.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1877-08-30
DIVORCE LAW.

The recent Constitutional Convention
of Georgia took a step in the right direc.
ton when it attempted to restrict the
growing practice of granting matrimonial
divorces upon slight pretexts, and al.
though the provisions of It's new consti-
tuition are still too lax, yet reform in
the divorce system of that State is likely
to be effected. The present constitution
al law stands thus:
SECTION XV.-Paragraph l. No total
divorce shall be granted except on the
concurrent verdicts of two juries, at diff
ferent terms of the court.
Par. 2. When a divorce is granted, the
jury rendering the final verdict shall de-
termine the rights and disabilities of the
parties.
The defect about this as a constitution
al provision is, that it leaves too much
discretion in the hands of the Legislature,
who may enact dozen causes for which
divorces may be granted, but we think
the idea involved in the above provision
is good one, and might very profitably
be engrafted into our State Constitution
with great public advantage. Loose di-
vorce laws are the greatest curse coun-
try can be afflicted with, and while our
laws upon this subject are not so lax as
some of the Western and Northern States,
yet they are entirely too much of an ap-
proximation to them. The right of di-
vorce on the ground of desertion should
be repealed, and then no divorce should
be granted except upon the concurrent
verdicts of two juries at successive terms
of the Court. As our,land now stands, a
husband and wife who may become dis
satisfied may separate for the term oftwo
years, and then obtain decree of sepa-
ration upon such terms as will enable
both of them to marry again. Such leg
islation as this should be corrected as soon
as possible, for it is contrary to the scrip
tural provisions relative to marriage, and
is calculated to produce degeneracy of
public morals. The rights of the courts
to interfere in the marriage contract
should be strictly limited to accord with
the Biblical provisions. This change in
our old laws was made by the political
miscreants who focked to South Carolina
lust after the war from those States which
have such laws, and our law makers owe
it to themselves and to the purity of the
moral character of our people to repeal
this statute which places the will of man
above the mandates of the Divine Law
giver. We may look the world over and
in every country which has loose divorce
laws we will find proaigate and i'm
moral people. Then let US correct the
evil in South Carolina while it is yet
small.

OUR GRANGE COLUMN.
Under the Supervision Of the Executive
Committee Of Pomona Grange.

This week we complete the list of sub
ordinate Oranges who pay up promptly.
The following additional Oranges are
Square on the books" to June 3Oth,
1877, viz: No. 176, PIP, 266.
We have purposely delayed publish
ing the list of delinquents in order to
allow them all the time we could to
arrange themselves in line. But we have
been disappointed, and here is the roll
of delinquents Delinquent for one quar-
ter, No. II; delinquent for two quarters,
Nos. 154, l55, 235, 300; delinquent for
three quarters, No. ZIG; delinquent for
five quarters, No. 213; delinquent for
six quarters, No. 263, 294, 343.
Now, brethren, are these delinquent
Oranges to continue in this dormant
state. We know that the materials of
which most Oranges are composed in our
country do not deserve to be character
lied as dormants. And we know just as
we'll that there are good, active, Jealous
men and women in each one of these
Oranges, who, with a we'll directed effort,
could give life to these "dry bones," and
before the close of another quarter ap-
pear before the Oranges of this County
on higher roll. Will not some one,
two or three members of these Oranges
arouse themselves and make an effort to
revive and reanimate the drowsy breth-
rem. It is only necessary that life and
activity shall be shown by few, and it
will extend to others like electricity. Or
if there is not one man in any one of
these Oranges who will go forward to the
rescue, surely the female members do
not forget that the order is devoted to
them and their offspring, and their hopes
of future prosperity is concentrated in the
success of the Grange movement. Let
one woman in each of these Oranges
make one earnest effort to revive and re-
animate, and she will very soon have the
pleasure of seeing other kindred spirits
flocking to her assistance. If she fails
to arouse the dormant lords, then let her
request meeting of the Grange on a
certain day, and notify the Master of Po-
mona Grange, and she will send help in
time of need.

invitation in the following dispatch:
FABIAN HOUSE,
NEW HAMPSHIRE, August 20.
To Hon. James G. Blaine, augusta,
Maiae: I greatly regret that my inabil-
ity to accept at present Governor Conner's
kind invitation to visit the State of Maine,
will deprive me of the pleasure of enjoy
ing the hospitalities you have so cordial
ly profered.
Among the speeches telegrapbed is this
one. Mr.. Key said: "Ladies and gen
tlemen, have not been accustomed to
New England or its people, and my edu-
cation has not been such as to lead me to
form the best opinion of them, but have
been here several days, and have been so
generously fed and met so many generous
men and women, that am almost ready
to call myself New Englander."
There is another which it is impossible
to restrain oneself from telegraphing
South. Attorney General Devons said:
"I am much obliged to you for this re-
ception. I know that it proceeds from
the depth of the attachment to the Con-
stitutioon that the people of New Hamp-
shire have always felt. I know they
fought nobly and bravely to build the
foundation of our government, and
know as we'll as they that they are as
ready to protect it. 1t is happy cir
cumstRnce that New Hampshire has no
battle field on its soil, although she has
made herself felt everywhere in every
BATTLE"
