Savannah Valley Railroad Meeting.

Pursuant to tho call OF President Ltti-
mer, meeting Of the corporators Of the
Savannah Valley Railroad convened in Ma.
sonic Hall at Lowndesyille on the 9th ol
March. The President called the meeting
to order. A call of the roll showed the fol-
lowing corporators present, to wit: w. w.
Humphreys, D. L. Hall, VIM. O'Briant, j.
NJ. Latimer, Sr., J. T. Barnes, J. B. Moseley,
J. P. Young, T. Baker, George 5. Burditt,
J. B. Leroy. s. s. Baker, DR.. ]. T. Baskins,
a. J. Clinkscales and w. B. Clinkscales.
The Secretary, Maj. ]. 3. Murray, being
absent, ". w. Humphreys was elected
Secretary pro tenn. Tho minutes of the last
meeting and the amended charter werc
read.
President Latimer, in stating the object,
OF the meeting, alluded to the obstacles in
the original charter, which prevented pro-
gress towards securing subscriptions to the
capital stock OF the Road, and which were
happily removed. in the amended charter.
He stated the object of the meeting to be
mainly for the purpose of conference and
consultation. looking to the adoptiono Of
such measures as would secure an early
commencement of the great work.
Capt. ]. T. Barnes made an earnest and
spirited address, and was followed by w.
w. Humphreys, ]. NJ. Latimer and Others.
all the speeches breathing q rcsolute de-
termination to build the Road at all haz,
ards.
Tho following resolutions were then adop-
ted unanimously ard with enthusiasm:
Resided, That the construction of the
Savannah Valley Railroad is not only prac-
ticable, but a necessity to the proper devel-
opment of the fertile country to be traversed
by it. affortling as it will easy ingreSs and
e.re.s, and promising swift and cheap
transit to the valuable products OF a section
now remote from. all railroad facilities.
Resolrcd, That the cost of constructing
this Road, under the plan now adopted. in-
yolving IN increase OF taxation for three
wears only by the towns and townships i'm
mcdiately interested, will be insignificant
compared with the many advantages to
flow from its speedy completion.
Resolrcd, That not until the last rail is
laid, the last spike driven, and the first
shriil whistle OF the engine is heard pro-
claiming the completion of this Road, will
we abatc our zeal or suffer our energies 10
relax in this great enterprise.
Following the adoption Of the resolutions
waa free conference and interchange oi
opinions among the corporators and the
friends OF the Road present, developing O
resolute determination to so forward with
the enterprise and press it to US speedy Q
completion rs possible.
The meeting then adjourned to meet on
the first Wednesday in May next, the Itl
OF the month, at Lowndesville, at which
time it i, hoped every corporator will be
present, rs the details of submitting tht
question of subscriptions to the towns ant
townships will be arranged.

The Abbev;.le Medium flies off at d tan

The Abberi!le Medium flies off at d tan
gent in consequence OF the little local about
Abbeville published in the 1NTELLIGENcrR
two weeks ago. There was no insult inten-
dcd for the people Of Abbeyille, and the
lueliunts good sense, if it has any, ought to
have prevented it from getting into rage
over it. Our contemporaries wrath seems
to be drawn forth principally by the state
meat that Abbevillc has "seven bsrroons
and four churches, and of that they seem to
be proud" The information upon which
this paragraph was based was obtained from
the ledium's own columns, and while the
latter portion of the sentence might have
justified q retort there was no occasion for
any feeling about it. Tho Medium has also
fallen into its usual bad taste by pitching
into the people of Anderson because it docs
not like what the INTELLIGENcER said. The
people of this town are not responsible for
our remarks, and if our contemporary had
given the subject moments thought no
such policy would have been resorted to.
We have no harsh words for the Medium,
though it pronounces US "heathen," nor
have We any censure for the people of Abb
beville. they are as class intelligent, re-
fined and much to be admired.
We regret to learn Of the death OF Mr..
Thomas w. Russell, which occurred Mt his
residence at Easley, in Pickens County,
one day last week, after lingering illness OF
consumption. Mr.. Russell was son Of
Mai Thomas Fl. Russell, of this County,
and was highly respected and influential
citizen of the community in which he lived,
and his death will be ]amented by large
circle of warm friends in Pickens County
rs we'll as by en- extensive family connec-
ton in this County. He moved from his
homo in the Shutdown section to Easley
soon after the completion Of the Air Line
Railroad, where he hes since been merchan-
dising. His manly bearing and eminent
business qualifications won for him the
esteem and confidence of all with whom
he came in contact. lie leaves wife and
several children.

A NIHILIST.


A recent number of the Chicago Fri
bune contains a two-column account OF
an interview with Il Russian Nihilist
named Stilfel, lie was found in the Of
flee OF Mr.. HALL, the Agent Of the st.
Paul e. Sioux City Railroad Company,
in Chicago, looking for land. lie is a
Young n,n about % years Of age from
Odessa, and is a wealthy Russian who
WAS compelled to leave the country for
concealng Il friend 1T his house to save
him from arrest. lie claims that the
Nihillsts are now better organized than
the government, and their object is to
secure il constitutional government tor
RUSSIA. Mr.. S. thinks the war between
Russia and England is nearat hand and
that Russia will prevail. The only
wonder to us is that il has been delayed
50 long. The treaty Of Berlin. as we
claimed ut the time, only secured an ar
mistice, and the war will come on in
earnest before long.
Mr.. Stieffel expects to locate colony
on the lands of the st. Paul and Sioux
CITY road. In a few weeks he will be
joined by party of Russians and they
will examine the lands, make their Sc
lection and prepare for settlement next
Spring.
If Mr.. S. comes this way we hope to
SEE him. We are in full sympathy with
the Nihilists in their political demands
and should like to see live one.
