A cotton factory is occasionally talked of
on our streets. Talk does not amount to
much, however, unless backed by some or
ganized effort. We have been talking long
enough. We should awake from our
lethargy and go to work. We have the
capital in our County, and all that is need.
ed is for some one to take the iniliatory
steps towards organizing stock company.
Enough has been said about the advantages
to be derived from cotton factory, and we
believe our people are willing and anxious
to put their money into such an enterprise.

A prominent merchant on Granite Row
informs us that he had some customers in
his store the other day that resided sixteen
miles beyond IIartwell, Ga. They bought
a good bill of goods, and were delighted
with our market. They didn't come over
the free ferry" Bro. Mc8ill.-INTElL1-
GENcER, lst inst. Don't doubt it, Charlie
boy. Parties owing the Hartwell mor
chants are fleeing to Sand Mountain i'll the
Alabam' every day. Besides We have
collecting ofticor posted at the free ferry
night and day."-Hart,seN Sun. If your
collecting officer is very successful, Bro.
Me-, yen should enlarge your force and
post one ut every ferry. Probably our
merchants would be willing to pay part
Of the officers salary. provided they will
agree to look after an occasional absconder
from this side.
Tho Columbia correspondent of the Au-
gusta Chronicle & Constit,aionali,t has the
following to say about Maj. Murray, and
the Local takes the liberty of publishing 1t
In these columns:. 1.-THE election OF Major
E. B. Murray, Of Anderson, as Director
of the Columbia and Greenville Railroad,
is fitting and deserved tribute to his emf
nent abilities. Major Murray is young
man, but has already attained u position in
the State OF which many men much older
might justly be proud. He is lawyer and
leading member of the South Carolina
House of Representatives, and was prom
inent candidate for the Speakership last
November. He Is the editor Of the An
derson IsrELL1aENcER, and has made his
payer q power in the State. He is one oi
the most promising of the rising young
men of South Carolina, and will in time
reach the highest round of the ladder
