A. Farmers Railroad Views.

Mr.. EDIToR: see that we have a
chance Of petitioniDg for an additional
subscription for tho completion Of the
Savannah Valley Railroad, aud | think
we, as the owners OF real estate, should
not lose any time IN the wUrk. for il
there is anything that q ndersor is need
ing moro than anything else, it must be
this railroad. Now, brother farmers,
know that there are some Of you opposed
to building this road by taxation, aud
am opposed TO building railroads by tax
alton, but l think this road is an excep-
ton. 1u the first place, We have paid
nearly three.fourths Of our tax, and
Should not now lose the road rather than
pay the other fourth. None of US deny
that it will naturally reduce freights,
make better market, and greatly en-
hance the value of our property i'u.
this is not half. We have lived long
enough to know that one Improvements
naturally calls Tor another, aud when we
get this road we will be almost sure 10
build factory: which would be one Of
the greatest benefits to Anderson and tho
surrounding country that could occur
II We hesitate aud lose time, there will
be other railroads built near us, and then
if We do build our road it will not do
near 30 much good for US as it will DO
now. We claim our County to be one of
the leading Counties of the State, but if
we let such opportunities as this pass we
will not be considered 30 long think
it is our duty to the rising generation
and to our country to improve it, and not
lag behind other communities. 1t is not
the man that looks behind that succeeds,
but it is the man that looks forward
The South has been looked down upon
since the war as being very stupid, but
think we have not had justice, for we
have done remarkably we'll, considering
the disasters of the war. We claim to
be a growing country, and | think we
have just fairly started The South is
almost sure to be the leading portion Of
the Union in a few years. 1t is talked Of
far and near, and this has brought the
amount Of capital that has been invested
in South Carolina in the last few years
in factories, sc
This is our time TO advance The inter
es,s of Anderson County, and unless we
make use of it We will lose by our neg
lcct. do hope that every owner of
real estate will look carefully into this
matter and study it thoroughly The
| building of this railroad will give us
better market for our timber, our pro-
duce-puch as corn, fodder, beef, butter,
&c.-and we can ship our cotton and
buy our goods aud fertilizers cheaper,
which will enable us to save more money
out of our crops than we can do now.
1t will pay us we'll to build the Savannah
Valley Railroad.

The Free Schools.

Mr.. EDITOR: suppose it il admitted
by almost every one the Free School sys.
ten OF this State is far frcm being salts.
factory in its operation. Now, Mr.. Edi.
tor, | wish TO offer three or four sugges.
tions which, if they could in any way be
embraced in the form of amendments to
the School Law, would, in my opinion,
render it much more effective: l. That
the Free School Trustees of no School
District should be allowed to locate any
Free Common School for shorter term
than eight scholastic months, nor with q
less number than twenty-five subscribed
atholars. OF course, it is not expected
that the free school fund would be
sufficient to pay the full salary Of a
tencher for the term Of eight montba !;
but this fund could be supplemented by
tuition fees from the employers.
2. That each School District be
allowed the benefit of its own taxes paid
for school purposes, to the exclusion Of
all others.
3 That individual subscribers to the
Free Schools be credited with the money
received from the Free School Fund in
proportion to their subscription-e. g., if
A subscribe two scholars, while b sub
scribes one, then let A be credited with
twice the amount of Free School money
on his account that B il.
4. In order that teachers may be
enabled to collect their tuition fees un-
obstructed by homestead exemptions, let
their accounts come uudor the head Of
personal labor.

MAS0N'S COTTON PICKER
A visit to tho Inventors yvorhshop-Tho
Wonderful Machine Described.

A recent visit to the workshop of Mr..
Charles I. Mason, Jr.. of this place,
convinced me more than ever of the
truth of the old adage, "seeing is believ.
ing" Before inspecting the "Harves.
ter" myself, / doubted the possibility of
any mschiae being able 10 discriminate
between open bols of cotton and those
unopen, or partially matured. 1t seemed
too much like human reason. But after
spending half hour with the intelligent
inventor, and seeing the operation of the
Harvester" with my own eyes, l am
satisfied that this machine can do all it's
best friends ever claimed for it.
The picking portion Of Mason's har.
vester is composed of two cylinders or
drums. made Of wood and iron, into
which are stuck at regular intervals
things much resembling corn cobs.
These corn cobs are hollow; they are
made OF sheet brass plates, seven in
number, which are soldered together,
making the hollow corn cob. These
plates are sbout one inch wide an6 tia
Length of the cob about eight inches
They are cut into numerous openings
and the parts cut are not removed but
bent slightly inwards and the ends
sharpened. The things when finished
presents the appearance of q brass corn
cob, with fine teeth concealed just below
the surface. These cobs rsvolve each on
its own axis Ia bar of fine stesl,) and tho
drums into which the cobs are stuck also

theee tooth. filled cobs, are placed 60 near

The Pickens Sentinel says that the
negroes in that section have the Arkanras
fever, and it is probable that quite num-
Der will try their fortunes in that State.
That is all right. With our improved
agricultural machinery we can spare
good many of them without serious DAM
age. 1t is, however, likely that when
they get out there their fever will be
gpeedilv converted into childs.

The City of Greenville has ssnt Col.
James L. Orr to Washington to urge
before Congress the passage of the bill
to erect United States Court House in
that City. 1t is understood that Col.
Evins will not be candidate for re.elec-
ton to Congress, and Greenville could not
do better than secure Col. Orr's election
from the Fourth District TO represent her

1t is all very pleasant to see different
gentlemen over the State complimented
with nominations for Governor, but it is
apparent that Governor Thompson will
be renominated this year without oppo.
sitioG. He was elected two years ago
without seeking the Office, and has made
an acceptable Executive. His renomi-
nation is o foregone conclusion before the
Convention meets, and therefore it 10 not
likely that any other name will be pre-.
gented.
