A Bridge Across Saluda,

The merchants of Newberry are
waking up to the Importance of put
ting themselves in more convenient
reach of the prosperous and clever
Edgefelders that dwell just over the
border, beyond, in the poetical Ian
guage of j. Y. G., the waters of the
blue Saluda." A meeting of Il e
Merchants Protective Association was
held Tuesday night to take the matter
into consideration. Much interest
was manifested. The Association dis
cussed, among other things, the ques.
ton of the best place or bridge
Bouknight's, Klnard's or Cannon 3
Ferry. A committee was appointed
to visit the several localities and OBJ
tain information regarding location,
probable cost and the feasibility Of
raising the necessary funds. The fol-
lowing merchants compose the com
mittee: B. Fl. Cline, chairman, Geo.

ThePeopIe Whom We are ImpoV-
eriShing Ourselves 10 Educate!

The negroes, whom we white peo.
pie of South Carolina are imrover-
isAing ourselves to educate, met in
Convention in Columbia last week,
and, even more perhaps than in re-
construction times, evinced their dead
ly and pndying hatred to the white
race. The object of the Convention
was to elect eighteen delegates to
the Republican Presidential Nomi
mating Convention to be held in Chi
cago on the 3rd June. Miller, yell
low man of Beaufort, whose dnty it
was to call the body to order, made
an opening speech of bitter and
threatening malice. The convict and
periurer Smalls was made Chairman.
Edgefeld County was represented by
the following delegation: Paris Sim
kins, David Harris, lr., BristOw Vel
dell, Alec Raiford and David Ora
ham. The Arthur banner was the
one that seemed to wave most promi
nently. Paris Simkins introduced
the following, which was adopted
Resolued, That in view of the embar
RAISING circumstances growing out OF
the assassination of the late lamented
President James A. Garfield and the
extremely delicate position in which
the present incumbent President Ches-
ter A. Arthur was placed, we, tie
Republicans Of South Carolina, in
Convention assembled, do heartily
endorse the administration OF Presi
dent Arthur as wise, economical and
Just, without reproach or stain, and
perfectly harmonious in all its depart
ments.
The delegates at large chosen by
this Convention are: E. NJ. Brayton,
Robert Smalla, W. N. Taft and Sam
uel Lee.
The following District delegates
were elected:
lst District--J. M. Freeman, COL
ored, of Charleston; E. A. Webster,
white, of Oranpeburg.
2iDistrict-Paris Simkins, colored
of Edgefeld; S. E. Smith, colored
of Aiken.
Sd Distriot-E. F. Blodgett and
R w Boone, both white and both
from Newberry;
4th District-Wison Cook, colored
of Greenville; G. M. Wilder, color
ed, OF Richlaud.
5th District-C. G. Mccoy, white,
of Chester; E. Il. Dlbble, colored, OF
Kershaw.
9Th District-D. T. Corbiu, white,
of Charleston E H. Deas, colored
of Darlington.
7th District-T. B Johnston, white,
of Charleston; W. H. Thompson,
colored, of Berkley.
A large portion of this noble eigh
teen, who will go to Chicago, are of
fceholders under Arthur. This shows
how their first vote will be ; and after
that they will be governed by the
strongest developments.

The population of South Carolina
is 9 per cent. of the United States

three times the average illiteracy OF
the States and Territories. Her pro
portion of the educational fund under

per cent. If the Blair bill pass the

A New Route. via EdgeGeld, TO
Charleston.

We copy the following encouraging
article from the Greenwood depart.
ment of the Abbeville Press and
Banner, and we believe it to be in,
spired By Senator Callison. Let us
bear from you on this subject. Sen.
ator: -
We are informed by representative
men from Edgefeld county, that there
is lively agitation of the subject of
building a connecting line of railroad
from Greenwood to Edgefeld Court
House, with view of extending it
to Aiken By the line that is already
graded from Edgefeld, by way Of
Trenton: thus making direct line
to Charleston. 1t is claimed that it
will be forty miles nearer to Charles
ton, than either of the other lines. by
Augusta or Columbia, from Green
wood. The distance to Edgefeld
Court House about thirtv-th, ee miles
This is the route recommended by
Jonn G Calhoun years ago, as design
ed by nature for the location of
railroad, and that it would be built,
That prophesY is about to be fulfilled.
It is level ridge from beginning to
end without running stream across
it. 1t will develop large and fertile
section of intervening country, and
when connection is made at Edge6eld
it will utilize the road already graded
from that point to Aiken and not
likely to be of service in any other
connection. We have often called
the attention of our friends at Edge
field 20 the Importance Of making
this connection, and now the matter
is to be urged upon them in more
substantial way; if they are wise
they will not lose the opportunity Of
ef.cting it. The South Carolina
Railroad should lend helping hand.
and so should Charleston It would
bring into competition a third line at
this point Of intersection Of two great
rival lines. The Importance Of con-
Meeting at this point ls enhanced by
the prospects of an extension across
the mountains to connect with the
great systems o! road running north
west and northeast. Our E1gefeld
friends need rely no longer on any
other outlet; if any other was proba-
BILE it must be very remote period,
while this within their reach, and
can be accomplished at an early day.

most gorgeous specimen OF the Eng,
lish dude ever imported. He ia
rather thickly set and about the me
dium height, but his waist is com
pressed by corsets, while his shou
dera are disproportioned BY overpad
ding. He has tremendous black Il
beard, and hishair is artistically puff
ed. Carefully cooked on his left ear
is bell.crowned hat of a grotesq ue
pattern, and altogether it would be
quite unsafe for him tc encounter a
crowd of American gamins.
