The stockholders and directors Of this road
will meet tonight at Abbcvifie. PrcSdcn,
Bowen, nnd Mr.. Schofcld aud his son, came
by the midday train yesterday, and occupied
quarters in the New Hotel.
Mr.. SchOfcld is the centre OF attraction
Just now, and for q little while his presence
created quite t!uttcr Oh our streets ycStrr'
day. The news Of lis arrival quickly spread
abroad. Everybody asked what news he
brought, but nuECdy has been able To answer
the question. Being called upon ut his
room In the New Hotel, Ec said 10 his
callers that he was "cXtrrmciy busy that he
would have Il report 10 make a. the meeting
tomorrow" Dut never a hint have we heard
as to the money which he has secured, If any
TO the outsider all Is darkness, as yet. Bul
enthusiastic railroad men are iub;lant, and
even the doubling ThomaScs are anNiou'!N
looking for peg on which To hang hope o
The final success of the road.
Our own opinion is, If Mr.. Schofcld has
,nnde arrangements for many millions o
dollars, that the Company might make Il good
trade with the Georgia Central system. IlaN'
ing n chartered line, with rights of way SC.
cured. and much gra ling already done, il
take the money. give n good honl for the
faithful execution Of Il contract to finish tn,
road, aud commence ut Troy and build il
through to some point in Kentucky. We
have no authority 10 nuke this suggestion
but 1t occurs to us tia. the Georgia Central
would be glad TO have the line, it Mr. Scho
ficlI would furnish tie money with which
80 buildi it..
SIC are not informed as to what business
will come before the meeting of Stockholders
to vary the terms upon which the SubScrip
ton was voted by Abbcvillc. We had tn,
promise of the Co;npany's officers that OUl
bonds would not BE- called for uatil the roa(
was finished to AbbeNilc.
There is whisper in the air to tho e!lcc;
that Mr. Schoncld was heard to say some
thing on the cars yesterday which left Tho
impression that he had come to Abbcville tC
lave the TAX lcSacd and the bonds issued by
our town, so that the Company might "havt
their assets well in hand.'' Tho faith Of tho
Company is pledged not to ask for our bond,
until we "coud hear the railroad whistle.
If these bonds are issued, except i'm strict com
piance with the terms on which they were
voted, we believe we are Il doomed people. Tho
faith of the leaders of the movement ha,
been pledged against lcvying the tax or iSSu
ing the bou.ls before "wc hear the railroad
whistle" We shall watch events with inter
est.

1t would be better for us if we consider the
manure made on the farm as crop; and II Is
strange that We do not do so. fol 1t Is pro-
duet OF the farm and has money value rs
much us rorn or hay or cotton. When we
once consider manure rs crop, We will take
lust as much pride In making big crop Of
manure as of corn and we Will no moro al
low part of the manure crop 10 go to waste
than We would part of the wheat or hay crop.
Generally hut little can be charged against
the production oi the manure crop: all the
cost Is often the expense OF harvesting (Gath-
ering md storing) this crop. On the most fer
tile farms this crop is worth t. the farmer sew
-cra Times The cost of harvesting It. And 1t II
the greatest wonder OF our farming that we
do mol start out in the fall with determine
ton to make Il better manure crop than our
neighb6r ,tS We start out In the spring With
determination to make better oat. potato or
tobacco crop. The rlcanly man will harvest
large manure CROP because he will ghthcr up
all refuse and put II In The compost he;,p. lie
will have clean stables. clean barns, clean

prrScrver OF health. Thus we see that while
the wheat or potato crop supplies strength
and energy, the manure crop, closely gather

ilelncn were much in accord with what has
already been published. From Colonel Bow
ell We learned TINT h" is enthusiastic in the
belief that The Curolina, Cumberland Gapand
Chicago Rlilrad will he built. He says that
The Cincinnati Souihcrn Railroad is now
their friend since the Louisville and Nash
willie Railroad rcscindcd their contract With
his road. It is expected that juErtlcn Will
he made with that road ut Il suitable point,
and that the road will be built from that road
to Aiken or Port Royal. lie is impressed
with the great importance of the route, and
thinks that the country along It's line will
build feeders to it. and thus add Va lie anu I'M
nortancc to this great railroad enterprise
whose prospects are Frightening every day.
Mr.. SchoLcd gave us Il cordial greeting and
talked very freely Oh the subject of the rail-
road and his efforts to build ii. He is no less
hopeful of the final result than his friend Col
oncl Bowen, but he declined to tell where or
when he expected TO go to work, or from
whom he expected to get the money, and fl
nally closed his remarks by telling us to print
nothing that he had said; that to disclose the
plans Of the company and its agent would do
no good and might 90 some harm We then
took our leave; feeling pleased that we had
