A CONGRESSIONAL friend has placed
THE ENQUIRER under obligations for
a copy of what Is commonly known
as the Jefferson Bible" recently pub
lished by act Of congress This book
is the work Of Thomas Jefferson and
consists Of compilation of Gospel
texts In such manner as to give the
compiler's idea Of 1.-The Life and Nor
ais of Jesus Of Nazareth" The origi-
nal object Of Mr.. Jefferson Is sup
posed to have been to put the gospels
In such shape as would insure their
being more readily understood by the
Indians. He proceeded about the
work by taking printed volumes, clip
ping out such portions as he deemed
unessential for his purpose, and past
ing the remaining portions in regular
order on blank pages. Greek, Latin,
French and English texts appear side
by side. The government has had
the entire work reproduced by photo
lithographic process, and bound In
red Morocco with leather tooling.
In all 5000 copies were issued-3,000
for the use Of the senate and 5000
for the use Of the house. 1t Is prob
ably the most popular publication
that has ever been issued from the
government printing Office, and people
who have been favored with copies
have a right to consider themselves
quite fortunate.

ton in direct touch with the coal fields
of Virginia would In itself be an
achievement Of the first consequence
to the port Of Charleston and to Its
business interests.
While It Is not to be expected that
the enterprise the Southern now has IN
mind Is going to be rushed through to
completion to the neglect OF all other
undertakings that system has In hand,
there Is every reason to believe that
the statements made in the dispatch
we have quoted from are worthy OF
credence. It has never been more than
a question OF time before the road had
to be extended. In its present shape
1t Is practically worthless to the
Ss uthern. Developed by an addition
which would carry its rails into Ten
ipessse and Virginia it's usefulness
would be great, and its future would
be bright and big with possibilities.
Should It once break through the
mountains which now stand as a wall
between 1t and the productive west 1t
would have to be reckoned with In
the future when the movement OF
freight from the interior to the South
Atlantic seaboard Is under considera-
ton. It might readily become a great
trunk line reaching from. Cincinnati to
this city, and providing an outlet for
much Of the southwark going trafhc
which the Panama canal Is expected
to develop. But even should 1t never
extend a mile beyond johnson City II
would prove most important addition
to our railroad facilities.

ON TO TENNESSEE.

The following editorial from the
News and Courier Of yesterday, is of
no less interest to the people Of York
county, than to the Charleston people:
It was announced In a press dis
patch which we printed yesterday that
a corps Of Southern railway engineers
will take the field on Monday for the
purpose Of locating a railroad line be-
tween Marion, N. c., and johnson
City, Tenn" 1t was added that "the
proposed road will make possible a
short line between the Virginia coal
fields and the seacoast at Charleston"
We have long since become weary
Of commencing railroad projects that
never go beyond the prospective stage
of construction, but 1t appears to be
reasonable to presume that the pres
ent enterprise is not of this character.
Marion, n. c., Is the western terminus
Of that branch Of the Southern which
was formerly known as the Three
Cs." This line now extends from
Kingville, via. Camden and Blacks
burg to Marion, and as 1t stands Is
neither a promising nor a profitable
piece of property. When it was built
it was intended to form a part Of a
great trunk line between this city and
Chicago, and there can be little ques-
ton that whatever future 1t has de-
pends for success upon its develop
ment in this direction. Extended to
the heart Of the coal fields Of Ten
nessee and Virginia it would become
most important factor in the devel-
opmentof this part and in the devel-
opment of this part and in the devel-
south. In such an event long stride
would have been taken toward provid-
ing Charleston with that through line
to the great Middle West Of which we
have so long dreamed and which
would do so much to solve one Of our
transportation difficulties. But aside
from this fact, the placing Of Charles
