In order to vote next November you must show that you have paid your poll and other taxes at least six mont hs before the election. You can register without showiug your tax receipt, however, and as the commissioners of registration, Messrs. Townes, Dobey, and Cheathaui, are now holding daily sessions in qur town, it would be ad visable fo?" every voter to get his doc uments at once-that is, if he is still a democrat, and if you cant be st ii', be as still as you can. Work on the cotton factory is mov ing on, and the foundations have been laid oit' and the work of excavation be gun.

The num ber of operatives employed, we learn from the officials of the company, will be approximately one hundred aud fifty,increasing our population, prob ably, five hundred, all told. The Railroad Commission at its . meeting last week fixed the passenger rat? on the leading railroads of the State at 3%, cents for first-class and 2^ cents for secoud-class.
