'J he voters of the county are called upon to decide whether the county shall subscribe $100,000 each to assist in building two railroads through the county. It is impossible to say just where these lines of road will run. The general direction of the Cape Fear and Cincinnati is from Camden to "VVinnaboro and on to Union. The \V. \Y\ & C. will run in the general direction from Rocky Mount to Alston. It is impossible to tell whose plantation will be touched. The question of voting subscriptions to those roads is a business matier, cold business. Will the two roads benefit the county enough to repa> the outlay? We do not think anybody will question the statement that many sections of the county, now almost valueless, will,be developed, and that there will be a general rise in values. Kail roads certainly develop a country, and one thiug greatly nettled in this county is to bring our surplus lands into demand. The building of railroads will do more to bring this about than an\thing else. nif? jfilVWlon Hiil up Asaic.

S. Senate Senator ' Hampton said that his long public serI vice would soon close forever; that he J had never sought ollioe but hail always ! gladlv given his time and whatever i - n j ability he possessed to his country. | In the long li>t of distinguished sons ot South Carolina no oi.e nas eoninouted more to the proud history of tha State than Hampton, in fact, it may tie said that his life has been spent in the public service. As a vouii" man he i | represented his native canity in the i S'ate Legislature, both in the House j and Senate. When the State with! drew from the Union Wade Hampton ! was umon" the first to volunteer in I ? | her defence and continued to battle for j her rights until Lee surrendered, i During the war he rendered most disj tinguished service and rose to the tank ! of Lipu'enant-General. In the weary I days of reconstruction Gen. Hampton's: voice was raised in protest against the great iniquities perpetrated upon his people by the powers at Washingtotl. T ! 1S7r. he from his . ,*nem y"rr>^_ , _ . Tsgo'tUKi that S that revoluti(m~sfc-&* successful is due | more to the conservative wisdom and | courage of i;s leader than anything j else. Hampton was the only man in j the State in whom weie combined the J elements which made success possible. | In the National Senate he has served ! twelve vears which have been distin guished by sound liberal statesmanship. In retiring to the private walks of life Senator Hampton shall carry with him the consciousness of having been true to hi* people and true to himself. It is admitted by those who compassed his defeat that he would have been reelected had he followed the methods of practical and personal politicia n. But Hampton is a statesman not a politician, and there are thousands of 1 voters in ouuui tarujum aiiAtuud 1^1 ! ait opportunity to show the battlescarrcd warrior and statesman that they prefer statesmanship to partisan politics. Their lore; and confidence shall remain with him in his retirement . Why the Kail read Should be Ballt. It is a conspicuous feature of the progrets of civilization during this centrry that 're are desirous of aiore I direct communication and intercourse with the outside world, and while we people of Fairfield enjoy railroad facilities north and south, the eastern and western portions of our county j have never been traversed uv a ranj road. There are many of our people ignorant of the nature of the lands and the mode of living of our people in these last named sections. It is almost safe to say that only those who have been candidates know fully oar county. The railroad proposed and which vrc call upon all of our citizens to support by their rote* will bring our people closer together, make us more liomogenious and advertise what we are to ourselves and to the stranger who might wish to cast his lot among us. Again we must act ilong side of the march of the system of things which prevail in our day and generation. Kail roads seem to be the fashion of our present civilization, and irheu such is the case, to be out of the fash iow is mort tkan to wear an unfashionable hat #r coat, it is to be out of the fashion of building up material interests and of adopting the methods of securing the * access which attends this system of things. We have fine lands in Fairfield, vt? jvc a good climate, no ej)idemic* visit us, but we have too'few people and it ssetns that there is no better way of bringing more people among u? than by advertising what ear county is. The mosi effective vray of doing this is by having ?ur county in ? S*L . t - i.! K U connection WIIU me uui^ue nuriu. The da\ s of stages aud buggies and wagon* are going br. The telegraph and railroad mark our day, and if we i would be prepared to catch the happy i skirts of chance a;id breast the wave of J circumstance in this active quick movi ing age, we muet be ready with all the I facilities which are now demanded. Columbia has her new 'iailroads, Chester has her new railroads, York : has her railroads, Lancaster has not been content to Jive without a railroad, , Newberry has her new railroads, and shall we people of Fairfield sit still ! surrounded by our go-ahead neighj bors and "hug the delusive phantom i of hope" until we are ... d commercially hand and foot? T? use a ' 1 slang, but not the less truthful saying, . I we must "get in the swim" or we will be so tar behind in a few years that we will not have hope or energy .(enough to have a railroad, even il (j some company should offer to build ^! one for us for nothing.

Tlie Coinage of Silver. l'1? s-:" i"'nn fniiuitro f t' si! JLUC U4J1 IVl J i vv, ! voi', which has passed the Senate ami i goes to tiia Iloufc, will work a radical i change in our monetc-rv s-vstem, bv I j a!lo\vii'?f (very person who has silver | tv> take it to the mint and demand and i receive one coined dollar in gold or ! silver for (very unit weight of 412& grains of silver nine-tenths fine. At i 0 - - ? . .,,>f n|l,,n. present isc jjoveruiijcm uuts ma auwii ! free coinage, but purchase? 4.500,000 ! ounces oi silver every month and coins i on i(s own account. The bunion price J ot' silver i^ on an average not more than 70 cenis in gold fcr 412-J grains, so that > lie government makes about a quarter of a dollar on every silver j dollar it coins. The < fleet of free ! coinage will of course be to raise the ! price of silver bullion at least tempo! rarilv, for when any one can sell 412-i J grains of it to the government for a ' dollar he will not consent to take much lees than this from anybody else. Cut J the opponents of free coinage hold that when this weight of silver is called a dollar by the government, people will buy silver from abroad at cheap rates and present it to the mint, while those who have gold dollars will simply lock them tip, or ship them over to Europe to buy silver with, in which case gold j will cease to be uioney in circulation j here; and a contraction of several j hundred millions will result. This is j precisely what the advocates of an increased volume of money do not want. Should the load of silver be too great for the United States te ^.rry ar. a par with goiu, the spectacle will be presented of the United S'.ates becoming a silver country, just as it was ftom 1SG2 to 1878 a paper country; and since European business men are not compelled by law to take American silver dollars, they will receive them only at their bullion value in exchange for gold, and exchanges between the two countries will be fixed at this ratio. Let us assume that by means of tho lice coinage of silver that me'el is increased in value, until 4124 grains will >>c worth 90 cents in gold in England. A Xew York merchant wishing to buy ?1,000 worth of goods at English prices from London must send over about $1,100 in silver, or else receive lor i,uuu Oliver uoners only as much as 900 ?old dollars would purchanse. 60 if cotton brings 10 cents in New York in U. S. currency it will sell for only 9 cents with freight added in Liverpool, and when English goods are brought back in exchange the farmer will discover that he has gotten only as much as he got for 9 cents before the passage of the free coinage act. A good deal is heard about the times when cotton sold for 2o cents a pound, in greenbacks It must be remembered that greenbacks then were at a heavy discount, and moreover that com soul for a dollar and eighty cents a bushel and crushed sugar for 25 cents a pound, while all other things were high in proportion. Juggle ring with money will not make us rich; for what we really exchange i& comniodies for commodities, and money comes in only to facilitate the exchange. An inflated currency makes the payment of debts more easy, but it makes borrowing somewhat more difficulty; for /To ?Af < !)!-p in lr>nd when they do not know what kind of money tliev will be paid back in. We believe that prices have recently been too low in proportion to the debts incurred in past time and some expansion will give relief and not be unjust But in avoiding Sovlla we should steer clear of the Charybdis fiat money and debased coinage. Silver has been abused and badly treated. But the absolute free coinage of silver is not unlike in principle the absolute cnfranchismment of the negro in 1SG5. lie got "his rights," but the country came near being lost. It would be wise to proceed with expansion regularly and by some definite plan such as is now in operatWn. If thought proper, let the government purchase more than 4,500,000 ounces of silver a mouth..But .the gates "'should not be thrown wide open all at once. A QUESTION OF NAMES. (Greene Hie Nacs. Our excellent contemporary, the y*>nv nn/i Courier. <?ives us a valuable history of the names of the counties of this State and suggests that the next new county formed should be named ''Calhoun." We confess to some surprise at this untimely suggestion. , Calhoun is out of date and "fashion. He had idea6 regarding personal and political conduct which lator day statesmanship, endorsed by a popular rote, repudiates. We have practically turned our backs upon all he lored anil represented. The school of the time teaches that to obtain honor and place our young men must abandon the methods and purposes of Calhoun.
