In order to show payment, he presented the assignment by the company, through its president, to M*. L. McCorkle and others, as the "Catawba Railroad Contractors," of the 162 subscriptions, for work to be done, under a resolution. passed by the company, by the said contractors; and also presented an estimate of Mr. C. -S. Dwight, chief engineer of the railroad, that work amounting to $12,735,60 had been done by the said contractors. After discussion by Maj. Finger, Col. Cilley, Judge Mackey, Maj. Hart, Hon. I. D. Witherspoon, Col. Wm. Johnston and others, r the chair ruled? ^ First?That where a subscriber had paid his subscription in full, and satisfied the meeting of that fact, he was entitled to representation in the meeting, though he might not have had a certificate issued to him. Second?That the "Catawba Railroad Contractors" and the "Caldwell Contracting Company" owned the stock to be issued by the railroad company for the work done by them, and the votes must be scaled accord- ' ingty- . . , An appeal was taken from the decision to the meeting, and the decision sustaiued. The following protest was then filed : The undersigned, stockholder's of the Chester and Lenoir Narrow Gauge Railroad Com- 1 ^ puny, present at the general meeting of the said company, held at Dallas N. C., July 10, 1 1879, do hereby protest against the action of i a portion of the stockholders of said company, in excluding from representation in this meeting, as share-holders, certain persons offering to vote in person and by proxy, on account of their not having secured certificates of stock, after they had paid up their certificates in full.

At present everything is exceedingly dull ' about town, and the weather is very hot, with * no rain to coo1 their air for many weeks. 1 It is the thought of all to find some cool I - spot, and already some of our people have left ! for the springs and mountains, northward. 1 Mr. J. II. Smith and wife left last week for ( the mountains of North Carolina. Messrs, George Gage and A. G. Brice, two of our ' young lawyers, took the Chester and Lenoir Railroad for Gastonia, and from there will maKe el LOUI",Ul ntrsLCiu ^ U1 ui vniuima un foot. I regret to learn that the infant of Mr. J, II. Smith died at Flat Rock, N. C., yesterday. Last Wednesday, the Lee Light Infantry, commanded by Capt. J. K. Marshall, marched a mile and' a half east of Chester, and had their annual target practice. The day was excessively hot, but the boys stood the march finely, with the exception of Lieut. Miles II. Hunter, who was compelled to take to bed 011 Ins return. The distance fired was 150 yards with the Springfield rifie. Maj. T. S. Mills, Maj. II. M. Ross and Dr. W. S. Gregg acted as judges. Twenty-five men were enrolled for the contest, and three shots each made for the medal, to be worn for one year. This was won by Sergt. X. 11. Alexander, who made a score of 25, in a i?ossible 50. The next prize was a silver goblet, given byMr. E. C. Stahn, for the best single .shot. This was taken by Private Geo. T. Schorb. Score 10?, in a possible 12. The cup was afterwards kindly engraved in ^ handsome style by Mr. R. Brandt. John Dunnovant got the tin cup, at the target shooting. The presentation of prizes was made very gracefully, by Mr. John A. Bradley, Jr. Postmaster T. M. Graham and wife celebrated the 33rd anniversary of their wedding, on the 9th instant. They have 12 children N living and one dead. Three are married, and there are six grand-children. This couple are quite youny and lively, and the old gentleman can "cut the pigeon wing" equal to a boy of 20. The iron work of the bridge across Fishing creek, at Cedar Shoals, on the Clieraw and Chester Railroad, is now being placed in position, and they are receiving iron sufficient to lay the track to Catawba river. Bennett & Moffat have already lumber for building four additional box cays for this road. Yfr T k f'olvin is tnnkinor ji nlftjisnre tour ill Northern cities and Canada. He is very much missed about here. Mr. Nathan B. Simpson who returned home ? last week, from Hot Springs, Ark., died 011 Sunday, and was buried yesterday. Dr. G. B. White returned from Augusta last week, and si>eaks in glowing terms of the meeting of the National Dental Association. He also brought a dental chair which is ahead of anything we ever saw. A subject can be ! placed in any position, and raised cr lowered j by air brakes. Rain is all the cry now. Mr. II. M.

Mr. Thomas Graham, who has been one of the penitentiary guard, for some months, was home, 011 furlough, last week. Mr. S. C. Walker left, Thursday night, for Columbia, to accept a position as a penitentiary guard. t In a recent trip on the Chester and Lenoir Railroad, I noticed that it was in fine condition. Supervisor R. E. Waddill is having the track put in fine order?filling up the trestles, and making them quite secure. They make fast time on the road, nearly equal to the broad gauge. The Survivors' Association of the Sixth Regiment S. C. V. will meet here on the 26th instant to make arrangements for attending the meeting at Winnsboro, on the 7th of August. Capt. McAliley, President of the Association, extends through this correspondence a cordial invitation to Gen. A. Coward to be present at the meeting here and also at the meeting to be held in Winnsboro. Capt. McAliley also desires, members of the "old Sixth" in York county, to attend at both places.

Banks Robinson and Rufus Brown as delegates to attend the Bethel Praying Circle Association to meet at Bethel Church in York county. Sunday morning, between 12 o'clock and daylight, some one entered the dwelling of W. II. Hardin, PresMent of the Cherqw and Chester Railroad, carried off his pants, robbed them of $G0 or $75, and his gold watch, leaving the pants on the front fence, where they were found by a colored man in the employ of Mr. Hardin. It being so warm on Saturday night, that Mr. II. retired, leaving the windows of his house open, so the thief easily got in and carried off the pants. A negro suspected of the theft is now in jail, Chester. For the Yorkville Enquirer. RE-UNION OF THE 17th REGIMENT. To the Survivors of the 17th Regiment, S. C. V.? Comrades: Fourteen years have passed since the remnant of our regiment surrendered at Appomatox. Many officers apd privates have expressed a desire to have a re union of survivors this summer at Chester, which is a central point for eight companies, and accessible by rail in six hours to our two Barnwell companies. You are therefore earnestly invited to assemble at Chester on Wednesday, the "13th of August next, for the purpose of forming a survivors' association, of mingling a few hours in social intercourse, and collecting interesting incidents in the history of the regiment. ? A banquet will be served for the survivors, and appropriate addresses be made. All persons who at any time were members, from its mustering into Confederate service under the lamented Governor Means, in November, 1861, to the surrender, are cordially invited to participate. Proper committees of arrangements will be made in time, and the railroads, with their usual courtesy, will grant tickets at half fare. F. W. McMaster, Late Colonel 17th Regiment S. C. V. For the Yorkvllle Enquirer. # SURVIVORS' ASSOCIATION. I am requested to give notice that a meeting ot the Survivors of companies A, B and H of the Twelfth Regiment S. C.
