But the penalty for non-payment—of ten /loliars fine or thirty days in jail—is such an ex treme measure thatweeannotendor.se it, although we are an enthusiastic friend of the cause of common school education. This law was a legacy from the Radical reyime; but because they left it on our statute hooks is no reason why we should keep it there. Thirty days in jail for the non-pay- ment of one dollar is an outrage upon the civilization of the age.

The Philadelphia Record, of the 21st inst., reached us yesterday con taining a long letter from Mr. B. P. C’hatfield on the colored exodus, and the causes which led to it. We are happy to say that in the main the let ter is eminently conservative. His views on the lic-n law and poll tax law, which was left us by Radical Republicanism are identical with our own, and, with some modifications, the balance of the letter is not very different from what the most orthodox Democrat in the Htatc* might write.

These two roads will be consolidated by legislative authority, and the line will extend from Aiken, by way of Trenton and Edgefield, to Abbeville, Belton and Pickens, and thence by the East a toe Gup to Brevard and Ashvillo. Thence the course will be by the Pigeon river to Morristown, Tenn., instead of making Ashville the terminus and relying on the road to Paint Rock and Wolf Creek for west ern connections. The terms with Messrs. Child & Oliver are that on the completion and equipment of each section of five miles, the contractors are to receive $25,600 per mile in first mortgage bonds ^ of the road, and $25,000 in capital : stock as a bonus. The road is to he j completed by the 31st of December, j 1SS4; but the probabilities are that the ] line between Aiken and Edgefield! will be completed in a few months, as the grading between these points is nearly all done, and its early comple tion and equipment will materially facilitate the work on the balance of the line. This system of railroads avIII form one grand trunk line which will pour warded from Washington tnrough the politeness of our distinguished Sena tor, M. C. Butler. If this does not show the true status of the matter, nothing will. We have succeeded in correcting a public nuisance which affected every community having bu siness dealings with Grauiteville, and we hope there will be no eause for complaint in the future. Businessmen can now send letters to Granitevillcin one day instead of two, and the press are relieved of an intolerable nuisance I which hung like a millstone around ! their necks. We are informed that the Charleston Ncios ated Courier, which had only three or four subscri bers at that office, has already received additions to its list; and as for our selves, we are relieved from tin* trouble and expense of forwarding our mail as best we could:— Post Office Department, i Office 2d Ass’t Postmaster-Gen.

Through the polite attention of Hon. Jas. Aldrich we have received the full text of a bill recently passed by both Houses, “To provide for the preparation of rolls of troops forward ed by the State of South Carolina to the army of the Confederate States, and of the militia of the State in ac tive service during the war between the Confederate and United States.” We regret we cannot find space for its publication, but regard it as an emi nently just and patriotic measure. It provides the sum of $2,000 for the per formance of the work, $500 of which is to go to the Adjutant-Generafc Gen. Manigaulk^ thc_ in ' teran 7 nofoniy of the Lost Cause but of the Mexican War, requested that the portion of the appropriation that was to come to him be stricken from the bill, as he wished to devote himself to the work as a la bor of love. The House very properly rejected the proposition and' voted the whole appropriation. Gallant old battle-scarred veteran! His emotions were so great during the eloquent speeches of McCrady, Dargan and others on the passage* of the hill that he had to leave the House. Broken in fortune but inflexible in his patri otism, he would willingly have per formed the arduous labors incident to the carrying out the purposes of the bill without money and without price, if the self-respect of the House had not intervened to prevent the sacrifice. Houth Carolina has a host of noble sons, hut none more deserving than the old veteran soldier Manigault. The Savannah races closed on the 20th inst., after a week’s fine sport. Atlanta had a fire on Friday night last which destroyed over a quarter of a millions of dollars. But that is a small matter to theenterprisingj(4ate City. Mr. John H.

Agriculturally our County is rapidly improving; stumps are being pulled up, labor-saving machines of various descriptions purchased, and everyone seems bent on moving for ward the car of progress with enthu siasm and intelligence. Our chalk beds, paper mills aud cotton factories pay magnificent dividends, and in spite of last year’s bad crops the signs on every side are most encouraging. Investments in land in Aiken County to-day, especially in and around the town of Aiken, may be classed as investments of the first-class. Taking all these matters into con sideration, with the prospect of in creased railroad facilities, the future of our Town and County is hopeful and cheering.

Beckman, 1 one of the Directors, to visit our office ! in order ttuit we might ascertain what I had been done. Our first question jwas: When will the Aiken &Edge- j field Road be completed? To which Mr. Beckman replied: That depends ! in a great measure upon the steps our citizens take to secure the road. By the terms of the charter of the Atlan tic & French Broad Road they have the right to go to the sea by any route they deem proper. They, therefore, could select any other point than Ai ken, if they saw r fit. But the result of our meeting has'been that while they have contracted to build the road on the terms already stated, we are required to furnish the right of way, to procure sites ft»r the location of de pots, switches and pumps, and settle our hack indebtedness, amounting now to $2,000, These things we must ' do before work will commence.
