Brilliant Prospects
We are glad to be able to make
known to our readers that contracts
have certainly been concluded for the
construction of the Atlantic and
French Broad Valley Railroad, and
also of the Edgefield, Trenton it Aiken
Railroad. 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.

we hope there will be no eause for
complaint in the future. Businessmen

j inquiry was made as to the duty per-

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

provides the sum of $2,000 for the per
formance of the work, $500 of which
is to go to the Adjutant-Generafc Gen.

whole appropriation. Gallant old

others on the passage* of the hill that
he had to leave the House. Broken

the carrying out the purposes of the
bill without money and without price,

As a railroad centre our town will
increase in wealth both from its re
sources as a trade mart and a sanitary
resort. Agriculturally our County is
rapidly improving; stumps are being

various descriptions purchased, and
everyone seems bent on moving for

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

town of Aiken, may be classed as
investments of the first-class.

Ucckman Concerning the Railroad
Meeting tit the Pine House.
Understanding that a meeting of
the Directors of the Edgefield, Tren
ton & Aiken Railroad had been held
at Fine House on Thursday, the 19th
[ inst., we invited Mr. J. H. 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.
