At ?of tho location of Ibo Greenville pia Railroad, the preferenco of tie of this section of the State was [??ne to Hamburg and Augusta, ION two cities had met us with pposed subscriptions the lino [ave been thus located. Their pdo so, however, impelled us to circuitous route to Columbia, miling the increased distance oar?), the ii. A c. lt. lt ha<? ih ful manner contributed to the lent of the groat and growing of tho up-country, and for a mistiod ?lie necessities and de traffic and travel. Tho times instances have changed, how itt what for years has been among hie only an earnest desire for a Plinc and increased fi -duties of suiion, bas now become an abso E&sity to preserve our present are progress and prosperity. Tho \tt the railroad from Augusta to ?od, and its rapid extension to lcd Spartanburg, with the con gram Greenville to Laurens, will ?marked change in the business tapper gountios of the State, and tothe imperative duty of tho cit f*kCounty and city of Anderson .JO opportunity of uniting with jKpgin whatever advantages may fcttheso new enterprises. A line Winson to Mccormack, now in W as the Savannah Valley Rail ing a distance of 57 miles, unites "Jud county with tho Augusta A Wie, thus bringing us within about Soi Augusta. For the construc Jfcii 57 miles tho townships along ?Jin Abbeville and Anderson coun cil the city of Anderson, havo 8iib 'jndpaid in about $50,000. This lbj boen judiciously oxpended in *jjogand grading, about one-half stance being completed, so far as Jmg or earth and rock work.

On tho resolutions h.dng Handed it. one under consideration was firstak?ffi van opposed to tho seho.no of b?ifi fm? ; hy taxation. I regardod tho amounUn. ?unicleut to hung tho Road.

The city h r voted and carried its subscribo ila s my vote. But sineo that Unie the AT* J? lt. H. has lallen into the hands of a strong corporatlou-tho Central Railroad Com party of Georgia. It is state?! tb?t a Urge amount of grading has been completed and that it would Uko only a 'ma i amount ,<, put ll;t i(l connection wU," Central Ha.lroad. This, with the Biel, mond it Danville Railroad alroa.lv in co - uection with this point, would establish two ereat competitors at this point, and besides these two competitors wen, too powerful to buy each other out. Tho question ls, ?hall we put in a little mon, looney, or let tho enterprise stand as it I ui?IU0Uu.; i^od fwr 18 8n,?". ?nd . i . i #. i . ,? 'P.** ??Sat lit?i? more. ? think it is to the nitorest of overv citizen ot the County to vote for the tax Tho tax is small, and tho people will he moro than reimbursed in tho saving of freights and cotton alone. At $1.00 a hale $20,000 will bo saved to this County alone. It was my pleasure to take a trip North this hummer, ami I took notes of freight and pasaongor charges, l traveled 3700 miles at two tents per milo. I round freight ami travel ratos were very low, and oil enquiry learned that they Wero helow thoso prescribed hy law. What wo need is moro competition. Wo aro in bl miles of tho Centn,!, and will have to ruiso tho money to finish grading the Road. These tuxes will he returned to us, as tho Road rn taxed when it is completed. I submit that it is to tho interest of every taxpay er toc?me forward and contribute to tho completion of tho Savannah Vallov Uail road, as it will build up tho etty und county. At the conclusion of Col. Brown's re marks, Col. T. W. Marlin, of Broadawav Township was called, and in declining to ail tl ress tho assembly, ?aid ho fully en dorsed all Col. Brown hud said Mr. Ii. P. Smith said, that hoing in Greenville he liad Leon asked what wo wert, going to do with thoSavannah Val ley Railroad, and that the people thero venturod the opinion dat wo stood very much in our own light if wo failed to raiso so small a sum to carry out an en terprise of so much importance. Maj. B. F. Whitnor said: I do not know that I could add any moro to the remarks of the President and Col. Brown and especially tho remarks of tho latter as coming from ono who had hitherto been opposed to tho Road. But I was impressed hy conversations I had to-day ? that tho farinera of thc country did not realize the benofits to bo derived from having competing Railroads. Tho Au gusta A- Knoxville has fallen into tho hands of ono of the greatest systems of the South. Tho Commission regulates the freights up, but competition brings | h them down. Thc freight? are paid bv the ' farmer, as tho merchant must add "it to tho cost of an article, and I am sure tho farmer would he paid back tho $10,000 in one year. Ina community like ours I boro is no other way of building railroads except by taxation*. The courts of tho Cnited States have vindicated the right to build railroads by taxation. They aro in A- becoming oui- highways, and it is a Door placo that hus not one or moro roads. If you look at the map you will seethe treat Northwest covered with a network >f railroads. There is not a singlo niau n Anderson County but what will ho Hiue?ted by the completion of tho Savan iah Valley Kai In md. Mr. P. K. McCully said : I would like o auy a little in regard to freiuhtx, as the mportanco of the Savannah Valley Kail oad bas been ably discussed. The cn?, luuier pays the freight. When the mer 'iants go to New York, anti go into a reight office, upon inquiry as to rates to Vmlei-Hon for instance, they are told that he rates are so and so, and they cannot io reduced, as it is situated on a lino that ic?,s no competition ; hut if the merchant s frons Selina or Mobile, which aro corn ie ti tl g points, the rates will be greatly be 3W Anderson-and tho same is triie of ot ton. If this connection can bo so ured with the Central it will he a com et i tor to the Richmond & DUIIT?IIO. 'lio latter road do not want tho Savan ah Valley Railroad built nut! would ive $25.000 not to have it. If wo reduce ie Ireight on cotton ono-fourth cont per ou nd til o producer recoived tho enhanced rice. If wo roduco tho chargea in freights ie peoplo secure tfio benolit, and not the toi chant, except in increased sales. We ivo a proposition to finish tho Savan ah Vailoy Railroad if we will raise $."?0 K), and wero anxious to go into this .rangement u year ago. At tho conclusion of Mr. McCully's ro tarks, tho resolutions wero unanimous r'adopted, and tho meeting adjourned. It is an evident fact that our peoplo aro ow more interested in tho completion of ie Road than over before, and if tho lends of the enterpriso will only do icir duty its completion in twelve lonths is a certainty. Ii lt I Ut- MENTION. The price of cotton does not vary much. Thanksgiving Day was not generally ob srved in Andersou. Middling cotton was quoted in thia city n Wednesday at from OJ to 92.
