For obvious reasons names oan uot >e used, but it may be stated that the ;entlemsn who writes from Knoxville s in a position to know what ho is alking about-and does know aB a natter of faot. His letter given tho ioformation, whioh has been known to a numbor of poreons in Anderson for some time, -hat tho Southern railway has oom .noticed building its lino from Knox ville to Bushnell, with tho intention )f building on to Walhalla without I cc stopping, BO as tc connect with the | di Blue Ridge road. The letter, with tho ommission of ul ,ho names, is given bolow: A "I have your letter of tho 23rd inst. 01 "It appears to mo that wo people in tc Knoxville know moro about the futuro m prospects o' Anderson than do thc peo ple of Anderson themselvoB. Today, [t Anderson is a place a good deal talked 8< Etbout in Knoxville, for it is to bo tho S] Srst largo town out of Knoxville on H the new road now building, via Bush- ai oeil, N. C., by the Southern railway, \x whioh will be a main line from Chica- g go and Ginoinnatti to tho Southeast Q and to Florida, and the finest trains fi and the bent grades will bo had for * that line. As far as Bushnell, the b line ia now under rapid construction, z and as soon as rails are laid to Bush nell, the other end will be begun. The v hardest part to build is from hereto a Bushnell, and they are building that fc first so that material can bo hauled 0 over it for the construction of the end r from Bushnell to Anderson, whioh is a river grade with tho exception of a few mileB ne&r your end. When they begin the other end, they will work from either end, and meet, but moot of the material will como from this di rection, as the big shops ire here, and the oontraotors and foroos all live here, and have their main offices here. There are several thousand men now at work between here and Bushnell, and judge ing from the very high wageB paid the laborers, and the number of oar loads of blasting powder and dynamite that they are using, you would think that they are certainly pushing the work aa fast aa they possibly oan. The Southern railway needs thia outlet for their business at once, aa their line via Ashvtllee ia now so full of trains that a passenger train can't make time, and a freight .train from Knoxville to Ashoville is generally from ten to fif teen boura late; all this delay being duo to getting psst other trains. This odngested oondition oan only ba helped by the new line via Bush nell and Anderson, ?and "hurry up" is the word. Host of the business that ia the oause of this over taxing, origi nates in this section. On this aooount, the Southern railway is today refusing to aooept business from coonee lions whioh they cannot handle, but whioh they will ne alad to get when the new route is completed. Nov? if any one doubts what I have said in this fetter, t them confer with the office of the ? iperintendant at Knoxville, or any her high official who iain position to now.

"It io estimated that there are enj oyed on the Knoxville division of ie Southern railway about 8,000 men every capacity, aod tho majority of tose men are paid the wages of skill I laborers, as well as wages of oon ictors and engineers. So it maybo seen that whatever pop lation this new division will add to 0 derron, will bo of a better paid ass than its employes of cotton fao iries, which at present, go far to uko Anderson's new population.
