Annual Meeting of the Stockholder*
of the Greenville and Columbia

The unul meeting of the stockholders of

Hotel, yesterday, Thursday. Tbo mooting was
organisod by calling Was. A. Coortenay, Xsq.,
to tbo Cbalr, and requesting Mr. C. V. Carrlngton
to act as 800rotary. Tbo Cbalraaa
1 then addressed tbo Convention as follows t
I desire to express as7 thinks for tbo honor
mmww oonionva us ciuiog mm 10 prcpmo
ovor your annual convention. Coming, as I
do, from the city of CharlMton, I cannot regard
vour partiality, thus exhibited, hut as a
compliment to my native eity?as an earnest
of yonr good will to your follow -cillsens by
the seashore) and, la this respect, it will be
most gratefblly appreciated there, I know Atll
wolL Whon Cbarlestoa was powerful and
wealthy, her eons evinced both energy and
seal in the cause of railroad connections with
the interior of oer State, and her material aid
has been, In past times, freely given to these
schemes of internal improvement within our
borders, and beyond thetn. Now, when she
in common with all within the limits of South
Carolina, is borne down by an ail controlling
misfortune, it is a grateful reflection that her
old friends of the North-western Districts
have, through all these years of trial and dif.
Acuity, been steadfast to their old alliances.
Charleston, desiring to foster and perpetuate
her ancient friendship with ell portione of the
State, and although estranged from them, in
some quarters, by causes most unexpectedly
developed, she Knows full well that <A? <?m?
tcill come when they will he alt restored and
eemenUd by closer tics, let us hopo, than ever
bofore.
A Committee, consisting of Messrs. B. F.
Crayton. A. McBee and A. C. Hawthorne, was
appointed to verify proxies. Tho stockholder,
present were called upon to report to the Secretary
the individual stock. The Committee
having reported a majority of stook represented,
the Convention proceeded to business.
President llammett read the annual report,
[heretofore published ;] end the Secretary was
requested to road the report of the Acting Superintendent
and other officers. These reports
were adopted without the usual rcfurcnee to a
committee.
The following resolutions woro introduced
by Col. Reed, and adopted .
Jtrrolrrd, That this Convention has heard
with great satisfaction of tho renewed and
encrgctlo efforts that arc being made to cum
plete the construction of the Blue Ridge Railroad,
connecting tho cities of Louisville and
Ciurinnati, and through them the great Nerthwent,
by a direct line of oommnnieatioa with
our Southern soa-board at Charleaton.
HvolvtH, That whilst we tavor and will en*
courage, to the extent of our ability, the con- ^
traction of all railroads that promise to be*
come friends to our r?ad and aid in developing
tbo resources of our common country, we
regard tbo early completion of the lllue Ridge
Road as of incalculable importance to tho accomplishment
of these objects. This work is
of such magnitude as to be properly regarded
as natiouwl in its obarwoUr, and its early completion
will bind together socially, politically
and commercially the great North-west and
tbo Southern Atlantic slope?two of the important
sections of our soon to l?e restored (as i
we earnestly hopo and desire) National Union, |
by bonds that, growing stronger by time, even <
the throes of revolution will be impotent to
sever.
/fasefrol, That this Convention hereby renews
the action had and pledges made at its
annual mooting in May, 1S57, in favor of said
Blue Ridge Railroad, and will ecntribute to
its success all the influence and moans in its
puwor.
Col. O. F. Townes intioducod the following
resolutions, which were unanimously adopted:
Itnolred, That the President and llircctors
of the Urecnville and Columbia Raitrosul are '
entitled to the thanks of the stockholders for
their judicious management of its concerns i
during the M*t rear: and oarticularlv for the ?
ical an J efficiency with which they have re- i
sistcd tho suit* instituted by a small portion S
of the bondholders, to loreeloso tho mortgage <
and force the road to sale, under circumstances <
tiiat would sacrifice the interest of tha State ,
in tho road, and that of the bond-holdcra and (
stock-holders generally.
Urtolvci, That his Kaeelloncy Out. J. I. |
Orr, is especially deserving tho thanks nf tbo ,
stockholders and bondholder* generally, a/ |
well of tho people of thia State, by bis agency i
lu securing an injunction upon the suits instituted
by a few bond-holders, which were in
tendod to soli out the road, at the saenAoe to
them of soveral millions of dollars.
The Chairman appointed Messrs. John TSloan,

Trip to Columbia?Mooting of the Stockholders
of tho Oroonvlllo and Columbia
Ball rood, on tho 90th nit.
On Wedneeday morning loot, crowded
ran left GrcoovlUa, tid ?*?ry aUtloa
welled the number of passenger*. At
Belloa, additional ears were hitched on,
and othere from lime to lime on the roate,
Ull we finally steamed to the Columbia
Depot, with Un passenger ear*, crowded to
the utmost. The treln raoet have leaded
at least six hundred people. And now
there wee buetle and hurry U eeeure eeate
in oronibuseg hacks, and to eeteh up earpet
bngs end put off to the various hotel*,
whilst a fortunate few sought refuge with
kind friends in the city.
The morning had been cloudy, but the
afternoon and all the deys and nights succeeding
proved bright and clear, to the
great delight of both visitors and vlsitad.
The Railroad meeting wae well attended,
and more stock represented than had been
f>raomo year* past. It will be perceived
from the abstract of proceedings, which we
take frum the PKarnix, that Mr. Hamnktt
wae re-elected President, and all the old
Directors, except one. Mr. Coustxnat, of
Charleston, was eubetituted in plaoe of Dr.
Botc*. of Greenville; not because the let
tor was objected to, hut Charleston insisted
an having a Director to represent the City
and-private stock owned there, as wsll as
the largs bonded interest. The Charleston
bond holders have noted with honorable
liberality and forbearance towards the
Greenville and Columbia Rill R a<i Company
Greenville had three Dirsctora, and
the President; and Dr. BovcX being one of
the youngest Directors was dropped because
those representing moat of ths stock omitted
him rather than displace those who
have been identified so long with the in
toresta of tlte Company, and who were
originally stock-holders
Tli* Columbian* are great friends of the
Greenville Railroad. They say that it
gives them more trade, and contrihutee
more to the prosperity of the p'are than
any other. Unfortunately tor lh?-in, and
the Slate, the quarrels lielwrcn tlic Char- 1
I -lie Road and the fimlh Carolina Road
kara resulted in turnim# luuinM, ,ea? (...,?
0?liiHihi( and Charleston. The Clmrioit*
R<>ad operates now m a drain upon the |
State, instead of a feeder; Mrviug to take
away from Columbia tlie husim-ea of those
Dielric's on its rout<>, which formally did
all their trading there. Tin* slate of
things, we presume, will be e>rreeled after
a while. Tlia legislature of this State
had it in its power, in 1805 and 18C6, to
have an legislated as to have stved torn- ol
our railroads from themselves and ea>-h
other, and to have preserved the ns'utal
ascendancy of the Charleston maiket. But
this subject would need mora eU'nreata ex
planation than we are pre|>ared to give.?
The evils that men do live aflnr them
S 0110 of the Coluinld* merchants sold
leveral thousand dollars wo. th of goods In
i>ne day to Ilia visitors hy the Oreenvilla
Road, and we presume that nearly all ot
them realised, mora or less, the sodden inore
are of sales on Thursday end Friday.
It was amusing to sea ilia anxiety ot
peopla on the cars, en ait) to g?t seats, and
mine to retain them. The constant a.lJilioo
at every station on the r?ad. composed
largely of ladle*, more particularly of the
youthful order, with their nia|4 relatives or

, are of a different opinion entirely. Gov?

I to it, had aim ply called attention to Certain
facie and acta of the late Charleaton Con
vention, calculated moot aeriouely to effect
tbe welfare of the Company, unleee prop
erly met, end prudently treated. Mr. At*
aan became vehemently defiant tovkarde
" I he Great Ring Streaked," and said n good
I deal that, if he ohooeed, he might more
properly mj in political meeting. The
Stockholder*, and President and Director*
of the Road, ecrtainly did not de*lre to
tnra their business m eting. either into a
Loyal League or a Democratic Club, nor to
diaeoaa the recon*truction acta We think,
therefore, that nearly every man prracnt,
of whaterer politic*) bias, mu*t have dieapproved
tiie inopportune utterance of Mr.
Aikin, without regard to their real merit*.
And Oovrroor Oaa, In hit very able reply,
confined himaelf to tha limit* of rebuking
wh?t he considered at a manifeat folly of
Mr. Aikkn.
We think Ooremor Oaa performed a dn
ty to tha Stockholder* and Bondholder* of
the Or?cnvill* and Columbia Railroad, and
to the people generally, by hie decide! rebuke
of the unwise attempt to involve the
meeting in the vorUa of pollt'es and t->
provoke a fight between the company and
the military and civil government of the
State; and the meeting almost unanimously
approved the good * D*e of hi* conduct.?
A* to hia exulting in tha existing condition
