ON TO CHICK JO.
Charleston was agog ln?t week with a
railroad convention. Many delegates
from the. interior took advantage of half
fares to have a pleasant little-spree to
' Charleston. They were hospitably received
by the jobbers and traders. They
took a trip to Fort Sumter and Morris'
Xsland and were shown all the sights. St.
Michaels's bells were jintrled for them
jr.? and thev were promenaded on the Bat*
7$-, ^ tery. Thev were dined and wined by
the Board of Trade. They could not fail
" i to have a good time, were doubtless very
;<; willing to pat all their Chaileston enter.
tainers on the back and wish them all the
luck imaginable. These fanners, nierchiutsanJ
lawyers fro.n the interior were:
quite willing to believe that there was
enough water in the bcautifa! bay to
float any vessel, and as they heard nothing
about the bar in frout of it, they
f? luadc no inquiries. Besides these rural
sightseers there were a lew railroad uien,
who would like to raise a few thousand
dollars in Charleston to ail them in
tnakiug their preliminary surveys in the
I mountain region this winter. These were
quite effusive of the "sacred memories,''
etc. They love Charleston and Charleston
ought to love them and a 1 them.
We hope all were pleased. We hope
Charleston will shell out liberal!'-. Tlu
building of an air line railroad from
Chicago to the South Atlantic is one
of those things which are certain to ocIcur.
Such a load must enter Soutli Carolina,
and pass through her whole extent.
That its terminus will be Charleston
is preposterous. It might as well be
Geo-gctown. Bat it cannot but help
f Charleston incidentally.
What the West needs, what Chicago
and Cincinnati demand, is a deep water
harbor through which can be shipped
the products of the western fields. Xot
a river town like Savannah, nor a barred
entrance liko that of Charleston, will meet
this demand. When her railroad men
met in council neither place was mentioned.
" The charts showed these practical
men where to look for what they
wanted and thty found it at l'ort lloyal,
and nowhere else, lferc they found
deeper water at low tide tide than Charleston
claims at high tide. Here they
found a harbor spacious, easy of access
and deep enough forail the requirements
of commerce for the present and for the
future. For here can enter as large a
vessel as cuu go to the docks of Liverpool
Or London. Cju.-cqnently when the president
of the Chicago and South Atlantic
railroad visited the south to stir up a
feeling in aid of his enterprise he came
direct to Port Royal, satisfied himself
that all he had heard of it was true and
left for home without even going to Savannah
or Charleston at a'l. As we have
bofore said : All roads once led to Rome,
because there centered all that men

seeking an outlet lor western produce,
let them come via A.-heville and the

To the Honorable Senate and Haute of
lirprewntntives in Congrat assembled:
Your petitioners residents of the State Qrj(
of South Carolina, in the Cities of Beau- j
fort and Port Royal respectfully repre- ^ j
sent for your consideration and action,
the urgent and immediate necessity of 'j
regular established fortificationsand lipht j
houses for the be'ter protection of the
persons a d propei ty < f citizens residing j j,
in the cities of Hcaufoit and Port Roya',
located within the said harbor. The ini- 'y
porta nee of tins harbor for military and
naval pur|>oscs. and the commercial Vj
promineriec which necessarily follows nnt- jjjj
ural advantages should enlist your care.- |:lu
est attention. The Government during j
the la'e war upon the recommendation of q
the U. S Direct Tax Commissioners re- j
served eligible sites within the harbor for j1(i
military and naval purposes. The lmtlcr- tj
ies built prior to the late war are totally j
destroyed, and those erected during the j? 1
war for harbor defences were abandoned
and destroyed, leaving the largest and (0-.(
most capacious harbor on the South Atlantic
Const defenceless, and its trade, q
its rapidly growing commerce and its citi- ^
zens subject to destruction ly ft reign
war. {
The completion of the Port Royal rail- ^Uj
road from the deep water of Port Royal
harbor to Augu. ti, also connecting this ^
harbor with the great railroads of the ^,
west and southwest, has created it the
great avenue of commerce to the high?
r spo
way of nations, for those two sections of ^a(]
the United States. The established lines ,
.... , . ? and
of European steamers now plyiug from
this harbor, its coastwise ami foreign ship- ^

and welfare of citizens, demand at your ^
hands suitable consideration. ^}

Mr. Lawrence, first officer of the steam- nee

'he last and greatest event, there came
steamship Texas, direct from Liver>1,
bringing three hundred tons of cotties.
The Texas is a new steamship,

Some tilings Needed.
'ho arrival of the steamship Texas
ught into view some things which
d attention at once by those rcsponsifor
the conduct of business on the
road dock.
'here should at once be provided two
nore bouys securely anchored in the
am opposite the dock to which ships
,* attach lines to aid them in swinging

are sometimes adverse and such aids
ate and speedy movement arc indis
sable.
mother thing is to remedy a strange
r-iglit in the completion of the rail"
1 dock. No posts have been left in
ding it to which hawsers can he
cited. There is not a ring fqr the
pose on the dock. It was a rather
ising sight to see the captain of a
-el hacking holes in the plunk through
eh to pass his rope, when tying up
the wharf. The indignant sailor
ted that "a d?tied land lubber who
n't know a dock from a 1mm floor, or
hale from a mill-dam cat-fish, must
e built the wharf."
hen, too, there was a lamentable
it of attention in not being ready
i a berth for the Texas. With eight
idred feet of dock room there was no
use lor making her wait, and then
uglier only the small space sli got.
rything ought to bend to make the
; visits of these steamers pleasant,
, and cheap. Iby a little foresight
good judgement the other vessel
Id have been moved in time so that
steamer could have conic to her
h, discharged and got away many
rs sooner than she did. Someone
aid he in charge who knows the
lirenients of commerce in this and
>r respects. A steam-hip, like the
as, costs a large sum per day, equal
haMy to two mouth's expense of a
c sailing vessel, and every hours

quite tiresome.
Removal of all Disabilities.
On Monday, in the federal hou-c of
representatives. Maynard, of Tennessee,
from the committee on rules, reported a
bill removing all disabilities imposed and
remaining on any person by the third
section of the fourteenth article of the
amendments to the constitution, and
substituting, for the iron clad oath the
modified oath now administered to persons
from whom disabilities have been
removed. Lawrence, of Ohio, asked

report .such an act of general legislation.
The speaker doubted very much whe h >r
that committee had a right to report it
except under a call. Hoar said he would
not insist on the point. Bu'ler. of Massachusetts.
said that he would. Maynard
moved to suspend the rules and to
icccivc and pass the bill. In reply to
to Lawrence s question, be said that the
late president of the Southern Confederacy
might as well as the vice-president
have a seat in cifli T'llouse, provided
the people should think proper to send
hint, Butler, of Massachusetts, said
he would not object to the bill if it bad
been examined by and was reported from
if committee. Maynard said it was the
unamimous report of the committee, and
the billwis then passed by a vote of one
hundred and forty-ne to twenty-nine.
