' Unless Port Koyul means to content i herself with a mere trade within State t limits and not oven commanding all of t that, she will pat forth the utmost txer- l tions to throw off the restrictions patron- ( izingly imposed upon her by the Georgia 1 Wail ltoad, and strikeout an independent course for herself. The first thing aud most imperative is to push a railroad through Edgefield County, and lower edge of Abbeville crossing the Georgia Rail Road at Greenwood or "Ninity6ix " continuing in Air Lino for Abbeville via Spartanburg C. H. 'that would insure c a continental communication at once and 1 oilers such competition with the South r Carolina R. R. as would effectually pro- 1 vent disturbance by any future rivalryTho nextfthing is to connect Alillcn on the Central Rail Road with somo point on our grand leading stem to tha ocean. "ihe third nninf ia 111" n " j ? uuuvuuu i-acinc itail Road, whose terminus will neccessarily ' be at Port Royal, hut our concern should be to insist upon its being so pushed into *the very beart of the Great Wpst as to be reached by their truuk lines. The great * corn basin of the west demands an outlet 11 at the least cost and with the slightest obstruction. ,Port Royal bas^clear a?Jvan tages in her band which any of her nvalt may reasonably covet her. Business in-, variably goes where it is burdened with j the least tribute, and it is cheap transportation that is the key to that city's commercial prosperity whicb'canjoffer it. It is trne that the trade of the vast interior is to be ample in the future to feed the prosperity of a whole line of Atlantic ports, but it is of great importance that this one of ours should make haste to _ -establish the commercial rank which it intends to maintain. The reciprocal advantages which out port will be-tow ^ f/1 fho wwtll 1?. x? m ? nm ue mil ana appreciated by the influx ot foreign population which o it steamships can bring .to settle up the waste places of the State, by the enterprise it will infuse in new hrauchva of industry by cheap rates of freight un- ' heard of heretofore, and by enlarging the valuation of property by brthging it into market by new settlers. Combination of capital) and carriage ai? not wanting in a community so compacted as this. J Every indication points to the attainment of a crop of over 4,000,000 bales of ^ cotton. The recent firmness and activity in the market is doubtless dao to speculative combination. Immense quantities of the staple are still in the interior, and , the crop is said to bo the best and best bundled since the war, owibg to the favorable fail for gathering that bos prevailed _ all over the cotton belt. The best bales of the present crop are still In tbn h?n<ia of the producers. Even at present prices the crop nets the South $2,500,000- 11 000. j j* i The result of the meeting of railroad Presidents and officials that rastirt Macon last week, was an agreement to pool the fr business seeking outlet from the three sea ? ports of Savannah Port Royal and Charles- b; ton. By this arrangement the advantages of Port Royal, ere placed upon an equal footing with other heretofore discriminated routes and the business will be distri buted among them uponthe basis of a per cent ago done by eacli np to the 1st ot January ^, The GreeoVillO and Columbia Rail ^ Road due to the admirable and skillful management of Col. Dodamead, is becoming one of the most KH#ble avenues of trade and travpl in the state. We should regret to see the retirement of Col. Dodsmead which we have heard J was bis determination. Never hss the road l>M>n t? un a?? t? ?* ... ? Ku?u miming oracr, ond his loss woald be felt severely unless to transplant him to some other of out o roads needing thorough re-organization. Could lie not be induced to take the Presidency of the Port Royal Rail Road! Salary should be no object in order to A secure a railroad uian to direct this enterprise. U.
