It Wir.l Pay.?The Georgetown k
Vorth Carolina Railroad will be a payng
investment for Camden. Some 15,
)00 bales of cotton are shipped annually
rom this Yoint, and a reduction of even
wentyfive cents per bale for transports-,
ion, (which competition would inevita-j
)ly cause;) would save $3,750, which 1
rith the amount saved upon naval stores j
fcc., would not fall short of $5,000. Add
o this sum a corresponding amount
nved upon return freights, and it will
te seen that Camden will actually save
t least $10,000 per annum upon freights ,
lone. And yet nothing is said of the '
eduction in the rates of trarel aud the
uhanced value of town property. If
he road comes to G'atuden, it will be- j
ond all doubt greatly benefit the town, j
Jut, if it passes around Camden, we !
jay an well give up tho idea of erar i
aring better facilities for communicat*

Memorial to Irish Valor.
Among the thousands of valiant Confederate
soldiers who now sleep in their
red battle shrouds, there were none bra J
ver or truer than the warm-hearted and '
generous Irishmen. Prompt to espouse 1
the Southern cause?represented in
almost every regiment in the service,
from the bombardment of Fort Sumter,
to the surrender a? Greensboro', they ^
stood in the front rank of battle. They |(
nobly illustrated the martial renown e
or their countrymen by their dash and ]<
daring, and won everlasting fame.
Wherever the fight raged fiercest their =
pinoinc. stirrinir cheer could be heard r
- O -im
tliey rushed fearlessly forward. A
legion of tbem poured out their life- f<
blood as a willing libation on Liberty's *
hallowed attar. Their meo>ori>s are *
planted deep in the Southern heart, o
and embalmed with the sacred traditions *
of the caose for which they perished.
Several hundred sons of green Erin *
volunteered in the different commands *J
that left Charleston. Two large com- v
panjea w?f? enrolled under the name of '
the Irish Volunteers, who were the em- -|
hodiment of all that wu chivalrous and
tru*, and to-day within the sacred and |t
peaceful shades of St. Lawrence Ceme- <
tery there will be unveiled a fitting me- tl
oiorial to the courage and constancy of *
their tp^rtyr t)?>d, who forevor rent in J,
dreamless sleep on many a historic battie
field. The lofty and inspired elo- o
qncoce of the orator will faithfully por- ^
tray their self-sacrificing valor. The t?
old aod blood-stained flag, whoae cus- p'
todians they ware and beneath which *
they fell, will awaken in the breasts of g
thejr fey gqrviving comrades proud, {,
