The Whole Distance Over Which the Same Will Operate Will Jflo Four teen Miles. The Columbia tttato of tho l?th Bays the mneh-talked-of connection of this city with Brooklaud and the town of Lexington bj' an electrio railway is to be perfected in tho very near future. The information cornea from a promi nent member of tho Brooklund F.lectrio company, and tho plan is to be eirriod out by tho combination of three electrio companies. 'J ho Brook laud Electrio company, which was chartered by tho last se&siou of the Legislature, and tho new Lex ington Lltfitrio and Power company, have decided to consolidate and build a road connecting the two towuft which tboy represent. The Brookland com* pauy ha? the right of way aorosa tho river to counect their lino with Colum bia. Tho plan now js that tho Lex ington company, whioh is ooioposod of some of tho strongest mon tn tho conn tv, and who arA' determined to carry out the purposes of their charter, build their road to Brookland, where it will couuoot with tho road of that town. Then these two companies which hnvo combined with tho Columbia Electrio Ktroot Bailway company, together with tho latter, will build abndgeacross tho river and operate an elootrio lino whioh will conneot the threo towns. The whole distance over which tho lino will opcrato will be fourteen miles, and in addition to tho passenger lino the companies propose to run a liuo of freight cars and expect to do a large businoss. Already tney havo a guaran tee of 86.00 freight per day by ouo of the Lexington factories The new bridge which will be built will be a handnome piece of engineer ing. Jt is necossary to havo #4U,000 BubBcribed to build tho bridge, ono fourth of whioh will bo paid in, in order i to get it started. Tho remaining $o(\ 000 will bo floated with.bonds. In this way the plan can he carried through without, nnv trouble. Tho company will charge a small toll for tho uso of tho bridge -smaller thau is now charged for crossing tho present bridge, aud in this wpy the indebtedness, which will havo to be incurred, will bo liquidated in fire or six years, Tho move ifto lit is ono in tho right direction, and tho parties who are at the head of it mean business. They in tend to push tho plan through without delay, and as soon as tho Lexington I'loetrio and Tower Company can havo mutters connected with its charter poi fecled, work will begin.

I ho price on ammoniated goods i* from il to por ton loss that* la^t year, and fit i 1 i tiio cotton raisor.is not ratistied. Tho principal reduction, however, is said to be due to tho fact that, several of tho companies that manufacture tho crooiU bavo done away with Hie asjonoy feature of the business, and are solliug direct to thi' farmers, and have thus forced tho agents to either waive thoir profit or not do any business. Jt i3 a difficult matter to de cide which in tho most desirable, to sell without a profit or not to sell at all.

Joy in IHsliopv tile. A special to the State from Bishop* villo says: Thcro has been a pcrfect jubilee around here for tho last few daj's on account of tho establishment of l.ee county by tho Legislature. We have inado tho welkin ring with the booming of cannon, shootir^ of fireworks aud other demonstrations of joy, and es l?ecially becanse this town has been r.sado a county seat. Tt is a lijltle town' and splendidly situated, aud with us rich lands to support it as are to be found anywhere in tho State. It is bound to grow in a few years. The Veterans* Convention.

'Po profess Christ la a challenge to nie world, not a defun&o. Wh?p a man begins to move others, he la generally c#lkd a "crank."

When a man makes a fool of hlm seif, he generally does tho Job well. Yleo either hides <>r draws Its sword as soon as virtue Bhows her face.

StroiiKer, Clenner, More Durable, oiid in the l'urt Cheaper thnu Wood. A. steel cask Is being extensively ad vertised lp England, ns n substitute for ordinary wooden barrels for shipping petroleum, medici nal extracts, essen tial oils and chemi cals. 14 Is saUl that tho Standard Oil Company's Oer man branch has ex tensively adopted this ttovel cask. Plain terne-coatcd steel sheets are cm pMycd in Its construction, these being first passed through a corrugating ma chine, which forma parnllel corruga tions from end to end and considerably ptlifen and strengthen the cask when completed. In order to obtain the nec essary curvaturo to the cask it Is pass ed through a second machine, which forms the bilge by t&Alng the corruga tions of different dimensions; In otlier words, it opens out tho corrugations In tho middle nn^prcssos those at tho top and bottom together. A number of hydraulic presses aro u.?ed to cut out the circular ends and to form In them at the same time a raised section, which assists In stiffening the ends. Tho parts are thon put together, tho^ side seam being closed by means of, a specially made machine that produces a perfectly securo Joint, but solder Is employed to render all portions quite tight. The advantages claimed for this cask aro great durability, strength and j exceptionally snvll repairs.
