The plan ( rW to make a success c?f the enterprise ( pi? is to ask people owning lands to do nate a conam quantity to ino uaii- i road Company. The deeds for said hind are not delivered to the Coni< pa uy until the railroad is completed < to a certain point agreed upon by ( the parties concerned. This plan ( makes the Railroad Company inter- v ested and vitally concerned in the agricultural and industrial development of the community in which they are part owners ??f the land. It seems to us that this is the most satisfaetory method of building railrords, as the donation i* outright and complete. It will require liber- j al donations from the people of Horry, but it will perhaps be the best disposition they can make <?f a part , of their lands and inav ultiinatelv be L ^ ( " a very profitable investment. The lands now are in some places nearly ^ profit loss, because of the lack of the means of transportation but the L means of transportation supplied they would be very valuable. The. I .':i 111*1 > 111 ( 'iimn-niv Iw'iiiir <i h-ii'l nu i>_ H* - " I"" I W it of the lands cannot afford to allow them to remain idle and unproW ductive, lmt would be forced to sustain the road to put forth efforts to make the lands more productive and to secure a market for these products. Immigrants to occupy and develop these lands would he introduced, new industries enterprised, new ideas, energies and thrift imparted to the present occupants. It 1 strikes us as being a safe and profit- 1 able investment for those who have more land than they can profitably ! use to make. j The location of the road is now uncertain and will not be determined until subscriptions are in. From present aspects the most feasible, practicable and profitable route will be between the Wuceamaw river and the ocean front about llucksvillc. The only (juestion to settle in this matter is what route would be most beneficial and useful to the County. Chief Engineer Kunk has been in Coi.way for a few days examining the practicability of building the road. It all depends upon the liberality of subscription of lands by the people, the company h ive the money ' to construct the road but desire that I the people should measure their desire for it by donations. The probability is that t he company will have to carry the road for live or more years without remuneration, and they want a basis on which to operate to increase the agricultural and industrial productions along the road so as to enable the road to become reE mucrative to the investors.

A.ndkkhox, May 10.?About 1,000 persons wer- present at the Tillman meeting today. As the crowd begun to ge I settled around the stand and as the speakers and reporters were takinjr their places, sonic one cried cheers for Earle," which was followed with u whoop. Throe oncers were then given for Tillman and then three cheers for the st raightout I >omocracy. The Young America Cornet Hand discoursed some music, after which Mr. A. C. Lattimer called the meeting to order. Itev. C. H. Smith was requested to open it with prayer, which he did. This was about 11:30. Cupt. B. It. Tillman was then introduced to the audience by the presiding ollicer. After leisurely arranging some manuscript and newspapers on the board lie began: 44 It gives mi'pleasure to meet the citizens of any County of South Carolina and see them, and let them look me in the eyes, or eye, for I I.1... * - ? ? in* i \ i;*M *' \ I ' A I U'l what you have seen in the papers I am ?\\v yon are surprised to learn that this little, insignificant fellow is Hen Tillman. I have some peculiarities. I write with my left hand. All you've seen in the papers as coming from me has been written with this left paw. Another peculiarity is, I have only one eve and I will tell the truth. 1 have said some hard things, hut that is necessary in all reforms What ! have said has been in self defense. I am here as a candidate for (inventor. I am here as the exponent of the principles represented by the fanners' Movement. lie then wont on to discuss the necessity for the March Convention, and said he ' was responsible for its being called." lie spoke of his canvass two years ago with (Jovernor hichaidson and referred to I he election of delegates to the .State Convention, and said the ringsters had the convention bottled up in their breeches pockets, lie also spoke of the amendment to the Constitution, two years ago, as a trap to catch the farmers in. He said tlie change was a damnable plot. I warned them that the farmers would interest them in 1800. lie said the Stale Democratic Kxecutive Committee had mapped out thirty-live meetings, at which he was expected to be. lie said: "I nope they will meet me there." A voice from the crowd: i.'l'l 'II ' " i in1 v ii lu'ver (io it." Captain Tillman: '-Don't you be loo sure of it. Don't holler until you get out of the woods. I don't liollcr." He spoke of the cry of splitting the party, and finally came to the meeting at Uidgcway, and explained why he withdrew. He then went over pretty much the same ground as covered at Uidgcway. lie denounced the free schools as misera hie humbugs, and said we would stop work on the State House. It would take nearly a million dollars to finish it, and we could not afford it and live in our huts. Captain Tillman referred to re funding the State debt, and said: '*I don't see why I can't refund it as well as anybody. I've as good a character as anybody, if I do say it myself." There was nothing new in 'fillman's speech. At the conclusion of his talk, there was music by the band, and then (ieneral Karle was introduced to the audience as "another honored son of South Carolina." lie made a calm and clear speech notwithstanding that he was often interrupted by Tillman and others. lie said he agreed with Captain Tillman in some things and differed with him in many. Cnder his own definition Tillman was an aristocrat, and he was an office-seeker in Columbia. lie also said the March convention was called outside of the Democratic ranks and that hence it was an independent movement. lie then said he wanted to know, as Attorney (Ieneral. in what the corruption in the Stale offices con sistcd, and turned to Captain Till muii and asked liiiu to toll him. Tillman replicdt "Well, the legislators did not do what they swore they would do, in not taking the census ami reapportioning the Wopresent at ives over the State!" "Is that all?" said General Karlo. "Well, yes," replied Tillman, "there was also a failure of duty by the Hoard of Agriculture to prose cute the fertilizer dealers." "Is that all?" inquired General Karle. "Yes." "Do you charge anything against me in inv olllce?" "No." "Have I been extravagant?" "No." "Have 1 failed to do my duty?" "No." "So the only corruption in the State government is in the failure to reapportion." "Yes." There were several little spats, hut nothing generally involved. General Karle's speech was characterized by calmness and clearness. He showed that the Kail road Commission was without nower. lie ?! so said that Capt. Tillman had done wrong in saying that such men as John 0. Haskell and others, who are just as good and pure as Tillman, are purjurers. General Karle characterized this as a light by the outs to get in, and said it looked very much like Walk er Kussell's democracy. I don't say they will go like Kussell, nor do I compare them to itusscll, but the facts peint in that direction. Tillman has turned his back on the rules of the Democratic party of 1870. Ho believed Tillman was a Democrat, but if defeated he did not know what he would do. He is a misguid ed Democrat. i Concluding, General^Karle said: "God bo praised, this Democratic partj has no corruption to answer for, and South Carolina's pioud name has not been smirched." Tillman replied by reiteration to General Kurle, and the meeting closed. All passed off (piictlv. Both ! speakers were listened to attentively with few exceptions. There were frei|iient applauses for hotli speakers. ItKlltING Till! GOYHItXM KNT. The Loitisiuiiu Lottery Buys the A(lini n ist rat Ion. News ami Courier. Washington, May 7.? Russell Harrison is rapidly making a name and fame for himself as a young | man ambitious to make monev. no -J 7 mat tor how soon he may he culled upon to make an explanation to his father, and some of the friends of the Administration are not very favorably inclined towards the latest financial transaction in which the President's son is said to he involved. According to the lion. J. Halo Sypher, who formerly represented a Louisiana Congressional district in the National Mouse of hVpresenta fives, Prince Hussell has been retained by the Louisiana Lotterry Company to look after their interests in W ashington, and for his sortiees he is to receive $'<25,000 per annum. "I tespite statements to t lie cont rarV," continued Mr. Sypher, '-it is nevertheless a fact that Morris, of the lotterv company, has entered into an I agreement with Senator Quay, of Pennsylvania, to furnish funds for the National llepuldiean committee whenever the lottery company is called upon. One thing is certain; and that is no legislation against the lottery company can he secured through the postal committees of the Senate and House. Senators Sawyer, of Wisconsin, and W ilson ' ,.r i i i : 11 i < < > Ml ivn 11) IMIIS 111 lCgai'll 10 mis <|Uestion, Imt they are <[iiietly pigeonholed in com mi t lee rooms, ami the same is true of half a dozen measures pending before the House committee, of which Harry Bingham, of Pennsylvania, is chairman. These measures are to be strangled, at least such is the inference drawn by those who are informed about matters transpiring at the Capitol, and a recent investigation shows that Kusrell Harrison is relied upon by the lottery people to bring about such a desirable result so far as they arc concerned. Instructions have been given the other agents here of the lottery company to keep (piiet and draw salary while Russell Harrison pulls the chestnuts! out of the for the stipend mentioned. None of the Con gressnicii who introduced hills against the lottery company have been successful in their efforts to have them called up l>\ I he committees to which j they were referred and the reason assigned is that pledges have been given Russell Harrison, all of which must be adhered to. Certainly nothing will be attempted during the absence of russell Harrison, who is now in Montana and being inter viewed as to the financial condition J of the new State. He is represented us savinj' that the Stale of Montana * . : is obliged to carry on its business af fairs on credit, as not a cent, has been appropriated by tlie Legislature for the conduct of public affairs. This brings out in bold relief the recent offer made by Morris, of the lottery company, to pay over to tin; State of Louisiana yearly, for twenty live years, the sum of $o00,()00, to be applied to educational purposes. Then, too, the lottery company is making a great spread of the fact that Morris is building an immense sugar refinery on the Tee ho, which is anotlier bid for popularity, by showing that money paid in for the lottery will not be diverted from the State of Louisiana, but used to strengthen its business. It is necessary to make a good showing, so as to influence the election to he held the ensuing fall, when members of the Legislature are to be chosen who will have the iwnn.r - - ?

All tin* indications point to a des' perate fight, and nionoy will not he 'spared in tho contest, while the plan which took the President's son as - partner was deemed a master stroke. He wants to make money fast, and any scheme like this commends itself very favorably to him since there is little work and good pay just for his intluence with the Administration. a. M.
