EXTREND TIlE II00KlTONIROAD. Xfcsa. E~ditorsq: As the wave of 31n terpiso and activity that is now going over the South seems to have struck Winnsboro, at last, allow me, through the columns of'your paper to throw a suggestion across its path wvhich I hope may be taken up and carried through to completion. I have refer. once to the building at once of a rail road from Wiinnsboro to our granite quarry; or, in other words, turning the present Rlockton Railroad from Rockton to Wininsboro. The change would be of groat benefit to both the granite company and the citizens of Winnsboro and vicinity. In the firat place the granito comipa . ny would, in my opinion be able to secure a more steady, less roving, and, consequently, more efficient class of labor, by reason of the fact that thoiu employees could reside in towni wherc they would have social and rellgiouu advantamges, and the benofit of oni ipanids1ool,n thu nalnn thi KEI WE H AYE FiXED A BIlL One case Figured Lawns at 8jc. per 3 One case Figured Lawns at be. per y 20 pieces of Checked, Stripped and I por yard. 75 piecos of Checked Nainsooks and yard.

Because it is one inch higher in the arn than any other. Second. It is one inch longer in the arm. Third. It gives satisfaction. Fourth. The attachments cannot be ex celled. Fifth. The needle sets itself. Sixth. It never wears out, and why ? Because it is so simple that there is but little machinery about it, and not a bear ing that turns over. Every part raeckq. thus making it the lightest running ma chino tha. is made. Also it has no verti cal feed spring to get out of fix. The amount of fancy work that can be done on it Is too numerous to mention. While we sell the White, New 1ome and the Davis in Columbia, the Domestic is the machine that leads them all. I am a machinist by trade and repair all makes of machines. I have been engaged in the sewing machine trade for seventeen years, and I find the I)OMESTIO the best that's made. Now, you have no risk to run in buying the Light-Running Domestic Sewing Machine. I have made Winnsboro my home, and granite company to employ men of families, who would be content to come among us and become permanent citizens. And the very small differ ence in the cost of transportation of rock between the way it is now carried and the way the proposed change would carry it would be more than balanced by the improved class of labor mentioned above. The benefits to Winnsboro and vi cinity by the proposed change are to my mind incalculable. The granite industry is in its infancy. When the "Anderson Rock" is opened in connection with the present quarry, there will .be no end to the granite, and with improved railroad facilities, which we hope for in the near future, there is 110 reason why Fairfild should not supply all the granite needed- by any one- anywhere, and t.o do that would require a large amount of skilled labor. Now build the road as proposed, and arrange to carry tile imn from and to Win nsboro daily, allowing them and their families to re side in town. Just look at the boom! Houses would have to- be built, lots would be in demand, consequently real estate would rise in value. Me chanics would be nleeded, and they would all have to be fed and clothed, educated and improved. Farmers all over tihe county would have a market for butter, eggs, potatoes, chickens, &c., &c., and in ftact I know of no one in any occupation, trade or profession that would not be benefitted.
