When the project was first agitated in January, very few people thoughl it would ever materialize; that am exposition on a large scale was toc big a job for the staid old city o0 Charleston to undertake, and it will be remembered that when the project received the endorsement of the Gover nor and .legislature and was then pre sented to the people through the medium of th* press, the universal opinion was, that it would be a good thing for the State, and for Charles ton, if the money could be raised, but, that the Charleston people would nol go down in their pockets and put up the necessary amount. These who held that view have been mistaken; Charleston has shown its hand and the subscription now ex ceeds $110,000 and is daily being added to. The exposition is projected for the benefit of the people of the entire Stat. , and the projectors have decided that wherever the people wish to join with i bem and subscribe to the capital stock, they should have the oppor tunity to do so. To this end the executive committee have appointed citizens of each county on the com mittee land have sent them bocks of subscription to be opened at conven ient places within the county, where those desiring to subscribe for one or more shares of the stock, can do so. Subscription books .have been sent Maj. T. W. Woodward, of Rockton, S. C., member of the executive com mittee for this county, who will take pleasure in receiving subscriptions and giving all desired informati'4 No Right to Ugliness.
