Boing unfinished most of the time, and a new road, the follow!ngcom? patlvoly accurate liguros will surprise many of our readers: During the year lids road baa l een doing business lo Laurens, il lias transferred to and from Laurens 10,000 passengers, or in other words, about 320 car loads. To carry these would roqulre lo good onglnes, as very few passenger o II gill OS can manage a train ot s CoaollOS, besides mail and baggage earn.

The G.I.. * S. prides Itself on it? rapid transit of freight, especially weatern I business. They can cite instances of solid cars from Louisville, Ky., and Nashville, Tomi., in three day?. A few years ago Laurens was without a railroad, cur merchants, during those days, paid on? dollar per hundred for freight hauled by wagons from Now berry and Greenville, to Laurens. A gentleman told me, a few day? ago, that he at onetime received $40.60 for a wagon load of goods hauled by bim from New beiry to this place. At that limo the cost of hauling from NoWhorfy to Lau rena, on a sae-K of ?nit, wa? moro than tho original cost of tim aalt and the freight charge? from Liverpool to New berry. What achanga has taken place. Now, we hayo A better rate of freight than either Newberry or Greenville, and moro especially on Western freight. We have a better rat? from th?
