AUGUSTA-A CITY F?LL OF LIFE.
IXritOVEMEVT TIUUK PROGRESS.
Business Ken*and What TBsy.Ar* Doing.
Since tho completion of tho m m<n iii -
cont lino of mil way whieh eon O 00 IB tho
"city of 'he Spartans" with Augusta,
Laurens ls but a few hours from thin
Rrcat couinierclal and manufacturing
city. We had occasion to visit Augusta
last week, and a very pleasant visit lt
waa.
Although tho Central Railroad in con
trolled mainly In tho laten st of Havan
nah, Ita numornus tributaries on the
Carolina side, passing in every direction
through tho heart of tho Piedmont sec
tion, navo proved to )>o valuable acqui
sitions to Augusta also. Few Southam
eltlos surpass Augusta in railroad facti?
Ules, yet she is over granping for new
torritory and willing to do a full part in
aiding now railroad cnterprines. Thc
fact ls, Augusta in a live town. Nevor
beforo have v. o noticed moro improve
inenta going on. Blogant stores, and
residences of palatial proportions, are
hoing conairnctcd on every stroet. Th?
number of mechanics at work though
out the city would almost lead a stran
ger to conclude that the city had been
visited by nu earthquake. Hut not so,
this improvement and growth is nor
mal-the result of business enterpriHO
and evidence of thrift.
At this tune, however, ono spot In
Augusta presents a ditVcront picture.
As wc entered the city, just before twi
light's soft dew* had fallen on the river's
bank; tho tall chimneys from willoh
no smoke issued, and the massive facto
ries rose to view, .hat which was wont
to bo a scone of busy activity, w?s now
a pleluro of desolation. Tho great
wheel which should bo driving spindles
- weaving the mighty staple Into cloth,
restod on Ita axle. No eyo is needed now
to watcli tho loo u), no bund to pull the
thread, but all is still and quiet. What
an example, what a lessons to all labor
Mere is exomplitind tho follv of
following blindly tho mandalea of mis
guided lenders!
Mut, one would suppose that five
thousand idle laborers, in the city of Au
gusta, would produce a greater tlcprea
sion LJiong small dealers than really
exists. From u casual glanes at the
Allon wo couoluds that only the
operatives are to any groat extent feel
ing tho effects of the shul-iiown.
Quiet reigns supreme in the neighbor
hood of tho faetones, but nut sn on Mmad
Street and other portions of the city.
Hero wo see the opposite, liarly in tho
morning we strolled In tho direction of
olio. n. bOMBAHD A co's.
Foundry ami Machine Shops. And we
found all hands ai work, making ami re
pairing all kinds of engines, boilers,
mills, Ac. Mr. Lombard had but a mo
ment to spare, but gave enough time to
convince us that he is a thorough busi
ness mau and gentleman. It is difficult
to lind any article of Maohiaery which
which cannot tie mado in workmanlike
manner at his extensive works. Com
ing back to Broad Street wa stopped at
th? Furniture Palace of
VI.KMINO A now i.us.
and found both proprietors too busy to
talk (to a news paper man) but always
ready servo a customer or to show the
finest line of furniture In the South.
? ?rest stacks of beds, chairs, mattresses
etc. were being hauled to the depots,
and atilt orders from all parts of Georgia
and Carolina Georgia and Carolina con
tinue to pour In. Just across Broad
street at No. 831, we found that popular
gentleman
w. i. OKI.rn,
who is so well known in this State as
the stovo king of tho South. While it la
true Mr. Dolph will sell a car-load of
stoves, grates, mantels, and house-fur
nishing goods to merchants at lowest
who'esale prices, he is just as careful to
please a customer who buys a dimes
worth of tin ware. Ho has the goods and
guarantees satisfaction. Next we had
tho pleasure of meeting Mr. Goodyear of
A. a. OOODTRAH A eo.
who carried us to ono of tho finest stocks
of carriages wagons, sadlery harness
coach material etc. in tho city. The
Goodyear wagon is a familiar nunn in
Laurens County and nothing that wo
could say would add a .'hing to the repu
tatton ot I In MO vehicle with those who
have used them.

It is now A settled fact, thst the crop of
