In accordance with Senator But ler's request Mr. W. T. Trenholm, of Charleston takes up the subject of the Senators late letter to the news aid Covrrier. and rather tikes the smile out. of his cheerful view of things. Mr. Trenholn has not much of an opinion of the average Congressman as a political economist, nor any great admiration for the financial leg islation of the past It would be much more pleasant to adopt Sena ter Butler's views, but we fear that Mr. Trenholm has reason and logic on his side, and that the business fu. ture is not so rosy-tinted as it ap pears to the ardent imagination of Senator Butler. Senator Butler thinks that the large balance of trade in our power, and the decrease in foreign imports considered in connection with the heavy courtailment in the product of domestic manufactures, surely fur nish encouragement for the business prospects of this country. Mr. Trenholm's deductions and conclusions from these same condi tions are so different and arguments by which he reaches them so interest ing that we would like to give them entire. but we can only give an ab stract. Mr. Trenholm shows that the balance of trade has been in our fa vor since 1875, and that at the end of the fiscal year 1881, abeut the time the present depression began, the balance of trade was a hundred millions more than now. le says futhermore : "There is no means, that I amt aware ci, for ascertaining the fact. but I think it probable that this sum of s164,000,t03 does niot represent ciiher in whole or in very larac part a credit againsawhich we may draw for either specie1 or goo0s but atWry probably is the ap"e j|n Zurerican -acuni heretofore comfort from the decreased value ofE our imports, which lie says, has neen I in raw materials of mnanufactutre and t inl articles imported for use in vari ous industries, instead of in articles " of luxury.a Tile reduced prodluction of domes tic goods is due N r. Trenholm thinks h to reduced imports, anld dismisses sc Senator Butler's third ground of it cheerfulness wvithl the remark, that at "lhe cannot really think that a nation or a class, or a single individual can thi become p)rosp)erous by producing less th and producing thlat a: litt le or 110 pro- pr fit.''- bu Mr. Trenhohn concludes with the or following sugge-stion as to the cause thi of the present depression and the brn remedy: pri fe Inm non he hbole rnon is now sur- an( beginning in the eal day reilton,* ,r withthe avigtio da of the Republc exaihtenagtio at and the bountyla.

Several Georgia railroad men will be present and all the leaders of th? enterprise in Edgefield. Newberry and Prosperity will both be well rep resented and we expect to-day's work to give an impetus to the enterprise, which will not cease until the road is an assured success. We are not favorably impressed with the proposed extension from Newberry to Chester, but there will be time enough t, consider that ques tion hereafter. What we are decided about, how ever, is that the road ought to be built and must he built. from Augus ta to Newherry, by way of Prosperi ty. Prosperity is into this thing with her whole soul and when sh does put her shoulder to the wheel something has to wove. Newberry has not said m:uch, nor will she say much, but convince her that a thing is advantageous or ne cessary, and without more ado it is done. Newspapeis are as a general thing fund of building roads, but we confess that this is the first one we have ever felt any ardent desire to construct. We hope to see a full delegation of representative men of Newberry at the Edgefieid meeting to day, so that what is sa'd and done may be author ative and meet with the hearty ap proval and support of our citizens generally. This town and county cannot af ford to neglect any enterprise that promises development in any direc tion. Other sections of the State are on the alert for railroad connections and facilities. If we are not alive and ac tive we may lose our opportunity and be left to stagnation and decay while i our neighbors go in to wealth and in. creased prosperity. PRISON REFORM. We have been reading with in terest everything that our esteemed s cotemporaries in this State and Georgia have been saying of late C upon the system of leasing con- L victs. Many of the opponents of the i system have been extreme, and have indulged in much that is bosh or sickly entimentality on the subject There s no doubt that there are abuses in t he system. arnd that cruel, careless n ~r mercenary lesses have.been.guityJ xlreme tenderness of convicts which ~ as characterized some of our co- pl amporaries, is on a par with that mis- te iken philanthropy at the North, 0 hich has sometimes made a hero ~ da martyr of a brutal murderer. w, re are not especially wedded to the ha asing system, but we see no rea- ni ns in the nature of things, why ng might not he made as humane be d effective a system of dealing wc th convicts. as confinement within nei C walls of the penitentiary. That ha are have been inhuman cruelties a reticed at times there is no doubt, w t the same may be said of prisons tilz penitentiaries. Every now and a :n some story comes to us of the por italities and abuses practiced by wo son and Lunatic Asylum officials, [yet no one ev-er suggests that tons or LunaticAsylums should be lished. It t there anything in the leasing that em that necessarily renders it Cour I and oppressive, and more ob- time onable thanm other methods of if Cc loying convicts ?

Re coril of August 15 says that as con pared with the corresponding tin last year, the industrial activity u the South is somewhat remarkablt From the 1st of.1 tine to Noveinhe 15. 1884. the weekly list of new er terprises organize<i -in the South, a published in the 3Ma ctre- 1 cord, was very short. occupying o: lv from a column and a-half to thr. columns, averaging about two aii a-half columns a week. Since th 1st of June this year this list ha been running at iron four to si columns a week, or fully double th space occupied during the sam months of 1884. Now that larg corn and cotton crops are considere sure. arrangements are being iad for a ouch greater activity in th organiza' ion of new enterprises tha has yet been seen. The second wee of August shows up with quite a Ion list of important industries just o: ganized. In Alabama the rumor rf ported last week of a flour mill to b built in Birmingham is confirmed b the purchase of a site for a $40.00 mill, the full capital having bee subscribed; the Calera Land Co., th organization of which, with a sul scribed capital of $500,000 was ri ported last week, it is rumored wi erect an iron furnace and a cot'o seed oil mill; at Huntsville a con press has been built; at Calera barrel and stave factory and a bric yard are to be established; at Georg iana another saw mill has been pu up; Jonesborougli and xancevill are receiving the machinery for thei new grist and saw mills, while Mon1 gomery has decided to spend $200 000 or as much thereof as may be nc cessary to build waterworks Flori da reports a fifty-nine thousand do] lar gas and electric light compan; organized at Orlando; a brick yard saw and grist mills, &c. Georgi: has organized a $50,000 railroad con struction company; $20,000, the ful :apital, has been subscribed for aew fertilizer factory a Newnan, pre viously reported as being worke( ip; $7,000 is being spent to enlarg lithographing establishment, an( nachinery for Albany's compress is 2early ready, while a number of rail -oad companies have asked to be in orporated. Kentucky has a $300, )00 cable railway machinery com )any, a $100,000 gas machine con: )any, and a $60,000 gas company rganized during the week, besidc maller enterprises. A $10,000 glass nanufacturing company, aind a $15, 00 water works company have beer rganized in Maryland, while arrange aents are being made for establish ag a hosiery factory in the same tate.

ANOTHElI PIONG OF AUGUSTA'S NARROW GAUGESYSTEMTO BE BUILT--AUGUS TA TO NEwBELtRY---INTERVIEW wITu PItESIDENT MITCHELL. Froin the Angusta Chronicle. Yesler'lav The ('hroniele called on Col. Mitchell, originator. htilder and Presi dent of tl -Sandersviill, R.R. in his ele gant and contmodious new quarters on Washingto:: street. lie found a very busy man o.i the . cind floor, but knowing the people of Augusta are deeply inter eeted in :c Autgu-ta and Newberry rail wa. which wil throw i.ito this city the ric I harve.ts of Edgetield county and the Salula valley. The Chronicle proceed ed feariessly to draw out the salient fea tures of the projected line. President Mitchell is not easily drawtt out unless he chooses to be, and how well the draw ing out process worked is best shown by the fol:owing dialogne : Well, 3Mr. President, n,hat can or will von tell The Chronicle concerning the new narrow gange to Edgeti.-Id anl Ne wb:-rry It will b; built But how, Colon." ? It will be started on private subseip tion. :, was the Augu;ta and Sander ville, but with ten thousand more ch:t: ces of being rapidly coip letedl. A grea ter auno;nt of money will be :ubscribed to build it than to any similar enterprise in either Georgia or South Carolina for twenty years. The people of Edgetield and Newbe.rv are enthu;iastic. Senator Calli=on, Vice President of the Board, is alrcady in the 1i.ld canvassing the coun trv teln miles on eiher side of the pro posed line. The incorporators took e, 000 of the stock before leaving the room in which the meet ing was held in Edge tield. The amont was large'y augmtent ed before Senato- Callison left the town, and it i- contidently believed that $100,-. 000 will be sub-cribed between the Sav anl :l a n d Saluda t ivers, .50,000 in New berry, city und county, and Augusta will be asked to invest her quota. Two hun dred tliousanid dollars should be easily obtained from these sources, and as the estimated cost of the road completed and tlinely equipped is only $400,000, you can readily see there will be half stock and half bonds, or only a fixed annual charge of $14.000 for intere.t if the bonds are male 7 per cent. When do you proven-s; to break dirt You are rather fast. When Edgelield his subscribed the $100.0-0 promised, the company organized by its stoekhold'rs, and Augusta's quota of stock taken. I do not believe in building another road for Auguta's advanttage unless her people will show by their subscriptions they de ser e the efforts in their behalf. It is a one sided game when Augusta reaps most of the benefits without aiding the construction of readS built in her inter est. Did not Augusta take stock in :he A., G. & S. Yes. A few enterprising citizens sub scribed about one ninth of the sum on the subscription book. But to invest one ninith and realize two-thirds the beneit is obviou-ly unffair. Edgefield county, an empire within itself, has su-tained our mercantile and cotton meu in a princely manner, and now when a railroad is vantedl by this fair and fertile domain, they have a right to anticipate that they will be generously aiele:l by the citizens of Augusta. What should Augusta do ? IIer citizens should subscribe $100,0- 0 to the Edgetield nilroad in ten days' time. Thle little city of Columbus has recently taken $150,0. 0 stock in the Georgia 3Midland railroad, and certainly the larger city of Augusta should sub scribe two-thirds that sum to build a ro.ud which will be greatly more advan Midland will be to Columbus. I pro teetd Augusta from competition at San dlersville--the termhinus~ of the Augusta, Gibson and S:undersville-by pl:ueing the depot half a mile (distault fromi the depot of the other ralilroad terminating there, hius reniidern g Savannah powerless to> eomipete with Augusta for freights tn less she paid for hauling products by w on between the termhini. But I (10 not )romise to be so earef ul of Augusta's ini crest at Newberry unless her people how by theirs ubscriptions ther deserve :;ch cem (. I am an Augusta 'mian--an uimble worker* with the few individuals rhose motto is : "All for Augusta," but is (discouragiog to strive to aid Augus acommelircially and have her citizens t idly by:anid aittempt nzothling for them alves. W.Aill stubscrip tion books be ('nened Jon in Augusta for the Edgelield 'road ? d Yes, and a good investment will be of- C red. good in two ways : every dollar in til e stock will sell for par in a year af rthe road is completed, and 25,000 pi lIes of cotton beside other products th il conic to Augusta, which couldh not T, otherwise secured.
