We are very sorry thle ('ommiiisssio,i e's ait, their meeting oni Satuirdlay de el(ded not to bild h the bridge at Kemp s.m's Ferry. l'Cspecially since Saluda and private parties had agreed to pay13 nearly two-'thirds of the cost.

We publish fu. piroceed ings of the commissioners on this subject. We uniderstanid that thle two commiiissioners who were absent would have vo0tedl for' the building of the bridge if they had been present. We regiret their at sence. There should have been a full meeting of the hoard when there was suchl a question to be settled. WVe aire told U.y t hose initer'ested that the bridge is by Rn o eans dlead and that sooner or' later it will be bunilt. The opp)osition to 4t is Riot based on sound economic groundIs, rnid we hope those who oppose L will sooni see the er'ror' of their way and become enithiusic a 'tic support ers of the free bridge.
