Hilt lor Ornngcbvrg Times: As there seems to he tin extra effort on t?fre part oi'some oflho Township Overseers to have I lie roads j > r 11 in goo<P_order, perhaps a won! or two concerning them will not ho amiss. The Five Notch Road leading from this sectinn to Orangchurg, was work ed a week or ten days ago, and wo nu-Ie.v innd under the immediate supervision of Commissioner I lounor, who, by the way, is rapidly gaining popularity a* a faithful servant of the public. It sometimes mal es people vain to praise them too much, but in the humble opinion of your correspond ent, friend Connor's head is too w :!l balanced to be easily turned, and j an occasional "well done'' will hav ? a tendency to encourage him in his laudable efforts to serve Ins con titu cts. We all know that the roads throughout the County tinvc been sad.iy neglected since Ilia ein c of liic war, and pnly since the lit apt in regime, has ninth effort been put ;o.-th to better their condition. JSTow in order to accomplish this (i?d, it is absolutely necessary that the proper tools be used, and it is an vitter impossibility to Rod them am >ng the laboring class; and by this class, 1 mean the poorer whites and the coio'cd people; tor the i people certainly work the public roads, especially the latter, they being Y;-.t!y in the majority, at least, in this section. Spades, slings and pick axes are the proper tools to carry on a road, and I venture thb assertion that not one in every ten among the lual road hands, can show these . y!s unless he ho r rows tbein; and rlria is pretty Laid to d.i daring Lit.1 ic ad-working season. tr'oino may assert that any hard working and industrious man (white or black) can afford one of these tools. So he may be, but can he aflord to buy all of them? A' one time he is suiumoud to bring one tool, and the next liuic another, livery nan is entitled to an opinion, and we contend that there should be a lot tf tin se ton's assigned to each high way District, and the Ov ersccr iherc ol to iiitipt to the County Commis sioners for the same and be respon sible for them. Said tools to bo purchased at the expense of the County. We think also, that Over seers should have a reasonable amount appropriated for thcirscrvi ccs; not that we an* personally inter ested do we urge this, for a day's work with a spade or pick axe, is far pre ferable to the arduous and anti ?yin ; task of controlling forty or fifty ban Is Another opinion, Mr. balilnr, i! you please. We think evt ry man who tomes legally under the road caM should work, or be compelled to pay his line, and we are glad to know that preliminary slops arch ?in * t ik en to bring son.c of these delimpicnts to justice. These wouhl-bo gentlemen have been let alone so long, l>v simp ly sending in a verbal excuse, thai their number is increasing tepidly, and where will i! end ? All that we ask is, that the present road-laws he carriel out st.riet.ly; sind my word for u a change for the bet ter will be observed.
