THE CORNER-STONE LAID. Tuesday was an epoch in the history of South Carolina's metropolis,., the grand eli City by the Sea. With military pomp, Masonic ceremony and patriotic edoquence the corner-stone of the Hxpositioo textile building was laid in the* presence of several thousand people, among whom " ,L- ?? I tlin were me puciuui ui unci many other distinguished visitors. The occasion was one fraught with interest to South Carolina, and indeed to the whole South. Charleston's enthusiasm \ in pushing thp enterprise is well sustained, and the favor it is meeting without side the State bodes well for its success There is every reason to believe that Congress will aid the Exposition by a liberal appropriation, which, with the amount already subscribed, will put it on a firm finaneial footing. It is a great undertaking, out that the business men . at the head ot it, backed up by the rest of the Slate, will rise to the occasion,.we have no doubt; it is no looker a question as to whether the Exposition will be held or not, but how great a success it can be made, its suc? cess will be shared by every county in the State, then it is but just and proper that the whole State should lend it? willing aid.
