THURSDAY. DECEMBER i3, ISCO.
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.
