who have established a Land Agency in Sum?

many thousands of acres lying idle which, if

Mr. Editor : After so much rain and cloudy

Miss Maggie M. Montgomery, after an ill?
ness of about a month died at Mrs. Shaw's on
the night cf 23rd instant. Her remains were
interred in the Concord burying yard, in the
presence of a large and sorrowing attendance.
God bless Mrs. Shaw and ber family for their
exceeding kindness to the dead. All that the
tenderest- love and most devoted affection
could suggest, was done by those dear people.
Mr. and Mrs. R. M. Montgomery returned
to their home in Clarendon on 25th.
The health of this section is, at present,
very good. We hear of no complaints since
fruit has come in abundantly.
: Mr. Editor, if I put down my pen here I
will not be satisfied, so ? mnstask a question
A man tells me that he will make a larger
crop than he can gather, and J, being so pleas?
ed to hear the good tidings, go immediately
(if not sooner) to some agricultural organ
and report same. . 2 infer he is telling me the
truth, (not knowing that be is gifted with
fiction,) and after he sees it ia his paper, he
teiis my best friend that I have, (which I
know be bas) deviated from those moral
paths of rectitude, which it was roy parent's
duty and pleasure to instill into my youthful
bosom.' 1 suppose he had a treacherous, or
as it is generally expressed, a convenient
memory.
Now, Mr. Editor, who is wrong?- Didi
tell a fib, or did somebody else tell a fib, or
did'both of us tell one?
Very truly, X .*

always right, unless they tread on our toes,

Prospects of a Road to the North
West.
Col. Bland? ng has just returned from a tour
of two weeks through the Counties of Chester,
York and Lancaster,'In the interest of the
contemplated Railroad from Sumter to the
North Carolina lroe;-and"from the editorials
in the newspapers of those counties it is evi?
dent that he bas aroused a strong interest in
them, and such as will, we think,
bring about practical results. He intends to
go this week through the Eastern portion of
Kershaw County and'.thence to Camden in
funherance of bis project. The project is cer?
tainly one in which this *?ho?ir section or
country and particularly our town is most
?eeply interested. We have had a conference
with Col. Blaodiog and have elicited from
bim the following as to the present purposes
and prospects of the scheme.
It will he remembered that the Georgetown
and North Carolina Narrow Gauge Company
was organized about 1882, with Col. island?
ing as its President, for the purpose of run?
ning a narrow gauge from Georgetown, ria
Sumter, to Lancaster, there to connect with
the narrow Gauge system via Chester, York
ville and Lenoir, through the mountains to
the East Tennessee and . Virginia R. R., at
Johnson City. v
Col. Blanding informs us that finding it
impracticable to get aid from the North for
any Narrow Guage, because of the depression
of 1881, bas bided bis time, but in the
meantime obtained amendments to bis Char?
ter in the following particulars: That the
Company can build either Broad or Narrow
Guage, as it pleases, over any part without
building the whole of its original route, with
the right to deflect at Sumter or any other
point," direct- U> .Charleston ; to go to any
point on or near the North Carolina fine;
that Townships and Towns, as well as Coun?
ties, can subscribe; that the Bonds of Coun?
ties, Townships, Towns and .the R. R. Com?
pany be exempt from taxation, but that all
taxes for County purposes on the/Railroad
itself shall not be applied to County pur?
poses, but to the interest on the Bonds sub?
scribed by the Counties or Townships.
Under; these amendments the Company bas
determined rc- abandon the Narrow and adopt
the Broad Guage; also to-make no further
attempt to build from Sumter via Cades to
Georgetown, bot to depend upon making
terms of connection with latter place over the
Central R. R. and Lanes R. R. and with
Charleston over the Central and North East?
ern R. R., or by the two roads now being
worked up by independent companies, one
from Sumter through the Western portion of
Clarendon County, over the old Slate em?
bankment across the San tee River, about 32
miles from Sumter, , and frora.jhere via Eu
tawville to the 41 mile station, (Dorchester),
on the South Carolina Railroad, about ,24
miles, which will make this distance about
95 miles as against 94 miles by the Central
and N. E. R. R. The Eutawville road of.24
miles is being built, by Charleston capitalists,
and expects to be aompleted to the River this
Fall. The Sumter and Santee R. R. Charter
is under control of Philadelphia capitalists
who have bought large timber interests in
Santee swamp and intend connection with
the North and Charleston. This gives tbe
prospects South of Sumter.
Looking North from Sumter, the first thing
to be determined is to fix the point at or near,
the Xprili Carolina line. Rutherford ton has
certaiuiy been fixed upon. From this town
three companies have been organized, and.
County subscription, voled sufficient to rea?
sonably j insure tue correction across the
mountains vat Cranberry gap, with the East
Tennessee & Virginia R. R., at Johnson City.
The Massachusetts and Southern Construction
Company, have entered into contracts with
some, if not all, of .tue North Ca'roliua> Com?
panies, to take the bonds' sufficient, for the
construction of these roads This Company
is composed of cali la l i.-ts at tbe North and
West under charter of tne State of Masacbu
setts, with paid up capital. They have inier
est8 in the West which require through Rail?
road connection with deepwater on the Atlan?
tic coast, and not being able to compete wiih
the routes either to New York, Philadelphia,-'
Baltimoreor Norfolk, they prefer Charleston ?s"
thenearestand bestporton the South Atlantic'
Another Northern Company is looking after
combinatiousof Companies from theubioRivor
through Big Stone Gap in the Cumberland
Mountains to the East Tennessee & Virginia
R. RM at Johnson City. The Massachusetts
and Southern Construction Company some
time since made ihe survey from Rutherford
ton to Gaffney City, and two surveys from
Gaffney to Chester; but not being satisfied
with these, they have entered into a condi?
tional contract with Rutherford and Cleve?
land Counties to take their subscription
bond3, and to commence work within 6U days
over the unfinished road-bed from Rutber
fordton to Shelhy. Sumter and Shelby may
therefore be considered as tbe two determined
points. The route between them is now un?
der consideration and survey. Maj. Ransom
is now surveying from Shelby Southward to
Yorkvill?. At this latter point he will make
two surveys, one to Chester, and the other,
via Rock Hill, to Lancaster. If these two
routes from Shelby prove impracticable, or
the people will u?t wake reasonable subscrip-'
tiona, then the MAs??S?b??s^^Ma^|?them

Roses-Long Letters-Mail Routes.
..: CCTCHAU., S.;-C, July 24, 1885.
Mr. Editor: Maj. Dargan's note in your
issue of the 14th, headed ."That Rose Vine,"
induces farther thought.. In-order.*to avoid
confusion it may be as well to note the differ?
ence between ti "Rose Bush" aud a "Rose
Vine,", as both have been written about. Is
there a difference in habits of growth and
blooming.?'. Or is .there only a dissimilarity
in terms ? Accurate botanists would scarcely
question a decided varTa^c?^nd? only u?their
h?bitSjSbu tafe? in (heir: needs for fulhdevel
opment, aa may be seen in familiar types of
each,-a Moss Rose-a Lady Banks, the first
a bosh and stillgrqwer^requires cultivation
and "pruning, the second^ a rnonera?d vigo?
r?os grower, req aires neither cultivation nor
prontng. The Cherokee rose, also a ronner,
prolr&ees-pe^r^ kind, which
is effected naturanyT The s tr?w^??^^i^h I
belongs to the rose family, shows in a mark\l
ed degree, the effects of pruning and cuhiva
tion. Now, to assign neglect on tbe one-side,
as the source of a freak in a "Rose bush, " is
ai reasonable ai to assign it to a vigorous
growth, on the other side, in a "Rose Vine."
An accurate botanist would probably lock to
the. formation of Stamens-and- Pistil*,- the
diffusion of pol len, in order to determi ne the
canee of sterile or,"blind" flowers.
The chaoge suggested in the present mail
arrangements between Stateburg and Provi
dence, is given below for the consideration of
"Vox," your Providence correspondentraod
it is hoped he will consider it before the peti?
tion h?nteot??'ns is'gotteti np;
* The chang?'suggested as follows : "Leave
Stateburg for Providence every Tuesda)*,
Thursday and Saturday, in P. M., after the
daily mail arrivesfat Stateburg. This"-woo ld
bring the Sumter mail a day sooner 'than
now, three limes a week, and a Charleston
mail every other day. Distance from State
burg.to Providence, via Catchall, say 8 mile?,
from Sumter to Providence, via Catchall, 15
miles. The. writer thinks .that by the short
line, prompt delivery aiid despatch would bcrj
en* u red. .^-^
"Vux" reviewr'snd censures "C" for^the
prolixity of his letter in your issue of the 7th
ult. His attention' is called to the fact that
advice was proffered as to conciseness, and
asked "to be heeded when farming was the
subject." What else there was, "C." claims
a scribbler's license for diffusiveness.
But worse than all, "'C." was "chew'd,
swallow'd and digested," rn an editorial par?
agraph for the sin-of verbrage, and after two
whole weeks of age, "Vox" proceeds to dish
up as something newsy, what had already
been digested.
By all meaos let os have rapid transito?
the mails. C.
