"We had the pleasure of attending'n celebration at Lowndesville, on Wednesday, tlio 21th j*ine, in which the Simons and the' fi-iemU of tiiCF Sftvnnnnh Valley Railroad, co-opcrnted iu giving zest to the occnsion. Lowndesville, a* is known to most of our reader*, is situated' about 20 miles Northwest of Abbeville village, and about 6 miles from the Snvnnnnh river, ahd is located on.the route of the contcmplated Railroad. Situated in a fertile country it is noted for its liberality and public spirit in getting up entertainments of this kind ; and upon its weolthtflnd enlightened foresight, the friends of theTfllley Ilond rely for a strong contribution to the success of the great enterprise. 1 Atj an early hour, the vehicles came rolling in freighted with youth and beauty?the g?y maiden and the grnvc matron?vigorous manhood"*aud sedate old age ; all come to contribute' a fair share of*good" looks and pleasant smiles-fa*. the general enjoyment, and also a full proportion of cntahles to the Pic-nic fund. At about half past 4en o'clock, the Masonic I?i uvcmiuii nup iuuucu unucr niw cuuimnna 01 Col. H. ?H. Harper, and proceeded to the stand in a plent^pt grove, where nn assembly of near 2,000 persons awaited the commertecrnent of the czcreises. The .procession was quite an imposing one and represented the flourishing lodges of Abbeville C. H-, Calhoun's Mills, Lowndesville, Due West and Anderson. After a few stirring strains from the Lotvndesv illo Band, Mr. John Brow nice, the President of the day, introduced to the audience, the Rev. B. Johnson, the Anniversary orator of the Masonic Fraternity, and the Ghief Priest of the llcspcrian Chapter, at AbbeviU6 C. II. The address was one of the most able and eloquontythat we have ever listened to, and freely merited all the encomiums which itluis received. It was very happy in its general conception and abounded in passages of unequal led beauty of thought-and expression. It pre;, acnted an interesting sketch of the history of tho Order, and an^lnborate exposition of the great truths, wliklT its aymbols arc designed to illustrote^and cnforoc. The cavils of olijccrtors were answered, and.tlie characterj.ljf the Order triumphantly vindicated,- as the" liairt^ maid of virtue aud religion. Tho address, occupied sbont an hour in its * delivery, and was listened 1fo with interest throughout. A' copy has been solicited fur publication. Upon the conclusion -of the address, Mr. Jphn/T. Sloan, the President of the Savannah V^Jj^y Railroad, was introduced to the meeting, atidwfto proceeded in a speech of great practical force, to present a statement of the condition nnd prospects of that enterprize, and to nrge itaelaims upon the snppnrt of the assembly..- He was the owner, he said, of stock it^jsix or seven railroads, }-et this wns t!ie only ono in whfch ho had made an inv^gtment with tho expectation of realizing a profit, in the way of dividends. y the Bine Ridge Road he built and this ho regarded as a fixed fact, its tra^e must seek this outlet, and roll in a rich tide along this line. So that apart from the enhanced value, which it would give to proper^ along theToute, the Road itself w ould ^e a lucrative investment. The object at present, wliS'J?.rai?e $150,000, which, .with tlift. stock already subscribed, would give $000,000?nn anjountjsufflcient to grade the Road. : And. if the Road*veY? onfe graded?*the legislature would pot hesitate to guarantee the bond* of tbaC^&pfhy; U) an amouht sufficient to completive work.
