Eailroad Convention at Knoxville.
A large convention in behalf of the
Blue Itidge Railroad was held at Knox
ville, Tenn., last week, according to ap
pointment. A creditable delegation was
present from Tennessee, North and
South Carolina, and Georgia, including
Mr. E M. Rucker, of Elbert county.
Rubt. Thompson, of South Carolina,
was made President, and a Vice Presi
dent was chosen from each State repre
sented. Letters were read from a num
ber of prominent gentlemen interested
in the success of the road, regretting
their inability to be present.
Able addresses were delivered by
Messrs. Rucker, Erwin, Thompson, and
others upon the importance of this road,
the benefits to be derived from its com
pletion through a large scope of coun
try, Ac.
The following resolution was offered
and passed unanimously:
Resolved, Thot this convention pledg
es its influence and earnest exertions to
push forward the enterprise of the
building and equipment of the entire
line from Maryville, Tennessee, to Wal
halla, l( S. C., at the earliest practica
ble period.
The Committee on Resolutions pre
sented an able address to the country,
' which closed with the following resolu
tions :
Resolved, That J. P. Reed and R. A.
Thompson, of South Carolina; C. D.
Smith and James L. Robinson, of North
Carolina ; R. I. Wilson, and B. B. Le
noir, of Tennessee, be and they are
hereby constitute 1 a committee, whose
duty it shall be to confer with the com
panies or individuals owning the sec
tions,of the Blue .Ridge road, within
their respective States, on the subject
of consolidating their several interests
and organizing anew Company for the
ownership and management of the en
tire line from Knoxville, Tenn., to An
derson, S. C., and to ascertain upon
what basis and terms said new Com
pany may be organized. Said commit
tee shall report the result of their con
ferences to an adjourned meeting of
this Convention to be held at An
derson, S. C., on the 30th of March
next.
Resolved, That when this Convention
adjourns, it do adjourn to meet at An
derson, South Carolina, on the 30th of
March next.
Which address and resolutions were
unanimously adopted.
Judge Temple made some congratu
lotory remarks about the prospects of
an early completion of the -great enter
prise, and was followed by Mr. Rucker,
who in an eloquent and forcible manner
urged unity of action in completing
this great link which was to bind with
fraternal bonds the mountains of East
Tennessee to toe aboard of the Atlan
tic, setting forth the advanw@f, and d©
sirability of such connection in w.
guage that left no room to doubt the
sincerity of his convictions and his de
termination to aid to the extent of his
influence and ability the consummation
so devoutly to be wished.
The convention adjourned after a har
monious session of two days.
DIREOTOEB’ MEETING.
There will be a meeting of the Di
rectors of the Elberton Air Line Rail
road Company at Goss’ school house on
the 10th day of February next. It is
important that all the members of the
Board be present on the occasion. We
have much business that should be lack
ed into before the stockholders’ meeting,
which will come off the first day of
March. Our official year will expire
then, and we should be able to present
to the stockholders a clear and intelligi
ble report of all our transactions during
the year, and the Board ought to exam
ine the records of onr Company, and the
reports of the officers before they are
presented to the stockholders, and see
that everything is correctly made out
and represented.
Besides there will be several proposi
tions for furnishing rails, and other ma
terial, which wo wish to lay before the
Directors and ask their consideration
upon.
The prospect for completing our road
at an early day is brightening, and if
our Directors and friends of the enter
prise at home will renew their energy
and take the same interest in the work
as they have in the past wo will have it
finished. We know there is great de
pression in all kinds of business, but
this very depression presents us a good
opportunity to get our material for
equiping the road at lower rates than
could possibly be obtained under other
circumstances And if we can succeed
just at this time we will have a good
road, and perhaps the cheapest one ev
er built in the Uuited States. Running
as our road does through a good, fertile
country, with a live, active population,
if it can be finished now while material
is so cheap, there can be no doubt of
its being able to sustain itself, and make
the money put into it a good and safe
investment.

No More Law Students.
While gratified at the numerous ap
plications daily pressed upon ns, we nre

BY OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.
Hartwe.l.
This once beautiful, sprightly and im
proving village no longer remains, but
was on the 10th inst. transformed into a
full fledged city. On that day a May
or, Recorder and five Aldermen were
elected to rule and govern the city cor
porate. The election passed off very
quietly, and resulted in the selection of
Maj. J. H. Skelton, as Mayor ; C. W.
Seidel, Recorder; and Messrs. John
Peek, J. B. Benson, W. Y. Holland, J.
W. AVilliams and C. P. Presnell, Aider
men. The latter named gentleman de
clined the honor, and as the Mayor and
four Aldermen were installed into their
offices, an election was ordered to be
held, to fill the vacancy caused by the
declination of the respected commodore.
C. W. Seidel, the elected Recorder, be
ing in Atlanta will qualify within the
time prescribed. There is also on foot
a memorial to our Legislature, asking to
vest the Mayor with con-current juris
diction with the Superior Court in all
criminal offences under felonies. We
hope it will have no taint of a county
court. Move up, Eiberton!
High School.
The High School has been incressing
almost daily since its opening and in
view of the fact that such excellent and
cultivated teachers have charge of it we
confidently expect it to continue to in
crease, Those of our people who fail
to avail themselves of the great educa
tional facilities offered them the present
year will neglect a golden opportunity,
that may never return.
- Baptist Chureh.
There was a fine attendance at this
church last Sabbath. The Rev. H M.
Barton, of Fair Play, South Carolina,
preached. He has consented to officiate
at this church the present year. Me
think the members should congratulate
themselves in having procured the ser
vices of such a worthy and efficient
devine.
New Scheol.
Mr. S. M. Bobo, “mine host,” has open

“in teaching the young how to
shoot.” He deserves a liberal patron
