Jwift City PrinterrOfteiai Papet LAMEST (uT^milUTiaN. Al?i}\M»TA. OA.i MONDAY MORNTNO ..Hot. If, IM* Tkt CflnUi ttl Angmtt Bail, road—The Election To-day. The law require* that before the%Hy Council c*n 4ubacri|» to My Urflroad, the question of Sfch suWriptiyn eliall bn submitted to the qualified mien t>f the City. The Uw on thie point is in the Aall Wrffode in any case without the previous concur rence of a majority of the legal holers of Slid City as it hereinafter designated, the votes to be taken in the same why and manner, aud returns to be made as in the case of an election of Mayor and Member* of Council of said City, the, time of voting to be .fixed by the City Council, end to be advertised for at least three days in all the pqblic gazettes of said City, and anlesk a majority of votes be in favor of any Stfbscnption shall not be made.” Application having been made to the City Comgil dfAttguafo uTspbectibe to the stock of the Columbia ft>4 Augusta Railroad, the question has, in accord ance with the foregoing Uw, been ordered to be submitted to thp peoplq for their consideration and action.' To day they will hft«e the opportunity ol rendering their at>d they should avail themselves of this opportunity to render their decision. The question before them is practically this: “Shall the City Council of Au gusta be authorised, by the legal voters of the City, to subscribe One Hundred Thousand Dollars to the Capital Btock of the Columbia and Augusta Railroad or not?” Upon this question they will vote “Subscription'’ or “No Subscrip tion,” as their judgments or inclinations may suggest. But before they vote they should consider well the step they are taking. They should ask themselves whether or not, by voting soy ok against Subscription, as the case may be, they benefit th*l Oity. or not. This Is the point upon which-they ought, as good citizens, to decide before depositing their votes in the ballot bos. ’• > t\ We have, in previous articles, en deavored jo show jbp great advantages which must necessarily aecrue to the City, by the completion of the proposed Road. We need only recapitulate, briefly, here some of these advantages. Any Road bavin* one of its termini in the City must benefit the City ; and anything that will benefit the City ought to be sustained- These are plain propo sitions, and will be generally admitted. The Columbia and Augusta Railroad is such a Road, and, ought, therefore, to be sustained and aided by the City of Augusta. It will be the shortest route frtmi New York to this City, and, wlien the Alil ledgeville and the Mobile and Girard Railroads are finished, the shortest to the Southwest. It will connect with' a Northwestern line, and shorten the route to the Northwest. Trade aud travel will always seek the shortest routes. It will open new markets to -the trade of Augusta. It will bring new pro. ducera and new consumers, new cus tomers, to Anguatn, thus increasing business and labor here. It will, through its Machine Sloops, Freight and Passenger Depots, etc., give employment to numerous me chanics and. laborers, .thus benefiting the working men. It will necessarily enhance the value oi real estate iu the City, and so benefit the owners of property. It will reuder taxation less burden some to individuals ; because, by the increase of trade and business generally, and by the‘ increased value oP' real estate, increase the sources of revenue, thus lessening the amount,' pro rata, on individuals. , It will, by drawing business to the Georgia, Central, and Milledge ville Railroads,' enhance * the value of the Stocks of these Roads, in the former and fatter of tthieh the City is largely rnterhstdd. It will prevent the construction, or at least, counterbalance the effects of, the proposed Raifcotwl Iroih N. C v to Atlanta, Ga., which, if built, and no competing Road is buHt/win thabe Augusta, as it twetty a. (Wood. .yard, ot way depot, for the ChSatlidton and Mem phis ltallroud. 1 These are some ol tbd 'Advantages which to; the City from the completion of thd* Coin® bid and Augusta Railroad—advantages in which all clasfdl fit J*»r wflt shore, and to Secure winch all should u rifle. Voters may rest aasorod that the City Council will.not blindly subscribe to t)ie Stock of this Road', without any guaran tees whatever. require themost ample seci/tity, befoiC sibk-riMng; and tbe conditions imposed are, that the said Rood, shall, enter the City, that its Mac Line Shops and Depots shall be built withiq the (Jity, |that its property shall be taxed, as other property in the City, and that tpe ol August* shall be a? officio, quo of the Directors of tbe that the Company will stand between tbe City and a«/MW>ages which* vrirty ensue from the cntermg'of the road into the City. These comiHw** wjl! be strictly enforced, sad wiU be efceerfully complied with, t What rejsson, then, can there be ffer votingagailiStsubscription? Tbe only one'givSn is, ! that 1 !* w ‘** in " crease the. debt ,es the City, Why, life debt ofihb Cily i! of- Augnrfta is not »o immen*a,(t» -4> .f-ighten' i|* iuhabiWnts That of Charleston counts by millions— nomo fouj; or ovq, millloiis, we believe, and the’ City Coundl of that City 4ms recently WMbtf t# increase it some mil lions more I While the entire debt of Attfostp is but littlu over one million,, and the present subscription' would in crease it but SIOO,OOO mo**, with the addition of $7,0Q0 interest per annum. And this incruasbwoold really amount to nothing, because it would bo much more than balanced by . the benefits which would otherwise accrue to the City, and thp rilfoena generally. Then, 100, it is an advantage to the City to have good Railroad Stock. If can be hypothecated. It can be esed as collateral security in obtaining loans if neneseary, Or it can be no\d some lime or'other, perhaps, at a premium, and thus irfog profit to the City, while the dtvfifende upon it may pay the inter estou the Subscription to the Stock. - - These are, as we said above, some of the advantages which will aeerue to the City from the completion of the Colum bia and Augusta Railroad, to this point, which no#, we are informed, only re. quires thie subscription to Secure Us completion. It te, therefore,, for the voters bf the City to consider calmly whether or not these advantages more, than counterbalance the objections-that have been’ made to thie enterprise, and it ia to be hoped that Qh to-day they will go to the polls and give their votes for “ Subscription.’* The question is an important one, the interests ineoleed are greet, and the tote should be a large and fa(l one. ~■ Tu. RSh. If .you hold stock in the Georgia Railroad, vote for “Subscription" to-day. The completion of the Columbia and Augusta Railroad will enhance the value of that stock. \ . The Associated Press. We have not expressed io odr/JMtper any remarks in regard, to the difficulty existing among this members of the New York Associated Press, or rather of .the discharge of the Superintendent of that Association by the members, and his starting a rival association, well knowing that such discussion wou|d not in the least interest our readers. Wljai they want is the latest and most inter esting news. And as we are merely the agents .of our numerous readers, all the interest we have in the matter is to pay out thoney and endeavor to get "this news. 1 r , r , ... c,J, ( Aeting in this capacity—ns caterers for the;public—we must say that we are very much d'spleased with the waj-'iu which the Association baa been, and is, at present, managed, though we confess we do not exactly know who. we are get ting uews 1-oin, whether from Mr. Craig, or the old New York .Associated -Press. We gef onr Southern. aud Western dis patches from Mr. Walsh, who says he is acting for Mr. Oaig, and we receive our Northern news from Mr. Holland, w*>o seems to be iu the employ of the old Association. “*■ -' Therefore, it would seem that we are receiving -from two Associations. How ever this may be, we 'must say we are very unjustly treated. For Instance, take our dispatches published yesterday morning; we'have one-front Cinciu nati announcing that “The Society -of the Army of the Tennessee has met and elected members for the year,” but we are not informed of the price or sales of grain and bacon in Cincinnati on that day. The former is twaddle —the latter is information. Then again, in our dispatches this morning, the cab’e informs us that a paper in Vienua had stated “that ar -ratigcmer.ts are being made which will p.-obably pacify Europe,” and's Liver pool dispatch of yesterday, published this moruing, states that the “short time movement among the cotton mills of Lancashire is extending,” but it does not say a word about tbe price or sales of Cotton in Liverpool. To know that information, we must refer to tbe meagre reports ol the day prevfohs. r Now all this is wrong, and the Asso ciation that breaks up this humhaggery will get all the patronage of the .South ern press. We cannot help thinking, however, that if all the Southern dailies wmrld unite in a meeting, say to be called by our friend, Clark, of tbe Mobile Adver tiser, President of the Southern Press Association, good remedies might be made, and our papers placed upon a more independent aud advantageous basis than they now oticapf.—C/iarle*- ton Js’etcs, kept, 17. We took the position some time ago that the Associated Press was a North ern institution. . One of our City cotem poraries asserted, on the contrary, that it wna a ‘general partnership, of which every paper that payed for the news was a member. Recent developments have vindicated our position. The “New York Associated Press'' has discharged its General Agent, Mr. D. H. Craig, and appointed Mr. Simonton in his place ; and this without consulting the Augusta “members” of the Association. In lact all the recent occurrences go to show that- it was a Northern Association ; what it is now ’vfofiqpj - kp|)w, : This fact, though, is very , evident that there ip no A sab tinted Pres* ia Augusta. The statement of the Asps is that the Agent here is acting for Mr. Craig, and Mr. Cgaig is not, noy, .with the Associated Press. ' It will bq.eeen ,by tbe above article, the ChaWfeston' 'Aisws, that -the Associated Pfgss,aff;u™'are considerably mixed up ; and we hope out of these -Squabbles to get justice at .last. , ‘ The suggestion to have a meeting of the Southern daily .newspapers is q very good one, and meets with onr Hchrty endorsement. ’ ■ . ■ '■> Tbi Election TO-U4Y. —Thp,,Elec tion tjo decide the question of “ Sub scription” or "No Subscription'’ to .the Columbia and Augusta Railroad, takes place to-day.
