The Sea Island cotton planters of
South Carolina, who were to hold a con
vention last Thursday with s view to

The Manufacturer's Record says
“Tbs Berner bill, which recently passed
the Georgia house of representatives,
has been defeated in the senate, Geor
gia is to be congratulated that her sena
tors have thus shown their wisdom in
defeating a • measure which would have
proved of greet Injury to the whole
State by seriously crippling all of its
railroads. Instead of fighting railroads
as some of the Southern States are con
stantly doing, it would be the part of
wisdom If they would give every posal
ble enoouragement to railroad builders

railroads and more capital, and It oan

SOLID INDUSTRIAL GROWTH tN THE
SOUTH.
The Manufacturers' Record, of Balti

dustrial progress of the south, says:
"The past week has been a very active
one in southern development, and the
Manufacturers’ Record has very rarely
bad to report a wider range of indus
trial advancement than for the last seven
days, even though the financial world Is
not yot looking for investments In new
ventures to any great extent. Despite
this, however, the south Is poshing
ahead and rapidly organizing new man
ufacturing and mining enterprises
utilize Its vast resources. This growth
Is not confined to any one state, nor to a
few industries only, but takes In the
whole south aud covers almost every
lino of manufacturing, including fur
naces, foundries, cotton mills, coal
mines, iron-ore mines, ice factories,
water works, electric-light works, wood
working enterprises, tobacco factories,
fertilizer factories, breweries, phosphate
mines and works, etc.
The leading event of the week is the
announcement of the final closing of the
salo of 150,000 acres of mineral and
timber land, including coke ovens, lum
ber mill, etc., in Eastern Kentucky to a
Belgian syndicate tor (5,000,000, a part
of which, It is understood, goes Into the
opening of new coal mines, the building
of coke ovens, furnaces, saw-mills, etc.

In that county. It was called Bolton's
factory, though that wss not tbe charter
name. It wss on Rocky creek, within a
few yards of what is now Simpson’s
mills. It was of stone, and Mr. Simpson
has under his mill-house a part of the
atone arch over the door. A part of tbe
name Boltpn is easily read, and the fig
ures 1811 plainly remain. Mr. Bolton, a
Savannah man of that noted rich and
aristocratio family, was chief stock-
bolder. The financial trouble caused by
the war of 1812 caused tbe failure of
this factory. In the old file of the Ga
zette of 1810 the factory property is ad

At no diatant day the question of pav.
ing the streets of Americus will come
up, and preparatory to that event the
city fathers might investigate the merits
of vitrified briek as a paving material.
Lexington, Ky., which claims to have
been the first town in the country to test
bricks on a roadway, la now laying vitri
fied brick on about two miles of streets
It Is claimed by Lexington people that
twenty-five or thirty years ago an old
resident there endeavored to secure tbe
use of bricks for street-making by tbe
local authorities, but, failing In this, he
put down at his own expense a small
amount of brick paving on one of tbe
busiest streets in town, and that these
bricks are etlll lu a good state of preeer-
vatlon. In Galveston there is considera
ble discussion as to what Is the best ma
terial for paving, and Mr. Walter Gres
ham, in reply to inquiries addressed to
prominent men in cities where brick
roadways have been tested, has received
several letters very strongly commend
ing them. Mr. William G. Whipple, of
Little Rook, after describing the manner
of putting down the brick, says: “We
expect the pavement to last Ilk* granite.
It Is now aa smooth and noiseless and as
easy for animal and vehicle as asphalt."
