Of the Road to Savannah—r,elm It Will stimulate Competition—Money Coaid be Seised In Savannah to Extend the Road— tel It be Done. Tbe Sam railroad and the Savannah and Western are at outa according to tbe Savannah Morning News. In speaking of the complications the News goes on to say: “ ‘Savannah ought to have tbe Savan nah, Americus and Montgomery,' said a well-known business man on the Bay. ‘Wo are practically at the mercy of one corporation now and a new outlet is j needed. I believe the money to bring the Sam road in could be raised without any troublo. The relations between tbe Sam rood and tbe Louisville and Nash ville are very close, and in buying inthr Sam we might sccnre tbe Louisville and Nashville. That Is just what Savannah needs now and what we should all pull for.’ “Assistant General Passenger Agent Hardwick of the Central railroad said last night that beginning next Sunday the Central trains which have been run' ning through between Savannah and Americus will run to Lyons, the termi nus of the Savannah and Western, and passengers by this route to Americus and points on the Sam will have to change cars at Lyons, “President Hawkins of the Sam did not arrive in Savannah yesterday as ex pected, but may arrive here to-day from New York.” The News Is authority for the Estate- ment that it w«s the general opinion among those who are In a position to know that the breaking up of the freight and passenger arrangement would injure the Central far more than tho Sam road, Savannah is very anxious to extend the Sam within her borders, expressing tho belief that It will prove a safety-valve for her. In alluding to the variances tbe News'eays: “Tho trouble between the Sam rail road and the Savannah & Western (con trolled by the Central) was the theme of discussion yesterday, and the general opinion was that the breaking up of the freight and passenger arrangement would injure the Central more than it would the Sam road. The latter It send ing its freight by way of Helena and Jestip over the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia and the Savannah, Florida and Western railways.” Th, Work of Man Is Wonderful.

The Early County News contains the following: “About two months ago, a big, burly, brutal looking black nigger, calling him self Bob Hunter, came to this place from Amerious. He rolled cotton, cut wood and did other work for some of tbe white citizens, preached a little and grew un popular with the blacks. Three weeks ago he was taken from hie place of lodg ing here in the corporation, by a mob at night, carried out Id an old field, severe ly beaten and ehot It waa feared for a while that the negro waa killed, bat he is not dead.” Inquiry faila to spot this man Bob Hunter as having lived in Americas, and It looks as If our Blakely friend is trying to saddle on thla community a desperado who has never resided here.
