Who would have thought of old man Schneider in Augusta as a stock¬ holder in oiu* Railroad ? He took only 11 vo hundred dollars. George R. Lombard is a large stock¬ holder in our R. R. He is a sensible man. A few more shares for sale. Several communications this week of much interest on the subject of our Railroad. The News is the only medium for getting information concerning the progress of our hearts desire. We go to considerable trouble and some ex¬ pense to furnish the latest and most reliable intelligence on this all absorb¬ ing subject. As Col. Lang says, it is a great pleasure for us Lincoln county people to go to Augusta. ’Tis there we meet the managers and officers of our Rail¬ road, and have them tell us of the cer¬ tainty of the immediate building of it, and of the big things in Store for us. We intend to publish shortly the amount of stock subscribed for our Railroad in Augusta, and the names of the Stock-holders. It will be in¬ teresting. Till: AVGUSTA AND ELVER TON ROA1). The Subscription Almost Com pletcd, and. Augusta Not let Canvassed. Over $75,000 has been subscribed f< *r ttie Augusta, -Elberton and Chicago Road, and ASigusta has not yet been fully cavassed. President James P. Verdery has since his election been ac costed by bis friends and vduutaiy subscriptions amounting to several ih< usand dollars, we’tl ink between ten aud twenty thousand, have been made. A regul. r canvass - f Augusta is pre¬ paring, and the $100,000 raised. necessary to begin work will stain be When this is done, President Ver¬ dery will immediately pul surveyors in the field and the line will be run as fai as Elberton. It is policy of the man¬ agement to have this work done as soon as possible, in order that the peo, le along the line may know that the work is begun in earnest and that the road is no a dream. The counties of Lincoln, Elbert, Columbia aud Wilkes have come nobly to the front and put up liberal sub¬ scriptions. They even promise to double these subscriptions as soon as the work is begun and, Augusta is heard from. This sounds like business, and business is really what our couutrr neighbors mean. They are tired of be¬ ing isolated and they want to come back to Augusta to trade. It is now Augusta’s time to act and speak. -oiVhat will our merchants, cap italists and people do for the Augusta and Elberton Road.— Augusta Hews. The Blew Road. Yesterday morning Mr. Jas. P. Ver¬ dery, President of the Augusta, El berton and Ch-cag'» Railway, bad an in¬ teresting and satisfactory interview with Mr. G. J. F'reacre, a prominem official of the Richmond and Danville Railroad system A glance at the map must show the importance of this pro¬ jected route to this great system. An air line to Elbertc.n it would readily widen the road to Toccoa into a broad gauge. Thence across to Tallulah Falls and Rabun Gap, now nearly completed, the line would be straight to Maryville, Tenn., which the Clyde Syndicate are certain to finish. The road fiom Ma¬ ryville to Knoxville is already com¬ pleted ; thence connections are being marie by the Cincinnatti Southern and Louisville aud N shville branches to the great West, securing a line of nearly two hundred miles-shorter than the present circuitous route. Mr. Fore •icte readily recognized the importance of our proposed Elberton r ail, and ex pressesa great, anxiety to see it speedily built. At one time this system made some offer to build this line if the city would surrender to them the A. A K ; and when the syndicate reaches anoth¬ er flush period it may be well U) take them up. Much has been said about the treatment of Augusta by the Clyde hut an inspection of the Chronicle’s cotton receipts every day will show that, next to the Georgia Railroad, the C., C. & A. pours most cotton into Au¬ gusta. So the Richmond aud Danville may again turn their atteutiou to *he iSavanah Valley when hungry for au uther “scoop.”- Chron. and Con.
