Some action should be taken by Ai ken and Edgefield looking to the ex tension of the Cumberland Gap road to meet the Knoxville road that is soon to show its head over the moun tains via Kabun Gap. Charleston is backing a route but it leaves Aiken ont, being ai: extension of the Caro lina Midland road via Batesburg. The most direi-t route conies by Aiken and the matter should be properly agita ted.- Viken Journal end Review. Well said, contemporary, and a road from Edgefield to McCormick, about 22 miles, would give us, Aiken and Edgefield, not only a connection with the Knoxville road of which you speak but with several other roads, the Sea board Air Line among others. What say you brother Carpenter of the Mc Cormick Times, shall we build tIn road ?-E d ge 1 i e 1 d Advert i se r. Yes, let's build it. We bilieve that if the Knoxville road is built they will use the Savannah Valley road from here to Anderson, which is in the hands of a receiver and is soon to be sold, and they will then doubtless want to go by Edgefield and Aiken on to Port Royal. Orin case the Knox ville road comes by Abbeville, the CBrnWrotifinp mk Vi^ijUte-es? tended by McCormick to Abbeville, ?nd then our Aiken and Edgefield friends would have direct connection with three of the most important southern systems. Talk up the mat ter, Brother Adams, and get your peo ple interested, and we assure you that when called upon McCormick will respond with a liberal subscription for the road.-McCormick Times. [For the Advertiser.] Why, Oh Why! A Few Points Pithily Put. EDITOR ADVERTISER: Please an swer a few questions for the sat isfaction and general information of the public : 1st. Why will some run down at the heel anti papers continue to nag and insult, reformers and then clamor for peace? 2nd, Why are some pop-gun editors of these anti sheefs so rejoiced over the recent decision of the United States court and claim that the law was a crime when the framers of that law are their ring leaders? 3rd. How can some peopto claim to he full of patriotism and shout Hal lelujah when the laws of their State are violated, or set aside hy some federal authority, and are decrying and fighting their State administration? 4th. Why is South Carolina so far ahead of any other southern state in manufacturing? And why are the bonds of South Carolina selling at such a high premium is it because the antis are so pa triotic? 5th. Has Judgo G?ll* repented of his sin and bad conduct in Wil mington North Carolina in 1805, when he was in command ol* that run-away-negro brigade which was such a terror to the defenseless women and children of that grand old city? Gth. Do the antis know that this same Golf was always a strong ab olitionist and that he was egged on hy some whom we South Caroli nians delighted to honor in days pass'-d? 7tb. Why has Columbia lost tho Slate fair, was it because the "State" did not want the country people to come there ann did all it could to drive them away by calling them idiots eic. 8th. Do the editors of some newspapers think the Reform pol iticians are afraid to speak in public upon the situation? 9th. Where were all the smart Elie anti growlers in "76." Are they anxious for those Irving limes to return so that they may seek a safe hiding place like they did al that lime? 10th. Why vas Charleston cut oft" in the black district? And why did those Cbarlestoiiians try to kec,> our State officers from re funding the State debt at 4$ per cent, and why did the majority of the antis wag their heads whenev er the State gained a case in court? 11th. Why oh why will some I ?i>( ii* en!! list h:?'-!V.8 men-f born straight autis,'act ro strange ly. Verily it is strange. REFOH MER. Personal Mention. Mr?. E. H.

Trenton, came over and spent Sunday with his mother, Miss Lizzie Kubanks who has been leaching at Barrs Chapel, has closed her school and relumed home to her grandmother's, Mrs. Elizabeth Russell. ** Lorena. Greenville Newe. The memorial day exercises at Anderson the other day included the singing of ''Lorena." Proba bly the majority of those who were prosent had never heard the song before, "'Tis years since first we met, Lorena." The people who used to sing and whistle "Lorena," who knew and loved every note and word of it, in whose heads and hearts it rang, are passing away from here in increasng numbers every year now. It will not be so very long uutil the last of them bas gone, but we hope it will b?i a long, long lime before .'Lorena" is inst. In the River of Time, sung of in one of the sweetest and niosl majestic brief poems in the En glish language, there is, we are told, aii island of Long Ago in which things broken but made beautiful by memory and love, forgotten by the many but prec ious to some hearts, linger aud live a life of their own. There are fragments of songs which nobody sings, pressed aud dried and with ered flowers with^volumes of love . and loss and longing "and infiui ties of pathos folded within their poor, lifeless petals-flowers which bring back the fragrance of days which tbs years have swept into the far past, of the gardens of sea sons long gone. There are rib Irons and gloves and buttons and broken toys of children, large and small, locks of hair and fading pictures. Probably the songs which nobody sings live longest. Their melodies are woven among the heart strings. Considered as works of art few of them, we sup pose, would be very highly valued by skilled musicians. The works of the masters are immortal, but the numb*?r who can understand them will always be limited. The bumbler composers who make the popular songs reach the pop ular heart, and confer the bless ings of love and hope and memory on multitudes. We do not know that there is much in "Lorena." It. will never be a classic. Probably tho writer of it had no thought it would live long. But it was boru in time of trouble and chauge when sentiment and passion were strong and hearts were vibrant to impressions and impulse. Like a melodious echo from a dream-an echo ti tender sentiment, of pathos and vain longing and lost hope-"Lorena" comes faintly, part of a vanished past which seems so unreal now that we may hardly understand that it was not a fleeting vision. The old life of the South was just breaking and departing as the beautiful clouds of sunset time fade into the n.ght. The long pr-'uee was ended and men gather ed from thousands of bornes, each carrying with him'memories and hopes. In the camps where the soldiers gathered about the fires each heart had in it the pictures of familiar scenes and loved faces left behind, for they had all left home, many of them for the first time. Around all the camp fires voices sang of "Lorena." The bands played it and where there were pianos and the harps which used to stand in the corners of parlors its notes floated upon the air from beneath white fingers. As months went by and battles were fought and marches made, as the armies struggled and the tide of war rolled hore and there, 'L -rena" lived, and tho tattered and worn and scarred veterans without tents, blaukets or food sang it. To the very last, all through the last days when hope gave pince to grim desperation and the black cloud of defeat gath ered ever closer and blacker, the men sang "Loi ena" as so many who would sing no more, whose lips were silenced and whose stur dy hearts were cold forever, had sung it,and to the last it carried thoughts back and enveloped souls in the mists of tender memories. So "Lorena" comes now to thou sands like a faint, far away, me lodious echo from brave bright days, from youth departed, from hopes which have gone long ago, from a life of which nothing re main* but m^m ri'-s. Ii brings with it the restfulness ol the old South and many a glimpse of things once so familiar, now so strange and so distant, encom passed with a dreamy haze like that of an Indian Summer. A love song, very simple in words and composition, each note and word of it is freighted with thoughts of camp and battle and comrades, of storm and battle smoke and danger and happiness. It is a song from a dead country, a dead army and a dead past. * . * We hope somebody will always sing "Lorena" now and then. We do not know who ''Lorena" was. Like the singing of Annie Laurie, each heart recall ed a different name with "Lorena." The story of it is ordinary enough. Perhaps that is why the song was loved so-so many men could hear or sing "Lorena" and understand all about it and respond to its measure with their own experi ences and knowledge. Everybody could learn it and in the days when all of us ill the South were dreaming dreams destined never to be realized and hoping for things impossible everybody knew it.
