Tho files of such n newspaper cxclto curiosity nt first, interest ns ono proceeds through pages yellow with ngo, nnd dually won dor and admiration nt tho marvelous human progress of a century. It spans time. Tho thumb Is upon tho log cabin nnd tho linger tip of 1780 touches tho modern palaco of 1880. It is n huge hnndful, too. I havo lvoforo mo a copy of Tho Au gusta Chronlclo and Ouzctto of tho Stato dated Saturdny.Oct. 0, 1700. Tho motto is "Freedom of tho Press nnd Trial by Jury Shall Remain Invlolnto." Tho pub lisher's announcement follows: "Printed by Jolm'n. Smith, printer to tho stato; essays, articles of Intelligence adver tisements, etc., will bo received and ovory kind of printing performed," Tho paper consisted of four pages of threo columns each, containing nows from Philadelphia n month old; from Alexan dria, Va., two months: from Now York, threo months, nnd from London and Paris four months old; original poetry and a variety of uniquo and quecrly worded advertisements. I reproduco tho following extract from tho nows col umns: lExtrsct of bitter from New York, Aug. St. lniUDcunu, Sept 2. Yestonliky morning tho president of tho united Statot, with his family. et off from this city for Mi teat at Mount Vernon In Virginia, where ho will rvldo till till proaenco Is necvesary at Phila delphia. Ho was accompanied to hi bargo by tho gover nor of tho state, tlm principal ofllccn of gorcru. ment, tho nia jor nuil corporation, officers of tht city, and a number of tho cltUcns, who bade him ln affectionate farewell The parting sceao was solemn; luo roar or tlio cannon that were ared on bU cinbarkatlou humbly expreasod tho emotion of tho mind ou tho departure of him whom all hold so dear: ttio heart was full tho tear dropped from tho eye; It wm not to Ihj roftralned; It wo seen; and the president appeared venslbly monnl by tho last mark of esteem for hU character and affection for his person. Today such nows would bo amplttlcd to a column mid headed "special dis patch."

Wi captured two sail of the lino, sunk two others. aud UUabled four more in such a manner that it was thought they could not reach tho ort of Cadti; that the Ilritlih (loot had suffered very much In their rigging and sails, lost two of their captains aud a great number of men. Tho modern newspaper would have chartered ti bteamer carrying a cablo from Now York to tho eceno of contlict and ticked tho news into tho editorial rooms during tho progress of tho fight, Tho foreign news, four mouths old, shows tho dilllculty which Tho Chronlclo had (n spending information: Paws.

Tho local nows, with tho exception of nn obituary notlco nnd a poem, is pub lished in tho advertising columns. The poem is a quaint nnd droll bit of senti ment, which tho modern editor would smllo to read: TO MISS w l u Sweetest syren of tho Augustan stage, Adored by youth, resocted by old age, Permit mo now to sing hi homespun lays, Thy charms divine that all, who know, must praise.

Ills face, of which I present hero a likeness, is a typo of tho Irish American, particularly tho Irish-American of tho southern states, who is utmost invariably successful mid a leader in tho community whoro ho lives. Mr. Walsh is no exception. Mr. Walsh was threo times sent aa a delegato at largo to tho national Demo cratic conventions of 1870 at St. Louis, 1880 at Cincinnati and 1834 at Chicago, and was au original Clovcland supporter, besides being on tho national Domocratio executive committee for four years.

Samuel Spencer, president of tlio Baltimore nnd Ohio rail road, llfteen years ngo wns ngent nt ono of tho small stations on that lino. Tom King, now ono of tho vico presidents of tho road, commenced ns brnkeman, W. K. Ackerman, general agent of tho Balti more and Ohio, and formorly president of the Illinois Central, readily recalls tho days when ho earned less than $10 a week as n transfer clerk. Biiorltitciii!ent Ills soil, of the New York Central nnd Hud son Illvcr railroad, worked his way up from switchman to brnkemiiii, conductor and freight ngent. J, M. Touccy. nsslst ant 8UK)rliiteudeutof tho same road, less thriti twenty years ngo wns n station agent on a Now England line. Assistant President Tilllnghnst, of the Central, wns formerly a fireman, and Trnlllo Manager Ullfurd, of tho snmo corporation, in tho enrly sixties wns n clerk in tho freight department of mi Ohio road. Tlility years ngo there lived on tho lino of tho Delaware, Lackawanna mid West ern railroad in northeastern Pennsyl vania a fanner whoso 12-year-old boy would neglect his chores nnd steal oil to watch tho engines. Tho boy wns seldom hnppy save when In tho company of tho employes of the road. When ho was n fow yenrs older ho suddenly disappeared to turn up n couplo of weeks Inter as a brnkeman on n coal train nt $25 per month. Tho station ngent near Ids fa ther's farm had obtained tho plnco for htm. Tho boy did not mlstnko his call ing, and has been climbing up over since. His iinmo is Jeromo A. Fill moro, nnd ho Is now general superintendent of tho Central nnd Southern Pnciflo railway system nt tt salary of $10,000 a year. W. B. Strong, president of tho Santa Fo system, has n history very similar to that of Fillmoro. Ho roso from freight brakcmati to station ngent, telegraph operator, and since then his strides for ward havo lieen fast and long. First Vico President Smith, of tho samo company, thought ho was fortun oto when ho received nn appoint ment ns station master at nn out of tho way town ou a bankrupted Indiana lino. Goorgo L. Sands, tho Santa Fo's general superintendent, commenced his, career as a brako twister. President Clark, of tho Illinois Central, was an engineer (lfty years ngo, and J. L. Joffroy, tho general tuanngorv when a young man, learned tho machinist's trade so thor oughly that ho could now build a loco motive, build a now bridgo or repair nn old ono. General Superintendent Kerrigan com menced his training for tho management of tho 0,000 miles embraced in tho Mis souri Pnciflo system as axnian on tho Iron Mountain road. Later ho becamo rodman, and ovory thing that was given him to do was doao so well that ho now rocolvcs $10,000 a year. General Agent Hitchcock, of tho Union Pacific, and William II. Holcomb, general manager of tho Oregon Railroad company, both began as brakemon. Twclvo years ago W. S. Mellon, now general manager of tho Wisconsin Central, was telegraph operator on a Wisconsin road, with seemingly llttlo prospect of, promotion. A year or so later, liowovor, ho was ap pointed station agent at Racino, and ho has been advancing cvor since. Ho can't bo over 33, nnd as ho is ono of tho best equipped railroad men in tho country his futuro is indeed a bright ono. A. A. Allen, Manager Mcllcu's assistant, com menced his railroad career in 1808 as a telegraph messenger boy. Honry C. Bradley, tho Wisconsin Central's general freight ngent, also began in tho samo way. The man who rides over tho Chicago and Alton railroad on a pass issued by tho general manager roads at tho bottom of tho pass tho namo "O. n. Chnppoll." In war times this samo Chnppell was a freight brakomnn on tho Galcsburg divi sion of tho Chicago, Burlington and Qulncy railroad. Ho nover fooled away his tlmo, and omploycd nil his lelsuro in learning tho details of railroading. Ono day ho camo under tho notice of tlio gen eral superintendent of tho road, who took him into his ofllco. There ho learn ed telegraphy and bocamo n train dis patcher. His career slnco then is well known. An ox-brakeman is J. L. Han rulian, general manager of tho Loulsvillo and Nashvillo road. President Thomas, of tho Nashvillo nnd Chattanooga, com menced as a station master. Henry F. Royco, who for some years has boon gen eral superintendent of tho Chicago, Rock Island aud Pacific, used to bo nn ongino wiper in the Boston round houso of tho Boston and Worcester Railroad. Gen eral Manager St. John, of tho samo road, commenced as ussistant to tho ticket agent nt Quincy, Mnss. Goorgo L. Cnr man, who is now commissioner in half a dozen railroad pools and trafllc associa tions, started in as a train boy. Austin Corbln, president of tho Read ing road, was a country lawyer nt Daven port, la., thlrty-llvo yenrs ego, nnd J. L. Bell, general trafllc manager of tho same road, wns for yenrs' n freight clerk in the Philadelphia otllce o' the Reading, J, II. Olhousen, general superintendent of tho Central Ilallroad of Now Jersey, used to work in tho machino shops nt Potts town, Pa. Ho was a good machinist, mid makes a good superintendent. John Adams, general superintendent of tho Fitchburg ralhoad, also started in as n journeyman machinist. Warren E. Locko. the Fltchburg's general freight agent, commenced as n brukemau, and W. H. Barnes, of tho Boston nnd Abany line, ns freight conductor. Georgo L. Biadbury, now general manager of tho Ijike Erie and Western, began In tho sutiu wny. Tho average railroad man holds to tho opinion that ho who Is faithful in n fow things will in duo time be given chargo over many, and it would look us though tho u"'ragb railroad man is about right.
