In Memphis, Tennessee. on the 10th OF Fee'u-
ary lass, after very short illness, Eugene, only
son of Col. James A. Hart, in the l7th year oi
his ago-of Influenza, terminating in an attec-
tion Of the brain.
Rarely has it fallen to our lot to record death
so startling in its nexpoctedness SO b!lghting 10
tue hopes of the surviving relatives. But yester"
day, as it were, the deceased was among u.s.
fresh and blooming in the springtide OF YOUTH
with the bright promise Of future life otuseful-
ness and honor, and with the strong ties of paren"
tai affection clustering thick around him: In
q few h,urs the arrow has been sped, and tine
loved aud cher shed one has been laid in the still
and pnlseless tomb To the down.strIcken par"
snts, whose warmest hopes have been crushed 50
suddenly, the voice of coadoencc would sound
h1rsh aud cold Comfort, under so uttor bs"
reavment, can come only from the bosom of God.
Yet, when time has in some degree lifed the
weigh, of anguish from the bruised heart it may
soothc, though it ccanot heal their sorrow, to
know that the deep and heartfelt sympathy OF
their friends and acquaintances has been with
them in this their sorest hour Of trial. The i'm
mcnse concoursc of our citizens OF both sexes,
which attended the last rites to The deceased on
yesterday evening, attcsts the strong hold pos
sessed bv the afflicted relatives upon the sens!oili.
Ties Of this community.

We should Judge agriculture to be better

express our surprise that the conductor OF the
journal above mentioned, has not thrown aside

For the Chc-aw Gazette.
STATEMENT

In relation to the matz serricc betueen Kal.
cigh n. c. and Columbia S. c.
The mail line from Raleigh N. c. through
Fayetteville, Cheraw, and Camden, to Colum-
bia S. c. had for many years been the route
on which was transported the great mail Tor
New Orleans and the whole Southern coun-
try.
From 1881 to 1884 inclusive, the cost OF
transporting the great mail on this route was
as follows:
From Raleigh to Fayettc-
vc, S70 per mile.
From Fayetteville TO Che
raw, "a 70 "
From Chcraw to Columbia, 80 80 "
From 1885 to 1888 inclusive the cost Of this
service was as follows
From Raleigh to Fayctte-
vile, 1888 per mile
From Fayetteville to Che
raw, 50 Is "
From Cheraw to Columbia, s. % 60
In the advertisement of last year, proposals
we're invited f,r rapid daily mail along this
line in carriages made for the purpose, with
only three outside passengers, designed to su-
perccde the Express mail. The proposals re-
ceived for this service were as follows.
. Ftom Raleigh to Fayette-
/ vile miles an hour, $3.50 pee mile
From Fayetteville to Che
raw mics an hour, 2Si II " e
From Cheraw to Columbia,
smiles and half an hour, 295 d
These prices being much higher than the
existing prices of the ordinary and Expre''
mails combined-put that kind OF service ou'
Of the question. Indeed it is believed to be
npracticable at the speed proposed in the pre-
sent state OF the roads, at least for a portion
the year.
The lowest bids received fer the ordinar,
mail at the speed OF 5 miles an hour, notwith
standing the service was twice advertised
were as follows.
