Change of the Great South Western Hail.

Change OF the Great South.Weatern MAIL
= We see by the Charleston Mercury Of Tuesday
last, that very considerable change is about to
be made in the running of the Mails on the Great
Southwestern Mail Route Wecopy the follow
ing notice from that paper
GREAT SourHwesrsrN MAIL RorTE.-We
learn from an unofficial bat perfectly reliable
source, that arrangements are about deing made
with the Post Office Department by which
greatly increased celebrity aud facility will he
given to the mails and travel for the South and
West. The plan contemp plates, we believe, the
arrival of the Northern mail in Charle.tou ut
Z o'clock, n. m. and the running of two trains
day by the South Carolna Railroad Company
between Charleston and Hamburg. The first
train will leave Charleston al Il. IN. and the
second, or express train, at say II IL a. IN,
the first train will leave Augusta ut 10 a. IN.
The express train is to taken up the mails
when they arrive too late for the early trains,
and reach Charleston or Augusta, as the case
may be. In time to save the connection.
From Augusta, we understand. the Georgia
Railroad will run two trains to Atlanta; one
night train, with the mail; the other an Accom-
modation train, leaving Augusta and Atlanta at
6 Il. ~.
The enterprising proprietors Of the stage line
between Palmetto (the present terminus Of
the Atlanta and La Grange Railroad) and West
Point, the connecting point with the Montgom
cry Railroad will also run an extra line Of stages
in connection with the Georgia and Carolina
Railroads. The arrangements beyond West
Point we are not apprised Of, but we doubt not
from what we know Of the energetic and pub
lie spirited gentleman at the head Of the Com
pany, that the Montgomery Railroad will be
ready to cooperate efficiently with the other
roads in any arrangements to promote the in.
terests and convenience Of the public on the
great Southwestern Thoroughfare.
By these arrangements the train for Colum.
bia aud Camden would leave Charleston at q
a. H. and arrive at hose points at 3 IL p. m. in
time to reach Newberry, the present terminus of
the GreenviIle Railroad, aud Winnsboro, the ter.
minus OF the Charlotte Railroad, at 7 or 8 o'ciork
p. nj. Stages leaving these points, say ats or 9
o'clock, p. m. would arrive at Greenville by IL
or p. M. the next day, Yorkyille at 10 or 10,
a. m. and Charlotte, N. c. the same evening.
This would reduce the time from Charleston to
Greenvile or Yorkville to day and hall, and
to Charlotte to less than two days, while by
the present arrangements, it requires two and
half to three days to reach either of the places.

Ur How true to human nature are these lines
from the pen Of the immortal poet
Mans caution often into danger turns;
And his guard, falling, crushes him to death;
Not happiness herself makes good her name,
Our veIy wishes give US not our wish.
How distant of the thing we dote on most,
From that for which we dote felicity?
The smoothest course of nature has its pains +;
And truest friends though even wound our rest,
Without misfortune, what calamties!
And what hostilities, without foe!
Nor are foes wanting to the best on earth.
But endless is the list of human ills,
And sighs might sooner fail. than cause to sigh

- To Sleep to Die.-Never wssrthere a more
practical and terrible application of Hamlet's
memorable doubling questioning, life or death
soliloquy, than in the case of the three negroes
in Texas, two Of whom-a man and his wife,
were lately found by return party OF the Mexi-
can boundary commission, in state OF starva-
tion. having killed and nearly devoured their
eomrade. The Lavaca papers says they had
lived for many weeks on roots and such things
as they gould pick up, but finally ecoming so
nearly fan,ished with hunger, that one OF the
men proposed that they should cast lots to see
which Of the three should be killed and eaten
hy tl,e others but Henry would not agree that
bis wife should cast lots, for il it should fall up
on on her to be killed, he could not eat a mouth
iul of her, So the two men agreed that the
arst M one that got TO sleep should be killed by
tne other. Henry, who had his wife 20 help
him nroyed the most wakeihI, and the otheI
ell a victim to the demand Of hunger.
