THE sTocKHoLDERs MEETING.

The Stockholders of the GroGhville md iCosdth-
bia Railroad held their annual meeting In coluh.
bia on Thursday and Friday last. This 6hs per
haps, the most important convention ever hela BY
the stockholders, and radical changes wefeafecteA
which will either bring prosperity and success 10
the enterprise or absolute failure. Assuredy, the
experiments now introduced cannot allow the Road
to remain in passive condition, and We earneatty
hope that an infusion of activity and enterprise
viii henceforth characterize its management, ans
ultimately place it on footing With TIE frost se
cessful Roads In the country.
The Stockholders met on Thursday at Nickers
sons Hotel The Mayor Of cofatnhbia, Maj. THO.
DoRE STARK, was called to the Chair, and c. Y.
CARR1NdroN, Esq, requested to act as Secretary.
The meeting was largely attended, we learn, and
great interest manifested in the proceedings
Among other important measures it mas decided
to change tie location of the Road from the East
to the West side of Broad River that Is to say, the
Road will be run from Aston, on the westera
ridge beside the RSer antil it reaches point op.
posite Columbia, where substantial bridge win be
bail to cross over TO the city. This change viii
greatly enhance the permanency Of the Road whsh
once built, and indicates spirit Of enterprise and
Improvement which augaTs well for the fature.s
A resolution was adopted which provides, thar
whenever vacancy occurs among the officers and
employees of the Road tie be supplied by the PreniA
dent and Directors, preference shall always %
given to worthy and needy Confederate soldiers,
other qualifications being equeg. This resolution
was introduced by Gen. J. W. HARRISON, Of this
village, and deserves commendation.
The following are the officers elected BY tho
Conveation to serve the ensuing year
.President-HEHR1 P. ,HAHnrrr, of Greensflie.

The new President Of the Road is unknown to
the public generally bat brings to his distinguished
position fair reputation for industry, sagacity
and enterprise. We wish him . pleasant career In
SO difficult an Office.
After the adoption Of a resolution, rendering
complimentary life tickets TO Hon. T. C. PEnarS

MILITARY coMM1ss1oHs.

The days Of these ARBITRARY and merciless tri-
bunals have ended. No longer are peaceful citi-
zens TO be arragncd for trivial offences, or charg
ell with high crimes and misdemeanors by nnrelia-
BILE classes, to be dragged from their homes in q
ruthless manner, and convicted upon questionable
testimony Such things have been of ordinary
occurrence, and We regret to say that there have
been found officers of the United States army who
disgraced their uniform by an oyer-weaning de-
sire to make our people suffer. But, it is simple
justice to add, that in most instances these men
belonged to class which never met m enemy up
on the field of honorable warfare, and only sought
the service Of their country when the notes Of MAR
we're fast dying out As general rule, We be.
lieve, those men who endured faithful service un-
der the flag Of the Union havo been 10th to op-
press and tyrannize over q fallen but not dishon-
ored people. If their manly instincts did not
prompt them to such a course, there was respect,
engendered by combat on bloody fields with South
ern men, which forbid thcm taking part in the
dirty work of bringing our peopleto to degradation
and despair. By direction of the President, the
Secretary Of War has
"Ordecd, That hereafter, Whenever offences
committed by civilians are to be tried where civil
tribunals are in existence which can try them,
their cases are not authorized to be, and will not
be, brought before military eourtsnartial or com
missions, but will be committed to the proper CIVIL
authorities"
This is the text of the order, and can leave no
doubt as to its meaning. officers commanding the
various departments must respect this authorlta-
tive declaration which abolishes an anomalous
tribunal wherein the passions and prejudiees of
men too often controlled, and justice was seldom
administered. The people of the South, over
whom these odious Courts rcigned in terror, and
whose liberty of thought never dared expression
through fear of summary dealing, can never sufh-
GENTLY praise the magnanimiy and fearlessness of
ANDREW JOHNSON in this matter. His entire
course has been tempered with desire to allevi-
ate the suferings of the South, while maintaining
the dignity and respect of the Constitution he is
sworn to protect, but it has taken time for him to
accomplish that policy which is being brought now
to full fruition. In his trials and difficulties, the
South accords him hearty support and a faithful
allegiance to ancient landmarks
