CHANGE OF SCHEDULE.

We are pleased to note the change of schedule
on the Greenville and Columbia Railroad, which
went into effect last Monday. The cars now ar
rive a. this place about the setting of the sun, aud
those not addicted to early rising are allowed a
reasonable time to get breakfast before taking their
departure on the train. We trust that an early
completion of the Broad River Bridge will cause
another reduction in the time allowed between this
place and Columbia.
The freights, we will remark in this connection,
have been reduced somewhat by this change, and
also the passenger fare. The new management of
this Road have much before it, however, and will
not meet the expectation of the public until there
is still further reduction in freights especially
There is an organized thieving system, which has
been prevalent, that ought to engage the attention
of the President also, and we earnestly hope that
measures will be inaugurated at once, if they are
not already in operation, which will prevent the
dsgraceful plundering of packages between here
and Columbia. This stealing has been so common
of late that merchants and others have come to re-
rard it as a matter of course, and have almost
ceased to complain of it to the proper authorities
since their efforts heretofore have availed neither

PRESS CONVENTION.

Our esteemed friend of the Edgefeld Advertiser
suggests that there be Convention of the news
papers of this State for tho purpose of establish
ing uniform rates for advertising, otc The
object had in view meets with our hearty approba-
ton, and we take pleasure in urging the pro-
priety of this assemblage upon the fraternity
throughout the State 1t is a matter Of vital i'm
portance to country journalists in particular that
this convention be held, and that an uniform sys-
tenn be digested to govern them in the future. But
it is unnecessary to enter into any extended detail
to convince the intelligent members of the press
that this meeting should be held ut On early day.
The bare proposition is enough to awaken o
prompt response, and to the end that others may
alter improve or adopt the suggestion, we propose
that this Convention be held in the city Of Colum
bia on Thursday the 14th day of June proximo.
Let the fraternity in Columbia issue call for the
Convention on that day, and we are sure that
there will be general representation of the press

ROLL OF HONOR.

The proprietor of this journal proposes, during
this summer, to publish neat and convenient
pamphlet, which shall contain the rolls of all the
companies raised in Anderson District for the Con-
fedcrate service during the late war. In order to
perpetuate the names of the men who participated
in struggle for independence, the cooperation
of all officers and men who may have the desired
information in their possession is earnestly So
ioited. Those having original rolls Of companies
or detachments will confer favor by sending the
same without delay to this Office, stating opposite
each name the death discharge of the individual
if this occurred. Where died, when and by reason
Of wounds received in battle, sickness or other
wise. And any other information which will make
up the individual history of the soldiers of Ander-
son District. The Importance of this enterprise is
suggested by the fact that there is official record
Of the same in existence and this will supply the
people with correct history of each man who
perilled life in their cause. Though that be
forever lost, there is duty owe to the dead
and the living also that should be performed while
participants in the grand struggle are yet fresh il
their recollections of comrades. The work will be
executed in the best style of Typography, and will
be sold at the bare cost of publication. The as
sistance of our friends and late comrades is cor
daily invited in this undertaking.

plished gentleman.

For III, hfeLliocncer.

Mr.. Ep1ron: In your issue of the 18th inst,
you cal for the evidence of the trial or acquittal
of the murderers of poor Albert Geer, and assign
good and sufficient reasons why the whole facts in
the case should be made known. hoped ere this
to have seen some response to this inquiry, with
explanations entirely satisfactory to the community
at large, and especially of this immediate section,
where the brutal murder was committed; but to
my surprise no response has been given, and no
information as to the whereabouts of Dan and
Henry. In the absence of all information, 1t
seems perfectly clear to conclude that they have
not been punished for the horrd deed, or it would
have been made public.
Is it reasonable to suppose they escaped? If
they had escaped, certainly we should all have
known it long ago, by seeing rewards offered for
their apprehension, as has been the custom IA
very proper one) in other cases; but not word
has been said publicly in relation to these muir
dcrers. It is, however, not impossible that secret
rewards have been offered which are never de-
signed for the public but intended only for the
confidential tew. While upon this subject, one or
two questions present the.msslyeS,-a oes the very
and demand solution by those who are placed as
sentipels upon the watch tower Of liberty, and
whose duty it is, to warn the people of every in
fringement upon their rights and of approaching
danger.
Are secret rewards consistent with the principles
which underle the very foundation of Republican
liberty, and regulate the rightful exercise of the
authority of Republican governments toward a
free people? Is it not right that the perpetrators
of crime should be publicly known, and should not
the rewards offered for their apprehonsons made
public? If the murderers of Geer have been al
lowed to escape without any effort to apprehend
them, it is an offence against this community
against the laws of civilization and humanity that
demands correction. The community look with
much interest to this case, and feel that they have
q right to demand that oil the facts should be made
known, and hope you may be able to give such e1-
plantations as will give general satisfaction.

DECORATING THE GRAVES OF OUR DEAD

DECORATING THE GRAVES OF OUR DEAD.
The ladies of this yicinage will unite this after
noon in fitting homage to the memory Of Confed-
crate soldiers buried in our midst. With the pure
reverence they have ever evinced for the gallant
hosts who battled in manifest effort for their honor
and safety, these noble women are zealously en-
gagged in arranging the details for this simple and
affecting observance. The ladies will meet this
afternoon, at fue o'clock, at the Presbyterian
church, decorate the graves within that enclosure,
and from thence repair to the Baptist graveyard,
to perform the simple yet beautiful rite over the
remains of the soldiers buried there The bare an
nouncement is sufficient to attract thither all those
who knew and respected them in life, and in death
love to honor and consecrate their memories.

FREEpMENs BUREAU OFFIoERs.-It now ap-
pears that the President has not ordered the arrest
of all the officers of the Bureau engaged in farm
ing specializing &c., but only those in the State OF
North Carolina. He has, it seems, ordered Major
General Howard to cause the arrest of every officer
of the Bureau in North Carolna, who is engased or
pecuniariy interested in the cultivation of plana-
TONS and Brigadier General W. E. Strong has been
dispatched to execute the order. Judge Advocate
General Holt has been instructed by the President
to make out charges and specifications against
these officers, with view to their trial before q
court-martial The Rev. Fitz the "blood hound
of Zion, snd autocrat of the Freedmens village in
North Carolina, is under arrest awaiting trial On
the showing of Generals stOadman and Fullerton,
he ought to be hanged.

ExrRAoapINARY ESCAPE.

The murderers of young ALBERT GEEn were
permitted to escape from the guard at Columbia on
the 3Oth of March last They were confined with
other colored prisoners, and were permitted, we
repeat, to make their escape from prison. Gov.
ORR enquired of Gen. AMEs respecting the dspo-
stion made of them, and his answer returned to
the effect of the foregoing. Gen. AMEs doubtless
wished them held in safe custody, but from the
showing made by himself to Gov. ORR, which we
have been permitted to read, there is culpability
in the fact of their being entrusted to the care OF
soldiers who had before evinced disposition to be
careless and negligent of their duties Even
though there were no other troops at his command,
the civil authorities might have assisted in this
matter. Here were two brutal murderers Bet loose
upon the world, nnd the only excuse offered for
their criminal escape is that the private soldiers
and subordinate officers were lacking in discipline
and good conduct. This is shameful
The community of Anderson has been held up
to the public gaze as defiant, disaffected and dis
| loyal. We mean the white citizens In the midst
of this community horrible and unprcvoked
homicide is committed by freedmeu-they ac-
knowledge the deed, and the very forbearance OF
the citizons to exercise the principle of summary
punishment for this foul murder is The highest
proof that there does not exist the spirit of lawess-
ness and insubordnaton to authority with which
We have been grossly maligned. The murderers
of young GEER are sent forward to Columbia, there
to mako their escape. 1t is sheer nonsense to
prate about there being no blame attached to OFF,
GERS for this result Before the prisoners left An
derson they were promised liberty Well, in all
probability this occurrence would not have been
known, but for the sleepless vigilance of public
opinion in this community. And yet that public
is sought to be appeased by the declaration that
Henry and Dan, freedmen, escaped the guard.
This is adding insult to injury. Why was not
reward offered for their apprehension Why were
not the facts of their escape pacarded to the world
as was the case in the lamcn.able murder of the
three soldiers ct Browns Ferry? Why has two
whole months elapsed before the truth is brought
to light that these vile wretches again at large
Why, in the name of justice, has this whole con-
nvance been yelled in obscurity? These are ques-
tions which every man interested in the peace and
security of society will be constrained to ask him
self when tie facts are promulgated to him. We
pause for reply.
Since the above was written, TIE communication
of ga Citizen" has been received. Our CORES
pondent is partially informed in this article as to
the disposition made of the freedmen, but there
are other inquiries pertinent to the subject under
consideration that we cheerfuliy give place to his
well-timed favor. Hope to hear from him again.

viding that the latter officer shall be elected by

Tho Secretary was recreant .ool of recreant

Hale, Republican, reprovcd Stevens, and showed
that Congress has no such power of appointment.
Mr. Deano, Republican, defended the Secretary,
who was not slave and thus prevented from
speaking his sentiments. Dare he not have an
opinion of his own? Must we oil square opinions
by regular line at the dctatior of an individual
Just such acts as Stevens were creating very
