CHARLOTTE AND South Carolina RAIL
RoAD.-The mercantile community Of Co.
iumbia, and the public at large, will NO
doubt recognize the early completion Of
the Charlotte and South Carolina Railroad
As matter Of grateful intelligence. The
unfinished portion Of the rosd extends
from the eight to the sixteen-mile post. not
including the trestls spanning Kilian,s
Greek, which is already rebuilt. The work
South OF the stream is under the direction
Of Mr.. John C. McKabe, with force Of
forty sturdy sons Of toll; while that ON the
North is under the superintendence Of Mr..
Moses Wootton, with q similar number Of
freedmen. Energy and despatch have
characterized the progress Of the work.
and it is confidently believed that by the
9Th OF the coming month the last rail ne
cessary to the completion Of the work will
be laid. The Superintendent OF the COM
pany's affairs, the generous impulses Of
whose nature is only equaled by the in
flexible devotion to which he addresses
himself to the interests Of the road, has
promised an old-time barbecue, and some
thing with which to top-ofT, to tho party
hrst reaching the trestle at Killian's, from
which both are equi-distant. 1t remains
to be seen whether the negro or white man,
In this instance, is capable Of performing
the greater amount Of labor in . given
time
This road, like most others in the South,
has suffered greatly by the war. Economy
and good administrative ability, however.
on the part of its officers, viii soon restore
1t to the pathway OF success and prospsri-
ty, and thereby cause its past losses to be
numbered
With the things that were
A sehool-boy' . tale, the wonder Of an hour a.
