STANLEY G. TROTT. T. M.
We HAVE received copies OF Frank Leslie's Iius-
trated Newspaper, New York Stadts zeilung, and
New York Ledger, Of Mr.. B. Dosoher, the enter
prising proprietor Of tho Post Office Literary EN-
porium.
DETENTION OF STEAMERs.-The steamships Man
haitian and Alabama, for New York, and Alliance,
for Philadelphia, which we're to have sailed from
this port on Saturday, were detained over until
G~~l -, H. $500. ~ a.
The steamship Sea Out, for Baltimore, sailed
for Baltimore on Saturday as advertised.
v CHARLEsroN PATRNTEE.-Though rather late
in the season, We are glad to learn that our enter.
prising fellow Citizen, MIR. I. A. DUO, has obtained
o patent for an ice cream freezer. We are not &C.
qualnted with the advantages Of this freezer, but
hope by next Summer to put it to a practical test,
when we can speak more to the point.
TIE GRANrrEvnLE FAcroRY.-We learn that a
meeting of the Board Of Directors OF the Granite
viii Manufacturing Company was recently held in
this city. at which n. H. Hickman, ESQ.,, OF
Augusta, was unanimously elected President pro
tenn to fill the vacancy ocoasioned by the death of
Mr.. Gregg. The Augusta Constitutionalis speaks
highly CT the business capacities Of this gentleman,
and congratulates the company on their good
fortune in securing the services of one in every
respect fitted for tho position.
CHANGE OF SCHEDULE. Under this head the
Wilmington Post laments the disoontinuance OF
the through train between that city and Augusta,
Georgia; and says: "We are sorry to learn that
such a change 10 contemplated, and feel confident
that 1t will prove detrimental to the interests of all
the roads composing this route, and a great moon
venience to tho travelling public" Tl.. ta.-.-,a.
train referred to above left Wilmington. and pas-
aengers,> without a change Of cars, were carried to
Augusta. This made three trains from Branch
vile to Augusta and was very convenient to pas
sengers travelling on that route, but the patronage
was so small that for some time the trains have
been running at a heavy loss. We noticed one of
these through trains recently which had but throe
passengers on board and were informed that it
was about the usual number. While we deprecato
the suspension Of any Southern. enterprise, We
cannot see how the trains could be continued
under such auspices. @
scoTT's MONTHLY MAGAZINE, for August has
but just reached us. Is there any good reason
why an establishment in Atlanta, styling itself tho
Franklin Printing House. should not be able to
get the August lumber Of their Magazine out
before October AS long as Southern Literature"
travels at such a pace it will not make much head
way in the unequal race with Northern compeli-

LIE POSTAL ARR~ANaEMENTs.--The Columbia

for North and South Carolina, is now in this State
on an official tour, inspecting the mail routes and
post ofaces. Ee states that he finds everything
in excellent working order. aud pays q high compli-
ment to the post Office regulations OF Charleston
We have never heard of DR.. lobe, and did not
know that he was around, but trust that he will
exercise the patience Of the old patriarch Job and
not content himself with a cursory glance, but
ferret out abuses and correct them. There have

lions Of this State, and it is obviously DR.. Jobs's
duty to see II they ire founded on fact, or are
merely the opinions Of outside parties. We hope
that the Doctor will not content himself with COM

will explain to the public, the cause OF the fire.
quent mail failures and endeavor to rectify the
delivery and transmission Of mail matter. The
country subscribers Of the News are frequently de-
prived Of their papers, but the cause is unknown
Dr. lobe has come as a delegate from Head-Quar-
tsrs, and we trust that If he has already left tho
State he will throw a little light on this intricate
subject.
