JUSTICE 10 THE NEaRo-HIs SHOES GIVEN UP.
Whilst some of the radicals are solemnly pro
claiming that law and justice is denied the negroes
in this State, we who know better and are CON
scious of the gross Interpretations on the sub
ject, might laugh at all the Muncharsen tales of
travellers and correspondents Of radical papers,
were it not for the grave consequ following the
false statements. There was an amusing occur
renee the other day, in the Court of Sessions be-
fore Judge Dawkins, at Columbia A negro was
tried for arson, capital offence. The evidence
was strong, but circumstantial; and, In the opin-
ion of the Judge, leaving such doubts as required
so instructed the Jury. The strong
est circumstance that had been testified to was the
track of pair of Shoes found near the house that
was burned, and which fitted the negro, and as to
his ownership, of which there was some, but not
conclusive proof And the negroes life depended
on that part of the testimony. The Judge having
given his learned and humane charge to the jury,
they retired few moments, and brought In q YER
dict of not guilty. The Sheriff, as in duty bound,
told the prisoner he could go free. The negro did
not seem inclined to leave very suddenly, under
this permission, and remained, after being repeat
edly assured of his acquittal; his hesitation puz-
zled the sheriff, but the difficulty was soon solved
by his speaking out loud enough for his Honor and
the whole Court to hear, "Jus gim me back my
shoes, den leave" The sheriff handed him the
shoes sure enough, and he left mid the hughtef Of
all present. it is said, except the Judge. The fun
loving and mischievous wits of the Bar, will, no
doubt, refer to this case in many future encounters
with the Judge when off the Bench. ~

RAILROAD Forwarding DEPARTMENT

This is new feature in the railroad business
that has increased largely since its adoption. For
merly it was conducted by the different merchants
and factors but since the war the railroad authori-
ties determined to transact this branch Of the bust
ness themselves, and established an Office especial
ly for that purpose. Il has proved to be complete
success, and not only increases the revenue OF the
road, but is of great service to the shippers.
A new through freight tariff has been recently
established, which materially reduces the rates !;
and inducements are now offered to merchants and
shippers that have never been equallsd. Freights
are now taken from Charleston to the different
points West and South, communicating with the
different railroads and streams on the route. These
goods are all shipped with the magical letters O. 0.

entailed on the parties making the shipments. -

DIR. SCHENCK'S
PulmOnic Syrun.

This great medicine cured DR.. ]. II. Schenck,
the Proprietor, of Pulmonary Consumption, when
II had assumed its most formidable aspect. and
when speedy death appeared to be inevitable.
His physicians pronounced his case ncurable,
when he commenced the use of this simple but
powerful remedy. His health was restored in q
very short time, and no return of the disease has
been apprehended for all the symptoms quickly
disappeared, and his present weight is more than
two hundred pounds.
Since his recovery. he has devoted his attention
exclusively to the cure Of Consumption, and the
diseases which are usually CONF heated with It
and the cure effected hy his medicines have been
very numerous and truly wonderful Dr. Schcnrh
makes professional visits to several of the larger
cities weekly, where he has large concourse of
patients, and 1t is truly astonishing to see poor
consumptiyes that have to be lifted out of their
carriages and in a few months healthy, robust
persons DIX. SCTIENCK'S PULMONTC SYR-
UP, SEAWEED TONIC, and MANDRAKE
PILLS are generally all required in curing Con-
sumption. Full directions ACCOMPANY each, so
that any one can take them without seeing DR..
Schenck but when it is convenient ii is best to see
him. He gives advice free, but for 4 thorough ex
animation with his Respirometer his fee is three
