The South Carolina Central Railroad

1t will be seen by the proceedings which
we publish this morning, that the corpora
tors Of this important company have or
ganized by electing the Hon. E. E. Die kson,
Of Manning, chairman; DE-, H. G. Fox, Of
Oro, Treasurer, and Mr.. H. D. Corbett,

sistipg Of DR.. Fox, Mr.. E. G. Green, and
Mr.. J. H. Feriter, h1ve appointed commits
sioners to open books in New York and in
this State, and other arrangements have
been made to give the enterprise fair and
speedy start.
We have already urged our business men
totake hold of this important railroad, which
will pour into the lap of Charleston the
large and increasing trade Of 8 section
Of country which now does its busi-
ness with Wilmington aud the North.
With road from Sumter to Gourdin's, we
must receive and handle the whole produce
OF Sumter and Clarendon Counties, whose
prosperity, also, will be rapidly developed
by,a cheap railroad communication with
good market and the seaboard. We hope
that the company will receive substantial
help in Charleston.

ANOTHER CHAPTER OF ROBkERIEs OR AT.
TENTS TBEREAf.- If there ever was to be
a time when 1t was ordained that there
should be general misunderstanding as
to what was n1eurs and what was t&Au, we
should feel Inclined to think that we were
now living in that dishonest age. Personal
property has grown to be very uncertain
and g man to-day hardly knows whst he
win have on hand tomorrow. There seems
to be demand for almost anything that
human hands can DO laid on. Ready-made
clothing preferred-hats, caps
boots, shoes, ladies' apparel-all seem to be
eagerly sought after and from present in.
dications, property Of this kind will very
soon be equally divided among the sove
reigns-excepting the lawful owners. Mo-
ney is never passed by-jewelry, silver
ware, and the like, generally picked up
horses and mules are cautiously taken care
of hogs and COWS stand but little show
chickens must t'roost high;" and as fol
saddles and harness, they come under the
head of unstable property. This last if
little joke; mark well the point, and il
you can't see it,, apply to the Dispatch
price Sc a year, invariably in advance
Job printing neatly executed.)
This division of personal property affords
| reporters good harvest, and profit and food
| to the suffering poor "free and ekil ones,'
but it is beginning to be rather serious tc
the parties fret interested. We hardly
| know of any remedy except in the persona
| vigilance of every citizen about his pre-
! mises. Our police corps is an efficient one
but it is taxed beyond its capacity to guarc
| 80 large district. We give below robbie
ries which have not yet been reported:
The premises of Richard Forester Is
| very respectable colored man, living neal
the Medical College,) were forcibly invaded
| fifty chickens of the finest breeds (Which
Forester was famous for raising) stolen
| This is the heaviest chicken robbery vi
have yet reported. .a..-r..a .....
The residence of Mr.. Volaski, on Brool
| avenue and Clay street, was entered on tht
same night and robbed of twenty dollars
worth Of jewelry. Another instance o
entry by means Of false keys, as the doors
were all locked and the windows all shu
when the rob berry was discovered.
Policeman Harrison dispersed band o
chicken thieves who were about to raic
upon Mr.. Newman's chicken-roost, OF
Broad and Foushee streets, on Wednesday
night. He would have captured some O.
them but that they threw piece Of planl
in his face, which retarded the chase.
Some one entered the back alley of Mr.
| F. Thomas, No. 40S Broad street, on Satur
day night, and cut away all the exposed
lead piping about the premises, causing
quite an overflow of water thereabouts.
A burglar attempted an entrance into th'
dwelling-house of Mr.. 8. s. Cottrell, OF
Ross street, on Wednesday night. He sue
ceeded in getting upon the upper bacl
porch, but here made such noise that {
servant was aroused; whereupon he beat {
precipitate retreat. The only thing foune
missing next morning was fve-gallor
demijohn.

robbery. given up most of the money, and

Major CARRIER, of the Virginis Express
Company, sworn, stated that all he knew OF
the affair was from the information received
from Norfolk. He knew Of nothing Of his

suspicious circumstance was the fact that
young King had sent his father package
by express on the day Of the robbery, which
was entered on the way-bill but not on his
entry-book in Norfolk. BE had also sent q
box by mail. ~. s.
No other evidence was taken, and the case
was held over until Monday next, Mr.. King
being bailed in the sum of $500. 4aa,7sc. Il.
James King and John Lucas ,(negroes)

at seventy FIVE dollars from James W. Gill

was continued until to-day. e& E
William Henry (negro), charged with
having in his possession q SET, of, harness
supposed to have been stolen, was called
up, and in the absence of an owner for the
harness he was committed until the property
shall be claimed. 1t can be seen at the

Samuel Mayo was arraigued for assault

in evidence that Mr.. Mayo, who is superin-
tendent at Major Clinton's factory, had or

but gave Mr.. Mayo great deal of his jaw ;
whereupon he used forcible means Of get

The Governor has offered reward of $500

but the messenger reported that Miller's
wife said that Brown was q fool; where.
upon Brown repaired to Miller's house, and
with the muzzle of his gun pointed at Mrs
Miller's head demanded what she had said
She denied having sent any message at oil
when her husband came to the door and
remarked to Brown that his wife was not In
condition to be scared, and he would not
allow it, for he was able to protect her. He
was then within three feet Of his own door
Brown then raised his, gun, and without
further proyocation. shot Miller, who died
from the wound thus inflicted in about an
hour afterwards.
ga warrant was issued for the arrest oi
Brown, but he could not be found by the
officers. 1t is thought he left the county,
