very much inconvenienced by the non-arrival OF

may be restored to the regular passenger train on

We learn that the mails from Charleston are
stopped Mt BranchyIlle, on the South Carolina
Railroad, to wait for the through train from King.

ton. BY this arrangement the passengers who
started OH the same train with the Charleston
mail arrive at their destination, Backvilie, Aiken,
or Mt any points between Branchvllle and Augusta
two or three hours before the mall. The reason
OF this s that there Is no mail agent for the South
Carolina train from Branchvllle to Augusta. One
should be appointed Immediately.

u A correspondent of the n.
Y. Sun, gives further incidents in
the life Of Robert B. Randolph.
the man who tweaked President
Jacksons nose:
Randolph entered the navy at
about the age of sixteen, and had
command of a division on the
quarter deck of the frigate Consti
tutionunder Decatur, in her action
with and capture OF the British
frigate Macedonian. He was also
in the President when that ship
was captured by the Endymion,
and other British vessels, and was
carried a prisoner to London,
where he cowhided a British Off
Ger for using contemptu0us Ian
guage concerning America. A
brother OF his went down with
/ the sloop Wasp, which sunk at
| sea after her hight with a line OF
battle ship, the name Of which es-
capes me. He was less than FIVE
feet ten inches in height, rather
slim, had hair Of light color, in
youth as shown by a miniature
taken at New London soon after
the capture Of the Macedonian; his
nose was slightly Roman, and he
had an eye like an eagle in clear
ness and power of expression. In
his eyes and nose alone were per
ceptible traces of his Indian orr
gin. He leaves a wife and foul
children, one a son.

FROM the Jefferson (Texas) Jimple-
cute of the 14th:
CRoPs.-We are compelled to
say, and sorry to say it, that the
crop prospects id this immediate
section is inferior to any for the
last five years. The weather has
been disastrous throughout the
spring SO far, and in many neigh
borhoods the cotton is dying from
so much cold. Corn is generally
very small, and the season is one
month behind. However, Texas
is a great country for coming out
right in the end, and we may yet
make plenty.
