DESTRUCTIVE TORNADO. "A violent
storm of wind aud rain passed over the
Eastern side of this County on Thursday
morning last. little after sunrise. In
the neighborhood of Breazeale's Mill the
work of destruction began, and the
greatest fury seemed concentrated mile
or two beyond. in the direction OF Bel
ton. The residence and out.buildings
OF Mr.. Robert G. Keys we're blown down
and the family barely escaped with their
lives. one or two members Of his house
hold being seriously injured. Every
thing was torn literally to pieces, even to
the clothing upon their persons. Other
houses in the path of the tornado were
violently hurled to the ground, and an
immense amount Of timber and fencing
was blown down. The track Of the hur-
ricnne was only fcw hundred yards
wide, and it was most destructive in the
locality mentioned, which is seven or
eight miles East of this town. It ap-
pears miraculous that no lives were lost,

DISPOSITION OF THE ARaIY.-It is said
that application has been made to army
headquarters for additional troops in
Arizona, but General Sherman replies
that the reduction of the army by Con-
gress has been 80 fully carried out that,
added to the constant demand for troops
in the Southern States, he is not only
unable to furnish moro troops for tho
frontier, hut is compelled to take troops
from that section to send South.
What nonsense! This simply means,
the Indians may scalp and butcher to
their hearts content the inhabitants of
the West. Their lives are nothing COM
pared with due. attention to the inte-
rests of Grant and the Radical party in
the peaceful States. Will anybody tell
us to what good use the several thousand
troops now in Georgia have been put in
the last two years?, What is the need of
them? What has become Of the grand
srmy Of infantry and cavalry sent into
South Carolina to put, down On ''insur-
rection" some weeks ago? Can any
human being tell as when and where
they fought, whom they have conquered,
how many prisoners they have taken, or
ct anything olso they have done &c earn
their bread? This whole business OF
ending troops South is as absurd as it is
cruel. and every day g experience demon.
strates it to be both.

The DEFEAT OF AMNESTY. That con-
ssrvative Republican journal, the New
York Commercial Advertiser, says Of the
shelved amnesty bill, that though it was
only compromise at the best. it would
have been bettes than nothing, inasmuoh
as it would have convinced the people
of the South that the sentiment of jus
tice was not wholly dead, and that in
time the entire burden under which they
bend might have been removed. The
Commercial says the constituents Of those
members who contributed to the defeat
Of this measure will. be likely to ask
SOME such sharp questions as these: Z
.Why did you block the wheels Of in
dustry and stop the course OF trade?
Why did you prevent the Introduction
Of capital into the South? Why did
you reject the offers Of men who pro-
fessed to be ready and willing to enforce
and obey the laws? Why did you not
give an opportunity to test the sincerity
Of these men2 Why did you pass force
bills and establish rule by the bayonet
in time of reace?f Why was it necessary
W oooFCAt ACpuoAAo@h ,1oA ~ Va 6c-
yernment? What it is to be gained by
the adoption of measures alike oppress-
i've and unconstitutional? And why
should the President be invested with
arbitrary powers? Forty Senators should
be !asked these questions and what an
swer can they glvef"liaa,' si,l ~. 81

it will be bette.} nowi shan next year or

every Southerner is transformed into a

The Charlotte, Columbla and Augusta

Nh. EDITOR: Referring to the commu-
nication signed by the attorneys for the
above company, in your issue of the
25th instant. I beg to say that as late as
the goth instant, contract, under bond
OF 100000, STIMULATING that the main
workshops Of the Columbia and Augusta
Railrond should be located at Augusta,
was on file in the Office OF the Charlotte,
Columbia and Augusta Railroad; and,
further. that in accordance with the
terms of consolidation, the, said .obliga-
ton was assumed by the last named
company.
In tho communication referred to
above, it is stated that no bond has been
given for the remopal of the main work.
shops hence to Augusta, but that bond
has been renewed, conditioned for the
location of the principal workshop for
tho road between Columbia and Augusta
in Augusta.
There may be distinction here, but
the difference, 80 far as the interests of
Columbia are concerned, fail to per-
ceive. It is submitted that it would
have been more satisfactory to this COM
munity to have reoeived from the Char
lotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad
Company the assurance that neither the
shops Of that company, nor the working
force employed therein, now ''located"
in Columbia, would be ''located" in Au-
gusta.
And while discussing the interest OF
Columbia, I beg to cali the attention of
all concerned.to q resolution adopted by
tho stockholders at the time OF oonsoli-
dation, and to ask If good faith has been
observed in respect thereto? To make
the inquiry more definite. it is asked, if
1t is not true that the freight OH cotton
over the Charlotte, Columbia md Au-
gusta Railroad from Augusta to New
York is lower than it is from Columbia
to New Yorka The following appended
resolution is the one referred to:
"Resoloed, That due regard and ro.
speot for the interests Of Columbia, the
present terminal point of the two roads,
render it necessary to guarantee that on
nil tariffs Of freight and schedules no
unfair or unjust discrimination shall be
used to the prejudice of Columbia and
her interests" A CITIZEN.

success beyond precedent, and grand
