ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO TIE NEws.l

COLUMBIA, Wednesday, feofuary <I'
The railroad committee to-day submitted
report granting 70 the GreenVille Railroad guar
antee by the State Of one million six hundred
thousand dollars for repairs, and ten thousand
dollars for every mile Of new ROAD oailt. IL Is
fearsd that the bills to protect the credit OF the
State have merely been used to sandwich JOBS
through. The negotiations to sell out the Green
vile Railroad to the South Carolina Railroad have
failed.
The house has adopted the report Of i.s COM
mittee appropriating ninety thousand dollars Tor
fitting up their hall. 1t was said on the floor that
certain parties will make forty thousand dollars
by this job.
Thets is some probability that the Greenvllle
Railroad bill will pass; but Governor Scot., in
conversation, declares he will stick at nothing to
defeat all bills which, for any purpose, increase
the State debt.
The bill to relieve Charleston OF her railroad
debt looks promising; but, if passed, requires
ratification by the popuia. vote.
There Is good reason to believe that the Senate
will reject the bill re.estabishing tie usur7 laws.
Hollingshead, in Columbia, has been elected TO
the Senate by 735 majority over all opponents.
