A PROBABLE HoAX.-It is said that
the reported marriage of George o.
Davenport, Esq, is a hoax. If it is, it
is very silly joke, and it will take a
smarter head than ours to see where
the laugh comes in. The announce
ment was brought to this Office by re.
sponsible party, and published in good
faith. We will be in a state of per,
picking doubt until we hear from
George, whether he is married or no.

Your censure Of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company is justly mer-
tied, and the people Of your city GER
tainly have sufficient cause for feeling
indignant when the favors you have
conferred on the company are consid.
cred in the scale with the treatment you
have received at their hands. You
have given them everything they have
asked for, and it may be said with truth
that no company has been more highly
favored by the authorities Of any city
than that of the Baltimore and Ohio
by yours. What return have you for
your generosity? The changes which
took place this week fully demonstrate
that the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company care little or nothing for the
interests Of your city and that the i'm
provements which were promised by J..
w. Garrett in the erection of new shops,
&c, are extremely doubtful. You are
not alone, however, in complaining OF
your grievances. The company have a
very wide reputation for their success
in discommoding passengers and those
having freight transferred by them.
Complaints are frequently made by
parties along the line of the road for
delays Of freight and very often from
the overbearing manner Of the EN-
ployes Of the company when informa-
ton is sought after by those having
dealings with them. Now, whether
there is cause for these complaints or
not, 1 am not able to say, out judging
from the conduct Of some Of the Off
Gals of the road close at home, think
they are we'll founded. Even the Off
GERS of the little Dinky, the noaccom.
mediation train, which runs up and
down the switch, are 80 dignified that it
is a hard matter some times to get them
to stop at the old station here to let pas.
sengers off and on the train. Some
times they charge at the rate Of fifty
cents per mile for riding on the switch ;
at least they did it in one instance this
week, and by their petty meanness have
lost tentold more than they have made.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
REIpvILLE, September 4.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
The teachers of Spartanburg County have
lust held their second annual convention.
Three days august 2sth, 3Oth and Slst) were
occupied in discussing questions Of special IN
terest to teachers, and in exchanging expe-
rlences in school government and in the best
methods OF teaching the various branches OF
study common to our schools. The question
box constituted one of the most interesting
features OF the convention. This box was
opened at the close of each session, and the
questions which had been quietly deposited
therein by teachers and others, were answer
ed by the members in brief and pointed re-
marks. A serious turn was given to the last
DAYS proceedings by discussing the responsf-
bility OF the teachers Office, Sunday School ad-
dresses, and touching remarks made at the
adoption of suitable resolutions upol the re-
cent death of 8 prominent and efficient mem
ber. All testify to the pleasure and profit de-
rived from these few days of friendly Inter-
course. The generous hospitality. too, of the
GOOD people Of New Prospect will perpetuate
pleasant "reminiscences of our sojourn amongst
them. We have returned to the duties of our
school rooms with deeper impressions of our
RESPONSIBILITIES as teachers, with liveier views
of the Importance of our profession, and en-
riched with new ideas gained by the mutual
interchange of experience. We heartily re-
commend to our sister counties the holding of
