Reduction Of FREIGHT.


We are informed that the Greenville and
Columbia Railroad has reduced the rates of
frsight on shipments Of -four from Greenville
to Anderson. The price formerly charged was
s4s per car load of eighty barrels, or sixty
cents per barrel. 1t has been reduced to SS2
for each car load, which is still an extraordi-
nary charge, in our judgement for the service
rendered. and in comparison with rates of
freight on other roads. We suppose, however,
that s'snall favors will be thankfully reserved,
and our merchants may welcome this. ccnces-
sion on the part of the railroad authorities. -.
Is there any prospect Of amicable relations
between the Air Line and GEeenviIle Rail-

City? The former line has been in operation
for many months, snd it is time that arrange.

to and beyond at OF near the crossing, either

action in this matter, and furnish this section

which can be done without much trouble or

. More Immigrants.

On Tuesday evening last eight or ten immi-
grants arrived at this place. The party con-
sists of males and females, all Germans, we
believe, and are quite respectable il appear
ance. They were kindly cared for by oul
citizens, and left for homes already provided
for them in different sections of the County
So far as we are informed, those who have ar
rived heretofore have generally proven sober
and industrious, the only trouble being their
want of knowledge as to our mode Of farming
but time and experience, and little patience
on the part of our people, will soon overcome
this difficulty. With this party are two mar
ried men, with their wives and children, and
it seems to US that men with families are the
most desirable immigrants, as they are more
likely to be contented. There Is room fol
hundreds more.

Ex-Governor James NJ. Harvey has been
elected United States Senator from Kansas, to
fill the unexpired term Of Hon. Alexander
Caldwell, which expires on the Ath of March

seeks to, put down corruption, and establish
integrity among the public men Of Kansas.
Gov. Harvey is native of Virginia, and is
about ferty-one years of age.
The Senatorial contest in Mississippi has re-
sulted in the choice of B. L. Bruce (colored)

Treasurer State of South Carolina

A MODERN Guy FAwKEs IN NEW Or
LEANs.-The New Orleans Times says that
great excitement was created in that city some
days ago by the discovery that large quantity
of powder had been distributed about the floor
of the Senate chamber of the Kellogg legisla-
tive hall, which gave rise to much conjecture,
many supposing that it was an attempt to blow
up the building. The matter, however, was
after the adjournment of the Senate, man
named King was discovered at the entrance of
the chamber with six-pound canister of pow
der, in which he had made small opening in
the top. He was standing at the time over the
canister, and deliberately produced small re-
volver, and said to those who were watching
him that he intended to fire into the can. He
was quickly seized, the pistol taken from him,
and he was taken to the police station and
locked up. He stated that he had been wrong
ed by q certain law enacted several years ago,
whereby be was defrauded of all his property,
and charged city official with making away
with it. He, therefore, holds the State respon-
sible for it, and says he is determined to have
redress or be revenged.

The National Granqe.

From the .Negs and Courier we learn that
Charleston has been unanimously selected by
the delegates from the Cotton States as the next
place of meeting of the National Grange of the
Patrons of Husbandry. The announcement
was received by the Grange with great applause.
Col. Taylor, the master of the State Grange OF
South Carolina, returned thanks for the vote,
and assured the members that no efforts would
be spared by the citizens of Charleston to make
their visit a pleasant one. This pledge will be
redeemed, we are confident, in manner which
will prove the interest which South Carolina
takes in the Patrons of Husbandry. That pow
erful order had its first development in the
West, and rapidly obtained firm foothold in
the South The South and the West are natu-
raj allies, and we welcome the selection OF
Charleston as the place of meeting of the Ma
tional Grange as one more sign that the tie OF
a common interest between the sections grows
stronger and more close.

The SDrinU Elections.

The first general election for the coming
spring will be held in New Hampshire on
Tuesday, 10th of March, which will be followed
by the election in Connecticut on Monday 9th
of April. Both Democrats and Republicans
are preparing for a vigorous contest in these
States, knowing the Importance of having the
moral effect of these opening elections in their
favor. The parties are nearly equally divided
in both States, with New Hampshire now in
the hands of the Republicans and Connecticut
under control of the Democrats.

Our State Exchanges.

The Marion Observer is the title of new
paper, under the control of Fred D Bryant, q
young lawyer of Marion.
The Columbia Daily Union, edited by L.
Cass Carpenter, Esq, with Maj. E. W. Everson
as local editor, renewed its appearance last
week. Its politics are intensely Republican,
but we always know where to find an open,
undisguised foe, whose sentiments are freely
given upon topics of public moment.
The E1ge6eld Advertiser underwent change
of hands last week. Our excellent friend, Mr..
D. R. Durisoe, who has been connected with
the paper for twenty-five years, sold the estab-
lishment to Messrs. John E. Bacon and 7. J.
Adams, to whom we extend hearty greeting
into the quill-driving fraternity. The genial
and witty James T. Bacon will continue as
senior editor, and Mr.. Elijah Reese will have
charge as business manager. This is a strong
team, and the quartette will make the old
Aduertiser more racy and interesting than ever
before. But we feel pang of regret that
Roper Durisoe has left newspaper life, for
which he is 80 we'll fitted by nature and train
ing. His lines will fall in pleasant places,
however, if merit and worth count anything in
these degenerate days.
Rev. Tilman R. Gaines has resumed the pub
lication of the Working Nan, a journal devoted

great cause of immigration. Published at

The Blue RIDGE Railroad.

The petition of the assignees for the sale of
the Blue Ridge Railroad, which has been pend
inc in the United States Court for some time
past, has been decided by Judge Bryan. The
result was announced on Tuesday of last week.
and an order was passed authorizing the as
signees and trustees Jointly to make sale of the
Blue Ridge Railroad, with all its franchises
and property at such time and place as they
may deem advisable. The property intended
to be sold will embrace everything appertain-
ing to the road, and is situated in the States of
South Carolina, Georgia, North Carolina and
Tennessee. The purchaser or purchasers are
at liberty, according to the terms prescribed in
the order, to tender the first mortgage bonds
and coupons in payment of the purchase
money. It was further ordered that all ques-
tions connected with the compensation of the
assignees and the trustees, and of their respec-
tive counsel, be referred to Hon. James Simons,
of Charleston, who shall inquire and report
thereon to the United States Court in thirty
days.
A proposition was made in the Senate last
week Ito adjust certain Indebtedness Of the
State," meaning the Blue Ridge scrip. The
bill authorized an issue of bonds to the amount
of 81, ,797, 1852, to be received by holders of the
revenue bond scrip upon its surrender and In
lieu thereof It created lively discussion
but was finally postponed indefinitely by a vote
of II to 9. There seems to be disposition
among Senators to arrange the valid debt Of
the Blue Ridge Railroad, which amounts te
$6OO,OOO, but the friends and holders of the
scrip are not satisfied unless the entire issue il
taken into consideration. The vote to indef
nitely postpone checks their hopes for this ses
sion, and it is predicted will have an impor
tant bearing upon the general plan of reducing
the volume of the public debt, passed early il
the session. The holders of the Blue Ridge
scrip are said to be influential creditors of tht
State, who will refuse to accept the proposed
settlement of the bonded debt and thereby de-
feat the entire scheme for its reduction. The
General Assembly ought to stand firm in it,
determination to reject any portion of the Blue
Ridge scrip not based upon legitimate claims
and should the bondholders combine to force
an acceptance of spurious demands, the people
of the State will sustain Senators and Repre-
sentatives in refusing any further concession
in this matter.

used as dissuaslve argument against foreign
ers coming here, that there is no labor but the
native labor that can withstand the malaria
and summer sun. How was it during the war? |?
The soldiers of both armies were perfectly
healthy and robust in the malarious sections Of
the State. The Anglo-Saxon can stand greater
yicissitudes of climate than the African. We
saw some Scotchmen, day or two ago, in their
own persons and experience, illustrate the
points We have made. They came into this
State from Canada-one about four years ago,
the other more recently. They were without
means. They engaged as laborers, and saved a
little out of their earnings at the end OF their
engagements. They next rented land, worked
hard and barely held their own. Next their
character for integrity and faithful, unremittiHg
toll having been established, aided by friend
they made judicious purchase of land, partly
on time. Their crop of cotton last year on this
land was about eighteen bales, and good sup
ply of provisions. They have put up COM
Portable residence and other buildings, and
planted out fruit trees, vines, and made good
garden. They are already preparing for the
next crop. They have never been sick, have
never tagged in their work, and have missed
no payments when due. They are esteemed as
good citizens, who have set All excellent exam
pie, and are more than welcome in the COM
munity in which they live. They are men of
integrity and moral worth. Their hands are
hard with toll, but their hearts are true, their
consciences clear, and, we may say, their future
is assured in this State. They came, and
worked for hire. They are now respected pro-
prietors. They disregarded the stories of un-
healthfulness of the climate. They have never
been sick. South Carolina opens her arms to
all such worthy men.-Colum6ia Phosnis.

disbursement of Public Funds:

. Mr.. John B. Cochran, of Anderson, has in
troduced a bill into the House of Representa-
tives, which provides for the disbursement OF
public funds by State and County officials, so
that there shall be no contracts made by these
officers in excess of the amount for which there
has been an appropriation or levy, nor shall
they use money levied and collected for one
fiscal year in payment of debts contracted for
another fiscal year, under penalty of fine and
Imprisonment.

A verv ingenious system of bank robbie

A very ingenious system of bank robbery
has been discovered at Copenhagen. One oi
the telers of the National Bank of that city,
who was specially charged with the counting
and checking of the old notes which were to
be destroyed, managed by clever manipula-
ton to tear out piece of each note in such a
manner that out of the fragments of about ten
notes he made whole one by cumming the
pieces together. These notes he placed be-
tween the others, abstracting genuine note for
the false one substituted. The fraud was dis
covered by accident, and the teller was ar
rested.

Extension of Time.

The bill to extend the time for the payment
of taxes has passed the Legislature, and re-
ceived the signature of the Governor. AS ii
finally passed both Houses, the bill makes it
obligatory upon the Comptroller-General and
the Governor to extend the time, SO as to con-
form practically with the old statute on the
subject, which is about ffty-five days from the
time the books were opened for the collection
of taxes. We understand the Treasurer Of
Anderson County has received instructions to
continue receiving taxes without the penalty
until Saturday, 7th of March, which will afford
an opportunity for every taxpayer to settle
his Indebtedness, who has not already been
through the mill for the present year,
We are informed that it is probable the
General Assembly will make the levy for the
coming year before this session closes, which
would obviate any Of this foolishness Of at
tempting to collect the taxes, Or pretending to
do so, within g. few weeks. Let the people
know in advance the amount needed for anoth-
er year, and that the books will be opened for
its collection at the regular time, beyond any
reasonable doubt. This will give the officers
ample time to prepare their books, and the
Taxpayers will be prepared to meet the de-
mand. They will also be prepared to express
an opinion at the ballot.box as to the fitness of
the Legislators making the levy, if there is
anything wrong in the sum demanded fol; the
expenses of the State government.
