A Trip TO GreenviIEe.
Dear Ne,os /:

Dear Ne,os:
A few words Of the up-country will
not be unacceptable to your readers.
On Saturday last We boarded the train
at Columbia, and in short time there
after was being rapidly whirled towards
our destination-the city at the foot
OF the mountains. This was our first
trip to Greenville since the war, and as
the train darted along, annihilating dis
tance at about twenty miles an hour,
We mcditated slowly but deliberately
over the changes which have been
wrought within the past fifteen years;
changes which plead cloquently for a
more progressive, liberal and cnlighten-
ed policy in our government, and fore
shadowing the dawn of a better day for
the working men Of this country
AS the iron horse sped its way along, We
could not help from observing the great
changes and improvements which have
been made in the road bed and running
gear Of this line since it has been under
the management of that veteran Of rail
roads, Col. Dodamead When he as.
sumcd control Of it, the Grcenville
railrond was miserable apology for
what it should have been long before
that time. But Col. Dodamead being
full of pluck and energy, and having an
intin ate knowledge Of railroad matters,
las succeeded in raising it from a doubt
iul and n-paying existence, and plac.
ing it upon par with our most pros
porous and paying railroads. He was
liberal in loaning the Company money,
with which to improve their rolling g
stock, and to day road that did not pay
before Col Dodamead took it in charge
make sufficient to meet its expenses,
now pays handsome dividends to stock
holders.
It is now really pleasure to take a
trip to Greenville, and especially is it so
when it falls to ones good luck to be
under the care and charge OF Capt
Isaacs. This e entlcman has grown
gray in the service of the Company and
his fine manly appearance, enhanced
by his courteous and careful attentions
to passengers, conspire to make the
-aYelling public wish that he may con
n~e conductor for twenty years m.re

tea WitiNhe Greenvillc railroad is a sue

OFFICER THOMAS NfCKERsoN SHOT AND
WOUNDED By MRS. SARAH HERITAGE.
About IL :30o'clock, yesterday morn
ing, officer Thomas Nickerson was shot
and severely wounded by Mrs. Sarah
, Heritage, proprietress of the "Dew
Drop Inn" on Liberty steel, T.AtA
Ward. The woman fired four or five
shots from revolver at the officer, and
one OF the balls struck him in tie right
check, near the upper lip, and flattened
against the jaw bone. The other balls
grazed his body, two of them passing
through his clothing, but they inflicted
no injury.
Immediately after the shooting Off
Ger Nlckcrson proceeded to tho Office
of DIR. West, who removed tho ball
and dressed the wound. Officer Nick
erson is now at his residence, No. AIT
E, Fourth street. He is confined to
his bed, but his wound is not regarded
Gs dangerous.
There are contradictory statements
in regard to the origin of the affair.
One is as follows:
Officers Nickerson and King, both off
duty, while out walking, yesterday
morning, stopped into Mrs. Heritage's
saloon. Soon after they entered Mrs.
Heritage came in, and advancing to-
wards officer Nickcrson (againstwhom,
it is said, she entertains an old grudge,)
drew a revolver and fired at him with
the result above stated. Having no
weapon Nickerson started for the door
when he was either struck or kicked
by Bernard Nugent, brother of Mrs.
Heritage. Officer King then took
Nickerson away. This is one account.
Mrs. Heritage says that Nickerson
made insulting proposals to her and
abused her because she would not ao-
cept them. Hence her warlike con-
duct.
During the afternoon Mrs. Heritage
surrendered herself at the police sta
tion, and was released on 81 900 bail
for future hearing. A warrant was
issued for the arrest of Bernard Nu-
gent, and hearing will come off be
fore the Mayor Tomorrow, when the
facts of the ease will probably be
elected.

Respondent victims of the disease often
fancy themselves the prey, in turn, of

Mr.. EDlroR:--Will you permit US as

meet their State taxes of those years on

doned the SUIT against said company for

proposed to return to the peach ship

have given notice that they. are now
ready to settle the claims so long with

propose to deduct from the shippers
about two dollars per car to pay the G. st

should like very much to know who of

say they have their accounts made up

A cable dispatch from London, on Sat.

occurred since the loss of the Atlantic
The steamship Schiller. of the Eagle
Line, Capt John G. thomas, was wreck
ed at ten O'clock on Friday night off the
Sciliy Islands, at the entrance of the
British Channel, and Of the 1856 persons
on board only small number were
known 10 have been sayel. The Schiller
sailed from New York on April 2Sth, for
Hamburg, via Plymouth and Cherbourg
her course being up the English Chan
mel, through the Straits of Dover 10 the
German Ocean. It appears that dense
fog prevailed on Friday night, prevent

and the steamer struck upon the danger
GUS Retarriere Ledges, about q third Of
mile inside Of Bishops Rock. There is
fog-bell at the latter point, but there
appears to have been heavy sea run
ming, which may have prevented its be-
ing heard.
A boat belonging to st. Agnes, the
southernmost of the Scillys, picked up
some of the survivors, who were
swimming with the tide, and landed
them at st. Mary's Island. The Scilly
life boat put of for the wreck, and al
so q lifo boat and steamer from Pen
zance, but in the fearful sea which
ragged on Saturday it was difficult for
small craft to live They succeeded
however up to Saturday night In pick
ing up forty-three persons, together
with nineteen oorpses, some articles of
the cargo and twenty five sacks of the
ships mail. The survivors were taken
to Ponzance and forwarded by rail to
Plymouth. The steamship was at that
time lying breadside on the rocks, un-
der water, her mainmast gone.
The Schiller was manned by crew
OF ia officers and men. She had 141
cabin passengers 100 in the steeragc,
including four infants, making total
OF 1886. A majority of passengers were
of Gcrinan family, a large number be-
ing from New York and MANY from
the West. Among the cabin passen.
gers were the following Pennsylvan-
ians; Mr.. Leo. Weste (saved), Mrs.
Hermine Weste and Miss T. Mann, of
Philadelphia; DR.. +. ]. Keen, of Shen.

END OF THE OYSTER SEAsoN.-The
season for catching oysters expired in
Maryland on Friday last. Last yeal
the catching season did not terminate
until two weeks later, but at the last
session of the Legislature the law was
changed. The present law allows tong
men to catch oysters for home use or
planting purposes from May LIST to
September 1st, but prohibits their sale
even for this purpose, to non residents
of the State. This feature of the oys
ter trade has heretofore been source
OF revenue to our oystermen, and they
Vince under what they regard MS an
unwise prohibition.

To PREVENT CARS JUMPING From
THE TRACK.-To prevent the numer-
Gus accidents to which railroad trains
from the cars jnming the track, it is
proposed apply to cars n kind of shoe,
consisting OF Il clamp-lile arrangement
which is affixed between the wheels of
each truck. This runs about two inches
above the rail, and if anything happens
to throw the wheels from the track the
clamp at once grasps the rails, holds
the car on tho track and brings the
train to II speedy halt. Such shoe
will, it is claimed, prove great saving
OF railroad rolling stock, and will add
one third to the strength of the truck
it being constructed of iron and weigh
ing about 500 pounds. 1t is found by
experiments made with cars provided
with this device that the arrangement
insures perfect security against the
class of accidents it is designed to meet
and it is also estimated that on ac-
count of the additional strength which
such an attachment must necessarily
supply a car must last twice as long,
on an average, with as without it.
