THE CROSS AND TUE cREscEnT.

The American people are distant, yet most
deeply-intercstcd spectators of the desperate
struggle now i'll progress, between the Mr:-
c0vite and the Turk The vast array of
forces on either side, the character Of the
ccmbatants, the relentless obstinate courage
of the Russian, the fanatic valor Of the
Turk, the complication of interests which
seem destined to involve all Europe I the
strife, and the effect which such / var is
likely to have upon the agricultural and in
dustrial pursuits of this country, are points
which give to this contest deep and ct-
sorbing interest.
And yet, it is q fact that the mass of
Americans are almost wholly without any
definite knowledge of the regions most di-
rectly and primarily concerned in this war.
10 most readers OF our newspapers, the news
from the seat of war is in large degree an
intelligible, from lack of information as to
those people and countries. Moreover, the
demand for this information has developed
the fact that there Is not extant any book
giving what is wanted, In rcliah.c and pop

THE CHANeED ecHEpULE.

AS viii be seen by reference to the sched-
ule of the Greenvillc and Columbia Rail-
road, published elsewhere, the time for the
arrival and departure Of trains has been
greatly altered. This change is made in the
interest of Charleston, and makes the trip
from the up.country to Charleston, or rice
versa, consume only one day. The arrival
of the down train, though early in the
morning, is not Objectionable, but the even
ing train reaches Walhalla, and all points
above Bolton, unreasonably late. BY leav-
ing Charleston ono hour earlier and making
the trip one hour quicker, by running lit
tie faster and shortening the time at sta
tions, this objection could easily be RENE
died, and the schedule made to suit all sec
tions. We hope the railroad authoritie:
will consider the propriety Of so altering
she schedule as to adapt it as far as possible
~ all stations along the line.

The Mayor and City Marshal Both
Before His Honor. -

1t is seldom we are compelled to give
the particulars of an affair in which the
public manifest deeper interest than
the difficulty which terminated yesterday
morning in an open rupture between
Mayor Kelley and City Marshal L. Z.
Deger. There may be some personal
matters which had something to do with
bringing about the result, but of these
we will not make mention, briefly stating
what happened at the time of the difficult
ty:
Yesterday morning about 9 o'clock the
Marshal arrested and confined Mr.. Chas.
Roman in the city Jail. Immediately after
the arrest Mayor Kelley ordered the
Marshal to release the prisoner, and the
Marshal positively refused to do so.
Finding his orders not obeyed. the Mayor
ordered the Marshal to cease performing
the duties of City Marshal. deliver his
badge to one OF the other officers and
consider himself suspended. Tho Marshal
refused tn recognize the order of the
Mayor and continued to act as Marshal.
whereupOn the Mayor ordered the Assist
ant Marshal and policeman to arrest HIM.
The Marshal at first refused to be arrest
ed, and drawing his revolver ordered the
Mayor and officers not to approach him.
Here the Assistant Marshal and policeman
were placed in q doubtful position. not
knowing their exact duly in the matter.
In order to settle the difficulty in the
easiest manner, Mr. MastersOn, the Assls-
tant Marshal. suggested to the Marshal
that he submit to arrest in ord er to pre-
vent further collision, until the disa-
greement between himself and the Mayor
could be investigated. This the Marshal
consented to and allowed himself to be
confined in the city jail, where he re-
