terms. The case is q different one
from what we had supposed, and We
arc ofopinion most decidedly that tile
Act injimposing restraints in charges
specideallybaccording to, weight and
measurements hhd, in certain contelh-
platlon 'tholarticles whivl, belonged to
tlie separator classes, and no construc.
tion can be admissible which would
dissolve the controlling appointments
OF the Act itsclfin permitting q shifting
classification to defeat the very intcn-
ton Of the Act.
Our contemporary satisfactorily cx-
plains its position in tho matter
referred to above, aud VIC give its
article in full. Our remarks were
somewhat sharp perhaps, but were not
Intended to be discourteous. They
were evoked by tho failure of the
Register to make tho correction de-
sired. Tho reason Of its silence not
being known, tho obvious Inference
was that it had simply decided not to
correct an error by which the contest
between the Railroad and the people
of Winnshoro was placed in wrong
light. We are happy to SEQ all cause
of difference removed. The blame for
the article did not rest with the Regis-
ter, but somewhere else. The Register
well holds that the people of Winns-
boro should not be placed in tho pow
CT of tho Railroads. And tho people
do not intend to be, if they can help
themselves.

QUITE A LIVELY controversy has
sprung up over The question whether
Federal soldiers used brcastplatcs dur
ing the war. A Captain Judson hay
ing recently denied an assertion made
by Gen. Richard Taylor that these
were found OH deceased Fcderals, a
number Of the brcastplates have been
brought to light DO tn in Columbia and
other parts Of this State and in Gcor-
gia. One was found by Lieutenant
Reeves and Private Hammond, of
Company y, 18th S. c. ", and is now
In their possession. Captain Judson,
although he waited till after General
Taylor's death to deny the charge, has
been too hasty. He will have to cat
his words. We SEQ no reason WHY
the wearing Of breastplate in time of
war should be considered disgrace fi,l
now any moro than III the days of
chivalry. If breastplates capable of
protecting the wearcr against balls
could be invented, It would bo the
duty OF government to furnish them
to tho army i'll order to save life. The
trouble is that lightness and efficiency
cannot be combined, md breastplatcs
are failure for that reason. There is
no other sound reason tor discarding
them in war where everything is fair.

Not a Made Up Case"
The Columbia Re0ister says:


The Winnsboro NEWS in a recent
article makes some sharp. if not dis
courteous, reflections on the Reqtster
tor failing to correct an error to which
1t had called our attention. This was
as to the allusion made to the case be-
tween the Charlotte, Columbia and
Augusta RailrOad and the Winnsboro
shippers of cotton, wherein we spoke
oflt as case made up to test the
legality Of certain charges on cotton by
the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta
Railroad, and to which tho Winnsboro
shippers took exception as not war
rantcd by the charter Of the road.
Our contemporary, it seems, denied
tnat IL was made-np case, and re-
qucstcd us to correct the error of our
statement in the premises. We having
failed to comply with this request, our
usually courteous contemporary gives
us piece Of his mind IN pretty round
terms and requests the press of tho
State, which had very generally copied
our article, to correct it. We have
simply to say that, owing to change
IN the selection" department., tho
request OF our contemporary ESCAPED
observation or it would have been I'M
'heutatelv attended to, as we had no
personal reason to exclude correct
statement of the matter, and would
not have excluded the correction if we
had.
We would add that we were authori-
tatlvely Informed Of tho facts as we
stated them, and simply stated the
same as o matter, of interest without the
first personal bias one way or the 9th

THE MOST unpopular executive in
the United States is Governor Roberts,
ofTexas. Hc was Chief Justice of
the State, and was brought in as the
compromise candidate after u heated
contest in the convention between
Hubbard and Throckmorton. The
lawyers, 1t is said, thanked heaven
when he was removed from tho bench.
AS governor he is charged with being
obstinate, narrow-mindcd and fogyish,
and opposed to immigration and
schools. The latest offence is the com.
mutation Of the death sentence of a
ruffian who had committed al out.
ragcous crime. Several counties have
held meetings to express their disgust.
1t might be imagined that the governor
of Texas would have no easy task of
it; but Governor Roberts makes trou-
bic for himself. Fee.
