: The Southern railroad is deter
mined, cost what it may, to re-
duce the possibility of collisions
upon its various roads to mini
mum by installing the block sys-
tenn. Already this system is in
operation between Washington
and Atlanta, upon which road very
heavy trains are operated at a
high speed. The road is diyided
into sections or. blocks of one
mile and half in length and
telegraph operator is stationed at
the end Of eehiblock. But one
train at a time is allowed upon a
section, which keeps all trains
approximately a mile and a half
apart, making rear-end or head-on
collisions impossible. Itnot only
requires thousands Of dollars
to install such a system but costs
barrels OF money to operate it.
Some idea of the cost can be form
ed from the fact that the Southern
mas 180 operators stationed be-
tween Greenville and Atlanta.

The United States lead the
world in many things that reflect
honor upon the nation but un-
happily We also lead all others in
certain other things that heap
shame and dishonor upon US.
Prominent among the latter is the
granting of divorces. For every
1000 marriages in this country
there are 612 divorces, while in
France, in spite of the corrupt
state of her society which has al
mo become proverbial, only 18O
divorces are granted. Canada
occupies the place of honor, only
granting four divorces for every
10000 marriages. While South
Carolina must share this dishcnor
along with the forty-odd other
states, yet, thank Heaven, not any
part of the wrong doing can be
laid at her door.

are responsible for the good mar
ket. Toppy fed steers, 1850 to

of the medium weight steers, in
Guiding grass steers, sell at $3. &c
to $3.50, light ones $3. 10 to SO. so.
A train of 103Olb steers from
Karnes City sold at so. 70 Wednes-
day. Proportion of cows is
heavier again this week, and the
big bulk of them sell at $500 to
$2.S5, and demand for them
