Mr. Fbedkibk Bush, President of the Greenville and Columbia Kail road, has just enclosed a subscription list to Alkxandkr Me-' Bbb, Jr., to obtain subscribers! of stock iu the Telegraph Line, which is now proposed to be established between Colnmbia and this place. The citizens of Greenville once before made a start in the 6atne direction, and the matter failed only on account of the default of the contractors. Now, we trust, the opportunity will not be Tost. We are convinced that it will be in safe bands, and will be good stock, and greatly promote the business prosperity of Greenville. We need not urge onr business men tn their duty in itlie matter; they must all see the great advantage of the enterprise. Mr. McBke and others will, we presume, call en all onr citizens. They should take hold of it promptly and liberally. We heartily wish success to the undertaking. J5gf Our Premium List is left j ring the month {of February, and that the Counties of Pickens and Oconee shall have a fair survey made and their interest properly cared for. Col. Dickinson is a gentle* man of means, and understands Rail Road jng j and that they have means to complete Rntd hv the aid of the flountv intivrtn lions; and I hnp? coon we will hear the iron horse puffing through the Countiee of Pickens epd Oconee, by fhe way of Piokeoa and W el ball a." By a etafeinent in (he Carolina Spartan, we learn likewise that Col. P. P. Dickinson, the contractor fat building the Air Line Railroad, has visited that place last weak, and slated that the road was expected fo be fiolthed to Spatlanburg in twelve months The Spartan states that Col. Cannon is in. wiling bids for cross lies for the road from BparUubprp C. 11. to Rroad River, out this week on aceonnt of space ? Governor Scott's Inaugural and Message. We presented last week our readers with the most material parte of the Message and this week the Inaugural entire of Gov. So>tt. The tone and spirit of these papers are gen erally highly eomm ended by the prese sod persons of all parties in the State. We are pleased to find that the Qovernor has began his new term with snch favorable impressions on the public mind, and trust that the next I wo years will find us afar more united people than we have been, and that the discord and dissatisfaction may be re* moved, and the eausea that prod need them* That impartiality, justice and integril y.may characterise the policy of the Executive throughout. The firet thing to be done, it seems to us, will be to dispense with the armed militia, let them he disbanded, and the agitators and disturbers of the peace will cease their operation*. If troops sre ever wanted to uppree* lawless violence, the regular army of the United States would be the proper instrument. But the Governor ehould not permit Tom, Dick and Harry to come bo. tween him and the President in calling for troops. The purpose in such cast's being, evidently, as in a recent instance in Lau rens, the gratification of private ambition and revenge in retaliation for disorders pro. voked by unprincipled men, for their own purposes. If such men want the crown of martyrdom for stirring up the passions of their fellow citizens, let them wear It If they have to flee from coun'ies that they kave made too hot to hold them, let them go, never to return. All such Crew would benefit the State by leaving it forever. Every enlightend citizen ehould set their face like a flint against all unlawful attempts at redress for threats and injuries, and onlj set strictly in self defence. If the Governor permits jor countenances ignorant squads cf militia to prowl about the conn try, threatening the public peace and firing off their guns by night and by day, and allows such men as Job Crews to virtually assume chief command, the responsibility for violations of the peaoe will be transferred from the ignorant underlings to himself. We are cure the Governor cannot hereafter permit such doings, if he acts in consisteooy with the professions of his Inaugural and Message. We have no less abhorrence for the so ealled Ku Klux outrages, and evsry good man should aid in their suppress sion and punishment. Those who commit acts of violence, unless strictly in self defence, whatever their motives, are in reality tha worst enemies of their State and their race. The Air-Line Railroad. The following interesting statements we get from the correspondence of the Ktovoee Courier. The writer is Jambs E HaOood, Esq. Evidently the company is in earnea|Fifteen thousand hands working between Spartanburg in this State, and Charlotte, in North Carolina, mean business. Tne same number are working on the Georgia side. ' Col. Sage, the chief engineer of the AirLine Railroad has been in this City, together with Col Dickinson, the Contractor of the Air Line Railroad from Atlanta to Charlotte. I understand from these gentlemen, ! that they now have three thousand bunds engaged in the work on the Road. Fifteen thousand hasds are engaged in grading the road between Charlotte and Spartanburg, and a like number on the Georgia side; and that they propose to have the road complet ed from Atlenta to the Georgia line, and from Spartanburg to Charlotte by the let of January, 1872. Col. Sage has promised Ihst he will have a snrvey of the line made from Greenville via New Pickens C. H., snd Wslhalla, to the Georgia line sometime du Ju4n Or* Mid the Court*.

Wobbman and , others vs. Looms C. Bolling, Executrix of t Major Toadxos 0. Bolling, her Into hns- , band, who was Executor of the will of Mr?* , MaBt A. Boiling. The plaintiffs elaimed a t legacy arising under the will, they being t the representatives of thoir deceased mother a daughter of the testatrix. A settlement n was decreed liefore the ordinary in 1868 B which fixed the amount of liability of Maj' j Bulling, for the legacy, at about three thou* sand dollars. Major Bolling sought to psy ( over the money to theguardian of the Plain, g tiffs, all being under age except one or two e The guardian would not receive the money, ? which was Confederate ourrency, and in (, August, 1868, Major Bolling invested it in ? Confederate bonds. His death occurring since, and the suit was brought against bis tl Executrix, to recover the entire smounl of p, the legacy. His honor, after hearing able ii arguments by Messrs. Sullivan A Stokks ti for the plaintiffs, and B. F. Pxbrt for dr. .] fendant, and taking time to consider, con* ct firmed tlie decree of therefetee, sustaining hi the investment, as to the portion which the M guardian refused to receive, but directed tha ni recommittal oi the report, with instructions to a How the pat lice who were ot age at the G time of the investment, their portion of the 9 legacy, inasmuch as there was no proo' j that Major Bollino offered to pay them at p any time, or that they ever declined to receive payment, and there was no necessity r for investing their portion. The Judge di* * reeted also the sealing of these portions of the legacy to one half principal and inter- I est. The Court continued in session till Friday evening, the Judge leaving on Satur- ^ day morning for Anderson, with a view o' 6 going to Columbia on Monday last. His c Honor expects to return ?o Anderson on the 8 21st inet. 1 The docket has been so reduced by this a Extra Term, that hereafter, it is presumed * the business of the Court will always be * concluded during the two weeks regulsr ' term. After a while, it is hoped that one 1 week or lees time may prove sufficient to ' dispose of all the business in Court at Green. * villa at every term, unless there shall be an 8 amount of criminal business beyond present ' expectation. 1 COURT IK rICKENR. I The last November term of ihe Court was 1 an extraordinarv one indeed not for the I < amount or* nature of the bnainess. but for 1 the remarkable faet that there vai not a 1 single prosecution. or indictment given out to the Grand Jury for any offence agaiost the laws of the land, and not a single ease j to try on the Sessions docket. The Judge i opened the Court of Common Pleas on i Wednesday, and then also there was found ] no esse standing for trial, and the term was I closed the same day. If the law had not set i apart two days for the Sessions and compelled the Judge to wait till Wednesday, < Pickens Court might have opened on Mon day and closed on Monday before dinnerWe congratulate the oitisens of Pickens on * the happy state of their County, and hope ' their exemption from vexatious law pro- ' ceedings, criminal and civil, may long con ' tinue, and that many other if not all the Counties may be able soon to report the same condition. The fact speaks well for ( the good order and good conduct of the | Pic-kens people. < I Tbe Late Austin B. Viokers. Our notice of the proceedings of tbe re^ eent extra term of the Conrt having been crowded out of onr columns last week, we \ did not publish the proceedings. , When Judge Oaa, had taken his sent on >] the bench, the first day of the extra term, , (Dec. 1.) and called the court to order, GenW. K. Easlet rose from his seat and called the attention of the court to the lamented deal h of the lute Sheriff Austin B. Vickers ? Esq. Gen. E. paid a high tribute to the 0 worth of the deceased, as a brave and gen* ^ erous man and faithful officer of the law I and offered the following preamble and resolutions : Whereas, It has pleased (he Ore at God ( to take from us by an untimely death, our faithful and efficient- Sheriff; and whereas, the members of the Bar and the officers of ths Court desire to express their appr eciation of his worth and their sense of ihe lots which they and the community have sustained in his death: Retolved, That the County of Greenville has lost, Jn the decease of Sheriff Vickers, an officer of 1 he highest character, and the State an honest, active, intelligent and moit useful citizen. Capt W. E. Eari.e seconded the resolutions, and spoke of the excellent character Which Mr. Vlcxxas had borne as a youth, as 'a soldier, and the faithful manner in which he had diacharg-d the dullea which devolved upon the various positions he had held, Gov.Pkrrt concurred entirely in the remarks of the preceding speakers, and brief. If alluded to ths circumstances which at tended the untimely death of Mr. Viceesa. Judge Oaa, on receiving the resolution, paid a high compliment to the official eonduct of the late Sheriff. Though familiar with various sheriffs offices in Ihe State, he knew noue that seemed to he more eredita bly and properly managed than (hat of 1 Greenville, by the late incumbent, Acifia B. ViCKana. His Honor, out of reaped to the memory of Mi. Vickkrb, adjourned the Court till 10 o'eloek the next day. 1 > Distressing Accident?Child Drowned in Reedy River. A little colorod girl, about 0 years old, ' daughter of Ann Wood, of this plaee, was drowned in Reedy River, on Monday last. The child was walking on a plank over a part of the stream shove the Falls, near Mr. Clink's planing Mill, in company with an older sister, when she fell into the awift current ; the sister tried to save her, and would have been drowned also, bat for the rescu? effected by a colored man, who happened to be near the spot. Beareh was made for the body yesterday and the day of the aeeideot. jt has not yet been recovered. Visit to ills Studio of an Artist.

Greenville enterprise. The Greenville and Columbia R. R. Met*. Editort?I believe it was general- j ly understood that, under the new regime, | this road was to be thoroughly renovated and put in complete working trim, with new engines and all necessary rolling stock ; j freights and fare greatly reduced, Ac. How I far these expectations have been realized, 1 the publio needs not to be tol-1. There is now more delay ;n sending eotlon and other freight forward, occasioned by the want of rolling stock, and more irregularity , the transmission of freights generally, and higher prices charged for it, than ever before known in the history of the road. And but recently one of the most fearful accidents has occurred, by which several lives were lost, which has ever happened on this or any other road in the State. As a single instance of the high tariff of freights, on a ,mall bill of glass ware and confections, recently shipped from Baltimore, by water, via Charleston to Abbeville C II., the con* signee paid $7.92 freight. What per eenl that is on $46.50, (the amount of the bill,) Michael Cassio or some other Florentine counter caster, may figure out. As to the irregularity in the transportation of freights, country produce (some of it perish .ble) shipped from Greenville to Abbeville 0. H on the 28th and 29th of November did not reach Abbeville till the 6'h of December* So much for improvements. But, if $10,000 a piece salary W paid several of the prineipal officers out of the earnings of the road, besides the other current expenses, there may not be much left to pay for nece??ary improvements.
