TELEGRAPH TO GREENVILLE.
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

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

The ease involving questions of greatest e
interest, was that of Jambs J. 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

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.

FOR THIRTY YEARS
HAS that well-known standard, and popular
remedy, PAIN KILLER, manufactured
l?y Perry Divis A 8on, Providence, R. I.,
liceu- before the public, and in that time has
become known in all parts of the world, and
been used by people of all nations.
It remains, to-day, that same good and efficient
remedy. Its wonderful power in relieving
tbe most severe pain has never been equaled,
and it has earned us world-wide popularity
by its intrinsic merit. No curative agent
has bad so wide-spread sale, or given such
universal satisfaction. The various ills for
which the Pain Killer is an unfailing cure,
are too well known to reqoire capitulation in
this advertisement. As an external and internal
medicine, the Pain Killer stands unrivaled.
