A Post-Gkfjcr without a Mail.? v
A post-offiee is about to be established 1
M Liberty, to supply the wants of a largo t
jand intelligent community, yet the post a
j-oute is so arranged now as to defeat the c
ends of its establishment. A weekly :\
mail jeomes up from Augusta everyib
Tuesday by way of Liberty, with an e
empty bag, and returns on the same day ; d
by way of the Dorn Mine with the saiuej
empty bag. And the consequence is n
that nobody is benefitted. Now let the; r
day be changed to "Wednesday for the >
> return of the mail, either by way of I n
Liberty or the Mine, and the Abbeville s
paper.s and other important mail matter, o
would receive prompt distribution. As
the matter stands now, the carrying of
the mail by that route is a mere farce.'v

force of workmen lias been emploved, U
and Mr. Bequest expects to get into his n

An Outrage. ? Konie evil-disposed !
persons attempted on Thursday last to
throw the G. <S: C. lip-passenger train oft" 3
the track, by placing a couple of bars of o
iron across the rails near the Dead-fall,' ?
below Hodges. Some damage was done! c
to the engine and to the track, but the s
passenger train received no injury. The; s
:> company should follow the example of a
the express companies, and offer a good 1
reward for tho guilty parties. This it
ivould likely secure their arrest.
| The promptness of English justice is c
well illustrated in the conviction of t
' Col. Valentine Jiaker, a distinguished ;s
officer of the army, for makyig an im- c
proper assault on a young lady in a rail- I
: road car, and his sentence to six months I
_ in jail. Quite a contrast to the law's
delay in this country. \
Our townsman Mr. Wm. Moore, is j
now painting the Upper Long Caneji
church, and as he always does, is getting (
off a good job. He knows how to handle

surance men here say that the forei

:
Vliy the thing is absurd on the face
;. To carry policies aggregating

7,500, that is, if the person insured

twouldbean additional pretnlum

thatevei. if Mr. Johnson did carry
.remendous amount of insurance lie
iot take out the policies ail at one

them. His history shows that he
