The proceedings of the Bishopville and Sumter Rail Road Conventions, printed at the office of the Sumter Watchman, in pamphlet form, has teen received though the Chairman of the Lancaster delegation, i The Central R R. of South Carolina has now assumed n name nnd place among the projected railroads of South Carolina, ! nnd it* Importance is so striking, that its I success must he regarded as fixed nod certain. By this ror.rf the two great points of commercial interest, Charlotte. N. C., and Charleston, S. C , wili be brought into imniedinte proximity.

Should it turn out thnt the Con j volition think it practicable, and resolves i upon building it, and will make applica lion to the Legislature for that purpose 1 at in next session. It Strikes ?ne, sir, that | our Railroad matters will become nnfori lunataly complicated. We are all advo' cates for internal iuprovements. We want i to see every resource of our chcrieliod !

If ! the good peoj>ie in tfiat section of our Lhallict wisii it, if they think it will pay | them, and improve their section, we aie : perfectly willing they should build it. It i is only so fur as it embarrasses the pros' peel of the ."outh Carolina Central, that i we have one word to say. If the friends ; of thai road will postpotio tbeir appliesj lion for a charter, until session after next 1 of the Legislature, it will all be right, and both roads may gel their charters | and the aid of the State, but one charter ( at a I mo is as much as the Represents ; lives of our section of the State will be | able to push through. We can see no uoccssity for pressing this matter so strenuously, there is am , pie time for action. The friends of the Cade road, can build their road by the time the Cen'ral is done ami start next ' year. Their road we are informed, is not t more than twen y live or thirty miles j long, at fa ft hers I, and runs ovur an al ; most perfectly level plain We Imp", sir ; llial wise counsel will prev.ul, ami that i our people will not precipitate things in tins direction, to an Uldur.utiate x cut, j and defeat ourselves in the great ut d-r'a .king we have in view.
