Tb >ro was a general changing of Bched * on thc railroads in South Carolina on mday last. The North-bound morning .songer train on tho Air line now passes neca City about ll o'clock, and os tho wn passenger on tho Columbia & Green le road leaves Walhalla nearly two hours flier than before, there is, of course, no anection at 8cneca with the train from At da, though connection is made with tho in going to Atlanta. Tho up passenger the C. & Q. also fails to connect at Seneca th the West-bound train on the Air Line, r ?chedulo on tho South Carolina road P also been changed so as to connect at ^lumbiu with tho passenger trains on the I <t O. road, which leave that place abo Jt ) hour and a half later In the morning and "ve some two houis earlier in the after ton. The great inconveniences occasioned to ? citizens of this section by these changes apparent lo all, and we sincerely hopo e present schedules will not be of long ?Kling. Wo do not know what has in !-ed tho change, and cannot soc wherein e public are accommodated or the rail ads benefited, except tho South Carolina ad. Breaking tho connection at Seneca 'll certainly cause less travel on thc C. ?fe . and the delay of mails to and from At fita ls very annoying. Tho mail from tho ?? l?art of the State arrives two hours w in tho afternoon, and at a most incon nient hour for our business men. Hie a schedule suited every ono in this section ><1 Inconvenienced none of any other sec >u on any of tho roads mentioned, but as stands now all cections are Inconvenienced :<*pt those on tho South Carolina road, and seems, to us the advantages gained thcro 0 not safneient to justify thedisadvan B?8 occAcioncd elsewhere. We sincerely >Po the old rcbednlo will soon bc restored. Under the new schcdulo tho down passen 8 08 P SS oWallmlla at Seneca at 8.08, Pendleton 8.43, Anderson 0.24 Green vii c 8.44.
