[FROM OUR OWB CORRESPONDENT.] COLUMBIA., S. C., February 27,- 1869.-The session of tbe Uoneral Assembly is drawing to a closo, and from fifty to sixty bills are ready for a tbird reading. Railroad interests largely predominate iu thu matter of unfinished busi? ness, and members are continually beset with the inquiry, "wheals my railroad coming up ?" The question is generali, answered by a referenoe to tho Speaker of the third House, alias the lobby, Hon. Tim. Hurloy. Tbe lat? ter, though having no clerks, keeps well posted, and smilingly replies, "that's all right, will be wade the spacial order tho first opportunity." Nearly every one of these enterprises now beioro the General Assembly are, at tho pre? sent time, only seeking for ohartors. Suob are those introduced iu the Sonate by Senator Dickson, mundy, the South Carolina Ceutral Railroad Company, wbioh runs from Gourdin's Station, on the Northeastern Railroad, through to Manning, and the Floronco and Lancaster Railroad. Then there is tho Augusta and Man? chester Railroad, and Watoreo and North Caro? lina, also asking charters. Those asking aid are the Chatham Riilroad, only fchrou millions of dollars in endorsed bonds of the State; and tho Union and Spartanburg Riilroad. tho lat? ter, considering its importance, makins a mod? erato and modest roquest of fifteen hundred thou aa ml dollars endorsed b iuds. Tho b ll to enable tho Savannah and Charles? ton Railroad Company to oomplete its road, to tho agreeable surprise of many friends, passed i s second reading in the House unanimously to-day. There was but little debate. Hausier made an admirable speech ia support of the bill, and concluded by offering the following as a substitute for ection 5. which was adopted.: SECTION 5. I ho said railroad company shall deposit the interest oo all the r aforesaid bonds as it becomes due with the Financial Acune of tho State of South Carolina in tho Jity of New York, and shall notify the croditors of the same h\ public advertisement in one newspa? per tn N ;w York, om in Charleston and one in Havannah; and if said company shall fail to pay the interest on its debt within six months after it shall become due, or fail to pav or pro? vide for tho payment of the principal of ?B debt within six mouths after it shall become due. it shall be the duty of tho Ci mptroler Oeneral of the State, und he shall have the power, tc take immediate possession of said road with all its appurtenances, and leave the same to responsible parties who shall nave control thereof until the Goncral Assembly shall hy law provide for the sou lemo it ot tho affairs of said company m the interest cf all its creditors. Tho Governor of tho State is hereby author zed and empowered to appoint two dtreciors to represent tho State in tho di? rection of said ompany.

The bid to provide for tho o d flea t ion of thc Statute Laws ot the State seems hk dy to be tho same bitter bone of contention that charac? terized tho nieasuro at tho ?necia! session.

Some of the Cabinet ru? mor? have ripened iuto almost certainties. There is now no doubt but that Pennsylvania will be represented, perhaps by Mr. George H.
