COTTON MARKET.

There has been litt'le' doing in this
market for the past week and quota

Acildeit on the Rail Road.
As the downward train of the Wil
mington and Manchester cars were
proceeding from the head of the road
this morning, at about 3 o'clock they
ran over and instantly killed two negro
men, the property of Gen. S. R. CHAND
LER, who were lying on the track, asleep
it is supposed. A Coroners inquest
has been called, but up to the time of'
going to-press the verdict has not been
rendered.
The Weather and Crops.
An abundance of rain has put, us in
a good humor with the weather, and
given great cause of rejoicing. A
month ago the most sanguine of us es
timated the probable yield of the pres
cut grain crop of Sumter at not More
than half what it was last year, the
oat and wheat fields were being thrown
out as not worth cutting, and scarcity
stared us in the fhce, but the recent
showers have done wonders for corn
and we doubt it' the loss throughout
the District will amount to a quarter
of a crop; cotton also is looking very
well, except that it is generally back
ward on account of the late Spring.
A privato letter from the neighboring
District of Williamsburg says: "of'
rain we have had several delightful
showers, which I am told were general,
and productive of great benefit to
vegetation."

We extract thie following from an
firticlo on the enterprise-and prospects
of Charleston in the W1ashingtan Ro
Public of July 21st ;
It' Georgia be the Empire State of
the South, Charleston is the B-ostor of
that section; She ha recentlf comple
ted her arrangements for a railroad to
Cincinniti upon a line of survey only
631 miles in fength. She will also
connect with Louisville by d line of
600 miles. The shortest Biltimore
line with Cincinnati is, we believe, 630
miles. Charleston will thus attract a
large proportion. of the piovisions and
mnaniufactures of the Ohio valley, and
in the neit war *e shall have regi:
ments of Illinois; Ohio, nnd Indiana
volunteers coming down to defend the
outlet of thtiir trade at Charlestoi; as
their fathers did New O'rleans; and
when abolitionists come to set free the
negroes who wear the goods, eat the
bacon, and work the mules of the'
North west, the volhmte'ers will rise up
and aid in their expulsion, upon the
plaiijest and most inevitable reason
because it will be- their interest to- do
so.
We tiote, moreover, that i piW is
on foot to make a rail road coastwise
from Charleston to Savannah. and the
latter citf will place herself directly ifl
the line of communicatitm with the
Gulf and the Pacific by a rail road to
Pensacola. Charleston has thus secur
ed access to the Gulf-the Central Mis
sissipp-i at Meinphis and the great
ment-house and meat-tub of the Union
-the Ohio il6y. We have observ
ed, moreover, that a contract has been

Orleans and Opelousas rail road.
Thiere are other evidences of ind ustrial
prosperity whicli account in our
mind for the prdfound quiet of South
Carolina, and conviace us that she is
organizing a practical power that will
rely upon itself for protection, and that
