THE SOUTHIERN'S SCHBDUL. The Herald and News has marked before that the change schedule made some time ago m the best the Southern had given in a long time. It gives the peol an opportunity to go and get bac The only possible objection whi could be urged to it by any one this community is that the morni mail from Columbia and Charlest is delayed a few hours, but this not to be compared to the advanta which this schedule affords the who travel, and that after all shot be the chief purpose in arranging passenger schedule. The conve ience of passengers should not made secondary to the despatch mail from a few points, especial when the mail is delayed so litti Mr. Wellessays that the figures o tained show that the present sche tiles are more satisfactory to t] traveling public. Then why ta or think about changing them? V believe the statement is true and ti schedules have not been in for long enough to be given a fair te or to tell whether or not the kidl which come are well founded. Li them stay on long enough to I tested. Greenville and Columb should certainly favor these sche( tiles, and we can see no reason f< Greenwood to enter a protest. L the present schedules stand.
