Sup)erintendent Dodson, of the Rich m1on10d and Danvilie, has made the fol lowing am., Inceirent of changes of schedule on his road. to take place onl t.lst. As will i.e seen, the *can ,:on ball" wiii be taken off' between Colunibia and Newberry after that date-: "Columbia and Greenville train No. 11 will leave (oltunbia at 11:10 a i. This train will pull Asheville traiu No. 13 t o A l5ton. ('olumbia and Grc-riuville train No. i2 will arrive at 3.501 p. M., pulling Asheviile train No. 14 from Alston to Commbio. "Train No. 11 will connect at New berry with train No. 15, for Greenville, via Laurens. "Train No. 16 from Greenville to Newberry, via Laurens, will connect with train No. 12 at Newberry, giving a daily train over both lines between lolunibia and Greenville. "The sleeping car service between Charleston and Cincinnati will be dis continued, and the Asheville train will arrive at 3:50 p. m., connecting with C. C. and A. train No. 12 for Charlotte and points North of Columbia. These trains will also connect at Charlotte with the local trains north of Charlotte, and also with the veqtibule train. "Trains Nos. 7 and 8, between Co lumbia and Newberry, and trains 17 and 18, between Newberry and Ander son will be discontinued. "The discontinuance of these trains is rendered necessary on account of the dull business, which does not enable them to make ruhning expenses. The extreme depression in financial affairs all over our country has affected rail roads very seriously and our only hope for future success is to bridge over the chasm as best we can, giving the best service circumstances will warrant un til the condition of the country im proves. We are doing absolutely nothing, either in treight or passenger business. For the month of January our passenger earnings on the Colum bia and Greenville division has fallen off about 30 per cent. This, I presume, is the case on most all of the roads in the State, and, of course, we are to make the best we can of our position in this matter. I hope that when the business will warrant we will- be able to increase our passenger service on the Greenville and Columbia division as heretofore." ON THE COAST LINE. On the 31st tbe Coast Line will also ake some important changes. The train for Wadesboro will be discon tinued between this city and Sumter, and the 5:35 p. m. train from this city will in -ke all northern connections at Sumter. Trains-Nos. 48 and 49-the former arriving here from Charleston at 9:20 p. m., and the former leaving here at 7:10 a. ua., will also be discon tinued.-The State, 24th. This is a return to the old schedule only it does not give-us the old Lau ren's train to Columbia in the morning. It is a discontinuance of the Anderson train and the early train from Colum b;a via Laurens. We will have a train from Greenville to Newberry via Lau rens each day and return. We will miss these early trains to the up-coun try and from Columbia, and hope it will not be long before the business will warrant the road in putting them on again. Not Yet. Having not yet been forced to the wall, although I .had .. rough road to travel, I am still at the old stand with a full line of Furniture, which I will sell on small Monthly or Weekly Pay ments.

M. J. Epting, and succeeded by an earnest prayer from Rev. J. A. Slig. A magnificent dinner followed, which was v-ery much ernjoyed. The afternoon was sp'ent in social conver sation, listening to some music, and participating in several innocent games. The day passed away most pleasantly, and is one that will long be remembered.

CONGRESSMAN JOHNSTONE Makes His Maiden Speech-It is Well Re ceived. WASHINGTON, January 19.-One of the features of the proceediugs in the House of Representatives to-day was the iaiden speech of Congressman Johistone, of South Carolina. It was during the consideration of the report o[ the comminhittee ou printing, which recoiiended an entire change in the system of distributing public doeu ments. When Mr. Johnstone arose to ad dress the House he was at tice recog nized as a new member, and his asso ciates gatbered around him to "size him up," to use a popular expression. It did not take them long t > discove. that the new member from South Caro lina had studied his subject thoroughly and was well supplied with natural talents as a debater. His voice is strong enough to be distincly heard in all parts of the chamber; his gestures are easy and graceful and his command of language is admirable. He attacked the report at several points and showed to the satisfaction of a large majority of his associates that the proposed changes in the system of printing and distributing public docu ments would not only embarrass mem bers of the House, and discriminate in favor of Senators, but it would create a new Federal office to be filled by ap pointment of the President, and con firmed by the Senate. He also attacked a proposition to appoint an editor to revise the copy which is printed in the Congressional Record. So convincing was his argument that the report was laid upon the table by an overwhel mingly large vote. Thus Mr. John stone not only distinguished himself as a debater, but he scored a decided victory in is first Parliamentary batttle.-Special to the News and Cou rier. Frank E. Block, the manufacturer of Crackers, &c., Atlanta, says Liberty Mills Patent Flour is as good as he ever used. Sold at Mower's. tf. They Squelched It. The servant's house at Dr. W. E. Pelham's was discovered on fire on Monday at 4.30 p. m. A dense smoke was coming out of the roof and the fire appeared to be quite serious, as the house was not more than twenty feet from the residence. it happened that Dr. Pelham was at home celebrating the birthday of his youngest son, and he soon had the garden hose attached to the force pump. Mr. H. H. Kinard was pruning Dr. Pelham's roses and Dr. W. G. Houseal had stopped to chat with him. They went to work with buckets and the pump. Mr. D. B. Wheeler and also several colored men came up and ass!-ted the three ama teur firemen in extinguishing the flames. The damages were small. The cook had left a "fat" pine box on the hearth. It had ignited from a few coals in the fireplace and set the mintelpiece on fire. Special Notice. All persons indebted to me will please call and make satisfactory set;lement of their accounts. I have a number of accounts and notes that should have been paid from one to five years ago, and they must be paid now. To all such debtors I give special notice. Respectfully, tf S. B. JoNES. Another Killing. Henry Wilson, a colored boy on Mr. J. G. Norris' place, accidentaily shot and killed his step-sister Lizzie Kinard on last Saturday afternoon. ,Lizzie was very much afraid of a ca'n and Henry had frightened her before with one. He was standing in one door with the gun and pointing it to wards the other. Lizzie, who was in the rear of the house was told that Henry had thegun. She immediately became frightened and ran towards the other end of the house. As she passed in front of Henry the gun was dis charged, the load taking effect in the girl's side. She died from the (ifects of the wonid on Sunday and Coroner Buist held an inquest. The verdict was ac ciental killing. Henry was, however, committeed to jail. EOBERTSON'S COMP.

A carload left about the 15th of tlis miontli and on Monday night there were atout 100 or imiore at( Chappells to go with a carload that was bookedl to leave that night. But there was a misunderstand ing sonie way about this trip. The coaches that were left there for thei were taken toColuitbia and we were told hy Mr. loit. W. Hunt, passenger agent for the It. & 1). railroad that he would not take any more at this time as many of them w?re under contract. Some of the negroes said, however, th.e train would leave this, Wednesday, night. Those who have left heretofore will not say who is getting them to go nor when they are to leave. Taking hands away at this time in manv cases works great hardship. We were~told of several farmers in this sec tion who had contracted for the year, but who were left without any hands at all. One farmer with 9 mules had employed his second set of hauds for this year and made arrangements for the Making of the crop. On Monday he did not have a hand on his place. What has become of the force and effect of the law passed by the recent Legislature requiring amigrant agents to procure a license? The law is short and for the benefit of our readers in this section of the county we append it hereto. THE "LATE ACT." Sec. 1. That from and after the ap proval of this Act, no person shall carry on the business of an emigraot agent in this State without having first ob tained a license therefor from zbe State treasurer. See. 2. That the tern "emigrant agent" contemplated in this act, shall be construed to mean any person en gaged in hiring laborers or soliciting emigrants in this State to be employed beyond the limits of the same. See. ;3. That any person shall be en titled to a license, which shall be good for one year, upon payment into the State treasury for the ise of the State, the same of 91,00) in each county in which he operates or solicits emigrants, for each year so engaged. Sec. 4.' That any person doing the business of an emigrant agent without having first obtained such license, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon conviction shall be punished by fine, not less than $500, and not more th- n $5,000, or may be imprisoned in the county jail riot less than four months, or confined in the State prison at hard labor not exceeding two years, for each and every o'lense within thediscretion of the court.

Moorman, formerly of our town, but now librarian of the Supreme Court, Columbia, S. C., has been selected by Judge Maher to assist him in the codification of the Statutes. Or rather Mr. Moorman has been as signed by Judge Maher, as his part of the work to the annotation of the code. This is a very imp)ortanlt work and is a high compliment paid by Judge Maher to Mr. Moorman's ability. It is acom pliment worthily bestowed. We feel sure Mr. Moorman will do the work thoroughly and well, and Judge Maher could scarce have made a better selec tion. Newberr:y men always get there. _ The I. W.
