If constructed, this road will be of great mutual benefit to Darlington, Bennettsville and Charleston. Darlington has had both connection for many years, it is true, but only over the road of the Atlantic Coast Line. We have been heretofore effectually bottled up by that system, and as a consequence have been compelled t<> pay the highest rates on all freights received and shipped at this point. What we need and need most is rail competition. Make this a compe ting point for two different rail road systems, and we shall soon have great reductions made in the freight rates on merchan dise, cotton and other produce.

A terrific explosion occurred in a mine at Glamorganshire, Wales, on Monday. One hundred and sixty per sons were killed and a large number were injured. There is a movement among the business men of Kansas to have the prohibition laws of that State repeat ed, alleging that such laws seriously injure business. A disastrous conflagration occurred in Cincinnati, Ohio, on Tuesday, in the clothing house of Sternmeyer & Co. The loss is estimated at $800,000. The insurance is $250,000. A house was destroyed by tire near Coosaw, Beaufort County, on Satur day night. It was occupied by a col ored man named Gibson, who, togeth er with his wife and child, was burn ed to death. Sumner County, Tennessee, is now afflicted by an epidemic of the s|>otted fever or malignant meningetis. There have been several deaths. Those who take it live only a short time, some dying in twenty four hours. Some idea of the amount of plates kept by the Methodist Book Concern in New York may be formed from the fact that the agents have just sold for old metal over eighty tons of old plates and type. A fire destroyed a building in the business portion of Birtningham, Ala bama, on Sunday. The total loss is over $60,000.
