WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23.
Mr. Chamberlain and the
S. C. R. R?
Hon. P. H. Chamberlain, receiver
of the South Carolina Railway, ap?
pointed ander the recent order of J ad ge
Bond, of the United States Circuit
Court, io the suit of Frederick W.
Bond, arrived in the city yesterday
morning, accompanied by Maj. W. H.
Brawley, of this city, one of the
directors of thc road. To a World
reporter who called on him soon after
his arrival, Mr. Chamberlain said that
be had come down under the order to
take charge of the affairs of the road,
but would remain in the city only a
few days.
He proceeded immediately upon his
arrival to the railway offices, where he
met Colonel Peck, general manager,
and Mr. Averill, the superintendent.
He took formal possession of the ?nices,
affairs and assets of the company, and
issued the following notice to all the
employees of the road, branch roads
and connecting lines, and the same will
be served on the railroads generally,
with which the South Carolina Railway
does business :
"South Carolina Railway Company, T
.'CHARLESTON, S. C., Oct. 16, 18S9. j
"In accordance with an order of the
United States circuit court, of the dis?
trict of South Carolina, I bave this day
taken possession of the property of the
South Carolina Railway.
"All officers and employees will con?
tinue to discearge their duties as here?
tofore jrotil further orders.
*'D. H. CHAMBERLAIN, Receiver.*'
Mr. Chamberlain visited the treas
nrer's office and arranged for the trans?
fer at the close of the business hours
yesterday of all cash on hand from the
railway company to the receiver. In the
auditor's office he gave direction that the
bonds of the employees now mooing
to the company be changed to run to
the receiver. In short, the South
Carolina Railway to all intents abd
purposes, belongs to Mr. Chamber?
lain, and ror tbe present he is president
and board of directors and stockholders
and also the bondholders, merged into
one character.
Mr. Chamberlain said that no changes
would be made at present in the man?
agement of thc road, nor until after a
very careful examination aod considera?
tion of the necessities of the service.
There have been, however, be said,
numerous applications made for appoint?
ments and for employment by the com?
pany, but they bad all been laid aside
to be considered at the proper time.
In regard to the position of the Barn?
well Railroad under the order, since
that matter has come nuder discussion,
he made tbe following reply to a ques?
tion from the reporter :
"The order appointing the receiver
does not require me to take possession
of the property of the Barnwell Rail?
way Company in terms, but the order
requires the Barnwell Railway Com?
pany to show cause on the fourth Mon?
day of November why it should not
deliver its property to the receiver as
pact of the assets and property of the
South Carolina Railway Company."
The reporter stated that it bad been
said that Mr. Chamberlain had no love
for^he state, and tbe city of Charles?
ton; and that this appointment would
afford him a vent for his prejudice.
Mr. Chamberlain replied : "There ts
norning farther from the truth than
that 1 bave ont the most friendly feel- j
i?gs for both the state and ihe city of
Charleston, the citizens and ail their
interests. There is no individual nor j
interest in the state that I would not j
do all in my power to aid in any proper
way.
"My administration of the affairs of I
the South Carolina Railway will be j
constantly guided by the single pur- {
pose of making the road useful to the
state ?cd to the city of Charleston ; to
increase its business, and consequently
its valse to the people of the state aud all
those who are tte creditors, wherever ]
they may be.
"I have no politicsand no prejudices,
nor personal feelings of any kind that
will be allowed to influence ?*e io the j
discharge of my duties as receiver."
Continuing the conversation into j
matters not connected with the road, j
Mr. Chamberlain spoke very kindly of !
a number of the most prominent met) 1
in the city, and very affectionately of;
the city itself. He is looking remarka- j
bly well, and not a day older than he
did ten years aso. He is stopping at j
the Charleston hotel
From ?tfeer parties, who spoke ex- !
eathedra. as it were, it was learned that
the railroad company bad no defiuite j
plan on foot just now, or at least noth- I
ing to give to the public It is thought I
that, had the bondholders entered into i
the arrangement proposed thc old road j
could have strumed to ifs feet. The
gentleman referred to said that the road
was too valuable a piree of property to ;
li? idle under an auctioneer's hammer, ;
but who would t ay it, or what amount j
of roon e v would be necessary to make
the purchase, could not bc stated No j
definite actio? looking towards the pur
chase had yet been made, and probably ;
would not be for sometime yet
Home-Made Soap.
_ i
I have found a way in which I can
make soap while waiting for the tea
kettle to boil for supper. It is very j
easy. Get of a drug<:i>t or grocer ?
pound box of the pulverized lye now j
sold so cheaply a;>d in such convenient
shape. It will cost you fifteen cents, j
It comes in a neat can which can be
t>pc^id with any penknife. Dissolve
ckis lye io three pints of cold water, i
The lye heats the water and you must
wait till this heat passes off before mak?
ing your soap. Melt your grease and
strain through a eheese cloth and weigh
five and a half pounds. As soon as ,
this melted grease is cool enough to j
bear your hand ia, pour grease and lye ?
together and stir thoroughly a few j
minutes and you will see it thicken j
Now pour it into a box cr dripping pan j
lined with greased paper and let it
stand in a v*ar:?? place for twenty-four
hours, then cut into bars. It will be
ready f^r imm?diate use, wilt keep
growing Detter, is clean and thoroughly ;
satisfactory for dishwashing a?d the j
laundry, makes a good suds and is
economical, having eos* yo? only fifteen j
cenis, the price of ynur lye, as tie j
grease was saved at odd times. It can
be made without Sre, as you see it does i
not have to be boiid dr even have boil- j
iug water added Our laundress uses it !
and says '"it is good," and sh.0 j* apt j
i J bc correct.-(?ova ifomefceepttto^'
The 3 C's. Railroad.
A proposition ia now beiog discussed,
says the News and Courier, io offer an
inducement to the management of the
Three C's Road to make Charleston its
Southern terminus. It is understood
that what is needed in the way of the
best inducement is a terminal facility,
that is, sufficient land OD which to build
ware houses and depots. It was stated
yesterday that the gentlemen interested
would purchase an available site on the
Cooper River, not far this side of the
Charleston and Savannah Railway junc?
tion. The land is represented as
being high and dry, so that no piling
will be necessary to make the founda?
tion. The shore line is a bluff, with
from 30 to 36 feet of water to the east.
lt is also said that there is an un?
interrupted channel, of a depth suffi?
cient to float the largest vessels, as far as
the bar.
The gentlemen interested are trying
to induce several of the moneyed men
to make up the amount necessary for
the purpose, $25,000, so as to be able
to present it to tbe company. It is be?
lieved that if such a thing be done by
the capitalists of Charleston there would
be no difficulty in getting the Three
C's line to Charleston io less than six
months.
The following paragraph from the
Springfield, Mass , Republican, would
indicate that the "3 CV will be push?
ed through to completion at an early
date. A. 3 Harris is president of the
construction company, and the informa?
tion, therefore, seems to be reliable
-The 'o C" railroad, of which A. B
Harris, of this city, is chief promoter,
have lately sold ?6,000.000 of their
first mortgage bonds to a ??ew York
and Philadelphia syndicate. About 250
miles of this road are now built, and
the roadbed is constructed for fifty
more. The fuH length of the projected
main Hue, from Charleston, S. C. to
the Ohio river, at Catlettsburg, Ky., is
650 miles. An early completion of this
important Hoe between Cincinnati and
Charleston will doubtless soon be ac?
complished."
The line of the "3 C" is now com?
pleted from Charleston, S. C. to Ruth?
erford, N. C., and 200 miles more have
been put under contract to be completed
within a year. The remainder of the
line to the Ohio river will be built as
fast as arrangements can be made.
From Kentucky paper issue of Oct.
21 inst.-Two of the contractors on the
"3 C's" railroad went up Sandy last
week,, from Catlettsburg, Ky., for the
purpose of putting 500 men to work on
the road at the 'breaks' ofBig Sandy.
Mr. John S. Moore returned from
Rutherfordtoc last Sunday, where he
had been to look after some business
connected with the 3C's. He informs
us that engineers are now engaged in
placing the grading stakes from Ruther?
fords to Marion, preparatory to the
commencement of the work. The
whole distance is under contract and
the contraotors are making arrange?
ments to commence the grading nt once.
The time for the completion of this
work, as stipulated in the contracts, is
six months.
It is understood in railroad cireles
that the Three G's company has money
enough at its command to tiuish the
road to its Western terminus.-Chester
Reporter,
The Newberry Observer, ia behalf
of the public, demands that the rail?
road.* arraoge their escursioo trains for
tbe State fair so that ladies and quiet
decent people wlH not be forced to travel
tn tbe same cars with tbe swearing,
drunken, fighting rowdies who alo^pst
always appear on such occasions. We
second the demand. The matter should
be arranged somehow. If it is not the
fair and the railroads will lose business.
Some abatoefal and disgusting scenes
have offended ail tbe senses of sober
citizens coming ont of Columbia after
tbe closing of State fairs.-Greenville

A SOLID COLOR.
Of merchants, our town has had many
Of fortune, of fame and renown,
But never a combination
Made up of a Brown and a Browo.
i
The aforementioned rare combination has brought together i
a stock of pure, fresh and popular goods, staple and substantial, j
good to eat and good to wear-all of which goods are enhanced ?
O CD C.
in value by the men who are putting them before the public, !
for it gives us pleasure to say
The fam*ly of Brown reaches backwards, j
And is kin to the kings of old time ;
But the climax of fame is accomplished
In this year of our Lord, eighty-aiue.
The climax referred to is the low price at which our goods
are being sold. In SHOES we are running a line of specialties,
and the open-eyed amazement that smites our customers as they
behold our lay-out, is equal to a seventy-five cent show.
And further,
We stand in the end of the asr^P,
A Brown by the side of a Brown,
Ano! libelare to tiii.* town arni tho couutry,
\YVer not seeking gold, but reuowu.
To enable us to lay a foundation for the said lame and re- !
nown, we have put down a solid substratum ol' low prices and !
formed now purposes of honesty and uprightness in the hand-j
ling'of FLOUR, BACON, SUGAR, COFFEE,.'and GROCERIES ol' all
kinds. ;
