TK* following l>aragrAp!i 1* from tho
uw OHarieo
ton fWrirr;
The Colmhia tml Angusta Railroad i»
petitioning the l.< .'ufotm* tor mil, which
it propose* to receive in the shape of a
transfer of aha mo, which the Stole hold*
in the Charlotte and South Carolina
Railroad Cnaipan', amounting at par
value to $312,600. It is said that
$635,009 of tbt ORpitai Stock of the
t'ompanv has alrcadr been received, and
$lO9 900 more is shortlv expected liutn
TjluoHr/ private subscriptions, and that
these sums will be sufficient to complete
the entire graduation of the road, the
masonry and bridging (including an
>-'H bridge across the Conga***', near
Columbia), and furnish the cross ties
ready for the rails. Bat uioaey is needed
to supply the rails, rolling slock, etc ,
hence the petition. There dries not ap
pear to be any reason why it should not
be granted. This road is destined to be
a main link in the great line of travel
between New York and New Orleans,
and as it runs throagh a fine, fertile,
healthy country, will additionally be ad
vantageous to its owners on account of
the local business which will seek it.
Nearly ail the embankmeuts have been
in ide, more than three fourths of the
graduation between Columbia ami (Ir.iti
neville is finished, the masonry of the
bridge over the Congaree will be finished
ear’y next month, and if the aid sought
lruiu tne State shall be given, track-lay*
ing will commence itt March, and the
road be completed to its terminus in the
course of twelve mouths.

A BILL
To lie entitled an Act to define the lia

He it Enacted, That whenever any
resident of this State shall he indebted
for auy person hitherto held in slavery,
whether by bond, bill, note, or open ac
count, it shall be lawful for the debtor to
plead the failure of the consideration by
reason of tbe emancipation of said per
son. And upon due proof made that
the person or persons for whose service
the said liability was incurred, has, in
fact, been emancipated, the verdict shall
be rendered for so much as the service
of said person was worth during the
time he or she continued to be enslaved.
Merchants and business men
wishing to secure Market reports
through the United States and European
News Association, will be promptly
served, on leaving their names (during
the absence of the Agent for a few
days) with Mr. Pughe, at the Daily
Press office, 190 Broad street.
Another Liberal Offer.—Our
friends of the Lottery business really
place us under so many obligations that
we scarcely know how to acknowledge
them all. They seem to think a great
deal of the Daily Press, but that is, of
course, by no means astonishing, as
everybody does that; and whenever they
get a good thing they generally want ns
t ) share it with them. The latest offer
is from the liberal house of T. J. Fur
niss A Cos., who are Agents for “the
Havana Lottery of Kentucky,” and who
propose to allow us, for the m oderate
sum of $lO, to draw a few thousand dol
lars, the only condition being that we
shall show the “greenbacks,” when we
get them (of course), to our friends. And
our prize is to be sent either in t.ie shape
of a draft or in greenbacks as we may
choose. Now, Furniss, we tell you what
to do. Send us, say SIO,OOO, minus the
$lO ; and send it in greenbacks or spe
cie by the Southern Express Company.
Send it pretty quick too. and we shall
put it ou exhibition for an entire week,
delivering a lecture, including the read
ing of your scheme at each lecture, be
sides a ten line puff iu the local column,
every day for a week.
N, B.- As this is “a private and
strictly confidential” affair our readers
are expected not to mention it, as we
don’t want the other papers to get wind
of it and deprive us of the advantages
of this generous offer.
P. S.—An individual putting his hand
into a furnace might get it burnt. The
above offer comes from a Furniss. Our
readers can make the application for
themselves, if there is anv.
