A small colored boy by the name

drowned this morning, about 8
o'clock, at the foot of Ann street. In
company with a companion of about
the same 'age, he entered- a bat

of the Passport as she came by, and
in attempting to push off from a

into the water and was drowned.
Divers and draggers at once got to
work, looking for the body,, and it
was found about 11:30 o'clock, near

FRIDAY, JUNE 27,
The Information Signal.
The yellow penant displayed from
the Orton House to-day is the new
"information signal" of the Signal
Service. The Signal Office has taken
down its flagstaff, preparatory to
moving into the new public building,
hence the display from the Orton
House. This information signal does
1 not indicate a storm for this place,
but that a storm is prevailing at. a
distance, which would be dangerous
to shipping taught in it, and "of
which information may be obtained
by const! ting the Signal.oftlce. ,
This "information" will be elreer
fally leceived here. There have
been many speculations as to the
meaning or tne signal, some conl
tending mat it sigmua mat tne
Signal bureau was afflicted with the
small pox and others contending
that it was chi iken pox, while chol
era, yellow fever and cholera infan
tum were spoken of by a few, with
"baited" breath.
Another Coast "Line Projected.
The Railway World of the current
week has an article that possesses a
great deal of interest for our people.
We have heretofore referred to the
preliminary survey which was-being
made between Charleston and this
city for a new line of railway that it
was proposed to build and have sug
gested that this was probably the
first step in the construction of a
long coast line between Northern
and Southern points. Our conjee,
ture seems to have been correct for
the article we have alluded to say.?
that there is a project 011 fpot to
build a line between Charleston'and
Norfolk, or some other point in , a
corresponding latitude, "that will
shorten the distance by rail bet ween
New York, Charleston and Florida
points to the extent of nearly one
hundred miles and traverse a terri
tory nearer the Atlantic Coast than
any existing railroad, much of which
is either wholly or partially destitute
of needed railway facilities."
The name- of the projected road,
says the Age, will probably be the
Charleston, Wilmington & Norfolk
R. R. Active construction, it says,
will first be commenced on portions
of the route leading Northward fuom
Charleston to Georgetown, because
the immediate requirements for ad
ditional railway facilities 'are more
urgent in that quarter than in more
Northern latitudes. The Carolina
Construction Company has been or
ganized to build the road, with head
quarters in Philadelphia, and some
of the preliminary work has already
been done. ' " -
"The main 'portion, of the. road;"
says the Age, " will extend in anaN
most directJNorthern directi'onfrqm
Gharleston,through North andSouth
Carolina, States whish have, for sunj
dry reasons, received less effective
attention from projectors and con
structors, ia' proportion to , tlieir
area, population, and 'natural re
sources, than any of their sister
commonwealths."
"The main line will probably have
an aggregated length of more - than
300 miles, half of which, or about 150
miles, will, practically open up a
country rich in native resources,
with a breadth varying tfrom 15 to
50 miles, in which there is no exist
ing railway, and which will furnish
for this road a field peculiarly its
own. This territory embraces the
regions tluttfurnish the.onlyvexten
sive rice.pJautations Qyer 'eaUiyated
in the United States; the -soil that
has yielded the main portion of the
justly famed Sea Island cottou; a
large section of the country froiir
which rosin, turpentine and other
naval stores, as well as enormous
quantities of timber and lmiiber,
are obtainable; the natural fields for
the first crop of early vegetables,
most extensive virgin iimoer uis-
districts in the United States. Few
; people realize the magnitude of the 1
'ijnes built and now operated in thf
'country mainly and almost exclusive?
iy as tunoer railways.

ready assumed large proportions. It
is stated that $100,000,000 has been
invested ' in timber' Japds in the
South in the last nine years, and
numerous large and well-equipped
saw mills have taken tjie place cf
the widely scattered country mills
of twenty years ago. The yield of
Southern forests has beeu estimated
at $30,000,000 a year for the next fifty
years, but it may. reach higher iW
ures. The new road will traverse regions
adjacent to theJAtlantie, containing
immense quantities of timber of -several
of the most desirable varieties,
including pitch pine, cypress, juni
per and live oak. A recent estimate
of the Forestry Division of the Na
tional,jAgricultural Bureau states
the forestry area of South Carolina
to be 13,000,000 acres, and of North
Carolina 18,000,000 acres, while the
same report credits Pennsylvania
with onjy 7,000,000 acres and New
york with 8.000,000 acres. ' There are
goods reasons for the belief that a
large portion of the new" road' would
find sustaining-sources of revenue in
the great timber interests it. would
serve, especially us large bodies ot
timber lands will form a portion of
the assets of the projecting com
pany.". Vorerasls.
