Private Kailroads. There are three railroads in this sec tion of the State which are owned and operated by private individuals in the transaction of their business. Of two of these, viz: the road at Chadbourn, in Columbus county, which is owned by Messrs J. II. Chadbourn & Co., of this city, and the road at Bogue, which is owned and operated by Col. II. B. Short, of Lake Waccamaw. Columbus county, we have spoken at length and in detail on several occasions. The third road is from Alma, Rob eson county, to Alfordsvillc, -Robeson county, and is about twelve miles in length. It is called the Alma & Little Rock Railroad, and has been in opera tion about two years. It was built aud is owned by Messrs Wilkinson & Fore, now of this city. It was constructed as a tram road for the transportation oi timber and himber, but after a short time iron rails were put in and an en gine, passeugcr and freight cars added so that it now docs quite a- business in passenger and froight, aside from the particular purpose for which it was built. The owners arc extending the road, by degrees, towards South Caro lina, aud will probably ultimately" strike the Wilmington, Columbia & Augusta railroad. Twelfth Night. The scene of Ibis Shakespearean com edy was laid in Illyria. and the seacoast near it. 'Sebastian and his sister Viola were twins of remarkable resemblance to each other. They were shipwrecked male attire and under the name of.Ca rio, she entered the service of Duke Orsino, with whom she fell ia love But the Duko Juvcd Olivia, who, ou ac count of the death of a brother, had foresworn tho society of men for seven years. Viola, as Ccsario. carries mes- ' sages from the Duke to Olivia, and tho ! latter falls iu lovo with the disguised uic?seugcr, and declares her affection, which Ccsario (Viola) cannot return, being of tho same sex and also in love with the Duko. ' Iu tho meantime her brother. Sebastian, had been rescued by another vessel and was brought to Illy ria. Olivia seeing Sebastian, mistakes him for Cesaria and loads hi in with caresses, which were promptly returned and the two wero married. Viola then makes herself known as the sister of Sebastian, and by her womanly charm, spirit and faithful love, wins the heart of the Duke and on the same day be comes his bride. The foregoing is a very brief synop sis of the leading characters and inci dents in the play which is to be present ed at the Opera House on Wednesday night, tho 30th inst. in which Modjeska assumes the role of Viola. She will be supported by an excellent company and we hope that a house crowded to reple tion may greet this gi I ted woman in one of Shakespeare' greatest comedies.

Attempted Robbery, A little alter 4 toVlock j yesterday morning some thief attempted to steal an overcoat from the residence of Police Officer Samuel Howland. on Seventh, between Princess and Chestnut streets. Officer Howland had juat come off duty and laid down for a nap. his overcoat hanging upon the back of a chair, near one of the windows, lie heard some one come on the piazza and soon after heard one ot the windows raised. It was soon lowered, but in a few moi menu it was raised again and a stick put under it to hold it up. In the mean time Mr. Rowland had gotten his pistol ready, and pretty soon he saw a stick reaching out for the overcoat and fas ten into tho collar- when he jumped up and the would-be thief dropped the stick and ran, pursued by two shots from tho "officer's revolver, which. however, had no further effect than to hasten the scoundrel's speed.
