After a brief absence to the metropolis we arc again at our post, with rcneurod elasticity of physique for the wear ami tear of our profession, even if not richer in ideas or woalthy in experience. Charleston is full of bustlu aud enterprise to stranger view, notwithstanding business men complain f dullness in trade. It is also much improved within a few years. New church spires shoot heavenward, while old ones are rejuvenated, and wear j the garish air of lato construction. This speaks j well for th at home life shut out from casual visitors, and slumps a mo al sentiment as prevalent in the ' community. If the remark ho true that the pro- I gross of church architecture indicates a high civilisation, thcu will Charleston take rank w ith the first I ' cities of the land. Another pleasant feature of Charleston is the t increased liotel accommodations, and the improved external appearance of these homes for the wanderer. Among the many establishments of this , kind now entering for public favor, we recognise I none as challenging more liberal patronage than ' the Colder House, (the 01J Planters.') on the j corner of Church and Queen streets, under the lesseeship of Mr. J. \V. Gamblo. The whole structure has been almost rebuilt. While externally its appearance is really beautiful, the i measure ol desire in fulfilled in the rooms, where the i guest's comfort is scrupulously ntteuded to. llut t all is not said: Co to tlio dining room. Thnrst t your legs under the mahogany?scan the bill of fare?(the waiter is always at your elbow)?send ' lor your selection from the delicate cuisine of the i house?and if yon are not more than satisfied with t the variety and style of getting up?why you are the most innpprccinling biped that ever dined on fi li, fl >h, or fowl. Hvpcrbole apart, wc m>bi r'.y i a a rt that the Cahlor House is a No. 1 hotel, and i .1. W.

DE ATH OF PRESTON S. BROOKS. Ou Saturday morning last our Tillage was 8glt?. ted with nowa of tho sudden death of lion. P. 8. Brooks. It came by private hands, and was hard* ly credited. Ivitcr in the day the mourning Columbia papers confirmed the sad intelligence, nnd gave the particulars. Though uuWnowu hero, MrBrocks had warm friends in our people, end they hoped for him many years of distinguished position i nt Wnshing'on?wou through b-ight talents and moral heroism. I Tho particulars of his illness and death arc thu* i givtu by telegraph, together with the action of our delegation and Congress on the melancholy erc?t: l Washington, January 28.?Tho death of Mr' ?

His death is thus no- j j ticed by tlmt paper: i T Our city was startled at an early hour yesterday ' r notning by tho publica ioii of n telegraphic dispatch announcing tin- sudden dentil of the Hon. 0 Preston S. Brooks, of Kigcfield, the young, well known, nud popular Representative ii Congress from the foui tli district of this State. The name of Mr. Brooks lias latterly been prom- * incut and in frequent mention, from causes which 1 none regretted more than himself. Actuated and c I--1-1 * -- ?- ?- - 1 ' ijiitl.nvin'U .i-?

" Brooks. Ills heart was large, but had no room j T r?r place for the pretty trickeries and jealousies i t selfish ambition, or coldly plodding cnleulatio' . Mr. Brooks was early brought, hy hi* characteribtie impulses ol duty, into the service of the State, and in the Mexican war displayed, when on the in verge of opening mnnl ond, not only the lofty valor )l( tnd personal daring which marked the ileroted voluntei rs of the l'almetto Regiment, but the higher qualities of the officer. 1 liscontieelion with that memorable campaign lends additional value and mmortalizing virtue to a name cation zed hy the Fatal devotion and chivulrie utterances of a younger la iirother, the boy-hero, Wlutefield .Brooks. Both |M died too boon lor their State and country, and the i present visitation, coining on us without foreahnd- ' * wings or tokens, and startling us like thunder Ci From a cloudless sky, shocks us even more rudely than the tidings borne from the haltle field. In tp peace, even, we are called on lo sutler and experi- ,. snoe in particular instances what has been described ;ut the saddest characteristic of w..r?the elder ct 'ollows the bier of the youth, and the father casts el tlie tributary sod on the grave of the son. In this |{ rase we mourn over the removal from the honored tud well-occupied post ol Slftto service one of he youngest, most promisiug and noblest of cilitens thus trusted and stationed. A visitation so sadly startling speaks a lesson he- st ond the first irrepressible outburst of sorrow, ami J | ^ k ids another instance to many that have been given ; it our Federal Capitol, of the comparative iiisigui- j n< icance of the issues and interests, and struggles, | to vhiclt too often and ton Iarg< ly ktigt' ss us. Here sa less oi which feelingly and forcibly rebukes the alter spirit of strile, and malignant invective, that 0-1 ivould dehght in widening tlio breach between w irelhreu an<l friends?it is a lesson wliieh we tiusl \\ vill nut puss uiilu'cded, but will be deeply pondered, fJ md seriously applied, by all parties and classes. 'fins startling visitation falls with more scathing j r lirectnees, of course, <>n those who arc called to . tli anient n nearly related friend and protector, but llt uto such a circle of mourning we cannot intrusively ^ :nt<r.
