Tlie Daily ISTews. TUESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 3, I860. GLORY, HALLELUJAH! THE KINGDOM AM A COMIN'! ?THE NIGHT SIDE OF NATURE." JUBILEE JUBILORUM ? "To this complexion hate ve come at last." The first of January, eighteen hundred and sixty-six, .will ever be remembered by the citizens of Charleston, as the day on which the Goddess of Liberty arrayed her? self m sable garments, and, disguised in Ethiopian min? strel fashion-like a buxom lady of color-promenaded Oar streets, impudently daunting ber skirts in our faces, and, with the hand which erst on Mount Aventino held the manumitting rod pointed backward at the thousands . of black spirits who followed, grinning, in her trail. The "day we celebrate"-wc do not mean Fourth of July, but New Tear's day-was not celebrated by us at all. Poor white trash had no show or say in thc matter, and the "unbleached citizens" had tho thing all their own way. It was a day of jubilee-a JCIIILEE .ICUILO BTJ3?-a one-sided game of chequers, in which thc black : Tficn were nil kings, and the white all privates, except a | few, who,?having gotten into tho enemy's "back line," j deserted their colors, and were crowned as black lings, j A DARK CLOUD. - As there was to bc no ?.-sue nf Tn E DAILI NEWS on !h<: morrow-as we hail, therefore, nothing in particular to . do-as we oro a lcrvent devotee at the shrine of Mor phctlS-WO courted the drowsy god till long after the ? morning cock had forgotten his matutinal crow, then arose, donned our Sunday-go-to-meetlng snit-partook Of a comfortable breakfast, and leisurely sauntering down Meeting-street, stopped at tho Mills House to chat with a friend and enjoy a fragrant cigar, and leaning lazily against the wall, interchanged New Year's greetings with the passers-by, meantime watching the clouds of gracefully curling smoko as they aroso in fantastic wreaths. But lo ! on casting a glance down thc street, we descried in the distance what seemed to be a mam? moth cloud approaching slowly, and heralded, not by flashes of forked and ficry-tongued lightning, nor by tho rumbling of the distant thunder, but by strains of mar? tial music. Nearer and nearer comes the cloud; and now, as thc sun peeps down from his lofty height (per? haps to see the show) nnd making darkness visible, we begin to see that our cloud is not a cloud at ad, but A G HAND PROCESSION OF THE UNBLEACHED. Yes, hero they come, with steady tromp and martial tread. Make way there : get out cf thc wny and let them pass. "Now let the kettlo to thc trumpet spoult-tho trumpet to the ennnonier without-tho cannon to the heavens-tho heavens to the earth;" for-here comes the pxocessio i. Tell me, O generous Muse who doth inspiro tho humble hard, that he may recount in most becoming phrase the deeds of heroes, and point with ready pen the picture of them gallant, marching on to glory. Tell mo who first, who last, came in the glorious cortege that followed the fair, undaunted maid who, afar from her temple on th' Aventine Mount, comes thus disguised into the land o' the old Palmetto. TUE BLACK CAVALIERS. where come those gallant fiery steeds, proudly prancing as the strains of martial music fall upon the ear. Look, where sit those lordly knights, who=e coal-1 black masks fit so closely on their god-like brows. See I there, upon that milk-white steed, a picture, RLACK ox : WHITE, of a chivalrous knight ; and behold that vener? able sire, looking as though the wintry snow had fallen on hie ebony-colored cheek, and left two streaks still lingering there which looked like whiskers. There, our Muse has left us, and, dropping from Homeric clouds, we subside into commonplace, for whiskers will not do for poetry. So AWAY WITH THE MUSE and let ns proceed in plain prose to recount what wo saw. First, "music by tho band:" then tho black knights; the old black gentleman with the white whiskers, and the young black man on an old white horse. Next, the flag, with some evergreen on the top and some ever black in front and behind. SEW BADGES AND BACK-SCRATCHERS. Then comes a long row of darkey civilians, wearing each a badge-but not the old copper badge, which, in the good old times, or perhaps they may prefer the ex? pression bad old times-old master was wont to purchase for their especial behoof, at a price ranging from two dollars and a hah to seven ; but a badge of honor, a small piece of ribbon, which cost little or nothing, and for which they themselves had paid hadsomely. Adorned with these badges, behold them marching gaily. But they stood "not on the order of their going"-being iu discriminaU'ly mixed Dp, without regard to size; tall ! niggers with low hats walked with short niggers with tall ! hats-?ome sported umbrellas, some wanting canes, and j one darkey carried a curiously shaped instrument, that j we could not for the life of us make out to what use it j could be applied, when a friend at hand, more learned ' than ourselves, suggested that it might be a back- I scratcher. COLORED SOCIETY AND COLORED SOCIETIES. We bad n > idea that there were so many colored socie- | tioB among the colored society in Charleston. But live ? and learn.

The gentleman came lurward. recited some lines of puetrv waved the flag, and being, no doubr, nshimed of him? self, .sensibly waived maxing a speech, and went back to thc rear of the platform to resume his scat among the negroes. THE BARBECCE. Thc barbecue was a very i:oml thing for the people who could get near enough to get a bite. Bat six thousand hungry darkies arc a pretty large family to fccd.and many a man broke tho tenth commandment in coveting a piece of ox his neighbor was munching. Wo heard one good old numma (we like thc old name by which, when wc were a lad, wc used to call our old black nurse) remark: "Well, I nobber been to a barber- j cue before, but I don't sec no fun in bein hongry an gittin nuflln but a smell ob de meat cookin." Ker companion replied, "He needer, an' I ain't had nuttin' to eat 6cncc mornin'." But if some got nothing to eat, thoso that did manage to squeeze through the crowd, eat enough to last them for a fortnight. But soon, when the meat had begun to digest, and the speeches had begun not to digest-that ls to say, to grow a little tiresome-tho white leaders saw that it waa time to hold up for a while and let the darkies go home. So the grand procession re-formed, and taking np the lino of march for where tho old gate on the Hace Course used to be, was soon under full head of steam. OFF TUE TRACE. And now they arc off tho track and on tho muddy road; and so arc wc; but weare hungry too, so, whipping up our horse, away wc go. or rather come down th' road, passing vehicles i-f every description, overcrowded with passengciwof every color (but white ), and tue poor old horses looking ari though they would like to make a few expostulate remariai, if, like BALAASI'S ase, they could speak. LAST SCENE OK ALL. Thc last scene of all was-our readers will CXCUM thc expression, which we will explain forthwith-a devil of a ?CCUC. Wo mean that this baud of black and white brothers came into thc quiet streets of our city "making night hideous"-the white brothers snooting off Roman cai.dles (tu an CIM* -trian ftyle), and their Mae!; brethren yelling like thousands of hah'-roasted douions escaped from the infernal regions, whom tito <-i?lu of dre mad? dened. We wore laking a late dinm r as tiny passed our house, and ww wished (Ina Pickwickian -elise) that the noisy darkies would no to-where we flgurstively re? marked thal they might have come from. - EUROPEAN NEWS BY THE CITY OP WASHINGTON ANO JIARATHON. Sir Henry Stork, Slr Edmund Head and Mr. Charles Livingstcni are understood to be the commission of in? quiry for Jamaica. A Fenian na.ned Hallesan, has been convicted and sentenced to seven year*' penal servitude. A letter received at Liverpool, confirms the statement that Stephens is safe in Paris. Tho London Observer says. Napoleon is apprehensive that Maximilian will follow his Empress to Europe, and has prevailed upon the Mexican Minister at Paris to proceed to Mexico and endeavor to persuade Max from i abdicating. He would sail on the lath. The observer I thinks he will not be in time, aud that Max will be in Europe before New Years. The Gazette des Tribunaux says the French Govern? ment has directed the attention of England to the ex? tradition treaty of 1SU3, since the stipulations of this treaty, though duly carried out by France, arc not simi? larly "fulfilled by England. .Vu Austrian imperial decree extends amnesty to all convicted for complicity in the Polish insurrection. A note drawn up by the English Government, pro? posing negotiation or mediatiou between Spain and Chille, has been sent to Paris. The Emperor made several modifications, and the noto was returned to Lon? don, with what effect is unknown. The Spanish Government ls contemplating to placo under thc protection of Spain the negro kingdoms on the African coast, opposite Femando, and proclaim ' religious liberty on that island and the kingdoms in question. The war at the Capo of Good Hope has degenerated 1 into a mere raiding for cattle. 1 It was expected that the Bank of England would raiso 1 the rate of discount to seven per cent. 1 At the sitting of tho court for the trial of thc Fcuians, ' on tho 12th, the entire day was occuppied by O'Donovan, in his address to the jury in his own defence. lie com? menced at the opening of thc court, aud did not desist until after six o'clock in the evening. There was nothing remarkable in his address, a large portion of it being the reading of editorial articles from tho Irish People news paper. Ile insisted that ho had done nothing criminal; asserted that his case had outraged all law, and gave it as his opinion that. Ireland would never be free without . fighting. His bearing was insolent, and when ho re? marked upon thc court his language WAS offensive and saucy. lt is minored tba; th i Governor of Richmond Bride? well hus absconded. !

The Royal Chamber? lain justi.led his coaiuct by precedents. THE JAMAICA RfSUUtECTIOX. "Die draft commission for the appointment of Sir Henry Stork to Jamaica, is published iu the London Gazette. It recites that great disaffection is alleged to have prevailed iu Jamaica, that grievous disturbances had broken out, and that excessive and uulawful severity had Ixion used in their suppression, and whereas it heilig iu-gcut that an impartial inquiry should bc made into the origin, nature, and circuniHtauccH of the said disturbances, and the measures adopted for their suppression, the powers now vested in Governor Eyre are revoked on the ground that it may be advisable that he should be present during the Inquiry, but for the sufficiency of the said inquiry, the powers of Governor should be vested :u some other - person, and Sir H. Stork is accordingly temporarilv ap? pointed Governor of Jamaica. The Times says: "Sir H. Stork, who sails for Jamaica , on Mouday next, will, immediately upon his arrival, as- ' sume the whole government of Jamaica, and Mr. Eyre will be in the position of a Governor on leave. He will be superseded, but not displaced, by Sir H. Stork, who, in fact, does not cease to be Governor of Multa, and whose administration of Jamaica will be essentially pro? visional. Again and again. Sir H. Stork has been called on tn solve some difficulty which was not of his own creation. A great part of his life has been spent in special services. To Governor Eyre himself, such an appointment is the least unfair or humiliating that could have been made, whilu it ought to be satisfactory even tn his accusers." Public meetings continued to be held in various places upon the Jamaica question, but the action of the Government rendered them of little importance. The Credit Mobilier of Paris 1ms contracted for the new Turkish luau of six million pounds sterling. It is to be issued in bonds of ?'JU each, at a price equivalent to about SUI, repayable at par in twenty-one years. I CHINA.
