S. I.). Thoy gavo ns a very handsome serenade, and played several pieces; among thom one of oar favoriteB : "Como where my Love lies Dreaming," which oxcrcised ita potent charm on the very devils in our third story, who for a space laid by their "sticks." Wo feel under great obligation to the- 6th Band, and will say, what wo have said bo fore, that Charleston has never had tho good for tune of having a finer band than this. CHARLESTON DIRECTOIIY.-Tho enterprising young gentlemen who undertook, some time ago, the publication of a City Directory, we are pleased to know have finally succeeded in their dosiga.

REDUCTION OF FARE TO NEW YOBK_It haB been a source of grnat satisfaction to our citizens to notice that Messrs. WILLIS & CHISOLM and RAVE NKL& Co., Agents for New York stoamere, have reduced the rate for carrying passengers to New York, and the freight rates have also been some what modified. Pablio opinion has for some time past seen the necessity for this move, and thoau having the direction of these vessels have acted wisely in meeting this sentiment by a timely and liberal concession. During much of the past sea son some of the neighboring cities have enjoyed facilities in their steam lines which we have been deprived of, and we notice the present ohange with the hope that hereafter the steamers forming the lines to this point will be run on at least as favor able terms as these communicating with our neighbors. This much is absolutely necessary to the prosperity of this city. A Nsw HOUSE.-We are pleased to learn from the announcement in another colamn that Messrs. COURTENAY & TOBNHOLH, for many months past favorably kuown to our business community as commission and forwarding merchants at the once important distributing point of Newberry, S. C, have located themselves permanently in this city, and propose conducting a general mercantile business at No. 16 Boyeo'? Wharf. Mr. P. C. TBENHOLK has enjoyed the benefit 0: A fine business eduoation in the counting house 0 Messrs. JOHN FBASKR Se Co., and is not unknowi in mercantile circles. Mr. COURTENAY has had a long, practical oxpe rience with various branches of business. W hope this young firm will be successful in all thei ventures, and in timo take their place with th merchant princes of our city. IatPnovEMENTS.-We are pleased to seo tho wor of reconstruction in aotive progress in and aboi the City Hall. This building, as well as the Fir? Proof and the Court HOUBO, aro all undergoin thorough repair at this time. But what may pet haps int ereat many of our roaders moro, is the vigi rous manner in which the City Hall Park has bec put.to rights, -vs i th in the last few days. This WE once a favorite resort on hot rammer evening! and we have no doubt that in a vory abort tin: its shaded walks will again be filled with ga and fair promenade?, interspersed, perhaps, wil a spruce bein boro and thero. , For, of cours the Lothario cannot walk by the Bide of the "In porial duplex elliptic," wubin tho narrow limi assigned for tho purpose by the City Surveyor. The greensward, enlivened by the pleasing gan bola of the innocent, noisy prattlers, is a pictui all delight in ; and to be able to enjoy it in ti centre of the city, is no ordinary privilege, to si nothing of the salutary influence produced by st? exercise in tho cool ?haJo of thoso ancient treen, apon tho little children thomsolvos. Tho whitewashed trnnka, viewed in tho light of tho fall moon, will form a line study for a oon tomplativo plaintivo artist, fond of picturing ghost ly forma. A BHAOEOF SCAUPS.-Yoatorday morning abo tit 11 or 12o'clock, Mosca Clomonts, a frecdman, in tho omploy of Messrs. HOPKINS, MOPJJEIISON & Co., waa going down to tho wharf, on business, whon his attention was attractod by two colored youths (disciples of old FAOIN, doubtless) follow ing a gentleman, and making various etratogie moves and manouvres, with a view to transfer a silk pocket handkerchief from said gentleman's pocket to their own. A colored boy was watching their proceedings, and romonstratod with them, whon thoy struck bia hat off his hoad, and com menced beating him. At this stage Moses came up, and intorloroJ, saying, "It is a ah arno in you two followa to boat this boy so." "What you got do wid it?" was tho reply, and this angry retort was enforced hy a brickbat from oach of tho two would-bo pickpock ets. Ona of the missiles struck Moaea on the occiput, the othor on the forehead, inflicting two agly wounds. By this timo tho polico had come np, and arrested all parties. Dr. 6. LOGAN was called in, and promptly dressed the wound?. It is not thought that tho injury is serions, unless some un foreseen complication arise. The two infractora of the peace aro named Ste phen Brown and Adam Singleton,-both f jllowing thieving as a profession, and well known to the police. Two ladies, residing in Broad-etreet, see ing these worthies on their way to the Gnard House, joined the procession, and informed Lieut. CAMPBELL, the ofllcor of the day, that thoy had been robbod recently of sundry articles of cloth ing, etc., and that they identified tho prisoners as the thioves. BUSINESS NOTICES.
