Tho lire at two o'clock this morning was in the grain and hay atoro at the corner of John and Elizabeth streets, owned and occupied by Mr. MORAN, which waa entirely consumed, and tho adjoining buildings moro or less damaged. There was a great eoarcity of water. -o ATTENTION is called to our review of VICTOR HUCIO'S lato novel, published on tho second pago. THE GRAVES OF OUR CONFEDERATE DEAD_We are requested to remind the Ladies of Charleston that tho mooting to have takon place on Friday afternoon-with a view of forming a Bociety to orcct a monument and beautify tho grounds where rost the remains of our fallon heroes-will take place this afternoon, at half-past four o'clock, in tho drawing-room of the Mills House. The Ladiep, and such of the Olergy as take an interest in thia noble cause, will not fail to attend. THE SOUTHERN ?VND WI STERN LIFE ANO ACCIBENT INSURANCE COMPANY.-In another column will be found an advertisement of the above Insurance Company. General JAKES LONQSTREET is the Presidenf of the Company, and we presume that our readers will thus .consider his name alone a greater recommendation than anything we can say in its behalf. THE LIVERPOOL, LONDON AND GLOBE INSURANCE COMPANY-The attention of those of our readers who deairo insurance is directed to the advertise ment of the above company, of which Mr. C. T. LOWNDES is the agent. The character of the agent alone, notwithstanding the many advantages and securities offered by the company, is a guarantee of ita reliability. A gold capital of sixteen millions is rather a large thing for the "unreconstructed" to look at. BOOTS COME DOWN.-Tho big iron boot, that for years had. attracted, the attention of passers through H ay ne street, and stopped them in front of Messrs. FORCE & MITOIIKLL'B former shoe store, has taken ita departure. One of the signs of the times has walked off. We miss the familiar leg and well-known toes. On inquiry, we learned that the said boot-understanding that one of the membora of the late firm wai- doing business in Atlanta-at once "pulled up Btakes," and marched off in that direction. SINKING OF THE STEAMER LIZZIE BAKER_Tho Bteamer Emilie, at this port f<*om Savannah, re ports that the steamer Lizzie Raker, Capt. KINO, on her passage from Savannah to Florida, struck the obstructions below the former place, on Fri day afternoon last. Capt. KINO, not thinking that the damages was as serious as it afterwards prov ed, continued on his voyage for a short distance; but soon discovering that all the pumps on board were unable to keep her freo, turned back to reach Savannah, but Bunk some distance below that city. The Lizzie Raker is nearly undor water at high tide, and it will require much labor and expense to raise her. Her passengers and freight were taken out by t'-o steamor Emilie, Capt. BEAUFORT, and carried to Savannah. CORONER'S INQUEST.-On Friday and Saturday last Coroner WHITING was engaged in holding an in que at over the body of EDWARD MILLIGAN. [This was an interesting youth, about 17 years old, much lamented by all who knew bim.] The cir cumstances connected with his death, as elicited by the testimony before the jury, are as follows: On the night of the 27th nit., while the Marion Fire Engine Company were entertaining the Georgia companies that were here at the time, young MILLIGAN went into the engine house to pay a visit; there was a slight altercation between W. F. CREAMER and Hoon CALLAN; the latter drew back and pulled out a knifo to stab CBEAMER, when MILLIGAN, standing near by, received a wound on the right side of his face. He was takon home, and died on Thursday last. CALLAN ac knowledged that he intended to kill CREAMER, and that he was sorry he had stabbed MILLIGAN, as ho had had nothing at all against him. The verdict of the jury: "That the said ED WARD MILLIGAN carne i/o his death by a wound on the right aide of his face, inflicted with a knife, on the 27th nit., at the Marlon Engine House. The said knifo was in tho hands of Huon CALLAN, and that the said CALLAN did feloniously kill, fee" Arrests have been ordered. BURGLAR ARRESTED.-Some six weeks ago the jewelry store of Mr. HART, on tho south Bide.of Broad, between Meeting and Church street?, was broken opeD, and nomo eighteen or twenty gold and silver watches stolon, together with various articles of jewelry. Lieut. HENDRIZ and Officer COATES took the bearings of the case, and followed it up, and by dint of vigilance and perseverance (such as none but tho initiated know how to appre ciate), succeeded at last in " treeing " ono of the rogues on Saturday evening last, in Wigg's restau rant, on Market-street. Tho party in question had offered to sell a flue enamelled gold watch to Wigg, and had left it with Wigg, who went ont to some jeweller to ascertain its value. The latter notified Lieut. HENDRIX, who repaired to' the said colored tavern, ii. Marko?,-?ti cot, and 'in- due couran of timo nabbed both the watch and its pre tedded owner,)" The jeweller., fro-ox whom the watch had boen stolen, at once identified it, and proved property by showing the numhor of the watch registered in his book. When arrested, the man gave hia na-uo as John Jenkins, which, how ever, is not believed to be his real cognomen. He said Morriu Island ia his home ; refused to state where he had be?n boarding last ia tbo city. Fa??AFXD FROM JAIL.-On Friday night last, the 11th ?net., Ave prisoners (white), succeeded in making their escapo from the Charleston Jail in Magazino-atroot. They had by some means be come possessed o? a hook, by means of which, it is supposod, thoy loosened several brioko on the Bide of a window on tho third floor (ooonting the basement as the first floor). They passed through thk< opening, and let thomselvea down into the court yard by means of strips of blankote,. which had been converted into a rope. From tho place where the hook was found next morning, it ia snppo8od that they UBcd it to mount upon a win dow sill adjoining the north wall, from where they cou'd, without inuoh difficulty, gain the top of the wall, and thon leaped into Magazinc-atreot. Dili gent search has beon mado for them, but no trace of thom has been discovered as yet. The following are tho parties who made thoir escape : TIMOTU? CROWLEY, recently sentenced to six months' imprisonment for stealing. W_. J. LAWLESS and GEORGE SMITH, both charged with highway robbery and rape. MARTIN M. HALEY and DENNIS CARROLL are the other two. We do not know what they stood charged with. That theso five persons shonld have got away from jail in tho manner above dotailed, and left no trace by which they could be followed up, Bhows a culpable degree of carelessness eome whoro. BIOT IK ELLIOTT STREET -About half-past ten o'clock Saturday night, a report roaohod the Main Quard House that there was a considerable dis turbance at a negro ball in Elliott-street The messenger Bald, "there was a great row, and fir ing of pistols.*' Lient. HEHDRTx, iu charge of a equad of about twenty policemen, promptly re paired to the scene; broko up the ball, and arrest ed all the persons eDgaged in it-some thirty or forty men and women. A little while after these parties had been lodg ed in the Guard House, Lieut. MINOTT, noticing a squad of six or eight colored soldiers marching down Mceting-streot, and turning into St. Michael's Alley, suspected that their intention was to re-opo:i tho ball. These negro soldiers had Bido-armB and revolvers. Lieut. MINOTT gavo na the following statement of what occurred after wards. He says : ''Sorgt FULLER and I at onco rode down to Elliott-street, and found these par ties, as I had expected, riotously disposed, at the houao where tho ball bad just been broken up. All were in the house excepting two, who were walk ing up and down in front of the house, using very abueive language. I rode up and told thom that the officers of the Police had juBt broken up a ball at this house ; that I intended to clear the street, and that they must leave. One of thom replied that he lived there, and had a right to re main. I then told him, if so, he must go into the honso, as I should have the street cleared. He stepped into a grocery store close by, when the proprietor shoved him out again, saying : 'Lieut.' ho has nobusines hero. I wish you would take him away.' I then told him he was my pri soner, and must go to the Guard House, as he bad refused to leave the street. He replied in very profane and abusive language, saying that he would not be arrested by any police officer. I sparred my horse right np on the pavement, and oaught hold of his collar. He eluded my grasp, seized my reins, and flirted the horse off the pave ment, saying 'stand back,' and drew his revolver. I told him if he moved another step I should shoot him. He immediately cocked his pistol; it snap ped twioe, but the third shot went off. He was then about six paces from me. I spurred my horse, the sergeant following me, and rode up to him, when the nogro ran through Bodon'e Alley, down Trftdd-Btreet, to Adger's Wharf. '.I pursued him on horsebaok, ordering him at ovory stop to halt, or I would shoot him. Finding he would not halt, and was about to eaoape, I rode up alongside, prefiented my pistol and fired, when ho fell, and my horse pa?aed right over him. He remained there apparently insensible, till the foot police arrived and took him in charge. "At this time his comrade (whom we had left in Elliott-street) oame up, and, on being recognized, he was ordered under arrest; wherenpon he step ped back about five paces, drew hia revolver, and, with an oath, remarked that ho would not be ar rested by any police officer, and fired his pistol. I charged my horse upon him, at the same time firing my revolver. The negro then took refuge among a lot of cotton bales, where, after consider able search, he was found, and taken to the Quard House." None of the shots fired by either party took effect. ALMOST A ROW-About one o'clock yesterday, there was a great running to and fro in Market street. We followed the crowd, and after conside rable inquiry and cross-examination, succeeded in eliciting the following facts : An intoxicated color ed man, named Solomon Epps, ex-sergeant, was on the Markot-fltreet wharf, waiting to go on a pleasure excursion in the Rockland. He went up to Mr. O. E. B'iowN, paymaster's clerk of tho U. 8. steamer Squandb, who was also waiting to go out in the Rockland. Solomon catches Mr. BROWN by the shoulder, and says : "I say, you've been in the army, and so have I; and I bet you I got more money than yon." Mr. BROWN tried to get away from Solomon, when the latter beoame very abu sive and obstreperous, and Mr. BROWN went up the street after a poll?-man, who arrested tho aforo-montionod Solomon, mnoh,however, against his (Solomon's) will. A crowd soon gathered in the Market, surrounding the P. M. at-d the- pris oner, and brickbats flow in every direction. Mr. BROWN deeming this a very unhealthy locality, made haste to leave it, and tho P. M., "not wish ing to be killed," as he said, followed suit, leaving his prisoner leaning against a butcher's stall in the market, very drunk and very foul-mouthed. As the ?fugitives reached Meeting-street, Lieut. CAMPBELL, a sergeant, and some six of eight po licemen came toward Ihe scene of action, when all partios went to the Guard House. Solomon's pockets contained $57 and a silver watch. Biches at the bottom of his trouble. /. ' HEALTH OF KEY WEST-S?B_?.BI*_ Tt_*K*RA*?*r TO COBA.-The TJ. 8. Coast Survey steamer Cor win arrived at Port Boyal on Sunday morning, the 18th, direct from Koy West. She brings' in formation that the place was never in a moro healthy condition than at present. Tho following is tho copy of a paper brought by her: "Kar WEST, FLA., May 10, I860, ) OFFICE OF HEALTH O?TICER.
