POWELL, Proprietor, and L. VLBGINIA FBENCH, Editress. ' The paper is as neatly-gotten up as any in the United States,-full of excellent reading matter,' both origin al and selected. . ? y. ___o__ ATLANTA seems to have recovered faster from the prostration, not to say annihilaten, brought upon it by. the war.

' ' H MUTON'S PARADISE LOST.-This interesting exhibition has attracted large audiences the past week, many being nuable to gaid admittance owing to the1 crowded state Of the. HidL In accordance with a very general des ire, tho exhibition will remain three nights ponger, the pro? prietor having kindly postponed his engagemen te at | Wilmington and Richmond.

In muoh more rapidly than we had hoped for, and every Indication ls that a busy' season asalta us. We invoke the energy of all our friends.". CHABIKBTON HOTEI^.-Southerners are characteris? tically attached to old associations, and in no respect more particularly than io regard to their bornea .and those substitutos for homes-not?is. [ For many years the planters and country merchants of South Carolina abd adjoining States have been in tho habit of.stopping at the Charleston Hotel, and ene familiar with these classes can scarcely go there at anytime without see lng many well known faces. No institution of our city t has changed eo little-the same megnlaoent piazza, the same comforts, the sase well furnished table, and often the same guests as ten years ago,; The Charleston Hots I Isla no respect second to any In tho city, aud under the management of its present polite and enterprising manager, Mr. WHITE, it io likely for a long time to sus? tain its and?nt reputation. t j . Peses FOUND.-Yesterday a colored woman named Julianne Bobear saw? boy piok up a purse In We nt worth street, and run off with it. She gave ohase, over? took tbs boy, and took lt away from bim. On examin? ing it, it proved to be a very aloe purse, containing an Etruscan brooch and a smaU amount or money. In? stead of converting it to her own use, as she mig h t very well have done, and as we are sorry to believe m oat peo? ple would have done, abe carried lt to the Guard H ouse, to be taken care off, aud advertised, and delivered to the owner when called for. Julianne Bobear was formerly ? slave, and ia still very muoh attached to her former owners. A virtue ls seldom found alone, an d here we have a display of honesty doing credit to a well-tried fidelity. THBOWZNU STONES -TheOharlestm pabilo are doubt? less well aware that our rowdy youth of both colo rs have long indulged in the annoying and dangerous practico Of throwing stones at each other in the streets, and es? pecially on the Citadel Green, the Battery, and olher open placas. The fights on the Green have been stopped for some tune, and practice generally ls on the decrease, but it has not been totally abandoned, and yesterday a squad of city police made a sudden desceat upon a par? cel of these pugnacious and restless boya, and succeeded In capturing three and carrying them to the Guard House. Thereat of the party escaped after a hard race and a great fright. It is to be hoped that ou r vigilant and active police will soon succeed m putting a final stop to a practice whloh is as inexcusable as lt is dangerous, Those caught shoul i be severely dealt with BB an exam pie. BTABWUNCJ INCIDENT-Yesterday morning M rs. walked ont into her flower garden, to cull a bouquet to | wear to ohnrch. While plucking, the flower s she nc ticed a haversack hangln? noon the garden fence next J the street Tempted by the spirit bf ourtoaity, which, in oommon with the rest of her sex, she Inherited from | Mother Eve, ehe took d wn the haversack and exam? ined ii Imagine her consternation when she discov? ered within the haversack the dead body o f a colored infant Ti e police were called in immediately, and the body being delivered into their otaarge, was carried to the Guard House, where an inquest was hell. The jurors decided that the infant came to its death by means to them unknown. This ia an ~aoplden tally dis? covered inoident in sn unknown chapter of crime in a I volume of commentaries on the benefits of abolition to the colored oeople. FBEED PBEBS SifPPBEsaED.-A special dispatch to the I New York Tribune dated AugUBta, Ga., June 7, 1866, is | as follows: / ??The military, by ord?r of General Tillson, have | taken posaeasion of the office of the Loyal Georgian. " As we lave never enjoyed the pleaaure of seeing a single copy of the aforenamed literary production, we can, of course, not say what was the immedi ate cause that led to thia catastrophe, bat surmise it mu st have been its account of the meeting between the free dmen and Generals STEEDMAN and FULLERTON, on Sun da; after? noon, the 3d Instant. While on this Bubjeot of oolored newspapers, we will | state that we bave een it formed that "The So. Ca Lead ?r,"acolored paper published in thia city, haa given up the ghost, The officers who took possession of the office were more olvil than military; that is, if we are not misinformed, for we heard tho Sheriff officiated o n the .coaeion. RESIGNATION OF TREASURY. OFFICIALS.-The followin g documenta explain themselves : TREASURY DEPARTMENT, June 4th, 1866. SIB :-On account of your inability to take the oath ! required by law, I am reluctantly compelled to suggest j that I shall be under the necessity of requesting you to j forward me your resignation to take effect as soon aa a successor is appointed and qualified. The Department will mike a communication to Con? gress upon the subject of the compensation for services already rendered by office,s who have been unable to take tho oath, and I trust a suitable provision will be made in some way for such payment, ., Very respectfully, (Signed) H. MCCULLOCH, Secretary of the Treasury. . P. M. ROBEBTSON, Esq., Examiner of Drugs, Oharieston, S. 0. CHARLESTON, 8. C., 'une 8,1886. SIB:-I have the hou'jr to acknowledge the receipt of your communication of tho i th inst., requesting me to forward you my resignation as Special Examtnor of Drags, &o., for the port of Charleston. S. C., Inconse? quence of myinabillty to tike therequired oarh.

With my thanks for your expressions of sympathy and courtesy, I remain, very re peotfully, your obedient servant, F. M. ROBERTSON, M. D. Honorable H. MOOULLOOH, Secretary of the Treasury, Washington, D. 0. PBOVOST OOOBT, Saturday, June 9.-Dark cloud of | prisoners and witnesses obscures the Court Room. Fortunate arrangement throws cloud to leeward of I judges, clerks, lawyer's and reporters, who are thus [ sav<d from overpowering incense. On looking over Friday's proceedings, we notice that tho negro who was fined $20 for resisting the polios, had appealed on the ground that the punishment was too severe. This sur? prised us muchly. A small sergeant attempts to arrest a disorderly negro. Negro resists; takes club away from sergeant and boats him With it, and has tho im? pudence to appeal from a $20 flue as too severe a pun? ishment. O t?mpora I 0 mores I The original sentence of sixty days' hard labor, from which the forgiving ser? geant begged him off. was hardly enough for him. The first case before tho Court was th it of the United States vs. Asa Oray, for stealing a gold watch. Asa was a tall, black, dirty uoatro, with a bran new oap, but no? thing else new or clean. A gold watch would hare boon amostincongruous ornament. A porfoot mania seems to I have taken hold of the colored population, to -possess [ watches; They invest the first of their earnings in watches, and if they can't.buy thom they steal them. Thf re was another case of watch stealing before the Court i -but that was a silver watch, or, as ono of the witnesses more particularly described lt, a silver escape watch, The following case of dog stealing elicited more inter? est than any other before the Court: United 8tates ci..Minus Rspar and Bristol Roper Laroeny of a Dog.-FBEDEBIOK BISOUJFF, sworn, says that he saw.defendant, Minus Roper, leading a dog tied by a string. ; Witness ioqntred~politely of Mr.' Minus Roper, colored individual, if the right of property in the sai l dog lay in him the said Mr." Minus Roper, colored individual; also, for what sum of money he would ex? change the Said canine quadruped, and also to what cognomen the Bald canine was trained to answer. The Bald Mr. Minus Roper, colored individual, replied cate? gorically to him, FREDERICK BISCHOFF, Oerman, that the canine was his, that ho would take $10, and that the canine answered,to tho name of Brutus. Witness offer? ed to purchase half, cash, half at expiration of six weeks. Witness carried'Mr. M. R., colored individual, home, with him, and gav? him six dollars. This morn? ing, while witness was coming from market, dog left hun'and entered store of Messrs. HUGER St HABEL, well known vendors of. India rubber belting, patent venti? lators, fita, 4o. Witness wont into stpre after dog. Gentleman in store said dog belonged to British friend of his, H. P. WALKEB, Consul Witness then carried dog to ' Consul's r?sidence. Dog therein seemed at home, and heeded the' name Of Jeff, whereby it appear? ed, that he had been named in honor of the Confederate and not tho Roman hero. Witness left dog with Con? sul's brother's son, who is present in Court to do his own swearing. . F. D, WALKEB, Consul's brother's Son, sworn: Says that ho,knows tho canine now under discussion. Said canine is the property of H. P. WALKEB, Esq,, Her ? British Majesty's Consul in the Queen City,. Canine, as waa his custom, accompanied witnoss, some ten days In the past, toa diurnal haunt of witness known as the j office. Canine entered, but departed! quickly, and was no more seen until.fchis morning, when he was brought to the residence of witness' father's brothor, Her British Majesty's Consul aforesaid, by Mr. FBRDBRIOK BISO H ? ow, the German gentleman who has| j nat retired from: the stand. No particle.of doubt of the identity of j ?nine disturbs the mind of witness., Mr; Minns Roper, colored Individual, was found guilty and sentenced to $10 fine or ten days' Imprison . mont Mr. Bristol itopor was acquitted and discharged. Mary Conding, colored female, for disorderly conduct In camp, was sentenced to twenty days' imprisonment, subject to order of Provost Marshal By order Brevet Col. H. B. GLITZ, U. S. A., J. H. UoBtiAiB has been appointed Associate Provost Judge. MAYOR'S COURT, Saturday Morning, June 9.-Th e | light of the familiar countenance of tho Mayor was shed upon bis satellites some minutes before nine o'clock. While waiting for that hour his Honor, relaxing from judicial dignity, narrates anecdote pf surprised horse. first Casc.-k pet of LEVY. Flabby woman in a killing bonnet Drank. Blackguarding her husband loudly. Destroying at once connubial felicity and the public peace, 'Turned over to a magistrate. Second Case. -Prisoner siok. Doctor prescribed soup dinner, and .milk and bread breakfast and supper. Artesian water and bread pills being the only sick diet [ afforded by the Guard House, prisoner was sent to jail that he might fare more sumptuously. Third Cate -Eldc-rly' individual with gray hair and very little of it. Riding on tho pavement. Defended himself eloquently from prepared notes. Eloquence not convincing. Fined $5. Declined to pay. Wonder If it won't cost him $1001 . CROPS ON PEE DEE -A writer to the Marion Orescen 11 thus speaks of crops in the northeastern part of the State. The letter ls dated June 2: "Within two weeks I have seen nearly all the crops un tho road from Gil? christ's Bridge to Britton's Ferry, and several miles below the ferry, and many crops not on said road. From all that I have seen and heard iu a scope of country .> n Little Pee Dee, there are but two mon who have planted an average crop of cotton in four hundred square miles -those two have planted more than an average crop - got a bad rise, and I saw since the 15th of May tha t a I large part had been ploughed up, and heard that they j wore continuing to plough and plaut. But few, if any others, have planted near an average orop of cotton or corn. The corn looks better than I expected to find it under the disadvantage of extreme wet and cold. The cotton generally looks badly, and not a very good stand. Therefore, I am of opinion that if the seasons aro fa? vorable the remainder of the year, and the oropswell! tended, that we shall not realize m >ro than a two-thirds orop of corn and a half crop of cotton. The seasons may be adverse, and generally it is impossible to con? trol free negroes to near the same extent aa wien slaves. From these circumstances, aud others not mentlonod, I have come fti ly to the c inclusion that we shall not generally realize more than one half of an average corn crop, and one third of ov.tou crop." MORDER,-The Savannah Republican, ot June 7th, says that, on Wednesday m irtiiug, at <JJ? o'clock, tho ) dead body of a ne >r > was round fl eating down tho river. It was scoured and the Joroimr no ?tied, wno immedi? ately emnannelle.l a jury of inquest, whose Anding wil11 be seen below. The nrtgro was not idoutided, aud no clue has SB yet beo ? oin iluod as to his identity. Ho was of la ge stature, very larg-t heal, broad full face, with heavy beard extending over hts face, dressed in bia e pants with shirt and from t e o mdltlon of the bod y ha i not be: n in the water for more than three days.
