LOCAL MATTERS.
WB ABB indebted to the parser of the steamer
Eliza Hancox for Savannah papers of yesterday.
MASONIC.-At the regular Convocation of the
Germania Chapter, No. 12, the following Compan?
ions were duly elected to serve for tho next ??ason
ic year :
Comp. J. M. PETERSEN, H. P.
Comp. C. H. BERGMANN, E.
Comp. J. KRUSE, S.
Comp. L. F. MEYER, C. H.
Comp. G. REINDECKE, P. S.
Comp. G. DORKEWITZ, B. A. C.
Comp. M. BORK, G. M.. 3d V.
Comp. CH FLOTHMANN, G. M., 2d Y.
Comp. F. J. RUCKH, G. M., 1st V.
Comp. A. MELCHERS, Treasurer.
Comp. R. BERGMAN Secretary.
Comp. J. H. SCHMIDT, Tyler.
THE STBEET RAILWAY.-The cars have been run?
ning on the "Wentworth and Rutlodgo Btroct line
for some days, and have only addod to the general
satisfaction with which this enterprise has been
greeted by^every citizen. Tho distant localities
are now brought within easy communication with
each other, and business men have time to
digeat their meals and take a pleasant ride, instead
of toiling through the dusty streets on foot, "While
all of the conveniences ar? gratefully appreciated,
and tho institution well patronized hy the travel?
ling public, yet it appears that tho labor of pulling
a car load of passengers is rather heavy work for
one horse, and although the cars are a trifle small?
er, they can bb made to hold the same number, for
their capacity is elastic.
THE YOUNO MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION an?
nounces that the Rev. Dr. SMYTIL, of the Second
Presbyterian Church, will deliver a sermon before
them in Bethel Methodist Church, to-morrow eve?
ning, tho 30th inst., commencing at 7 o'clock. Al?
though the church selected for tho delivery of this
.discourse is not so central in its location as others,
nevertheless we expect to soc it crowded by per?
sons from every part of the city, as thc occasion of
hearing th?8 excellent minister is one not to he
alighted. The young men of this city are especi?
ally invited to be present, and they cannot spend1
the last Sunday evening of tho year in a hotter
manner than hy listening to a discourse which
will contain much to benefit them in tho future,
and assist them in commencing the new year prop?
erly.
UNION WHARVES.-When last we visited thiB lo?
cality, in August, we thought our public-spirited
fellow-citizen, T. D. "WAQNEB, Esq., was on a for?
lorn hope at the foot of Pinckney street ; hut a
few months have wrought a great change. The
? meek of the old wharves is replaced hy a mest
substantial struc ture. Pier No. 1 is really a fine
one, with a corresponding shed. The counting
houses on the wharf also make a very presentable
appearance. "Workmen are still engaged on Pier
No. 2, which will soon he ready for the largest
ships. Another marked improvement, noticeable
on the premises, ia a good fence enclosing Pier
No. 1, fronting Concord street-two large gate?
ways, opening thereon, insuring privacy at night.
Order is to be preserved in day-time also, we judge,
from the inscription over the entrance, "Keep to
the right."
WE HAVE MUCH pleasure in publishing the sub- j
Joined communication from Dr. Cms om. The let?
ter referred to was published in our paper by par- |
ticular request :
OFFICE NO. 74 HASEL STREET, >
December 28,18G6. f
ME. EDITOB : I regretted much to see in your
issue of this morning a letter, signed by one of j
my patients, who, without my knowledge or con?
sent, gave to your readers an expression of her
thankfulness for benefits received. Such commu?
nications through the public journals are rightly j
condemned by the profession as tending to char?
latanism, and are always annoying to the persons
named. Patients who adopt this method of giving !
vent to their feelings of gratitude, however good
their motives may be, do injury, and not benefit,
to their medical attendant.
JULIAN J. CHISOLM, M. D.
HAMLET-"The air bites shrewdly; it is very cold."
HOBATIO-"It is a nipping and an eager air."
Although this conversation took place in by-gone I
years, and in a colder climate, yet the same re?
marks could have been applied with equal force to
the weather of the past few days. Since the re- j
cent rain, old Boreas has roused himself and howls
around the corners of hcuses and nips thc ears of
the unoffending passengers in a disagreeable and
vindictive manner. Walking, under these circum?
stances, is far from pleasant; the stern Bex bend
to the blast, and tiltarcecs are forced to seek
refuge in the friendly shelter of the street cars.
These last have redoubled their popularity, and
the jingle of the bells is as music to the ear, and
is hailed by the weary and storm-bent as a signal
of rest and as a refuge from their troubles.
As our Northern brethren are now in the full en?
joyment of the skating season, it was evidently
thought but fair that the South should see what
iee was. Unfortunately we have no fresh water
ponds in this vicinity, but an open drain at the
corner of Market and Church streets was impro?
vised into a skiting ground, and practiced upon
with great oclat oy sundry small darkies, until
thoj broke the ice, when it was resigned to the
buzzards, who skirmished over it with equal agili?
ty and preserved their equilibrium astonishingly.
Christmas week has generally been with ns
warm and pleasant, and the past Christmas Day
was most delightful; hut immediately after it had
left, the wind came round to the northwest; and
brought the full feeling of winter upon us. We
must regard this cold snap, however, as merely a
spirt, and look for a return of moderate weather
in a few days.
GOOD ACCOMMODATIONS.-Tho range of of?ces on
the southside of Accommodation Wharf has been
recently completed, and those who remember the
dingy brown building that formerly occupied this'
site will he agreeably surprised to see the
transformation made there in a few months. The
' factors, who have "been living in a rather crowded
condition in the opposite range, hailed the com?
pletion with pleasure, and the new offices were
speedily occupied.
Messrs. KENDALL & DOCKKBV and HUNT & BRO.
celebrated the. occasion of their removal to their
new quarters by a substantial and spiritual treat,
which, for a house warming, answered the purpose
admirably. \ Jt was a ruins:ling of congenial spirits,
aa the representatives of King Cotton from every
part of the city were collected together. "v
Accommodation Wharf baa recently been im?
proved by tho erection of a !?rgo 8hod on tho south
platform, which affords ample protection to tho
cotton stored there. In tho last month great
activity has takon place in this trade, and the cot
j ton bides aro piled so .closely that locomotion is
somewhat impeded. Few wharves arc moro patron?
ized than tho Accommodation, and the facilities
offered there for business render it fully worthy of
its name
-o
MAYOR'S COURT, December 23.-An individual
was reported for having a cellar door so out of re?
pair as to be dangerous to pedestrians, and the case
was referred to the City Inspector..
James Grant, a "fellow-citizen of African do
soent," who indulges in the aristocratic employ?
ment of driving a one-horse dray, and who ob?
structed the sidewalk with his vehicle, and when
remonstrated with began to show slight signs of
fight, was fined S3.
A man who was so drunk as to be unable to help
himself, and who had gone to roost on a pile of
bricks in the burnt district, but was discovered
by a policeman, who carried him to the Guard
House and placed his "woary hoad" on a city
feather pillow, was fined S3, and requested to have
his coat brushed.
An individual, not of surpassing beauty, was re?
ported by his wife for getting drunk and breaking
up tho furnituro of the house, which had been so
well done, on the testimony of an officer, that thoro
was not a piocc left larger than a man's hand, was
finod $5. Hans, in his defence, stated that his
vrow got tight off of his fowls-that is, she stolo
his poultry and bought whiskey-and that ho
wanted to bo even with her, "so fte cot trunk and
proaked tings."
A man who waa drunk and aalcop, leaning against
await, butwho quietly assumed the horizontal posi.
tion when carried to ono of tho splendid bed-rooms
of the Guard HOUBO, was fined $3, and advised to
keep away from walls.
NEORO EMIGRATION_The Atlanta lnteW.ge.ncer
says :
Not a day passes but large numbers of the
negro population take their departure westward
over the State Road. We have been informed that
not less thau a thousand per week are thus trans?
ported on their way rejoicing to the rich Missis?
sippi bottoms. They are collected up in various
sections by agents, and it ?3 said that all sorts of
inducements are offered them. A group may Le
seen at the car-shed every day, awaiting ship
nient.
The same can be said of this city, with tho ex?
ception that thc sable emigrants from tho Palmet?
to State seem to prefer the Land of Flowers for
their goal. They have probably heard of its para?
disical qualities, and anticipate a fifo of indolent
ease. Be this as it may, they are on the wing, and
for the last two days might have been seen in
groups in our city, so that, if wo did not live in the
piping times of peace, we would think that they
were a lot of hands to work on the fortifications.
These negroes all seem in good spirits, and an?
ticipate a fine timo in their future home. At the
present time the Avant of labor is a great evil, and
the loss of so many valuable hands is to be de?
plored, especially as the planting season is about
to commence ; but what is our loss may be their
future gain, and although we miss their services
we bid them God speed.
EXTRA MEETING OF CITY COUNCIL-Present

A letterJErom Inspectors ana Measurers of Lumber
asking what fee they should charge, as several
changes had occurred, and requested Council to
take action in the matter. The Mayor stated that
last year they were allowed to charge 50 cents pei
1000, but that they should now be confined to the
charge prescribed by law.
Alderman HONOUR offered the following:
The Committee on Belief, in January last, ir
reporting on an application of sundry merchants,
in relation to the tees charged by the Measurers
and Inspectors of Lumber, stated that the parties
agreed that a charge of 50 cents per M feet woulc
be just and equitable, and the Committee recom?
mended that such should be the charge. It since
appearing that thia was in contradiction tp an Ad
of Legislature, the Committee now recommend
that the permission to change be now rescinded.
J. H. HONOUR,
S. G. COURTENAY,
R. M. BUTLER.

SHD?-WARITTNO.-Our readers from time to tim
have been advised of the progreeB of trade betwee:
Baltimore. and Charleston. A few of our entei
prising citizens, taking advantage of this tide
have united with citizens and corporations of Bal
t.moro and established the "Baltimore and Charlee
ton Railroad and Steamship Company." The ai
rival of tho flag-ship of this line in our waters wa
tho occasion yesterday of a pleasant reunion c
stockholders and a few friends of Captain REEI
The company, on coming on board the Falcoi
made a tour of inspection7 She is a substantif
built ship, of 672 tons burden, 180 feet long, S
fcot beam, 16 foot hold, with a capacity of 500
barrels, or 1200 bales of compressed cotton. Sh
has recently refitted, end has accommodations fe
25 cabin passengers; the state-rooms being large
than usually found on coasting ships. Her rig
ging is tho improved wire rigging, and machiner]
sails, spars, all of th? very best description.
The collation spread in the saloon next olaimc
the .attention of the visitors. Captain RTOD pr?
sided. Among the guests, his Honor P. C. GAD
LARD, Mayor; Alderman E. W. MARSHALL; ANDRE
SYMONDS, President of the First. National Bah!
EDWARD LAFITTE, Esq., CHARLES H. WEST, Jr
Esq., L E. HERTZ, Esq., A. B. CHTSOLK, Esq., an
the agents, J. L. TOBLIS, of MORDECAI & Co., an
Messrs. COURTENAY & TRENHOLM, and other mei
chants, together with representatives from tb
Mercury and CHARLES J ON DAISY, NEWS.
If the passengers of the Falcon far e half as we
as our party did yesterday, Capt. REED will have
vote of thanks and a chronometer presented at t?a
end of every voyage. , . . , ' ... ; ' \
\ Alter ample justice had been done to tho Stet
? ard'a cuisine, "E. LAFITTE, Esq., proposed^ vex
cumplimentar,/ lenna tho success of tho Baltimore
and Charleston Railroad and Steamship Company's
Linc. Ecspondod to by Capt. REED, whb said that
from boyhood ho had been associated with tho
commorce of Charlo ton-in tho good old times
when tho packet ships of JOHN FRASER & Co. car?
ried their signal-flags to the Eastorn world. For
sixteon years before thc war this was his homo; it
was his home during the war, and hero ho takes
his place to do his duty in tho day of her tempora?
ry adversity. Ile said ho was no public speaker;
that tho high seas was hin scene of action, with
lifo and proporty in his kcoping. If those trusts
wero faithfu ly performed, his ambition would bc
gratified. He concluded by offering as a senti?
ment : "The City of Charleston-May her com?
merce incroase and prosper through all time."
His Honor thc Mayor replied innis usual earnest
manner ; alluded to tho establishment of this lino,
a largo share of the stock of which was owned by
our citizens, as the best evidence that Charleston
is going forward in her new career of prosperity.
CHAS. H. WEST, Jr., proposed the health of the
Captain-a REED not shaken by the winds. Mr.
HERTZ proposed the health of Hon. M. C. MORDE?
CAI, ihe senior partner of tho well known Charles?
ton house, tho projector of this line. Responded
tc by Mr. TOBIAS, who took occasion to say that
whatever credit may bo due his house, or any
other, in the organization of the present company,
thc project could never have boen successfully car?
ried out but for the personal exertions of Mr. Wsr.
A. COURTENAY, of COURTENAY & TRENHOLM.
Mr. COURTENAY rosponded. and said that in ac?
knowledging tho compliment ho felt that too much
had been placed to his credit. Aft-T a four years
absence in tho army, he was, upon thc snrronder,
compelled to remain thirteen months longur away
from his nativo city. Upon his return, in tho
spring of 18GG, he noticed the large bnsinoss grow?
ing up between that noble ?kl city-"by blue Pa
tapsco's billowy wave." and our own "City by tho
Sea," and he determined to foster it with the aid of
stoam. After consultation with the Hon. M. C.
MORDECAI, tho success of a line of first-class steam?
ers between tho two ports was considered reasona?
bly certain. The enterprise was consummated by
obtaining the co-operation of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, tho South Carolina Railroad, and
the Georgia Railroad. Two fine ships are now
running on tho line, bringing large freights, not
only to this city, but to Augusta, Atlanta, Colum?
bia and Charlotte, showing that in spite of compe?
tition, the natural advantages of Charleston were
known and appreciated in the interior.
Mr. COURTENAY alluded to the singular unanim?
ity shown by the native and adopted sons of old
Charleston, in returning to her in her misfortunes,
when fire had scourged her, and shot and shell had
torn her dear old homos. Like tho dwellers in the
vale at the foot of Vesuvius thoj all
"Though floods of lava desolate thc plain,
Had turned, enchanted, to the spot again;"
and, turning to Captain REED, said, hero is ono
from the land of HERMAN and SCHILLER, who, free
to go any where, yot came back to his old homo,
willing to share its adversity, as in happier days
he enjoyed its generous kindness.
Mr. DAWSON, of the Mercury, in response to a
toast to the Press, took occasion to pay a glowing
tribute to Baltimore and her peoplo; having dur?
ing tte war, as a prisoner, often experienced their
kindness and large-hearted liberality.
There were other toasts, and other speeches, and
plenty of good cheer, and the very best of feeling.
Altogether, the reunion was one of the most pleas?
ant we have participated in during many mouthB,
and all parties left tho good ship in the best of
good humor, and hopeful of better times for Old
Charleston. ,

mWO FULL SESSIONS OF LECTURES EACH YEAR,
I commencing tho first of October, and continuing I
until April The Dissecting Rooms are open, and pri?
vate lectures and quizzes continued during thc entire
year. The first session continues until Christmas, or for
three months, and tho second until the first of ApriL or
three months; the two constituting one foll course of lec?
tures. Examination ot' candidates for graduation will
occur at thc end of each session.
Requisites for Graduation_Tho requisites for gradna- j
don are three sessions of lectures, and three years study;
or four sessions, including two years spent at the Uni?
versity.
The System of Medicine Taught.-Tho University is a I
liberal medical school, in which all branches of medicine j
and surgery are taught, including the preparatory studies,
without regard to any sectarian views. Hence, while
they deprecate the exclusiveness of Allopathy, Homoeo?
pathy, Eclecticism, Hydropathy, etc, they believe that
all principles of cure and therapeutical agents should be
taught in all well-regulated medical schools, and that
every intelligent, honest, and thorough practitioner is
entitled to all the courtesies and privileges of the
profession, without regard to his peculiar notions in
therapeutics.
Fees.-The fees for oil branches, including all the
tickets, matriculation, and dissection, are $60 a session,
or $120 per year. Those who purchase tickets only have j
to matriculate once, which makes the second session $55,
including demonstrator's fees, or $115 for a full course.
To aid young men of moderate means, the University !
has issued five hundred scholarships, which are sold to
first-course students, for S75, and to second-course stu?
dents and clergymen for $50, each constituting the holder !
a life member, with the perpetual privileges of the lee- [
titres, and all the teachings of the school. The only ad?
ditional fees are a yearly dissecting and matriculating
ticket, each of which is $5.
The Advantages of Scholarships.-The student holding
a scholarship can enter the College at any time during !
the year, attend os long as he chooses, and re-enter the j
Institution as frequently as desired.
It requires no previous reading or study to enter the
University on scholarships, hence adi private tuition fees
are saved.
Students, by holding scholarships, can prosecute other |
business a part of the time.
Thc candidato for graduation can present himself at
any time, and receive rda degree as Boon aa qualified.
Li case a student should hold a scholarship and not be I
able to attend lectures, it can be transferred to another,
thus preventing any loss.
Parents, guardians or friends of students wishing to ]
purchasa^cholarships for them a year or more before
their attendance at the University,. can secure them by
advancing one-half the price and paying the balance
when the student enters. Physicians and benevolent
men can bestow great benefit upon poor young men by
presenting them a scholarship, and thus enabling them
to obtain an honorable profession.
