SATURDAY HORNING, JANUARY 12,' ISOTT LOCAL MATTERS. To OUR SUBSCRIBERS.-We would call the atten? tion of thoBO who^jire indebtod to UR throughout tiio country, that tho old year is closing aud thoir accounts are not yot settled. Tho price of sub? scription is not large, and will not bo missed from thoir plothoric pockets. Tho first of January has long been celebrated as a div est apart for closing old accounts, and wo would not havo our friends depart from this timo-honorod custom. Money is the motivo power of ovcry enterprise, and news? papers aro no oxcoption, ?ind wo respectfully ask our country subBcr.bers to cash up and commence the now year with a clear record. CHARLESTON AND SAVANNAH RAILROAD. -At a meoting of tho Diroetors of tho Havannah and Charleston Railroad Company, held yesterday, Mr. JOHN S. BVAN was olectc? General Superintendent. TEE FARMER for February, has beon sent us by the publishers, Messrs. ELLIOTT & SHIELDS, of Bichmond. Contents varied and interesting, as usual. THE NEW CASKET is a handsome collection of sacred music, edited and published by Prof. Gr. O. ROBINSON. For salo by Mr. H. SOOLU?O. Many of the best gems in this Casket aro cut,-composed we should have said,-by Prof. ROBINSON. MAYOR'S COBBT, January ll.-Tue business this morning was unimportant, and consequently we have enly to content ourselves with expressing gratification at the continued good order with which the city is blessod. TEX BOPER HOSPITAL, for nearly two years nuder rnilitary occupation, we aro ploosed to learn, with? in the lost few days, has been restored to its right? ful owners, the Trustees appointed by the Medical Society of South Carolina. The Hospital is now open for the reception of patients. Dr. WK. C. HORLBECB. is tho Surgeon, and Dr. J. FORD PBIO LEAB the Physician of the institution. THE Fernandina (Fla.) Courier says : "Wo learn from persons living in the interior that the tide of emigration to this State just now is unprecedented in her history. A gentleman informed us, a few days since, that he occupied twenty-sevon wagons in one company, con taming-emigrants and their household gods, all bound for Marion County. The most of thc so families aro from South Caro? lina." . DEATH OF AN EXPERIENCED SHAPMABTJBB.-The Philadelphia i jrs publish a report of the arrival bolnvr that city of tho schooner Alba, from Boston, and it is stated that her captain and first officer hod been washed overboard and lost. This unfor? tunate accident has deprived of life Capt. BEUREN AD AUB, who, for near twenty years, has been sail? ing out of this port, principally in the Philadelphia trade. Capt. ADAMS was a competent officer, and as a friend was generous and amiable, with a heart large enough at all times to induce bim to afford his aid to the friendless and unfortunate. IMPROVEMENT.-The paving of East Bay has awakened an emulation among tho denizens of the wharves, and they have commenced operations by depositing sevorsl cart loads of cobble stones on the street. So fax Atlantic Wharf is tho only one thus blest; but the good effects of this dress? ing, when once seen, will ho soon appreciated, and the other localities will not bo backward in availing themselves of it. The lost rains have made thc mud thicker, deeper and slushier than it has ever been for years, and harsh measures were necessary to restore the streets to a proper sense of their dignity. Tho stones have proved very efficacious, and foot passengers and vehicles can now pass without danger of swamping or stalling. Atlantic Wharves have always boen foremost in tho march of improvement, and tho recent measures they have adopted to rescue their name from reproach, show that they have not retrograded. SERIOUS ACCIDENT_Mr. C. F. B. BREUER, a compositor of this office, while passin : through the composing room last night, with a lighted candle in bis hand, inadvertently walked to an open trap-door and fell through (tho distance of one story) to the basement. His moans soon at? tracted attention, and the services of the Dra. ROBERTSON being called in he was promptly cared for. In falling ho must have struck upon a por? tion of the press, as his skull was injured and his left shoulder badly fractured. An examination proved that the skull was not fractured, although there was a severo wound on the scalp ; but tho injuries were such as would confino him to tho house for two months. His wounds were dressed by Dr. ROBERTSON, and his shoulder put in place, but the nature of the fracture was such that it occasioned intense pain, and will require the greatest care to perfoct a cure. It is fortunate that Mr. BREMER only glanced upon the press, for if he had fallen upon its inequalities and projec? tions his death would have been instant. There are few typos who were not well acquaint? ed with Mr. BREMER. His genial humor and friendly manner made him-many friends, and his unfortunate accident will bo universally deplored EMIGRATION.-Tho Land of Flowers, os of old, is still the El Dorado, and the Peninsular State bas apparently lost none of her attractions. The sons cf BAU, influenced by inducements offered them, or dazzled by dreams of bananas and other spon? taneous fruit, are flocking to that land of promise in hordes. Florida papers speak glowingly of the advantages to be obtained by thia emigration, and are exultant over tho increase, to their laboring classes. By far the larger number of these emigrants come from South Carolina, and principally from the upper districts, and the papers from those sec? tions are complaining of tho exodus. Nearly every steamer that leaves here for Florida carries several hundred of these dusky travellers, and the cry is "still they go." On their last trips .tho Dictator and Emilie carried about 400 each to the flowery paradise, and tho same number left last night on the Dictator. Africa is evidently on the qui vive, and Florida having stretched out her hand, tho summons is gladly obeyed. "Variety is the spice of life," and Attic's sons evidently believe the proverb, for the travellers aro in the highest spirits, and anticipate unnumbered blessings to result from their move. We hope they will never regret it, and that their future may be as pleasant as the time they spent in the old plantation home. MAN TRAPS.-In olden times these diabolical in? ventions were considered necessary to keep in? truders at a distance and to preservo property from poachers ; but with all their ingenuity, our fathers were never capable of constructing pits in the road that would deceive and entrap even those who walked boldly and feared no a vii. The march of improvement has accomplished wonders, and it has been left to tho present generation to bring the system of pitfalls to a science, compared to which all former efforts wero but as child's play. The great fire of '61 afforded an excellent oppor? tunity to develop and exhibit this*'science. For? merly, as if ashamed of their deeds, the owners of these pits covered them with a grating, which was some protection to the passenger ; but, aloa 1 old things have passed away, and under the new regime these open cellars confront ns boldly, and it requires a thorough knowledge of the topography of thc region to poss through it unscathed. PAYNE and P ARKER'S plats are now of no avail, and unless the city authorities would have the burnt district suryeyed and hugo crosses or some other appropriate symbol (gas lamps, for in? stance) erected to warn the unwary, the dearth of items will not long continue. It is true that the most objectionable of these openings have been filled up, but it has been done hurriedly, and their plunge is still rather sudden for those who are net fond of excitement. As a gymnastic performance these involuntary movements might-bo applauded, and indeed do af? ford amusement to all except the bruised Bufferer, and he is consolingly told " 'tis better to grin than to growl." Even the old prcvorb to "look before yon leap'' is so much wholesome advice thrown away-for, in the gloom of night, the few gas lamps only shine Like the ignis Jatuus, and lure the traveller to his doom. WO have heard it stated that our City Fathers design applying tho "multi? plying" principle" to their street lamps, and it is ar? dently hoped by the cellar sufferers that, in order to test it thoroughly, they will increase the num? ber of lights. . Our ways were never ways of pleasantness, but now they are worse' than a blind paih, and we grope along, stumbling over loose bricks, and an? ticipating every moment to be hurled into some cavernous space, where Our cries will not be heard by the distant watchman, and there will be no arm to save. The Board of Health should at once lake the matter in hand, cr fheb?ls of mortality will soon be trebled, and though the patent arms and legs on exhibition in King street are perfect models, yet "distance lends enchantment to tho Trew," and wo would prefer nearing those wo brought inti tho world with os. In consideration of thoso circumstances, and es pecially that it is very distasteful for those wh< have boon in "the imminent deadly broach" t< come homo and dio by tailing in a ditch, wo woulc call tho attention of tho authorities to tho disre? putable condition of some of tho sidewalks, anc pray, in behalf of bruised and shattered humanity, that they bo built on a lovol principle-tho prosont undulations being neither picturesque or agree? able. PEDESTRIANISM.- By another notice, it will be seen that Mr. JOHN SHEPPARD, who has already mode his mark by walking one hundred milos in one hundred hours, now proposes to undertake tho herculean task of walking one thousand miles in one thousand hours. As the last performance was a severo tax apon his energies, he has decided, according to tho rules of sporting men, to go in training for this momentous enterprise. The pro? gramme for tho one thousand mile tramp will be to walk ono milo in every hour and if the per? former only occupies ten minutes to the mile, tho remainder of the hour is at his disposal. If ho is a sensible man ho will manage it so as to have some portion of the night for sleep, and by that means can accomplish his self-imposed task with? out much difficulty. A WONDERFUL MICROSCOPE;-The editor of the New York Sunday School Advocate (Rov. DANIEL WISE, D. D.) says: The simplicity, cheapness, and great mairnifying power of the celebrated Craig Microscope, struck me with surprise. When I was examining a liv's ero by its aid, and was struck with wonder at the skill and power of the Creator which is displayed in its structure. When I saw a statement in an advertisement that this microscope magnified one hundred diameters, or ten thousand times, and could be bought for $2.50,1 thought it was one of tho many humbugs of the hour, for I had paid $20, for a microscope not long before. But now I find it to be a really valuable instrument, which I should like to seo introduced into the families of our readers, in place of the manifold useless toys which plea?o for an hour and then are destroyed. This microscope would both amuse and instruct them, and I adviso every boy and girl who wishes to know tho wonders which lie in itttle things to save his money until he has $2.75, and send it to George Meade, Racine, Wisconsin, and you will promptly receive this beautiful new mioroacope by I moil, postage paid. CAUTION.-LEUCOPOEBTIC LOTION.-It is now positively ascertained that this Lotion is the same which was first used by the celebrated adept, CAC- ! LIOSTRO. and who, by imprudence in its use, caused a serious result. As a cosmetic tho Parisian Ia- j dies were enthusiastic in its praise until an old Marquise, well stricken in years, anxious for per- j sonal improvement, procured and used it for two months os a bath, when she gradually assumed the appearance of a woman of thirty. Being charmed ? with this success, she determined to experiment still further. She secluded herself, and remained | for two months longer alone in a dark chamber, still using freely this wonderful lotion. Her attend? ants became alarmed at the silence of her apart- j tnents, forced the doors, and found her changed into a lovely infant of apparently six months old. Used imprudently, it is dangerous ; cautiously, it performs faithfully its promise. THROAT AFFECTIONS-A physician, writing from Newfane, New York, speaking of the beneficial ef? fects resulting from the use of "Brown's Bron? chial Troches," says : "For alleviating that hor? rid irritation only felt by those who have suffered from any Bronchial Affection, and for Hoarseness ?nd Sore Throat too, lam free to confess (though C am on M. D.) they answer oil you claim for them." To avoid disappointment, bo sure to ob? tain the genuine "Brown's Bronchical Troches." WE REFER to JOHN COMMINS, NO. 137 Meeting street, where he offers U. S. Government harness md saddles, little used, at one-fourth their original :ost: four-horse set harness, complete, at $27; fine imbalance harness, complote, for one horse, at MO (will suit for buggy, omnibus and light wagon); ot prime bridles and bits at $1. vrs4 -o- * MOTHERS 1-In se-'ecting your children s toilet articles, place COLGATE'S Soap at tho head.

Whoever says that dyspepsia is incurable, tells a hat ia to say, makes an egregious mistake. More than en thousand aggravated cassa have been cored by HOS CETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS, while the number hat have been prevented from coming to a head, by tho ame means, is incalculable. IB Winter and early Spring, rben the appetite is sometimes too vigorous for the omfort and safety of the stomach, indigestion is most ore valent and most distressing. Is the appetite to be talked io accommodate the digestive organe? Not so; or then the frame would lack its due proportion of nu rlment. The thing to be done is to BZBXKQTBZN THE TOMA CH, tone the liver, and put the bowels in perfect irder. Nothing will do thli so effectually, so rapidly, so [Uietly, so pleasantry as H03TETTER'S BETTERS. This lOtent preparation trims and balances the system, and lothes it, as it were, with defensive armor. Chronic lyspepsla, liver complaint, and fever and ague, are never mown to attack those who are wise enough to invoke lie aid of this great preventive. 6 January 7 PUBLIC NOTICE.

ANCIENT FINS: AKTS. To tte Editor Af the New Torie Herald : Respecting the relics of porcelain ware found In the ste exhumations at Herculaneum, which have been for? warded to the Society of Antiquities in London, whereof 'our correspondent says the bottle resembling DRAKE'S PLANTATION BTTXXBS waa undoubtedly placed among be ruins by the agent of Dr. Daaxx, we desire to state hat he is incorrect in every respect. If a bottle waa bund there bearing our lettering, the language of the in clent pW"1? waa different from the accepted litera ure of that day. Our agent has other business than this n Europe, and has not been in Italy at all. No doubt americans carry Plantation Bitters to Borne; but trying o impose upon a Society of Antiquarians in this way teems quite useless, and we do not appreciate the Joke, lt ls unsee seary for us to spend money in Europe while we are unable to supply the demand for these celebrated Bitters here.

Still it will afford, du? ring tho process of decomposition, about three per cent of Ammonia. Tho Oil (which is romarLably abundant) though not generally reckoned among Manures, being hero associated with other less stable animal principles, cannot fall of adding to tho value of tho mixture, espe? cially on light soils. The insoluble Phosphate being thoroughly organized and. at the samo time, minutely divided, is also well adapted to a gradual appropriation by the plant According to the present sample, COE'S SUPER PHOSPHATE is a judiciously and faithfully manufac? tured Manure, and will not disappoint thoso who will givo it a triaL Even if employed alone, I should expect highly remunerative resulte.

WHILE IT CONTAINS LESS AMMONIA, IT HAS nearly twice the quantity of Phosphate of Lime, 16 per cent of which is immediately soluble. Its effects on Cotton the past season have, in many instances, ox ceUcd Peruvian Guano. It has in no case proved less ac? tive in thc carly growth.-of tho crop. When drought in tervenes thc crop does not suffer from its use as is the casa with Peruvian Guano. By reason of the presence in it of so large a per cent of Phosphate of Limo its uso im? proves the soil to an extent that cannot be realized from Peruvian Guano. Every cargo of this Guano is subjected to rigid inspec? tion analysis, and ls sold ou a basia cf actual value. The undersigned.
