FRIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 25, 1807.
LOCAL MATTERS.
TELEGRAPHIO BOSH. - Mr. RASDALL, ol" Pa.,
said : "Oh bosh." This very important dispatch
will bo found in our telegraphic column; and wo
hope none of our roadors will neglect its perusal.
Tho entire paragraph, of which tho above is au ex?
tract, will convey a pretty good idea of tho ameni?
ties of Congressional debate.
INCREASE OP BANK CAPITAL.-Since tho publica?
tion of our articlu on this subject, in yesterday's
issue, wo havo been informed that a project is on
foot to organizo another banking association in
this city, with a cash capital of $300,000, and power
to increase to $500,000. Parties elsewhere have
promised that if $50,000 or moro bo subscribed
hore they will subsribe the rost of the capital re?
quired. Tho plan moots with vcry general ap?
proval from our merchants and men of business
who have keenly feit tho great want of incrcascl
banking facilities, so necessary to the trade and
prosperity of our city. Tho subscription hst will
soon be opened, when om- citizens will havo an
opportunity of subscribing for tho stock.
TUE PANORAMA.-Thc wonders of Heaven still
continue to draw large audiences. Tho angels are
moro thnn angelic, while his Satanic Majesty might
bo mistaken for a fine-looking fellow. Paradise is
a very lovely placo, but the Plains of f loavon are
of tho earth, earthy. Wo cannot help, when look?
ing upon theso scenes, thinking how much better
off we would bo if EVE had not transgressed. But,
if the painting bo coirect, it was a groat tempta?
tion, lor they were splendid apples. Those thai
are familiar with the Book of Revelations will easi?
ly recognize the scenes depicted in tho Apocalypse;
and those whose religious education haB been ne?
glected, by listening to the lecturer, who is thor?
oughly au fail on the subject, eau readily appro
ciato the skill of the artist.
VALUABLE-EXPORTS.-s'everal largo and valuable
cargoes of cotton have been cleared at our Custom
House during tho week; among them we noticed
the ship Nereus loaded for Liverpool, by Messrs.
WILLIS & CHISOLM, with a cargo of 65 bales of
Sea Island cotton and 2985 bales of upland cotton;
the British bark "The Queen," by Messrs. R.
MURE & Co., with 309 bales Sea Island and 1472
bales upland cotton. Tho bark Tbscano, Captain
DELANO, for Liverpool, by Messrs. STREET BRO'S ?
Co., with 801 bales Sea Island and 1909 bales up?
land cotton. This last cargo is considered one of
the largest over put in a ship of this size, and
weighs 913,917 pounds. It was stored by a well
known colored stevedore, Joe Edmondston.
ROBERT BURNS.-ROBERT BURNS, the great Scot
tish poet, first saw the h'ght on the 25th of Janna
ry, 1759, in a small cottage near thc Eridge of
Doon, two mile3 from Ayr. Born in poverty and
raised to a lifo of toil, which his poet spirit could
not brook, his imprudence soon terminated in
early death.
It is singular that even in his obscurity BURNS
jocularly anticipated that his birthday would com6
to be noted among other remarkable events. Ho
proved to bo a true prophet, for on the last cen
tenary his birth was celebrated in every land where
the English tongue is spoken. His name is now
like a household word, and there aro few Scotch?
men who do not speak of ROBBIE BOENS with love
and veneration.
'Giber poets, after death, have tablets erected to
their memory; but hiB name is engraved on the
heart, and his brother bards of every subsequent
age have delighted to do him honor. His birth is
thus beautifully described by THOMAS MILLEU ;
"Upon a stormy winter night,
Scotland's bright star first rose in Bight,
Beaming upon as wild a sky
As ever to prophetic eye
Proclaimed that nature bad on band
Some work to glorify tho land ;
W'thin a lonely cot of clay.
That night her great creation lay."
MATOE'S COURT, January 24.-Saffron Johnson, J<
au interesting youth of a much darker color than ^
the golden huo his name would intimate, was ?,
brought up for stealing a board from ono <of the h
crossings in the upper wards, and, in consequence, 3*
was treated by his Honor to five days* board in tho ^
Guard House, where ho will havo an opportunity ai
of tasting tho "sweet waters*', of the city, and lo
gratifying his palate with delightful mor$ols of tho P
original bre ad fruit. M
Abram Hill, a representative of the Georgia tli
darkey, who had arrived yesterday in search of W:
his brother, but failed to find bim, and having no ^
money took lodgings in tho street, where he was tl
picked up by a policeman, was discharged with a tl
warning from tho Mayor that ho must find hie sj
brother or find work, and that ho must not seo j{
him again in the Guard House, or ho would "bo ti:
committed. n!
Washington Griffith, a man of glossy black, who a'
had been to a lall and taken, two drinks and In
waltzed; and then took two more nips and settled ^
a fight that was about occurring betweon three of 5^
"tho ladies" in the room, which afforded him so wj
much self-satisfaction that ho went into tho street hr
and became "obstropolous," from whence he was w<
conveyed to tho Guard House, and this morning w,
fined $5 for his .'pleasures of a night." o'i

KENNEDY, extricating himself, struck him a blow tu

The evidence hore closed on the part of tho pro,
cution, and tho defonco haring none to offer,
o argument was openod"by J. PERRONEAU GreuES,
aq., who feelingly referred to the uncultured na?
rc of the prisoner, and that of most of his clas?
io, suddenly freed, wero left to meet tho world
th those faults and failings that before were
telterod by thoir former masters, these too often
,'iug such as would render the parties amenable
the law. Ho spoke of thc mme as one that
juld be easily committ.d by auy one, white or
ack, who had only Ibo moral culture of thc pri
ner, and he appealed to tho jury to judge of the
lilt or innocence of the prisoner by these motives
id only to render their verdict, after a duo consid
ation of the provocation that led to the commis
o u of the act.
J. E. BURKE, Esq., followed, and explained thc
ituro'of minder, homicide and manslaughter,
lotiug from different authorities, and showing,
om tho evidence advanced, that the provocation
ns great, Dantzlcr heing a large strong man, and
med with a stick, with which he intimidated
;nkins, who told him to keep back, and the shoot
g was clearly justifiablo homicide.
Thc first two gentlemen were young praetition

.ce of clearness and knowledge of thc different
gal points that will ultimately tend to give them
high position at tho Bur.
Attorney General HAYNE argued tho .-aso for thc

ie defence.
Thc J migo summed np the eviden 'c and charged 1
io Jury, who returned a verdict ol' "Guilty of (

ST. PAUL'S PAY.-The festival of tho Conversion
of ST. PAUL wa.-j instituted by tho Church on tho
25th ol' January, iu gratitude for so miraculous
and important an instance of tho Divino .Power.
It was for soino timo observed as a hobday in most
of the churches of the West, and is still a festival
of thc Anglican Churches.
The day had also a celebrity of another descrip?
tion, I ho origin of which is uuknown. It has been
an article of eonslaut belief in "Western Europo j
during tho middle- ages, and oven down to our own \
time, that the whole character of tho coming year
is prognosticated by the condition of the weather . t
on tliis day, and this is tho more singular, as the ! <
day itself was ono of those to which tho prophets
gavo the title of unlucky days.
The prophesies regarding this day aro to be
found in quaint verse, either Latin or English; one
of these most commonly referred to was as fol- <
lows : *
"If St Paul's day be fair and clonr, ^
It does betido a happy year; . f
But if it chanco to snow or rain,
Then will bo dear all kinds of crain;
If clouds or mists do dark the sky,
Groat store of birds and beasts -hall die;
And if tho winds do fly aloft,
Then war shall vex tho kingdom oft"
It is not known if this day still enjoys its former
reputation, but if our readers have the patience J
md will take notes, they will bo able to judge for
-hemselves by January, 18G8.
ACEKOWLEDGMENT. - Tho vegetable kingdom
las boon so often referred to by naturalists,, that
vo have boen forced to behove that it is a govern
nent ie fado; but yesterday our convictions were
itrengthened and our opinions confirmed by the | .
ntroduction into oui1 ofiico of a few of its regal
opiesentatives. A monster cabbage, of huge pro
jortions, attended by a body guard of four gigjjan
ic turnips, proclaimed to tho world that if co?ton

or there were more things in the earth than were

THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE GAB MULTIPLIER.
t tho laBt session of City Council the Committee
n Lighting tho City presented a thorough report
n tho proposition mndo to that body by Mr. POL?
ANSKI, of applying tho multiplying systom to tho
trect lamps. Tho Coinmittoe considered the Bub
>ct both theoretically and practically, and hoing
anvinced, from its working in those buildings,
hero it has boen tcstod, that great economy can
c practiced without diminishing tho sizo of the
ght, and they have given it their unqualified ap
roval. They havo also recommended to Council
lat tho number of street lamps bo increased from
25 to 1000, and that thc same principle bo applied
i the metres of tho public buildings, euch as .he
rphati House. Alms Houao, and others.
Although this report was postponed for further
jusideration to tho next regular meeting, there is i .*.>
o doubt that tho action will be favorable. Tho W
.ant of street lumps has long been a nuisance wi?
er which we have groaned iu darkness, aud tho
;lion nf Council is looked for with anxiety by all
ho have tho welfare bf thc city at heart. An in- I ^
ovation of this description, that combines econo
ly and utility, should bo instantly adoptod, oape
ally aa in tho presont case it i¬ an expori
icut, but has boen proved a'succu3s.
When Mr. POZNANSKI became tho owner, of this
fitent he was so convinced of ita ultimate adop
oii, that he declined to accept any profit arising
om its introduction in tho soveral buildings that
ave tested it, wishing rather to establish the
orth of tho invention by practical experiments,
ad thus furnishing a convincing proof of tb*- "
3iieficial results to bo obtained by tho adoption of I?
is proposition. ~
Tho principio by which tho waste of gas is di- *
mushed at least 30 por cent, has been boforo ox
laincd, but as Mr. POZNANSKI desigus soon pub
(shing a pamphlot on the new system of carburefc
ng ga?, which will iuitiato our citizens more
miplotoly i.ito the proci.se advantages to bo tle
vod from tho uso of his chemical apparatus, wo
ifraiu from commenting on tho subject, and refer
as consumers who arc anxious fur information to
io forthcoming work.
WE HAVE often been askod why it is that PEOTO
AL BALM lias proved such a success. Tho only
^ason wo can give is thal it is a medicine which
as proved by test to bo suporior to any prcpara
on known for tho relief of Bronchial diBoasos. Por

PHOSPHATE on the market the last season, I submitted
t for analysis to Professor Shepard, of the South Caro
ina Medical College, who fully endorsed it, and his
minion has now been verified by actual experiment by
mr own Planters, whose testimony I have of the su?
perior excellency of this Phosphate, especially in the cul
