SHERM AN, a mute, and a native of Virginia, is in tho city, endeavoring, through selling books and other articles, to obtain a living for himself, mother, and sistor. Ho is spoken of very highly by tho Virginia papers, and we hopo ho may bo received kindly by thoso whom he calls upon. His only brother was killed in tho Confederate army. MAYOR'S COURT, January 30_The only case brought before bis Honor this morning, was that of two young mon who had just boen rolioved from prison, whore they had boen confined as witnesses, and who had boen eclobratiug their discharge by indulging in "pino top" and pugilistic exercises in the street, for which they wero fined $3 each. Not having tho exact chango about them, they con? sented to spend three days in one bf the coila of tho Guard House, so as to enjoy a chango of sccno.. COURT or GENERAL "SESSIONS AND COMMON PLEAS. -Judge T. N. DAWKINS presiding.-In tho caso of I LAWRENCE P. WITSEIX VS. JNO. S. RI GOS, tho Jury returned a verdict of $2500 for the plaintiff. This was a case to recovor tho price of some laud sold by tho defendant before the evacuation. EDWARD MABZYCK CS. THOS. CORKING S-Suit in Trovor. The Jury awarded damages of $150 to plaintiff. This caso occupied the attention of the Court thc whole morning, and no other business was transacted. DISTRICT COURT-Judgo LOGAN presiding.-The following cases wore disposed of : Tho Stato cs. Isaac Grant;-Larcenv. Thc At? torney-General entered a nolpros., and the prison? er was dischargod. Tho Stato vs. Susan Bowers-Assault, and Resist? ing an Officer. T. G.

SHEPLEY.-We learn that on Monday night lost tho steamer Gen. Sheploy was burned at a dock on Ossabaw, where sho was taking in cotton and planters' supplies. She left herc on Saturday morning to take ?way cotton and material belonging to Captain Fly, ? Northern man, planting here. While off from the landing she was ses on firo aft and completely burned. Capt. Rosso, commando! of tho steamer, and lady, and Capt. Fly and Indy, with the ship's crew, barely escaped, being rescued by the steamer H. M. Cool. The boat was, we understand, not insured. She was consigned to C. L. Colby & Co., who, we aro informed, were partial owners. The incendiarism, we are assured, is attributed to freedmen, who, misguided by fanatics, had been led to believe that the steamer was designed for kidnapping purposes, with a Cuban or similar des? tination. THE LATE COLONEL HATNE.-Tlie New Orleans Times recently published a very appreciative and complimentary editorial upon the late Col. HAYXE. In closing it says: Col. Kayne, though not first in the front rank, belonged to a class of d?*fcT?guished mon in Caro? lina, all of whom have passed off tho stage; to seme of whom marble memorials havo been raised, but whose Uves are their most illustrious monu? ment, ever present to tho memory of the living generation..-When or whore shall wo again be? hold, in the sunny land of the South, such gifted men, such elegant scholars, such accomplished orators-several of whom were statesmen of tho first order-as Lowndes, Calhoun, Hamilton, the Haynes, Legare, Preston, Cheves, Butler, Turn? bull, Nott, Harper, Huger, Grimke, Elliott, -horn well, McDuffie, Potigru and O'Neall, the mention of whose namos awakens a thrill of pride within the bosom-a satisfaction that humanity, in its strug tles upward, should ever havo reached such eights as they attained, mirgled with regret that 6o much genius, learning, statesmanship, patriot? ism and virtue should be forever lost to the world, and especially to the timos in which wo live ? Will South Carolina CYor_again be able to boast of a. race of such men ? We hope she may, but we fear not. At present, we can only say that she is great, nay, almost unparalleled, iii her memories, and that it is perhaps enough for her present glory to look up to Heaven, and pointing to tho stars which shed their lustre over her past history, to be able to say: "These aro oura !" THE HASLCN TROUPE.-This famous combination of gymnasts, athletes, tight-rope dancers, jugglers and pantomimists, will honor our city with a visit, and will givo their first entertainment in the Hi? bernian Hall t -.light. The HANLON Brothers aro by far tho priLoipal performers in the troupe, al? though it embraces artists of no moan celebrity. Immense crowds havo sttended their exhibitions in evory city they havo visited, and the press is loud in its praises of their startling and wonderful feats. The remarkable celerity with which tho brothers HANLON perform their flying leaps, catching by the feet, knees, or hands, and recovering them? selves just at the nick of time, is euch as to strike th p beholder with ornazerjaent. The "Leap for Life," which is one of their most difficult performances, is accomplished in the most grucoful manner ; and, when every breath is suspended, looking for the instantaneous de? struction of the daring acrobat, he reaches his goal, and stands in safety, confident of deserving the applause meeted to him. They are accom? panied by Professor W. TANNER and his wonder? ful troupe of dogs and monkeys, whose per? formances aro a prominent attraction in tho entertainment. Senorita Ros ETTI, a danseuse and tight-rope performer, Monsieur HENRI AOOURT?, 'and M'Uc AUGUSTINE, dancers and pantomimists, constitute thc remainder of the troupe. These artists have a world-wide reputation, and have performed in tho largost European theatres with great eclat. Praise, under such circumstances, is needless, and a description of their stupendous feats impossible. They will havo to be seon in or? der to bo appreciated, and one visit is but the pre? lude to many. In consequence of the withdrawal of the MiUon ian Tableaux, the Hanlon Troupe are enabled to commence their performances much sooner than was anticipated. In addition to their evening en? tertainments thoy propose giving a Matinee on Saturday afternoon, which is designed exclusively fer schools and children. A raro opportunity is now afforded our citizens of seeing this wondorful Troupe, and the only re? gret is that, in consequence of the absence of a theatre, their movements will be somewhat cramped, but thoy have availed themselves of ?every facility, and confidently expect that the Charleston public will accord to thom the hearty well done, so liberally bestowed in other cities. THE SAVANNAH STRIKE has apparently reached ' ita climax. Tho News and Herald, in giving an account of the arrests mado, says : The trouble which has existed among the steve- I . dores in relation to the tax on badges came near ending soriously yesterday. Some few men had paid I the tax, and were engaged in loading and unload- I ng the steamships Virgo and General Barnes. It tppears that those refusing to comply with the or I bnance had resolved ripon extremo measures, and r yere disposed to prevent by force those wishing 1 Ko work from doing so; and it was given out pub iely that no one would be allowed to go to work inder the'bluff after 2 o'clock yesterday. ! As thc hour approached for resuming labor, tho rowd began collecting, and by two_o'clock tho Bay i it the eastern end was thronged with freedmen. I the malcontents appeared to be actinsr according Ito method, and no one was allowed to go down the |steps leading to tho wharves. In anticipation, an effective force of police offi? cers wero stationed there, and shortly after two 'o'clock the whole body were marshalled clown under command of General Robert Anderson, Chief of Police. After disposing his mon in different places, tho order was given to clear tho passage? ways leading to the vessels, and some of the ne? groes refusing, wore proruptly arrested and march tto the rear of the officers. Ono white man, ose name wo do not caro to inmortalizo in typo, j o bad made himself conspicuous in counselling j id advising the negroes, was also marched to tho f jar just in time to save his head from violent col- j I' sion with a poHcoman'si.billy. I A fow of tho negroes who attempted to resist 9 ie officers had tobo used rather roughly, and it | '? ras rumored that a rese?e would bo attempted on I 1 lie way to the barracks; but there was really no : >un dation for iba report. Soon, after the arrests i bin gs wore a more quiet aspect, and we do not riticipate any more trouble. AUCTION SALK OT SUGAR.-The attention of deal? ers is invited to the auction sale of grocery sugars by Messrs. J. A. ENSLOW & Co., at 10} o'clock, this porning, at their store, No. 125 East Bay. PUBLIC DRIVES.-Charleston stands alone among her Histor cities a 8oli taxy instance of a corpora lion not possessing a suitable- placo for a public drive. In thc ?ays of auld lang syne tho Moot? ing strcot, King strcot and Butlcdgo strcot roads woro thc resort of the gay and happy who woro fortunato enough to possess a vehicle, or to own a horse. Tho summer days were then a halcyon poriod, when the plank road was hourly crowded with a moving throng, who gladly escaped from the heat and dust of the city to breathe tho puro country air, and be lulled to forgetfulness by tho rustling of tho pines. Now this is all changed ; it is true tho air is tho same, and the music of tho trees as melodious as ever, but thc plank road is a misnomer ; its foundations arc gone, and its glory has departed. Owing either to they neglect and misusago occa? sioned by the war, or to tho raids made upon it for firewood during that period, it suffered extensive? ly, and would now compare favorably with tho far famod cordoroy roads of our ancestors. It is true that it still offers an admirable field for homeo? pathic practice, and any dyspoptic or nervous individual who will endure a day's jolting over its inequalities, can return home a new man. Noono who has any regard for life, limb, or even comfort, presumes to drive upon tho so-called plank road in its present dilapidated condition, but a sido cut has been extemporized, and th ? sand or mud of that is far preferable to the ground and lofty tum? bling experienced on thc other. _ It is high timo that somo stops were taken to improve tho condition of these roads. If tho city is too poor (which is unfortunately thc coso), let it bo mado a public enterprise. It is truo that, owing to tho location of CharJoston, the space is very limited and. the drives few in number, but this will only entail less expenco and render those few moro popular than evor. Butlcdgo, King and Mooting street roads aro tho main avenuos to tho city, a large portion of them lying within the city limits, and should, by all means, be roscuo 1 from tl-o shamo and reproach that has fallon upon them. Tho Rutledge road was never blessed with tho improvement of planks, and row presents a dreary waste of sand that no one would encounter for pleasure; the others ore several shades bettor, but a drivo upon them is far from being tho acmo of happiness. Augusta is noted for the beauty of its drives, and-'tbo roads leading to its suburbs arc always crowded by the pleasure-seekers. Tho principal ono of these is a turnpike, which is kept in excellent order by tho small toll exacted; but ali are in splendid travelling condition, and reflect credit upon tho citv. Although Charleston, from its position, has no suburbs, and tho soil is far moro sandy than that of Augusta, yet i; promises an advautage in only having three thoroughfares, and a little timely at? tention would moko these compare favorably with those of any city. The plank road has been tried as the least expensive and while now, answered tho purpose admirably; but it required frequent repairs, and when out of order was excessively dis? agreeable. In New Orloans and other places, the sholl road has been used with great success; but although thc material is abundant, it would require a vast amount, and be ultimately very oxponsivo. By far the bost paring for a road is what is usually known as tho Nickerson's. This has been in general rise in several of tho Western cities, and bas given universal satisfaction, as it requires but a t-mall outlay and is very durable. It ia composed of small squoro blocks of wood, four feet by six, laid closely together, and tho interstices filled with gravel. This pavement will last for yoars, andpro sents a far moro oven surface than one formed of cobble stones ; besides it has the o-lvontago of cheapness, especially in this country, wheio tho wood can bo procured and prepared at a small cost. A turnpike road established on these principles would not only soon pay for itself, but ultimately afford a good rcvonue for its projectors. A good road is essential to the prosperity of any city, and there uro few who need one more than Chat leeton If we wait until the city authorities are able to undertake this improvement, many years will elapse, and the road bocome daily the worse for wear. Private enterprise bas always succeeded better than that of a corporate body, and if this matter is taken in hand by our moneyed citizens, next summer will seo these old roads rejuvenated, and rejoicing in tho increased travel which their improved condition will command. THE BALTIMORE Gaoile, of Monday, January 23, has the following : SMT.TNO OF STEAMEES-THE TRACK AGAIN OPEN. -Por somo time pa?t thc city of Baltimore has suffered very seriously in consequence of all com? munication with tho rest of tua world, by water, being cut off. Several efforts were made, and at ono time with partial success, cut for the want of a boat of sufficient capacity the track closed, and all hopes of reopening it, until it should bo done by tho approach of spring, were well nigh gone. The steamer Falcon, of Mordecai's Charleston linc, several days ago moved down as far as tho Middle Ground, but there she stopped, though it was con? fidently asserted that she could easily make a track through tho ico to the opon water of tho way. Saturday morning a number of men were put to work and the ice was broken around her, and a track some two hundred feet cut out, so that she mit;ht get a start. Early iu tho after? noon, all things having been got ready, she made a start and went through the icc, fourteen inches thick, with apparent caso. Tho steamboat Metropolitan, which had boen lying in the ice near Fort McHenry. wanted assistance to get up to the city, anti the Falcon made a circle around her and relieved her so that she had no difficulty in getting up to Henderson's Wharf. The Falcon then proceeded on her way, and when last seen was near Fort Carroll, going steadly along. The steamer Patapsco followed in tho track of the Falcon, and waa going out very easiiy at four o'clock in the afternoon. The ice hoing so very thick on each side of tho track, it will not be difficult to keep it clear if a sufficient number of vessels can be passed through it to keep the water agitated. The steamer Mexican, of tho Baltimore and Liverpool Line, is ready to sail, and had steam up yesterday afternoon, but tho protracted north? west wind made the tide so low that she could not get sway from her wharf. The steamers of the Norfolk line, now that the track is opened, can, if it is deemed desirable, come up to the city. Lost night, however, was very cold, and if prompt mea? sures are not adopted to keep the track free, the harbor will attain oe sealed, to avoid which nothing should be left undone. THE Augusta Constitutionalist, in speaking of | Bishop LTX'UH, oLthis city, says : Bishop Lyuoufw the Catholic Church, will de? liver a lecture in the Gato City for the benefit of j thc poor, in the Central Presbyterian Church, on Thursday night next, at half-past seven o'clock. His subject will bo "The Tunnel of the Alps." By the way, the Bishop is docketed for a lecture in this city if we remember correctly. Tho elocutionary talents of tho Bishop are so ' well known and appreciated in his Diocese, that wo congratulate our Georgia friends upon the treat in store for them. Tho Bishop is a pleasing and im? pressive speaker, and, having a vast fand of popu? lar knowledge, can make his lectures very enter- ! taming. KINSMAN'S SALOON.-It is an old proverb that three moves are equal to a fire; but when the two are combined, the supposition would naturally be that the sufferer is ruined. With but few exceptions this theory is correct, but Mr. W. KINSMAN is one of that exceptional class. The fixa may destroy and the moves may damage, but yield he will not, and is now ranking a temporary move in order to prepare for a permanent resting place. He is now located at No. 287 Hing street, immediately above Messrs. STOLL, WEBB eic Co., arid still continues to furnish the public with thoso delicacies tu?t have made him so popular. A SECURE INVESTMENT.-Of all the many schemes for safe investments we have seen, none that im? pressed ns BO favorably, and BO perfectly fair, as the plan of the JEtna Life Insurance Company of | Hartford, Conn. What recommends it especially I is tho "non-forfeiting plan," which meets one of | the common objections often used against effecting life insurance, viz.: that in future years a change of c?rcum stances may render it inconvenient, if j not impossible, to meet the annual payments, and the insured is thereby compelled to accept the equitable value of his policy, thus sacrificing a por? tion of what be has paid. By the non-forfeiting policies the ?Etna contracts to pay tho amount insured at death or the specified time, if the annual premiums are regularly paid as they becomo duo, whother the full number of premiums have beon paid or not. And if tho in? sured, after two or more premiums have been paid, chaoses to discontinue further payments, the com? pany agrees to pay at death, or tho specified time, in proportion to tho number of premiums paid. Thus, if on a policy of 510,000 tho insured is to pity ten annual premiums and discontinues after he has paid two premiums, his policy is good for $2000. Fox further particulars our readers will consult thc advertisement, or still better, the agent in this city, JOHN B. HERIOT, JR. va 0 VEG ITT AB LE MONSTROSITIES.-We have boon pre? sented by Mr. W. HUNT, of the Four Mlle House, tv i th six ruta baga turnips of enormous size and of delicate flavor, .weighing eight pounds on an average, and cultivated by himself on his farm just out of the precincts of the city, for which he will looeive our thanks. He informed us that he ob t????d tito seed from the h ousts of THOMPSON & j BOBS, SO well known to agriculturists as always I having tho best of articles required by farmers and others whose pleasant occupation is "to dig the earth." PHOSPHATE.-Aa will bo soon, by roforenco to our columns, Mr. HOBSON makes a farther announce? ment relating to BACGH'S Raw-Bono Phosphate. We have taken some troublo to learn from planters tho 'result of their experience with the different fertilizers, and not ono with whom wo liavo con? versed with, who has tried BADOH'S Phosphate, spoke of it oxcopting in tho highest terms, and expressed prcfereuco for it over other phosphate. On tho arrival of overy cargo, Mr. ROBSON has it analyzed, so as to convince himself that each sup? ply is equal to that previously received and offored for sale. Wo learn that air. BAUOK is now in tho city, and will ho pleased to meet planters and others at tho storo of Mr. ROBSON and converso with thom. Attention is called to tho very full advertisement in another column.

Tho following ia tho report of an analysis made from a j ot now in atora: Phosphate of Lime, soluble.... ;. 8.20 Phosphate of Lime, insoluble.28.80 - 37.00 iulphate of Limo and traces of Sulphate of Ammonia, Potash, Soda and Magnesia, with some free Sulphuric Add, about. 8 ?ygrometic Water expelled at-212 degroes_ 23 Combined Water (a portion of thia belongs to the Phosphate of Lime, which waa esti? mated after its ignition; the greater part ot balance is doubtless associate I with Uto Animal Matter) and-Animal Matter. 3C Silica (Sand). ? 100.00 . Tho Annual Matter, aa might be supposed in a fertilizer i 10 largely derived from nah, la leas highly nitrogenized lian that in the Peruvian Guano. Still it will afford, clu? ing the process ot decomposition, about three per cent 11 Ammonia. The Oil (walch ls rcmarLably abundant) .hough not generally reckoned among Manures, being 1?re associated with other less stable animal principles, lannot fail of adding tc the value of the mixture, eapc Mally on light soils. The insoluble Phosphate being horougkly organized and, at the same timo, minutely li vid od, is also well adapted to a gradual appropriation by ne plant According to tho present sample, COE'S SUPER PHOSPHATE is a judiciously and faithfully manufao rured Manure, and will not disappoint those who will rive it a trial. Even if employed alono, I should expect ! ligkty remunerative results. (Signed) CHARLES UPHAM SHEPARD. Price $65 per ton of 2000 pounds. For sale by E. H.

How few there aro who are not subjoct io somo affection of the lungs or respiratory organs, who, by neglecting premonitory symptoms, aggravate tho complaint, until disease strikes its shaft*, causing inexpressible torture of tho patient, and anxiety and distress io friends. "Only a cold!" "A slight sore throat!" is the b'-?lless remarle of many when so affected. Yes ; "Only t ^old," was the thoughtless expression of thousands whom Death has marked for his prey. Forewarned-Forearmed ! shonld bo thc motto forever in the minds ol' all subject to Coughs, Colds, Catarrh, or Influenza. Words of advice should be hended by all Bul? lering from Asthma, Bronchitis, Consumption. Relief is within their reach; and, If neglected, fatal consequences ensue-a lifo of misery-a doily, hourly struggle for ex? istence. A contest in which there can bo but one victor -Death 1 Does it not appal the strongest mind, to think of the result caused by negl?ct? Then why "delay? Whstex cuso can be offered, when timely warning is sounded in your ears? When tho danger is pointed out, why not avoid tt? M.UISDEN'S PECTORAL. BAJ.II hos been used with success in nearly a million of caso i, and is endorsed by tho Medical Faculty as the most i? rompt and effica? cious remedy that scientific reseavjn hos discovered, to relieve and cure all cases of Co ii.'hs. Colds, Influenza, and Consumption, if the COSJ is not beyond all hope. Even when tho sufferer is i i the last stages, ne will lind relief by using this prep iratiou. Ono bottle will con? vince the most incredulous, that the merits of this prepa? ration are by M means exaggerated ; in fact, fall far short ol' the eulogies lies to wed upon it by thousands Mho have been cured by its .imcly use.
