f fa[ f}aiJl| THURSDAY MORNING, JANUARY 31,1867. LOCAL MATTERS. THE NORTHERN MAILS have been BO irregular rf late, that we have failed to receive our rogular rorrospondenco and late exchanges. This, there? fore, must bo- our excuso for printing so littio news. We hope that things will get better in a day or two. THE VERY excellent Band of the Cth Infantry serenadod the guests of thc Mills Houso last night. PERSONAL.-CHAULES W. SHERMAN, a mute, and a native of Virginia, is in the city, endeavoring, through selling books and other articles, to obtain a living for himself, mother, and sister. Ho is spoken of very highly by tho Yirgiuia papors, and we hopo he may bo received kindly by those whom he calls upon. His only brother was killed in the Confederate army. MAYOR'S COUBT, January 30.-Tho only case brought before his Honor thia morning, was that of two young men who had just been relieved from prison, where they had been confined as witnesses, and who had beon celebrating their discharge by indulging in "pine top" and pugilistic exorcises in tho street, for which thoy wero fined S3 each. Not haying the exact change about them, they con? sented to spend three days in one of the cells of the Guard House, so is to enjoy a change of scone. COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS AND COMMON PLEAS. -Judge T. N. DAWKINS presiding.-In the caso of LAWRENCE P. WITSELL VS. JNO. S. BIOGS, the Jury returned a verdict of $2500 for the plaintiff. This was a ca ie to recover tho price of some land sold by the defendant bofore tho GvacuafBp. EDWARD MABZYCK vs. THOS. COBKINOS-Suit in Trover. The Jury awarded damages of $150 to plaintiff. This case occupied the attention of the Court . the whole morning, and no other business was transacted. DISTRICT COUBT-Judgo LOGAN presiding.-The following cases were disposed of: The State vs. Isaac Grant-Larceny. The At? torney-General entored a not pros., ana the prison? er was discharged. The State vs. Susan Bowers-Assault and Resist? ing an Officer. T. G. Barker, Esq., for the defence. Not guilty. ft The State vs. T. J. Kennedy-Assault and Bat? tery. Wm. Rhett, Esq., for the defence. Not guilty. The State vs. Jacob Green-Larceny. R. W. Seymour for the defence. Discharged on his own recognizance. The State rcs.-Hagar Jones-Assault and Battery. Nol pros. The State vs. Edward Thompson-Fais 3 Im? prisonment. R. W. Seymour, Esq., for the defence. Guilty. This case was ono of great peculiarity. It ap? peared that the plaintiff had been assaulted by the defendant, who forced him to deliver money, and subsequently subjected him toan imprisonment on the alleged pretext of owing him a bill. THE SAVANNAH New J and Herald, of yesterday morning has. the following: BUEN INO OF THE GEN. SHEPLEY.-We loam that on Monday night last the steamer Gen. Shepley was burned at a dock on Oasabaw, where she was taking in cotton and planters' supplies. She left here on Saturday morning to tako away cotton and material belonging to Captain Fly, a Northern man, planting herc. While off from the landing she was set on fire.afc and completely burned. Capt. Rosse, commander of the steamer, and lady, and Capt. Fly and lady, with the ship's crew, barely escaped, being rescued by the steamer H. M. Cool. The boat was, we understand, not insured. Sho was consigned to C. L. Colby & Co., who, wo are 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 KAYNE.-The New Orleans Tunes recently published a vory appreciative and complimentary editorial upon the late Col. HAYNE. In closing it says: Col. Hayne, though not first in the front rank, belonged to a class of distinguished men in Caro? lina, all of whom bavo passed off the stage; to some of whom maible memorials have been raised, but whoso lives are their most illustrious monu? ment, eyer present, to the memory of the living feneration. When or where shall we again be old, in the sunny land of the South, such gifted men, such elegant scholars, such accomplished orators-several of whom were statesmen of the first order-as Lowndes, Calhoun, Hamilton, the Haynes, Legare, Preston, Cheves, Butler, Turn? bull, Nott, Harper, Huger, Grirake, Elliott, 'i'horn well, McDaffie, Petigru and O'Neall, the mention of whose names awakens a thrill of pride within tho bosom-a satisfaction that humanity, in ' ita strug? gles upward, should ever have reached such heights as they attained, mirgled with regret that so much genius, learning, statesmanship, patriot? ism and virtue should be forever lost to the world, * and especially to the times in which wo live ? Will South Carolina, ever again be able to boast of a ?ace of 8nch men ? We hope she may, but we fear :aot. At present, we can only say that she is groat,' nay, almost unparalleled, in her memories, and that it is perhaps enough for her present glory to look up to Heaven, and pointing to the stars which shed their lustre over her past history, to be able 4o say: "These are ours !" THE HANLON TROUPE.-Thia famous combination of gymnasts, athletes, tight-rope dancers, jugglers and pantomimists, will honor our city with a visit, and will give their first entertainment in the Hi? bernian Hall to-night. The HANLON Brothers are by far the principal performers in the troupe, al? though it embraces artists of no mean celebrity. Immense crowds have attended their exhibitions in every city they have visited, and the press is loud in its praises of their startling and wonderful feats. The remarkable celerity with which the brothers HANLON perform their flying leaps, catching by the feet, knees, or hands, and recovering them? selves just at the nick of time, is such as to strike the beholder with amazement The "Leap for Life," which is ono of their most difficult performances, is accomplished in the most graceful manner ; and, when every breath i8 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 are a prominent attraction in the entertainment. Senorita ROSETTI, a danseuse and tight-rope performer, Monsieur- HENRI AGOUBTY, and ITUo AUGUSTINE, dancers and pantomimists, .constitute the remainder of the troupe. These artists have a world-wide reputation, and have performed in the largest European theatres with great eclat. Praise, under such circumstances, is needless, and a description of their stupendous feats impossible. They will have to be seen in or? der to be appreciated, and one visit is but the pre? lude to many. In consequence of tho withdrawal of the Milton ian Tableaux, the Hanlon Troupe are enabled to commence their performances much sooner than was anticipated. In addition to their evening en? tertainments they propose giving a Matinee on Saturday afternoon, which is designed exclusively fer schools and children. A rare opportunity is now afforded our citizens of seeing this wonderful Troupe, and the only re? gret is that, in consequence of the absence of a theatre, their movements will be somewhat cramped, but they have availed themselves of every facility, and confidently expect that tho Charleston public will accord to them the hearty well done, so liberally bestowed in other cities. THE SAVANNAH STRIKE has apparently reached its climax. The News and Herald, in giving an account of the arrests made, says : The trouble which has existed among the steve? dores in relation to tho tax on badges came near ending seriously yesterday. Some few men had uaid the tax, and were engaged in loading and unload? ing the steamships "Virgo and General Barnes. It appears that those refusing to comply with the or? dinance had resolved upon extreme measures, and were disposed to prevent by force those wishing to work from doing so; and it was. given out pub-, holy that no one would be allowed to go to work under the bluff after 2 o'clock yesterday. As the hour approached for "resuming labor, the crowd began collecting, and by two o'clock the Bay at the eastern end was thronged with freedmen. The malcontents appeared to be actin7 according to method, and no one was allowed to go down the steps leading to iho wharves. In anticipation, an effective force of police offi? cers were stationed there, and shortly after two o'clock tho whole body were marshalled down under command of Genoral Robert Anderson, Chief of Police. After disposing his men in different places, thc order was given to clear the passage? ways leadjng to thc vessels, and some of the ne? groes refusing, wero promptly arrested and march? ed to tho rear of .thc officer*. Ono white man, whose namo we do not caro to i inmortalizo in typo, who had made .himself conspicuous in counselling and advising thc negroes, was also marched to thc rear just in tune to Bavo hip head from violent col? lision with a policeman's billy. A few of thc negroes who attempted to resist the officers had to be used rather roughly, and it was rumored that a rescue would bo attempted on the way to the barracks; but there was really no foundation for th? report. Soon after the arrests things wore a more quiet aspect, and wc do not anticipate any more trouble. AUCTION SALE OF SUGAR.-The attention of deal era is invited to the auction sale of grocery sugars by Messrs. J. A. ENSLOW & CO., at 10J o'clock, this morning, at their store, No. 125 East Bay. TDBLIO DRIVES-Charleston stands alone among hor sister cities a soli tary instance of a corpora? tion not possessing a suitable place for' a public drive. In the days of auld lang syne the Meet? ing street, King street and Rutlodgo street roads were tho resort of the gay and happy who were fortunate enough to possess a vehicle, or to own ahorse. The summer days wore tb on a halcyon period, when the" plank road was hourly crowded with a moving throng, who gladly escaped from the heat and dust of tho city to broathe tho pure country air, and be lulled to forgetfulness by tho rustling of tho pines. Now this is all changod ; it is true the ah* is tho same, and the music of tho "trooa as molodious as over, but the plank road is a misnomer ; its foundations are gone, and its glory has departed. Owing oither to the neglect and misusage 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 the far famed corderoy roads of our ancestors. It is true that it still offers an admirable fiold for homeo? pathic "practice, and any dyspeptic or nervous individual who will endure a day's jolting over its inequalities, can return homo a now man. No ono who has any regard for life, limb, or oven comfort, presumes to drive upon tho so-called plank road in its present dilapidated condition, but a Bide cut has been extemporized, and th? sand or mud of that is far preferable to the ground and lofty tum? bling experienced on the other. IL is high time that some stops wore taken to improve tho condition of these roads. If the city ia too poor (which is unfortunately the case), let it be made a public enterprise. It ie true that, owing to the location of Charleston, the space is very limited and the drives few in number, but this will only entail loss expenco and render those few more popular than ever. Rutledge, King and Meeting street roads a?e the main avenues to the city, a large portion of them lying within the city limits, and should, by all moans, be rescue 1 from tho 8hame"and reproach that has fallen upon them. Tho Rutledgo road was never blessed with tho improvement of planks, and now presents a dreary waste of sand that no one would encounter for pleasure; the others are several shades better, but a drive upon thom is far from being the acme of happiness. Augusta is noted for the beauty of its drives, and the roads leading to its suburbs are always crowded by the pleasure-seekers. The principal one of these is a turnpike, which is kept in excellent order by tho small toll exacted; but all are in splendid travelling condition and reflect credit upon the city. Although Charleston, from its position, has no suburbs, and the soil is far . nore sandy than that of Augusta, yet ii promises an advantage in only having three thoroughfares, and a little timely at? tention would make these compare favorably with those of any city. The plank road has been tried as the least expensive, and while new, answered the purpose admirably; but it required frequent repairs, and when out of order was excessively dis? agreeable. In New Orleans and other places, the sholl road has boen used with great success; but although the material is abundant, it would require a vast amount, and bo ultimately very expensive. By far the best paving for a road is what is usually known as the Nickerson's. This has been in general use in several of the Western cities, and has given universal satisfaction, aa it requires but a miall outlay and is very dtirable. It ia composed of Bmall square blocks of wood, four feet by six, laid closely together, and tho interstices filled with grave!. This pavement will last for years, and pre? sents a far moro even surface than one formed of cobble stones ; besides it has the advantage of cheapnoss, especially in this country, where tho wood can be procured and prepared at a small cost. A turnpike road established on these principles would not only soon pay fer itsolf, but ultimately afford a good revenue for ils projectors. A good road is essential to tho prosperity of any city, and th ore ore fow who need one more than Chai les ton. li wo wait until the city authorities aro able to undertake this improvement, many years will elapse, and the road becomo daily tho worse for wear. Private enterprise has always succeeded better than that of a corporate body, and if this matter is takon in hand by our moneyed citizens, next summer will see these old roads rejuvenated, and rejoicing in tho increcsod travel which their improved condition will command. THE BALTIMORE Gazelle, cf Monday, January 28, has the following : .SAILING OF STEAMERS-THE TEACK AGAIN OPEN. -For some time past tho city of Baltimore has suffered very seriously in consequence of all com? munication with tho rest ol! the world, by water, being cut off. Several efforts wore made, and at one time with partial success, but for tho want ol' a boat of sufficient capacity tho track closed, and all hopes of reopening it, until it should be done by the approach ot spring, were well mgh gone. Tho steamer Falcon, of Mordecai's Charleston linc, several days ago moved down as far as the Middle Ground, but tuero she Btopped, though it was con? fidently asserted that sho could easily make a track through tho ico to the op?on water of the way. Saturday morning a number of men were put to work and the ice was broken around her, and a track somo two hundred feet cut out, so that she might get a start. Farly iu tho after? noon, all things having been got ready, she mode a start and went through the ice, fourteen inches thick, with apparent oase. The steamboat Metropolitan, which had been lying in the ice near Fori McHenry, wanted assistance to get up to the city, anu the Falcon made a circle around her and relieved hor BO that she had no difficulty in getting up to Henderson's Wharf. The Falcon then proceeded on her way, and when last soon was near Fort Carroll, going stoadly along. Tho steamer Patapsco followed in the track of the Falcon, and wan going out very oasiiy at four o'clock in the afternoon. The ice being so very thick on each side of the track, it will not bo difficult to keep it clear if a sufficient number of vessels can bo passed through it to keep tho water agitated. Tho steamer Mexican, of tbc- Baltimore and Liverpool Lino, is ready to sail, and had steam up yesterday afternoon, but the protracted north? west wind made tho tide so low that she could not get away from her wharf. Tho steamers of the brfolk lino, now that the track is oponed, can, if it is deemed desirable, como up to tho city. Last night, howovor, was very cold, and if prompt mea? sures aro not adopted to keep the track tree, tho harbor will a^ain oe sealed, to avoid which nothing Bhould be loft undone. THE Augusta Constitutionalist, in speaking of Bishop LY.VCH, of this city, says : Bishop Lynch, of the Catholic Church, will de? liver a lecture in the Gate City for tho benefit of the poor, in the Central Presbyterian Church, on Thursday night next, at half-past Boven o'clock. H?B Mubject will bo "The Tunnel of the Alps." By the way, the Bishop is docketed for a lecture iu thiB city if wo remember correctly. The elocutionary talents of tho Bishop are so well known and appreciated in hisDioceao, that wo congratulate our Georgia frienda upon the treat in atore for thom. Tho Biahop is a pleasing and im? pressive speaker, and, having a vast fund of popu? lar knowledge, can make his lectures very enter? taining. KINSMAN'S SALOON.--It is an old proverb that three moves are equal to a fire; but when tho two are combined, the supposition would naturally bo that the sufferer is ruined. With but few exceptions this theory is correct, but Mr. W. KINSMAN is one of that exceptional class. Tho firo may destroy and the movea may damage, but yield he will not, and is now making a temporary move in order to prepare for a permanent resting place. Ho ia now located at No. 287 King street, immediately above Measrs. STOLL, WEBB & Co., and still continues to furnish the public with these delicacies that have made him so popular. A SECURE INVESTMENT.-Of all the many schemes for eafe investments we havo seen, none that im? pressed us HO favorably, and so perfectly fair, as the plan of the .Etna Life Insurance Company of Hartford, Conn. What recommends it especially is tho "non-forfeiting plan," which meets one of the common objections often used against effecting Ufo insurance, viz.: that in future yoara a chango of circumstances may render it inconvenient, if not impossible, to meet the annual payments, and the insured is thereby compelled to accept the oquitablc value of his policy, thus sacrificing a por? tion of what ho has paid. By tbe non-forfeiting policies the .?Etna contracts to pay tho amount insured at death ortho specified time, if tho annual premiums aro regularly paid as thoybocome due, whether the full number of premiums have been paid or not. And if tho in? sured, after two or moro premiums have been paid, chooses to discontinue further payments, the com? pany agrees to pay at death, or tko specified time, in proportion to thc number of premiums paid. Thus, if on a policy of $10,000 tho insured is to pay ten annual premiums and discontinues after ho has paid two promiumn, his policy is good for S2000. For further particulars our readers will'consult the advertisement, or still better, the agent in this city, JOHN R. HERIOT, Jn. VEGETABLE MONSTROSITIES.-WC have bacn pre? sented by Mr. W. HUNT, of tho Four Mile House, with six ruta baga turnips of enormous sizo 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 ieceive our thanks. He informed ua that he ob? tained the seed from the house of THOMPSON & ROBB, SO well known to agriculturists as always having the best of article3. required by fanners and others whose pleasant occupation is "to dig the earth." PHOSPHATE.-Aa will bs seen, by reference to our columns, Mr. ROBSON makes a farther announce? ment relating to BAUOH'S Raw-Bone Phosphate. "We have taken some trouble to learn from planters tho result of their experience with the different fertilizers, and not one with whom we have con? versed with, who has tried BATJGH'8 Phosphate, spoke of it excepting in the highest terms, and expressed preference for it over other phosphate. On the arrival of every cargo, Mr. ROBSON has it analyzed, so as to convince himself that each sup? ply ia equal to that previously received and offered for sale. We learn that Mr. BATJGH.?S now in the city, and will be pleased to meet planters and others at the store of Mr. ROBSON and converso with them. Attention is called to the very full ad vor ti ?em ont in another column.

I am now pleased to say Uiat their practical 'experience fully conflrmB the Professor's opinion, of Its value ks a manure. The bebt evidence that tho results of ita use on cot? ton last year were satisfactory lies In the fact that those who then used it are this year buying it again, and in in? creased amounts. .

The manufacturers have, how? ever, placed in my bands an analysis of tho cargo, made by Professor 'Williams, c f Philadelphia, which shows tho standard of the MANURE to be fully up to that of last Beason. The following is the report of Professor Wilhams, re? ferred to above: PHILADELPHIA, January 22, 1867. Messrs. Bough d\ Sons : GENTLEMEN : I have analyzed tho sample of your Su per-PhoBphate handed me some days since, and find it to be composed as follows: Moisture at 212 degrees Fahrenheit. 4.69 per cent. Combined Organic Matter.23.14 per cent Yielding Ammonia..3.62 per cent Bone Phosphate of Tilmo.42.83 por cent Yielding Phosphoric Add.19.02 per cont (Other ingredients not estimated.) The per centage amount of Ammonia is very much greater than that obtained from most Super-PhoBphates I have examined, and this, in connecUon with tho readi? ly soluble condition of th?

The following is the report of an analyste made from a lot now In store: Phosphate of Lime, soluble. 8.20 Phosphate of Lime, insoluble.28.80 . -37.00 Sulphate of Lime and traces of Sulphate of Ammonia, Potash, Soda and Magnesia, with soinn freo Sulphuric Add, about. 8.00 Hygrometic Water expelled at 212 degrocs.... 23.00 Combined Water (a portion of this belongs to the Phosphate of Lime, which was esti- . mated after Its ignition; the greater par I of bilanoo is doubtless associato l with tho Animal Matter) and Animal Matter. 30.00 SUica(Sand). 2.00 1100.00 The Amma! Matter, aa might bo supposed in a fertilizer so largely derived from fish, is less highly nitrogohized than that in the Peruvian Guano. Still lt will lilford, du? ring tho process of decomposition, about three per cent, of Ammonia. Thc Oil (which is rcmarLubly abundant) though not generally reckoned among Manures, being j hore associated with other less stable animal principios, cannot fail of adding to the value of tho mixture, espe? cially on light soils. Thc insoluble Phosphate being thoroughly organized and, at the same time, minutely divided, is also well adapted to a gradual appropriation by the plant - .; According, to the ?present sample, COE'S SUPER PHOSPHATE la a judiciously and faithfully manufac? tured Manure, and will not disappoint thoHO who will give it a trial. Even If employed alone, I should expect highly remunerative results. (Signed) CHARLES UPHAM SHEPARD. Price $G5 per ton of 2000 pounds. For salo by E. H. RODGERS & CO., Solo Agonts for South Carolina.

How few there aro who are not subject to some affection of the lungs or respiratory orgaus, who, by noglec?ng premonitory symptoms, aggravate the complaint, untO diecaso strikes its shafts, causing inexpressible torture of the patient, and auxioty and distress to friends. "Only a cold t" "A slight sore throat 1 " is the hf allens remark of many when so affected. Yes ; "Only a cold," was the thoughtless expression of tbousauds whom Death has markod for bis prey..
