This sale will he conducted by Messrs. R. M. MARSHALL & BRO., and will offer induce? ments to any wishing co open a business of that description. DBATH OF A VETERAN.- Our obituary columns cont:.in the notice of the death of Mr. ALFRED J. BLUETT, formerly a member of the 27th Regiment, the old Charleston Battalion. This battalion, from its formation, was in the thickest of the fray, and its members saw probably some of the hardest fighting during the war. Mr. BLUETT was one of four who assisted in raising the flag on Fort Sum? ter after it had been shot away. The surviving members of the battalion are invited to pay the last tribute of respect to their comrade in arms. Si BING TEAL**-The waning Winter admonishes ns that? with the disappearance of the cold weather, we must not neglect thoexample set cy Dame Na? ture hut like her clothe ourselves in-now and sea? sonable robes. The fair sex, who are too wise not to bo aware of what is proper, are making every effort to keep up with the times, and King street 5e daily crowded Vith eager shoppers. Perhaps no point on that bisy thoroughfare is more pa tronfrsd than No. 248, the stand of Mr. Louis COB&N. The style, variety, quality and quantity of gooch7 that he offers are enough to tempt any one. and fro do resist bis attractions. His stock comprises every thing in his lino, and is thorough and complete". By reference to bis advertisement full particulars csu be obtained, and shopping iuts made out. UiOTED SATES DISTRICT COUBT-HODL GEO. S. BRYAN Presiding.-On motion of T. Y. SraoNs, Esq., RUDOLPH SEIGLTNG, Esq., was admitted to practice in the District and Circuit Courts of the United States for the District of South Carolina. In the habeas corpus case, tried before this Court on Tuesday, the following order was made by the Judge on hearing the return of the Sheriff: TOPED STATES OF AMERICA, SOUTH CAROLINA DIS? TRICT. In the mailer of John Lewis. OD hearing the return of John E. Carew, Esq., Sheriff of Charleston District, to the writ of habeas corpus issued in this case, and the return of the mil: tary authorities in compliance with the order issued by this Court, and the production of the body of the applicant, it appearing that the pris? oner was tried by a military commission in a time of legal peace, as established by the Proclamation r. of Pt esidents Lincoln and Johnson, and after the 5asaago of the Civil Bights Bill by Congress, and ie right secured to hun thereby to be tried by a State tribunal or if denied equal justice by such tribunal, then to be tried by a removal of his cause to the Uni ted States District Court, and that in denial of these rights, he was tried by a military tribunal ; it is therefore ordered that the appli? cant, John Lewis, bo discharged from imprison? ment. GEO. S. BRYAN, United States Judge, District of So. Ca. By order of 6he Court,?this 26th February, 1867. DAJTX HORLBECK, 0. D. C. U. 8. for So. Ca. ARTESIAN WELL.-We have long considered this institution a perfect bore, and it appears that it will, sustain this reputation, for Major WELDON, the indefatigable architect of this well, is again at work, and a huge scaffold rising m the air gives a promise of making it a longer, deeper and better hore than ever before. The project of supplying the city with water ?rom this well is still a favorite theme among some of the officials, and the experiments are to be continued until the An? tipodes or some other place is reached. By some accident a part of the machinery was broken in the shaft, and it will have to be removed before fu? ture operations are commenced ; but such acci? dents are trifles to a person like the contractor, and it will not be long ere all obstacles are re? moved and the bore be again free. Whether the results anticipated will ever be obtained, the future alono can prove ; but as success is mainly depen? dent upon the amount of exertion used, Major WELDON'S efforts are certain to receive that en? couragement that belongs to well applied indus try. At present the Artesian Well is but a sinking fund, and the only advantages gained are a watering trough and bath rooms. Whatever else will come is in the dim vista of obscurity, and will be made manifest only by Time and Major WELDON. SHARPERS.-Our city has been infested lately by a gang of harpies, who prey apon tho unwary and* | relieve them of their surplus greenbacks, upon the principle of a fool &c. These characters generally prowl around the wagon yards and boat landings ?nd entrap the ignorant country negroes, who, pleased with the attention shown them by such distinguished darkies, are easily persuaded to bet on different games and to lose with equal fac?ity. It is a novel feature in this city to find the light fingered gentry of so dark a hue, but their opera? tions among those of their own race and color often meet with distinguished success. Fortu? nately for tho country negroes, they, have friends in tho white man, and the thimble-riggers are often defrauded of their prey by the fell swoop of a de? tective officer. A little by-play of this description occurred yesterday; a Massachusetts nig was dis conrsing eloquently to a crowd of open-mouthed wonders darkies from Souf Carlina on the ad? vantages ?9 gained hy betting on the contents of a thimble. They did bet, and to their astonish? ment lost; but ?SQ did the operator, for he was seized by two myC^dons of the law, who soon showed him a game worth two pf his, for he was escorted to tho Guard House in triumph. The Pilgrim Fathers are great institutions, and the re? sult of their miscegenation is another proof that great minds act alike, for oven Dr. BUTLER has his imitators among his colored constituents. PLANTING AND THE PLANTER.-The number of planters who have been visiting this city lately, with the intention of raising the means necessary to plant a crop during the coming year, have greatly diminished. It is but fair to presume that their wants havo been satisfied, and on their re? turn to their homes they will induce Sambo and Cuffeo, by tho most potent argumonts, to under? take the tilling of the ground-at least for a sea? son. Tho money has certainly been forthcoming in many cases, and the good results aro evident from the orders received b?the factors for the dif? ferent nupplies needed on the plantation. An increased activity has been observed among the merchants on the Bay for the last few days, and the shipments made are daily increasing in size. These consist mostly of guanos, corn, salt, agricultural implements, &c, and the steamers that ply upon tho different rivers aro reaping golden The coast and river trade has received an impetus from this cause that will soon place it in the posi? tion it occupied before the war. Many of these vessels are popular carriers, and were well known by parties residing on the durer? ont rivers, but none perhaps had the reputation borne by tho old Planter. Whether this popularity was owing to her name, or to that of her owner, Captain J. C. FERGUSON, it is hard to say; but it is grot?ying to know that though renovated and repaired until ibo now "walks the water like a thing of life," yet her old prestige remains, and her patronage is the same as in days gone by. The first trip of this boat since her return will be a gratifying success, for she has fully equalled the past in quality and quantity of freight taken. Her destination will be Cheraw and the intermediate landings on the Pee Dee Uiver, and her cargo con? sists of 4000 bags of guano, 2000 of corn, 800 or 900 ot' salt, and sundries. There is no better sign of the state of the coun? try, and of the desire of the planters to perse? vere in their agricultural operation*, than the pur? chase of these supplies in such large quantities. It ts on evidence of prosperity that even Territo? rial Governments cannot prevent, and, come what may, while the planting interests are preserved we can breaat the storm. TEMPOS FUGIT.-"We take no note of time but by its loss," hos been beautifully illustrated during the paBt few days, by the stoppage of St. Michael's clock As if to put a new phase on the matter, each face tells a diff?rent tale, and the bewildered gazer is puzzled to know what is the correct hour. Old Father Time, who is popularly suppose 1 to be always marching on, has evidently come to a halt, or his satt eli tes, the time-keepers, are sadly astray. The staid character of St. Michael's clock is gone, for the turmoil now being raised in the belfry has paralyzed her hands, and they hang idly on she face, pointing to unmeaning figures, that only puzzle instead of enlightening. It has been the practice for so many years to regulate all watches by St. Michael's, that many unthinkingly altered their chronometers to suit the vagaries of the steeple, and did not discover their error until they either went too late for bank hours or borne too soon for dinner. The old fogies ware thunder-struck, and those who always swore by St. Michael's clock now swore as savagely at it. The whole community was thrown into a state of confusion and excitement that wa ^ only claimed by the soothing tones of the twelve-o'clock bell at the Orphan House. As th's state of affairs is likely to continue for several days, we hasten to allay the apprehensions expressed by many that the keeper of the clock hod fallen from the steeple, or that the work had become rusty from long exposure. Neither is the case. Father Timo is still on his et : mal tromp, and thoBe who put their faith in St. Michael's should remember that "time and tide wait for no mon,'? and heed not the tale of the hands. Tho present unhealthy condition of affairs will not long con? tinue, the contemplated repairs will be soon made, and St. Michael's clock will then become more than ever a sign of the times. St. Michael's Bells. Messrs. Editors : In your issue of this morning we notice that some difficulty has been experi? enced in raising the amount sufficient to pay the duties on St. Michael's Bells. Wishing to con? tributa as liberally as possible, and anxious once more to be gladdened by the music which in our boyhood days has so often awakened o thrill of joy t in our hearts, we propose to put up for raffle a handsome rosewood ladies' musical work table, originally cost three hundred dollars. The number of chances will not be limited. It will be put up at two dollars per chance; and as the proceeds will be needed os soon os possible, we would like you to suggest the day for raffling it, and beg that you will insert on advertisement to that effect, and ask the other city papers to copy the some.

Smitii : GENTLEMEN :-During a visit to the West, last fall, I contracted chilla and fever, which brought me to my bed, and finally terminated in typhoid fever, and confin? ed me to my room for several months, during which time I waa physically so prostrated that I almost despair? ed of ever recovering my health ; having almost entirely lost my appetite for days, not being able to eat a morsel, added to which I was distressed with a reeling sensation in my head, and passed many sleepless nights-all from debility caused by my prostrate condition, brought about by fever. At this stage of my condition a friend recom? mended me to nae your celebrated STOMACH BITTERS, but being morally opposed to the use of stimulants in any form, I at first declined, but afterward yielded my prejudices, and, after taking the medicine for several weeks, my appetite returned, and with lt I am rapidly regaining my former strength and vigor. My sleep (from tho loss of which I have suffered much) has never been better than it ia now, and the reeling sensation (be? fore Blinded to) has entirely left me. My bowels, which were muon constipated and Irregular, are now quite natural, and, in fact, I am glad to say that I fee1 myself a now man, and teodor you this testimonial of my ap? preciation of your valuable preparation, in order that others, suffering as I have, may avail themselves of ita virtues, which prejudice kept mo from enjoying for so long a period. I may also add that my physician, after seeing the beneficial effect of your Bitters on me, recoin mended that I use them regularly. Yours, very respectfully, E.
