LOCAL MATTERS.
To Correspondents.
We are continually receiving communications on
political and other matters fror? persons who do
not attach their proper names to tho articles sen*;
and we take this occasion of repeating that nothing
can bo published in THE DAILY NEWS without
being indorsed bj some responsible individual.
WE WOULD call the attention of purchasers to
the advertisement of Mr. J. N. ROBSON, Agent for
DUPONT'S Powder. He has a large and complete
stock, which will always be kept up, and which he
will daily dVdvei to anypart of the city. The
Messrs. DUPONT commenced the manufacture of
powder in 1801, and havo kept their powder up to
the standard, and an expor'enco of thirty years
with their former Agents hore havo always given
complete satisfaction. Their establishment ?3 ono
of the largest in tho United States, capable ?ii turn?
ing out one thousand kegs daily, with a capital ->
over two minion dollars invested, thus giving a
guarantee that purchasers can depend on what
they get. Mr. ROBSON is prepared to sell at lowest
market rates, and, indeed, as low as it can be or?
dered from the factory in small lots.

He always has the latest dates of papers and

WE ABE obliged to Mr. VOGLEB, of Market

favored us with a number of "Once a Week," a
weekly periodical published in New York after the
style ol' its London namesake. It is an eclectic,
filled with first-rate reading matter, at a very low
price.

tion for a writ of Babeas Corpus, on motion of T.
G. BARKER, Esq., it was continued, on account of

On motion of C. H. S? MONT?N, Esq., W. W. LE?
GARE, Esq., was admitted to practice in the U. S.
Courts of the District of South Carolina, on taking
the customary oath.
UNION PBAYEB MEETINGS.-THE YOUNG MEN'S
CHRISTIAN " ASSOCIATION proposes commencing a
regular weekly prayer meeting, to be conducted
by ministers of the various denominations of thc
city. They have chosen the evenings for holding
them, in order that young men and others who aro
engaged in their business avocations during the
day, may bo enabled to attend. An invita?
tion is exi ended to all who desire to see a revival
of religion in our city, and who wish the Almighty
blessing upon our poor distressed country. The
present is eminently a time for prayer, and all
sects and denominations may here bow together,
before one common .altar, and ask for God's bless?
ing to descend upon us all, that peace and good?
will may reign throughout the land.
HON. A. A. WING.-We regret that this gentle
rr .ui, from the State of Maine, where he has long
^ held important public positions of honor and of
trust, was compelled to sojourn so brief a time
among us.
Returning with his wife from Florida, whither
he had gone in search of health, he was unexpect?
edly, as he was painfully admonished, that the
illness of his wife obliged him to retrace his steps
in hope of immediately reaching Bangor. The de~
. velopment of an intractable fever, which from its
inception exhibited tho insufficiency of all reme?
dial agents for its relief, caused this estimable
lady to breathe her last a few days since at the
Mansion House of this city.
Distant from the endearing ministrations of ac?
customed friendships, it is gratifying to know that
the kind offices of her physician and her. ac?
quaintances, with the unremitting assiduities of
the landlady, afforded every assistance and com?
fort. Such a reflection must lesson the bitterness
of the cup from which they now drink who consti?
tute the afflicted household.
Mr. WING carries with him our syspathies in his
present bereavement.
THE CHABXESTON HOUSE.-It is merely necessa
ry to mention this establishment, and the names of
the proprietors, to convince our lady readers that
there is some new styles of goods on hand for their
inspection. Messrs. STOLL, WEBB cfc Co., under?
stand how to please tho. Charleston trade, and the
H announcement that they'have mode their grand
' opening, is sufficient to cause a rush of custom
, that will keep away all azure demons. By a refer?
ence to their advertisement in another column, it
will be seen that they have given a summary of
their stock, and though, from our personal, kn owl
edge, we can say'.w the half hos not been told," yet
the inducements they offer to .their customers have
rarely been equaled. . The Charleston House is a
name fitly chosen, as the proprietors are "natives
and to the mannur born," and have now an envia
. ble notoriety, not only for strict business integrity,
but for having a stock' that is dways complete
and never without some attractions to .purchasers.
As the ladies ore the principal customers, they
can understand t he technical phrases used in the
advertisement, and will at once see that it is lo
their interest to visit Messrs. STOLL, WEBB & Co.'s
establishment at an early day, and secure some of
the novelties they offer.
ESCAPE OF PRISONER S.-During the spring term
of the Court.' of General Sessions and Common
Pleas, held last year in this city, Judge DAWKINS
presiding, several parties were tried for burglary
but were convicted of larceny. They were sen?
tenced to be imprisoned for a certain length of
time, at the expiration of which, they were to be
banished from the State not to return under penal
^ty of death. Among the number sentenced were
several old and noted offenders, who made repeat?
ed efforts to escape from the jail, but were fortun?
ately discovered and the attempt frustrated.
Their term of imprisonment has recently expired,
?-. but the State having made no provisions for their
^transportation, they were still detained. This did
not suit the partied, and two of them, Jenkins and
Clear, succeeded in getting desperately sick (?)
and were sent to the Roper Hospital for treatment,
but not wishing to be a burden to the authorities,
soon left that institution and are now at large.
These parties were tried and convicted on un?
doubted testimony, and it was only through the
efforts of the detectives that they were first ar?
rested, and unless soon recaptured, they will make
the public suffer. Their removal from the jail was
the first steps toward their escape, and not being
subjected to the same scrutiny in the hospital, it
was not a difficult matter for such experienced
jailbirds to leave. These escapes would not be a
matter of regret if the p:. *ties wouid leave the
city, but their old haunts pob ess so many attrac?
tions that they will remain until either discovered
or some bold robbery leads to their detection.
MAYOR'S COURT-March 25.-Louisa Green, a
"yaller gal," who had, suffered from small-pox to
euch an extent that her face looked as if somebody
had thrown her into a barrel of nails, and who
olaimed tobe originally from John's Island but
lately from the hospital was brought up for going
into a gentleman's residence and concealing her?
self under a bedstead in the second story. As she
gave no other reason for being there, than that
she wanted somo place to sleep, and as nothing
about the house was missing, she was sentenced to
10 days imprisonment.
A sailor found lying down drunk in Elliott street,
was fined $5 for forgetting himself so far as to mis?
behave in that highly respectable locality.
Two men who go down to the sea in ships, hap?
pening to have an argument in the streets, which
could not bo settled w.thout a resort to blows,
?went down to a wharf among tho shipping and
there proceeded to discuss the matter according
to the revised rules of the P. R. when the polico
came up, and, in the character of bottle holders,
took both their mon off. His Honor, acting as
umpire, fined the parties $5 each, and ordered the
fight to be considered as drawn.
A case of a chimney on fire was referred to the
Recorder's Court.
Samuel Mustapha, a "cullud gemman" whom
.the " green-eyed monster" had caused to look
upon one Petor Morgan with supreme disgust, and
ho on Saturday night had caught the said Peter
hing from his house as he entered the door,
*hd had expeditiously followed the said Peter, and
er earth more than once, was arraigned for c
turbing the public peace, and was fined $5.
A gentleman, for smoking on the wharf, was fii

Augustus Danbar, a dusky and uncleanly p
sonago, who stole a gun at Monk's Corner, a
brought down five turkeys without firing it, v
seat to a Magistrate to explain how he did it.
RELIGIOUS CEREMONY.-In accordanco to tho t
nouncemo.it made in tho papera tho ceremony
laying the corner-stone of the Mission Prosbyi
lian Church (colored) took place in George strei
between St. Philip and King streets, at 3 o'clo<
yesterday afternoon. A stage had been erect
nea** one end of the enclosuro, which was occupi
by -J,e Pastor, Kev. E. J. Adams, Chaplain Frene
Rev. F. L. Cardozo and other divines connect
with the church. Quite a number of persons h
collected to witness the ceremony, and took t
best positions they could obtain on tho bric!
lumber and trees in the lot. Immediately in fra
of the stage the crowd was quite denBe, and gre
eagerness was manifested in the proceedings 1
the spectators.
The ceremony was begun by singing a hymn,
which the audience joined. Rev. F. L. Cardo;
then read the 3d chapter of 1st Corinthians, ai
Ci ai lain French offered prayer. The Pastor
the congregation, Rev. E. J. AdamB, then deliv?
ed an eloquent address from the 68th Psah
"Princes shall come out of Egypt, and Ethiop
shall soon Btretch out ber hands unto God." Tl
corner stone was laid in which tho following doc
ments were enclosed: a Bible, a hymn book, tl
confession of faith, several Presbyterian newsp
pera, the names of the President of tho Uuito
States, the President of the Senate, and the Chi
Justice.
The church now in course of erection is eight
five feet by forty-five, and will, when complete
seat one thousand persons. It will have a lar/
and convenient basement for various church pu
poses and for Sabbath and day schools. The co
tractors for the work are MOBBIS & THOBN for tl
wood, and MAXWELL & HOWARD for the brick,
ts expected that the cost of erection will bed
Drayed by the congregation and by the friends
the church at the North.
The proceedings were characterized by ord
and dignity, and from the interest manifested c
this occasion it is fair to infer that the corne
stone will be soon surmounted by others, and th
beforo many months the dedication will be pe
formed.
?THE WHOLESALE TRADE OF CHARLESTON.
stroll through the business portions of Hayn o ai;
Meeting streets will convince even a casual obse
ver that the Charleston merchants are fully pn
pared to substantiate the promises made to the
former customers, and the number of boxes dail
turned out before the doora is an ample proof th;
the Spring Trade has not suffered from stagnatioi
The different stores on these streets are we
stocked with every article in their lines, and off
tempting inducements to country buyers to inves
The ante bellum era has always been referred to a
the palmiest period in the Charleston trade, bu
from an inspection of the different Btocks it is ov
dent that the merchants will not allow many set
sons to elapse before the past will beoverehadowe
by the coming prosperity.
Since the close of tho war the prices of many c
the prominent articles, such as prints and domes
tics, have fallen considerably, and they'can now b
purchased in this city equally as low as ?ror
Northern markets. It has been a matter of prid
with the wholesale merchants to preserve the rep
ntation of Charlesion as a market especially adap
ted to the country trade, and though laborinj
against many difficulties, and having to content
with the high rates of freight, yet they have sue
ceeded, and although the trade is not as largo a
it formerly WP s it is yearly increasing, and tb<
amount of goods sold proves conclusively that tin
principles adopted have produced the desiree
result.
The experience of the past taught both partiel
that the credit system was extremely defectivo
and productive of great embarrassment in busi?
ness relations, and this has led our merchants tc
adopt the system of cash payments or a short
credit with city acceptance. In nearly every im
stanco this has been made the established rule, and
though somewhat distasteful to those who were
accustomed to purchase on six mouth's time with
the full expectation of renewing their, paper when
it became due, yet it has been acquiesced in cheer?
fully.
An evidence of the increasing prosperity in these
circles is the number of stores that havo sprung
into existence within the last two years, many of
these being the same old firnti re-established on a
new basis, while others have been formed by par?
ties who were tempted by tho prospects for busi?
ness.
The waste places produced by the different con?
flagrations have been rebuilt, and a vacant store ie
now a rare sight. The proprietors of these estab?
lishments are well known throughout the country
for their strict business integrity, and in theil
hands tho future prosperity of Charleston is cer?
tain. With the facilities now offered to the coun?
try buyer, both by the merchants and the railroads,
it is palpable that he can purchase in this market
all that he desires,-and at a less cost than m any
other city. This is no vain boast, but has boen
proved in the present season to the satisfaction ol
many, who came but to spy out the land, but wore
convinced that it was useless to extend their
travels.
COMMENCEMENT OF THE COLLEGE OF CHARLES?
TON.-The Hibernian Hall last night was filled
with one of the largest and most recherche ?"
diences we have seen gathered in many dav*
within its classic walls. We were pleased to see
this for more than one reason. Such an audience
is in itself no mean tribute to the cause of letters
and of science, especially when it is considered
that surrounding influences just now are not con?
ducive to a cultivation of the nobler and moro re?
fined pleasures to be derived from association
with the wiso men of other days. It was our
privilege to spend an evening listening tb the dis?
cussion of the noblest topics that can engage
the human intellect, and for the space of two
hours the jar of faction, and ever recurring din of
reconstruction was banished. Thor* was, in the
entire exercises, not tho faintest allusion to the
great question of the day, and for that short
spaoo al least, the audience might have indulged
the pleasing allusion of imagining itself in the
groves of Athens, listening to the silvery speech
of her great sages.
The exercises were opened with prayer by Rev.
F. A. MOOD, an alumnus of the institution. Music,
by Prof. DAUER'S Band, followed next, and at in?
tervals enlivened the occasion all through the eve?
ning.
The President of the College, N. R. MIDDLETON,
LL.D., then introduced to the audience Mr. HENRY
P. ARCHER, an alumnus, a candidate for the Mas?
ter's ^Degree, who came forward and announced his
subject : " Utilitarianism." This he proposed to
treat under three heads-1st. The Utilitarian Sys?
tems of Philosophy. 2d. Its antagonism with pure
morality; and 3d. Its effects or penalties.
1. He reviewed the system of JEREMY BENTHAM,
which he pronounced to all intents and purposes,
in its teachings and tendencies at least, as that of
EPICURUS. The utilitarianism of Dr. PALEY, ho
3oid, was different from the two preceding. PALEY
ivas actuated by religious motives, while BENTHAM
revelled in the vagaries of casuistry.
2. All systems not founded in truth aro danger
jus both ir? theory and in practice. That utility
is opposer to morality can be Been in the every
lay transactions of tho world. Self controls every?
thing. The ego and the meum are but seldom sub?
ordinated to the tu and the tuum. With the ordi
oary man of business whatever is expedient is
right.
3. The penalty of utilitarianism-its tendency to
reduce man to a mero lover of self and of monoy.
He then wont on to describo in beautiful similes
and pointed antitheses tho sad and cheerless effect
such a system of philosophy exercises on life; cast?
ing its blight over all that is good, pure and noble
in man. As he went on describing the result of
the practical working cf this philosophy he painted
a perfect picture of the poet's ideal of
"The man that hath not music in his soul."
He is of tho earth earthy, and enthusiasm is an
element wanting in his nature. It is a cold, calcu?
lating, cynical system of philosophy, and can seo
good only in things that have a marketable valuo.
It would destroy the crowning glory of humanity,
the jesthotic principle.
In conclusion the speaker entered on a defence
of tho classic languages against tho assaults of
modern utilitarianism, and quoted tho eloquent
language of tho lato HUGH SWINTON LEGARE, in
support of his position. Mr. ARCHER'S address
was listened to with the greatest interest, and was
altogether crcditablo to him, in languago, style
and elocution, and giving evidence of; no Utile re?
search. We have, perhaps, dono him injustice in
attempting to give a skclolonof his argument, for
it really ?onveys no adequate idea ol' his masterly
performance.
Mr. JOHN A. MOROSO, of the Graduating Class,
was next introduced, and spoke on ''Immortality."
Ho was greeted with prolonged applause, which
was well merited; for his composition was excol
extremely graceful. There is the stuff in him to
make an effective speaker. He seemed thorough?
ly imbued with his subject.
President MIDDLETON next made an address to
tho graduates in tho Ciceronian dialect, and con?
ferred Baccalaureate honors upon three young
gentlemen.
The Master's degree was conferred on Messrs. J.
F. FICEEN, W. B. EJNGMAN, H. P. ABCHEB, A. J.
VIDAL, W. P. JACOBS, and J. BEEVE GIBBES.
The dogree of Doctor of Divinity was conferred
upon Bev. PAUL TBAPIEB.
The President then addressed the graduates,
giving thom a few words of sound advice and
wholesome instruction.
Mr. G. HERBERT SASS, of tho Graduating Class,
was next introduced.. But although his subject
("Ich Dien"), was German, the address was deliv?
ered in English. He said that there is an obedi?
ence nobler than freedom. Slaves of the lamp
must we ever be of the lamp lighted on the altar
of duty. Mr. SASS' address was in excellent taste,
and delivered with grace. He addressed the vale?
dictory to the Trustees and Faculty, and Mr. Mo
Boso concluded the interesting exercises of the
evening by a lost farewell address to the class.

The disorganization of labor demands a chango in

it point with better prospects than to wine growing.
Grape culture In tho Northern States is attended with so
mach uncertainty, in consequence of the severo win?
ters, that it is yet doubtful if it can be mado an interest
of any considerable importance beyond speculating in
hardy varieties. In the light of ibis experience, South
Carolina may seizo the prize, as some compensation for
the wrongs Incictod on her by fanaticism in the cause of
a false humanity. In the change demanded, the upland
planters or farmers will find grape culture a substitute
for their chief staple, which requires but trifling labor,
and vastly more profitable. This ?B no patent way to
get rich, nor yet is lt a temptation to speculate in illu?
sions with a promise of fabulous results ; but, as the
"early bird catches tho worm," so the first to enter this

YALE COLLEOE, November 16, 18C6. J
I have always recommended tho Faber Polygrade
Lead Pencils as the only pencils fitted for both ornamen?
tal and mathematical drawing; but after a thorough
trial of the Amorican Polygrade Lead Pencils, man
ulac<"r.d by tho American Lead Pencil Company, New
York, I find them superior io any pencil in use, even to
tho Faber or the old English Cumberland Lead Pencil,
being a superior pencil for sketching, ornamental and
mechanical drawing, and all tho ordinary uses of a lead
pencil.
Thee.- oencils aro very finely graded and have a very
smooth .ead; cvon the sottest pencils hold tho point weh;
they are all that can bo desired in a pencil. It gives me
great pleasure to bo a bio to assure Americans that they
wiU no long?r be compelled to depend upon Germany or
any other loreign market for pencils.
