TECKJEB_This gentleman, who was well known to Charlestonians aa as officer iu the Confederate States Navy, and at one time had command of the gunboat Charleston, stationed at this port. At the oloae of the war he left the country and went to South America, where bo obtained the position of Commander in the Peruvian Navy. Late advices 'b lato that ho has resigned his commission in that service, but no mention is made of his proposed movement. ' " .;. THE SEWXNO MACHINE DOCTOB.-We call atten? tion to the advertisement cf D. B. HASEE?OT in this morning's paper. He is emphatically the Sewing Machine Doctor, and warranta a cure in all cases. A great many machines that were badly. ShormanizLd, and hundreds that have lain idle for the past five; years, many of them'broken and damaged, have-passed thisugh his co?rso.of treat? ment, and are ?ow at work with modern improve? ments as good as new, thus saving thousands of dollars to the impoverished Bottch. Mr.,H. is not a '."recent importation," but an. old resident, and has made Sewing Machines a speciality for the last ten years in this city. We would advise all who want the latest and most reliable news on Sewing Machine matters, to give him a calL MAYOR'S OotrBT, March SO.-Daniel Drayton, a blaok boy, who was brought up on a charge of vjpunding another youth, while throwing bricks, waa discharged,' as no prosecutor appeared: - ' - The driver of a loaded dray, who waa lagging behind while his industrious horse was plodding along, but had the misfortune to run into a physician's huggy.mnchtoits damage, was fined SS for not wallang in company, with his boast. : Prince Vanderhorst, a member of a colored royal family, who got aa drunk as a lord, and was equal? ly as disordorly, was fined $5. Some sailors belonging;:to the United States navy, who were taken up rather under the influence of tho alcoholics, wore sent on. boord of their yessel. - . A-WOED TO THE WISE_There are few localities better known than King s tr eec; but that prome? nade has so many points of attraction that some moy escape a transient visitor-but this is never the case with No. 248 King street, the dry goods establishment of Mr. Louis POTTEN. We paid a flying visit to Mr. COHEN'S establishment, some weeks baok, and gave our. readers ar. account of his stock; since that time ho has made extensive additions, and it is now One of the largest and best'selected in the city. Mr. COHEN is an expe? rienced merchant, and his store shows the result of care and attention. His stock embraces the different description of goods, styles, qualities, io., and is perfect even in the minor details. The ladies, who never fail to visit King street, will find it impossible to pass by Mr. COHEN'S, as he offers irresistible inducements to tempt their curiosity, and tho daughters of Eva, being-shoppers by na? ture, cannot resist the temptation, but enter and pur'chaso. QUIET_Perhaps at no period since the close of | the war has the city been more quiet, or enjoyed a greater freedom from disturbances of ?very de? scription, than at present. The police courts have scarcely employment to keep them busy, and the lew arrests made are for drunkenness, or some trifling breach of tho laws. The detectives are al? most ready to exclaim, "Othello's occupation is gone," for their charges have apparently made a ! total reform, and have ^renounced tho error of | their ways. Charleston, so tradition reports, al? ways was a godly place, and full of goodly people, and, from present appearances, tradition was not wrong. It is true that wc are now passing through a crisis, and every other man has politics on the brain, but there are few Southern cities whose population, including the lately freed class, show geater deference to the law, and are more quiet and orderly in their demeanor than in this city. It is a matter of congratulation that, notwith? standing the efforts-of some parties to foment dis? turbances and create an ill-feeling between the tv?o classes, the wheels of government, beth civil and military, have moved smoothly along, and the enhenle cordiale now existing bids fair long to con? tinue, i THE FZBST OP AJPBEL.-The first of April enjoys a character of its own as far as it, and it alone, is consecrated to practical joking. On thia day it be? comes the business of a vast number of people, especially the juveniles, to practice innocent im? postures upon their unsuspicious neighbors by way of malting them what are called April Fools. Por successful April fooling it is necessary to have considerable coolness, and what is vulgarly known as face, in order to impose upon the victim success? fully. A large proportion of this pleasantry is ef? fected before and at breakfast, while few have had occasion to remember the day of the year, and be? fore a single victimization has warned people of j their danger. This practice was originally brought from the mother country, but has been considerably im? proved since its introduction, and the day is not allowed to pass without an attempt to "sell" all who come in daily contact with each other. The urchins on the streets and the school boys are noted for their expertness in this style of fun, and spare none in their sport. The most common sell is to slyly pin a piece of paper or cloth upon the dress, $rhich at once attracts attention- and pro? claims the wearer an April fool. Letters premising to give valuable information to the bearer by calling at a certain place are fre? quently used for this purpose, the parry when ap? plied to sending the victim to another person, sad | it is probable not until some kind hearted individ? ual tells him of the trick that he finds that he has been imposed upon. In Scotland this is called "hunting tho gowk," and is mentioned by one of | the poets in the old couplet ' 'This ls the fir t dav of April, Hunt the gowk another milo/' To chronicle tho numerou? pleasant jests and catches tbat are current on ; this day would be im? possible, as. an inventive go-ius has always some new schema on hand to. surprise and entrap the unwary. The practice has been prevalent in all i countries, from the earliest ages, with a singular coincidence of the day, but it is impossible to hace its origin. The homely jests used in this country of leather fritters, potato candles, ?tc., are well known, and the laugh is always the hear? tiest from the individual who vainly tries to cut the one or light the other boforo he discovers that "the fools are not all dead." Aside from ita character for practical joking, this ia the first day of tho most pleasant month in the year when Dame Nature seems to be in love with herself, and makes all things appear fresh, young, and beautiful. The March winds and fierce rains will now disappear, and in their place cornea that mixture of sunshine and shower that has hean a fruitful theme for poets in all ages, and is beau? tifully described in tho following lines' : "Ha? April, true Medea of tho year, That roaketh all things young and fresh appear . When we despair, thy seasonable showers ' Comfort the corn and cheer the drooping fiowersr ? Sweet, Thave permed thy praise, and here I bring it,i Ja conflaeacatfcahirda themselves will sing u/8 OLD BortES?-Few persona aro avrsro of, tho in? trinsic valu? of oldljohosv abd havo wandered- at tho qnaatit?oa.that ?rc daily being carrted"*hrough ibo s tr?: ts and shipped to different point'' North, little or no uso has ever 'boon made of this mate? rial lu iiiie ??Ctiv?, Mid iii? uuwopapor paragraphs alluding io it3 efficacy as a manuro hay? been gen? erally disregard od. At the North, where every foot of land is highly cultivated, it is necessary to em? ploy some means to restore the impoverished earth lo its nounal condition, and the most im? proved fertilizers are usod for thiB* purpose. Amoug those that have been tried nono have been found, equal to the ammoniated manures, as these contain a large proportion of lime, which is essen? tial to tho health of tho growing plants. These manures aro composed principally of pulverized bones, and the raw material is obtained from all sections of the country and prepared in the largo factories in the Northern cities, from whence it is shippad oiten to the very places that supplied the bones.' ' " In 'an agricultural country like the South the importance of fertilizers has been long known, and large expenditures are annually made by the plant? ers to procur? them. In our present impoverished condition, it is of vital interest to study economy in every particular, and when it is known that we possess the fertilizing material, the energy neces? sary to prepare it will be soon generated. The freight on tho old horns and bones shipped from this part, together with the rotura freight, profit and charges of the manufacturers and their agents, amount to a considerable sum, which is drained from people straggling against poverty. A factory to pulverise the bones and prepare the manure for market, could be easily established near this city, and would, in time, prove a paying success. The butcher pens would furnish a large propor? tion of the material used, and quantities could bo obtained from th? interior at low rates, while the tea island plantations in this vicinity alono could support the establishment by their patronage. These are not the times for folding the hands; it is necessary to be up and doing. We have too long boen blind to our own interests, and tho sooner wo encourage the introduction of indus? trial and mechanical pursuits among, us, the sooner we will em or ge from our dependent state and be again a free people. The South is an agricultural country, and the establishment of these factories in her different cities would soon be attended with profit to the owners, and a vast amount of good to the planter, while the money that now enriches strangers would_ be spent at homo. THE TTJBNVEBKIN, as will be seen by an adver? tisement in to-day's NEWS, is to have a gala time this afternoon and evening. The performances will emmence at 2 F. M., when the young Turners will vault, leap, swing, run, wrestle, ?tc., and show to on admiring audience that they have not been idle during the past twelve months. In the evening, at 8 o'clock, all will assemble, young and old, to witness a dramatic performance, after which tho day's festivities will be closed with dancing. That tho Turners are a German society is prob? ably all that the majority of our readers know on the subject. Some few there may be who have some indefinite idea that the Turners are an asso? ciation of gymnasts. Beyond this, we foal sure, nothing is Imo vu to the average non-Germans. The word 'furner" is generally derived from lur nier (tournament), one of the best known institu? tions of chivalry. The founder o? the modern Turners-"Father JAHR"-ono of the noblest of men, whom' Germany honors for his patriotism and love of liberty, in contemplating the physical strength and agility developed by those medieval tournaments, thought that a restoration of this institution would secure to the youth of Germany a return of that strength of muscio which made the old Germans such formidablo antagonists to their ambitious neighbors. But he had his eye not only upon more physical development. Ho was mindful, also, of the old saying,-"-sit mens sana in corpore sand",-that a sound mind could only be looked for in a sound body. Tho exercises of the Turners embrace every species of gymnas? tic practice: swinging, climbing, fencing, running, wrestling, etc., etc. The Charleston Turnverein has been in opera? tion over fifteen years, and is composed of three sections : a gymnastic, a dramatic, and a musical (singing) section. Formerly it had special meet? ings for the furtherance of literary and rcientific culture among its members ; and they had not un frequently very interesting discussions. The war exercised a baneful influence upon its operations, as it did apon every kindred association through? out the country ; but the society is hopeful that, with the increase of German immigration, its ranks will soon be filled to more than their pristine strength. The play this evening, "Courtship in Heligo? land," promises to be of more than ordinary in? terest. The following is an outline of the plot Peter Pump, a rich fisherman, is desirous of mar? rying his son "Hannes," who is almost an idiot, to ] ( Clara, the supposed daughter of a poor fisherman named Michael Steffens. She, however, is averse to such a union. Steffens owes money to Pump, who threatens him with the law, if he does not consent to the marriage. Jack Trolle, who, in his youth, had run away from his parents in Heligoland, and never been heard of sinoe, sud? denly turns up, and with him came a sailor, j 1 Trolle designs spending the remainder of his days on the island, and learns of Stoffens the un? pleasant posture of affairs between himself and Peter Pump. The young sailor, in the meantime, falls in love with the supposed daughter of Stef? fens, and communicates to his commander, Trolle, that he would like to marry her. Trolle tells him that this could not be, without, however, giving the reason. Next appears an English nobleman (Lord Water cock), who has laid a wager that he could abduct the prettiest girl from Heligoland without saying a word. [It is funny how those English lords, when they get on the Continent, or even on an island in the German Ocean, make foolish bets and never speak a word.] John, his lordship's groom, enters into negotiations with Peter Pump, who, al? lured by the offered reward, agrees to astusf. The abduction is to take place at night. But Clara ac? cidentally that night slept at a neighbor's, and Jack Trolle slept in her room at her father's house. They secure him, of course under the impression of having the girl, and that very moment comes the young sailor. The story ends in the declara? tion of Jack Trolle, that the sailor is the e?n of Steffens, whom his parents had long since thought drowned. Hence, Trolle's refusal to his union with Clara, his supposed sister. But it soon turns out that she is not the daughter of Steffens, but a dis? tant relative, and that there is, therefore, no bar to their union. The English lord commences a boxing match with the sailor,, and is of course floored. - Debtors arad Creditors. 2b the Editor of the Daily News : The newspapers in the several Districts of the State teem with statements of the unusual number of suits lately instituted for the collection of debts, and alarm is expressed at the consequences of the1 apprehended pressure of debtcrs in their impover? ished condition. But it does not follow that such a cruel result will ensue. Creditors fear that others wfll.be ahead ol them in obtaining liens on the property of their debtors. In that lies the ex? planation of the bulk of the cases. The hen being secured, there is surely good ground for the belief that proper forbearance will be exercised, in most cases, from motives of eommon humanity, and that public sentiment will command it in the others. It would be well to spread this view of the matter, to allay, distress and excitement, which are taking possession of people's minds. *** BBOWN'S BEONC?TTAJ.
