Mirxa' SOPEB-PHOSI-HATE or LmE.-The failure Of last year's crop should admonish the planter to neglect nothing that would advance his interests and tend to improve both his land and his crops. Daring the psst few ? years many new fertilizers have been introduced, but several have fallen far below the expectations of those who have used them. Under these droumatances it becomes ne? cessary for the planter to nae ml y those that are known to'be capable of recuperating the exhaust? ed land. Those fertilizers that are composed of lime have been generally found superior to com? mon manures, and they have; been gradually in? creasing in public favor. Tho ground and the crops both" require subsistence, and lime enters largely into the system of growing plants. Mans* Nitrogenized Phosphate of Lime is one ol the most superior fertilizers known, and has been used by many with- great success. It may be used for top dressing, and both before and after planting the crop, as it cannot be lost by evapora? tion, none fit its constituents' being volatile It bas been found invaluable, both to the farmer and thc horticulturists, as it can be applied at all sea? sons of the year.. Messrs. KIN SHAN & HOWELL, Ko. US East Bay, are the Bole agents for South Carolina, and are prepared to fill all orders with fljspsjtshj _o_ *-?> EXTENSIVE BOBBERIES,-The immunity which our city,baa so long possessed from the burglarious attempts of thieves has, unfortunately, been brought to a close, and the light-fingered gentry have recommenced their demonstrations.. A sin? gular circumstance is that these robberies are generally committed while justice is being meted cot to some unlucky robber who has fallen into the toils. Wa published an account on Tuesday of a robbery at the shop of Mr. D. W. DAVIS; this attempt was made to secure the skeleton and master keys which were employed by Mr. DAVIS |n his work. These keys would be invaluable to a burglar, and the raid would havo been successful if the lynx-eyed detectives had not traced the par? ly to their dens and arrested them with their spoils. On Wednesday morning the store at the corner of Burns' lane and Meeting street was entered at S o'clock,"-and robbed of from $200 to $300. Tho store was occupied by Mr. EBERHARDT as a grocery ecUbhahment, and the thieves made a clean sweep. The matter-was immediately placed in the hands of the detectives, and by 5 P. M., the same day, the articles were found, and the thieves arrested. Tho goods stolon were two boxes of tobafoo, can? dles, rice and groceries. * The robbery of the Bhoe store in Anson 6treet, which occurred on Monday nght, was traced up by the vigilant detectives, who arrested the thieves, and recovered a greater portion of tue goods, with the exception of some that wore sold into the country. A store on East Bay was broken iuto by means of a heavy bron crow-bar, but the thieves woro dis? covered bofore they could collect any plunder, al? though they hod opened thc Bato and taken out twenty-five dol ors. One of tho parties arrested had been concernid in five different robberies, which have occurred recently at different points in thc city. Lieut. HENDRICKS ?nd his efficient corps of de? tectives deserve the thanks of the community for their efforts to trace tho rascals who have been preying upon thom, and their success is sufficient proof that when they are around thieves must leave. Few cities'of the size of Charleston are less afflicted with this curse, and it is principally owing to the fact that the thioves are aware that their capture and condemnation is sure. MATOB S COOBT, May 2.-Tho boy John James, who was imprisoned the day before for attempting to walk off with a gentleman's money drawer, ap? peared this morning as a witness against two other juveniles, who he said wore his confederates, but as his testimony was rather vague, and as his position was such as to prc ve nt, the belief that all ho said was Gospel, the two youths were dis? charged, and John was sent back to his holo. Two or three other cases, which were referred to the Chief of Detectives, closed the business of the day. THE COUBT OF GENERAL SESSIONS AND COMMON PLEAS-Hon. B. MUMBO, Presiding.-The case of THOS. BABBINGTON, a soldier in the Cth Begiment, indicted for the murder of JOSEPH ELLIOTT, was taken up. J. N. NATHANS and L. W. SPBATT, Esqs., appeared for tho defence. HABBXNQTON had been indicted for a murder committed on the 6th of November, 1866, and since that time had been in the custody of the military authorities. His trial had been delayed on this account, as it Had not been decided whether the civil courts had the jurisdiction. Several of the principal witnesses who were present at thc kiding had also been ordered away, and this had occasion? ed some delay. E. M. WHITING, Esq., testified that he had held an inquest over tne body of ELLIOTT when notified of tho murder, and had examined the different parties and taken down their testimony. Ho knew nothing of the case beyond what that investigation elicited. -GRIFFIN, a soldier in the 6th Begiment, tes? tified that he knew the parties well; HABBTMGTON had been in tho Guard Eouse for intoxication, and while there had a quarrel with a man who hud struck him. The troops had been paid off a day or two previously, and a number of them had gone to the city, and were drinking. He had gone, with several others, to Mrs. CAMPS EN'S bar-room, in King street, near Burns' Lan o, and was in there when HABBINQTON entered. HABBINQTON made some disturbance and was put out, and in passing saw ELLIOTT, who asked him what he was doing; the reply was " None of your business." A dis? pute arose and be was knocked dpwn by ELLIOTT. Ho had approached ELLIOTT angrily at the time, and was the most powerful man. When down, HABBINO TON must have drawn bis knife, and advancing on ELLIOTT stabbed him in the throat, the blow being directed toward the heart. ELLIOTT ran a few pases and died. He did not see HABBINQTON again until the jury of inquest. MINNIE CAMTSEN deposed that she kept a lager beor saloon in King street, and that sho remem? bered on the night of the murder seeing a man come in cursing to himself, and with a drawn knife in his hand. She immediately went toward him, and, with the assistance of others, pushed him out. She did not know of any scuffle between EL? LIOTT and the prisoner. F. HBNBT said he was thc father of Mrs. CAMP SEN, and was behind the bar at the time ELLIOT GRIFFIN and others were in the room, beforo H AB? BINGTON entered, but ho co aid not say who put him out, as a screen was between them. PATRICK MCDONALD, Sergeant, testified that he knew both parties, and had heard that some one had knocked HARRINGTON in the Guard Boom. HARRINGTON came to him the morning of the 6th, to get a knife of his which witness bad been keep? ing for bim. He did not want him to take it, but when HARRINGTON became vexed it was given to bim. He did not see BABBINGTON again until be saw him in bed about eight or nine P. M., and at the same time received information that the knife waa concealed under bis bed-sack ; went for it and found it bloody. HABBIGTON made his attempt to escape subsequently. The knife used was a common sheath knife. The prisoner bad been drunk and quarr oiling, but did not make any threats against any ono when ask? ing for the knife. JNO. FRENCH, soldier, testified that about 8 or 9 P. M. he came into HARRINGTON'S room and saw him hanging bv his hands to the window Bill. HARRINGTON said that if he told he would treat bim bice ELLIOTT. He immediately notified tho Sergeant of it, and he went with a guard and found HARRINGTON lying on the ground under the window-his leg was sprained. He was taken up and carried to the Guard House. P. CAFFEY testified that ho was in CAMPSEN'S bar-room when HARRINGTON carno in. A man named DILLARD was standing outside, and HAR? RINGTON spoke harshly to him. DILLARD came in and said some one wished to fight him. He was advised to sit down. HARRINGTON drew his knife, and was pushed out. They had a fuss previously at the Citadel. Saw ELLIOTT in tho room at tbe same tune, but be bad nothing to do with HAB BTNATON, and did not know who pushed him out. Lieutenant Boss testified to being on duty the day of the murder, and saw HARRINGTON when re? leased Cro.n confinement at guard-mounting, he was thc:; sober ; saw him in the guard-house that night having his leg bandaged-was again sober. This dosed the testimony for the prosecution ; and, the defence having none, the argument for the defence was opened by J. H. NATHANS, who was replied to by the Attorney General, and the defence dosed by L. W. SPBATT, Esq.. Judge Mtrcrao charged the jury who returned a verdict of Manslaughter. . The principal witnesses in this case, who were eye-witnesses of the assault, were stationed at other points, and the proof of tho killing rested upon a few who saw the parties at different times during the day. HARRINGTON confossed to being too drunk to remember any thing of tho transac? tion, but his subsequent conduct proved this to bo false. The Counsel for the defence presented the case in the strongest points, and conduted it with great ability, but the guilt of the prisoner was too dear for bim to escape conviction. UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COUBT-HON. GEO. S. BBTAN, Presiding.-The petition of WK. MUMBO, Esq., to be admitted to practice in tho Courts of the United States in South Carolina, was read by by C. H. SmoNTON, Esq., and on his motion ho was admitted. The case of the Eodgers Locomotivo Works us the trustees of the South Carolina Railroad, was postponed on account of the sickness of J. B. CAMPBELL, Esq., counsel for the defence. WHO WOULD HOT BE BEAUTIFUL?-All may pos? sess a clear, unblemished skin, of alabaster white? ness, by the use of CHASTELLAB'S WHITE LIQUID ENAMEL.
