They sire offering an invoice of very superior Flour at very low figures. Wo commend : all. of our friends to this Louse, who are in want of | a good article of Flour, os we know their stock at J ' present is of a most excellant kind. AT a recent meeting of tho Board of Comniis ai?h?ra of tho Orphan House the following resolu? tion was adopted and ordered to be printed in the ; daily papers: ' ' .' Resotv cL That the thanks of this Board bo ton .doied to Mr. A. F. RaveneL President of theNorth ? eastern Railroad Com jany, for free transportation, and to Jr. P. J. Porcher for the use of his farm at 1 the late pic-nlc given to the children of this insti? tution on Friday, 12th instant. A. Goos FREIGHTS. -The steamship Manhattan, Captain WOODHULL, of the STREET line, and thc .Emily B. Bouder, Captain LEBBY, of the LEASE fine of New York steamors, departed from here on :Saturday afternoon last carrying large and valua? ble cargoes and full passenger hats. In both cases tho agents of th eso vessel s were compelled to re? fuse freight. - It will be noticed by their clearances that the article of vegotablea forms a prominent item. This flattering patronage is largely owing to the wise policy of cheap freights and low pas? senger fare, which is drawing from all quarters. STRUNG OF A STEAMER AT THE WHARF.-The iron steamer Z. B. Vance, which Las Leen employ? ed in carrying freight from this city to various points on the San too River, and whicL was ready to leave here with a cargo of corn, Lacon, and va? rious supplies for the country, sunk at her wharf on Saturday night about eight o'clock. The cause of her sinking is not precisely ascertained, hut she was found to be filling with water very rapidly, ?bout fifteen minutes before sLe went down, and an effort was made to start Ler pumps, but thc leak proved to be so bad as to cause here to fill with water before any effectual efforts could be made to get her steam pumps to work. She now hes.sunk in deep water, part of her cargo and irppor works floating about tho dock, and eomo of tho freight, we are informed, was picked up yes? terday in a damaged condition. A part of her cargo was fortunately in a largo flat, and this por? tion has been saved. The Z. B. Vance was owned, wo learn, by Mr. J. BROWNE, and her ?iniring will inflict a heavy loss on Lim as well as parties who rosy have supplies on board, which were not in? sured. B CLEANING THE STREETS.-Charleston Las always been considered a religions city, and the authori? ties, remembering that "cleanliness next to godli? ness is great grain," have determined to remove that obnoxious element, dust, which is so great a nuisance to the body corporate. To effect this, thosarvicee of the efficient street brigade have Deon secured and aimed with broom and shovel ; they have been sent not to disperse but to collect the enemy. The result of their raid is to Le seen in the clean streets and tho dust-heaps near the aide-walks ; the latter are removed as speedily .au possible, but not unfrequently some malicious gnat scatters a heap to the-four-points of the compass, and the labor af the day is lost. There is nothing more annoying than a cloud of blinding dost whirled in every direction by the wind, and though in some streets it has been kept down by the use of watering carts, yet the heat of the sun soon reconverts the mud into dust, and the reprieve is only temporary. The uso of the sprinkling carts is very desirable, but when the streets are flooded with water, the crossings are almost impassable for ladies, who have-to pick their way daintily if they wish to save their drosses. As only those streets ate watered where the residents pay for the privilege, it ?B evi? dent that the dust will ran riot in localities not thu? favored, unless it is soon removed; but the Street Inspector has taken the matter in hand, and if the work is not interrupted, every street will meet with the same attention, and the summer's sun w?l shine upon a model city. The absence of j dust in several of the prominent thoroughfares proves that the charge of tho brigade has Leen effective, and though a disagreeable necessity in every city, when once removed, it is comparatively au easy matter to keep it under foot in its proper place, and prevent it from raising in clouds that disgust every person who encounters them. j | WHITE POINT GARDEN.-This beautiful promen? ade was visited on Saturday afternoon by a larger number of persons than Lave attended at any pre? vious evening during the present season. Tho weather was charming, and ihe sweet strains of martie music were borne by the zephyrs to every portion of the Battery, and eagerly listened to by hundreds who, while enjoying the invigorating sea Lreeze, were not unmindful of the melody that was floating in the air. The popularity of the Battery has been greatly increased since the intro? duction of the etroot cars, and though the recent changes-t?ave in ? measure' affected their custom, yet on Saturday they were crowded to their utmost capacity, and over two. thousand persons were ena? bled to visit the Battery and enjoy the music, the water and the salt air. It waa;evident, from the:joyous faces soon on Saturday, that it was a season of perfect enjoy? ment; dull care had been thrown aside, and all the vexations and troubles of Ufe were forgotten, for with everything co please, and none to perplex, it was not difficult to imagine tho post but a troubled dream, only to bo remembered when affected with the blues. Unfortunately for the gay promenaders, the nu? merous vehicles on the street raised terrific clouds of dust that threatened destruction to many gauzy bonnets, and interfered considerably with the pleasures of the promenade, as none of thc afflicted visitors were willing to return to their na? tive dust at that tinto, and considered thc insinua? tion aa excessively disagreeable. Wo learn that this dusty visitation will bo obviated in futuro, as arrangements have been inadu to sprL'iklo thc streets, and suppress the nuisance, and by noxt Saturday, if the weather clerk does not interfere, both East and South Bay streets will be woll (or sea) watered, as the latter clement can bo more easily obtained. Notwithstanding tho dust and heat, which were only petty annoyances, many persons remained on the Battery until tho lengthening and thu waning shadows notified thom of tho approa h of night; but fair Luna was in her zenith, and though day? light had gone, few who havo over Lakeu a ramble on th? Battery Ly moonlight would Lcsitate in awarding it the palm. Tho mellow light, and thc dancing, sparkling water, which appeared like a silvery sea kissing the moon Learns, aro too well known to need a description, and proved tc Lo strong, attractions to tLc Battory visitors, who lin? gered until the last car, and tuen loft witL a de teraination.to renew their acquaintance ?n'<he en? suing Saturday. .. BABB WELL.--We had the pleasure last night of grasping the hand of an old acquaintance, Mr. E. A BRONSON, the Editor and Proprietor of the Barn? well b'eiititiel. Mr. BRONSON brings a cheering ac? count from his district, the people aro not de I sponding, but are planting largo crops of cotton, and are anticipating a generous yield. Provisions are planted in many sections, but the most atten? tion is paid to the cotton crop. Mr. BRONSON has visited Charleston ou business connected with his paper, and is stopping at tho Pavilion Hotel. MAYOR'S COOET, May 18.-Floronco Hercules, a very black mau, who made lovo to some iron bo? long ng to the railroad company, was locked up for one week. Ellen Lanueau, a colored woman, who was arrested for taking thc law in her owu hand, and beating a boy in the street, who had stolen an axe from her, and thereby creating a disturbance of the public peace, was made to pay $5. The member of tho Barleycorn Artillery often spoken of by us as a veteran drinker, was up again for getting tight and riotous in a stable ; and as ho exhibited no fear of being kicked out by the horses, he was taken from tho building for beasts by a policeman, at the request of the proprietor, and fined S3. Two ancient mariners were mulcted in $5 each for fighting in the street. COURT OP COMMON PLEAS-Hon. R. MUMBO pre? siding-The entire day was occupied in the call of the City Summary Process Docket. Several cases were tried and a great many decrees given, but by for the majority of cases were continued, on mo? tion or by consent of counsel. One or two cases having remained much longer on the docket than his Honor considered necessary, were stricken off. One in particular had been docketed for the nine? teenth term. The cases were principally snits for sums of $100 and less, and were of no public inter? est. Only a portion of the docket was called, and it will be continued to-day. QUIET OF THE Cm.-It is somewhat remarkable that while other Southern cities have been dis? graced by riots and disturbances, the Palmetto City, the head and front of the whole secession movement, bas not only escaped this stigma, but has been a pattern of morality, peace and quiet? ness. This happy state is due principally to the moderation of her rulers, both civil and military, and also to the disposition manifested by her citi? zens to obey the laws, and not question their righteousness. Never since the close of the war have we enjoyed a period of more perfect repose than the present, at a time, too, when the Radical emissaries are .secretly striving to form antago? nistic parties, and to destroy the friendly feelings now existing between the races. Important changes have been made in corporate bodies, but no riot has followed, they havo been accepted as necessities, unpleasant perhaps, but to bo made the best of and not to be opposed, - A visit to the Mayor's Court any morning would at once convince the most incredulous of th e true quietness of the oity, for the cases brought up are generally trivial offences, such as drunkenness or pilfering, and are not confined to either class. The police are under admirable discipline, and though not officions in the discharge of their duties, are a terror to all evil-doers, who know that the laws cannot be broken with impunity, and seldom at? tempt any rascality on a large scale. While this state of affairs exist, we may confidently expect quiet and peace; and there is no rea-on to look for a chang?, as persons of both clossos feel that it is far better to live in unity than by any turbulent demonstrations to engeuder ill-feeling, that onco raised, cannot be easily quelled. Charleston never was subject to mob law, and though her situation is now somewhat changed, her pride in the past is sufficient to guarantee a similar future. COTTON M KINO.-The superiority of the long staple cotton has been so often vaunted, that tho sea islands of South Carolina were considered tho ore&m of the earth, and the regal authority over vegetable kingdom willingly conceded to their silky staple. The war, and its attendant evils, the destruction of property and the different changes consequent upon ita termination, staggered this belief, as the desolate plantations were not consid? ered capable of producing the same quality of cotton, especially with a different system ot labor. Fortunately the'Southern planters were not con tout to load a life of idleness, but immediately commonccd to repair their ruined fortunes, and by the. aid of Northern skill and ingenuity to es? tablish an agricultural interest which would be superior to that destroyed. In this they have suc? ceeded beyond the most sanguine expectations, and though only two years have elapsed since the dose of the war, yetthe results warrant a contin? uance in. the belief that "Cotton is indeed King." We have had the pleasure of examining a sample . of Sea Island cotton grown by the Hon. JNO. TOWNSEND, on Edisto Island. Thia cotton was raised from seed selected from healthy stalks, and is soft and silky in texture, and by far the best ever brought to this market. Only three bales of J this quality were raised, two of which were shipped to Havre and ono sent to tho Paris Exposition. A proof that thia cotton is far superior to the best long staple- ever - brought to the market, is the price tint it commands among merchants. Three dollars per pound was offered and refused, as it could easily bring three fifty in France, where the rh i er grade? of cotton are extensively us cd in tho manufacture of. different gooda.. Mr. TOWNSEND'S cotton has long been celebrated as the finest over brought' to Charleston, brit this, suppos?es all that he has previously grown, and shows to what per? fection the culture of the plant may be carried. When the question of labor has been definitely Bet tied, and our plantera have adopted the different labor-saving machines and improved methods of J agriculture, we may expect our staple to become finer, softer, and more silky than at present, while at the same time the price will be proportionally improved.. A VERY SUOOESTfTE QUESTION.- . CHARLESTON, S. C. May 19,1867. EDITOR DAILY NEWS: Please to insert the follow? ing questions* in which a good many of our people ire interested at tho present time: Can a Chap? lin in the United States service be eligible to the office of Governor of a State, or to the United States Sonate, or has he a right, either by law or custom, to take a prominent part in-politics ? A definite answer to the above would'relieve the ninds of MANY FREEDMEN.
