KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we moat re? spectfully aak the patronage of our frieuds. Post oaico .Votier. POST OFFICE, [ CHABLESTON, S. C., July G, 1867.

Mr. KINSMAN possesses a magician's wand, and what is not worth a fig, becomes valuable confectionery when it emerges from his laboratory. ARREST AND TRIAL OF THE PRICE MURDERERS. The Augusta papers contain an account of tho ar? rest and trial of certain parties implicated in the murder of Mr. PRICE, of South Carolina, near Quaker Springs. The Chronicle & Sentinel says the two negroes arrested for the murder of the late Mr. PRICE, near Quaker Springs, had a preliminary examination before Judge MCLAWS yesterday. One of the negroes made a full confession, giving the names of all the parties engaged in the murder. '.Tho examination will be continued to-day. To SES OURSELVES AS OTHERS SEE Us.-The Scottish bard wished in vain for this gift; but if ho had lived in the present day his desire would have been gratified, and he could have secured his representation in a short time. There are few arts that have made auch rapid strides as that of pho? tographing, and the sun's rays are now made to produce results that at most seem magical. The desire arning mankind to give their features to posterity is universal, and the picture galleries in every city are visited daily by numbers for this purpose. Some of these photographers are vete? rans in the profession, and have gained a high reputation as artists; but few can compete with Mr. GEO. S. COOK of this city, and his gallery in King street is always crowdod by parties desirous of having their features faith Tully delineated. IMPORTANT TO MERCHANTS.-Since tho night trains have been re-established on tho South Caro? lina Railroad the trafic between this city and other points has been largely increased and the accommodation thus presented to merchants has enabled thom to make shipments with promptness. The Southern Express Company has never been behind tho age, but has always endeavored to fa? cilitate business men in their engagements. In? fluenced by those motives they have recently placed messengers on the night trains between t'iis city and Augusta, who are prepared to take charge of all goods intrusted to them. This action on the part of the Express Company will provo very ac? ceptable to our merchants, both now and during the fall trade, for shipments of money or gx>ds can be made with caro and a prompt delivery en? sured. , A CORRESPONDENT of the Darlington Southerner gives the following account of the accident men? tioned in the telegraph column of yesterday's is? sue: y "This morning about 5 o'clock ?. M., the pas? senger train ran over and lulled two yoong women. The accident occurred near the public road, on the west aide of Sparrow Swamp, as the morning train waa going to Kingsville. The names of the unfor? tunate ones were MARTHA and SUSAN DOBITHT. It appears that they had been out until a late hoar at night and started home, and stopped to rest awhile on the track of the Wilmington and Manchester Railroad-fell asleep, and was ran over as above stated, killing SUSAN instantly, and horribly mangling MARTHA, who survived a few hours, to tell the dreadful story. "A. B. BRISTOW, Esq., summoned a jury of in? quest, who, after investigating the matter, ren? dered a verdict according to the above facts." Dis MODENWELT.-The first number of this beautiful Fashion Journal has just been received from Europe, and in its salutatory says: The great difficulty in getting a correct translation has caus? ed the delay. The papers will be translated in*, o English, and give more of the useful than all the other illustrated papers put together. Each pa? per gives eight pages of finely executed cuts, representing monthly everything in the way ot dress that is beautiful and to be desired by tho ladies. In addition to the papers there is a finely executed pattern sheet, giving during the year somewhere between three hundred and four hun? dred finery drawn patterns well explained and easily to bo taken oft The superiority and utility of these patterns will soon be seen and appreciated by those who have been in the habit of getting plain or trimmed patterns from some of our common pattern shops. As the Modemodl is from the very seat of fash? ion, it will become a popular magazine with the ladies. The subscription price is only $3, and it will eoon be found at every well conducted news' yBtand. THE FALL TRADE.-In a few weeks the Fall trade of Charleston will open, and though it will not compare with that of former years, yet it is ex? pected to be an improvement on that of last spring. Throughout the whole country the crops are good, and some sections that have heretofore been noted for their sterility have prodnoed abun? dantly, and there ?ill even be a surplus for expor? tation. This result is extremely gratifying not only to the planter, but to the people at home, as all are affected by Iiis success or ill luck. The de -pression caosod by the failure of last year's orop has been removed and if the right steps are now taken the State will soon regain her former pros? perity, and Charleston become again a large com? mercial city. The merchants of Charleston have always been considered an active and enterprising olass, and have used every effort to promote the wel? fare of the city. Before the war this was compara? tively easy, bot tho subsequent destruction of pro Iporty, and the break on tho railroads, turnod the trade into other channels, and as soon after the surrender as practicable tho New Ycrk houses it drummers into the country, who wero cm Dwered to bring the trade to that city-. Induce? ments were offered that few could resist. They were lot pressed for old debts, and were sold goods on ie-. Charleston was then in no condition to 'compete with the parties, although sho has since endeavored to regain some of her lost trade, but the high freights and other causes have operated against her. We learn from a gentleman of this city who has just returned from the country that thc prospects are fair for a good trade; but tho Northern drum? mers have been every where, and have mads such representations that many will purchase their goods in New York. None deny that Charleston is in every respect equally as good a nnrket as Now York, and that goods can be bought hero fully as cheap; but there have been fow drummers sont ont from Charleston, and no inducements offered to secure the trade. This has operated badly; for many who still retain their affection for this city think that it is not the market it was, and go to other points to purchase their goods. It should be the duty of the merchants to correct thoso misapprehensions, and to show that they arc not only prepared to sell on favorable terms, but have full stocks, which embrace every article ncedod by the trade. Preparations are now being mado for the fall trade, a few country morohants, the van guard of the army, have already arrived, and Hayno and Meeting streets and East Bay will soon ahakc off the lothargy that has characterized them during tho summer, and become again busy bustling thoroughfares. Tho stocks in every store aro full and complete, and visitors will find that thc prices are the same as those askod in other cities. It has been decided among the merchants to lower the tariff M much aa possible, and to ask a uniform price for a certain standard of goods. Tb is will be a great advantage to tho buyer, and will facili? tate the transaction of business. Tho city is per? fectly healthy, and every elomont seems favorable to a good trade. Our country friends can visit us with safety, and will soon be convinced that Charleston presents every advantage to a buyer, and can compete with any city North or South as Oj market. COBONEB'S INQUEST.-Coroner WETTING he inquest yesterday morning over the body of Mooro, a color od youth soventeer, years of ag? who had boen in tho employ of Dr. G EDI Elias, in company with several of his compat wont on Thursday night to the flood gate of netta Mill Pond, near tho west end of street, for the purpose of swimming. Tb ceased was unable to swim, but dovo inte water, roquosting his companions to look ou him. Not appearing again, they bscamo alar and reported tho facts to tho Guard House, next morning the body was found, and a jur; iug impanneled, rendered a verdict of acrid drowning. MAYOR'S COUBT, J.l'y 2C-An individual was red hot with valor and whiskey took a poe in tho Charleston Hotel and smote the air his words, was surprised to find himself arr( by the police for disorderly conduct, and still 1 ho when he was sent to the Provost Marsha carrying a concealed weapon. A disciple of WALTON, who thought tba was fish that came to his net, endeavored to i the matter euro by stealing a net. This pnx ing was not popular among his brother aug and tho theif was locked up with instruct.OL study the Commandments more closely. Two feminines, one plain and the other 1 molasses color, had a slight misunderstand which caused them to move gently on each o and pull their hair in a cheerful manner. 1 demonstration was followed by similar manift lions until thc furies woro separated. A seDt of ten day's confinement was imposed, wi with homeopathic doses of bread and water, molify their feelings of anger toward each othc Two peripatetic vendors of news commenci friendly discussion on literature, but becon wanned np by tho argument, procoeded f words to blows, and were establishing their o ions by forcible means when interrupted. A of $5 not only ruined their finances, but t stock in trade became stale, fiat and unprofita and somo of their customers were deprived of tl morning NEWS. COUBT OF GENERAL SESSIONS AND COM? PLEAS-Hon. F. J. MOSES prosiding-W. D. I TEB, Esq., opened the argument for the defenc the case of Mrs. CONLON VS. tho City of Char ton, and engagod the attention of tho Court u ono o'clock. A short recess was thon granted the expiration of which Judge MOSES charged Jury, who found a verdict of $5000 for the plain The facts in this case aro familiar to mos our readers, and it is known that tbe Coron Jury, while they found a vordict of accidei death, severely censured tho proper authorit for a ncgloct of their duties. CONLON (the cased) had boen a stecpleman for a numbei years, and was a sober steady man. At the ti of the accident the belfry of the steeple was bei prepared for the new chimes br FBEDEBI au old rigger. It was necessary,^ open the tr doors for this worn, but when the hands w knocked off at night tho door was still left op and the unfortunate steepleman, in going to po t, fell through from tho second story to flags below, and was instantly killed. For a lc timo tho stoeplemea had been in .the habit of, ing to their posts without a lantern, and COM know the route so thoroughly that he did not o sider if. necessary to supply himself with one. lt was contended that the rule requiring < steepiemen to take a lamp should have been i forced, and that the steeple should have been am i ned after tho workmen had left. The accid? was caused by the negligence of the city s s vants, and that, fact, in connection with the tee mony elicited, induced the jury to find for i plaintiff. UNITED STATES DLSTBIOT COUBT-Judge BBI presiding.-United States vs. seventeen barrels distilled spirits, sixty-nine empty barrels, & claimed by W. H. KIDD, condemned on verdict guilty on an information of forfeiture for viniati of Internal Revenue laws. Tho following ordor waa entered, W. H. Kn claimant in tho above entitled caso, having fil his notico of appoal to the Circuit Court : , On motion of T. D. COBBIN, District Attorney the United States for South Carolina, ordere That said W.

UNITED STATES COUBT IN ADMIRALTY-Jud BRYAN Presiding.-JAMES REGAN VS. Captain Li COLN, of the bark Anne Kimball, and-FULTC the Mate. This was a libel for assault and batte on the high seas. United States Attorney COBBI was proctor for the libellant, and Messrs. A. ] BBOWN and W. E. MOCKI.L were proctors for i spondont. The hearing of the testimony ai arguments occupied the Court the whole of Thur day and yesterday, when, at a lato hour, the ca was closed, and the Court decreed that Capta LINCOLN pay a fine of $50 and tho costs of the sui In tho case of RICHARD ARNOLD va. the steam Moneka, libelled for damages to freight, heal some time since, the following order was made : Bichar? Arnold va. Steamship Moneka. The claim in this case is for tho value of tn horses, one dying at Bea and tho other on hindi nj and for damage done to a third with expenses ii cident to his care and cure, and the expenses i bringing said horses to Charleston iho libel tiled against the Moneka aa a common carrier, ia admitted tbat the Moneka is a common carrie and that the horses did die, and that tho thir was injured. But it is contended that though common carrier, the liability was limited by special contract, and if not relieved from Uabilil by such contract, yet that the loss and damag were caused by the peril of the sea and the inev table consequences of a gale. Upon a most careful examination of tho law an evidence in this case, the Court is satisfied tin the respondent has failed to make out the i ^pre? contract agroonent or stipulation which tho la makes necessary to limit his liability. But granting that such stipulation, agre em cr or express contract wero made out, it could nc shield the vessel from its own acts and givo hi puni tv to negligon .<> or misconduct, or relieve th ship from losses accruing from such negligenco c misconduct. The Court is satisfied that the death of the tw horses and the injury to the third is properly rc ferable to the unskilful, unsufficient stowage, an not to the gale. It is, therefore, ordere1 and decreed that th owners of the Moneka do pay to tho libellant three hundred dollars for each of the horsos dvin as aforesaid, and three hundred dollars for dam ages dono to tho surviving horse, and tbo charge incident to bis keeping, and cure, and the loss o his service; also, one hundred dollars for the ex pensos incurred in bringing out tho Horses-in al the sum of ono thousand dollars, with costs o suit.

The most distinguished physicians in tho United States havo recently been placed on tho witness stand, and havo, with ono voice, declared that pure stimulants oro valuable medicinal agents.

Its basis is tho alcoholic prin? cipio of the finest rye grow n in the United States, and its herbal ingredicnta comprise the extracts of a largo num? ber of plants, barks and roots produced in various parts of the world, and all noted in thc countries to which they are indigenous for their powerful sanativo proper? ties. As an iuvigorout and tonic, thc value of the Bit? ters can scarcely be overrated. Hence its extraordinary effect in fever aud ague and intermittents and remit? tents of every type.
