TROTT, P. M. POSTOFFICE NOTICE.-An evening mail for Augus? ta and Savannah, and for distribution beyond those offices, will "close daily at the Postoffice at half-past 6 o'clock. ACCIDENTAL DBOWKINO.-We learn that a freed? man named-Wilhams was drowned while fish? ing off Fort Sumter. The body has not been re? covered, and the information was received in this city in a note from the fort SUICIDE.-L. C. JOHNSON, of Borne, Ga., com? mitted suicide at that place on Friday evening last, by shooting himself in the head with a revol? ver. The deceased was*a son of the former Gov? ernor of South Carolina, and is said, by those well acquainted with him, to have had many noble traits of character. * MAYOE'S COUBT.-The only incident that ruffled the smooth surface of this Court was a small mill that occurred between two colored draymen on Atlantic Wharf. Each of the combatants plied their fists with such vigor as to attract the atten? tion of the guardians of the public monds, and ? they finding that moral suasion was wasted, car? ried them to the lock-up, where the Declaration of Independence and the MONEDE doctrine was ex plained to them, and they were shown tho de? preciation of paper money by deducting a "five'> from their stock on hand. THE CITADEL G BEEN.-This public square has I j been considerably improved by the erection of a ' neat and substantial picket fence. The workmen ? were engaged in nailing on the slats yesterday, hut j had nearly completed the sides fronting Meeting < snd Calhoun streets. It is the intention of the au- : thorities to have the grounds farther improved by , shell walks, curbs, Ac. The Citadel Green was al- i ways a favorite pleasure ground for the young peo- < pie, and its renovation will be gratefully appro-1 j cisted not only by them, but by the base baU clubs ] and others, who spend their leisure moments on i that spot THE PROHIBITION TO THE NORTH CAROLINA LE- I orsLATUBZ.-We clip from the Raleigh Progress 11 the following order from General SICKLES, which I < prohibits the assembling of the North Caroliua I ( Legislature : 11 CHARLESTON", August ", 1S67. ] Special Order No. UL IV. The session of the General Assembly of I North Carolina, appointed to'be held at Raleigh on I ] the third Monday.in August next, is hereby post poned until further orders. The commanding j , officer of ti e Post of Raleigh will transmit to the I ; Governor of North Carolina a copy of this order, ; with the request that the same be communicated \ to the presitiing officer and members of the Senate and House of Commons. \ . By oommand of Major General D. E. Sickles. I ; J. W. CLOUS, A. D. C. I j INTENDED LHPBOVEHENTS ON EAST BAY.-The i store lately occupied by Messrs. H. KLATTE & Co., j on the northeast corner of East Bay and Accom- ? modation wharf is now undergoing repairs that, I r when completed, will render it one of tho orna- I j menta of that locality. The budding is the prop-1 ? erty of Messrs. JOHN FERGUSON & Co., and it is f {heir intention to have the store entirely remodel- It ed, extending it through to the warehouse, and ?J finishing it with an ornamental iron front. As it ^ now stands, the building is an irregular collection I p of rooms, connected by crooked staircases, which 11 lenders it somewhat- unsuitable for a large firm, g It is proposed to throw down the partitions and to o modernize the whole structure, and ' the workmen I 8 have already commenced op?r?t i ons, which will soon I n ?bange the entire appearance of the venerable pde. o Tho improvements now visible on Accommodation ? wharf are a proof that the work will not be done jj halfway, but will result in the production of an ?difi?e that wfil compare favorably with others on c the same thoroughfare. * HUNGARIAN GRASS SEED ron DISTRIBUTION.-Mr. j s fTaf. THAT EB, Au* this city, has received a bag of 0 the above seed for general distribution. This I ?j need has excited considerable interest in Louisiana e> and Texas, and the reports from those sections all r< commend its general adoption fer a forage crop. ^ Mr. THAYEB can be found at the Bank of Charles? ton, where ha trill distribute the seed to appli cants. As a proof of the value of this seed, and of tho light in which it is regarded by those who have planted it, we give below sn extract from the ^ Monthly Report of the Department of Agricul? ture: . "The Department of Agriculture having recent- F ly sent to the Southern and Southwestern States a oj quantity of the Hungarian grass seeds, and in- sc quines, having been made as to ita nature and tl manner of culture, Ac, it has been deemed proper to give the information sought. ?Matty farmers have kept both horses and horn? ed stock through the winter with no other feed than Hungarian grass-the animals coming ont of pc winter quarters in superior condition. This grass j is now generally used, and highly esteemed for forage ; is used green or dry ; is very productive, ^ of quick growth, and flourishes well in dry sod. n Frjjrr, in his valuable work on grasses, says of m tbs Hungarian millet: It is an annual forage ~ plant, germinates readily, withstands the drought remarkably, remaining green even when other vegetation is parched np, and, if arrested in dry k weather, the least rain will restore it ; furnishes I N] an abundance of green fodder relished by all kinds of stock ; it flourishes in somewhat light and dry I ' soils, attains great luxuriance in soils of medium I ( consistency and well manured. It may be sown I at broadcast, or in drills, and cultivated precisely rel like other varieties of millet." I 1 . _Q_ bel CHARLESTON AND HEB PROSPECTS.-The near J approach of autumn, and tho continued good re ports from the crops, has already infused some life in the business circles. Preparations a?e be? ing made for the approaching fall trade, and our merchants confidently expect a good and prosper- jj ons business season, when tho cry of "Hard I I pat Times" will be heard again no more. There aro all no clouds in the horizon, for every agent has ?worked together for the good of Charleston, and unless some unforeseen misfortune should occur, j she will this winter enter upon a career of pros- sr parity that will continue until tho past is not only i regained bat farther progress attained. The dil- Ac. isrent railroads connecting with the city have ? buried past dissensions, and are using every effort to '.promote the welfare of this port. Floor has already been brought from Tennessee, and if the 1 proper course is pursued, Charleston will soon m" fulfill her manifest destiny by becoming tho outlet I T for a large portion of the Southern and Western Je country. The knowledge of her facilities for transacting p business induced the budding of the Memphis and - Charleston Railroad, and was the means of start? ing-many similar enterprises, which are now par? tially completed. It is a known fact that trado T will seek the shortest channels, and the public r spirited men of the day saw that the noarest route *T from Tennessee, Kentucky, and Southern Ohio, to cr0\ the sea, was by way of Charleston. Flour is now nesi taken from Nashville to New York for an amount aro somewhat lower than that - freight charged to nevi Charleston, bat efforts aro being mado to havo mer this latter tariff reduced, and it eau then be ship- qu? ped to this point and reshipped to Now York at a v; comparatively low figure. Thoso views aro not 11118 chimerical, but aro advocated by enterprising men rai" in both sections, and they look forward to tho ~j? time when Charleston will attain tho commercial He. position which her many advantages destine her Iv ^ to fill I ous Possessed of a magnificent harbor, affording am- a gi pie accommodation for vessels, and with a depth in c of water on her bar that is greater than that of tem most Southern cities, there is nothing to prevent 010 Charleston from becoming tho market for.the pro ductb of the great Wost, besides retaining her ^ business relations with the neighboring States. _ The prestige established by Charleston during the late war will never depart from her, and though she has suffered from the fire and the sword, this has only retarded her advancement; her former ti ade is fast returning to her, new en- desi terprises have been started, aaa if sufficient cn- J coursgement is only given to mechanics and la- * boring men to cause them to make this their ,ldai home, the march of progress will be rapid and ^rtain. M DIVINE SES VICE.-Tho Rev. Dr. MYERS will de? liver a sermon in the Hasel steet Synagogue, to? morrow morning, at half-pasi 10 o'clock, on Ser? mons. Dr. MYERS' abilities as an orator and scholar are so well known, that the mere an? nouncement of his intention will be sufficient to ensure a good audience. NEW BOOKS.-We have recored from Mr. M. M. QUINN, copios of Orville Colego, by Mrs. HENEY WOOD, author of East Lyme, and Tho Rebel Chief, by GUSTAVE AIMARD, authorof thr Prairie Flower, and other works. The Re>el Chief is a tale of guerilla life, and will pro'o interesting to thoso who havo somo experience ia this mode of warfare. Both of these Books rxo well gotten up, and from a cursory glance at titoir contents, will well repay tho time spent in their peiusah Mr. QUINN has a large and full supply of modern literature at his King Street Stand, and csn accommodate bis cus? tomers with the latest novels and periodicals.

OPINIONS OF THE PEOPLE t ALLENDALE,? BARNWELL DISTRICT, S. C., ) March 1, 1867. J Messrs. Lillie ??. Mantell : GENTLEMEN : I used, during the past season, ono of "Ingersoll's Portable Cotton Presses," purchased of you loot September. I have always been pi ejudiced in favor of the "Screw Press," and nothing but dire necessity in? duced mo to try any other. I taku pleasure, however, in adding my testimony in favor of its entire adaptation to tho wants ot a cotton plantation. It hos surpassed my most sanguino expectations. I have packed with but two hands, yet I prefer four-two at each lover. My bales all weighed over OOO lbs. The first lot T sent to market averaged 502 l .,s. My impression is that 500 lbs. is about thc capacity of tho Press, and a greater number of pounds subject tho foilow-block to too much risk, un? ices tho sides of tho cotton box was increased. It would ?ld greatly to tho value of the Press if the cotton box was ten inches longer. In haste, I am, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, kc, li. W. LAWTON. P. S. I took my Press down and carried it some four miles to pack thc crop of a neighbor, who failed to have a "Screw" built; lin was so much pleased that he has determined to abandon tho "Screw" and purchase "In? gersoll's Press." B. W. L. OFFICE OF KINO'S MOUNTAIN RAILROAD CO?TANT, I YouEVTLLE, S. C., April 15,1867. . J GENTLEMEN : I have just received your lotter ot Feb ruary Pith-upon my return to this place, alter an ab? sence of two months-and this reply may be too late Tor your "Descriptivo Circular of Ingersoll's Cotton Press." Tim Press I used iu packlug my cotton last yoar worked admirably, packing, with ease from 600 to 625 lbs. With good activo hands to work it, I am satisfied that from eighteen to twenty bales might readily be pocked in a day. This Pr ss combines tho advantages of lightness, and consequent portability and simplicity (being easily man? aged bjr any ono of ordinary intelligence). Groat com? pressing force, with little motive, power, and "lost, but not least," it is worked entirely by hand, thus saving for tho farm horses tho hard labor imposed upon them by the uso of tho ordinary "Screw."
