ADVENT SuecDAY.--Tc-morrow being the first
Sunday in tho month of December, and the noar
est to St. Andrew's day, is called Advent Sunday,
and will ba celebrated by appropriate services m
the different Catholic and Episcopalian Churches.
The four weak* immediately preceding Christmas
are collectively styled Advent, in reference to the
coming o:ieoratioa of tae birth of the Savioui.
With this period the Ecole ?iastical or Christian
year is held to commence, and t :e Cist Sunday 01
these four weeks is termed Advent Sunday, lt is
alwavs the nearest Sunday to tho feast of St. An?
drew, whether beforo or after that day, so that in
all casas the season of Advent shall contain the
uniform number of four Suadays.
THE BLACK CBOOK.-ibis great drama bids fair
to become as popular in Charleston as tn Now
Yjrk. It has been repioduccd every night tub
week, and has on each occasion been witnessed by
larger audiences. For the past two nights the
theatre has been crowded, every seat <vas secured,
and a large crowd was in constant attencanoe a:
the ticket offico. Wo learn from our country ex?
changes that the excitement throughout the State
ia intenso, politics aro forgotten, and every one
seems to have Biack Crook on the brain. Num?
bers are now preparing to visit the city, and we
predict for the managers unlimited success while
the Crook continues lo be tho attraction. It is the
great play of tho age, and all should see it.
BONNETS.-There is no striking novelty in bon?
nets to be chronicled this month. Tho Fanchon
shape appoars to be a general favori le, and much
oalled for. The standing front, with its d.adem of
flowers, and a crown worn upon tho top of tho
head, is not decidedly becoming to any but a pret?
ty face. Soft while felt bonnets, tastefully
trimmed, are pretty, and not very expensive. A
beautiful royal velvet is trimmol with lace o? the
same shape, and salin daisies glittering w.th tiny
dewdrops. A new device in millinery is to have
flowers with their leaves and tendrils so arranged
upon the bonnot that they can bo removed and
worn upon the hair. This is only for theso whom
necessity forces to practice eccnomy, and cannot
well purehase a new coif ure for 0 ich evening's
entertainment. The round hats aro small, with a
narrow brim, or none at all, and deeorated with
willowy plume; or velve; bands. Flowers aro
fashionable for decorating tho hair, and are also
worn noon the neo : and arms. A set comprises
head-dress, necklace and bracelots.
A MLLTTAEY TniAL.-For moro than two weeks
past, says the Columbia Phoenix, a Military Com
znlsaioK has been sitting in Columbia, upon tho
trial of C?arge3 growing out of a robbery commit?
ted on the Sonth Carolina Railroad, about a year
ago, and also of a charge cf conspiracy between
E. Carter Harris (a section master on the road),
and Jonn Montgomery, a freedman, together with
some four cr five ethers, to tear up tho track cn
the occasion of tho calamity cf that kind, which
ocean ed on tho morning of tte 13th ult. This
latter case was concluded yesterday, tho written
defence and rep y being submitted.
There is stillacnso against John Aloctgoicry
alone, making the direct charge of tearing up tho
track. But as ho has admitted thc commission of
the deed, in the cause already heard, it is presumed
this latter charge wil not present any now matter
of interest. Of "ourse, tho result of thc cases
heard w?l not be linown until published in General
Orders from Genend Canby.
PicarjocKETS.-Thc amusements at present ia
Charleston have brought to tho city a number of
disreputable characters, prominont among wi-om
are a detachment of tho li;;ht-fiagered gentry.
These plunderers loiter about tho depots a.id at
the entrance to the theatre, and watch their opooi
trinity to pick the pockotacf their unsuspecting
neighbors. Charleston has been 60 long spared
the pr. senceof thcoo viilains that few persons take
any precautions to sesura their property, av. i au
expert disciple of Fagan can pursue his unhaiiowed
coarse with impunity. Tas dosiro to seo th'. Black
Crook is so great that thc crowd beforo thc ticket
box ie frequently four orfivo t^ecp, and a good per?
former can relievo several poeke.ts without cxc.ticir
suspicion. One of tho fraternity vras tempted on
Thursday night, at the tueatre, to ap >ropriate a
fine watch, and mado a sudden wrenci: at tte
chain, but failed to secare thc prize. He was coi
lared, but on insist :n<j that his button Lad caught
the chttin, was ::elee.;ed. Tho detectives hevo
most of these characters spotted, but tho safest
comee to pursue wooli be to avoid all exposure of
property, and when standing in a crowd to pocket
the watch and watch tho pocket at the samo time.
ST. AJTDBEW'S DAY.-St. Andrew was the scz of
a fisherman in GaUtlee, and was one or tho dis?
ciple* of John tho Baptist, but afterwards, w:?i
his brother, Simou Peter, attached thenucLvoi to
the Saviour, and became one of his little band of
followers. After the ascension, thc name of St.
Andrew is not mentioned ia the Now Testament,
but ho is behoved to have travelled as a mission?
ary through a greater part of Asia and Europe,
and to have suffered martyrdom about 70, A. D.,
at the city of Pitra, in Achaia. Tho Roman pro?
consul,^ is said, caused him io be first scourged
and then crucified. Tho latter punisbnv it nc
underwent iu a peculiar manner, bom.: i tonc?
by cords instead of nails to tho cross, to produce
a lingering death by hunger and thirst, wit.ic the
instrument of puni-ahment it J elf. initcd of bo ag
T shaped, was in thc iurm of 3D X, or wh-t is
called a cross decussate.
The body of St. Andre v was embalmed and hon?
orably interred, but in the early part cf thc fourth
century it was removed by the Emperor const_n_
tine to Bysantium, where it was deposited ir. a
church ersctcd in honor oi tho twetve Apostles.
About thirty years after the death of Constant:?.:.,
in 868 A. D., a pious Greek monk conveyed the re?
mains of St. Andrew to Scotland, and there de?
posited them on the eastern coast of Fife, where
Le built a church, and where afterwards croso thc
renowned city and Cathedral of St. Andre Vs.
Whitever credit m.iy be given to this legend, it
is certain that St. Andrew 1ms always been regard?
ed as the patron Saint of .Scotland, and bis div,
the 30:h or November, is a favorite occasion 0*
social and national reurion amid Scotchmen resid?
ing ID England and other places abroad. The
commencement of tho Ecclesiastical Year is/regu
Jated by the feast of St. Androw, the noarest Sun*
day to wbioh, whether beforo or alter, constitutes
the flwt Sunday in Advent. St. Andrew's day is
thus sometimes the first and som?t.me3 tho last
festival in the Christian year.
A SEW SOURCE OF WEALTH.
IMPORTANT DISCOVER? NEAR CHARLESTON
nrjIINSE DEPOSITS OF THOSPHATES ON THE BAKES
OF THE lEHLET.
ROIOIATIOS OR A COMPACT TO UTILIZE TUB SEW HE
BOUB:ES.
&c., ic, Jte.
The hidden resources o?" our State are boinsr
gradually brought to light and made available
through tho researches of her scientific men.
Lands that were heretofore considered useless
have been fo mi to abound in mineral productions,
and the pick and hammor of the geologist con?
stantly snow that nature has in hor hidden store?
house bountiful deposits of the various materials
that havo beon considered peculiar to other
climes. At Granitoville a large deposit of burr
stone of tho Gnest quality ha * been discovered.
This kind of steno wai for a long time imported
i rom France, but tbc quarnos of that country are
nearly exhausted, and it has beeu found necessary
to clamp the smollor fragments together in order
to furnish a stono of largo dimensions. Other dis?
coveries have been recently mado that aro of far
greater importance, and bid fair to revolutionize
aomo branches of trade by supplying to the world
a superior article of puo?phated manures from an
inexhaustible deposit almost at our own doors.
For some time the community have been startled
by rumors that a large supply of a superior quality
ot fertilizing material had been discovered near
tho city. These rumors were not unfounded, and
a company has been organized to utilize the ma?
terial so bountifully supplied by nature. Professor
F. S. Holmes, in connection wi h other distinguish?
ed chemists, has for some time been engaged in
analytical experiments which have at length pro?
duced a result which will give to Charleston a large
exporting tindo, and create a business that will
speedily restore her former prestige.
Thc deposits rciorrod lo extend along the banks
of tho Ashley river for miles, and consist of decom?
posed bones and other animal matter, solidified
until they havo attained tho consistency of soft
:>touc. Some samples have baen found to contain
: rom CO to 75 per cent, of pure phosphates, tfnd
there is every indication tb t the whole bed is
formed of a manuro which is rnoro valuable than
thc Peruvian guano which sells at $90 per ton.
The deposits cover many square mile3, and may
produce tens of millions of dollars. Charleston,
through her manuro bods, mav become larger and
I moro wevthy than New York or New Orleans.
Speuraons of this marl or deposit were taken to
Philadelphia and shown to the Presidents and offi?
cers ot tho largo fertilizing works in that city.
They immediately attracted attention, as ou being
subjected to a close analyds, they showed a very
large per centago of phosphate of limo, and a min?
ing and manufacturing company was at once or?
ganizad, all tho stock being taken and paid in.
The deposit was found on the plantatio a of Pro?
fesor Holmes, on the Ashloy river, a few miles
from tho city, but tho company have seemed a
Iar;ro tract of land adjoining, and design com?
mencing operations at au early day. The charter
of tho company was granted by Chancellor John?
son, in accordance with the provisions mado by
tho State Lsgishturo, under the name of the
Charleston Mining and Manufacturing Company,
.vidi a capital of $1,000,000. This company will
havo itspn.cipal office in ^barleston, which at
present will be loctted tu the rear of Professor
Holmes' bookstore.
At a reo9nt mooting of tho Board of Directors,
held in this city, thc C mpany was fully organized
and our esteemed follow-citizon, Professor F. S.
Holues, was unanimously elected President and
Geologist; Dr. N. A. Pratt, a distinguished ana?
lytical chemist, was cleated the Chemist and Su?
perintendent of the Works, und Mr. Arthur H.
Locko, Secretary of tho Company.
We congratulate Dr. Pratt in having secured tho
means necessary to carry out the oherishod scheme 1
that brought him to our city two years ago.
Professor Holmo3 and Dr. Pratt aro justly entitled
to tho credit of bavins: inaugurated this enterprise;
and thc untiring labors of the former gentleman
in tho cause of science have at last met their re?
ward.
THE RETBENCHMENT MOVEMENT-THIBD READ?
ING OF THE BILL.-An adjournod meeting of tho
City Council was beld last night, for the further
consideration of tho Bill report.d by tho Commit- '.
tea ou Ways and Means. Proscnt-Mayor Gaillard, I
Aldormca Wragg, Gerdts, O'Neill, Steinmover, '
Oakes, Willis, Olney, Courtenay, Pringle and Bav
onoJ.
Alderman Cosgrove pr-posed that the number
of policemen be 150, wh.ch was lost.
Alderman Courtenay proposed 125, which was
lost.
Alderman Gordts 6aid that tho object of Council
was retrenchment, and it was best to fix the price
to bc paid first, and then to fix tho number of men.
ibo Council could pay $15 per month, instead of
$50, and take a proportionately larger number of
men. Tliis would roduco tho expenses about
$35,100. One hundred police were too littlo, as
tho c.ty was so large.
Alderman Marshall i aid that if one hundred and
fifty men were retained they could not be had for
less than $50 per month. That waa why the Com?
mittee Lad reduced tho numbors. $15 would not in?
duce the mon to do their duty well. In making a
reduction in numbors tho Committee might havo
errol, Lut .urce mouths pay was already duo tho
police, and if samo total cost romainod the indebted?
ness must iucreasc. The idoa was to reduce ex?
penses and soo that taxes were paid in, BO that
eveiy mau might bo paid his due.
Alderman Cosgrove said tho money had beerj in
thc troasury, and tha Police ought to havo been
paid.
Alderman Willis said that the numbor of Detec?
tives should be increased, as many of thom had
been constantly called for by tho military.
Tho Mayor suggested that tho pro30at number
(eight) bo rotaiuod, aud this was carried.
Tho May. r, in reply to a remark ci ild nnan
Cosgrove, said that the police could not have boen
pa.d as stated. Oa the 23th and 28th ot August,
$20,000 was in tho troasury, but no call was made
for police nay, and no pay was due, until the be?
ginning of September, and, boloro that t.me, the
money in the treasury had been paid out to meet
otlior liabilities or the city.
Tho Mayor also said that up to July the police
had accepted payment in city bills, that is, they
tjok them whilo they could be sold at 10 per cent,
discount. Very low of tho police had more t-an
j four mouths pay duo them.
Tho Council then went into tho consideration of
jtii9Eect:oa reg jhting the pay of the officers and
privates ot po.ico, wn.cb, as reported, was carried.
Alderman Bavcnel, in tho course of tho discus?
sion, said that last year had boen a hard vcar, and
that whica was coming would be a harder one.
Ibo produio of tho country was falling in price
day by day, and where wa3 more money to come
from? If tho city bad money ho would increase
ibo police in numbers and increase their paj, but
th.s could no. uow be doao. No mau found it
easy to pay taxo a, and ho Dogged the Council to
pause before adopting any resolution that looked
to increasing the outlay recommended by tho
Commut?e. He thought that tho pay of the po
iico should bo reduced to $10, and that, at that
price, men c^uld bo obtainod who would be as
j good as those whom tho city now had.
I Alderman Willis wantod to know who would bc ?
diccbarced if thc polico were cat down from 150 to
100. Ile hoped that those to wijom tho city owed
.coney would bo paid before th?y wera cist adrift.
Thc officers Lad been paid regularly, bat to tho
private? several months' pay was due.
? bo Mayer said I hst the city officers had been
paid because they had accepted city bills, which
j the police Tvould ::ot do.
Aller a further discussion the bill -.vas read a
j second and a third time, and the title ordored to
be changed to an o:d.nance.
Thc following is tho bill as read a third time :

Alderman Marshall stated that ho would bring
to the attention of Council several points that
were not recommonded in tho bill, but which de?
manded considaration :
1st. That all further work upon the Artesian Well
bo suspended, and that the Mayor employ akeoper
of the prornisPS at the sum staten in tho b.ll.
2d. The Committee recommended that tho Trus?
tees of the Charleston College endeavor to make
the institution self-supporting, as, in tho impover?
ished condition of tho city, Council will find it im?
possible to assist them.
SJ. The Committoo recommend that tho Mayor
make a monthly rsport to Council of tho operations
of the drains, and the cost of tho samo during tho
month, and that no bills bo paid by tho City
Treasurer (exept salines and contract work),
unless having been passed by Council.
Alderman Cosgrove offered a resolution that the
keeper of the Artesian Well be oloctod by ballot
in Council, and not bo appointed by tho Mayor as
stated; which was adopted.
Alderman Wragg stated, for tho information of
the Council, that io his position as Chairman of
tho Committee on Tidal Drains he bad prepared
careful reports, which ho had presented to Council
monthly, showing the amount of expenditure and
the work done Council, at the timo, objected to
hearing th^so reports and they were received as
information. Tuese reports had been carefully
preserved and could be laid befo.e Council at any
moment if so desired.
Alderman O'Neill ata'.od that thc Cork of Coun?
cil had present d a bill to tho Charleston Hotel for
the uso of Artesian water during the past two
years. As one of tho executors of Mr. Whito be
wished to ask for information on this subject and
present a probst from the joint executors.
Alderman Wragg stated that a resolution had
passed tho present Council that $500 be charged
the Charleston Hotel for tho use of tho Artesian
water, though, to his knowledge, this sum had
uever been collected. He referred to tho back
records, when Mr. Daniel Mixer had applied for
the privilege of putting down the pipes and con?
veying the Artesian water to the hotel, lt was
hu impression that a stipulated sum was agreed
upon, but as far as informed no money hr.d over
been collected.
At the request cf Alderman O'Nsill, the Mayor
read the protest ol the Execut irs of Mr. White,
Messrs. J. F. O'Neill, Thaddeus Kelly, and Rev
T. A. Shad er. This protost showed that Mr.
Daniel Mixer had at his own expense laid tho
pipes to tho well and secured tho water for the
hotel under a stipulation that he could uso the
same freo of expense until tho city was preparad
to furnish u supply of the water to tho citizens.
The water in tho hotel had at different times been
of great benefit to tho community as furnishing a
supply to tho engines at the fires in the vicinity of
the hotel, and at any similar contingency a similar
supply could bc obtained. Under these circum?
stances the executors deemed tue action of Council
in presenting a bill as erroneous, and they prayed
a further consideration of tho matter.
On motion of Alderman Couttcnay the matter
was referred to the Committoo on the Artesian
Well.
Alderman Wragg stated that as tho matter of re?
trenchment was now bofore Council ho wished to
bring to their attention the fact that reform should
not be confined alone to cutting down expenses,
but caro should bo taken to ob.ain a full and cor?
rect report of all expenditures, and Standing
Committees should bo authorized to make regular
monthly reports. Ho offered a resolution to this
effect, which was laid over for consideration until
the next regular moatin
Alderman Courtenay stated that thero were
always three reporters from tue daily papers pre?
sent at each mcoting, und at present there were
no suitable accommodations ; ho thcreforo offered
tho following resolution, which was unanimously
adopted :
Rt sc Iced, That tho Clerk be requested to fur?
nish moro convenient ucc:mmoaations for the
thteo City Reporters, and that thc exponso of tho
same be paid on the order of his Honor thc Mayor.
Alderman Cosgrove moved that tho City Treasu?
rer be requested to furnish Council with the
names of all delinquent tax-payers, and tho
amounts due by each.
Council then adjourned.

NEOBO VOTINO IN SOUTH GASOLINA.-The anuex
od extract from a lotter o? a gentleman residing on
tho Sea Islands, dited Beaufort, S. C., November
22J, to a clergyman in Ea'.timore, which wo fir.d
published in tho SUD of that city, gives a sad pic?
ture of t.:o manner in which the newly enfran?
chised raco did their voting lately in that quarter :
I thought I would tell you there have boen enaot
ed in this vicinity, ia the past two days of voting,
occurrence- that ought to bo known and published.
On St. Helena and at Gray's Hill, where the polls
were opened, almost all tho negroes went armod
with guns. At tho place first named, ono of tho
few, if not the only white man-and ho a Northern
ma:i-who weat to voto, wa.-* seized and his ticket
torn from his hands amid threats and cur-es. At
Gray'd Hill another white man-a Northerner too
advancing to vote, was surrounded by an armed
rabble of negroes and his lifo hreaicned it ho
presumed to vote. Uno ol' the prominent candi?
dates-a negro of course- openly said to tho
crowd thero that he did not adviso anv of them to
shoot any white man not voting their ticket, but
ao would r-commend them to bury him. If re?
quired, 1 bclievo the fullest proof can be furnished,
and I hear that the facts havo been sworn to be?
fore a magistrate. No noticG, however, will be
lakon of them, in all prob.ib.litv. unless tho atten?
tion of the public elsewhere 'be called to them.
Let tho press of your city know Miat it rs not lib?
erty, but license, these people ha -o and expe:t t:
have. Rescue i from birbarisni and heathenism
by contact with civilization, they mah back to
what their race has been Irom et rliest historv as
fast as they are permitted. These islands-once
tho abode of hoalth, and plentv and happiness
aro already full of filtn, and do3.itutioj and death."
