THE THEATRE-THE BLACK CROOK.-III coi?e
quence of the pressing demand to seo tho Black
Crook the managers have determined to continue
the exhibition for five nights longer. A large num?
ber of persons from the interior of tho State ave
anxious to witness this world-renownod drama, and
will gladly avail themselves of tho knowledgo of its
continuance to visit the city and form a portion of
the large audiences tuat nightly crowd theTheitro.
The play was well attended on Saturday night, and
bids fair to continue to prove, for a short time, as
great a draw as the New York original. Tho plot
of the piec;, the scenery and tho acting are now m
well known that it is useless to describe thom, ana
we merely advice all who have not yet Heon th;
Crook should visit the footlights at once and make
themsjlves acquainted with this great spectacular
drama.
THE COTTON TAX.-On this subject, so interest?
ing to our citizens, tho Washington correspondent
of tho New York Commercial writes : "There is
much sp?culation as to whether Congress will
make the Act repelling tho cotton tax apply to
this year's crop, and the ohances aro that it will
not. Indee*:1 lt is not certain that the tax will bo
entirely repealed, although there is a general de?
sire marnies tod to abolish it. The tax could havo
been abolished this week, but the lobby agents of
the Southern factors here tavo rather impeded
action th >n otherwise. They ovidently desire to
have thoir principale get the cotton, the growers
having pa d the tax, and then they hope to have
it so abolishe I that the factors will be reimbursed.
It ia to be regretted th it Congress would not have
passed a bill at once abolishing tho tax, as it ia
known that the President would have signed iL^"
DIRECT EUROPEAN TRADE.-Owing to the fall in
the pno? of our gr .-at s tap u in the Liverpool mar?
ket luring tho laut week, Eui optan freights are
somewhat dull. Ibis, we judge, trust bo tempo?
rary, at least we hooe so, for wo should (.pore no
pains lo Koon up ?V. tc trade, as in the genoral in?
terests ci tue entire community.
> The steamship Pioneer needs a limited amount
of cotton to fill up, and enable ber to go to sea. AC
TSew Orleans, by steamer direct, freights are
quoted active at ljd. for Uplands, and packet rates
at ?cb?e are jd. Surely our public spirited mer?
chants, with these facts before .hem and with a
view tv encouraging steamships to come here in
the future, will not refuse the necessary amount
of cotton to Captain Shackford at tho rate asked,
which ii so much belcw Gulf rates.
Let the Pioneer have dispatch. Good will come
ol it. tf
TVs BURNT DISTBICT.-An important order from
City Counoil appears iu to-day's issue, and i- in?
tended almost exclusively for owners of pro?
perty ixi the Burnt District. The condition of
the streets in tuoae sections of the city has long
oom jjonda ? tba attention of Couucii, and the ordi?
nances referred to were enacted for tue purpose of
. improving tai appearance of the city by widening
And oroperly aligning these streets. Ali persons
who may dosign baiidrng oa Meir property are re
quired to? notify the City Civil Engineer, Mr. Louis.
J. Burbot, vho, in h-9 capacity of Cit; Starve., or,
will layoff and maka out tho true line of tho
street. A violation of thia oxdinaaco will subject
the offending party to a lacge Sue, aad the build?
ings will be demolisbed at bi* expense. Unfortu?
nately but little building is in progress at present,
but as better days dawu upon us, ?he Burnt Dis?
trict will b? gradually improved, and il would be
well for oil partios to remember and act up to the
provisions cf this ordinance.
ICE.-With the first day of December the reign
oT Winter was fairly inaugurated. The old fellow
haa jeen rather tacaward in ins approaches, and
V fears wero entertained that h<? had been van?
quished in tho contest with Summer, and had re?
tired in disgust, but bc has shown that, though
not quito up to tine, he is good for thc balauco cl
the season. The first well auiheatieated ice was
formed in this city yesterday, and in some exposed
places it wa? tully three-oipuths of nn inch ir.
?hickness. This is his first advance, and should
bttWlkon us a warning to prepare fur the colder
days tbat will follow. Supplies' Ol wood and coal
should i>3 IaiQ in, and even prepararon made to
give him ? warm welcome.
We have baen thus far fortunately spared the'
unpleasantness of extreme cold weather, but it
ran be hardly expec ted that the Winter will con?
tinue as mild, and those who havo an abundance
of this world's goods should remember the poor,
who frequently suffer from the wunt of thc fuel
necessary to preserve warmth. The different. o
cietieB fornici for tho amelioration of this clues
are willing to do all iu their power, but donations
from the wealthy would enable them to he tal?
more efficient m allaying suffering.
ABBIST OF BURQLABS.-About the 7th ot May
the store of Mr. G. Hoffman at the corner of Lam
ooll and King-streets was broken open and robbed
uf most of the utock, consisting of jewelry, cry
goode & -. Tue store was ent red by breading the

DECEMBER.-December, like the three preceding
months, derives its name from the place which it
held in the old Roman Calendar. From the anni?
versary of the birth of Christ, which occurs in this
month, it was styled by the Germans Ohrist
monat, and by the ancient Saxons Winter-monat.
vhich term waa ohanged, after their conversion to
Christianity, to Helieh-monat or the Holy Month.
On the 23d trie sun enters the sign of Caprioornus
' or the goat. The idea allegorized by a climbing
animal is said to be the asoent of the sun, which,
after reaching its lowest declination at the winter
solstice, commences his upward path on the "1st.
a ad continues its progress from that date until it
attains its highest altitude at the Bummer solstice
on the 21st of June.
December is usually represented as a dark,
?loomy month; but in this favored climate ita at?
tributes are difforeut. Although it brings the
longest day and shortest night the oold is seldom
severe, and Christmas dinners liavo been frequent?
ly oaten with open doors and windows. It l ab
r.lwavs boen considt red the merriest month in tho
year, and the Christmas honda VB aB a season to be
d. voted to jollity and amusement.
The month was ushered in yesterday morning
! by a nipping and an eager air, and ono blast from
j old Bjreas dispelled all dreams of returning
bummer, and made overcoats and fires a oomforta
hie necessity. The sudden changa from the warmth
of summer to tho ohill winds of winter deterred
many from attending churoh, and though the suu
btruggled to disperse the clouds, the sunshine was
of short duration, and thu sky assumed the blue
>.>teel colour that foretold that the reign of King
.Vrost would soon commence.
RIVKB BAPTISM. - Tu aooordance with their pre?
vious notice .he Morris-street Baptist Church
[colored) celebrated the ordinance of baptism yes
.erday morniug on tho banks of tho Ashley at the
west end of Tradd-street. A large crowd had
collected, aad every available stand-point was oc?
cupied, the sheds of tho buildings in the vicinity
being lined with spectators. At the appointed
hour the candidates, in snow-white robes, headed
:>\- fcfi??t pastor, were marched to the epot selected
for the immersion, where they were ran .ed
. ?.jngthe brink. Dil?ng this performance the
( ongregation joined#a singing a hymn prep .rei
.md composed for the occasion. The pastor, Rev.
JaroL Legire, exhorted his flook to follow the ex
: mple of their Saviour, who W3nt down into Jor
d m and wis baptizad, and alluded to tho little
...rr1 YUH' were presaut tor tba purpose of testify
iug to the?r'^?ef .? religion.
iii.- water was ^O'hntrly cold, but th-? ?rdeul
waa religioualj observed; ari? candidates were
.separately lcd m and immersed. fw^J' ma^8
;.nd fifty females were unilod to thc church, SJ??
of thc lattor bem^ quite young. The Morris-street
Church appears to grow in grace, as numbers are
admitted at every communion Beason, and the
building is now too small to accommodate the
-.rotshippers. On ccitain occasions it had been
ioind necessary to pitch tents in order lo accom?
modate the congregation, and, as thia was not con?
sidered to be in accordance w.th their rel gious
^i'incip.es, tho pastor appealed to the spectators
to assist the cause and enable them to build a
.o.r,<cr church by depositing their spare chango m
_ags which were handed round by nuiiieruu. d'.ft
coas. Tais appeal was answered in a ^ood Bpir.t,
au J, though tho fait t. ful coh?ned their deposits tu
?jckel, the nucleus of a i uilding fund was raited,
v. n.ou ma> bo incita ;ed Ly further donations ai.d
the ?oq^uired cltuxch be boon constructed.
Ibero was no undue noise or disturbance during
tho ceremony, though conbul-rabie anxiety was
manifested to eeo how tho brothers and sisters
WJUM stand the watery trial. A number of boats
were in atteudance, and the plaoe selected aocure
ly guarded to prevent all accidente. Thcso bap?
tisms are interesting sights, and there were a num?
ber of white spectators present whose curiosity lcd
them tu witness the novel scene.
AN INGENIOUS SWINDLER. - 1 HE FlRST NATIONAL
BAN:. LOSES SIX THOUSAND DOLLARS.-A swindle
has been perpetrated in this city under circum?
stances which prove that the perpetrator is both
accomplished and experienced in his profession.
Tho circumstances are aa follows :
On Saturday, the 23d instant, an innocont look?
ing man, apparently about flfty-flvo years of ago,
arrived iu this city ami put up at tho Milla House,
under the namo of R. S. Coleman, of Massachu?
setts. On tho following Monday, having present?
ed a letter of intr duction purporting to be written
by H. B. Claflin, the great New York Dry Goods
Prince, he imposed on Mr. Edwin Bates sufficiently
to induce that gentleman to accompany him to tho
First National Bank and introiuce him to the
-ifficera of that institution. His pretext for sock?
ing the aid of Mr. Bates was that ho desired to
transact somo bank business, having reference to
tho purchaso of largo quantities of cotton for fac?
tories in the North. Having faded, according to
his own account, to make satisfactory bapains with
thc Charleston cotton merchants, he preferred to
be on his way to ? ugusta and other Georgia cities,
where he expected to buy on more accommodating
terms. With this explanation of his protendod in?
tentions, he succeeded in inducing the bank to pur?
chase from him two bank checks, amounting to?
gether to $16,500.
Ono of these checks purported to be drawn by
the cashier of the Utica City National Bauk, of
Now York, upon the First National Bank of Now
York City, and v.aa for the amount of $10,000. The
other waa drawn ostensib.y by tho cashier of the
Nationr-.l Bank of Woonsocket^ B. I., on tho Suf?
folk National Bank of Booton, and was for the
amount of $6500. O: the 16,5u0 thus placed tobie
credit, ho drew $7000,-of whioli $1000 was in the
form of a oheck on the National Bank of Augusta,
and $6000 in currency. The remaining $9500 he
kindly left on deposit.
On thc evening of the samo day he paid his
hotel bill, and mado it understood that he was
about to leave fer Ai'gusta. He was offered a
hack, but said thai he would take bis carpet bag,
his only baggage, in his hand and walk to tho
depot. Since that time nothing further has been
heard with regard to hi6 movements.
The checks negotiatod by Coleman with tbe
bank were sent on in due course for collection,
and it was not until Friday that the ban.; was ad?
vised, by telegraph, that both cheoka were forge?
ries. A telegram to H. B. Claflin elicited from
that gontleman the reply that the lotter purport?
ing to come from him was also a forgery.
Steps were immediately taken to atop payment
of the check on Aueusta, which it was ascertained
had not yet been presented. From this circum?
stance it is inferrod that Coleman did not go to
Augusta at all, but probably departed northward.
The actual loss of the bank cannot, thorefore, ex
coed $6000. -
Previous to his departure Coleman asked, and
obtained, letters of introduction to prominent
cotton factors in Augusta, and Griffin, Ga., aa well
as to one of the National Banks in Atlanta, i hese,
it is hoped, will prove of no value to the swindler,
as all persons likely to be approached have already
been fully warned.
