WILL IT PAY TO ADVERTISE V-If there is auy one thing in ordin?r- business life which has been more satisfacto ily demonstrated than any other one, it is that judicious advertising will pay, and yet, there is no point upon which the majority of our business men are so skeptical. Most of those who advertise, if they fail to have immediate responses, become discontented, and consider it is a mere throwing away of money. If every customer who is influenced by advertisements, were to an? nounce tho fact, at the time purchases are made, these skeptical ones would have their doubts re? moved.

THE THEATRE.- Vive (a Ballet.-The Black Crook ' has now become thoroughly familiarized to the city Audiences, and though the attraction still con? tinues, it has taken another phase, and the question that now agitates the community is which of the leading female danseuses i j the most perfect in her i'ole. The retrenchment question and thc deprecia? tion of the city currency are all forgotten in this all absorbing topic, and the theatre-goers are on the o^ti ewe to decide who has won the laurels. It is only by personal observation that a correct opin? ion can be formed, and we advise all interested parties who wish to take a cairn and dispassionate view of the subject, to visit the Black Crook and draw their own conclusions, without depending on the reports of other*. The Black Crook has so many attractions in the ballet, the scenery, the singing and the acting, that the hours spent at thc theatre are those of unmixed enjoyment, and will furnish the beholder with many pleasant memories in the time to come. PASSENOERS TO ASRIVE.-The following ure the names of passengers, as reported in the New York papers, which left that city on Saturday last io the steamship Champion, for this port, and which may be expected to arrive here to-day : In steamer Champion, .for Charleston, s.

GARROTERS.-These disciples of Thug have here? tofore confined their attentions to Northern cities; but a nt%r adepts aro now in this city, and have showed their hands in a very disagrecble manner to their unfortunate subjects. A few nights since a United States soldier attempted this pleasant garroting game on a citizen, and had succoeded in rifling him of his watch and money, when all further progress was arrested by a pistol which was placed at his head by a party who had wit? nessed the transaction, and who demanded a re? turn of the stolen articles. This peremptory pro? ceeding induced tho gay garroter to comply in? stanter, and his victim found his property restor? ed when he had given up all as lo3t. Carrying concealed weapons is said to be ono ol' the deadly sins under the new code, but pistols are occasion? ally found to be of vital importance, and there are some persona who are bold enough to risk all con sequences, and go prepared for all emergencies, by carrying a small shooting iron about tneir clothee. THE DEARTH of ITEMS.-From the rising of the sun to the going down of the same ye Loctl has been wandering over the city, seeking what rums he might devour, but all has been Yanity and vex? ation of spirit. Qm et has reigned supreme, the gentle wiles of Bachus have failed to lead men astray, and the morals of the city are dehghtfully salubrious. The Black Crook has absorbed all of the spare change, and while that continues to be the rage nothing unusual will be likely to occur. The whole city ia in a beatific state of serenity, from which nothing 'can arouse it, and the Local who perambulates the town for items finds it an arduous underiairing, bringing only weariness to the flesh, sad being ? severe tax oa his sfaof leather. Localizing is at present a difficult bust ness, requiring a fertile imagination, that can ruake a mountain out of a mole hill, and can mag? nify a street brawl into a fearful riot. Tho absence of all raw material ia deplorable, but tho uncom plaiuing Local sita like Patience on a monument smiling at Grief, and waite for better daye, when aomethiug will turn up to bia advantage. FACILE DECENSCS AVERNI.- -Science has deinon atrated tho fact that it ia far easier to descend than to risc, but an example waB furnished yester? day that puta all doubts at an end. Conductor Roumilat's car waa on its down-town trip, when a colored passenger on the front platform, wishing to show his agility, leaped, hut forgot the old adage "to look before you leap," and, instead of landing on lerra firma, wont into a drain opening that was conveniently near. Fortunately, he cleared the windlass, and bia deacent wa8 only im? peded by the bucket, which had just been filled with mud, preparatory to being raisod. The sud? den descent caused the windlass to revolve quickly, and the lido of the car was scraped by the handle. This performance waa extremely unpleasing to Hr. Roumilat, and he abused the workmen for their carelessness, but was somewhat surprised when they stated that it was the fault of his car, SB a passenger had made the leap which caused the revolution. The car was stopped, and from ort ot the depths a doleful voice waa heard crying for suer or. The appeal was anawered by several strong pulls at the windlass, and the bemired in? dividual was speedily elevated tc- the light of day, but his former gay apparel was sadly dimmed by the sewerage, and the contrast was so great that he soon disappeared from the view, amid the laughter of the spectators. LE TU BE vov. THE BENEFIT OK THE WIDOWS' HOME.-The ladies who have charge of the Widows' Home, in Broad-street, have fortunately secured the valued assistance of Miss Bates, and that lady will read a lecture at tho Home, this evening, on "Florence, "the proceeds to be devoted to the institution. Misa Batea' attainments are well known, and from her familiarity with the sub? ject alic ia enabled to preaent its most attractive features to her hearers. The Widows' Home is ono of the moat deserving charities in our eily, as it appeals to the sympathies of all who battled for tho lost cause. The widows, daughters and wives of deceaaed Confederate soldiers have nat only been offered a home where they are comfortably situated, bul arrangements havo been made to render them further assistance, by which their exertiona may bring them some support. To effect these desired ends the Directors have taxed all available re? sources and have appealed to a generous public to sustain them by their donations. Tho lecture thia evening will be both entertaining and instruc? tive, and those who attend will find that their mite given in the sacred cause of charity haa brought its reward in the pleasure afforded by the perform? ance of a good deed.

THE ALLEGED CASE or PICKPOCKETING.-Aa a matter of justice we publish with pleasure the fol? lowing communication, merely remarking that our reporters are not responsible for erroneous infor? mation that may be furnished them : To Ike Editors of the Dai:y Xews : As I am a constant reader of your valuable pa? per, an article headed "pickpockets" arrested my attention. It stated that one of the light-fingered gentry was collared on last Thursday night in Hi? bernian Hall, with a watch in hi? possession, but, as ho said that the button of his coat had caught tho chain, ho was suffered to go. Now, as the above-mentioned circumstance may put me in a fe lae light with those whom were present at the oc? casion, you will oblige me by givme thia a placo in your piper. On last Thursday night I went to the Theatre, but the doors were not opened when I arrived. When the doora were at laut opened, everybody rushed to tho ticket box or office, I among tho rest. When I procured my ticket, I managed to get out of the crowd, my coat being pushed back. When I was half way up tho stairs somebody called to me that I would lose my watch. I turned around, when the same gentleman took a watch from a button of my coat; the owner coming up immediately and claiming it, took the watch. I did not know anything of it until the gentleman took it from the 'button. Such is tho true state? ment of the case. I thiuk it very hard, and at the same time very wrong for your reponer to give the name of "thief" to un honest man, when ne does not know the true statement. L?ER L?BEN, No. 749 Kiug-street Rosd. CHARLESTON, Dec. 2. MOST HORRID AFFAIR.-On Monday night last the dwelling hou-e ol' Mr. C. D. Wallace, ono of our oldest and moBt respected citizens, at Gopher Hill, at eleven o'clock, was found to be completely en? veloped in flames. When the neighbors attracted, arrived, the house, which was a largo one, was so completely enveloped that nothing could bo done to stay the flames. Mr. Wallace resided alone, and was knowu to bo at home, as he was seen by some of his neighbors, and heard calling his hogs after dark by ochers, but whether in the house or not could not be determined until next day, whan his remains were fouud almost entirely" consumed. From even* circumstance, suspicion of foul play was aroused, ihe whole matter ls in the hands of an inquest, and should an end be reached in time, we shall add tho finding to this paragraph. Until then we forbear particulars. If there was one in? offensive and unoffending citizen in the District, and a roan without an enemy, Mr. Wallace was that roan. The following is tho finding of the Jury of Inquest: "That the deceased, C. D. Wallace, was feloniously killed by James Flynn and John B. Langley, by means unknown to the Jun-, or by being burnt i in hie dwelling house." [Ctieraio Advertiser. BI 'SIXESS XO TICES. H. ii.
