APPEAL FROM BISHOP DAVIS.-Right Rov. Bishop
Davis sends us the following appeal to the mem?
bers of the Episcopal Churches of this city :
CHARLESTON, S. C., December IC, 18C7.
To my Brtthren and Friends :
Grace Church, Camden, was burnt in June last,
and we now have no church to worship in. We
bad hoped to rebuild this year, but from the calam?
ities of the past season, the congregation is unable
to commence the work without somo assistance.
I knew your inability to helo us with money, but
may I appeal to you for contributions in materials,
brinks, lumber, lime, nails, slates, sashes, blinds.
Any amount of either of tneae will be thankfully
received. I have no moans of communicating- with
you save through the secular press, which hob
kindly permitted me to make this appeal. Com?
municate with me in Camden.
Any papers kindly disposed will please insert
this."
Yours in the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ,
THOMAS F. DAVIS,
Bishop of the Dioc :sc of South Carolina.
SEQUESTRATION.-There was an erudite divine,
once upon a time, in an adjoining State, famous
for "darkening counsel" by the use of words of
learned length. On ono occasion, when ho was to
preach to a congregation of negroes for a brother
minister, the latter feeling somewhat uneasy on
this score, says:
"Now, brother -, let me beg of you to be
as plain with these people as you possibly can.
Otherwise they will not understand you." This
wa3 before the days of tho burean, and ere yet
school marms had begun to illuminate this be?
nighted land with the lii<ht of their countenance.
" Never fear," remarks the learned brother, smil?
ing.
In the pulpit on Sunday afternoon, the visiting
clergyman addressed his sable audience, not un?
mindful of tho caution ho had received: "My
friends, the Apostle says, do not purloin ; but lebt
you should not understand the meaning of the
word I will make it plain for you. The Apostle
menus, my lriends, you mus! not sequester." There
were large eyes and open mouths at this lu<?id ex?
planation, but there wa3 no diminution of atealiug;
and this would appear to be the present difficulty m
regard to the transgression of the eighth command?
ment. Our oolored friends, for some reason or
other, seem to be ignorant of the moral law, and
stealing, potty laroeny more especially, is ram?
pant just now. In the exeioise of their calling
nothing comea t miss ; everything from a frying?
pan to a baie a cotton is liable to walk off at short
notice. The ideas of meum and tuum have become
very much confused, and the whole subjoct ncedr
overhauling. Will tho Convention do it ?
THE CAUSE OF IRELAND.-At an indignation
meeting of Irish-Amerioan citizens held at Charles?
ton, S. C., on the 14th instant, to tako into con?
sideration the recent judicial murders at Manches?
ter, and other atrocities perpetrated by the Bri?
tish Government on naturalized citizous of the
United States, it was
Besotted, That wo do protest against the out?
rages that have been porpetratod in all parts of
England, auci iii particular the barbarous outrago
of tho hanging of Allon, Larkin and O'Brien at
Manchester.
Besotted, That we, as a body of Irishmen and
American citizens, will, ono and all, bind ourselves
to never rest at ease until the Irish pee. pie have
satisfaction from that tyrannical government
which has acted so despotically in this case.
-Rejoiced, That we, the Irish" and friends of Ire?
land, of Charleston, S. C., deeply regret and de
Elore the sad fate of ^ur brothers in England; we
eartily sympathize with the famdies and relatives
of those noble men, in this their hour of afflic?
tion, but we ask thom to oe of good cheer, as the
Almighty God, with all His mercies, will not for?
sake them that suffer for righteousness' sako.
Besotted, That the English Government by
unjust legislation, has deprived the Irish peoule
of the right of freemon. Many of us left the land
of our filth rs on that account, but found a refuge
under the expansive fold of tho American flag,
which we have sworn to defend under any and all
circumstances, and to oppose all foreign * powers,
Sarticularly that of Great Britain, winch wo have
one and will again, when the timo offers.
Resoictd, That os adopted citizens of tho United
States, having long pgo renounced any an i all alle?
giance to Great Britain, wo now call upon all friends
of Ireland in Cougress to urge on the government
to settle at once and forever the status of adopted
citizens, not to let John Bull or any other uatiou
interfere with the rights of native or adopted cu?
zens abroad.
Resolved, That we? the Irish in this city, aro
determined to continue this struggle, and cur
motto shall be "Freedom for Ireland," and will
patiently bide our time, ana England may yet
learn that as the blood of martyrs produced Chris?
tians, BO the blood of Irish patriots will riso up in
judgment against her.
JAMES POWER, Chairman.
GEORGE NUNAN, Secretary .
THE CHRISTMAS TREE FAIR yesterday morning
was the great centre of attraction in the city, for,
in addition to the numerous objects of beauty and
articles of certa that have been exhibited there
Xor some days; m addition, also, to the charms
and graces of the fair exhibitors, and to thc splen?
did performance of the Post Band, the visitor was
rewarded with a Bight of the orphans, male aud
female, all looking neat and clean, well dressed,
and with happiness beaming from their innocent
faces, the best possible certificate of tho tender
care and nurture accorded them by their kind ben?
efactors. But the cynosure of all eyes unquestiona?
bly were the Japanese, from old Yu-ku-roo to little
"You-Bet" and "All-Right." It would bo difficult
to say who derived most interest from the confer?
ence, the ladies at the Fair, or their distinguished
oriental guests. The latter examined every object
on the tablee with the cur.osity and "delight
of a child, and before they were there fifteen
minut?e, were loaded with dolls, rabbits, fruit,
etc., etc., bestowed upon them by their gen?
erous hosts. Tho attempts at conversation
were very amusing. Little "All-Right" was all
right, and generally answered Buch questions as
were propounded to him iu tolerable English.
The older members of th<? troupe do not appear to
understand a word of Anglo-Saxo i, even though
some of the interlocutors endeavored to adapt
their questions to Japanese capacity by considera?
bly raising thc pitch of their voices. By means of
signs, however, sor e sort of communication was
established. One of the ladies, putting a se^ar to
her mouth, giving a pull' or two, and a mark of in?
terrogation in her eye, Mr. John Jap grinned, and
?aid "X?-yi," whereupon followed a transfer of
"long ninon." Thc black, glossy hair of tho Ce?
lestials was an object of considerable attention,
and its arrangement inucL admired. Somo of the
fair hostesses surmised that their, guests used Ja?
panese varnish instead of hair oil, but, upon care?
ful investigation, Wu have arrived ut tho conclu?
sion that this is not the case. The music of Mr.
Weldon's band, in excellent tune, was much ad?
mired by the occidentals present, but appeared to
have no charms to soothe the savage breasts of the
Japanese, lt is not up (or down) to their idea of
the tuneful art.
The Christmas Tree Fair was again well attend?
ed last night, notwithstanding the inclemency of
the weather, and will be open during the rest of
fhe week,
The Charleston Delly Xews for 1808-Im
portant Announcement.
Encouraged by tho recent largo increaso in
ho circulation of TUE CHARLESTON DAILY
NEWS, the proprietors aro happy to nnnounoe
that, with thc opening of the new year, the
price of subscription will be reduced to a figuro
which will at once place the paper within
the reach of every family in thc city aud
throughout the State. On and after the first
of January, lb'68, TH* D.VILT NEWS will be pub?
lished at Six DOLLARS A YEAH, payable, in all
j cases, in advance. It vcill then be, without
exception, the cheapest first-class journa1 in
thc Southern States. There is no good reason
why our community should not bc furnished
u ith a live daily newspaper at a rate approxi?
mating that of the sprightly penny press of thc
Northern cities ; and the very generous support
^vhich hag been accorded to us on all sides has
hastened a step, long contemplated on our part,
towards meeting the popular want. It is hard?
ly necessary to say that there will be no dimi?
nution in the amount or interest of the reading
matter in any department of the paper; on the
contrary, it viii be our constant effort and our
??ride to make it, day by day, more full, reliable
and entertaining-the spirited compend of the
world's news, the mirror of local life, and the
mouthpiece of au enlightened and liberal pub?
lic opinion.
At the solicitation of many of our friends in the
country, we shall also, during the first week in
January, commence the is^ue of THE CHARLES?
TON TRI-WEEKLY NEWS. Thc subscription
price will be THREE DOLLARS A YEAR, or Two
DOLLARS FOR SIX MONTHS, payable always in
advance.
This reduction in our rates will, we know,
be all the more welcome to the public, inas?
much as it comes at a time of unprecedented
financial distress, when there are few, indeed,
among our people who do not sorely ueed every
dollar that can be saved. We do not permit
ourselves to doubt that our enterprise will be
rewarded with a steady increase of that popu?
lar appreciation and support of which we have
hitherto received so liberal a share. THE
DAILY NEWS airead}' enjoys a circulation
largely exceeding that of any other journal
now published in this or the adjoining States :
and its readers may rest assured that, in the
future, no effort will bo sparod to increase the
attractiveness of its columns, and to extend
still further thc field of its influence and use?
fulness.
THE RAILROAD Son.-Wo learn from the Colum?
bia Phoenix tbat in the bill flied by the South Car?
olina Railroad Company, to ""loin the construc?
tion of the Columbia and August- "Railroad, the
Court of Appeals bas decided all points against
:he South Carolina Railroad Company; BO tho work
?f construction goes on without let or hindrance.
AN IMPORTANT FACT.-The activity that is now
J'splaycd in tho diff?rent departments of trade is
i sire sign of tho advance of Kris Kingle. Each
establishment is striving to ouldo its neighbors by
inering toits customers rare ind?ceme..ts to in?
most .heir Christmas money. Tho number of thc
stores, and the variety of their stocks renders it
necessary for them to present their claims for
oatronago to the public, and nono but those that
ldvertise can be certain that they have secured
Ibis desired end. A glance at thc columns of
THE NEWS will chow our readers a complote busi?
ness directory, in which not only the name and
ousiness of the party aro recorded, but an inven
:ory of their stock is furnished. There are at
cresent a large number of ?trangers in thc city
vhose sole object is tho purchase of their Christ?
mas supplies. Tho few dava between tnis and thc
STcw Year are the harvest time f jr merchants, and
:hoy should not bido their Iii ht under a bushel.
ARIEL REFUTED.-The ethnological doctrines
recently advanced by "Ariel" have attracted con?
siderable attention, and various efforts have been
nado to rofuto them ; but a clincher was delivered
yesterday by a darkey that exhausted tho argu
nent. In accordance with an invitation tendered
hem, the Japanese visited the Christmas Tre^
.osterday morning, and attracted universal atten
ion by their strange dress and peculiar manners.
)n leaving thc ball they were closely scinned by a
lumber of negroes, who viowed the Celestials witu
. critic's oyo, and ono of tho party thus unburUen
id himself : "If Ariol call do nigger a beast I woh?
ler what ho call dose. They heap more liko a
.cant than a nigger,*' and ho stalkca off fully satis
tcd that ho was a man and a brother. Thc Japs
tavo excited some curiosity among the negroes,
cd whenever they have appeared in the streets
lave been followed by large crowds who hail them
s tho Injuns, and pass amusing comments on 1
heir general appearance.

CHRISTMAS SIGNS-THE V AGON YARDS.-Coining
vents are said to cast thru shadows before them,
nd the signs o? the .imes show plainly that
Christmas is not far d' .tant. The various stores
?ave displayed their gala colors, and placod their
lost tempting artic'.es on exhibition, in anticipa
ion ol the trade .vhich always comes into tho
itv at this time. Tho hotels show an increased
umber of arrivr^, and tho streets aro crowded '
rith 8trango faees; but the places where the in
ux is most nocicodaro tho wagon-yard3 in tho
pi. cr wards cf ibe city. These caravansaries aro
rowded with wagons from all portions of tho
tate, that have brought to tho city not only tho
amnion staple, but produco of various kinds,
?ins, furs, &o. A large tradu is conducted by
?e?e wagoners, whence theil- supplies are obtain
] in exchange for cotton. Each wagon yard has,
i addition to its yard and stable, a 6tore where
rc ry thing that is needed by the country visitor i
in be obtained, and the owners of these yards
induct a lucrative business by bartering with :
>eir customers. Many of these parties have, for
sars, be?n in tho habit ol visiting tho city,
i their wagons and could not bo induced to leave
ie beaten road ior the railway. 'They have inva
iably sold their cotton to certain store-keepers,
nd bavo no desire to change. This business,
bough it may appear small, is one of consid?ra?
le importance io tho city, and bas caused thc
ipid growth of the Nock. Stores have sprung up
long the whole route, and tliou^'i not ol thc first
lass, they aro tuitec' to tho trade. Theic is a
ri6k competition among the shop-keepers for the
ountry custom, especially at the present time,
ho largor estabhshmenta frequently do a busi- '
ess that would bo a godsend to some of the more
rc tending down-town stores, and an amount of
J:ton changea hands that makes thc section a ,
aluablc source ot supply to our cotton market.
Many of thc prominent factors of this city coui
?onccd their business by keeping wagon yards. .
?lore the days ot the railroad the trado was con- \
ucted on a grand scale; but alter that innovation, !
ie business clustered around the wharves. Du
ing thc ?ar of 1812 many storc-k: epera purchased ?
otton at a very low rate, and the sudden lise in 1
ie price after peace was declared was the founda
on of their subsequent conuaeroial prosperity,
GREAT SUCCE&? OF THE WIDOWS' HOSIE BAZAAR.
-Tho pelting rain laet night did not prevent the
parlors of tuc Widows* Home, on Broad-atreot,
from being airain throngod with a pleasant com?
pany. All the multitudinous attractions of the
opening nisrht (little blondo widow included) woro
prosent, besides many new features of decidod in?
terest. Among these latter perhaps tho most con?
spicuous was an elaborato hat rack formed of
buck's antlers, supported upon a handsome
mahogany frame. In raffling this elegant pice?
of furniture, tho ladies hivo adopted tho liberal
8chemo of "ail prizes, no blanks." The rack is
laden with presents for tho happy chance-holders,
each pre-cut in itself being more than a quid pro
quo for the chance-money. How they can afford
this generous modo of doing business passes our
comprehension.
The ladies of the Homo request us to make their
acknowledgments to tho Southern Rolief Associa?
tion of Baltimore, an 1 particularly to Miss How?
ard, the Secretary, and Mrs. Carr, the Treasuror,
for tho generous and timely aid thoy have hasten?
ed to offer to their impoverished sisters of Charles?
ton in the good work they have undertaken. The
zeal and sympathy which tho fair Marylanders
Eave evinced, is worthy ol' the fame of their chival?
rous and magnanimous State.
The Bazaar will be opon this afternoon at two
o'clock, and continuo throughout thc evening.
Dinner SB well as supper will be furnished by the
fairest of handmaids.
