Mr. Quinn has recent!; taken charge of the Up-town Bookstore, aud h?s made that depot of literature all that it wag in its palmiest days. BSUOIOUS NOTICE.-Rev. Lovick Tierce. D.D.. of Georgia, will preach to-morrow, at half-past iO A.M.. and a quarter past 7 P.M., et Trinity Chun Hasc'.-strc t, ..mt in the afternoon, at hall-pa-. 3 o'clock, nt Bethel, corner Calhoun and Pitt Btroets. A PosTorncE has been establishc:! at Korti Santee, Georgetown District, aud a rural pas.- , between :t and Charleston once a wcok, each way closing at the Charleston Postoffice on Tuesdays, at half-rust 9 o'clock, a::d leaving North Santee for Charleston on Fridays. DBOWNIXG.-Tho body of a man was ft und floating in Commercial dock yesterday, and a jury bein:- impanelled an inquest was hold by Magis? trate Kanapaux, at which it waa discovered th vt the deceased wa? named J. Leahy, and i ad resided at thc corner of Bogar? aLd Coming streets. Il waa scc-u on the afternoon of the samo day, aud i vas supposed that he had strayed upon tli wharves and fell overboard. Tho jurv returns .?.how a verdict in accordance w ith these facts. THE BAZAAR.-Tho Carolina House ha-, becom a popular resort for all who wish to while the time away, and the Bazaar is nightly thronged by those who wish to enjoy themselves aud to aid tho hoi) causo of charity. Tho attraction? aro numerou> and few can resist thc demands made on (heh fractional currency. Saturday is a half holiday to most persons, and tho occasion could not be bettei improved thau by paying a visit to tho Bazaar and purchasing some Christmas gifts from tao numer? ous tables. THE JAPS.-The Hall was ?.gain crowded las! night by an appreciative audience., whose ideas o? anatomy were shocked by tho ability displayed bj the youthful Japs. Thu ditTaront feats were ad? mirably pc-iOrmed and elicited general applause. Tho troupe will conclude their stay to-night, and all who have not seen tho Celestials should avail themselves of the opportunity. There have been fhn exhibitions in this city that 7 assess more interest than tho Japanese Troupe, and the remembrance of their varied exploits will serve to drive awa;. dull caro when other amusements are forgotten. CLOSING OF TUE CHRISTMAS TREE FAIR.-This Fair, wh.ch has been such a great financial and social success, closed last night, aud the ladies who havo been so zealo ' and untiring in their labora may now rrooso npo tho laurcis they have won. One of tho great events of the Fair was the voting for a beautiful Cope which had been pre? sented by a friend. The chances went off with great rapidity, and when the lime carno for closine; the pells, it was found that one thousand two hun? dred and sixty-four votes had been casi, of which the Rev. Mr. Quigley received fivo hundred and seventy-seven. To the reverend gentleman tho Cope was accordingly awarded. ACCIDENT ox THE SOUTH CABOLIXA RALUte.uv STNGULAR ESCAPE.-On Thursday evening a Mr. Campbell, a passenger on thc up Columbia night train, while uear Branchville, endeavored tc step from one car to the next, but missed his footing, and fell botweou the cars. The passenger and brake cars passed over him, Lut ho was fortunate? ly not touched by tho wheels, and received only a few bruises from the brakes striking him in pass? ing. Dr. Ott, at Branchville, examined his wounds, which proved to be slight, aud ho was brought to the city by tho Augusta Night Empress Train, and was taken to bis brother's house in West-street. FA??OBAAIA Ol THE ClTY OF COI.VIUUA.-TllC Christmas Tree has fallen. Tao woodman has not spared a bough, and thc glories of Commins' Flail aro being fast swept away. The Bazaar is, how? ever, still tho attraction, and is attended nightly by numbers who are anxious to deposit their mite for the causo of charity. The Panorama of tho City of Columbia is a now entertainment; but as it represents scones that aro familiar to most persons, it will doubtless be weil attende 1. Tho pe? riod embracei in these views extends from 1SG0 to 1865, and those who knew tho capital in its palmy days can roneT their ncquniutatxe by means of the life-like representations presented on thc can? vas. This Panorama will bo on c .hibition during next week, aud bas every merit that should make it attractive._ THE NORTHWESTERN SECTION.-This section cf the city has been slowly bat steadily improving ever sinco the war. The burning of the New Bridge and tho removal of tiie railroad track have changed it3 appaarance and detracted somewhat from tho former aspect of Spring-street, which is the main arten- of this portion of thc city, bu* the houses havo boon repainted .".rid improved, and tho general appcaraucc ol' tho street considerably changed for the better. New houses Lave bion erected, and thoso that bad stood tho shock of battle and tho inroads of Fat 1er Time have been improved until their former dilapidated appear? ance is entirely forgotten. A number of vacant lota in this vicibity, suitable cither for building or farming purposes, hr.ve been offered for sale re? cently and have brought merely nominal prices; but this is owing to the tightness of the times and tb6 scarcitv of monev. THE COLOBED FD?ECOMPANIES.- Yesterday being tho appointed anniversary of the Colored 1 ire De? partment, it was celebrated in a becoming manner. Engines Nos. five, seven, eight and niue, passed through the principal streets and attracted con? siderable attention by the deccratious ou the en? gines, and tho fancy uniforms ot" tho bremen. They were reviewed by thc Mayor r.ud Aldermen at the City Hall, alter v.hich a contest took place, in which number five was victcrious, sending thc farthest stream. Tho colored engine companies aro an important adjunct to the Firo Department, and have been fouud to bo extremely serviceable at fires. The members take a deep interest in their organizations, and have the same esprit de corps that is felt by the whito companies. Their uniforms and equipments arc all of thc best make, and thc general appearance ot' tho companies was extremeb flattering co the pride of the membeiB. THE SP.OBTEST DAY IN THE YEAR.-The festival of St. Thomas, which falls upon to-day, was insti? tuted in the twelfth century, und, as an old author all?ges, was assigned au early place in the eccle aiastical calendar, from this apostle having been vouchsafed tho most indisputable evidence of tho resurrection. St. Thomas is generally considered as tho patron saint of architects and builders, and is represented in old pictures as holriin< 1 build? er's square. It is said that alter the dispersion of the apostle, St. Thomas preached the gospel ia Asia, and suffered martyrdom among the indians. St. Thomas" Day falls on the Winter solstice, tho shortest day in the year, and in tho olden time it was the practico of the poorer classes to solic.t alms from their more wealthy neighbors, and from this circumstance it took the name of Dooling Day. No particular importance Ls now attached to this festival, and it is only remarked as having thc longest night and shortest day hi the whole v ear. HOTEL ARRIVALS.-Charit sion llolct.-A.

DEAS Sin-I have received your k;ud favor instant and th.: acoompanyiug pamphlet in rc ?.Arier by "Optician," fur which picado aeco; best thanks. By this mail I son i you Dr. Bob ?oung'a reply, with thc kino' respects of ilic mau who has had i: printed by J. \Y. "Mo Fe I fear from what he tay.-3, liiat il was an aaJ nato investment for him. li you thinkaoy copie bo sold in Charleston, to .-;ivo him from loss, y address liim on the subject. I have read "Speculum," and my only asto men* from reading that, and Dr. J. L. Girat .md Dr. Young is, that such an amount of : ranee-rank, Kiarie ignorance-coull bo f under cover o?' D.D.'s. I notice J our note on 13, "Upon thy belly shalt thou RO, etc..'" and it aays. Please look over tho words of thc ci as stated iu our Libio, and as being prciiou by Go l on the serpent (?) and you wdl not f? observo thc following ?acts: (1) that the e .vas one of degradation only-"Thou art cu hove ail cattle, and above every beast ci deld;" and (2) as in our Bible goes on to .Upon thy belly shalt thou ?o and cat dust al Jays of thy lile." (3) Thai this serpent had t< rolivc-oat dust; (4) thaine was capable of mity; (5) that ho should prop?gate his specie v.nh; (6) and that ho should dio-"eat dus i ho days of thy life."" Docs this reier to tho di ile is to be punished in everlasting Ore-ho d .at dust all thc days of his life, neither does -erpent-ho don't prop?galo hil species by i ria*;e or otherwise ou earth. God said, "I will 'inniiy between thy seed and lier acoil," etc., How then are wo to understand it? The WX .'upon thy belly shalt thou go,"' is an interpola in the manuscript from which our Biblo was tr: iated. How do I know it ? I know it from following facts: (1) Tho Hebrew word Aac translated "?ei-ponr," dou't meant serpent : a over did. (2) Thc root moans "to seo," gaze," "to look attentively," '::o observo close Now it ia a rule laid down by philologists and 1 icographers, that any meaning claimed for a rivativo word, thc principle of that uioaiutig m oe found in tho root-c. g.-you have two ap trees, one produces sour and the other sweet ole*. Now, the principle that makes thc one s< md thc other swoot, must be contained in tho rc .Vow, "s;rpent" is not contained in tho root, i is itiu reality in thc derivative Xacash. "flow ih j.imo it to bc translated ' serpent ?" Simply fV :ho mistake of the copy.st a'oovo retcrrcd lo, Interpolating "upon thy belly shalt thou go," a i9 nothing went on tho belly but a serpent, c ranslators without further examination of otl MS. forced "sorpant" as tho translation, just hey have forced into modern Hebrew Lex'co: he words "brass'* and "brazou" as parts of t neaningof Xacush, to oomply with Numbers a 3, ct. sig. But NaoaA moans simply "to vi ittentivcly," "io gaze at, intently," "to acquire i brmat'on by intent observation,'' "to sequi mowli dge by experience." Had our translators lui )d at other manuscripts equally old, Cha'dean, Sj ic. Ethiopie, Arabic ttai., they would not have co; ail ted so groat a blunder as they have. Tho eui when piunounecd by (.?od on "Xacash" ?as and 'Thou an ours.dabovo all cattle, and above eve jeast of lite field, and above ev.-ry creeping thing )f t lings thai go upon their belly and eat from he dust alt tho uays of tu cir life." Ibis vers: f it is plain and simple and true, and is rcquir jyourB.blo itself, when tho whola curso is ar yzed. I shall. God willing, notice all these in r lexi publication. Yours truly, ARIEL. NASHVILLE, December ll, 1807. To-. DE.VU Sin : I sincerely thank you for your fan if lot?t ins ., and tho enclosed elegant speech < Jr. Wink?cr AT "Ariel." lt is couched itt suprior language to any otb ittaek that I have seen, and lias more of tho tee if a gentleman who honestly believes "Alic vrong, and gives his az-r-x rea sons for ao thin! :ig. This look;, like honest, not partisan, Inqn .y, and should be so regarded and commended. "Ariel*' has stated his proposition!: ciear au listiuct; he has furnished clearly and distinct iis proofs irom tho Biblo and Bible history, ai iustamed these proofs by est.- ting outside ?jn-t? ai; :oucurrent outside aucic.l history. Now if' Arie s wrong, he eau bc answered; if bo ia right li :annot bc answered. Tho denunciations of D Y., or any other of tho assailants o'* "Ariel," ai io arguments to provo anything, and show oui heir own weakness and want of Libio andotlu ruth to sustain them, oi they would net resort t ;hem. Thc question in wbtch we are all interested ii vhat rank or po; ition has God, not man, assigne or tho negro? and how is this question to b 'ccided? By the OPINIONS of men, whether leam ;dornot? ?y tho heretofore received opinions c ;ho world, raid because they have been accepted a ruo by past ages ? Or, on tho contrary, is nc bis question to be settled alone by God and iii doly Wold ? We say by Go J aud the Bible. Will the opponents of "Aricl'j" views accept th Scriptures of thc Gld and New Tesi.tnior.ts as com Detent to decido this question? If they will b rilling, as he i9, to bc bound by what they say, i tan easily be satisfactorily settled. And its ad ustmcnt will not only settle, aa a fact growing ou >f its adjustment, that the negro is a boast, bu V/ EXPEESS declaration of the Divine writer hat HE HAS KO SOUL. Tbrso points eau bi lemonstratcd by the positivo authority oi j-od's Word, and by tho logic of facts whicl hat word icaohcB. Now, if tho views of "Arie.' iro what Goa teaches, how dare any mat: o gainsay, and bcg.n to tell us ol' tho awful cou ?equeneca to the negro-to tho white race, to so aety, as onsujig, if "Ariel" is truo? These gentle* nen, too, forget, that, by iudulging in ouch de? nunciatory calamities, that THE! are a.-sumintr; hal THL? could have arranged thid world much letter than God himself. This QCASI infidelity, rhich is now filling the pulpits of tho land, be ioving OXLT so accu of God's Word, us in their udgtuonts God should have douo, said, or corn? il.'lided, aod where anything is eaid (bat does tot L'iraiouize with THEIK judgment or opinion, nust be laid asiae. This is not only truo of our mlpite, but no less astonishing. Do no; such nen know that God wi ll stamp them out of cxis eneo for such impiety ? Has not God said, that if every word which HE HAS SPOKEN, not ono jol ir tittle shall fail, that ALL will bc accomplished ? .'ho pulpits and the religious writings of the day re now owrrunnin; with this cytwsi infidelity. Le t mo ask \ou a question ou this point-You inderstand Dr. Wink!? as asserting that tho ?tbiopian roforrcd to in his text, Act:., vii:., aa be? ug a negro? Yes. Do you Bupposo that tno "toter did that as an intelligent reader of the libio or from design or ignorance? Look at, nd road attentively verses 27 and 2?. Ho had :one to Jerusalem TO wonsuir. Now. was any ?non BUT A JEW ? ver allowed to worship in the 'eniplo? Seo Acts ssh, 23 to yo.

Ho was unquestionably a Jew. lucen Candase was likewise whit J, and ail her objects ''.hito al io. Had Dr. W. but looked into latin history he would have found thal, at (his erv time. Nero was on thc throne, that Pct ro? uis- bad bet :i appointed bv him to succeed Callus s Governor of E^ypt and Ethiopia-that at this imo tho Bi ?man army under Petronias was in bo actual occupation of "Papata, thc capital hen oi' Ethiopia, where this Queen Candace ?cid her court- ilia? they were white, de ceudants of Ham-and had ho examined his ory fur th or, ho would havo found that the Stbiopi .. of tue Bible (not the Ethiopi i of inca's ?ucy), waa settled by the descendants of II un rom Egypt-that Etl iopia extended from Cyicne ?nth of L-gypt, and extended up the Nile to Eash onm, at tho junction of the White ?md Blue Nile, . distance of some 080 miles. That its first capi .1! was "M-'Toe-that its mina al this day are oi tho .lOit mar-.silioeat kind-that an examination ct keir catacombs, ai welt a" ?\[ their architect me, 1. iw thai Ihey are tho same aa tlioso * E?ypt-theil .coils and temples tho same heir ourlai of thou- dead Um same-the nscriptiona on their Raroaophn.^i ibo same i.'eroglyphic?-ih..!: IA opening ol' them, tho ame cast ot features, with long Btraighthair on hem, is lound ou ihoii dead.

Exodss o; iii" Hvurows tom Egypt, uncoi' Uoses and Aaron. Diu lo test the Doctor's Bfblo knowledge and contemporaneous history : Wc now orri" bun, or any one else, to point hia ?ngor to A SINGLE INSTANCE, where any Apostle EVE:: PREACHED TO A N::GRO-ever baptized one-or over establish M a NEOKO CHURCH ON TUTS EARTH. Wo .-ay v. ? DI ; ? liim, <?;. any othor man, to do ibis. Tho Apostle Paul declares that "tho Gospel." in bia day, "had boon preached throughout the whole world," and he sp? ko truth. And wc now say again that wo defy the Doctor, or any other man, to show ono single NEGRO CHURCH ostablishod bj them, or n Bingle negro baptized by them, any lore than ho ca i show a church ol horses, asses, goats or sh? op, established <>r baptized Ly them; churches such a* can be shown oi tho whites. Ic won't do t'. dodge this quos ti jn. God will make thom ans xor, or he will CT i?b them into tho * * * * * Li them try it. lt won't do to say tho Christian Church AMONG n-e i -r-o-c-s, is involved in that saino obscurity that overhang., the demoniacal idea that tho negro is tho offspring of Ham, Shem, or Japho*. Tho Apostles either did ordid not preach to negroes, h' they preached to then!, whore were their churches '! Thou thal second sprout of infidelity anion:,' tho learned (?) clergy, which they lay to thc Apostle Paul, savin: in Athens (seo Acts xvii., 26), "That of one blood God bath made ail the nations of men for to dwell on all tito facoof thooarth." This, they say. necessarily includos the whole negro race. Well, wo now utter another defianco to lho.se learned gentlemen. We defy them to p at their linger 0:1 ONE SEC?LE passage in tho Bible, from (ho :lrst .'otter to thc ! is. ono in il. where the ne? gro is ca!P. d a NATION any more than horses, asses, cattle, sheep or soaL, aro called a NATION or NA? TIONS. Lot thom try it. Chris! told his disciples io preach thc Gospel io every nation, and they say t.'iey did; but how is it thev never baptized a ne? gro, or established a negro church ? Those learn? ed (?) men would maire tho Saviour's orders, and the veracity of his Apostles, cf little account ala?! for our poor fallen natures. Wc arc great, VERY great hi our vain imaginations. Wo want lo show God that wo jan mah; ROO J CERXSTTANS or RE ?ST 3, although we eau hardly make J. '.ruc and honest one of ourselves. Again, it cnn br; shown from tho Bible that it is ns impossible (reverently speakii fr) tor God to make a BLACK MAN. and endow bim with a soc a3 tor him to croate FIRE WITHOUT niiAx. I want ail to be said against "Ariel" that can be, justly or unjustly said, before wc reply. Wo arc now preparing our Dot cs f jr another work, in which all these matters will be properly attended to. Most ol" what has boon said against "Ariel"' is de? nunciatory, not worthy of a man. lou may print this hastily written sketch if yon think propel' aud your papers atc willing '-Arie'; ' should bo heard.
