The Burning of the Raleigh.
THIRTEEN MORL SATKD-TWENTT-FOUB STILL
?mom.
Boat No. 3, from tho Raleigh, it now appears,
reached Kiawah Inlet in safety on Christmas morn?
ing, having thirteen persona aboard. Thc boa*,
was abandoned, and the crew and passengers were
piloted by some colored people across tho country
to this city. These are tho names of tho thirteen
additional who are now known to be saved:
Dr. J. Cass, passenger.
Lawrence Sweeney, passenger.
James Brady, passenger.
John Sloan, passenger.
Angelo Garragan, passenger.
Robert Phoenix, orew.
Charles P. Marshman, Jr., acting quartermaster.
Nathaniel Boyi, crew.
Wm. Welsh, crtw.
Eugene H. Elb' s, crew.
James Penfield, crew.
Michael Lark n, crew.
Patrick Barragan, crew.
Thirty-one persons in all from the Raleigh have
uow arrived here, and of those still issing it is
nearly certain that ten were drowned. There is
still some hope that Captain Marshman and those
on tho ship wich him when the first boats left have
been picked up by a passing vessel.
The steamtug Christiana left port on Christmas
day on a cruise in search of the wrecked part>.
but discoveied nothing. Sho, however, spoke the
steamships Marmion and North Point and in?
formed them of the disaster. The Pilot Boy also
went out on the same errand, but discovered
nothing._
ARREST OF A FOWL TRDIF.-A uegro named
Miller attempted to make his Christmas out of a
confiding countryman by offering to sell hi.-,
turkeys. The countryman agreed, but found that
he was sold, as neither negro or turkeys weresoen
again. He laid the case before the detectives,
who soon had the crafty Miller in bonds. He
stated that he had sold the turkeys tor two dol?
lars, but the money was gone. He was detained
and will be tried for theft.
A RCNAWAI.-Yesterday morning, while the
Turners were coming up King-street, preceded by
a band of music, a horse that was in a buggy uear
the sidewalk became alarmed at the noise and
dashed off. Unlike most, he boldly faced the
music, and caused the band to scatter and the
Turners to turn aside. Fortunately tho negro
groom kept a firm grip on the rein, and succeeded
in controlling the excited animal, who did no
damage beyond breaking a shaft.
INQUEST.--An inquest was held yesterday on tho
body of Mr. Campbell, who died from injuries re?
ceived by falling from a car on the South Caro?
lina Railroad. He fell between the platforms, and
the rear car passed over him, inflicting what wore
supposed to be slight bruises. After his removal
to Charleston it appeared that he had received
some internal injuries, which resulted in his death.
The jury returned a verdict in accordance with
these facts.

THE PEOPLE'S LINE AND THE CREW OF THE
RALEIGH.- Messrs. J. & T. Getty desire us to state
that there ia no truth whatever in a rumor circu?
lated yesterday to the effect that some of the crew
of the Raleigh had been refused a bee passage to
New York by their fine. They inform us that aa
soon as the crew arrived they directed Captain
Shackford, of the Moneka, to take the whole of
them to New York free of charge. It was after?
wards arranged that the three steamers in port
should divide the crew amoDg them, and whon
the Moneka sailed yesterday sho carried out her
proportion as well as lour of tho steerage passen?
gers.
THE WIDOWS' HOME BazAAB^After an interval
of a few cays the Bazaar was reopened last night,
and crowds has'en'.-d to resow their acquaintance
with its difieren, attractive features. Thc ladies
have not been itLe during the recess, as tho ap?
pearance o? the taDles proved. The grotto of eggs,
the fortune-teller, the archers tree and tho other
popular attractions were attended by a large num?
ber of guests. At each booth some DOW article
was exhibited which gave an' air of freshness to
even the old habitues of tho Bazaar. The con?
fectionery table was literally covered with delica?
cies and was liberally patronized by those who
preferred sweetmeats to greenbacks, whilo the
supper room was not neglected and its choice
viands soon disappeared before the inroads of the
hungry visitors.
SENTENCE TN THE HARTMAN CASE-THE REMARES
OF GENEB? CANBY.-IU November last Mr. E. F.
Hartman, of Rantowle's, was arrested by some
negroes and brought at night to thia city. When
the party arrived here Mr. Hartman was released
and the negroes were arrested and turned over to
the military authorities. The negroes, viz: Squash
Bowles, Sandy Stoplight, Tom Bryan, and Peter
Brown, were tried by military commission and
sentenced to two years' imprisonment, and this
sentence has been mitigated by General Canby to
two months' imprisonment at hard labor.
In announcing the sentence in General Orders
Nc. 159, General Canby says:
H. It appears, from the investigation of the
foregoing case, that on the afternoon of Saturday,
November 2, a dispute occurred between two per?
sons, uot parties to this trial, and that the inter?
ference of a third peraon resulted in a breach of
the peace, the merits of which disturbance have
not been investigated. The cause of the. negro
was espoused by some of his friends, who, to the
number of eight or ten, went to tho house of Hart?
man, and demanded satisfaction for the alleged
assault. Atter some angry discussion the party
left and applied to a neighboring magistrate tb
obtain a wai rant for the arrest of Hartman. This,
for some reason which does not appear, was re?
fused, and the party then retired and announced
their determination to take Hartman to Charles?
ton and turn him over to tho military authorities.
'The prisoners allege, in substance, that ) volun?
teered to come with them; that there was o arrest
and no violence; but the evidence is clear that :he
volunteering was under the constraint of threats
that force would be employed if ne refused. Upon
reaching the city Hartman was released, and the
arresting party" was turned over to the military
authorities, and brought to trial upon the charge
of falso imprisonment.
It does not appear from the evidence, that the
prisoners had any other motive in making thc
arrest than to procure, by proper means, tue re?
dress ol a wrong that had been inflicted upon one
of their companions. Failing to obtain action
from the no^rest civil authority, they assumed the
ower to arrest und bring tho alleged offender
efore the nearest militan authorities. This as?
sumption was a legitimate deduction from the
laws of the State? and the practice toward the
black population: but this power is subject to gross
abuses, and its exercise should not be permitted
except in the case of grave crimes, or when there
is manifest dauger that the delay in procuring the
necessary warrant will enable thc criminal to
escape. lhere was no such necessity in this case,
and both tho arrest and the maimer in which it
was made are without sufficient justification
'Tho Commanding General thinks this is a proper
occasion to mvito attention to the fact that seve?
ral of the disorders that have recently been brou ht
to his notice have resulted from the criminal con?
do Jt of white iueu to the blacks, and the indiff?r?
ence with which well founded complaints of the
latter have been treated bv local magistrates
This course is not an impartial administration oi'
justice, nor is it Well calculated to preserve tin
peace of the community.
To thia last paragraph particular attention is
called. No such cases have come to our knowledge,
and we are satisfied that the opinions of the \: -t
majority of the people of this State are altogether
Opposed to any injustice towards any race or class
of men. It has always been claimed with reason
that this State win just in all ils dealings ; and
each c.tizen will be doing no more than his duty
in seeing that every negro, without exception, re?
ceives the same treatment before the law that is
meted out to the white man. To this the negro
is entitled, and to this he certainly has a just and
equitable claim.
THE NEW GERMAN LUTHERAN CHI
LAYING TBS CORXERSTOSE.
THE ASSEMBLY-THE PROCESSION-TBE ARRIVA
ADDRESSES-LAYING THE STONE-TBE il
SONIC RITE-NEARLY AX ACCIDENT.
40., *C, AC, ?LC.
The great event of thc season, the laying
corner-stone of the new Gem?an Lutheran C
took place yesterday.
Tho German Lutheran Church, at the coi
Anson and Hasel streets, was the place of rr.
for tho different societies and organizations
were to march in procession to the spot win
corner-etono was to bo laid. The sun was s
with almost lutolorable brightness, and thc
not a single cloud to dim the splendor ot the
lu the interior of the church there were asst
at about midday tho children ol' the St. Mat
Sabbath School. Aa they arrived they w
vided into classes, under the direction of tht
cipal. Mr. A. J. Hoffman. About three hi
and fltty cf the Sabbath school children wen
ent, with twenty-eight teachers. The numi
boys and girls was about the same.
But the children were not the first to arri
though they have the place of honor. Ea<
ciety formed nt its own hall and marched t
place of meeting, the German Firo Compai
riving the first, though all were prompt and
tua!.
When the organization of the Sabbat ii t
had been completed they were marched int
j in rear of the Germau Fire Company, whic
tho procession. At this moment the stra
j music were he;'rd, and the other societies 1
I were to compose the procession came upc
I ground, preceded by the Post Band, and fell
J the positions assigned to ther~ by the Marsl
j X. Fehrenbach and John Campsen.
THE PROCESSION.
I Thc following is the order of the processi
it left old St. Matthew s Church:
Post Band.
German Fire Company.
Sunday School St. Matthew's Church.
Turn-Vercin.
Rifle Club.
Br?derliche Bund.
S?ngerbund.
German Artillery Relief Association.

Freundschaftsbund. "
Congregation St. Matthew's Church.
Military and Civil Officers and Clergy.
Vestry St. Matthew's Church.
Building Committee.
Lutheran Ministrv.
I This order is altogether different trom
already published, some necessary changes ha
j been made by the indetatigable marshals.
The line ol the procession was through Has
J King, and along that street to their destinai
and it may be noticed her- that the proc?s
met punctually, moved off punctually, and ai
I ed upon the ground at exactly thc timo which
I been previously laid down. Along the route tl
I was great and evident interest. The steps of
postoffice, the steps of Trinity Church, the di
I of the stoics, and indeed all available spots, v
I occuniod by eager spectators. Those who \
j deprived of tho gratification of participating v
j determined to show that their hoarts were in
J good and holy work.
I TUE SITE.
The site of the new church was of course
J great centre of interest, and tho greater par
I those who did not walk in tbo procession
evidently made up their minds to have a full v
J of the proceedings on tie spot where tho st
I was to b o laid.
In the middle of the lot, which was enclosed
I the King-street sids by a wooden fence, wa
j deep hole where a foundation had once stood.
I hind this was an elevated platform for the cle
I and officials. This platform was task-fully de
I rated with pine bushes. In tim northeast cor
of the lot was a brick column with a hollow cenl
I aud by this stood the corner-stone itself. At
! back of tlu lot were piles of old brick, which i
j be made use of in the erection of the new bui
bag
I But tho crowd was the great feature of the r
ments that were passed in waiting for the arri
I of the procession. On the upper side of tho
I Stauda the house occupied formerly by Fatl
O'Neil, the piazzas of which were filled with fai
I donned ladies and groups of sportivo childn
I On the lower side the brick wall was covered w
I eager spectators, and the wooden fence in frc
formed an insecure perch where clung nuinbc
of men and boys. By two o'clock at least o
thousand persons were on the ground, and ll
number was increasing every minute. At abo
two the music of the approaching procession w
heard, and shortly afterwards the gates wt
opened and thc long line began to tile into po
tion.
THE ARRIVAL.
As the band, at tho head of the processiti
reached the gatos of tho lot it halted, and co
tinued to play stirring music until every pers<
had entered. The firo company lined tho path t
wards the gate for some distanco, and through tl
double lino formed by its members passed tho re
of tho procession. First came Ihe Sabbath scho
children who filed to tho right and took a positic
near thc corner-stone. Thcte was then a paus
and in a minute or two thoro entorcd the venerab
Dr. Bacbman in his ministerial robes, supporte
on thc right and left by tho Revs. L. Miulcr ar
W. S. Bowman. By them Dr. Bachman was o
I coned to the speaker's stand already mentioned.
The rest of the procession had now arrived, ar
every inch of available room was occupied. Wall
fences, mouuds, piazzas, which commanded ar
kind of view cf the sceno, were seized upon by tl
I eager spectators. Tho windows of the Boviste
Houso, the windows and parapets of thc Citade
I tree boughs and chimnoy pots, were darkened I
those who saw from a distance, and thc wall in th
I rear, which separates tho church enclosure fro:
the Orphan House, was dotted with excited younf
sters who saw nothing and were delighted accort
THE CEREMONIAL.
[ AU bellly ready the ceremonial commenced, am
after au invocation to the Trinity, to which th
S?ngerbund responded, Hymn 3, verses 1-3
commencing "Praise the Lord,' was sung by th'
S?ngerbund, tho band accompanying the sing
ers.
A prayer was then offered by Eov. W. S. Bow
man, in which he invoked thc blessing of tho Al
mighty upon tho church about to bo commenced
upon thc congregation, the architects, the building
committee, and the workmen to be engaged in itt
construction.
After tho reading of the Apostles' Creed, Rev.
Dr. Bachman arose, his white hairs gleaming like
silver iu the sun, and proceeded to deliver the fol?
lowing eloquent and appropriate address:
THE ADDRESS OF PR. BACBMAN.
My Christian Frimas :
Ou this very interesting and solemn occasion,
my Christian "frieuds, wo meet to rejoice together
tl at Ged in ais mercy is still piesent with his chil?
dren. We yesterday commemorated the Redeem?
ers birth-day in the last week of the dying year,
and we como to-day to lay the foundation of a tem?
ple reined in his honor aud service, and to be dedi?
cated to his name.
Three hundred and fifty years have passed away
since the great events occurred that proclaimed
the doctrines of Protestantism and of the Bible,
to be the truths ot God. Three and a hali centu?
ries have elapsod since the great Luther gave to
tho world thuse Theseses which have since formed
the creed of all Protestant nations, and which have
carried thc light of leligion and an open Bible
throughout a Large portion of tho earth.
lt is during my own ministerial labors in Charles?
ton that 1 have been permitted to witness the
spread of our sentiments in our Citv and State.
A small dilapidated building, which Las now dis?
appeared, contained all that could bc collected,
both of German and English, nf those who lind
embraced the faith ol' Luther. Ihe English lan?
guage had just been introduced into the services
of tho church, and no doubt thc German tras still re?
garded as the language most needed in the Luthe?
ran Church of America. liuie hus passe 1 .uvuy,
and generation after generation lias come and
gone. He who ministered at that altar in his
youth, comes now with tottering steps, in the
days of his oki ago, to testify to you and to the
world his faith in those doctrines which he pro?
claimed in tbis city titty-three years ago--senti?
ments which luve encouraged and supported him
through his long and weary pilgrimage, and which
cheei hun now. when thc labors ol his life are
about to close.
"Ol Jerusalem, if I forgot thee, let my right
hand forget her cunning; if I do not remember
thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof ol in\
mouth, if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief
jov."
God has signally blessed our beloved church in
this city from that day to this. In a short time
our original church building became too small to
contain our congregation, a new and a much larger
chinch was then erected. After some years it
again was found insufficient to contain the in?
creased congregation of German and English
worshippers. Auoilier church wasbuiltuigre.it
harmony, expressly to accommodate the spiritual
?ants of the Gentians. In time the English con?
gregation again became too large to be accommo?
dated iu the hist English Church, and a third cou
t,ri gstion was formed, which is now !" ? tlourishi og
slate.
Another English Luther.in Church is called for
on Ch rleciOQ N ck, Which il is hoped will soon bo
Imdt. Ai length it became evident that thc Ger?
man Church would nu louder serve the wants of
the increasing number of Germans, and we have
met to-day t.j lav thc Inundation of an edifice,
which, ?heu compl?tai, will be among tho largest
and most imposing of any in our city.
Who thal is interested in tho succc
doctrine of tho Reformation will not rej
us that God has so signally sanctioned an
those efforts, which hare bern made to
heeds ot divine truth into a soil so cong:
which has vieided snell abundant ErUli
honor and glory ot God.
Let thc aged mau who now addtosses
vise his Uer man friends, in erecting th
to the worship of God, to bo actuated by
spirit that caused Luther and tho early R
to go forward with united zeal ami pen
iu carrying on this great work of 1'
Christianity. Do not allow difficulties to
age you. Let there be no strife between
ye are brethren. Remember that you aro
in a worK that will bo a blessing to your
and descendants to tho latest posterity; let
that we are not ashamed of tho languago i
aturo, thc morals and religion of our Gera
fathers. Germany has given a tone to
osophy, literature and science of th
Luther's translation of tho Biblo is a i
work, not only in the purity of the langu
has accompanied the German emigrant
fatherland to every portion of the globe,
then, my German" brethren, and in tho
love of God erect to His name jour holy
which will be an honor to your adopted
and will be an evidence of your zeal and
in the cause of our beloved church.
Here, in after acos, when tin se hoar
shall ?ie low in the dust, will tho anthems <
ascend from human voices to the court;
living God; here will Loste of children,
born, bo olio-red up at tho font of baptit
will the young crowd to the altar and bo d<
by confirmation to the Saviour of sinners,
tins alter will thousands come to celebi
broken body and shed blood of the Lor
Christ, and herc, when your labors on ear
be ended will the bodies of thoso who wor
together in love be laid m their coffins tc
the last funeral rites, "earth to earth, a
ashes, dust to dust;" and here will the m
como to imbibe tho comforting assurances,
; thc resurrection and the life;, he 'hat nelli
me, though he were dead, yet shall he li
whosoever livoth and beliov?th in me sha
die."
And now I pray that God may bless i
praiseworthy efforts in this holy cause; th
beloved pastor may b? spared to see the <
tion of the work in which he is so deeply ii
cd; that he mav dedicate this holy dimple
service of the Triune God: that ho may
tho influence of God's Holy Spirit in the
sion of thousands to tho Redeemer; and th?
all our troubles shall bc ended, and our sui
bc gone down, we may all meet in that 1
world where wnr and despotism, and oppi
and siu and sorrow shall be unknown, and t
enjoy immortal and blissful happiness throi
the ages ol' oternity. Amen !
At the close of the address, the cerem
laying the corner-stone was begun.
ADDRESS BT MB. MULLER.
At thc northeast corner of tho lot then
hollow space, and in it stood the stone whic
form the northeastern angle of the new c
Around the stone were grouped the Mason
ternily and the Odd Fellows.
The Rev. Mr. Muller, who had left tho spc
stand, now took np a position on the brid
over the cavity where the stone was to bi
and delivered the following introductory adc

assistance, protection and blessing'while w

and in which His Holy Name will be adoroi

Mr. Muller thcu read the Lord's Prayer,

He then continued Iiis address is these woi

In order to preserve these documents for all
they have boen put in air-tight glass vesae
which two have been prepared, one for reli

Mr. Muller then read a list of .he various ur
which were to le puL ! the r^r.ier-stone as si
viz : A Bible, Rules and By-Laws cf the Ch
specifications of tho building, roll ?f^iho 1
bera, vestry, and pastor of tho church, witl
church seal attached ; the names of tho tw
eight Sabbath school teachers; four rcli?
papers : the Moravian Messenger, the Lull
Herald, the Lutheran Gazette, and tho Evai
cal Lutheran ; coin of tho United States, frc
half cent to one dollar in gold, which were all
fained in one glass vessel. In the second v
were ccpies ot the CHARLESTON DAILT NEV
yesterday and Wednesday, and copies of the c
city dailies of Wednesday; the last message of
President of the Unitod States, specimens of

the names ot the officers of thc City Governn
with the city seal ; the register of the German
Company, some few private records, a co
plate, engraved by Anion Bicckc, with the da
the resolution of the congregation to build a
church, and this present dote, and also thc na
of tho Budding Committee.
Mr. Muller then placed the vessels in the ca'
and by their sido put a bunch of fresh vio
Baying :
Although these little tlowors are children of
cay, and seem to be no lasting emblem to pres*
to futurity, they arc still highly fit to be lai
such a spot. I hey are beautiful emblems of
Christian faith. Like t!;o violets, all of usn
bloom and die, and may wc, like them, bc n:

ing Saviour. Their color reminds us of Hea\
and symbolizes Christian faith. May fail!
Christ remain with us for over more. Amen.
LAYING THE C0RNEB-8T0NE.
Mr. Muller then said :
Our Help is in tho name of the Lord.
Response by the Choir-Who has made Hcu
and Earth.
Minster-Where tho Lord docs not buili
house, thoso that build will como to naught.
Then, striking thc stone three times, Mr. Mu
said :
In the name of thc Father, of thc Son, ant
thc Holy Ghost. Amen. I lay the corncr-stouc <
building that shall b-- hero erected, nnCrr
name of St, Matthew's Church, and that is
bo dedicated tu the servico of Almighty God,
cording to tho faith of the Evangelical Lathe
Church, in doctrine, office and devotional usa:
No foundation can any mau lay but that whicl
in Jesus Christ, Lord above all, and praised to
eternity, by whom wo have salvation through
blood, nauiolv, the forgiveness of sins accord
to thc rich abundance ol' his grace.
THE MASONIC CEREMONIES. *
P. W. M. A. Mclchers, of Walhalla Lodge, p
formed thc Masonic ceremonies, which were beg
by the Masonic ode, "When Earth's Foundat
first was Laid." After a lew brief remarks-duri
which the cavity was filled with cement and I
corner-stone luid over it with thc inscription dov
wards-the plumb, square and level were appli
to the stone in their proper positions, und t
stone was declared to be "wcll-iornicd, true a:
trusty."
P. W. M. A. Moleneis then scattered corn up
the stone, and poured upon it wine and oil. Aft
a prayer he struck the stone three times, and, t
work being done, delivered the various 111 piemen
ot architecture to the architect accurdmg to M
sonic usage.
The anthem '"Let there be Light" waa then sui
by tho fraternity, and tho regular exhortatic
upon the privileges and obligations of ?Mason:
was delivered.
The ceremony of laying the stone being eon
pleted, a prayer was offered by Rev. W. S. Bot
man, and the hymn "Now thank yo all the Lord
was sung. Th'- concluding benediction waa d<
livered in German by Dr. Bachman.
THE STONE AND TUE CAVITY.
The cavity of thc stone was cut in u solid bloc
of brown sand-stone, and was tight inches deep I]
ten inches long and twelve inches broad. Xii

While Dr. Bachman was delivering bia admira?

the ground. No one is believed to have beci
hurl, although it waa rumored that a colored chile
had ha.I his ara' broken. A little later in the after?
noon a policeman arrested a colored maa who
was throwing bark at the persona passing by,
The colored m in broke away, and was seized In a
white man. A negro named James Johnson cried
ont that tho colored utan was to bu taken to Du

probable. The ?Mice came il)? but the original

CONCLUSION.
It was a beautiful day, and a noble work; tho ar?
rangements were in every way judicious and com?
plote; there was no break in the comrie of thc
ceremonies; thc large attendance showed tho in?
terest of tho goncral public. Tho pastor and thc
vestry arc congratulated upon their successful
first stop, and it is hoped that, before many months
have passed, wc may chronicle tho opening of that
sacred building which is to be known as St. Mat?
thew's Lutheran Chnrch.

be considered Christmas carole. The childi en
were crowded closely together, and did not nppear
near so many as wo know they were, but when

twenty-eight classes.
The school numbers from three hundred and
fifty to tlneo hundred and seventy-five children.
Average attendance three hundred.
The boys were ranccd to the right of the stage
in the auditorum, and the girls to the left, the
Christmas tree in thc centre. Behind the tree on
tho stage were seated the larger girls of the school,
who took part in the exercises, reading, singing
and playing on the piano, whenever it came to
thoir turn.
The hall was tastefully decorated with ilowcrs
and evergreens, but tho Christmas tree was the
chief object of attraction. It was a large pine
branch, as usual in sucli cases, profusely hung
With fruit and dainties, buming tapers, and all
sorts of glittering beauties. On its boue hs was
lead the great Gospel inscription, as rendered by
Luther: "Lube, ichverkundigecuchgros.se Freude,
denn euch is', heute der l?euan'J geboren." ["Be?
loved, I annoimco to you good tidings of great
joy, for to you this day is a Saviour born."]
Tho exercises wero very interesting, tho moro
so because they were iu a large mcasuro im?
promptu, the celebration having only been ar?
ranged a lew days ago. They consisted of sing?
ing, reading, declamation, and music on tho piano.
Thc first part of the programme was followed by
a re?ois of a f<w miuutes, during which time thc
children wero treated to refreshments, which they
enjoyed no less than the feast of reason which
preceded and followed.
As a curious teaturo we ma)' oJservo that of tho
two score of little performers who trod thc mimic
stago last uight wo did not s>3e a single one who
had a dark complexion or bla'?k hair. They wero
all, as Caesar had so long ago depicted thoir an
cesi >rs, of light hair and blue eyes.
Mi, Hoffman, tho teachers and the committee,
doser *e special credit for tho admirable manner
in which everything was arranged and executed;
and in the enjoyment we saw depicted on every
countenance, these gentlemen found an ample re?
ward. ' Their compatriots nevertheless owe Hiern a
large . ebt of gratitude for so genial and lathcr
londish a Christmas entertainment, w hich will bc
long i clambered, we feel assured, by both young
and old.
MINIATURE REPKES I>1\CATIOW OF THE NATIVITY.
The Sisters of Mercy, who have charge of th.
academy and orphan asylum in this city, have
been at some pains to furnish their pupils with a
Christmas surpriso that would bo both instructiro
and entertaining. They decided that * faithful
representation of tho Nativity, as described in tho
New Testament, would not only be appropriate to
the season, but would refresh and improve thc
mind. A portion of thc schoal-room was partition?
ed oil* and shaped by evergreens in tho form of a
grotto, in tho rear of which thc mountain of Judea
was seen.' These were admirably represented
and appeared true to naturo, thc rocky sides,
steep declivities and winding paths were plainly
visible, liphted by tho Star of Bethlehem, which
shown brightly from the evening sky. On
thc mountains were sacn thc shepherds
who were attracted by the lifcht of tho
star and wero making their way to tho cave, where
the iufant Jesus was born. They were followed by
their Hocks, who were gazing wondrously at the
unusual light. At thc foot of tho mountain thc
lowly manger was seen guarded by angels, who
pointed to tho Saviour of men. Scvoral shepherds
and tho Virgin mother wero in thc cave watching
the cradle. The skies, mountains and general
econery were painted in exact imitation of na?
ture, a id over all thc Gloria in Excclsis appeared
in golden letters, while at the entrance of thc cave
was tho motto, VENITE ADOREMOS. Tho angelic
hosts were seen in the skies hymning praises to
the new-born Saviour. Tho representation wai in
every respect beautifully executed, and well calcu?
lated to impress tho beholder with the sublimity
of tho occasion. It was a great treat to tho little
charges of tho Sisters, and?was visitod yesterday
by numbers of persons who were unanimous in
their praises.
A BLAZE OF BUNTING.-To tho Spanish vessols
in port the credit has been avrarded, by general
consent, of having made the handsomest display
of bunting on Christmas day, that has boen seen
at this port in many years. Particularly noticea?
ble was the taste displayed on board tho brigs
"Phoenix," "Paco" and "Leonore," lying at the
foot of Pinckney-street. Tho national signal flags,
in great profusion, were strung from the main?
mast-head to the main-yard, forming a pyramid of
gorgeous colors, which attracted the attention of
passers-by even up on Meeting-street. We could
wish for a larger stock of bunting on our Ameri?
can ships, but economy sccm9 to limit them in
the matter of flags.

YALE COLLEGE. November 16, 1?C6. 1
I have always recommended thc Faber Polvorada
, Lead PeucUs as the only pencils fitted lor both ornamen?
tal aud mathematical drawing; but, alter a thorough
trial of the American Polygrade Lead Pencils, man
manured by the American Lea? Pencil Company, New
York. I nnd them superior to any pencil in use, even to
Hie Faber or thc old EngUsh Cumberland Lead Pend],
bein;; a superior ponci' for sketching, ornamental and
mechanical drawing, and .-.U tho ordinary u;esofalead
pencil.
These pencils are very finely ?rraded and have a very
smooth lead; ? ven thc solteet pencil* hold the point web;
(hoy are all that eau bo desired in a pencil. It gives ma
(treat pleasure to be able to usare Americans that they
will no longer bo eompcUed to depend upou Germany or
?ny other loreign market for pencils,
