A CORRECTION. -In tho NEWS of yesterday it wa
wrongly stated that an inquest had bee n held up
the body of Mr. Campbell, who died from injuries J
ceived while travelling upon the South Carolin
Railroad. Mr. Campbell was brought to this eil
and takeu to the houae of his brother, where
received every comfort, and was attended by Dr

tary bankruptcy was read and the schedule filed b
Wm. Munroe, Esq., and an order \ as issued l>\
the Judge, returnable to W. J. Clawsou, Esq
Register of Bankruptcy for tho Fourth Congres
sional District.
Allison W. Chance, Esq., of Lancaster District
was appointed Commissioner for the United
Stute?.
SOUTH CAROLINA LAW REPORTS.-The LUI
volume of Richardson's Law Reports, containing
appeals at law decided by the chief justices ol
South Carolina during the years 18G6 aud 13G7, has
just been received by the publishers, Messrs. E. J
Dawson, of this city. The3e reports arc of 8vo.
neatly bound in law sheet, and are indispensible
to every lawyer's library. Richardson's Report
have been legal authority for years, and there are
few members of the bar who wiJl not avail them
selves of the present opportunity and secure a
copy of the work.
SP ARRINO MATCH.-I he fancy will have an op
portunity of indulging in their taste for the manly
art to-night, as a sparring match will be given this
evening at the Hibernian Hall by noted pugilists
of this city and New York. The performances will
be varied by singing and dancing, by banjo players
and negro minstrels. Darby Kelly, of New York,
will engage with Mr. Wm. H. White, of Boston, in
a grand sj arring match. A number of other per?
sons well k aown in sporting circles will ap.pt.-ar and
participate in the evening's entertainment. To
those who are posted in tho science some fun is
promised.
THE LOSS OF THE RALEIGH_The Captain oi the
steamer Ashland, which arrived at Savannah yes?
terday, reports seeing off this city a vessel so low in
the water that he could not make out her name, but
which he supposed to bc tho wreck of the Raleigh.
This account is very vague and unsatisfactory. If
the Ashland was so near as to make out what the
wreck was. she might, it seems, SIBO have ascer?
tained whet er any living persons were then upou
it. But, if the Raleigh was afloat as late as Thurs?
day night, there ia still hope that some of the
missing crew may have been taken off by a pass?
ing vessel.
YOUNO MENS CHRISTIAN AS^UTIOX.- The in?
terest thr.L was lately felt by the community in re?
ligious : .atters was in a great measure due to thc
exertions of the Yoong Men'- .ristian Associa?
tion, who furthered the canse by the excellent ser?
mons that were delivered I ire them. These
sermons have given great pleasure to the religious
community, and have been the means of attracting
numbers of young persons to the house of prayer.
The association havo determined to continue the
good work, and, to make their weekly discourse
still more popular, they have engaged Iho services
of several eminent divines, who will preach before
them, at intervals, during the winter. Dr. J. A.
Broadus, of Greenville, a distinguished divine, will
deliver several dieoonrses during the winter, and
will be succeeded by others of equal force aB pul?
pit orators.
INNOCENTS DAY OR CHIEDERMAS. - The 23th of
December has been observed from an early period
in the history of the church as a festival com?
memorative of the barbarous massacre of the
children of J^ethlohoni by King Herod. In conse?
quence of the feeling of horror growing out of
such an act of atrocity, Innocents Day used to bc
considered the most unlucky during tho year, and
no one, who could avoid it, eLtered upou any work
on this anniversary. In ancient times thc massa?
cre of the innocents was partially re-enacted in
the shape of a sound whipping, which it was cus?
tomary to administer to the juvenile members of
the family at an early hour in tho morning. This
proceeding beiug somewhat unpleasant to the
sufferers, the practice was adopted of rising from
their conches before their elders and in turn at?
tacking those who were too sleepy headed. No
importance is now attached to the day.
A GEM OF A PICTURE.-Mr. J. J. Muudy, a pho?
tographic artist, who has recently opened his gal?
lery in King-street, on tte Citadel Green, has
created some excitement by his gem pictures.
These aro admirably named, for the likeness is
transferred in an instant and the impression is
invariably correct. Four, eight or sixteen of them
can be taken for a dollar, and aro enclosed in card
frames of different sizes. The gem picture is
taken by a new process that is quite popular in
the northern cities, aud is extensively used for
carte de visites. Mr. Muudy has had a long expe?
rience in this business, and the pictures furnished
by him are finished in the best manner know u.
His atelier, on King-street, is supplied with all the
necessary conveniences, and the sample pictures
show at once that they are indeed gems.
TEE WIDOWS' HOME BAZAAR.-The Bazaar last
night presented even more than its usual attrac?
tions, and was attended by a largo number of per?
sons, who took advantage of the fine weather and
the conveniences offered by the street cars to pro?
long their stay to the closing hour. There have
been few fairs in this city that have been more
popular than the Bazaar, for, aside from its charita?
ble object, the arrangement of thc different tables,
tho decorations, and thc articles offered for sale,
show that the ladies have entered upon their work
with a zeal that must insure success. Tho ladies
of Richmond and Baltimore hearing of this Bazaar,
and learning its object, were liberal in their dona?
tions, and some of the moat attractive- articles
were furnished by them. Although the rooms are
small, and it would seem almost impossible to
make any display, each tablo is conspicuous, while
there is sufficient space for thc promenaders. The
ladies who have undertaken the charitable task of
providing ho ncs for thc loved onc-s of our dead
soldier-bc.. * deserve great credit. They arc labor?
ing in a go ri cause, and there are lew w ho will re?
frain from .ontributing their mite. The Bazaar
will bd opened again to-night, when the drawings
tor tbs prizes will take place.

A NEW SCHOOL von THE COLORED CHILDREN
CHARLESTON.--The number of colored childrc

whom only 3.000 now receivo the advantage
education. Since tie introduction of tho Bui
of Freedmen, aa a part of the military govcrnn
of the land, considerable attention has beeu i
to the education of ibo colored classes, and si
ral schools both public and private were establ
ed in the city. These schools were found to
insufficient to accommodate the largo numbei
pupils, and aome mouths back a contract was
te rod into, and a new building commenced in B
street. This school-house which was fully descri
by the NEWS at the time, is still uncompleted,
contractors having been delayed in procuring
necessary stones for sills and coping, which h
but recently arrived from New York. The work
now progressing, and tho school will be opon at
early day.
lit being fouud that even with this additio
school-home, there were a number of children
the upper warda wno were not receiving the be:
fits of au education, the Bureau officials det
mined to erect another building on Rutledge A
nue, which would be convenient to persons livi
in that section. This new building will be of wo<
two stories high, with a brick basement, anc . \
be able to accommodate between 700 and 8'0 {
pils. The first floor will be divided into on-j hu
hall, capablo of holding 800 or 400 children, a
four class rooms for fifty each. The toco
Boor will have six class rooms, each for fi:
pupils. The builuiug will be quite ornara*
tal, and will be surmounted by a small c
palo; stans w?l be inside with au entrance
either end. Great care will be taken to ?
eure ventilation, and make thc rooms light a
un-. It is proposed to erect this building
the cast side of Rutledge Avenue above Morr
street, aud the Bureau has already advertised f
proposils for its construction, to be handed in I
the middle of January.
TESTIMONLVL TO THE REV. E. J. ME?NARDIL. -
PLEASANT RECNION.-It was om- good fortune yt
tcrday evening to assist at a ''sutprise party" of
?omewbat unusual ch-racter. According toll
edict put forth by Bishop Doggett at the rece
session of the South Carolina Conference, Row ]
J. Meyuardie, pastor of Trinity Church, was r
moved from his late charge, and appointed
Charlotte, N. C. Thia is quite m accordauce wil
Methodist usage aud the principles of the itinerai
ey, but it was contrary to the wishes of the coi
gregatiou, who had become much attached to M
Meynardie.
In order to convey some tangible expression i
their regard for then late pastor, the membei
quietly arranged a surprise. They procured
handsome silver pitcher and salver of Mr. A. 1
Hayden, and having, by a pious fraud, succecdc
in getting the pastor and family out of the wa;
thc gentle invaders took forcible possession of ti
parsonage From the number present wo belier
there arc strong grounds for assuming that a re?
ular conspiracy has been set on foot. Nearly a
thc prominent members of thc congregation wc:
there, aud many outside friends. About cigl
o'clock Mr. M. and family arrived, and were not
little auprised at finding so goodly a eompai
around their hearth. Mr. \Y. H. Smith, of tl
Board of Stewards, i-ho had been deputed for tl
purpose, thc addressed Mr. Meynardie, explaii
ing the object of the gathering, and ina few word
simple and pathetic, expressed the affection of tl
congregation for their minister, and the regn
they all felt at parting with him. Ho then pr
seuted the ailver aervice aa a feeble token ol' thc
appreciation of his worth.
Mr. M., muon affected, replied in a few hup)
remarks. Hia eloquence was ol' the heart, au
readUy found accord in the hearts of all preaon
He paid a most touching tribute to General Jame
Simons (who honored tho occasion with bia prei
ence), as bia early teacher, counsellor and frieiu
to whose kindneaa and judicious direction he e:
pressed himself much indebted. It is of court
impossible to give even a faint reflection of an ou
burst of emotion such as was this imprompt
speech of Mr. Meynardic's, and wo should do ir
justice to him wero we to attempt it.
Speeches over, the company was invited u
stairs, where thc invaders had prepared a pier
teous repast. The table was very bandsomel
set, and everything arranged with much taste
The supper, we learn, was contributed by th
members of thc congregation, and reflected muc
credit on those who had thc superintending care
Wc heard nothing but encomiums on tho excel
lenee of its several component parts. The rcunioi
was a happy one, and parting itself almost mad'
pleasant by this happy reminiscence associatei
with it.
On the pitcher were engraved the initials, 'E. J
M.," and on the salver, "Rev. E. J. Meynardie
Trinity Church, Charleston."
THE NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY-COM
MENDABLE LIBERAIATV.- Although persons an
continually dying, yet few expect they will soon be
callod, and therefore are little inclined, by a pres?
ent sacrifice, to provide against an evil which,
though they know to be certain, they yet suppose
to be distant. Thc benefits to be derived from Life
Insurance arc, however, becoming daily better ap
predated; and the fair dealing aud prompt pav .
iue.it made by compauiea, oven on losses for which
they might not be legally liable, baa inspired gen?
eral confidence in their system and practice. Aa
un instance, we publish, by permis ?on, the fol?
lowing interesting letter:
OWEN SOUND, CAVADA WEST, /
December, 1867. \
To Thomas Fruit Fsq., Agent for South Caro um
of ihf New York Lift Insurance Company
DEAR SIR-I hereby acknowledge payment in
full of the policy of thc New York Life Insurance
Company, Ni" 40.115, for t>'n thousand dollars
i?lO.000), on the fife of my deceased husband,
Adam jj. Glover, insured December, 1867 and ter?
minated May, 1607.
In view of the questions which might have
arisen in the case, I regard the settlement us an
act ol noble liberality, becoming the high rank of the
Company, as first in the order of establishment
and assets of the Life Insurance Companies of the
State of Nev. York having agencies in South t aro
Ima. Its twenty-two years of successful and dis?
tinguished op?ration must undoubtedly have beeu
marked bj many like acts of enlarged and gene?
rous conduct, to have ?on the confidence in its
skill an 1 integrity, with winch the public is now ao
fully inspired.
So grateful is un realization of tho benefit of
Lile Insurance, in my present bereaved and re?
duced, from lately blessed and affluent condition,
that 1 cannot forbear recommending its adoption
to all in whatever circumstances. The affliction 1
have oxperienced was in no way anticipated either
by my lamented husband or myself; and it is due to
yon to say that it was only by your advice and per
suasion that he was induced to effect the insur
nuce. I believe it an institution providentially de
signed for the benefit of women and children.
With my best wishes for the continued useful?
ness and spread ot your Company, I am, most
gratefully yours, ANNIE 13. GLUVER.
