CHARLESTON LTBKABY SOCIETY.-Members will notice the call for tho regular quarterly meeting to he held to-morrow at 1 P. M. Miss CHARLOTTE THOMPSON, the eminent actress, is, we see, starring it at the Temple? ton's Theatre in Savannah. If the Messrs.

Faber, formerly of Charleston, but who for many years resided in Europe having but reoently returned (in the bark Gauss) from tho University of Heidel? berg, Germany, on a call to the Professorship of Ancient Languages in Furman University, at Greenville, S.

NEW PROVOST MARSHAL-GENERAL_Ry Gene? ral Orders No. 3, from General Canby's head? quarters, dated January 10, Brevet Lieutenant Colonel G. A. Wilhams, Major 6th Infantry, is announced as Provost Marshal-General of the Second Military District, releasing Brevet Brigadier-General E. W. Hinks, who, as here? tofore announced in the DAILY NEWS, is trans? ferred to the Post of Goldsboro', N. C. THE WBONQ Box.-The number of " vacant " boxes at the Charleston postoffice, is a fair indication of foul times, more especially as years ago nearly every box was filled. Men are now so hard up that the cost of a box at the postoffice is beyond their means ; and so many during the last few months, have got into the " wrong box " that they have got out of the " right box " at the post?nico, and have nothing left. A GERMAN SETTLEMENT NEAR COLUMBIA. A colony of Germans, numbering about one hundred, have setded on the Middleton place, in Richland District, between Wateree River and Colonel's Creek, and about twenty-four miles from Columbia, They have gone to work with a vim-breaking up the ground, erecting substantial dwellings, besides various .out? houses, etc. The settlement or village, we learn, is to be called Germantown.

The number of pupils enrolled is boys 370, girls 448, and adults one. The number of new . pupils was fifty-six, and all the pupils but forty-four are between the ages of six and six- . teen. Four hundred and twelve pupils can : write on slates, and one hundred and thirty in : books. This report is a very satisfactory one, and is, in itself, the best compliment that can be paid the principal and teachers. BURNT TO DEATH.-A colored girl named 1 Catherine, a servant of Mr. B. F. Moise, was ' accidentally burned to death, on Saturdajs) at ? his residence in Bull-street, near Pitt. She was employed aa a ohild'B nurse, and had just placed the infant on his bed and moved to the fire, when her apron caught and was soon in a \ blaze. Her screams soon brought Mr. DeLeon from a lower room, and he succeeded in throw? ing bis coat and a blanket upon her and thus smothering the flames, but she had inhaled 1 the fire, and notwithstanding every resource that medical assistance could supply ? as tried death soon ensued. A CABD.-TO the Editors of the Baily News: Having seen by to-day's issue of your paper that a correspondent, signing himself "R. B. E.," has used my name among others as a can? didate for a position in the Convention of the Radical party about to assemble, I hereby dis? claim any connection with the party, nor could I be induced to hold any position in their Con? vention. Your obedient servant, WILLIAM M. MOLEN. Charleston, S. C., January 11th, 1858. THE CONVENTION AGAIN.-TO the Editors of the Baily News : I see that my name is men? tioned by an anonymous correspondent of the DAILY NEWS as one of the pereons likely to be chosen as messengers for the approaching 8tate Convention. Iou will oblige me by stating that the use of my name was entirely unauthorized, and that, even if chosen, I would decline to serve the convention either as messenger or in any other capacity. Respectfully, JOSEPH QUASH* DEDICATION OF ST. PETEB'S ROMAN CATHOLIO ( Ck)u>BED) 'CHUBOH-B:?BMON BY BISHOP LYNCH. -The ceremony of the dedication of St. Peter's Roman Catholic Ohuroh, intended for the espe? cial accommodation of the colored people pro? fessing that faith, tool: placo yesterday morn? ing. The edifice, whi^b was formerly known as the Went worth-street Synagogue, is situat? ed on the north side cf Went worth-street, be? tween Meeting and Anjon, and has been fitted np with pews, and otherwise altered, so as to adapt it to its newrjBe. The sanctuary and altar have been constructed with much taste, and, altogether, the church ?B ono of which the colored Catholics may be deservedly proud. Similar Catholic Churches for the use of the colored population were long ago established in New Orleans, and others, of moro recent origin, exist in New Ycrk, 8t. Louis, Baltimore and Washington. Tho pastor appointed for St. Peter's Church is the Rev. Aloysius Folchi, a young priest reoertly arrived here from Rome, of which place lie is a native. The dedication cer amonios commenced at half-past 8 o'clock in the morning, and were conducted in accordance with the prescribed forms of the Roman ritual. The procession, consisting of the Bight Rev. Bishop Lynch, with deacon, sub-deacon and the clergy, at? tended by acolytes, was formed before the door, where all remained standing while the proper prayers were chanted. The procession then moved slowly around the exterior of the build? ing, the clergy solemr ly intoning the Miserere, and the Bishop sprinkling the walls with holy water. Again pausing awhile before the door, the procession moved up the main aisle while the Litany was recited. Three other psalms were chanted, during which tho clergy moved around the interior of the church, sprinkling the walls as bet?re. The concluding prayers of the dedication proper were then said at the foot of the altar. The celebration ol High Mass followed, the pastor, Father Folchi, officiating as celebrant, with the Revs. John Hchacte and D. J. Quigley acting respectively as deacon and sub-deacon, and the Rev. C. B. Northrop as master of the ceremonies. We noticed also that the Rev. J. F. O'Neill and the Rev. Dr. Bermingham occupied places within the san :t nary. The sacred music ?vas furnished for the oc? casion by the combined choirs of the Cathe? dral Chapel and Sb. Patrick's Church, and Peter's Mass was SUE g in excellent style. At the close of the service, tho dedication sermon was preached by the Right Rev. Bishop Lynch. He opened by alluding to the satisfac? tion that it gave him to see to-day accomplish? ed a design that had been formed no less than seventeen years ago ay Bishop Reynolds ar> d himself, but the consummation of which had been prevented till now by various circum? stances. He then expounded the doctrine of public worship as taught by tho Catholic Church. It was fisting that man who was made of a body and uoul should pay homage to God with each. But, left to himself, be could know nothing of how he was to serve God ef? fectually. Therefor?), of old, the practice o: J rehgion had been revealed to the Patriarchs in varions ways-by angels, visions and prophets. Last of all, God had spoken in the person of j His divine Son, who came with authority to complete the fulneiis of revelation. He se? lected tbe Apostles, who, with their succes? sors, were to teach man till the end of time, instructing bim in the things w.iich Christ himself had taught to them. Tb J public wor? ship which they had established required an altar and a clean oblation-an altar whereof the heathen should not partake, an altar before which tho followers of Christ should kneel and worship as Ho has com? manded them. Th a Bishop then alluded to the church which hud just been dedicated, and which was henceforth "a holy place" belonging to God and not to man. Whoso entered it should remember that he was in the HOUBO of the Lord, and his demeanor should be humble and reverent accordingly. God hears our prayers everywhere, but with special readiness when offered before His altar. The Bishop exhorted his hearers to love, venerate, and be assiduous in frequenting their church that they might receive graces and blessings from Sod, so that, by fidelity in His service here, ihey might be blessed eternally with Him bere? ifter. The church was densely thronged through rat the ceremony, chiefly by colored people, ind we cannot but .?ope that the dedication of St. Peter's will be fae commencement of a new sra of religious interest HOTEL ABBIVAUL- Pavilion Hotel--T.

On Saturday a gentleman called on Lieutenant Hendricks, and ntated that during tho Christa mas holidays a valuable good ring had boon stolen from his wife, and he wished to recover it if psosible. Officers Coates and Caldwell promptly undertook the case, and in a few hours had nabbed the robber and the ring, as well as the party who purchased it. Both the thief and the receiver are colored, and tho ring, which coet $100 in gold, was traded off j twenty-five cDnte. A VENERABLE DIVINE.-Rev. John Bachman. D.D., pastor of tho English Lutheran Church of thia city, completed the fifty-third year of his ministry in that church yesterday, and de? livered an appropriate discourse from the words "Let us call to mind the days of the poet." Thc sermon was a historical retrospect, refer? ring chiefly to the past ministerial services of the preacher. The church was crowded both morning and evening with an attentive au? dience, many of whom had grown up under the teachings of ' ;- venerable pastor. Not withstanding lu* woig.it of years, Dr. Bachman is an active minister of the gospel, and his anniversary sermon evinced the same clearness and ability that has always distinguished his discourses. Dr. Bachman was born at Rhine beck, in the State of New York, in 1790, of old colonial family. His paternal ancestor, Swiss gentleman, came to America as private Secretary to William Penn. He was ordained to the ministry in 1812, and called to tho church in Charleston in 1815. For a time preached a wooden building in the rear of the present church, which was not erected until 1817. He was then in the habit of preaching a sermon the German language- onco every mouth, but this practice has been discontinued for some time. We have heard Dr. Bachman say, that the Dutch or Hollandish, then much spoken in the State of New York, was the language of his early youth, and that he had arrived at tho years manhood before he commenced the study German. Wo cannot withhold our admiration therefore at the thorough mastery he so soon obtained over this difficult language, enabling him to speak it with facility, and to preach even to an intelligent audience. Of Dr. Bach man's scientific attainments this is not the proper place to speak. For years he has been known throughout the world of let? ters as a distinguished naturalist; and his pen has been diligent in the cultivation of this vast and interesting field. His co-operation with the lamented Audubon"in the preparation of the Quadrupeds of North America, secured him multiplicity of learned titles from every civi lized country on tho globe. Hia monograph on the Unity of the Human Race was written in the interest of acience and revelation, and is worth reproduction in these daya of Ariel mania. Among the male members of Dr. Bachman congregation who had the pleasure of listening to hie anniversary discourse, waa one who was the first that had received the rite ot confirma? tion at his hands, and with the exception of an aged female member now abaent from the city is the oldest member of his flock, lhere are few ministers of the Gospol who have arrived at a riper ago than Dr. Bachman. He hoe con tinuod in the service of one church longer than any other, and with tho exception ot' Rev. Dr Hanckel, has been connected with the ministry a greater number of years than any other in the city. THAT DBDJQONQ OUT.-Our venerable con temporary, the Courier, is not always so prompt and vigilant as on Saturday, when with a vigor and activity hardly consistent with its ago, it undertook to drum out of the Borvice Private Michael Kearn ay, of Company A, G th United States Infantry, with the lucid remark, that "the process is too familiar to our (its) readers to need recital.'' It then pro? ceeds to ornament the back cf tho unfortunate man, before his time, with the placard, "thief," ind to otherwise vindicate offended military justice. Tho fact is that tho interesting cure tnony chronicled in thu Courier of Saturday ld not toko placo until last evening, at the iress parade of tho garrison on Citadel Green. The culprit had boen convicted before a court martial of stealing sundry articles of clothing ind I1G.90 in currency, and had boen sentenced a forfeit all pay and allowances and to be irummed out of the service with tho placard, 'thief, " upon his back, au narrated by tho an ioipative reporter of the Courier. After the parade had boen formed, Kearney was marched jy a guard in front of the troops aud througb lie open ranks, the drum beating time during .ho process. Ho was bareheaded and upon his lack was a board marked in large letters, 'thief." He did not appear to beat oil affected, md boro his equivocal honors with a smile. Uter being couuter-marehod before tho troops ie was remanded to tho guardhouse and w?l je reduced from a soldier to a citizon. There nras a larger aud more miscellaneous crowd cresent than we have seen on the Green at any ,ime since tho davis of the circus. THE NCOHOES IN THE INTEHIOH.-A gentle nan from the vioinity of Fort Motte yester lay, gave us? somo interesting particulars ibout the state of amt ii s in that Bection. He laid that very few of tho- freedmen were dis? posed to enter into contracts ; some few aro Tilling ' to hire," but have au aversion to the erm "contract." They say the league forbids hem .to make any contract. They are willing, ?owevor, to rent laud, expecting that upon tho neotiug of tho convention they would get their 'forty aerea." Ono gentleman proposed to soutracl with his laborers for another year. They told him they would not work for him. 'Then you must leave hero, as I want theso 10UB0S for such hands as I may ongage." Oue if tho freedmen thou stopped forward, and laid : "We ain't gwino to leave, and no odder ?ggers comin' here." "Who told you that you lould stay hero?" "A white man tole us ve must stay hero, and must not lot any oddors ?um hore." The nogro2s oro vagabondizing ill around thc oountry, somo with shot guns, jut mostly with muskets, which they buy of he merchants at three dollars a piece. Hogs, jigs and swine of every description have dis ippearod from thc face of that part of the jarth-as much as the mammoth and tho mc jalonyx. Milch cows, even, aro in daily danger jf their lives, and ero many months, our iu brmant predicts, cattlo will be as scarce up :here as hogs. Tho farmers in that part of tho State, he says, have barely corn enough to Inst ;hem till April, and wbero they aro to get thc meares to purcbasotho nocessary supplies after :hat period, he could uot seo. Such planfors ia have ongaged labor, have generally hired at i stipulated price, thc luboror to find his own subsistence. This, indeed, seems necessary, is tho farmer, in many cases, caunot command ?ho means to procure these supplies. NOHTHEBN CAPITALISTS COMLNO SOUTH-The ieprecintion in tho price of lands throughout lie South has induced a number of Northoru ?apitalists to invest in this specioa of proporty, ind much of tho planting during thc coming season will be conducted by Northern mon. The sea islands on tho coast present an allur ng field for such investments, and companies iave already been formed to cultivate theso .ich lands. Among other companies that aro jpoken of is ono to bo headed by Jamca Gordon Bennett, Jr. Mr. Bonnett is associated with some capitalists from Philadelphia, and designs JO plant on some of tho islands near thc city. The company aro prepared to try the planting experiment, and will purchaso most of their ?tock and farming materials iu this city, pre luming that the prices will be lower thnn at io North. UNITED STATES DISTEICT COURT.-JUDOE BBYAN PRESIDING.-On motion of Charles II. ?imonton, Esq., Harris Covington, Esq., and Mr. Johnson, both of Marlboro' District, S. C., vero admitted on Saturday to practice in tho United States Court for thc District of South Carolina. Those gentlemen afterwards pre? sented tho petition of Mr. A. E. Parham, of Marlboro', for voluntary bankrupt SJ. LECTUBES BEFORE THE CATHOLIC INSTITUTE. A large congregation filled the Cathedral Chapel last evening to hear the first of a course of lectures to be delivered before the Catbolic Institute. Vespers were first sung, after which Bishop Lynch gave an interesting discourse, cbosing for his subject: The Centennial Anni veraary of the Martyrdom of St. Peter and St. Paul at Rome, in which pageant the Bishop was a participant. Tho lecture was substan? tially the same which Bishop Lynch has de? livered in BoBton and elsewhere. BUSINESS NOTICES. H7~H.

Mr. Gonzalez has recently entered the auction business, and this is his first sale. The articles are well selected, and the sale will command attention. THOSE WHO HATE not supplied themselves for the winter with clothing and furnishing goods aro recommended to examine the stock of Messrs. Macullar, Wilhams & Parker, at No. 270 King-street, where may be found a stock of ready-made clothing, which, for style, workmanship and durability, is not equalled by any stock in the city. The prices, which aro a great consideration in these times, are lower than tho same quality of goods can be found oise whore. Don't fail to examine this stock before purchasing. A LOTTERY OFFICE.- Our readers who are disposed to take a chance at securing an easy fortune will learn something to their advant? age by reading the advertisement which ap? pears in our columns from Mr. H. T. Peters, who has opened an office at No. 90 Hasel-street for the disposal of tickets in some of the fairest and most equitable lottery eohemes in the country. ThiB gentleman, who believes that there are large numbers in every community who will, under every disadvantage, encourage this form ot' Bemiring a competency, has la? bored zealously to get our State to place tho business on a footing which would relievo the public of a certain amount of taxation by yielding a State revenue, and at the same time place the business in a position of much fair? ness; and the agencies which he has now se? cured he natters himself will give the people the best opportunity of drawing a prize. The principles on which the drawing will take place are set forth iu the advertisement, and such of the public as are anxious to try their fortune will undoubtedly be placed in the best position to secure a prize by applying to Mr. Peters ut his oifico as above. J. BREVE GIBBES' COSQIEBCIAL SCHOOL.-The ordinary maimer of importing instruction in the art uf book-kooping by double entry, is by a number and variety ot rules which, to a be? ginner, appear to be arbitrary and illogical, because tho teacher is too often deiicieut in amt demonstrative ability which easily refers conclusions to their premises, and can impress tho aequenco on tho minds of their pupils. This want of perspicuity, in illustrating the process by which a complicated system ia de? rived from a few simple principles of common sense, is tho causo of much contusion and ig? norance respecting an art which is capable ol' | being rendored as clear as light to tho most ordinary capacities. Wo take pleasure in rec? ommending Mr. Gibbes uej eminently qualified to pori'orin this important service. His thoroughly practical mind und long familiarity with commercial affairs, enable him to make proficiente in book-keeping in a remarkably (-hort space of timo, as numerous instances can testify, while his charges aie graduated with more roferouco to the present depressed con? dition of pecuniary affairs, than to the great vfiluo and utility of his instruction. All who aro in soarch of those practical branches of education, writing, arithmetic and book-keeping, should avail themselves of this opportunity to acquire them with certainty in a short timo, and at au exceedingly small out? lay. Wo call attention to Mr. Gibb os' card in this paper. A-A-A-A-A The beat Dyspeptic Bitters now in use are PANU? NI N'S Hepatic Bitters. They never fail to givo roller, try a bottle, and be convinced.
