AN ODTBAOEOOS FABRICATION.-A communi? cation in the New York Tribuno makes an ap? peal for a Mrs. Frey, now destitute in that city, and who is now playing the rote of a martyr to the barbarous conduct of the people of Charles? ton. It is claimed that she was a good Samari? tan towards Union prisoners during the war, on which account, according to the Tribune writer "She was stoned through the streets of Charleston, her Ute daily threatened, her prop? erty destroyed, her home burned, her family scattered, and finally banished from tho city. The little personal effects saved from the wreck of their fortune are now in one of our pawn? shops. This is her record." We have heard something before of the good deeds ascribed to Mrs. Frey, and likewise of the systematic manner in which she has con? trived to have them trumpeted in public; but if she has authorized the statement we have quoted, whatever may be thought of her chari? ty, the less said about her veracity the better. jf COTJBT or APPEALS-CHIEF JUSTICE DUNKIN AND ASSOCIATES PRESIDING.-Mr. McCrady con? cluded his argument in the case of Enston vs. Mixer.

MOSES PRESIDING.-The ( grand jury answered to their names, and the following bills handed to them by the Judge, j1 -X which were returned as follows : True bills in J the cases of the State vs. Peter Johnson, mm- 1 der; George Duffie, murder; Benjamin Ville- 1 ponteaux and Benj. Hagen, arson; Ed. Small, ' attempt to commit a rape. The District Attorney presented a motion ' that Jno. Jenkins, a colored prisoner, now in jail, be brought to the bar of the court and re sentenced for murder. His reasons were that ? the said Jenkins had been tried and found guilty of killing Mr. Brentford, in Tradd- 1 street, last year. An appeal was taken, which ' was not sustained by the Court of Appeals, ' and the sentence of the lower court was order? ed to be carried into effect. The military, nu? der General Sickles' administration, had this matter under consideration, but General Can- 1 by, among his first proclamations, stated that there were no reasons for delay, and the law must take its course. Mr. T. G. Barker, coun? sel for the prisoner, objected to the order of the Attorney-General, and stated that if the execution was carried out he would indict the acting sheriff for murder, as he was not an of? ficer of South Carolina. After some argument it waa decided to continue the case to Mon? day, when the motion would be argued at length. The commission of the acting sheriff and his deputies was read in open court, and ordered to be recorded. . Several prisoners were arraigned, counsel assigned, and the court then adjourned. UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT, HON. GEO. S. BRYAN PRESIDING-_In re Wm. J. Bower, ot i York, Petition for Voluntary Bankruptcy.-On i motion of T. W. Clawson, solicitor for the pe- ; titioner, an order of reference to W. J. Claw- i BOD, Register ot the Fourth Congressional Dis- i trict, was signed.

THE ADGEB BUILDING- BILLIARD SALOON, beyond all question, ia the finest our city has ever known. It is large, airy, hmdsome and commodious ; has about a dozen of the best billiard tables that can be procure d anywhere. Tbe bar is furnished with the choicest bibibles -whether of Lager, Monongahela, Geneva, Curacoa, Cliqnot or Green Seal, (?hatean Mar? got or Rudesheimer. The connoisseur will do well to visit this well-appointed establishment. THE STAMP QUESTION.-The lat? raid made upon the retail dealers by the "so-called" Unit? ed States detectives has admonish sd that class to be on their guard, and to ? ec ure their stamps by some more adhesive material than government gum. The drugs, perfumery, jel? lies, pickles and sardines which have hereto? fore refused to keep their stamps, are now doctored with strong home-made mucillage that is warranted to stick, and wi ich will defy a removal by any detective. Heretofore a number of persons have presumed that import? ed articles were exempt from this taxation, and have neglected to affix tbe necessary stamps. The Internal Revenue acts require stamps to be affixed on a large nm aber of man? ufactured articles, all enumerated in "schedule C" of the act, and published som? weeks ago in THE NEWS for the information of the pub? lic. Many of our people are ignsrant of the numerous provisions of the law, and may have failed to comply with it. This is especially the case with imported articles, such as Lubina' extracts and powder, German cologne, sardine boxes, West India jellies, etc., which have gen? erally been the articles alleged by the detec? tives to have been without stamps. A SAD PIOTUBE.-The laBt inane of the "Charlestoner Zeitung" contains sn interesting letter of a correspondent from Beaufort, S. C., depicting the sad condition of that once pros? perous town and ita good people. He says : I "I know gray-headed men here who work in t cotton factories, attend more punctually and 1 work more hours than the colored gentlemen citizens about here, and yet barely succoed in earning more for their families thi n the where? withal to buy hominy and bacon. Widows and their daughters perform work of which they I * formerly know nothing, and they have trouble i to get even this. The distress is great, and there is none to help. Succor m ru it come either from government, or from tho benevolent abroad. But there are cases where people j could help themselves, if they wo old set about { it with energy, and had not lost all self-confi? dence. Many a one is doubtless attached to bis home. But what is home un 1er such ciad ^ circumstances ? Would they not do better to Leave ? By way of example I recently spoke to 1 a citizen of this place (a man in his best years) ^ about our German immigrants, for the most ^ part poor, who come to this country, with j scarcely any means for the support of not un frequently a numerous family. Sometimes they bring nothing but their tr?nke. Unac? quainted with the language, anc in fact with everything relating to the Duiiiness of the country, they often come here, finding no rela? tive or friend even to aid them along; and not-. ( withstanding ali these obstados they soon reach a very tolerable position. Upon which ny interlocutor remarked : 'Auel I know :he nost of these people get rich I' I then asked c lim-'Why don't you go and dD the same?' ' Bis reply was, 'I am not used to work 1' At east a candid answer." ' I HISTOBT OF THE YELVEBTON CASE.-We un- f lerstand that wo are to have the pleasure of t searing Hrs. Yelverton read, aid as a gieat t leal of interest has be CD excited in her case, \ both in England and America, we give a short ] account of the celebrated trial in whioh she \ bore a part so painfully prominent. j. Mrs. Yelverton has gone throu jh trials that c would have broken down most wemen. Des art- 1 ed by her husband, sho found her marriage \ disputed, and her honor maligned. She was \ an orphan, thc members of her family scatter- c ed in distant lands, she having been brought a ap by a French aunt, the Countess de Boisuey. Thus sbe was left alone to contest her case through all the intricacies wh ch character? ize the British marriage law. She has car? ried on the case for seven years, sacrificing the best part of her fife and her fortune, and has used her great tale its to secure to herself a name free from all accusa? tions of dishonor. By hor pertinacity, she has awakened tho English mind to the in? justice of their marriage laws, a ad a reform is now in progress. She obtained in Ireland a recognition of ber marital rights, from a full court of eight English Judges. Not satisfied with this, and although married in a church in Ireland, her husband endeavored, by some old, unrepeated Scotch law, to obtain his ob? ject, by denying that she was hu wife, and. en? deavored to effect her imprisonment for as? serting her marriage. This action, called Putting to Silence." is almost obsolete, and imposes a fine of ?1000 sterling as solatium to che husband, and a penalty of ?50 for every time the lady shall assert her marriage or call herself by her husband's name. The Scotch Court decided in her favor and proclaimed her tobe the lawful wife of the Hon. Major Yelver? ton. From this decision he appeal ad to the House of Lords, who, by a majority ol one, reversed the decision of the Scotch court, but left the Irish untouched. Mrs. Yelverton next applied to have Major Yelverton put upon his oath, when it would have been imposiiibl? for him to j ^ deny his Scotch marriage. On this question Mrs. Yelverton appeared before the House of ] Peera, in Westminster Hall, and delivered tho first plea ever made before that august body by a lady. She spoke for four days, but the House of Lords, on account of Major Yelver? ton being an heir to the Peerage, the eon ot Viscount Avrnrr.ore, and because Major Yel? verton had since married again, declined mak? ing any order by which he would bc compelled to answer to the charge of bigamy. By this decision the House of Lords admitted the er? ror ot their previous judgment and refused to make it right. * Thus ended ene of the most famous cases under the British divorce law, and by it Mrs. Yelverton was donied her rights by the highest power in Britain. She has the respect and sympathy of all. AT THE RECENT MEETING of the Board of Fi rema 3 tera, George Lamb Buist, Esq., was unanimously elected Chairnan of the Board, vice B. S. Duryea, Esq., resigned. FTBE,-Somo excitement was created yester? day morning by the burning of a chimney in Kirkland's lane. It was feared that the dames would be communicated to the bu?ding and the range of wooden shanties be consumed, but before the arrival of the engines the fire was extinguished.

EXTRA MEETING OF THE Cm COUNCIL-CON? SIDERATION OF Tm: TAX BILL.-Present-His Honor the Mayor, Aldermen Bavenel, Small, O'Neill, Gerdts, Steinmeyer, Olney, Oakes, Honour, Marshall, Butler, Parker, Courtenay md Pringle. The Mayor stated that Council would pro seed at once to the discussion of the till, and it was taken up on its second reading by ?lauses, the first being adopted and the second being called. Alderman Marshall's amend? ment was taken up and he explained his rea? sons for substituting a tax on stock in trade Instead of on Bales. Ho considered tho latter illegal and unjust and could be contested suc ;os8fully if the merchants were so disposed. By making this amount returnable by the 1st if April, as stocks were then full, and a larger imount could be obtained for the city. Alderman Ravenel, in reply, said that the tax on sales is enforced by the State, and has lever been resisted. This was no time for ex? periments. Ia '57, whon stocks were taxed, me amount received was far short of that now realized from the tax on sales. After some discussion, it was moved that the consideration of the ninth and tenth lines, which referred to this matter, be postponed ; n til the opinion of the City Attorney be ob ;iined. Adopted. It was then moved that the consideration of .he bill be postponed until Tuesday evening, i Ldopted. 3 Alderman Olney offered the following r?solu- ( ion: That a now committee of five, of which ;be Mayor shall be one, be added to the stand? off committees, to be styled a Committee on < 'issessments. The duties of that committee ?0 be to havo a general supervision over all issessments ot real estate, or otherwise, mado jj the assessors, to whom all complaints of ? iver assessment shall be referred, the decision >f the majority of the committee with the as lessors to be final. The Committee on Lighting tho City pre- - lented a report on bills for December, amount ng to $230,100, which was adopted, and Conn :il then adjourned. A Cantton.
