WE ABE PLEASED to notice that Purser H. J.
Brookes of the steamship Champion has re?
turned to his position on that ship after some
absence. It affords us pleasure to say that
this gentleman is always attentive and courte?
ous, and makes it agreeable to all who have
intercourse with him.
FLEE ON ST. HELENA ISLAND.-The purser of
the steamer Fannie from Beaufort (S. C.), re
ports that the residence and store of Messrs,
Wilhams & Son, on St. Helena Island, was total?
ly destroyed by fire on Sunday night, the 12th
inst. Loss about $15.000, on which there is
very small insurance. Mr. W. and a negro
man, who were asleep at the time, barely es?
caped with their lives. No fire had been on
the premises all day, and it is thought to have
been the act of an incendiary.
DON'T ADVEBHSZ ; it is a very bad plan. It | 1
will call attention to your place of business,
and it is much better for people who wish to
trade with you to hunt you up. It gives your
customers exercise, and makes them healthy.
Besides, if you advertise, somebody will buy up
all of your goods, then you will have to get more,
and it win be a great bother to you. Don't do
it. Stewart, aud Ayer, and Bonner, and Barn es
and Hembold and others, never advertise.
They have an idea that it injures their busi?
ness.
DISTRICT COUBT.-HON. GEO. W. LOGAN,
PB ES HUNG.-The following cases were tried on
Saturday. The State vs. C. C. Shields and Bet?
sey Porcher-Assault and battery, Messrs.
Seymour and Porcher appeared for the defend?
ants. Verdict, not guilty as to the first. Guil?
ty as to the secoud.
The State vs. Eliza Jackson and Sarah Mus
tapher-Assault and battery. B.W. Seymour,
Esq., for the defence. Verdicts, guilty of as?
sault and battery, with recommendation to the
mercy of the Court, for Eliza Jackson. Guilty
of assault with the same recommendation for
Sarah Mustapher.
The State cs. Jack Calonal alias Jack Con?
nell-Assault and battery. Guilty.
The State vs. Mary Chisolm-Assault and
battery. Not guilty.
THE LAST SENSATION.-We keep our eye
upon "the reliable gentleman," and he need
not hope that in his peregrinations he can for
a moment elude our vigilance. We discern
unmistakable traces of his presenoe in Orange
burg. The Orangeburg News of Saturday,
after an editorial summary of the portentous
events and conflicting elements which make up
the present "crisis," adds:
"Meantime, we have heard, from a source
we consider reliable, that the telegraph omeo
in Charleston is under military control; and
this is rumored to be by order of the President
through General Grant."
We trust the good Orangeburgers aro suffi?
ciently appalled.
ANVrVEBSABY OF THE PHOENIX FlBE ENGINE
COMPANY.-Notwithstanding the inclemency of
the weather, there waB a full attendance of the
members of this company at their anniversary
meeting on Sa tia.lay night. The earlier por?
tion of the evening was devoted to business,
and the members met for this purpose at the
Market Hall, in Meeting-street. After the
usual preliminaries the company proceeded to
ballot for officers, with the following result:
?GEORGE TUPPER, President.
tP. G. HAZEL, Vice-president.
W. A. KELLY, First Director.
A. T. SMYTHE, Second Director.
8. WILEY, Third Director. .*
C. THENHOLU, Fourth Director.
R. 8. CATHCART, Treasurer.
HENRY SPARNICK, Secretary,
J. P. DE VEAUX, Engineer.
W. M. MUCKENFUsa, Solicitor.
R. LEBBY, i.r., Surgeon.
W. B. YATES, Chaplain.
?Vice W. E. Holmes, who declined re-election, and
also Vincent Milnor, who declined promotion,
t Vic? Vincent Milnor, who declined re-election.
After the election, the friends of Mr. Holmes,
through Mr. W. A. Kelly, presented him with
a fine gold-headed cane, the handle of which
was elaborately chased and ornamented. This
token of appreciation of his past services was
extremely grateful to Mr. Holmes, as bis with?
drawal was occasioned by unavoidable circum?
stances. For years he has been an active
member of the Phoenix, and, on his return
, from the army at the close of the war, he was
unanimously elected President. To his good
management the present prosperity of the
company is in a great measure duo. The now
ly elected Presiden t, Mr. George Tupper, has
been long identified with the organization, and
is likely to prove a worthy successor to cx-Prosi
dent Hohnes.
The business of the evening being accom?
plished, the company with their invited guests
.adjourned to the Masonic Hall, where " an up?
per chamber " had been furnished for the occa?
sion, by that experienced caterer, Tully.
Among the guests, were His Honor the Mayor,
the Chief of the Fire Department, several ot
the board, and a number of ex-members and
officers of the Phoenix. The bountiful collation
was attacked and speedily vanquished, and the
substantials being removed, tho table was
cleared, and the glasses being charged, tho
President announced the regular toasts. "Tho
day we celebrate," M the City," " the State,"
and " tho Press," were severally honored and
elicited appropriate responses. A nunibor of
impromptu sentimente and songs followed,
that kept the wit sparkling, and the wine circu?
lating until a late hour, when Joined hands and
Auld Lang Syne closed the entertainment.
CouBT OF GENERAL SESSIONS .IND COMMO:
PLEAS-HON. P. J. MOSES PEHUDINO.-Tin
court mot at 10 A. M., and the juries beini
present, the prisoners indicted on tho previous
day were arraigned. In the cane of Georg?
Duffie, charged with murder, his counsel, Bob
ert Chisolm, Esq., objected to his client plead
ing, on the ground that the grand jury wai
drawn illegally in not being composed of whit?
tax-paying citizens, compotent ~/o vote for t
legislature. The Judge overruled this obj ec
tion, when Mr. ChiBolm stated that he wonk
resume his objection to the tctit jury an?
challenge the panel when the eas 3 came up 01
Friday.
A number of civil motions were argued,
which consumed the time of ti e court unt?
12 o'clock, when the Rrand jury made the fol?
lowing presentment, which w- - read by th?
foreman, Mr. John Hanckel :
COUBT OF GE.SE.Ui SESSIONS AND COMMO*
PLEAS-CHARLESTON DISTRICT-J? NUABY TEEM,
1868.
We, who have been summonei. and desig?
nated as grand jurors, and actinir by compul?
sion as such, but solemnly protec ting and de?
claring that we are no lawful grand jury of the
country, do make this our presentment.
We present the organization A thi* grand
jury as unlawful. There are persons sitting
with us as grand jurors who are not here by
tho law of the State of South Carolina, or by
any law emanating from any cou? titutional au?
thority. In making this declaration we cheer?
fully bear witness to the good character and
upright conduct of these two highly respecta?
ble persons. We are glad that we can make
this our declaration and protest-, without, in
any way, impugning the character or wound?
ing the feelings of these particular individuals.
But the power to place these p< rsons in this
position implies the power to p?a se more of the
same class there. It implies the power to
place those there who do not possess the same
qualifications. Above all it implies the power
to deprive the constitutional State of South
Carolina of the right to decide rho are quali?
fied to administer her laws in Tier courts of
justice. Against this power we solemnly pro?
test.
Our organization being thus unlawful, we
have nevertheless thought it our* duty to con?
sider the indictments which have been given
out to us, and to find true bills o i some indict?
ments for capital offences against certain
persons whom we have preserved for trial.
We havo done so because when such persons
have been indicted we have denired to throw
around them all the safeguards and protection
in our power as citizens; but we do solemnly
protest and declaro that, if such persons are to
be tried and executed, they will be i ried and
executed without the presentment of a lawful
grand jury, and, therefore, without warrant of
law, and that those who execute them will do
so on their own individual responsibility, and
al their own personal risk, and that they will,
in our judgment, be guilty of tho crime of put?
ting to death citizens without wi rr ant of law.
Wo desire to bring to tho attention of the
court that taxes are about to be levied on the
citizens of this State without sanction of law.
and in violation of the great fundamental
principle of Anglo-Saxon and American liberty,
which declares that the people Mone have the
right to tax themselves through representa?
tives chosen by themselves, and that taxation
without representation is usurpation and
tyranny. Against tho exercise of such a power
ive do further protest.
We aro pained to learn by the charge of His
Eonor, the presiding Judge, that by au acci
lontal error in the language of the present
aw, as interpreted by the Court of Appeals of
his State, white citizens cannot be tried in the
superior Courts of this State for offences not
?apital, but such offences of such white citizens
nust be tried in tho Inferior Court, without
he presentment of a grand jury and without
k jury of twelve men, while nogroes can be
ried in such Superior Courts w th all tho safe
ruards they afford. The rightii of our white
ellow-citizens imperatively demand that this
iccidcutal error of legislation should be reme
lied.
We have given to the condition of the poor of
his district the grave consideration which the
mportance of the subject demands. The
legree and extent of the destitution whioh ex
sts amongst us, cannot be und srstood abroad,
md is scarcely realized by ourselves. Our
:ountry devastated, our people plundered, our
udustry disorganized, wo were left at the close
if the Late war, to encounter difficulties which
rere almost insuperable. To this has been
dded unpropitious seasons foi our crops and
he insecurity of revolutionary agitation and
itrife in our society. This oom litton of things
tas reduced thousands of all classes to a state
if poverty that is truly wrote hoi and seriously
laming. Something ought ai id must be do ih
o re'ieve these suffering poor. So great and
mi versal is the poverty and want of our whole
>eople that we fear tho resourcss of the State
.re inadequate to provide for tie necessity.
We earnestly hope, however, that no effort
rill be spared, to feed the hung ry, to clothe the
laked and shelter the homelets of every class
ace and color, who are deser nng of aid and
innot help themselves. It in a duty which
tumanity and our highest interest alike appeal
o us to discharge. But while we say this, we
incerely trust, that those who are strong and
leal thy and able to work will he expected and
empelled to support and care Tor the aged, the
oung and the sick relatives, to whom they aro
lound by the ties of nature, and whom rehgioD
md society equally expect them to provide for.
? they will not do BO voluntarily, parents must
^compelled to support their children, robust
ions must bo made to take dae care of their
iged parents, and in general those who can
mist be expected to supply tho necessities
>f others, whom sickness, misfortune, tho obli?
gations of natural affection, and the laws of
ill social fife havo cast moon the bounty, which
hey owe as a duty. This hi the rule which
n all civilized countries, regulates the dispen?
sation of all private charities, and the adminis?
tration of all public relief. It is the only rule
toy which they can avoid lllling a country
with a promiscuous horde of paupers,
it is tho only way, especially in the
present impoverished condition of tho State,
tn which we can hope to make tho scanty
means of public relief adequate to the legiti?
mate objects proposed. We again earnestly
recommend that some method should be de
rised, under wholesome regulations, by which
the really deserving, but unfortunate and
iffiicted, shall be relieved.
The insecurity of tho bro stock of the coun?
try i3 an evil that should be remedied. If the
iepredations upon them continue to tho same
?tent as of late, our portion of the State will
bc entirely deprived of this source of profit
md subsistence-indeed, to s great extent, it
is now so, and we must dopend upon other
sources for furnishing that which can be raised
unong8t us, at little cost a:od to groat} profit,
S properly protected.
We have visited the publi j buildings. The
;ourthouse requires some ? mall cutlay in re
oairing the windows in tho room of the Court
of Appeals, and stopping a few leaks in the
.oof. A stovo in oach of the rooms provided
br juries would contribute *ery much to their
:omfort.
We found the jail in a cleanly condition,
ind the welfare of the prisoners cared
br, their food to be ample and prop
irly prepared, and due rogard seemed to
oe had to their safekeeping. We would,
?owever, suggest a few addil ional precautions,
Thich it appeared to the jury might be adopted
st Little cost. The b'ghtning rod on the north
last of the building is broken; we recommend
ts repair at once, and that it be so secured to
he wall as to preclude th(' possibility of its
>eing used as a means of escape. It occurred
0 the jury that the four vindowa adjoining
he northern wall, and opening in the yard,
night be used as a means cf scaling the wall;
f these were bricked up no such use of them
Kould bo made; and we were informed by the
Sheriff that these windows could be dispensed .
nth without discomfort to :he inmates of the
ail. Several windows of the city hospital
iverlook tho yard of the jail, which might af- :
ord facilities of escape; this could be remedied
ov increasing the height of the wall so as to ,
nock up these windows. Pumps should be
olaced in all the cisterns connected with the '
ail, and the cisterns kept in perfect order,
mly one being now in good condition, and that ?
vit bout a pump. We were rieasod with the ar
rangements reoently maa o by the present
sherill' to koop the male and fom ale prisoners in .
leparate apartments; but we regret tha t perBons i
letained as witnesses, and those who may be .
m prisoned for trivial offences, are brought in
;ontact with the vicious aid depraved infla- '
mes of those guilty or heinous crimes; such ]
oersons, too, we find, have the sam s coarse i
'are and rude accommoditions which are pro?
vided for criminals. We or ? informed that the '
Sheriff has neither the means or authority to I
iorrect this. We, however, felt it our duty to ]
nention and lament it. Tt e case of one of the
orisoners seemed to require Borne atlention
1 widow named Mrs. Mary Kennedy, of Wi!- ?
iamsburg District, has teen imprisoned in i
his jail since 3d November last in it caso of ,
xovcr. We are informed by tho Sheriff that
1er case was tried and pt.ssed upon in Wil- 1
iamsburg DiBtrict while ate was boro in jail,
ind thus deprived of the opportunity of ma- ,
ung her defence. Whilst we cannot bo fully in- ,
formed of the circumstances of this caBe,
vhioh bas originated and Leen tried ia another I
district, we de9m it proper to bring: the mat?
ter to the attention ot the court.
The roads leading out of Charleston are in
bad condition. Those from Line-Btreet to the city
boundary are under the control of the city au?
thorities, and should receive immediate atten?
tion. That portion above the city boundary is
under the control of the Commissioners of |
Main Roads. From the report submitted to us
we find the co m ru ie sion? ra had in their hands
a balance of$8,621.09 on the 15th November
last; we hope, therefore, that those funds are
being applied to this much needed repair
of the great highways leading to our city. It is
to be regretted that the jurisdiction of the
commissioners should cease at the city boun?
dary as the portion below this boundary needs
the repairs as much as that above, and both
equally necessary; we fear the financial cond;
tion of the city treasury will prevent the lower
portion receiving the same prompt action.
. In making the foregoing presentment of
matters which sall for the interposition of ]
legislative action, we are painfully reminded
that th er 3 is DJ constitutional authority exist?
ing at this time in our State which has the
power to afford tho necessary relief. The lives,
the liberty, aud the property of our citizens
are absolutely subject to the will of a military
despot, who has not been chosen by the peo?
ple bf the State, to govern na; who has not
been elected by any portion of the American
people to govern us, and who is not appointed
to govern us by any constitutional authority
whatever, but who is a mere soldier, appointed
to command a division of the standing army
(if the country; under these circumstances, we
do not know to whom we are ta appeal for re?
lief.
In response to so much of the charge of his
Honor the presiding Judge as counsels submis?
sion to the existing military power, we beg leave
to say that the people of this Slate have not re?
sisted, and do not resist, and have no purpose to
resist that power, believing that such resistance
would be attended with greater evils than quiet
submission. But they solemnly protest against
this tyranny, and earnestly appeal to our fel?
low-citizens of tho Northern States, who can
do BO by their votes, to restore us at tho ear?
liest practicable time to the protection and the
liberty of law.
JOHN HANCKEL, Foreman.
In concluding, Mr. Hanckel stated that there
were members of the grand jury who objeoted
to certain passages in the presentment, and
wished to make a minority report. Richard
Holloway (colored), for himself and Jack Wil?
son (also colored), then read the following
dissent :
We respectfully dissent from so much of the
presentment of the grand jury as refers to the
illegality of the drawing and summoning of
that body by reason of its including colored
persons on it. * RICHARD HOLLOWAY.
JACK WIL80N.
Alter receiving the presentment of the grand
jury the Judge thanked them for the careful
and diligent manner in which they had dis?
charged the duties imposed upon them. Their
presentment, he said, was full, and every point
had evidently been prepared with great de?
liberation ; but in one respect he thought they
had erred. They stated that they did not con?
sider themselves a legally constituted grand
jury, and yet they had performed, under pro?
test, the duties required of such bodies. It
would have been far better for those parties
who considered that they were illegally drawn
bo have made an issac at that time, and not
have entered upon the duties at all. If that
course had been adopted the case could have
been argued and carried up to the Superior
Courts, and decided by competent authority.
As it was, the matter still remained undecided,
md the same point might be raised at some
'uture day. The Judge then discharged tho
rrand jury, and directed that their certificates
se made out. The court was then adjourned
x> Monday morning, at 10 A. M. | .
FAREWELL BEBKON OF THE REV. Lucros | 1
D?THBEBT, PASTOS OF THE CITADEL SQUABS
BAPTIBT CHUBCH.-At a recent meeting of the
ifficors of the Citadel Square Church, tho
'csignation of their pastor, the Rev. Lucius
Juthbert, was accepted. Mr. Cuthbert's health
iau been somewhat impaired, rendering
esidence in Aiken necessary during the great- I f
tr part of the past year, and, apprehensive that | S
lis temporary absence might affect the wel
are of the church, he resolved to tender his
'esignatiou. His farewell sermon was preached 1
reBterday morning to a very large assemblage, c
tomprising many friends outside of his con- r
pregation, who knew his merits and regrettod ?
he occasion of his withdrawal. Choosing for his '1
?xt a portion of the lourth verse, seventeenth ?
ihaptor of John-"I have finished tho work
vhich thou gavest me to do"-he delivered an
mpressive discourse ou the duties of a minis
.er, briefly alluding to the circumstances con- f
meted with bis resignation, and concluded by I
idvieing his flock to remain united, trusting C
.hat some spiritual pastor would be found who t
vould prove acceptable and would promoto I
heir advancement both temporally and spirit- ?
lally.
Mr. Cuthbert baa not accepted a call from
mother church, but will for a time recuperate
lis energies in the healthy climate of Aiken.
Though no successor has been definitely se?
lected, the officers of the Citadel Square Church
tiavo extended a coll to a distinguished Baptist
iiviue of a neighboring State If this invita?
tion should be accepted the church will possess
1 paBtor whose reputation and power as a pul?
pit orator is unsurpassed in the South.

AN EYE TO THE MAIN CHANCE.-In the vi?
cinity of the Club House there are several
fruit, candy and peanut stands, recently
ereoted by enterprising colored individuals,
whether for the use of the convention or for
the numerous crowd of idle loungers that daily
congregate around the premises, we have not
learned. A notable feature of these out-door
restaurants is a soda water stand, which, we
should suppose, cannot ho in great demand
with the thermometer at forty to fifty Fahren?
heit-the ruling figures last week.
EOBBEBY.-John Gordon, a colored railroad
hand, who, unfortunately kept his money in
his pocket, fell asleep at his camp ground
about Bixty miles from/ town, but found to his
sorrow that he had also fallen among thieves.
When he awoke he discovored that $22 in
greenbacks had been abstracted, and he was
bankrupt. Like a sensible darkey he imme?
diately reported the frets to the detective of?
fice, and officer Meyer being detailed to the
search, soon arrested Charles Edwards, a col?
ored youth, who confessed the deed, and the
greater portion of the money was recovered.
MISHAP.-The steamer Dictator, from Palat
ka via Savannah, arrived here on Sunday
night. After dark, on corning into her berth,
Bhe struck the joiners* work, between the for?
ward gangway and the wheelhouse, on the lar?
board side, against the corner of the wharf,
making a clean sweep of the kitchen and other
compartments in that vicinity, and producing
eoroe consternation onboard, as well as on the
pier, where the large number of hacks which
were collected made it quite a scene of danger
for some time, the horses starting off and run?
ning a good chance of getting overboard. For?
tunately no one on the steamer was burt, al?
though there was quite a smash-up, the decks
ind a part of the wharf being covered with
the debris._
OPENING OP A NEW RESTATJBANT.-For some
timo past the work of renovation has been
in progress at the budding No. 67 Meeting
street, between the Mills House and Hibernian
Hall. There have been a number of surmises
IB to ita future destination, but they were not
satisfactorily explained until Saturday morn?
ing, when "the injunction of secrecy was re?
moved," and the doors thrown open. The
building has been taken by Mr. Dayton, who
has opened it as a restaurant on the European
plan, where meals can be procured at any
imo. The interior has been remodelled and
?iraishod with the latest improvements, and
3ears.some resemblance to the old Milla House
Dar-room. In the anteroom the guests are sup?
plied with ehoice drinks, prepared in the most
ipproved style.

RODUNDA ISLAND GUANO.
A Pare, Unmixed, .Vatoral Guano, as
Fine as Flour (although not Ground ,
Jost in the Condition in which lt ls
Imported from the Island.
fflHIS GUANO IS FROM A RECENTLY DIS
JL COVERED deposit on Rodunda Island, In tho
C&rriboan Sea, West Indies, latitude 16 degrees 56
minutes north, longitude 62 degrees 23 minutes
weist.
It bas been used for many year? in th/ Wait India
Islands in the cultivation of Sugar Cane and cereals
with great success; was introduced for the first time
to the farmers aud planters of thu United Statee in
the spring of 1666, and has met wi.h unprecedented
success, as tho subjoined reports and testimonials tul?
ly corroborate.
The RODUNDA GUANO is not a mineral phos?
phate, requirng the action of the Sulphuric Acid ?0
render lt soluble; its great power ss a fertilizer ls in
ita entire solubility, without the aid of acid, lt is
not a "manipulation" or Compound of r lah or Flesh
with Mineral Phosphates, the regularity of which ls
always nnc> rtaln and dependent upon, and controll?
ed by thc honesty of the manufacturer. The RO?
DUNDA is a PURE NATURAL GUANO (thai term
being understood tornean the excrement of fish-eat?
ing birds), as the large per contago of organic mat?
ter sufllciently attests, and as found upon the Island
of Rodunda, in the very state as Imported and sold
to consumers.
I he regularity and uniformity of the fineness and
condition of the various cargoes already imported by
us into tho United States, tested by the analysis of
the most eminent Chemists of this country and Eu?
rope, ls sufficient proof of its origin and a guaran ce
of our ability to Jundah this G'uwo of the quality
and purity represented.
Tho PHICE of the uODUNDA GUANO ia not the
least unimportant in these days of agricultural com?
petition and pecuniary embarrassment.
Tho very tow price at which it can be sold places it
within the reach of every farmer, aud avoids tho risk
of largo loss frequently incurred by foi. 1 u 's ol' the
crops ia tbepurchaie of high priced fortiiizti...
lu the preparation of lands for Wheat and other
cereals this Guano poetesses properties that reuder
it more desirable for these crops than any yet offered
to the public.
Pamphlets containing the analysis and experi?
ments mado b v the most prominent Chemists of this
country and in Europe, tORether with innumerable
certificates of its entire success irom farmers and
planters, can be obtaiued at our Office, to whioh we
