ING IN THE PGSTOFFICE AT THE END OF EACH WEEK, ACCORDING TO THE PROVIS IONS OF THE NEW POSTOFFICE LAW. LOCAL MATTERS. -V . OUR CITY SUBSCBXBEBS W>.

RESIGNATION OF CHAPLAIN FRENCH_The Washington Star says: "Rev. Mr. French, Su? pervisor of Missions and Marriage Relations of the freedmen in South Carolina, under General R. K. Scott, has resigned his position, and the resignation has been accepted by General Howard." Chaplain French ia now in Wash? ington._ V 'THE GLOBIES OF MART" is the title of a neat duodecimo volume, consisting of selec? tions from the writings of St. Bernard, trans? lated from the original Latin, and published under the sanction of Archbishop Cullen, Pri? mate of Ireland. A few copioa are on sale at the publicationjoffice of "The Gazette," King street, between Wentworth and Liberty. UNMAILABLE LETTEBS.-Ihe following letters are held in the Charleston Postoffice on account of not being stamped or for other causes: L. Cohen & Co., Graham's X Roads, not st imp? ed; J. Darite, Montooello, not stamped; W. A. Hi?ns, White Hall, S. C., not stamped; Thos. B. Leach, Bamburg, S. C., illegal stamp; E. A. Rodgers, Boston, Mass., not stamped; Emly Reel, Pond Crick, Indiana, not Btamped; John Quails, Cam len, S. C., illegal stamp. AN INCIDENT worthy of notice (says the Ga? zette) occurred at our improvised theatre during the performance of Kathleen Mavour? neen. When "Terence O'Moore" throws off his red coat and Bays: "A British uniform never fitted the back of an Irishman, anyhow;" an honest Hibernian in the audience was so well pleased with his boldness that he shouted, "WeU done ! that's right, me lad," an outburst which caused many to smile. ADVANTAGES OF CHABXP?TON.- that spright? ly paper, the Greenville Enterprise says : "We have frequently taken occasion to recommend the Charleston trade and business of our own railroads, in preference to wagoning to Augus? ta. We rejoic J to see that our good old city is regaining its ancient patronage, to the mutual benefit of merchants, railroads and planters; and that cotton continues to bear a higher prise in that city than in Augusta, of the average cent on the pound." NCBTHEBN ACCOUNTS FROM: THE SECOND MILI? TARY DISTRICT.-The Washington correspon? dent of the New York Times says : "Advices from tho Carolinas state that General Canby's administration is giving great satisfaction to the Unionists of the Second District m North Carolina, particularly where they are about ready for the constitutional election. They feel satisfied that under his judicious regula? tions apprehensions of a repetition of the Ala? bama fizzle are groundless." ACCIDENT ON THE STREET RAJXWA?.-Yester? day, as conductor Tupper's car was coming from the battery, the horses slipped and fell on the stone pavement, at the intersection of Broad and Meeting streets. The few passen? gers immediately alighted and assisted in ex? tricating the horses, who were tied up iu the harness. The convention had just adjourned, and a crowd was soon collected, several mem? bers tendering their eervicea to raise the horses. This was soon accomplished, and the car proceeded in double quick time to its des? tination. No one was huit, though several had a scare._ BISHOP P?RSICO IN EDGETIELD.-The Edge field Advertiser says : "This prelate of the Roman Catholic Church, who held divine services in our town cn Sun? day last, will, we are glad to announce, preach in Edgcfiold on the third Sunday of every month. Bishop P?rsico ia a man of the widest travel, of vast and wonderful experience, and of great ?earning. On Sunday last his church was densely crowded with earnest listeners; and his discourse upon "Evidences of Chris? tianity," was able and interesting. He preach? ed, most faithfully, Christ the Foundation Stone; and no individual, let him I c of what? ever creed he may, could have taken exception to a single word or thought." A ROBBER SHOT.-Mr. John Freehan, who lives at the east end of Reid-etreet, has for some time suffered from the depredations of certain parties who made love to his com and poultry. Mr. Freehan determined to stop all further proceedings, and stationed a young mau in the stable, with directions to shoot the thief when he entered. About three o'clock the scamp appeared and was greeted with tho discharge from a double-barrelled gun. Chase was at once given, and, from t he bloody tracks, the thief was traced to the marsh, where he succeeded in eluding his pursuers. A number of our citizens have beeo recently robbed of their property by these midnight thieves, and they will find a good load of buckshot, well di? rected, to bo tho moat speedy and effectual remedy. DUST.-Yesterday was generally voted as the moat windy and disagreeable day of this year. Clouds of dust that blinded the eyes and filled the nose and mouth were swept through the streets, and every object became of the earth earthy. Crinoline waB treated in a most disre pectful manner, and the fair owner , finding that they were unable io cope with the adver? sary, wisely fled from the wrath lo come. Broad and Meeting streets became miniature Saharas. The numerous tubo wells that have been sunk along the former street were not made available, and the visitors to our Rialto were compelled to grin and bear the dusty nuisanoe. To"* ards night the clouds that ob? scured the sky gave some promise of relief, but the dust was in the ascendant, and the clerk of the weather evidently indifferent to the pub? lic cry for relief. WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY.-To-day is the an? niversary cf the birth of the Father of bis Country, and if he were living now he would be one hundred and thirty-six years old. He was born in Westmoreland Couuty, Virginia, on the 22d of February, 1732. Bofore the war the anniversary was usually celebrated by the various military and civil or? ganizations in the city. The Washington Light Infantry, Artillery and the fire compa? nies observed the day by military parades and balls. Flags were raised and the garrisons in the harbor fired the national salute. The war, alas, has changed many of our old customs, and the day is no longer celebrated with the same spirit as in the pasL The different asso? ciations whose anniversaries fall on the22d will have a quiet reunion, but there will be no public demonstrations. Co?BT OF EQUITY, CHANCELLOR CABBOLL PRESIDING-Erlings ads. Whaley. W. E. Mi ke'l, Esq., for complainant, C. H. Simonton, Esq., f>r defendant. The cause came np on the report of the Master, and exceptions there? to. The Chancellor reserved his decision. UNITED STATES COURT, HON. GEORGE S. BRYAN PRESIDING.-Tho court was opened at the usual hour, and the case of Bittenhouse, Fant & Co. vs. Louis Kreuder was resumed. Mr. Wilkinson continued his argument. On motion of C. H. Simonton, Mr. Thomson H. Cooke, of Orangeburg, was admitted to practice in the United State Courts. MAYOR'S COURT.-This ancient tribunal was opened yesterday moroing by the niilitary Mayor, General Burns, who was introduced to his new sphere of action by Captain Sigwald, and was welcomed by ti e officers of the police force, who wore present. Naturally enough, General Bums commenced his administration hy "turning over a new leaf," and a new book which had been furnished for the lower wards docket, was used by him for the first time. He expressed himself as much pleased with the orderly condition of the city, and said that the fewnees of the arrests reported, showed a gratifying state of public morals, which he would endeavor to preserve. Susan Hudson, an old habitue of this court, was the first to pay her respects to tba new Mayor; but the cold reception she met soon convinced her that tears were wasted. She was told to go, but warned that if again arrested she would be sout out of the city. Susan pro? mised muchly, and departed. Dennis Harrington, who followed tho sea for a profession, became half-seas-over, and was drifted by the force of circumstances into the safe harbor of the guardhouse. He was peni? tent, but the judge was inexorable, and a fine of $5 was recorded. A proprietor ot a hotel, who was arrested for having .-lops thrown from an upper window, was charged five dollars .'or the performance, and told to take it out of the boar?-biL' of his lodger. No other cases being presented the court ad? journed. General Burns will soon visit the different municipal departments for tho pur? pose of making himself conversant with the workings of tho city government. THE LAST OF AN OLD CHARLESTON SHIP.-The following para ph, which we clip from a Northern jourual, gives us the information that the old sloop-of-war John Adams, after passing through a service of near seventy years, has finally ended as all things oarthly will. The point of interest to our readers is the fact that the John Adams was the only ves? sel of war of so large a capacity ever built at this port. If we have been correctly informed she was constructed at what was known as the Old Ship-yard, three miles above the city, on Cooper River, in 1799, the work being superin? tended by Mr. Paul Pritchard, Sr., and Mr. James Marsh, the father of our present fellow citizen. By ber long service and durability she has given an evidence of the faithful work which was placed on her. The following is the extract : "The finishing strokes in breaking up the old sloop-of-war John Adams are taking place on the matine railway in Fairhaven, Mass. She was purchased from the govern? ment for $10,000, and it has cost $4000 to tear her to pieces, but her present owners will get enough old copper and iron from her, with many pood piece* of live oak timber, to give theai a profit. Her keol is as good to-day aa when she was built, fifty years ago or more. Some of the copper bolts passing through her stern dead-wood were over ten feet long." NOTICES TN BANKHUPTC?.-Meetings of the creditors of tho under meutioned bankrupts, to prove debts and choose assignees, will bo held at the office of tho Registrar, Hon. R. B.

Bish? op Lynch, D.D., has adopted (save a slight change in tho sixth section) those of the arch diocoss of Baltimore. The regulations for Lent iu the Diocess of Charleston are, therefore, the following : Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent, falls on the 2o'th day of February. 1. AU tho faithful who have completed their twenty-first year, are, unless legitimate? ly dispensed, bound to observe the Fast of | Lent. 2. They are to make only one meal a day, excepting Sundays. 3. The meal allowed on fast days is not to be taken till about noon. 4. At that meal, if on any day permission \ should be granted for eating"flesh, both flesh ! and fish aro not to be used at the same time, even by way of seasoning. 5. A small refreshment, commonly called col? lation, is allowed in tho evening; no general rule as to the quantity of food permited at this time is or can be made. But the practice of the most regular Christian is, never to let it exceed the fourth part of an ordinary meal. G. The quality of food allowed at a collation is, io this Diocese, bread, butter, cheese, all ; hinds of fruits, salads, vegetables and fish, j Milk and eggs are allowed. 7. General usage has made it lawful to drink in tho morning some warm liquid, as tea, I coffee, or thin chocolate, made witto water. | 8. Necessity and custom have authorized the 1 use of hog's' lard, inBtead of butter, in pre paring fish, vegetables, &c. 9. The following persons are exempted from the obligations ot fasting: Young persons un? der twenty-one years of age, the sick, nursing women, those who are obliged to do hard la- | Lor, all who through weakness cannot fast without great prejudice to their health. 10. By dispensation, the use of flesh meat will be allowed at any time on Sundays, and ouce a dav on Mondays. Tuesdays, Thursdays, I and Saturdavs. with the exception of Holy j Thursdays, and the second and last Saturdaj's j of Lent." i 11. Poisons dispensed from the obligation of fasting, on account of tenden or advanced age, or hard labor, are not bound by the restriction of using moat only at one meal on days on which its use is granted by dispensation. Others dispensed from the fast for other caus? es, as well as those who are obliged to fast, are permitted to use meat only at one meal. Bv order of t KT. REV. DR. LYNCH, Bishop of Charleston. T. BERMINGHAM, Vicar-General. Charleston, S. C., February 10,1868. CorjBT OF GENERAL SESSIONS AND COMMON PLEAS, HON. F. J. MOSES PRESIDING_Tho case of Bernard Leddy os. the Charleston City Railway Company, was resumed and the argu? ments concluded. The Judgo charged thc jury, who at a late hour brought in a sealed verict. _ COTTON IN COLUMBIA.-The Phoenix says: "The advance in cotton has been the means of bringing a large quantity of the fleecy arti? cle to market. As a consequence, tho streets are filled with wagons, business is brisk, and the countenances of the merchants are beam? ing with delight. In fact, for the past week, the complaint of "hardtimes" has not been heard."_ THE LADIES in charge of the Widows' Home, Broad-street, most gratefully acknowledge re? peated supplies of beef, three timei a week, from Mr. Thomas Johnson, in aid of an effort to furnish the inmates with soup. These con? stant and liberal contributions arc most valua? ble assistance to thoso who are striving to make thc Home as comfortable as possible to the occupants. The ladies will close tho prize lottery on Tuesday, 25th instant, and all tickets held after that date will necessarily be for? feited._ THE LECTUBE ON MEXICO, by Dr. Gerard de la Ravelle, was not as well attended as tho subject and the lecturer deserved. The theatro proved the greater attraction, and the Doctor had br t a elim audience. Notwithstanding this drawback, he exerted himself to please, and succeeded in interesting his hearers to tho close. The Doctor, from his personal ex? perience, was able to put the subject in its most attractive light, and his description of the last days of the Empire WUB quito enter? taining. The character of the Mexican Gene? rala, and the treachery of Lopez, waa well described, and his account of tho country and the people showed that he had not been an nnattentive obuerver. Wa understand that the Doctor has been requested to repeat the-lec? ture._ THE THEATBE LAST NIGHT.-" The Daughter cf the Regiment, or the Fortune of War," was another triumph of tho Templetons, drawing a crowded house. Mrs. Watkins as Josephine, the child of the regiment, was chann? ing; her spirited acting and fine Binging suiting the part to a nicety. Guillotto the peasant in love with Josephine, v/iis well personated by Mr. Watkins, and his a causing description of his love, that would in? duce him not only to lace a lion, but to storm a menagerie, was received with a general titter. The afterpiece was a humorous com? edy, that brought down the house. The Tem? pletons have met with the success that their efforts to please deserve; and the presence of sc popular and efficient a company will be no inconsiderable inducemont to draw tho country tride to our city. THE NEW MAYOR AND THE VAGRANTS.-A number of persons of known I ad characters h?.ve been recently arrested as vagrants by tho police authorities. Many of them have boon sent to jail, where they were frequently discov? ered to be thieves of the worst description. General Burns bas already intimated his inten? tion to have these suspicious characters, who huve no visible means of support, severely pun? ished. When arrested, they will bo sent oither tc the jail or from the city. One of tho ii mt questions addressed to a prisoner is concern? ing bis mode of lifo, and if the answers aro not sntisfactory, he will be considered a vagrant, and dealt with accordingly. THE ILLUMINATION AT THE CHARLESTON HOTEL.-Since Major Horbach, the present popular proprietor und superintendent of the Charleston Hotel, has token charge, he has de? vised a number of improvements that tend to increase the comfort of his numerous guests. The latest of these was exhibited last night for the flist time, when tho Major bad tho entire front of tho hotel illuminated, wh?e tho fine band of the 6th Infantry, stationed on the upper piazza, discoursed their most pleasing strains. Tho effect produced was all that could bo desired, for tho long coiridors were not only made as bri?ht as day, but the whole street in front of the hotel was brightly illumined. As was expect? ed, the combination of the music and tho lights proved a powetful attraction, and a large crowd waa in attendance both tit tho ho? tel and on the opposite side of the street, whore some American citizens of African descent kept time to the music in the mazy dance. Major Horbach has succeeded in making tho Charleston Hotel what it was in its palm ?o?, days; bot he is not satisfied, and meditates other improvements that will make it.oae of the finest and most popular caravansaries iu the South. Six double branch gas jets have been placed in each piazza, wini o the main cnlrunce is ornamented with anoat and tasty chandelier. Th? fixtures were furnished by Mcssrg.Drown &, Hyer, of Broad-street, aud reflect great ci edit upon their skill as workmen. There aro few buildings tn the South that have a moro imposing front, or where entire architectural design is more perfect than the Charleston Hotel. This was seen at a glance iu the daytime, bnt the recent addition Df those gas jets has rendered it equally attractive by night. With tho theatre in successful operation, and with popular hotels like the Charleston, that invite the presence of guests, there is little doubt that tho coming spring trade ol' our city, if not equal to that of the past, will yet be brisE and cheering.

MAPES' SOPEE-PHOSPHATES.-There are few agriculturists who have not heard of these fer? tilizers, and the number who have tried and experienced their viitues is proportionately large. On every description of land, but par? ticularly OD the cotton plantations of the South, a manure of some description is needed more or loss frequently. The planters have tried JIapes' Super-Phosphato and know that it is all that it is represented to be. Mr. H. W. Kinsman, tho agent in this city, has a number of testimonials from Southern planters in which they speak in the highest termB of its merits. It has been carefully analyzed by a distinguished chemist, and is pi o ved to con? tain nothing deleterious to the growing plants. Mr. Kinsman's advertisement, with full par? ticulars, can be seen in another column. /frtilijers. CROASDALE'S GEN HINE SUPEK-PHOSPHA_ THE STANDARD FERTILIZER.

Ourney: DEAS SIB : For tho past year I have had the superintendence of a large Cotton planting interest near the city. In the cultivation of the land I havo used CROASDALE'S PHOSPHATIDS, and although thc season was most unfavorable to a fair experiment of this Fertilizer, I can with safety say that the bene? ficial effects on the crops in the progress of its growth was most manifest. My faith in its utility ls so strong that I will recommend its UPC for the ensuing season. Very respectfully, G. W. S. LEGARE HILTON HEAD, December 20, 1867. Wm. Ourrey : DEAS SIB : I experimented with five different kinds of Phosphates and Manures the past season on cotton lands, and am forcibly convinced that "CEOASDALE'-i SUPER-PHOSPHATE" is far su? perior to any other of the fertilizers I have tried, and think so lavorably of it that 1 intend giving it thc preference the coming season.

For f?ll report, with analysis made by the Com? mittee of tho Institute, composed of Dr. C. E. BOOK, Professor J. G. POULE? and other prominent Chem? ists, euc pamphlets. The distinguished feature of this SUPER-PHOS? PHATE rrom other tiimiiar Fertilizer." is, that all of ils ingr?dient? are of animal origin, and are either soluble in water, or tn a condition to quickly become soluble in tho soil und be taken up by the crop. Contains no inert or mineral materials. Ihe proper relativo proportion of the ingredients in MAPES' ?. PER-PHOi>PHATE to meet the re? quirements ol the Cotton crop on Georgia and South taro.ina soils, is fully proved by tho experience of planters who testified that wherever applied, even to land noted for rusting cotton, the disease is entirely corrected, and a healthy, vigurous growth produced. On the same lind Peruvian Guano and other fertil? izers have foiled to secure a healthy growth. BEPOBTS FROM PLANTEES. 1867. For Letters in full se: Descriptive Pamphlet. Dr. E. M. ROYALL, Christ Church Parish, writes: Applied at tho rate of'150 to 200 pounds per acre on 11th npril, on 22 acres blue clay land, a good deal worn from being planted in cotton from 1857 to 1867. with only one year's r^st during that time, and not withstanding the long continued cold and heavy rain, and gales during thc spring and summer, about the first cf september the crop un thu held was estima? ted by somo of our best judges to promise a yield of 180 to 200 pounds tine Sea i stand Cotton Lint lo the acre. Notwithstanding thc ravages of the caterpillar, the first cotton picked was from tho Held on which MAPES' PHOSPHATE waa used, and it has made about 65 pounds to the acre, while no otber man? ured land mado over 45 pounds. Hos use J MAi'EV PHOSPHATE ou melons, potatoes and the garden with aa tis fae to i y results. THOMAS?, SALTI.U, Washington County, Ga., re pora that seventy-five pounds per acre ou ola land Increased boa. the Cotton aud tho Corn three-fold. Cuusidora il far more economical than Peruvian Guano. L?r. E. PASSONS, Uandersvillo, Wuetington County Ga., save: "My observation is that MAPES' SUPER-PHOS? PHATE is u prt-vt't'tive against rust in cotton. Has about doubled the Cotton and trooled the Corn, bas done better than Peruvian Ouano per pound." J. Sv. SCOTT, of same section, reports: "That his crop manured with Peruvian Guano was far more effected by drought a.d excessive rains than where MAPES' SUl'tju-PHOSPHATE was used. -La:: us. MATES' in preference to any fertilizer he has eeeu used by Ins uoighbors." W. H. STAKES, taunton, Gu., roports: "Un land ubout halt covered with sedge, and which bad not bien cultivated in tn o years, when the manure was put on, badly manured, crop would jield two pounds where thc unnianurod would yiel I one," H. B. HAMILTON, Amcricus, Ga., reports: ..Obtained the most satisfactory ie3ults from MAfuS' SL'PEU-PUO 'PHATE, applying it as a top dressing. Considered to h.ve had the beet garden this year in southwestern Georgia," W. J. ANDERSON, Fort Talley,Ga., reports: "MAPEV ?UrJat-PHOSPHAIE has doubled the crop ot cot:ou lu ovcry > ase reported, and some re? port it has more than doubled thou: crop. On wheat and oats the results aro very satisfactory." D. A. WABNOCK, Beach Branch, S. C., reports: "On laud which always rusted cotton, increased the crop twofold; * s flue cotton us ho has Been this year. Prevouted rust. Four rows nnmanured rust? ed in August, Everything the MAPES' SUPER? PHOSPHATE was tried on did well. Cotton stood tho cold weather in Spring; kept perfectly green, and growed finely; has beat Permian Ouano in his neighborhood. Believes :t to be tue BEBT Manure now in use." E. R. LILES, LilesriUe, Au-on County, N. C., re? ports: "As compared with Peruvian Ouano and Bandit's Super-Phosphato, thc resuit was decidedly in favor Of MAPEb' sUPHLB-PHOSPHATIi; atti louted, be vond doubt, t-> thc fact that the ravages of the rust were not, by a marked difference, so severe where it was applied as wlicro the other manures were." JAMES MCMEEKIN, Alston, S, c., reports: . "Used u ton of Peruvian, and found the result but one half as compared with tiio.-e from MAPES' SUPEH-PHOSPHATE. soil mostly sandy, with clay HUbsoil. Marked difference in tho size of the bolls, in favor of MAPES' S?P?R-PHOSrHATE. On Cot? ton plants the i i.creas d growth was about 100 per cont" JORK R. HAIR, Mim*, S. C. : "Cotton was more vigorous and healthy, and ma? tured at least two weeks earlier where MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE waa usod os compared with other Fertilizers applied. MAPES' SUPfclR-PHO PHATii produced It o pounds per acre moro Cotton than Rhodes' super-Phosphate, and 50 pounds per acre more than Soluble Pacific Guano. Same quan? tity ol' each. ISO pounds, used to the acre, cultivated in the same monner. MAPES' feUPER-PHOSPHATE more than doubled tho yield of Cotton." R. s. VENNING, Christ Church Parish, S. C., re? pot ts: ..One application, 200 pounds MAPES' SUPER? PHOSPHATE, per acre, made the cotton grow to the height of six ice', whcie it grew only two feet the year before. Considers MAPEV SUPER-PHOS PHATE tho best Fertilizer for SEA ISLAND COT? TON, and would safely recommend it to all plant? er'." S. C. MEAKS, Spartaaburg, S.

Has no hesitation in saying it is the special manure for the turnip and Irish potato." P. C. PENDLETON, Valdoston.Ga., writes: "MAPEs' bUPER-PHOcPHATE has exceeded my most sanguino expectations. Ihe effects ot its use on Corn, Peas and Garden Vegetables was most marked. If it can bo always kept up to the stan? dard iL must take tue ptelercuce of all fertilizers in use." M. B.
