YESTEBDAV was Quinquageaima Sunday, so called from its being about the fiftieth day be? fore Easter. It is somotimes known as Sbrove Sunday. There aro no special observances connected with the day. In the Presbyterian churches it has been set apart for prayers for all institutions of learning. THE MAOIO LANTEBN EXHIBITION at the Col? lege Chapel, on Saturday evening, was a per? fect success. Professors Holmes and Gibbes made their historical illustrations extremely interesting. Few persons are in the practice of visiting places of amusement on Saturday evening, but the chapel was well filled. The exhibitions, we learn, will bo repeated at an early day. THE GALAXY for March, is an unusually in? teresting number. Among the articles is "A Deserted Plantation," a war-time sketch, by Mr. E. B. Seabrook, of Charleston. In Lippin cott's Magazine for March, Mr. W. Gilmoro Simms tells the old ".Story of Chastelard," and gives it new interest. Mr. Charles Astor Bristed brings to light two Alsatian novelists, Erckmann and Chartrain, whose namo9 have been scarcely heard of here, but whose pro? ductions have been widely read and greatly enjoyed in their English disguise. SOUTH CAROLINA FRIENDLY SOCIETY.-At the regular anniversary meeting of this Society the following officers were elected for the en? suing year: Y. B. SHIVER, President. W. BREDEMANN, Vice-Pr?sident.

FANTRY CHARITABLE ASSOCIATION.-This asso? ciation celebrated its second anniversary on Saturday evening, "Washington's Birthday," at the Masonic Hall. It was strictly a private meeting, only tho members of the association being present. A collation, \ liich had been furnished by Tully,, was discussed during the recess, after which the newly elected officers were waited upon by a oommittee of three and conducted to their seats. They briefly acknow? ledged the compliment paid them, and tho general business of tho evening was resumed. The following are the officers elected to servo for the ensuing year : JAMES M. CARSON, President, . H. B. OLNEY, Senior Warden. H. I. GREER, Junior Warden. J. L. HONOUR, secretary and Treasurer. E. 8. BURNHAM. ) stowards J. H. SCH RIEN ER, / btowaras' Dr, F. L. PARKER, Surgeon.

MUNICIPAL REGULATIONS.-Our new Mayor has officially announced that tho police aro to be sustained and that he will be severe in bis sentences in all cases of esisting their au? thority. The large fines imposed on Saturday were not so much for the offences committed against city regulations, but because the par? ties had resisted the police. Charleston is at present more orderly and quiet than Northern cities, and the small force of policemen on duty are amply sufficient to preserve this blessed ?tate of things if their authority is sustained. General Burns has signified his intention to fjllow that ccurse, and offenders had better consider their ways and act in accoidance to law or they will assuredly come to grief. The General warned inebriates that their first offence under his administration was treated with the light fine of five dollars, but if they insisted in resting their heads upon a lap of earth, or, in other words, making their beds in the street, he would organize a chain gang for their benefit. "A new broom sweeps clean," and if the Mayor is as good as his word i he offenders will speedily be swept into good behavior or a prison. A YACHT CLUB TO BE ORGANIZED.-Since tho close of the war a lively interest has sprung up in the sport of yachting which has become a popular amusement, with many of our citizens. During the past season a number of trials of speed have been made, and Charleston can already boast a respectable flotilla, though there is little uniformity in the size or tonnage ol' the vessels. It is now proposed to form a regular ciub, to be known as the "Charleston Yacht Club," whoso meetings will be held at .the old Jockey Club Rooms, over Dayton's Res? taurant. AFifcsitf it is proposed to have but a wnall entrance fo^SUjd subscription. Here? after these matters ca?Siv arranged to suit tho viewB of the membersT^fChe first meeting bas been called for Thursday ov*ltfingi *t Day? ton's Restaurant. We have nowN?lie Kalo, Rose, Maggie Mitchell, Eleanor and ot\er8> he sides one or two pleasure yachts that tS* 9W building. If the owners of these boats entdr into the scheme, a fine club can be formed*. The rules of the Now York Yacht Club, with ^ some slight modifications, could bo adopted, < and the trials of speed be hereafter made on 1 an established plan. y The Radical " Slate " in loutit Carolina. LATEST POLITICAL GOSSIP-W HA I WAS DONE BY THE NOMINATING CAUCD8-THE COLOEED BRETHREN DECLINE TO TAKE BACK BEATS THEY INSIST ON THEIR FULL SHARE OF THE SPOILS-HOW THE OFFICES ABE TO BE DISTRIBU? TED-THE FUTURE SENATORS, . REPRESENTA? TIVES AND JUDOES OF SOUTH CAROLINA-A NICE PROSPECT. The Radical nominating caucus which met on Friday eveuing, did not achieve tho object for which it was held. The evening was consumed in discussing the propriety of making formal j nominations at the present time, and whether tho convention had the authority in its repre? sentative capacity to do so. Without arriving at any conclusion in the matter, the meeting broke up in a squabble. It is clearly the intention of the colored peo? ple, however, to be represented on the floor of Congress, in the judiciary department and legislature-wherever, indeed, there is an opportunity to enjoy honor or greenbacks. That Cardoza, Cain, Beverly Nash, Elliot, DeLarge, Langley, or others of that ilk will remain in the back ground in the grand rush for the spoils of office, is not in the least pro- ' bable. J. J. Wright (colored), from Beaufort, has his ebon eye upon a judgeship, and he J knows where tho votos aro coming from that will elect him. W. G. Whipper has a fine show? ing for a fat office, and perhaps like Wright, will wear a gown. Nash and Wilder are both candidates for the Sheriffalty of Bichland Dis? trict, or Clerk of the Court. Indeed, there is not an office in the gift of the voters for which these colored candidates will not enter the race. An attemp. will be made, it is said, to im? pose upon the credulity of colored men, by de? claring that any candidate who runs on a ticket not nominated or endorsed by the convention, no matter bow good a Radical he may be, will bo read out of bis party. If this expedient should succeed, it will give the control of the State to those who are "in the ring," and crowd out others whoso claims politically aro quite as strong and legitimate as the regular nominees. The leaders of the convention are evidently nervous about attempting the experi? ment of electing a black man to Congress over awhile man. Speaking of Congressional offices, it is believed that if six members are elected four from the several districts and two at large -they will be admitted by Congress. The prominent names for United States Senators, have already appeared in THE NEWS, to wit : J. M. Rutland, B. F. Whittemore, and Dr. A. G. Mackey. Mr. Whittemore may, however, ac copt a nommation for the First Congressional District, and retire in favor of Mr. Rutland, which will give the latter a fair field and a free fight. Mr. F. J. Moses, Jr., of Sumter, is also a strong man among the Republicans of the up? country, and the contest will he between him and Mr. Whittemore. As both are good talkers, the wire pulling and wool gathering in the 1st District will be terrific. The Second Congressonal District is an ob? ject of much affectionate contemplation among Ibo candidates-C. C. Bowen, J. P. M. Epping, D. H. Chamberlain, and Gilbert Pillsbury. These people and their allies at work make a very lively kettle of fish. Pillsbury is eaid to be too slow and phlegmatic for an actiro can? vass, and C. C. Bowen cannot take the test lath. Therefore, unless this disability is re noved, (he race will lin between Epping and Chamberlain. It is, however, contemplated to nake tho latter the Attorney-General of the Jtate, if ho will accept tho office, which is not irobablo while thero is a ghostly chance of be ng elected to Congress. , lu the Third Congressional District B. Odell | )uucan, of Newberry, is the only name we have < leard announced. If nominated he will doubt- , ess be elected without much opposition. In the Fourth Congressional District there , s R. host of aspirants, but James H. Goss, of Jnion, heads the hst. Ho has moro solidity >f character about him than any of the others lamed, and more of thia world's gooda to nain tain tho position of representative. The amount of button-holeing, wire-pulling, og-roUing, dinner-eating, and whiskey-drink ng resorted to as means to secure the ends in ,-iew is perfectly wonderful, and these tilings teem to como as naturally to the political ledgliugs as to the full-picked gander. Bun? ion! be stoc'.v is evidently up, and speculators ire wild with excitement. THE MAILS ALL XUGHT AGAIN.-For some time OJ st, owing wo believe, to the closing of naviga? ron on the Potomac, between Washington and bequia Creek, the Northern mails havo been .egularly one day behind hand in reaching Charleston. The recent mild weather we pre? sume has reopened the route, for on Satur lay we received a heavy double mail, including ;he latest papers due according to the schedule. FATHER RYAN AS AN EDITOR.-We see by mr Augusta (Ga. ) exchanges that a new paper, o be called The Banner of the South, io bo de? voted to religion, literature and art, is to be oublished weekly, in that city, commencing on ho first of March, to bo edited by the Rev. A T. Ryan, tho distinguished Southern poet. Terms three dollars per annum. We believe he announcement will be welcomed through? out tho South, for if one writer has endeared limself moro than another to oui- stricken peo ole, it is Fat' Ryan. Tho new enterprise las our cordial good wishes for its success. WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY.-This anniversary vas celebrated in a very quiet manner on Sat? urday. Flags were raised on the public build ngs, and at noon the old Revolutionary salute of thirteen guns was fired by the battery on ho Citadel Green and at the forts in the bar? oon At the government offices business was luspended and the occasion observed as a holi lay, but the stores and banks remained open LS usual. In the evening the Washington jight Infantry Charitable Association, tho Y ashing ton Fire Engine Company and the Jouth Carolina Friendly Society mot and cele? brated . their anniversaries. The Cincinnati md other societies also met in the evening, mt there were no suppers given. The tight iess of tho times precluded any demonstra ions of this description, and the different or? ganizations wisely determined to wait until letter days should dawn, or the flush times of ho past return, before they indulged in any innecossary expense. ARREST OF THIEVES.-Charles Wood, a col? ored boy, about fourteen years of age, was ar .estod by the detectives for stealing twenty sight dollars from James (?adsden, colored, So. 25 Spring-street. Gadsden had taken the ooy from thc Colored Orphan Asylum, but his :arly training muBt have boen defective, as his irst movo was to rob his benefactor. William Fowler, alias Fuller, colored, was ar? rested for pioking the pocket of Robin Lumb jate, also colored, of thirty-eight dollars. In ooth cases the parties were turned over to a ?ugistrate by the detectives. At the guardhouse Thomas Edwards, color? id, was arrested for being drunk andotealing a oair of shoes from Messrs. O'Neill Sr, Sons in iing-street. Samuel Simons, colored, had a row boat vhich ho had stolen from James Clarke, color id, at Mount Pleasant, and was ottering for 3ale. Both parties will havo a hearing before oia Honor the Mayor this morning. THE UNITED STATES MARSHAL FOR THE DIS? TRICT OF SOUTH CAROLINA.-In a former issue wc published the fiict that Dr. Thomas Sim, a Scotchman and ex-United States Surgeoi, had been nominated by tho President to superscdo Mr. J. P. M. Epping, the present United States Marshal in this State. Several days have elapecd, tho Senate hnB not acted upon the nomination, and meanwhile, wc have obtained copies, of certain interesting documents which sufficiently show one of the causes that have beeD ?it work to effect the proposed change, to? gether with the counter-efforts by the friends of Mr. Epping to keep him in his present posi? tion. Tho first paper which wo publish is a depo? sition by Mr. Epping, showing by what author? ity he received and applied the sum of four hundred dollars obtained from certain parties, and ii) as follows: STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, / District and City of Charleston, j Peisonally appeared J. P. IL Epping, United States Marshal for South Carolina District, who being duly sworn makes oath and says, that at tho United States District Court at Green? ville, S. C., for August term, 1867, Frank Ar? nim, G. R. Crump and W. B. Davidson woro tried and convicted ol' violation of tho United states Internal Revenue laws, and were sen? tenced by bis Honor Judge Bryan, presiding, to pay flues and costs araountin ' to $12.400, or be imprisoned twelve months each. The jury hading recommended tho prisoners to mercy after tho sentence, the defendants, through their counsel, Governor Perry, General Gory and General Esley, drew up a petition for ? pardon, which was signed by the Judge and the jury. The District Attorney, at thc re? quest of tho defendants' counsel,"then stated in open court that although ho had no direct power in the matter, ho would recommend tho Marshal to give the parties a littlo time to ob? tain the money, and that lie wouM not press him (the Marshal) until January, 1868, to exe? cute the sentence, if tho parties would give good and sufficient security for (heir forthcom? ing at that time, or the payment of the finos and coats. This being assented to by his Honor Judge Bryan, the parties were tempora? rily released by mc, upon making a deposit of $400 to meet extraordinary anti eventual ex? penses, such as the expenses of defendants' witnesses, their possible rearrest, or counsel fees, and upon having given notes, with good endorsers, for the fines and costs. When the time of payment carno, the parlies produced a full and unconditional pardon from the President, although a partial pardon had only been recommended by the Judge and jury. A rulo has subsequently been sued out against me and tho defendants by the District Attorney, for the informer's share, holding that tho President's pardon cannot, under thc circumstances, relieve them from the samo, and I have employed the Hon. C. H. Sirnonton in my behalt, and the Hon. W. D. Portor has appeared for tho d?fendants. J. P. M. EPPING, U. S. Marshal South Carolina District.

FOR SO. t'A. I, Daniel Horlbeck, Clerk of said courts, do hereby certify that I have road over thc two preceding pages of paper and find thc state? ment corresponds with my recollections. Witness my hand at Charleston this 12th Fobruary, 1868. DANIEL HORLBECK, C. C. aud D. C. U. S. for So. Ca. The statement of the Marshal, relativo to what was said by mc in court at the time of the passing of the sentence in tho caso above referred to, is substantially correct. I said I would not rule the Marshal tor tho money be? fore January next, but do not remember that I said anything about tho "execution of sen? tence." D. T. CORBIN, U. S. District Attorney So. Ca. CHARLESTON, S. C., February 13,18C8. The foregoing statemont of Marshal Epping having been coroftilly i cad by me, MO far as my recollection serves," I find it to mo entirely faithful and correct. GEO. S. BRYAN, U. S. Jndge District South Carolina. Ii will bo inferred from tuc abovo that an jffort was mado by outside parlies to show that Mr. Epping had improperly received the MOO. Tho deposition and endorsements aro 3t courso a clear refutation of tho charge. The following letters are from Governor Orr md Judge Brynn, and explain thonisolvos: (COPY.) EXECUTIVE DEPARM'T, Sourn CAROLINA, / g_ CHARLESTON, 17th January, 1858. J SIR: I havo learnod that efforts mo being made to remove J. P. M. Epping hom tho posi? tion of United States Marshal for !iouth*Caro lioa. I beg to say that Mr. E. bas discharged his duties with groat promptness and fidelity since h: < appointment. So far as I know, or havo heard, ho has given satisfaction to tho court, and to the great majority of the members of tho bar in this State in tho performance of the du? ties of this office, and his removal, in viow of these facts, would be unjust to him as a public officer. I have tho honor to be, Verv respectfully, vour obedient servant, JAMES L. ORR, Gcvernor of South Carolina. To His Excellency President JOHNSON, Wash? ington, D. C. Approved : GEO. S. BRYAN, U. S. Judgo S. C. (copy. ) CHARLESTON, S. C., January 23, 18G8. Bear ?Hr: lt has como to my knowledge that there is a movement on foot to have Mr. J. P. M. Epping removed from his office as Marshal of this district. From my sense of tho value of this officer to tho country, I conld not bo passivo without dereliction of duty. For I should think it very difficult to procure a sub? stitute, who would* equal him in zeal, know? ledge, efficiency and devotion to the varied du? ties of his office. I regard .Mr. Epping as a man of remarkable energy. I know him to be perfectly faithful. The machine he has to man? age is now a very complicated one, requiring indefatigable industry, vigilance, a cioar head, experience, largo knowledge of tho processes of the law and book-keeping; without tne.se ole meuts of character und acquisition, his branch of the service would fad into disorder and con? fusion. I will pay, in tho general, looking sim? ply to the public service, and tho intelligent, faithful, thorough administration of thc duties of his office, that I tako great comfort in hav? ing an officer upon whom I can so porfecUy rely as chiefly responsible for tho faithful and efficient administiation of the justice ot' tho country in this Stale. I feel it to be my duly to make this declaration. I have the honor to remain, dear sir, With tho highest consideration, Your very obodient servant, CEO. S. BRYAN, U. S. Judgo District South Carolina.

The facts jf tho case aro briefly as follows: Conductor Cohen's car was cominer up Meeting-street, ind when near the old thcatro the horses came n contact with Dr. Jervey's buggy, which was ;rossing the track. Tho car horses were forced jackwards so as to detach the swingle treo rom tts hook. This alarmed them and they lashed off, still koeping tho track, and, when lear tho Pavilion Hotel, struck tho arm of tho ivindlase over thc drain man-hole, which in Jtcted the injuries complained of by tho plain? tiff. The old saying that "corporations have io souls" doubtless had its full woight in gov? erning the action of tho jury. Tho company, ?vc learn, will not appeal, but will abide by the r-erdict rendered. Saturday hoing the last day of the term, the imo was occupied in motions and matters of .ourse. During tho present term a largo imount of logal business has been transacted, ind many cases that havo been on the dockets 'or years woro either heard or stricken off by unsent. MAYOR'S COURT, SATURDAY, February 22. ^ few impetuous individuals anticipated Wash ngton'a Birthday, and bogan "he celebration ho night before. They were brought to tho ruardhouee rather demoralized by frequent li lalions in honor of the Father of his Country. L'fio morning light brought them to their enses, and they were soon introduced to the Uiadnmnntlius who now controls the inunict lal reine. One of the drunkists deposited a Y nd left speedily, but his compatriot was orccd to appear, and was informed that tho trcets of Charleston were not lodging places .ir drunken mon, and if tho offence was con inucd a chain gang would be established for hoir benefit.

Tbe Coroner was noti? fied, and an inquest will be held this morning. PERSONAL.-Count Guy de Borlamont and Messrs. Morris Aubent and Georgina Nagel mackers, tourists from Belgium, are now on a visit to this city, to examine the points of his? torical interest. They are staying at the Mills House. _ GENERAL D. E. SICKLES.-It is currently re? ported, on the authority of letters received in Charleston, that General Sickles is making strenuous efforts to induce Congress to replace him in his old position as commandant of this military district. He is now stumping the State of New Hampshire in behalf ot the Re? publicans, and making "fair weather" with the people, and at any moment it may be expected that, having been a "martyr" to tho policy of President Johnson, lie will be sent back, not only as a justification to himself, but as a re? buke to the Chief Magistrate. P. S.-Since writing tho abovo wo learn that Gen. S. has retired from the New Hampshire canvass on account of a laok of promptness on the part of thc Ropublican State Committee in crossing his palm with tho "sinews of war." THE HIDDEN HAND.-Tho tbeatro, on Satur? day evening, was filled with a goodly audience, drawn thither by the announcement that one of Mrs. South worth's famous New York Ledgfr stones, boiled down for dramatic representa? tion, would be performed for tho five hundred and-oneth time, with Mr. and Mrs. Watkins as the especial stars of the night. lt is superfluous to say that the play was a success. Whatever these artists have under? taken, during their brief stay in Charleston, has afforded pleasure to the attendant public, aid, although contending with the drawbacks incident to a small sta^c and hastily impro? vised theatrical machinery, their ability and versatility have won tor them whole brigades of friends, and an admiring row of reporters for a skirmish line. The "Hidden Hand" is one of your Bowory "Ihoatre ' bi, hi," sort of plays, which, at one moment, makes the exstatic tears crop n Mike the perspiration on au ice-pitcher, and the next starts a cacchination that runs through the whole gamut of sound, from the incipient "to-he-he" to the full-born, sonorous "ha-lia ha." Tho plot of the drama is thia: Capitola (Mrs. Watkins) is an ovcry-day New York newsboy-one of those little gamins of the big city, who are ragged as a paper mill, and so sharp that they will skin a customer in threo minutes, and so nicely, too, that he will never miss his hide until ho comes to change his flannels. "Old Hurricano" is the nick-name of "Warfield" (Mr. Clifford), an old-time Virginia planter, who, accompanied by his servant "Wool" (Mr. Watkins), is in search of a long lost little girl, who is an heiress. "Wool" ia like his ma?tor, a type of "ole Virginny," and, it being his first trip to tho Metropolis, be gets as proud as a mulatto in a colored congrega? tion. All Borta of difficulties afflict him, and ha finally brings up in the calaboose. Capitola is riso aricsted on) suspicion of stealing tho planter's trunk, and likewise gets into the Recorder's Cou. t. Thero old Hurri? cane hoars the boy tell his story-how he is not a boy but a girl, born in Virginia, brought to New York by her old "uiauma," who returns to Virgiuia to find some trace of tho family. Tho old mautna dies, but, before shuffling off the coil, haB an interview with old Hurricano w~ich puts him on tho Irack. Tho story is told with a pathos that star.s a copious aprinklo of brine in tho audience, and tho planter takes Capitola to his bosom. They hug industriously and the curtain goes down lorcvor on tho "hero of Rag Alley." Capitola is carried to Warfield's home; ap poars in tho next scene as his ward, and looks liko tho emanation of a moon-lit cloud. She has tho stubborncss of a young mule, and old Hurricane gets into a regular galo with her every fil'teeu minutes; blows likj a porpoise, roars, fumes, damrfgea tho furniture, and al? most "busts his biler" with wrath, i'he house screams with laughter, and fat men get tho stomach ache trying to hold in. Curious episodes of old Virginia life follow. Lonoir, tho uncle of Capitola and murderer of her father, finds out her whereabouts and hires Black Donald, an outlaw, to abduct and murder his neice. Black Donald outers her chamber at midnight; but woman's wit foils the vilh;in, aud when he attempts to eoize her, she touches a spring on tho floor and he goes srr.cwhcro down bolow. So does the curtain. _>ouald turns up in prison, and tho day before his execution Capitola helps him out. Then al e takos rofuge in an iusane asylum during a rain storm, and there finds her mother confin? ed as a lunatic ; aids her mother to escape; and just at the critical time when something awful is to be done, when the audience holds their breath in expectation of a frightful de? nouement, in rush old Hurricane, Wool el id omne genus, rescue the heroine and knock the catastrophe in tho head. Lenoir shoots him? self, and his imaginary brains lie in horrible confusion all over tho carpet in the next room. Capitola gels engaged to bo married to aman after her own heart; old Hurricane goes off in ecatacioa, and Wool behaves kimsolf like overy other oh-bo-joyful niggor should under tho cir? cumstances. So ends the play. We make especial note of this Bingle per? formance becauso it is a fair typo of the rational amusement which tho Templetons aro striving just now to givo to our people, and for which they deserve to bo supported. They have aa fcood, ?f not a better stock company than can bo found in thc majority of theatres out of thc largo cities, and aro untiring in their efforts to please. Thue far we arc glad to say that the engagement of Mr. and Mrs. Watkins baa proven profitable and attractive, and their audience have gone away moro than satisfied that iu Charleston "?JIUO things can be done as well as others."
