She is on the berth for New York, at Eoyce'a wharf, where those who take an interest in marino architecture can see her. A PATENT PUMP of ingenious and novel con? struction and astonishing power, t. e invention of a young Charlestonian, Mr. N. H. Lobby, will be in operation from 10 A. M. to 3 P. M., to? day at the Artesian well. Rice platters, miners, seafaring men and o thors who may be interested in a cheap, rapid and effective pumping pro? cess, will fiud it worth their while to give tho merits of this pump a careful examination. THE THEATRE.-Though a number of por? tons attended the theatre last nig ht, in the ex? pectation of witnessing the great. Irish drama, "Arrah-na-Pogue,-" they were not disappointed at their mistake. "East Lynne" is one of tho most popular plays that has ever been drama? tized. It is a condensation of the novel of tho same name, by Mrs. Wood, and tho most thril? ling and interesting features have been pre? served in an attractive manner. It ia needless to say that with Mr. and Mrs. Watkins sustain? ing tho principal characters it was well render? ed. The audience was quito large, und thc in? terest unabated throughout. ACCIDENT ON THE. STREET RAILWAY_About one o'clcclr yesterday, while Conductor Mur- J ray's car was passing the corner of RadcluTo and King streets, a negro lad attempitd to jump on the front platform, but missed Iiis footing and fell. Thefront wheel struck thc heel of bia aboo, and the flange pasacd over bis leg, laying it open to tho bone.- Tho atten? tion of the driver was attracted by tho jol'tms tho brakes were instantly applied, and tho boy rescued. He was placed on a passiuur car and taken to the upper terminus, where his wound was dressed by Dr. Myers. No blame is attached to the driver. The boy had been re? peatedly warned about jumping on tho cars by his father, but porsistod in the practice, and narrowly escaped with his life. THE CITADEL AND ITS SUBBOUNDTNOS.- Tho appropriation made to improvo the Citadel and grounds has been judiciously expended. The ohange that has been wrought du ring the past few months is marko.i, and tho present appearance of tho Citadel ren? ders it the most attractive building in tho C4ry. lis .former dull red color has been changed to a pleasing cream shade, and the soldiers aro now ompioyed in giving the leuce around thc green the same tint. It was tho intention of the commander of the post to have had the campus ploughed, and sown with grass seed. Though somewhat late in the season, this may yet be done. In a few apota nature has already asserted her sway, and small patches of green refresh the eye. The trash and straw on the green havo been colleoted in heaps, which were flied yesterday, it now needs but a little raJdng and a few seeds prop? erly sown to make the green worthy of its TI ame._ ClpTTON CLAIMS.-The following paragraph from thc Washington eorrespr ndeuco of thc -Sow York Times will be of interest to many of J our readers: "Ibo business of recovering olaims fer cotton captured and seized as aban? doned by treasury agents during aDd siuco the ?war has grown into such lars o proportions that Congress is compelled to legislate against it in aelf-detenco. There has beeu pending iu the Senate for somo time a bill to cover into the treasury the euliro proceeds of such cot? ton, amounting, exclusive of what has boen successfully reclaimed, to ovor thirty millions or dollars. This bill passed the Senato to-day. RN- ita operation it will be placed with the trea? sury caS? Pieper; whereas, heretofore, it has been J^tandiDg to the credit ot the lund irotn which it was derived, lt can now only be ob? tained from the treasury by r?gulai- warrant in satisfaction of any claim allowed by the Court of Claims. Thc final passiere of this bill will prove a severe check upon cotton claimants, who, to be successful, must pass a very severe ordeal aa to their position and record during the war, before tho Court ot' Claims will enter? tain their casos." THE FOLLOWING PITEOUS APPEAL appears in the Marion Crescent : To Of? Ftople of Marion District: I am the wife of Edward C. Collins, and daughter of Colonel Levi Legotte; I have seven smau children, and the eldest sickly. My hus? band was my only means of su, port. He was arrested by military authority on the 18th of August last, and is now imprisoned in Castle Pinckney. I barleston harbor. When in thc Manon jail the officers refused to let his friends soe him. Ho had bought Gallivants Ferry and was making a support tor his family. Tho offi ..ers said that the ferry was abaudoned, and gave an order to Clayton Bailey to take the ferry, which he still has "in possession. 1 have no mu'e, horse or ox, or means to buy. My father ia in tho seventy-second year of his agc-my father-in-law six or' seven years older, and threatened with apoplexy. My father has been sick more than a year; my father aud father in-law are very poor and can hardly support their families. My father has reduced himself to want by assisting my family. My father had twenty negroes and my father-in-law sev? enty. My* friends are reduced to poverty those who would help me are unable. I am now io sufferuig circumstances, myself and my children are almost without clothes-and if my husband is net released from prison, or I re? ceive assistance from friends, we must inevi? tably starve.* I am ashamed to make this ap rjeal but my children are heart-broken and {taring. MARY COLLINS. Trade with the Interior. CHEAP TBAVEL BY BAILB0AD-A GOOD CHANCE FOB crrr AJTD CODNTUY MERCHANTS. Some tiree ago a commiiteo of Charleston merchants made an application to the Presi? dent of the South Carolina Railroad Company tor increased facilities of travelling between Charleston aud thc interior, and urged the im? portance of removing every obstacle that stood in tho way of the rapid improvement of trade. They asked that tho company would issue tickets to merchants and others, travelling in the country to secure business, or coming to tho city to make purchases, at the rate of about one cent per mile of travel. Tho application was at once taken into con? sideration, and a plan has beeu adopted which will satisfy every reasonable man, and prove incontestably tho determination of our main railroad to do all that can bo done for the com? mercial good of tbe city and the State. For the sum of twenty-five dollars the South Caro? lina Railroad issues a ticket for ono thousand miles of travel. Each ticket may be usod by any member of the firm to which it is issued, the names of the persons so privileged being endorsed upon the ticket itself. The ticket is good for one year, and is divided into sections, each representing twenty miles of travel. For every twenty miles,or part of twanty miles.that may be travelled, one of the sections is punched out, so that a person travelling one hundred and thirty miles would cancel sections representing ono hundred and forty miles. At twenty-five dollars for tho thousand miles, the rate is two and a half cents per mile; so that tho cost of frivolling for a merchant from Charleston to Columbia, or vice versa, would be only three dollars and fifty cents. Tho tickets arc not good unless stamped by tho agent issuing them, and conductors aro instructed to take up and forfeit the tickets if they aro used for other than business pur? poses, or if they are found in the possession of an7 other persons than those whose names are endorsed as being entitled to their use. It is now evident that tho railroad has done its part, and our merchants and factors must not bo backward in doing theirs. The strong point is to persuade country merchants to malte their purchases every quarter, or every month, instead of twice or once a year, as is the usual custom. In Charleston they can find afine se? lection of goods of every kind and quality, but tho merchant frequently prefers to buy his goods in Baitimoro or New York when a con? siderable quantity is required. This can be overcome by a demonstration of tho fact that Charleston is a good market, and the diffusion of the knowledge that a man can now come to Charleston every month or two at a really tri? fling cost. In th's way he saves interest, avoids tho losses of dead stocks, has fresh goods every few weeks, and can attend in person to supply? ing tho special wants of his customers. Tho merchants of Charleston must at once go actively into ?.ho hold. They must be con? tent io do business at small profit, they must hunt up the business that docs not come of its own accord, they must keep befoie the public . tho advantages they can offer. All over the country they can send their agents. Commis? sion merchants and brokers can solicit con? signments, mcrchauts can find customers for ? their wares. Ono interest will act favorably upon another, and where a farmer sells his crop there will ho purchase his supplies. These are racing timos, and thoso who are dull and weak must bejdistanced. Let every man press to the front, and snow his friends ?brough tho columns of tho inimitable Daru NEWS what his colors aro. Charleston can do a large business, and if ( Charleston business men are active, energetic, ^ md wide-awake, they ?viii drum zealously for . sostom, advertise in THE DALLY NEWS, and, j in the end, win a "petroleum"-fortuno. THE PROMENADE COSCEBT.-Tho hall ovpr Adams' Express Company laBt evening was ; thronged with an array of beauty nnd.broad- | cloth that reminded one of old times. Thc } post band was bi attendance, and made the sweetest of music; the refreshments'tickled | the diaphragm hugely, and altogether tho oe- : easton and its votaries wcro pleasantly filled up, If to bo sandwiched between two pretty girls, with their white arms resting in tho : crook of your elbow, and their little ioet keep- : ing time to tho intoxicating melody, and now : und then a halt to mix sugary compliments and stewed oysters at one of tho tables-, don't uiake a Ifcavyun iu tho heart, thou we know nothing about Paradise, lt's sublime. Spend a quarter to-night to get tn, and sovcral other quarters before you get out, and you'll say so too. THE REAL ESTATE MABKET.-At an estate salo yesterday, by afr. Z. B.

"COMMERCE IS KING"-"OTO STEAM AND PACKET FLEET."-With the rise in- the value of cotton comes that old-fashioned activity on East Bay and along the wharves which makes one feel as if there was a turn in the tide of commerce in favor of old Charleston. We learn that nearly overy available berth, along the whurves ie iull of shipping, perhaps for tho first time since 1860. For Liverpool there is ample tonnage, and the rate has now settled at one-half pence, which gives the port ?tn advantage in European shipments. For Nevi- York, besides the rogulor lines of Leary, James AJiger & Co., and others, .Messrs. Courtenay & Trenhohn and John& Theo. Getty, keep along active operations, vvith 'extra steamships, which have been the means of keeping up successfully the cotton movements to that city, free of all delays, so tbat shippers in tho interior have realized, dur? ing the past three or four weeks of rush, that "dispatch" which is so desirablo to them. To Baltimore, we have the pleasure of announcing tho resumption of regular trips by t hc Sea Gull, which steamer and her consort, i he Falcon, will henceforth be ready to meet all thc requirements of tho trade to our sister city, while they furnish to Philadelphia ship? pers facilities for freight transportation, I whioli now help to mako up part of all their rerrular cargoes, fast freight trains, delivering cotton in Philadelphia from Baltimore stoam ors in five hours. Wo predict nn active business in shipping during the remainder of this month.

Tho matter has boon takon up earnestly by a number of well known gen? tlemen of that city, who nro to bc assisted by several prominent citizen* .rum Now York and California. Wo moke from tho prnpnimma, which is to be made public in a lew days, the following extract. The name of the Society shall bo "Tho Pio? neer Southern Educational Aid Society." Its object shall be tho promotion ot knowledge in those portions ol tho Southern States where opportuitilia for education arc limited, und whore tho means ol' pareuls, many of whom have been reduced from affluence to penury, aro circumscribed. Tho Society is not, howev? er, lo be a strictly charitable ouc. It is to be casontiaUy an Aia Society. Its chief obj ct is !o encourage u depressed and dispirited people-to teach thom how lo aid thouisclvos, and to give them hoart in the midst ol their re? veries, by assuring them of substantial sympa tliv and considerate co.-oporution. It9 efforts shall, for tho present, oe directed to the dcvol uieiit und permanent establishment of the Charleston Parish andHome Schoo'.-, the former being a day school for the oducation of nvo h mi died ' children, on the most economical principles, and the lat; or being a home for ono nuudi odboys, chiefly orphans andbalf orphans, who uro without means nnd.without parental care. T?is effort 'ia intouded merely as a pio? neer effort. Should tho success of'?be Society enab?o it lado so, it'will hereafter extend its u.-.cinbioss to the establishment and encour? agement of similar tchoUs in other Southern States. - . Tho sj hoolu of the Society shall be open to nil white children, each of whom Bhail pay whatever it can afford, to its.own education. No child shall be recolved gratuitously whose parents or guardians are in a condition to pay thc very modorate prices asked tor tuition.
