SNOW.-There was a fall of snow, Friday i morning last, in the Mill Creek section, about 1 ??eight miles from Columbia. It was several * inches deep in the fence corners. ' CLEARANCES.-The ship "James A. Wright" |* was cleared yesterday, by Messrs. Street j . Brothers & Co., for Liverpool, with two hun- ? ? dred and thirty-four bags s:a island and three ' . thousand five hundred and seven bales upland f ? -cotton. And Messrs. B. Mure & Co. cleared < the British ship "Gorilla,'' for the same port, ? with three hundred and twelve bags sea island 1 ? and two thousand three hundred and thirty- Y .three bales upland cotton. I FATAL OCCUBBENCE.-Thomas Noland, sea - | i Jinan, attached to the ship Missouri, fell from ^iho forward part of that vessel overboard as .she was proceeding to sea, bound to Boston i on Monday before daylight. As nothing could be seen of him after the occurrence, it is feared that he struck the anchor or some other part < of the ship in falling, by which he was ren . dered insensible and was drowned before he , could recover from the effect of the blow. THE VERY COLD and sharp weather which has j been.prevailing at the North and the conse > quent obstruction by ice and other causes of . Northern harbors, has delayed shipments of . produce to this port, und our merchants in . some departments of trade have beer, pre? vented filling orders from the country with that dispatch which is so desirable; but a short . spell of moderate weather, which we are soon ..likely to have, will no doubt bring along the necessary arrivals. EXAMINATION AT CHAUTEST ix COLLEGE.-The ..examination of the Junior, Sophomore and freshman classes of C aar leaton College, was commenced yesterday st the President's room, .. and will be continued for three days longer. The students were subjected to a dose and - searching examination on the different branches they had learned during the past term, and displayed a proficiency that was peculiarly gratifying to the Faculty. Applicants for ad? mission have been directed to apply on Mon? day, the 30th instant, as the Commencement Exercises will be held on the 31st. ^AN INCIDENTAL ADVANTAGE.-The establish? ment of co-operative stores for the middle . classes in England proves to be beneficial, not merely in reducing the money cost of com? modities to the consumer, but it secures the members against adulteration and loss by false weight. And, as the terms are cash down, a customer never receives a bill with a polite re? quest for payment, for which, if he be remark? ably careful, he has preserved a receipt dated several months previously, or which he may remember having paid, sud' destroyed the re? ceipt. These advantages the Pall Mall Gazette considers quite equal to those more commonly . and prominently considered. THE HEROES OF THE BED SHTBT.-One of our ! . .fine companies of firemen-the Charleston Hook 1 sud Ladder Company, No. 2-propose to give a ? . grand Fireman's Ball, on the 27th April, at the . South Carolina Hall. Arrangements are being made to Surround the afluir with all the accessc- ] ries of enjoyment and success, and we doubt not that the occasion will be one worthy of the esprit du corps which characterizes the depart? ment. Whatever our Charleston firemen do- ? whether running to u fire, "hollering Uko mad," drinking lager bier..or standing still- 1 they generally do it with ail their might; and C the evening of the S7tb/bif April will, doubt- J less, witness soma of the most lively- perform? ances with '?the light fantastic toe," that have * . been seen for many a long, long weary day. * . THE CITY SQUABS.-This little green spot ?B in such close proximity to municipal head- \ .quarters that it has never suffered from ne? glect, except during the war when that portion * of the city was abandoned. Thc dead trees * have been removed and new shoots planted; 8 fences were repaired, new shell walks laid, and the grass plats cleaned. This was done last summer, bnt since that timo the thousand 1 husy feet that daily pass through the Square 1 have worn the walks into holes, which retained 1 the water and marred the appearance of the | grounds. Laborers wore busy yesterday in filling up these holes with shells and in re? storing the proper grade to the walks. All j necessary repairs will also be made, and the ( City Square be again the oasis of the Charles- , ton Bialto._ , THE DELEGATE CONVENTION.-The Republi? can voters of the city assembled last evening in their several wards at the usual places, and elected six delegates from each ward to meet the delegates from Berkeley on Thursday, the 26th, at the Military Hall, and there make nominations for county officers. We have re? ceived the following returns: Ward No. 1.-N. G. Parker (white), John M. Adams, W. B. Hovt (white;, Bob't Savage, Jce Green, Joe A. Galliott. Ward No. 2.-E. W. M. Mackey (white), Wm. H.

WHAT IS SAID ABOUT COTTON-THE FEELING AMONG MEBCHANTS, FACTOBS AND PLANTERS BICE FTBM-GENES AL TBADE PROSPECTS SHIPPING-CHABLESTON A PREFERRED MARKET, ETC., ETC. If there be any true thermometer of the com? mercial temperature of the State, it is general? ly to be found on Broad-street and the Bay. When yon see the wharves lined with cotton bales, and knots of workmen busy sewing up the rents, and getting them ready for ship? ment; when you 6ee drays loaded with the staple going to, and loaded with merchandise coming from the ships; when you see the clerks hurrying into the banks and brokers' offices in indefatigable pursuit of "that note;" when you see factors with cotton on their coats, cotton on their whiskers, and cotton in their eyes, von may be pretty sure that everybody has cotton on the brain, and the mercury in the thermometer is up. Such spectacles are com? paratively rare in thetie latter days. Old Charleston, however, holds her own in compo? sion with her Bister cities, and any one pass ng through the business portion of the town resterdav would have felt that there was much >f "Life in the Old Land yet" Conversations here and there reveal the fact hat everybody is hopeful for the future, and oleratly well satisfied that the things of the >resent are no worse. Merchants and factors lave suffered heavily from bad debts, and their kith in human nature grows smaller by de? crees and beautifully less with every day's pub ication of some new name added to the list of )ankrupts. But somehow they manage to hrive themselves, and the stocks on hand are n most cases large and inviting. Money, as we are informed, is more abne? hmt than it was thirty days ago, and is offered it nine and ten per cent, on long investment, it is undoubtedly being hoarded for the par? mase of Buoh securities as may be offered at he Savings' Institution sale next month. What will be done this year in cotton ? This s a question which all men are an/ions to bear answered. Two facts may be definitely stated; iret, that there is a disposition among most planters to put in large crops; secondly, that here is not a disposition among factors to nake such large advances as were made last rear. Unfortunately for both parties the sea ion was bad, and both suffered. The sudden .ire in cotton benefitted neither as a class, once the material could not be held sufficient- : y long to reap the harvest, and both are there- 1 ore now in the slough of despond. This con- : lition of things is well attested by the slow ?ale of guanos, phosphates and other fer tili- ' :ers. The planters absolutely have no money | nth which to buy, and will necessarily be com- < >elled to resort to the use of. ordinary stable 1 nanure, and domestic composts, for the en ichment of their soiL i Doubtless the planter is animated by the i ?ame hopes that stir the hearts of the factor nd merchant. From more than one person, i vhose judgment ia deemed valuable, We yes- < erday heard the prediction that in sixty days 1 rom now, and perhaps in less time,, the price if cotton will advance to thirty cents a pound. ? Lsk the reason of this statement, and you will < >e told that th3 stock on hand has suddenly nd rapidly diminished. The receipts which 1 hree weeks ago afc one port were twelve thou- | and bales, the next week dropped to six thou- < and, and last week to five thousand bales. < fou will also be informed, by the best judges, . hat the highest amount yet to come from louth Carolinais enly about twenty-five thou- i and bales, fifteen thousand of which are in J hat section of the State' west of the Congaree nd Broad Rivers. Again, cotton on the Mis- i isslppi has been hurried to market, while the 1 rices ruled high, lind before the annually ex- t ec ted drought in that region; so that the de- t land in Liverpool for American cottons will e so greatly in excess of the supply that a i light advance there w?l naturally renew the i pecnlative tendency on this side of the Atlan? te. Within a comparatively short period the tock on hand in our Southern ports has ; Iropped from one hundred thousand bales, in , ound numbers, to less than half that amount. ? Chis condition of things, in the language of a < Liverpool correspondent, "has alarmed the , rade, who have been trying to protect them- ? elves by purchases both on the spot and to irrive." , Again, we are told that if there is any policy lalcnlated to increase the tendency to high >rices, it is that now being carried out by the freedman's Bureau in issuing rations to the , ?egroes, thus supporting them in idleness, to ] he great detriment of both the Upland and Sea Island crop. Probably this latter view of he case is that which leads men to predict hat the next crop will not largely exceed 1,500,000 bales. In rice the feeling is finner. But little will )o raised in South Carolina. Governor Aiken hinks that his crop this year will not exceed sight thousand or ten thousand bushels, Ksarcely one-tenth of the crop of former years, [be great competitor of South Carolina nee is he Rangoon rice, which, according to the de? preciation in gold, enables the importer to put t on the market at rates greatly below those it which we can afford to selL With reference to general trade we find mar? iants along the Bay, engaged in furnishing ilantation supplies, materially effected by the Sureau distribution above referred to. Collec? tons are backward, and quite a number of par? ies who were considered good in January, have unce become seriously embarrassed. There is, herefore, a general disposition on the part of 1 .esponsible bouses to confine their business to rash transactions, and it is a matter of fre? inent occurrence that orders from the conn-, ry, when unaccompanied by cash, are, in mili? ar,- parlance, "respectfully returned, disap ?bved." Our wharves present a goodly array of oreign and coastwise shipping, but the un >recedented condition of our cotton maiket actors holding firmly at prices equal to one ?nd a half pence sterling above Liverpool-has mt a stop to nearly all shipments; and freights ire a drug in the market. In this connection, it is a significant fact hat the cotton market of Charleston is so nuch prefened to that of New York or Liver >ool that holders of the staple at all interior joints have changed the destination of their .onsignments, and ore contented to receive the ?andsome proceeds of a domestic sale. THE STREET BRIGADE.-A portion of this force have been assigned to duty in the burnt iistrict, and were industriously engaged yes? terday in filling up the excavated lots and old cellars. The rubbish on the surface will be used for that purpose whenever practicable; the sides of the cellars will also be dug down and a uniform level obtained. The fencing will be placed along King and Queen streets, and wherever the burnt district is intersected by prominent streets. This will be given the same cream tint as that on Meeting-street. "THE BANKES OF THE SOUTH," the new paper published in Augusta, and edited by Father Ryan, the popular Southorn poet, has made its appearance. It is evidently made up with groat care, and the leading articles bear the impress of the genius of the gifted editor. We had Ihe pleasure of meeting Mr. M. J. O'Con? nor, the Agent of the Banner of the South, who is in our city for the purpose of soliciting subscriptions for that journal. We commend him to the courtesy and consideration of our citizens. THE HOSPITALS AND THE BOARD OF HE. -The Board had a lengthy session yest afternoon, in which the reports on the ra rials of the Medical Society and the Tm of the Roper Hospital were read and ado The Roper Hospital now stands alone, t p.opoeitions haTe been rejected, and it i derstood that an order will be issued headquarters directing that the seven t sand dollars heretofore paid by the i to that institution be turned over to city.. If this is enforced it will comp closing of the Hospital, and a treaty has made to rent the building from the Trui for city purposes. The whole matter however, be discussed in Council this ever "WASHINGTON AVENUE."-A number of i lie spirited citizens are considering the 1 ability of opening Washington-street fron present terminus at Laurena-street, on the longation of the same line, to Market-stree or near the corner of East Bay street. It been ascertained that such an opening wi make a wide and commodious avenue from front of the splendid new customhouse bt in g to the Northeastern Railroad depot, t relieving East Bay, which is narrow and cn ed above Society-street, of a portion of it tu crowd of drays and other heavy vehicles. It is not known what property holders wc think of the scheme; but as it must resul enhancing values greatly along the new lint is presumed that their hearty co-operation be relied upon. This is an age of improvement, and, a: the wonderful transformation of Meeti street, by means of a trilling outlay and so work, we look upon the Washington Avei scheme as entirely practicable; and as it is c sidered reasonably certain that some diere table tenants on Hasel-street will have to cleaned out, it may be considered as a desi ble improvement. It is well known that this street is called honor of Colonel William Washington, of I (drst) revolution, as is also Rutledge Aven after the first John Rutledge; and its ext? sion from the Northeastern Railroad Depot East Bay, which is a very fine street, should a step forward, to be taken at the earliest p sible day. MATOE'S COUBT.-The usual number of S ur day night drunks and Sunday headact were reported, and were doctored in the UBI manner. The pockets wera bled to the tu of $5 or $15, as the virulence of the case c m anded. Among the number was one colored womi who was found clasping a lamp-post and coi plaining that the pavement would not kei iown. It took $15 or fifteen days to steai aer nerves. A cow that had rambled to the battery wi urested, and the owner lost both her milk az money, as $5 was demanded for the trespas Two colored chicken thieves who were caugl in the act, were fined $40 and $15 respectively )ne having a stronger claim to notoriety ina aie brother. Two disorderly characters whose braw wore a nuisance to the neighborhood, wei .barged $5 each as a municipal quietus. A colored man who had stolen some of tb jrass work belonging to the Washington ei Tine and had invested the proceeds in a suit < clothes was arrested. His sin had found hil rat and he was sentenced to pay $40 or fort layB at the workhouse. A carriage whose lamps were not trimme md burning was stopped and the owner aake for a Y. Two colored men who wished to emulate th ,-alor shown by the C. S. C.

It was further ordered that the said cases be referred to Master Tupper as a special referee to inquire into and report upon the facts Btated in the pleadings. It was also ordered that the referee advertise the creditors of the said Kalmia Mills and of the said Harvey Cogswell, trustee, come in and prove their claims, and the referee report the amounts.

This will bring in the Northern mail at 8 o'clock, A. M. There will be no change in the hour of the de? parture of the daily Northeastern train, which now leaves at 9 A. M. The alteration in the schedule will doubtless be a welcome one to our mercantile community, as it will give them their Northern correspondence at the opening of each day's business. CBOWDS.-They are coming 1 They are here ! and from every point of the compass they bring the greenbacks with them. Our hotels are reaping a harvest. The lobbies of the Charleston and Mills House last evening was like a scene in an oriental mosque when the pilgrims gather around the shrine. Mer? chants and clerks, officers of the army and navy, foreigners and home people-all sorts and all conditions mingled in the throng, and reminded one of those ante bellum hours when wc used to hob-nob on more gracious subjects than at present titillate the ear. We learn that among the "illustrious great" who are either here or expected to errive shortly are several members of Congress and practiced stump speakers, who propose to participate in the approaching canvass. If this statement be true, and we have the best of reasons for BO announcing it, lively times are ahead, and we shall be treated to a surfeit of freshly manu? factured "treason, strategems and spoils," like oysters "served np in every style." NEOBO EQUALTTY.-There is a restaurant in this city kept by a colored man, which has always been frequented by whites, and the pro? prietor prides himself on his popularity among his customers. He has served his apprentice? ship, and has been long and favorably known by all who indulge in a social glass. Yester? day some colored men entered his bar-room and demanded a drink, but were refused; the reason alleged being that his custom was white, and miscegenation would ruin him. The colored claimants for spiritual equality were very noisy, but a member of the police force being present, he advised them to leave, or they would be compelled to take quar? ters in the workhouse for two months. They thought discretion the better part of valor and departed to seek some more congenial spot where they could slake their thirst. There is little doubt that if an issue had been made, the intruders would have been soon placed hors du combat. The troupe showed their good sense in retiring immediately. THE OPERA LAST NIGHT.-The opera troupe began their brief season last night in a manner that presaged a brilliant success. The subject af Gounod's opera "Faust" is so well known that it is not necessary here to give even a sketch of the plot; but it may be mentioned ;hat its musical treatment by the distinguished Russian composer is such as to task the ener? gies of any company which undertakes its exe? rtion. Full of catching melody, sprinkled prith airs which ring continually in the popular aar, it is characterized by fanciful and peculiar iccompaniments which require the closest ?re and most even balance on the part of the Drchestra, while the harmonies of the concert ad music demand precision and steadiness, as ivell as force, on the part of soloists and morns. The house was crowded, and the company had all the encouragement that can be given by an intelligent and refined audience. Gen ?rally the orchestra was satisfactory, but there tras some confusion occasionally perceptible. Ihe chorus was weak, and, in the third act in particular, showed a sturdy disregard of time, tnne and unity of action that caused the baton >f tho chef to wave in frenzy, and the mous? tache o'f "MephistophileB" to fairly stand on and. Mad. Frederici, aa "Marguerite," carried off the honors of the evening, and was steadily applauded throughout. In the "King of rhule," the "Jewel Song," and the last act she sang particularly well. Himmer as "Faust" was fairly successful, but acted better than be sang. " Mephistophiles '* was some? what hoarse, unfortunately for the "sere? nade" and the song of " Gold. " Clara Lang, as Siebet, was very unobtrusive, and, as she omitted the charming "Flower Song," made no point but fha: of avoiding the possi? bility of failure. The march in the fourth act was vigorously given, the orchestra being supported by the Post Band. As before said, thc performance was, on the whole, very successful, and it is now a certain? ty that the season will bo a decided success. P. S.-At a late hour last night we were in? formed that owing to the indisposition of M'lle Gara Lang, tho opera of "Martha,' which had been announcsd for to-night, will not be given. "Der Freischutz" will be sub? stituted in its place, and on Wednesday even? ing the beautiful opera of the "Magic Flute" will be performed. On both evenings M'lle Frederici will sustain the leading parts.

SUMTER BITTKBS.- The Sumter Bitters of the war touched the North in 1861 and the South from 1861 to 1865, and were generally t?o ferru? ginous in their character as to destroy" the most solid constitution. Tincture of iron in the shape of lamp-post shells and plethoric spherical shot, were familiar and frequent but not welcome, and these days of reconstruction have taken old Sumter in hand and biought forth a new and enduring kind of the famous "bitters." Do wie & Moise the great druggists of Charleston, are the prophets of the new cute for all the ills to which Southern consti? tutions are liable. It is recommended by all who have tried it, and bids fair to rival those famous Northern bitters whose greatest merit lies in perpetual advertising. As soon as Dowie & Moise are fairly under way it ia ex poded their demand for labels will put np the price of paper, and that extm trains and extra ships will be engaged in carrying to the out sido world the famous "Sumter Bitters." BRANCH OFFICE OF THE N ?W YOEE LIFE IN SUBAKCE CtoKPAirx.-BOSTON. January 1,1868. -To the Agents of the Ney York Life Insu? rance Company : The returns to the Insurance Department of Massachusetts, November 1867, but shows a repetition of the experience of last year-that although established in Bos? ton at comparatively a recent period (four years ago), still the arnon it of annual pre? miums received by the Ne?v York Life Insu? rance Company, at their agency in the City of | Boston, by far exceeds the amount returned by any other company doini j business hr the State. This is not only a gratifyin g evidence of the growth of the company's business in this lo? cality, but it shonld also bu taken as a most positive indication of the confidence reposed in the management of the company, by gen? tlemen well qualified to jnlge accurately of such matters. Without desiring to insti'.ute especially in? vidious comparisons with ether companies, most of which are engaged in an exalted and philanthropic labor, contributing greatly to mitigate the peculiar misfortmes of otherwise unprotected widowhood and orphanage, still we are of the opinion, as an expression of the discriminating judgment of so intelligent and conservative a community as this, it is well der serving the careful consideration of communi? ties elsewhere.
