THE CONCERT AT ST. JOSEPH'S CHURCH.-The
? concert last night, at St. Joseph's Church, An
son-street, was completely successful, and the
building was crowded to excess. As was ex?
pected, the singers and musicians acquitted
themselves charmingly, and it is hoped that
the result will be a substantial help for the
good purpose for which tho concert was de?
signed.
BEDDCTION or INSURANCE-IMPORTANT AN?
NOUNCEMENT.-A telegram was received yester?
day from Bentley D. Hasell, Esq., the general
.agont of the South Carolina Railroad Company
in New York, announcing that the rates of in?
surance by the New York and Charleston
Steamship Company's line has been reduced to
three-fourths of one per cent. This reduction
V- will be of great assistance in enabling our
. steamship lines to ward off and defy competi
. i iou by Savannah and Portsmouth.
THE SCHOOLUASTZB ABROAD.-The ''Superin?
tendent of Education,*' appointed by the con?
vention, will have a wide field for operations in
. some of the rural "deestricts.",
An order was received by a well kiown drug?
gist in this city a few days since, calling,
among other articles, for "J gal of alker oil and
. some sent to sent the same.'' It took some
time and some search among tho numerous
-bottles before the idea of alcohol was suggeat
? ed. On examining the order, this proved to be
-the desired article, as the writer wished to ob
,-tain certain ingredients for the manufacture
of hair grease, and the "alker oil," castor oil
.and the "sent" were to be used for that pur
,pose._
ABBIST- OF PASTIES SUSPECTED OF OBSTBCOT
ENQ THE WlEXrS GTON AND MANCHISTEB RAXL
BOAD.-The Wilmington Journal of Wednes?
day saya: "A detective from Charleston,
specially charged with this duty, made the ar
ireatof a white man named Daniel M. Elkins,
at Peacock's Station, Columbus county, on
??"Sunday last, on suspicion of being one of the
parties who recently placed obstructions on
the track of the Wilmington and Manchester
Railroad. On the following day (Monday) a
negro named Wesley Carter was also arrested
by this officer at Cartersville, S. C., for alleged
> complicity in tbs same offence. Both parties
>~ swere brought to this city yesterday and lodged
in the military guardhouse. They left here
?last night under guard for Charleston, where
they will be tried. A severe penalty has been
: attached to this offence by special order of
?General Canby."
SABOENT THE ILLUSIONIST.-Notwithstanding
the disagreeable weather, the South Carolina
Hall was well filled last night, the low price of
: admission and the extra inducements offered be?
ing sufficient to draw a large audience. Those
? of our citizens who had seen Sargont on his last
- visit, were prepared to witness a good necro?
mancer, and their expectations were fully re?
alized. His tricks of sleight of hand and
ventriloquism, were perfect and equal to those
?o? any of the magicians who have appeared m
Charleston, in addition to the usual attrac?
tions of such an exhibition, Mr. Sargent had
a gravid gift drawing, which took place at the
<close of the entertainment. Some of the prizes
? awarded were quite valuable, and one of them
. a cottago set of furniture, was drawn by a
young gentleman of Charleston, Mr. A. McD.
Wragg. Professor Sargent will give another
of his popular entertainments to-night.
OLD BOBEAS was on a high old rampage yes?
terday, and succeeded in throwing dust in the
? eyes of all whose business called them in the
streets. Some futile attempts were made to
water Broad-street, but the experiment proved
to be a failure and was soon abandoned. The
March wind3 had full possession of the streets,
and as if aware of their approaching end, tried
to create as much excitement as possible.
. ("rmoline was at a discount, and even the'
sterner sex were forced to bend before the
blast and fly to the cars for refuge. By night
the force of the wind iucreased, and the dole
fal creaking and slamming of the shutters and
the sudden gusts that shook the houses beto?
kened a storm somewhere in the direction of
the "Big Nor'ard." East winds are generally
'disagreeable, but the breeze of last night was
one of the strongest zephyrs of the season.
BEAL ESTATE SALES.-Mr. James L. Gantt
..sold yesterday, for James Tupper, Esq., Mas?
ter in Equity,

the north side of Market-street, measuring iu
fr^it on Market-street thirty feet by fifty-seven

ance in one and two years.
A Carions Commission in Columbia.
Ono of the most curiou? courts of inquiry
held in this State since the war, is now in ses?
sion in Columbia. Charges having been made
by negroes in the convention and among the
public, against Major T. B. Lee, the superin?
tendent of tho penitentiary, to the effect that
the treatment of tho convicts under his charge
was cruel and inhuman, General Canby insti?
tuted a formal investigation to satisfy himself
I with reference to the truth or falsity of the
allegations.
I The court consists of Colonels\Judd and
Guenther, and Lieutenant Chester. It assem?
bled on Tuesday morning, and witnesses for
the government were called. Beverly Nash
testified that he had heard "things," but on
going t brough tho institution found that both
races were treated alike. T. J. Bobertson said
he bad signed tho petition in the convention
praying for the removal o' "Tj. Lee, and the
appointment of W. B. Bose, che delegate from
York, because he (Robertson) was a "Jack?
sonian in principle," and as the Republican
party would control South Carolina, he believ?
ed that to the victor belonged the spoils.
Therefore he wanted a man in the penitentiary
of his own politics.
Robertson further slated that he knew
nothing objectionable in the administration of
the penitentiary; had visited it twice and been
favorably impressed with tho cleanliness and
fine appearance of the convicts, and the
system and good order which prevailed. Jack
Knox, a negro, swore point-blank that more
than a year ago he saw prisoners abused. Ho
was very definite about the time, and certain
with regard to the event; but the records of the
institution will show that no convicts had
been received at that period, and until a con?
siderable time thereafter. Another negro swore
that he saw a prisoner knocked down. He '
was pressed for the name, and after thinking a
while said it was "Jaca Gridiron." No such
euphonious or culinary name was ever beard
within the walls of the penitentiary.
Such is a type of the testimony being intro?
duced by Beverly Nash and his white and black
copartners for the purpose of making political
capital and destroying the effectiveness of
one of the best and best conducted institutions
in the Southern States. The whole thing is a
farce from beginning to end-in other words
"impeachment" boded down in a black and
dirty pot.
The question now pending is whether con?
vict testimony shall be introduced, and Major
Lee. desirous of allowing the widest latitude
to the investigation, has given his assent to
the proposition. It is proper to add that the
officers of the court are acting with great im?
partiality, and it is believed will render an
opinion based upon justice and truth, without
regard to the political questions which under?
lie the whole matter.
Every member of the convention who signed
the petition for the removal of Major Lee and
the appointment of W. B. Rose, has been sum?
moned as a witness. Mr. Mackey writes beg?
ging to be excused on account of business,
and because be does not know anything about
the matter. N. G. Parker says he signed the
petition to accommodate a friend, and has no
evidence to give. Such is the general run of
letters received. What the convicts will say
remains to be seen; but it will not strike the
great public as singular that the Radicals have
been compelled to resort to t est imo ny of this
character.
The next step in the programme-that is as
Boon as the leg?ilature -have met and removed
the present superintendent, who knows as little
about politics as any mau in the State-will be
to appoint a negro guard, the reason assigned
being that the co lored element in the peniten?
tiary is largely in the excess.
THE CHARLESTON- COLLEGE EXAMINATION was
concluded on yesterday, and, after the annual
commencement, the students will be allowed a
couple of weeks of rest from their arduous
studies. The Freshman, Sophomore and
junior classes were examined in all the various
departments, orally and in writing, and ac?
quitted themselves in a style highly creditable.
The course of studies embraced the classics :
rhetoric, logic, astronomy, come sections,
philology and moral philosophy, in all of
which the students were subjected to a rigid
examination. We noticed particularly the im?
provements in the study of the classics, made
under the excellent supervision of Dr. Li. A.
Frampton and Rev. Prof. J. W. Miles, fhe
logical analysis is a decided improvement on
the old style of parsing, and undoubtedly a
greater assistance to the correct rendition of
the text. The Sophomore classes evinced a
thorough acquaintance with the science of
languages, and showed a rare degree ot re?
search into the origin of the English. The
College has been financially depressed for
some time, but the City Conned have deter?
mined to uphold it, and we trnst that the in?
stitution may enjoy a long career of usefulness
and prosperity.
GERMAN FLUE COMP ANT.-GOLD WATCH PRE?
SENTED TO EX-PRESIDENT S TRIMMER MIN". -An
extra meeting of tho German Fire Company
was called last evening, for the purpose of pre?
senting a gold watch to Mr. A. Steimmerman,
ex-President of the company, as a tribute of
esteem for the valuable services rendered by
him while in command.
The ex-President was waited upon by a com?
mittee and requested to honor the company
with his presence. On his arrival he was
received with three rousing cheers. The
watch, a handsome gold time-keeper, pur?
chased from the well-known jeweller, Mr. P.
Koldewey, was then presented, in a handsome
speech, by vice-President J. Behr. Mr. Steim?
merman was very much overcome by this evi?
dence of tho esteem in which he waa held by
his comrades, and could make but a brief re?
ply. This was ?received with repeated cheers.
A magnificent punch, prepared by Messrs.
H. Badenhop <fc Co., was then discussed, many
toasts offered, and the merri me ut kept up until
a late hour.
The following is the inscription upon the
watch : "Presented to ex-President A. Steim?
merman by the Gorman Fire Company, March
26,1868."_
THE CITT TBEASURT.-A few months since
the general cry waa "no money," and the city
exchequer contained nothing but city scrip,
which was then jelling at considerably below
par. A change has come over the spirit of our
dreams, city mo ley is near par, and the song
of the greenback is heard agaiu in the land.
The tax-payers have been raising the wind
and laying down the dust, snd, for the past
few days, the treasurer's office has been be
Bigedbya crowd of eager debtors. The day
of grace closes on the 31st, and the rush has
lately been so great that the principle of "first
come first served" has been adopted, the last
arrivals being compelled to wait their turn
patiently. According to the municipal laws
a capitation tax is now levied on every male
citizen, and the receipt will have to be pro?
duced at tho polls, or the voter will be debar?
red the right of depositing MB ticket. This
fact is generally known, and yesterday the
City Treasurer's office was largely attended,
and greenbacks were abundant, and the own?
ers were anxious to redeem their credit by
making the necessary returns.
Of course, it is well to make hay while the
sun shines, but, as the city taxes are now pay?
able three times a year, the money received
now must be made to hold out for at least
three months to come.
Tnx BILLIARD MATCH_Tho match last
night between Mr. Godfrey rind Mr. Butler
was won by the former, the score standing at
the close : Butler 1288, and Godfrey 1500. The
match was for 1500 points, Butler giving his
adversary 600. The highest run made was 102
by Butler, and thc highest made by Godfrey
was 47.
A match game of one thousand points will
bo played on Saturday between Mr. Butler and
Pugg. * _

MAXTOR'S COURT.- -One more unfortunate, who
had sold spirituous fluids without the knowl?
edge or consent of the city, was fined $100 for
imposing on the good nature of the city fa?
thers.
An individual who took thc last drop and
then turned his tumbler upside down, became
so affected at the result that he was taken to
the guardhouse for medical advice. Ho was
treated a la "Sangrado," and his pocket bled
to the tune of $15.
The same party had dreamed of wars and
rumors of wars, and carried a derringer in or?
der to bc ready for thc fray, but his weapon
was discovered and confiscated, and the owner
charged $100 for bis concealed ornament.
A publican, whose anger had waxed hot and
caused him to smite one of his customers, was
charged $25 for the assault, and $100 for keep?
ing a disorderly house.
A black and white Newfoundland dog was
picked up estray on East Bay, and the owner
charged $2 for not keeping him at home.
A cow and horse, found roarning through
the streets, were taken to the city stable and
the owners charged $5 each for the attention
that had been paid their beasts.

FINANCIAL.-Mr. Andrew M. Moreland adver?
tises in to-day's NEWS the sum of thirty thou?
sand dollars to loan. In these hard times,
whon every one is trying to raise the wind,
such an offer Btould not be neglected.
McKay & CAMPBELL will sell, at 10 A. M.,
a large assortment of glazed tinsel, white and
drab leghorn bonnets, turbans and hats, and
the entire furniture of a family leaving the
city; also, a large lot of crockery, tinware, har?
ness, &c._
Ho ! FOB MAGNOLIA.- The return of spring
and the smell of the jessamine have induced
many persons to visit the different suburban
retreats in our vicinity. Messrs. R. Graham &
Co. have commiserated the pedestrians who
were compelled to plod through miles of dust
before they could reach the desired haven, and
have decided to run a line of omnibuses be?
tween Magnolia and the King-street terminus
of the City Railroad at stated hours. This
will be a great convenience to our citizens, and
Messrs. Graham & Co. will no doubt receive a
liberal patronage. For full particulars as to
time of starting, &c, see their advertisement
in another column.
PLANTING RICE BY MACHINEBY.-SUCCESS OF
THE RICE PLANTING MACHINES MANUFACTURED
BY MESSES, RASON & Bao., OF THE DOTTEBEB
PATENT.-It gives ua pleasure to state that the
rice planting interest of this Stato is greatly
benefitted by tho introduction of labor-saving
machines, and more especially those of home
manufacture. We are shown letters irom
prominent planters oi Savannah River, now us?
ing the Dotterer Rico Planter, speaking in
terms of the highest praise and recommenda?
tion. Lettors from Pee Dee planters state that
these machines give great satisfaction,
trenching and hoeing the rice well, aud are by
far superior to any other machine. Quite a
large number have been sold, and certificates
of the most flattering kind havo been sent to
the manufacturers by planters usiug them. It
only goes to prove that machinery can be work?
ed in the rice culture and thc planter be there?
by rendered somewhat independent of negro
labor. It is a great saving to the planter, as
each machine saves seventeen hands, and gives
a more certain turn out of the crop. One com?
mon-sized mule works it, making four
trenches and sewing seed in the same opera?
tion. The driver rides on the machine. The
Dotterer Planter is very light and streng, and
is said by competent judges to bo the best
machine ever introduced, and goes far ahead
of anv Northern mauufacture. [Advt.

SUPER-PHOSPHATE OF LIME

AWARDED TO FERTILIZERS
AT THE FAIR OF THE
American Institute,
HELD AT NEW YORK, OCTOBER, 1867.
rp HE EXAMINING COMMITTEE ON FEBTTU
J_ ZEBS at this Fair reported as follows; "Entry
No. 298-FEBTTLIZ ER8 manufactured by the Map ts'
Super-Phosphate of Limo and Guano Company are
decidedly first in order of merit The IMPROVED'
SUPER-PHOSPHATE ls the best article of its class
known to the judges, while the NTTBOGENTZED ia
fully equal to tho best rr aaufaerured. These Fertili?
zers are entitled to a first premium, as they are far
superior to all others in the Exhibition."
Analysis of Mapee' Nitrogenized Super-Phosphate

NITROGENIZED SUPEB-PHOS?
PHATE OF LIME.
THE PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE GIVEN BELOW
of plauters during the past season, fully establish
all the advantages claimed for this well-known FEB
1ELLZER:
Received the highest premium awarded to Fertil?
izers by the American Institute of New York, held
October, 1867.
For full report with analysis made by the Com?
mittee of the Institute, composed of Dr. C. E. BUCE,
Professor J. G. POULE, and other prominent Chem?
ists, see pamphlets.
The dU?nguished feature of thia SUPEB-PHOS?
PHATE from other similar Fertilizers ls, that all oj
itt ingredients are of animal origin, and are either
soluble in voter, or m a condition to quickly become
soluble in the soil and be taken up by the crop.
Contains no inert or mineral materials.
The proper relative proportion of the ingredients
in MAP ES' SUPEB-PHOSPHATE to meet there
quirements of the Cotton crop on Georgia and South
carolina soils, is fully proved by the experience of
planters who testified that wherever applied, even to
land noted for rusting cotton, the disease is entirely
corrected, and a healthy, vigorous growth produced.
On the same land Peruvian Guano and other fertil?
izers have failed to secure a healthy growth.
EXPORTS FBOK PLANTEES, 1867.
For Letter* in full tee Descriptive Pamphlet.
Dr. E. M. Borau? Christ Church Pariah, writes:
Applied at the rate of 150 to 200 pounds per acre on
11th April, on 22 acres blue clay land, a good deal
worn from being planted in cotton from 1857 to 1867,
with only one year's rest during that time, and not?
withstanding the long continued cold and heavy rain,
and galcj during tho spring and summer, about the
first of September the crop on this field was estima?
ted by some of our beat Judges to promise a yield of
180 to 200 pounds fine Sea island Cotton Lint to the
acre. Notwithstanding the ravages of the caterpillar,
the first cotton picked waa from the field on which
MAPES' PHOSPHATE was used, and it has made
about 65 pounds to the acre, while no other man?
ured hind made over 45 pounds. Has used MAPES'
PHOSPHATE on melons, potatoes and the garden
with satisfactory results.
THOMAS 8. SALTES, Washington County, Ga.,re?
ports that seventy-five pounds per acre on old land
Increased both the Cotton and the Corn three-fold,
considers it far more economical than Peruvian
Guano.
Dr. E. PASSONS, Sanders ville, Washington County
Ga., says:
"My observation is that MAPES' SUPEB-PHOS?
PHATE is a preventive against rust in Cotton.
Has about doubled the Cotton and trebled the Corn.
B as done better than Peruvian Guano per pound."
J. W. SCOTT, of same section, reports:
"That his crop manured with Peruvian Guano was
far more effected by drought aod excessive rains
than where MAPES' SUPEB-PHOSPHATE was used.
Shall use MAPES' in preference to any fertilizer he
has seen used by his neighbors."
W. H. SPARKS, Patenton, Ga., reports:
"On land about bah covered with sedge, and
which had not been cultivated in two years, when
tho manure was put on, badly manured, crop would
yield two pounds where the unmanured would yiel 1
one."
B. B. HAMILTON, A men CUS, Ga,, reports:
"Obtained the most satisfactory results from
MAPES' SUPEE-PHOaPHATE, applying it as a top
dressing. Coneldored to have bid tho beat garden
this year in southwestern Georgia."
W. J. ANDEHSON, Fort Valley, Ga., reports:
"MAPEs' s U f ER-P HO SP HA TE has doubled the
crop of cotton In every case reported, and some re?
port it has more than doubled their crop. On wheat
and oats the results are veiy satisfactory."
D. A. WABNOCK. Beach Branch, S. C., reports:
"On land which always rusted cotton, increased
the crop twofold; ss fine cotton as he hos seen this
year. Prevented rust Four rows unmanured rust?
ed in August Everything the MAPES' SUPER?
PHOSPHATE was tried on did well. Cotton stood
the cold weather In Spring; kept perfectly green,
and growed finely; has beat Peruvian Guano in bis
neighborhood. Believes it to be the BEST Manure
now in use."
E. B. LILES, LileavUle, AUEOU County, N. C., re?
ports:
"As compared with Peruvian Guano and Baugh's
Super-Phosphate, the result waa decidedly in favor
of MAPES' SUPHER-PHOSPHATE; attributed, be
youd doubt to the fact that the ravages of the rust
were not by a marked difference, so severe where it
was applied as where the other manures were."
JAMES MCMEEXIN, Alston, S. C., reports:
"Used a ton of Peruvian, and found the result but
one half as compared with those from MAPES'
SUPER-PHOSPHATE. Soil mostly sandy, with clay
subsoil. Marked difference in the size of the bolls,
in favor of MAPES' SUPEB-PHOSPHATE On Cot?
ton plants the increased growth was about 100 per
cent"
JOHN B. HAXB, Mims, S. C. :
"Cotton was more vigorous and healthy, and ma?
tured at least two weeks earlier where MAPES'
SLPEE-PHOSPHATE was used as compared with
other Fertilizers applied. MAPES' sUPEB-PHOs
PHATE produced lu? pounds per acre more Cotton
than Rhodes' Super-Phosphate, and 50 pounds per
acre more than Soluble Pacific Guano. Same quan?
tity of each. 150 pounds, used to tho acre, cultivated
in tho same manner. MAPES' SUPEB-PHOSPHATE
more than doubled the yield of Cotton."
B. S. YENNING, Christ Church Partsh, S. C., re?
pot ts:
"One application, 200 pounds MAPES' SUPER?
PHOSPHATE, per acre, made the cotton grow to the
height of six feet, where it grew only two feet the
year before. Considers MAPEs' sUPER-PHOs
PHATE the best Fertilizer for SEA ISLAND COT?
TON, and would safely recommend lt to all plant?
ers."
8. C. MEANS, Spartanburg, S. C., writes:
"Used 240 pounds per acre, applied May 18th. Can
safely say never saw a mote vigorous growth impart
ed to cotton from thc use of any manure. Satisfied
the use of MAPEs' SUPEK-PHOSPHAT? pays hand
somolv,"
Rev. W. A. MEEBTWETHEB, Valle Crucis, neur Co?
lumbia, S. C., reports:
"MAPEs' SUPER-PHOSPHATE has given perfect
satisfaction, and that it permanently improves the
soil Has no hesitation in saying it is the special
manure tor thc turnip and Irish potato."
P. C. PENDLETON, Valdoston,Ga., writes:
-MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE has exceeded my
most sanguine expectations. The effects of its use
on Corn, Peas sud Garden Vegetables was most
marked. If it can be always Kept up to the stan?
dard it must take the pieference of all fertilizers in
use."
BL B. HUNTEE, Quitman, Ga., reports:
"Applied at the rate of 150 pound? per acre upon
every alternate four rows. The result was truly as?
tonishing. The manured rows yielded tully double
the neighboring alternate rows."
