THE DAILY NEWS
US' LAE-iEsT CI EMULATION.-TEE DAILY
SEWS BEING THE NEWSPAPER OFFICIALLY
RE COGNEZ ED AS HAVING THB LARGEST CIR?
CULATION IN THE CITY OF CHARLESTON,
PUBLISHES THE LIST OF LETTERS REMAIN?
ING IN THE POSTOFFICE AT THE END OF
EACH WEEK, ACCORDING TO THE PROVIS?
IONS OF THE NEW POSTOFFICE LAW.
LOCAL MATTERS.
A SCREW LOOSE.-The Northern mail failed
yesterday morning. A failure so soon after
ihc inauguration of the new schedule is a bad
omen for regularity in tho future.
THE RT. REV. DB. P?RSICO will prer.cli at the
Cathedral Chapel, Queen-street, to-morrow
evening, at seven o'clock. Subject. "The Su?
premacy of the Pope.''
THE REV. C. C. PTNCKNIY will deliver a lec?
ture before che Young Men's Christian Asso?
ciation to-morrow evening, at 7? o'clock, in
Grace Church, Weutworth-street. An invita?
tion is extanded to all, but especially young
people, to attend.
CHEAP STANDARD NOVELS.-From Russell's,
King-street, we havo a number of Scott's and
Dickens' novels, in the new and beautifully
printed cheap edition, which the Appletons are
now publishing. These comprise Ivanhoe,
Kenilworth, Guy Mannering, David Copper
f. field, Old Curiosity Shop, Sketches by Boz, and
the Tale of Two Cities. The work of the great
masters of fiction is rendered doubly delightful
by such typography as that of the Ap*)letons.
THE CITADEL AND GEOUNDS.-The long prom?
ised improvements on the Citadel Green were
inaugurated yesterday. Several wagons were
upon the main walk empytying their loads of
oyster shells, which will soon be sectored
along the walks. The green is also to be re?
constructed, and will be sown with grass seed
at an early day. A few shade trees planted
near the fence would be a great improvement
. -to the appearance of the green.
THROUGH FREIGHTS AT Low BATES.-Messrs.
Ravenel & Co., agents of the Leary line, ad?
vertise in the Augusta papers that they will re?
ceive and carry cotton from this port to New
York for $1.50 per bale, free of drayage and
commissions. The low price asked should in?
duce the planters from the interior to come
down with their bales and help the metropolis
of the State by keeping her coastwise steamers
well freighted._
THE CO-OPE BATTYE STORE.-The grocery
store of the Palmetto Pioneer Co-operative As?
sociation is now open at No. 107 Market-street,
and, by au advertisement in another column,
it will be seer, that the patronage of the public
is invited.
The weekly instalments of members will be
Vreceived by the storekeeper at the store dur?
ing the week, and by the treasurer ou Satur?
day.
Music AT THE CHARLESTON HOTEL.-The Post
Baud discoursed some of their sweetest strains
last night, from the upper piazza of the
Charleston Hotel. The night was threatening, .
but the music drew a large outside audience,
and the opposite side of the street was lined
three deep with unbleached citizens of African 1
descent. 1
REMOVAL OP FEDERAL DEAD.-Tho steamer ,
Ajax is engaged in the transportation of the j
remains of United Stales soldiers from various (
points to the new Union Cemetery at Beaufort. ,
On a late trip the Ajax carried to that place ,
the bodies of seven hundred and forty Union 1
soldiers, which had been disinterred from the j
vicinity of Savannah. The remains of at least 1
. " one thousand more will be similary transferred j
in a few days.
THE ASPHALTCM PAVEMENT.-Captain Haber- 1
nicht, the contractor for the new asphaltnm ?
? sidewalk, has determined to give it an extra 1
'touch, and yesterday the laborers were busily
engaged in tarring the pavement and then '
. covering it with a coat of gravel. The tar will
hide all inequalities, and combined with the 1
gravel, will render the new sidewalk hard, firm 1
and durable. Captain Habernichi designs 1
applying a coat of tar to the entire pavement,
and though travel will be impeded for a time, ?
the result attained will be satisfactory here- ?
dafter to all who have occasion to promenade .
that portion of Meeting-street.
. SARGENT, THE ILLUSIONIST.-The "Wizard of '
. the South" was greeted with an overwhelming '
house last night, many being refused admit- '
. tance on account of the crowded condition of the 1
hall. Sargent has proved himself to be a ver?
itable necromancer, as he not only astonishes ?
his audience by his tricks of legerdemain. '
but delights them with his presents. He will 1
.continue his entertainment for a few days 1
longer to allow those who have not yet visited
him a chance to see his wonderful perform- '
- anees. 1
P. E. Kane, of the Victoria Hotel, was the
lucky man who last night won the prize of
forty dollars in greenbacks offered by Profes- '
. sor Sargent. Who will be the nest man for a 1
. similar prize ? 1
A NEW BEOOM SWEEPS CLEAN.-Since the
new Mayor came into office the court room has 1
been crowded every morning with a promiscu- 1
ons assembly of whites and blacks, while the (
.corners of Meeting and Broad streets have
been similarly occupied. An order was issued
in court a few days since that an examination 1
of these idlers would be held, and those who c
-could give no good account of themselves c
would be treated as vagrants. This fulmina?
tion from the powers that be bad the effect of *
thinning the audience that daily attend this 1
court, and the popular street corners wore E
proportionately deserted. Yesterday, however, *
a number of persons collected in the court
room to witness the proceedings, but were
thunderstruck, when leaving, to find a sentinel I
J*at thc door, who prevented their exit. They
were called up separately and questioned by th c
May or aa to their business, means of livUhood, f,
and why they had attended the court. About
a dozen could not give satisfactory answers
and were sent to the workhouse for periods va- j
rying from one to three days. They were ex?
tremely disconcerted, and those who could r,
raise the money paid their way out immediate
ly. These crowds have been an intolerable <
nuisance for some time, and the action of the
Mayor is warmly commended.

HAIL! ALL HAIL!-The clouds that lowere
o'er our city last night were occasionally ilion
ined by brilliant flashes of lightning wbic
only served to make the darkness visible, whil
tho distant muttering of thunder portended
coming storm. About half-past 9 P. M. th
expectations of the weather-wise were lealizcc
and the citizens were treated to a genuine au
thenticated old fashioned " bail^stormT* Th
first bail stones that fell were about the size o
a pigeon's egg, but they soon dwindled in sizi
until the storm terminated iu a heavy rain. I
is somewhat unusual to have a hail storm a
this season, though our venerable friend Mille:
has stated in his almanac that March woulc
close " stormy and disagreeable."
IMPORTANT TO TAX-PAYERS. -THE CAPITA
HON TAX MUST BE PAID.-We have befon
alluded to the urgent necessity that existed
for at once paying the capitation tax. Without
the receipt showing its payment, the voter maj
be disqualified and disabled from depositing
his ballot. The Mayor has ordered all capita?
tion tax returns not paid on or before the Sis!
of March to be reported to bim, and double
tax executions and summary process will cer?
tainly follow.
Owners of real estate are also reminded that
the tax on one-third of the assessed value oj
all real estate must be paid before the 1st
April_
A HORRIBLE MURDER was committed las!
week in Edgefield District, of which wo gel
the following account from the Adver?
tiser : On the night of Wednesday, tho 18th
instant, Mrs. Elkins, a married lady living
in the Dark-Corner section of our District,
was most barbarously murdered. Mrs. Elk?
ins was still a young woman, the mother
of three small children, the youngest an
infant of five months. We are informed
that Mr. Wm. Elkins, the husband and father,
who is a maimed Confederate soldier, was ab?
sent from home, at the time this murder was
committed, on a visit to an uncle living in the
neighborhood. And that when he returned to
bis home, at 10 o'clock t ' light, the unfortu?
nate man found the deao. ?ody of his wife lying
in the yard, the face and head most horribly
srushed and shattered as if by blows from an
axe or heavy iron shovel. And that in the ab?
sence of her husband, no one remained with
Mrs. Elkins save ber children and tho nurse
>f her infant, the latter a young colored girL
The whole affair, however, is as as yet involved
in much mystery. The citizens of the neighbor?
hood are on the alert to unravel the mystery
ind bring the perpetrator or perpetrators to
|ustice. On Saturday last, seven negroes, six
men and one woman, the nurse above men?
tioned, if we mistake not, were brought from
Dark-Corner and lodged in the jail of this
town. The gentlemen who brought these
negroes are Messrs. J. S. Cartledge, S. C.
Cartledge, W. R. Parks, A. C. Parks, N. M.
Cartledge, and J. P. Sharpton.
MAYOR'S COURT.-Friday was certainly an
unlucky day tor the city treasury, as few de?
linquents were arraigned, and the fines im
posed were quite small.
Two colored men, who were charged with
disorderly conduct and trespassing on the
premises of certain citizens, were each charged
(10, or given the option of spending ten days
in the workhouse.
One individual, who hal partaken of the
jood-night cup, thought that he would make
his bed in the streets, but bis slumbers were
rudely interrupted by the pob'ce, and he was
charged $5 for trespassing on city property.
A stranger, who endeavored to puff his cigar
>n Union wharf, was arrested and charged $5
for his fumigation.
A stray cow was picked up in the Upper
Wards and lodged in the guardhouse. Two
colored men appeared to claim their beast, but
vere informed that the ransom had been placed
it $5, and if that was not forthcoming they
vould drink no milk in their coffee that night.
A colored man, who had falsely charged Mr.
Eberhardt with selling liquor without a
ioense, was convicted of perjury and turned
iver to a magistrate for prosecution.

THE LORDS OF CREATION could pass a few
hours very pleasantly in examining tho tailor?
ing stock of Mr. John Rugheimer, at No. 141'
King-street, near Queen. Mr. Rugheimer bas
recently returned from a business visit North,
and has secured every fabric that can please
the eye or make the wearer a "new man." His
store has been fitted up with great taste, but
the external adornings are completely eclipsed
by the stock displayed on the counter. Tho
store has been recently fitted up for Mr. Rug?
heimer, and the shelving, window shades, ?fcc,
are perfectly new-the latter were furnished
by Mr. Nordall, and painted in a pleasing man?
ner. There are few stores on King-street that
present a more attractive appearance than Mr.
Rugheimer's, and all who need a good outfit
should pay him a visit.
A FULL CHOIR OF CA?AROS FOR SALE.

NITROGENIZED SUPER-PHOS?
PHATE OF LIME.
rriHE PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE GIVEN BELOW
JL of planters during the past seaeon, fully establish
all the advantages claimed for this well-known FEE
1LLLZER:
? Received the highest premium awarded to Fertil?
izers by the American Institute of New York, held
October, 1867.
For lull report, with analysis made by the Com?
mittee of the Institute, composed of Dr. C. E. BUCK,
Professor J. G. POHLE, and other prominent chem?
ists, seo pamphlets.
Tho distinguished feature of thia SUPER-PHOS?
PHATE from other similar Fertilizers is, that ali oj
its ingredient? are of animal origin, and are either
soluble in water, or in 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 MAPES' S t 'PER-PHOaPHATE to meet the re?
quirements of the Cotton crop on Georgia and South
Caro ina soils, is fully proved by the experience ot
planters who testified that wherever applied, even to
land noted for rusting colton, the disease is entirely
corrected, and a healthy, vigor?os growth produced.
On thc same land Peruvian Guano and other fertil?
izers have failed to secure a healthy growth.
BEPOBTS FBOH PLANTEES, 1867.
For Letters in full see Daeripttve Pamphlet.
Dr. E. M. BQY.T.T,, Christ Church Parish, writes:
Applied at the rate of 160 to 200 pounds per acre on
11th April, on 22 acres blue elsy land, a good deal
worn from being planted in cotton from 18S7 to 1867,
with only one year's rest during that time, and not?
withstanding the long continued cold and heavy rain,
and gales during the spring and summer, about the
first of September the crop on this field was estima?
ted by some of our best 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 was from the field on which
M APES' PHOSPHATE was used, and it bas made
about 65 pounds to the acre, while no other man?
ured land made over 46pounds. Han used MAPEd'
PHOSPHATE on melons, potatoes and the garden
with satisfactory results.
THOMAS S. SALTER, Washington County, Gs.,re?
ports that seventy-five pounds per sere on old land
increased both the Cotton and the Corn three-fold.
Considers it far more economical than Peruvian
Guano.
Dr. E. PABSOUS, Sandersvllle, Washington County
Ga,., says:
"My observation ls that MAPES' SUPER-PHOS?
PHATE is a preventive against rust in Cotton.
Has about doubled the Cotton and trebled the Corn.
Bas done better than Peruvian Guano per pound."
J. W. SCOTT, of same section, reports:
"That his crop manured vi th Peruvian Guano was
far more effected by drought and excessive rains
than where MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE was used.
Shall use MAPES' in preference to any fertilizer he
has seen used by his neighbors."
W. H. SPARKS, fcatonton. Ga,, reports:
"On land about half covered with sedge, and
which bad not been cultivated in two years, when
the m an uro was put on, badly manured, crop would
yield two pounds where the unman or ed would yiell
one."
B. B. HAMILTON, Americcs, Ga., reports:
"Obtained the most satisfactory reBults from
MAPES' SUPEE-PHOAPHATE, applying it as a top
dressing. Considered to have had the best garden
this year in Sc nth western Georgia."
W. J. ANDERSON, Fort Vslley.Ga., reports:
"MAPEb' SUPER-PHOSPHATE has doubled the
crop of cotton ba every case reported, and some re?
port it bas more than doubled their crop. On wheat
and oats the results are very satisfactory."
D. A. WARNOCK. Beach Branch, S. C., reports:
"On land which always rusted cotton, increased
the crop twofold; IB flr.o cotton ss he has seen this
year. Prevented rust Ferr 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 boat Peruvian Ouana in bis
neighborhood. Believes it to be the BEST Manure
now m use."
E. E. LILES, L?esv?lo, Anson County, N. C., re?
ports:
"As compared with Peruvian Guano and Baugh's
Super-Phosphate, the reec.lt was decidedly in favor
of MAPES* SUPHER-PHOSPH ATE ; attributed, be?
yond doubt, to the fact that the ravages of the nut
were not, by a marked difference, so severe where ii
was applied as where the other manures were."
JAMES MOMFETTTN, Alston, S. C., repor|s:
"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,
ba favor of MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE, On Cot?
ton plants the increased growth waa about 100 per
oent"
JOHN B. HI IR, Mime, S. O.:
"Cotton waa more vigorous sad healthy, and ma?
tured at least two weeks earlier where MAPES'
SUPER-PHOSPHATE was used ss compared with
other Fertilizers applied. MAPES' bCPEE-PHO?
PH ATE produced loo pounds per sere more Cotton
than Rhodes' Super-Phosphate, and 60 pounds per
sore moro than Soluble Pacific Guano. Same quan?
tity of each, ISO pounds, used to the sere, cultivated
In the same manner. MAPES' b UP EE-PHOSPHATE
more than doubled the yield of Cotton."
B. 8. VENNZKO, Christ Church Parish, 8. C., re?
ports: _
"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' ti UP EE-PHOS?
PHATE the best Fertilizer for SEA ISLAND COT?
TON, end would safely recommend it to all plant?
ers."
8. C. MEANS, Spartanburg, S. C., writes:
"Used 240 pounds per acre, applied May 18th. Can
safely nay never saw a more vigorous growth impart
ed to cotton from the use of any manure. Satisfied
the use of MAPEa' SUPERPHOSPHATE pays hand?
somely,"
Rev. W. A. MEBBIWETHEB, Valle Cruels, netr Co?
lumbia, S. C., reports:
"MAPES* SUPEK-PHOSPHATE has given perfect
satistaction, and that it permanently improves the
soil Has no hesitation in saying it is the special
manure for thc turnip and Dish potato."
P. C. PENDLETON, Valdoston,Ga., writes:
"MAPES* S?PEB-PHOdPHATE has exceeded my
most sanguine expectations. The effects of its use
on Corn, Peas and Garden Vegetables was most
marked. If it can be always kept up to the stan?
dard it must take the preference of ah fertilizers in
use."
M. B. HUNTER, Quitman, Ga., reports:
"Applied at the rato of 150 pounds per acre upon
every alternate four rows. The result was truly as?
tonishing. The manured rows yielded fully double
the neighboring alternate rows."
