They have a separate amusement for every month of the year, a laugh for every week, and a ride-sputting joke for ? every day. They never tire, and know not tbe word ?ul when solid fan is to the fore. It is not surprising that the German Turners wished to go to Savannah to meet their Georgia brethren, and a large delegation will leave .Charleston on Sunday for the purpose'of in? augurating & Turnverein in Savannah. They will tr ea 1 on the heels of the firemen, and Will give the Forest City another opportunity of showing its wen known hospitality. Charleston has made the first call of the sea? son, and expects that Savannah win return the call without any further invitation. Oar peo? ple are always at home, and will give any dele? gation from Savannah as hearty a welcome as they would receive in any place between this world and the next. The "Vigilant*" and '^Washingtons" Sall for Savannah. GETTING UNDER WAT-A GALLANT ESCORT THREE CHEERS FOB THE GALLANT FIREMEN-A FOND SALUTE. All the small boys in the city who were not engaged in any peculiarly attractive mischief, gathered together yesterday around the en? gine houses of the '?Vigilant'' and "Washing? ton'' fire companies to witness the departure of the daring firemen, who, bent on winning fame, were about to sail for Savannah. Perhaps the mottled urchins thought that "Vigilants was the price of liberty," and that a study of the smiling face of the ra? diant President would make them fa? miliar with liberty and a "free constitooshun." Perhaps they thought that the sister company was a many-headed, many-hearted counterpart of the revolutionary "Jorge" who had come back in uniform from the echoless shore to advocate "Congressional Reconstruction." Whichever hypothesis be true, it is certain that the you ogs tera were there; and it is cer? tain also that the arrival ot two o'clock, and the placing of the engines aboard_ tho "City P?&?," didnot allay their precocious curiosity. The members of the two visiting companies assembled punctually at their halla as direct? ed, but before the starting time the Stonewall Fire Company arrived at the engine house of the Vigilants, and courteously offered to act as an escort to that company. They were invited to take seats ia the hall, and were welcomed by President Tupper in a few hearty words. Soon afterwards tho Vigilante, with their guard of honor, marched down to.. the wharf, which happy .place. the. Washingtons had already reached. The Stonewalls drew up ia line and saluted the Vigilants as they inarched aboard, and the snorting and paning af the City Point then gave warning, that the parting hour was nigh. , -?.""' The two visiting companies had barely made themselves familiar with the internal appear? ance of the ocean monster, commanded by Commodore Adkins, when the lines were cast off and tho.steamer, with ita jolly crew, glided from the wharf. At thia moment, the Stone wall's called oat' for three cheers and a tiger for the-Vigilant Fire Company. The cheers were lustily given and returned, and the same compliment was then- paid to the Washington Fire Company. Ore feature nf the programme did, however, end in smoke, for Captain Ad? kins fired j3 veteran gan ?a an appropriate farewell salute. Thia was returned in kind by the "Champion," which was lying at her: wharf, - and- - the two shots caused a stn. in the lower, part of the city, which only subsided when a belated broker suggested that the horrid racket was; only the report of the drat volley of corks let fly by the enterprising firemen. Among the gentlemen who accom? panied;^ firemen were M. E. Nathan, Esq., Chief, of ' the.'Charleston Fire .Department; Messrs. Jas. H. Taylor, J. B. Campbell and J. E. Boylston; of-the~6har.1e8ton. and Savannah Railroad, and representatives of the Charles? ton daily press.

Shortly before their departure the members of the Vigilant Fire Company received a pres? ent which they will value highly and carry with them as a good omen of success. This present was a wreath of flowers, within che cir? cumference of which waa worked on white aa in in gold letters the motto of the compa? ny-' 'Perseverando Vmoimus!" The wreath waa the work of a charming young Charleston lady, and is one of the moat beautiful and tasteful floral offerings that the favored ''Vigi? lants have ever received. THE CATHOLIC FAIR.-The long expected Catholic Fair, ander the patronage of the Bight Bev. Bishop Lynch and many of the most in? fluential gentlemen in the city, will open on Monday next, and it'is expected that the offi? cial announcement will be made to-morrow. Of the objects of the fair nothing need be said, for it ia one that will appeal to . every kind? ly sympathy and generous emotion, but the fair itself wilt be a gem and model of ita kind,.. and will contain such a' brilliant array of animate-and inanimate attractions aa will make it a thing to be enjoyed to the full while it lasts, and regretted when the portals ire closed,. Bumer tells that the tablea will be overflowing with good and graceful things, that there will be charms, for tbe eye, ear and brain, and that tho attendant ladies will be as Deautiful as Houris, as attractive as magnets, ind as. graceful and courteous ?s Southern ?y otu en BO well knowhow to be. It. is to be the jvent of the year, saya Madame Rumor, and it Is believed that every man, woman and child ot warm impulses and wishes will speed to the joming fair._ THE BLUE RIDGE RAILROAD.-The Anderson intelligencer learns that a spirited meeting in favor of the Blue Ridge Railroad has been held in Franldin, Macon County, N. C., and that large and liberal subscriptions of land will be promptly made. The Intelligencer adds: "To the people of Babun, Franklin, Cherokee and Jackson counties, we would say that much de? pends upon their prompt and efficient action. If they subscribe at once the three hundred thousand acres required, the effect on the 1 people of this State will result in the enter? prise being secured, and the work resumed. ' The energetic efforts of Gen. J. W. Harrison, 1 President of the Blue Ridge Road, deserve en- 1 couragement. Under adverse circomatancos, ' with the country impoverished and the people ' despondent, he has Bet on foot thia 'scheme of subscribing land for the purpose of raising funds to completo the road, and has given close attention to the furtherance of the ob- ; ?oct in view. We learn that the people of Ba- . bun County were to hold a similar meeting to that of Franklin on Monday last, and that General Harrison would be present to urge tbe j proposed scheme. " Conservative Meeting in the Uppei Wards. In response to an invitation published THE DATLT NEWS, a large number of the Cc 8ervativ? residents of the upper wards' met Oppenheim'e Hall last night to take prehmina steps for organizing in view of the approac ing elections. The hall was densely ero* ed, the bone andBinew of our city being fu represented, and much interest waa manifei ed in the proceedings. After the organizati of the meeting several speeches were made, i pudiating all ciiqu.es and calling for united t tibn. The following resolutions were offer and unanimously adopted: Rf soloed, That it ia the sense of this me? ing that each ward in the city be organized once; that each ward so organized appoint i executive committee of five; that when so a pointed, all the executive committees from ea ward meet in a central executive commits and that such central executive committ shall be authorized to nominate a suitable pc son as candidate for Mayor of the City Charleston.

There are Celtic legends of the O'Dor oghne horseman and the Mummers of hi train; there are Provencal ballads of May-nigh serenades; and last, though by no means leas: there is Tennyson's "May Queen," which, ar pealing immediately to the hearts of all Er ghshmen, did! more for his reputation tba the finical beauty and faultless faultiness c "Maud" and tho passionate intensity of "Locke ley Hall"-all investing.the. daws of May wit] an antique halo of literary romance.

Tarrants school, No. SO Bull-street, yesterday, was at? tended br a considerable number of visitors. The exercises passed off with credit to teachers and pupils, and to the satisfaction and amuse? ment of the visitors. The examination showed the admirable training of the boys, close at? tendance upon their duties, and the thorough discipline of the school. The ladies present were, however, more specially pleased with the elocutionary performances, which certainly averaged considerably above the mean of school? boy excellence. The dialogue of the Colonel ?nd the French Cook afforded great amusement bo pupils and visitors. Master Ball delivered "Carolina," written by his mother, Mrs. C. A. Ball, with great credit to himself, and doing full justice to the noble theme. This poem, as well as many others by the same author, we will be pardoned for mentioning, was written for, and first published in THE CHARLESTON DAILY NEWS. The boys voted the prize for elocution to Master J. J. Chisolm, and the teacher gave prizes for proficiency in their studies, punctu? ality, good conduct, &c, to Masters Joseph Whilden, Frank J. Pelzer, and J. N. Robson. ITEMS OF STATE NEWS.-On last Saturday the ladies of Sumter, Florence and other pointe in the State decorated the graves of the fallen soldiers of the "lost cause."

To the Editors of the Daily News : In a low flat country like Charleston and its surroundings, there can be little or no doubt that thoroughly draining the land must be beneficial, not only to the health of the place, but also to the fertility of the soil. Such be? ing the case, it appears strange that so little attention has heretofore been paid to the sub? ject. Becently public notice has been attracted by the action of the City Council of Charleston, and it is to be hoped that the matter will not rest here, but will receive due attention, not only from the public generally, but that indivi? duals, looking to their own interest, will ?nves tigate for themselves, and at least drain their own premises, not only in the city, but their farms in its vicinity. If this plan is faith fully carried out, as it should be, there cannot be a reasonable doubt that all places so drained will immediately improve in health as well as fer? tility. Writers on drainage aud agriculture in Europe, as well as in the Northern and West? ern States of thia country, give many good and substantial reasons for thoroughly underdrain ing all cultivated land, high land as well as low land. The advantages are nearly the same, and in many inatances the increase of the crop tho first seaeon has paid the whole expense, and the land bas been permanently improved. Let our Southern farmers look into, study the subject, and experiment for their own satisfac? tion and benefit. THOROUGH DRAINAGE. BUSINESS NOTICES. H. H.
