ANOTHER HAND-SHAKING-THE CHARLESTON
IrJBJ??Bs'TOCy.n^ Gormans
are bustling, busy and prosperous in their busi?
ness affairs, and the same feeling which will
not aUow theuvtobe ontr?n in the gallop for
a comfortable fortune, does nofcpermis them to
be distanced in the pursuit of that hearty
pleasure which is- the holiday gilding of the
rough tree of life. 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.

and members of the two fire companies who

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,

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

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.
Resolved, Tbat it is farther the sense of il
meeting that it is essential tb success th
there should be but one candidate of the Co
servative party of Charleston; and that we cc
chally invite all true Conservatives who ha
the real interests of our city at heart, to uni
upon the candidate so to be selected.

engine houses respectively, and a notice w
given that & public mass meeting would 1

On motion, the meeting then adjourned.
MAT DAT.-The first day of Maj in tl
country is not the May-day of Old En glan
where by that time
The honeysuckle round the porch bas wov'n 1
wavy bowers,
And by the meadow-trenches blow the faint, swt

an occasion danced she of whom gallant 8
John Budding wrote tba:
Her feet, beneath her petticoat,
Like little mice, stole in and out,
As if they feared the light; 1
And then, she dances such a way,
No sun upon an Easter-day
Is half so fine a eight.

THE EXAMINATION of Dr. W. H. 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.

Draining for Health, and Profit.
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.
