In spite of the fact that tbs company were forced to take thia room, at a few hours' notice, v -or to pass by Charleston altogether in their Southern lour, their. reception proves that - the city is not yet dead to the taste for enter? tainment of this high quality, when presented by well known and appro ved artists. The hall was well filled with the fashionable and dilet? tanti, even upon so abort a notice. It is a fact within oat own knowledge tba* np to. 6 o'clock -on Thursday evening it bad not; been deter? mined whether these rieras could be given In ithifi city arnot. By telegraph they were sum? moned, and almost, by telegraph they have re- , eponded. . - ?

Boye ia sweetly sweet, -and Susini ia strongly strong. Tonight we are to hu ve "Don Pasquale," .and the han will doubtless bc crowded to bear the rendition of this ci^ef d'oeuvre of Doni? zetti; ' I_ 1 TEE OBPHAN HOUSE MAIOOS.-The May fes? tival erf this institution was celebrated yester? day*, as in times past, at the farm of Mr. P. J. Porcher, that gentleman, having extended the hospitalities tb the children, their Webers and the Board of Cbmmissjoners. A happy band ? of Little -ones Jeftlho city yesterday morning on the Northeastern Railroad and were soon at the proraiaed land. Every arrangement had be?m made to secure the comfort of the orphans; .?each dormitory had been divided off and was un? der the charge pi its special nurse. These kept - their li t Qe nooks together until the whole were cusmiesod to enjoy themselves under the shade of the live oaks, cr to engage in such amuse? ments as might prove moat attractive. A -small boat, which was idly floating in the creek, was soon furnished with a willing crew, I and the gallantry of the sex was displayed in the eagerness of the boya to give their fan* -companions a few natural lessons. The morn -ing hours passed quietly and pleasantly, and the -dinner call summoned the merrie party to the May feast that had been furnished by the com . missioners. Each oak shaded a group of little ones busily engaged in discussing the good things of this Rfe, while a long table at a little .distance accommodated tbs commissioners, teachers and invited guests, in all about one ..'hundred persons. After diner the children, under the leadership of Miss Irvine, sang seve? ral songs in unison, and the woods bave sel? dom re-echoed sweeter strains. Mr. Porcher was then introduced to the - .children by Mr. Murren and Mr. W. C. Bee, and . responded in a short speech, assuring the or? phans that while he retained possession of the -farm he would every May day welcome them -with pleasure, and would cede the place to them for the day.. The shades of evening ad? monished the older and wiser beads that it was -time to turn their faces homeward, and at -quarter-past 6 the party were again seated in the cars, bound for Charleston. The goal was -reached in due time, and by 8 o'clock the insti? tution had resumed its former quiet, and the May festival was numbered among the things that were. Nearly all of the commissi emera, the superin? tendent and matron, the teachers and other others of the house were present with the chil? dren, and partook of the pleasures of the day. Two hundred and seventy-five children of both sexes comprised the number of juveniles who -visited the farm. There are three hundred and fifteen inmates of the house, but several of these were too young, and others unable from different causes to attend. It was, in every respect, ft day of rmmixed enjoyment, and, if the verdict of the children could be taken, it would be unanunoualy decided that they could not have added another drop to their cup of happiness. Meeting of the Voters of the Four I Wards. The interest manifested in the appro: municipal elections exhibited itself last ing in the attendance at Masonic Hall < or three hundred of the voters residing lower wards of the city. The meeting being called to order, ? Platt was called to the chair and Mr. Jo Steele chosen secretary. The chairman announced that the obj the meeting was to effect an arrangeme which residents of Charleston posseesin confidence of the community might be s ed to fill the different offices in the gift < people. To accomplish this object, har i. all the organizations of the city was e ti al, and to this end resolutions bad beet pared and would be submitted, which, consideration, would doubtless be found dearly entitled to the approval of the mee Above all is needed promptness of actioi tie talking and much work. Mr. W. P. Bussell then offered the folio1 Re solved, That this meeting do adopt the i of appointing delegates to nominate a di da te for Mayor for the approaching else which was carnea out by the citizens c upper wards, as published in the daily pt ofthat date, and with a view of acting ir cordance therewith, be lt: . > Resolved, That the chairman of this ii ing be authorized to call, through the p papers, a meetins of each of the four 1 w?rds,"to .be held"on Tuesday evening ne: some proper hall in each ward, and that, v assembled, they organize and select, by lot, five delegates to meet the like nm from all the wards to nomm?tes suitable di da te for Mayor. Resolved, That each ward, when asseml shall take ouch steps as they may deem ad' bia to nominate aldermen for their res pei wards. Resolved. That this meeting respect suggests that the citizens of the upper w proceed to organize on Tuesday evening I and select, by ballot, five delegates for eac the upper wards, and meet the delegates 1 the lower wards on Friday evening nex snch place as shall be designated by the eral chairmen of the valions ward meeting Resolved, That, when the delegates e have made their nominations, the chairmai authorized to call a mass meeting to rec and confirm such n onana tiona. Mr. Russell said that the only object ail -at in offering these resolutions was to set that harmony without which success could be commanded, flo expression of opii waa made with reference to any individual, the'.choice was left open to that body wt -might hereafter assemble in its representa : capacity, and declare, with perfect accord, names of the persons Cor whom the suffira ; of the community were to be thrown, irrest ti ve of personal prejudir ~r political am tiona. A citizen from one of the upper wards b exception to the attempt, which he concei was being made to ignore the action abrei taken in the upper wards, and expressed hope that.the resolutions would not be adopt on the ground that they sought to divide pi lie sentiment by merely geographical J imita The chairman said that such waa by means the object of the r?solu tiona, which w intended, on the contrary, to secure cone and uniformity of action. Whatever might the action of other wards, the matter would decided at another time, and need not com tute a part Of the present deliberations. Mr. P. J. Coogan addressed the meeting support of the idea already thrown out, tl without co-operation there could not be si cess. He advised the voters in the differ? wards to put their households in order withe delay. There war no question that the pooj were of right entitled to a. voice in the erg a zarion of the municipal government, but it ? emphatically the part of wisdom to utter th voice with as much unanimity-especially u der the circumstances of the moment-as pc aible, in order to achieve what every true lov of progress desires-the welfare of Charles to The question was then taken, and the res huions were unanimously adopted. Mr. H. H. DeLeon then rose to anoint of i; formation and asked the chair whether 1 could inform the meeting if General Gani would require the new Mayor and Aldermen 1 take the iron-clad oath. The chair said that be would take the oppo tunity of banding the gentleman an offlci letter which had just been placed in his po; session, and which might answer the questio addressed to him. lr. DeLeon then read the letter referred t as'follows: HXADQUABTEBS SECOND MxLITA2Y DtSTEIOT, ) ? CHARLESTON, S. C., MayS, 1868. j Sir-In reply to your letter of thia date, asl ing if the Mayor of Charleston, to be elect? at the. coming election, must take the oath c officer I ua instructed by , the commandin, ?eneral to say. that until the State of Sont arolina is declared entitled ti representatio: in the Congress of the United State, the oatl pres cribed by the act of Congress of July 2d 1862, must be taken by all persons appointe) or elected to office. Very respectfully, sir, your obedient servant, LOUIS V. CAZTARC, A.D. G., A. A. G. EBAMB W. DAWSON, Esq., Editor Charleston Daily News. Mr. DoLeon then addressed the meeting briefly, pertinently and well. He said that th? reception of this letter gave a now phase to om affairs. Whatever might be the choice of citi? zens, however much they might desire tc manifest their confidence in or do honor tc certain individuals, it was now evident thai some man must be chosen who united to large capability intelligence imd administrative qual? ities, the ability to take the test oath. It therefore behooved every citizen to look around him and select such a mau. On motion of Mr. Trombo, the meeting then adjourned.

MAT 8.-The case of Arthur Spearing alias Chis olin, and Franois P. Lopez, charged with the morder of Benjamin LeGrand Capers on the night of April 9th, at Fordham's Hall, was taken np. T. Y. Simons, Esq., and H. G. Yoong, Esq., appeared for Lopez, and W. E. Mikell, Esq., for Chisolm. The Attorney-General addressed the jory OD the nature of the crime of morder, and showed the difieren ce between that and manslaughter. E. M. Whiting, Esq., Dr. Middleton Michel, and several colored witnesses, were examined, bot the court adjourned without concluding the testimony for the prosecution; thirty wit? nesses being in attendance. The evidence elicited showed that Chisolm, Lopez and the deceased were at a dance given at Fordham's Hall, and that Capers (the de? ceased) had requested the hand of Amelia At? kins for the next dance, bot being refused, he had called ber a black bitch and repeated the offensive epithet twice. Amelia had gone to the ball with Chisolm, and he was told of the conduct of Capers. Chisolm walked towards Capers and s truck him a blow ; he was also also Strock by Lopez, who aided and abetted Chisolm in the assault. Capers then tamed and retreated, bot seized a China pitcher and struck at Chisolm. The blow was received by Wm. Nelson, who was trying to separate the parties, and the pitcher fell to the ground und was broken. Capers then started to leave the room, bot stumbled over a bench and fell, and while prostrate was stabbed by Chisolm with a dirk. Chisolm remarked that he had killed tbe damned-and left the hall with Lopez, both of them accompanying Amelia Atkins to her home in George-street. Some of the parties who were present went for a doctor, and one Boot went to the detective of? fice and informed Officer Chapman who arrest ed Chisolm. It was subsequently ascertained ' that Lopez had been accessory to the act, and he was also arrested. Amelia Atkins and Chisolm had been bring together as man and wife, and j the latter was very jealous of the attentions paid by Capers. The arrest was made at Amelia's house, and the next morning the dirk was found on her bed. The blade filled the wound exactly, and the dirk was identified on the stand. The post mortem elimination held by Dr. Michel Bho wed that the blade had entered be? tween the ribs, and bad penetrated the heart, almost severing the base, and causing instant death. The evidence was nearly the same as that produced before the coroner, and went to show that there had been some ill-feeling be? tween Chisolm and Capers on account of Amelia. Lopez had acted as the friend of Chisolm, and had struck Capers whon the quarrel commenced. The trial will be contin? ued to-day. Tho courtroom was densely crowded with colored persons, every inch of space behind the railing being taken, while a large number succeeded in obtaining standing room inside the bar. The pressure around the door was so great that the railing gave way, and the con? stables were unable to make the crowd retire. There is considerable excitement among the colored class in regard to the murder, and threats have been publicly ottered that if the accused is acquitted he wont live long. Chisolm is a fine looking light-colored mu? latto, Lopez being younger and darker. They were both apparently at their ease, and heard the testimony against them with nonchalance. The witnesses nave evidently conned their parts; for there was a singular unanimity in their statements and language. The Firemen's offering to the Orphans To the Editors of the Daily News : I have noticed with much satisfaction the great interest generally manifested by the Fire Department in this offering, and no donbt the result of the generous contest for the prize will be no less flattering to the firemen than acceptable to the Sisters' orphans. Bat I am told that a few companies, whose members are small, think that they will have "no showing" in the contest, and therefore feel timid to enter the lists. Permit me to make to them a suggestion. Let their motto be, " well try," I am Bure many of onr citizens would be pleased to have an opportunity of testifying their appreciation of their favorite companyi and would place their preference on record if j they could attend the Fair. But as many will be prevented from doing so, I would suggest that some of the members should call on their friends for a few votes to help them out.

Lawrence: DZAB Sra-My youngest daughter, aged five years, has been dreadfully afflicted with Scrofula nearly all her Ufe. I tried a great many physicians, but with? out relieving her much; in fact, most of them said there was no hope of cure. During the last spring she waa worse than ever, her body and limbs being covered with sores and blotches-with fase and eyes badi; ulcerated and swollen. Whilst in thia condi? tion I was advised by Dr. L. A. S ti th to try your Rosadalis. I at once procured three bottles, and commenced giving it to her. The effect was magi? cal. In less than a month, to my great astonish, ment, she waa entirely well. I am sir, yours, With much respect and gratitude, W. W. BURNETT. ROSADALIS CURES ALL SKIN DISEASES. WILSON, N.
