THE GERMAN BUSH, TO AMERICA.-Private . letters from the county of Sohannburg ( Elec ^toral Hesse), state that the emigration to this ? country is extraordinarily great this year, and that erven roany peasants in easy circumstances s. are quitting their homes for the United States. The number of persons leaving, rt is added, is more considerable than during the period from '.: 1852 to 1854, when the uncertain situation of the .country determined many of the inhahi - tanta to abandon it. \ At present the excessive - augmentation of the taxes appears to be the principal cause of this exodus. A ROWING MATCH came off on Saturday after? noon, the. contestants being the "Alicia" and ..?the "Lillie," two fine row boara owned and .manned by youths, whose business on the wharves has inspired fondness for aquatic .xsports. The distance tobe rowed was from ?the James' Island buoy to the corner of the .battery-about ono mile-and although both >boats breasted the waters gallantly the Alicia > was declared the victor by a few lengths. The AJjciawas entered by. Mr. Edwin Walker, and was rowed, by the following crew : Henry Ch eves, -coxswain; Stioke-H. D. Elliott, H. Williams, W. Evans, B. Denan. The Lillie was entered by Messrs. Neil Huguenin and G. B. Edwards, ^ and was mahned as follows: G. B. Edwards, ^coxswain; Stroke-D. Bull, Neil Huguenin, - Thos. Ingleeby, Alfred Heyward. i THE CATHOLIC FATE-SIXTH DAY. -Th e Opera .on Saturday did not seem to affect the Catholic Fair, and, although there were not many new . faces, persons enough were found to bleed and * collapse once more. On Wednesday the Fair will certainly close, and all the wondrous things remaining undisposed of will then be rattled off. The last nights, are sure to be brilliant, - and the chances of winning a fortune for a ?quarterwill be great enough-to temptamathe . Hiatician. Aa already noticed, the Cr.tb.oli c female or ., phans were treated at the Fair on Friday, and ? on Saturday the male orphans were served with the same sauce. They were marched into ? th e hall in grand. styl?, and opened their eyes as wide as they afterwards opened their months. "They were astonished, dazzled, a little fright . * ened, and tunah delighted, and after they had wadded their little frames with ice-cream and - cake, were permitted to dive into the grab-bag, -whose "dark unfathomable depths" contain ? many a gem of purest glass serene, not to men * ? tion pincushions, dolls andjbaby shoes. The orphans were highly delighted. Bless their Jittlo hearts, they deserved it all. Tho shooting gallery, Jacob's well, tele? graph, wheel of fortune, ico cream, plate, rturkey, infant's clothes, and the rest are still : .flourishing, and amongst the objects to be raf - fled to-night is tho far-famed palpitating doll No. S. Soda is on the rampage, and it is . proper to mention that the marble fountain was lent to4he Fair by W. S. Corwin ?t Co., of King-street. Ono of the principal features is a double re -vTolving stereoscope to be raffled for at table No. "9. The stereoscope is of large dimensions, and - contains forty-eight painted views of Ireland. "Those views are got up in the best style of art, .?and embrace the most picturesque and inter - eating parts- of the Emerald Bile. ; The' view of the. "Ifish Ferns" is strikingly .beautiful, and is alone worth ten times the -vcost of a "chance." The yews on the Lakes .of Killarney are perfect. Blarney Castle, on -fthe top of which stands prominently the cele? brated Blarney stone, which yields such sweet persuasive powers to its eager votaries, and lias nearly been kissed by every lady in the .?Catholic Fair. Nothing is more charming .than the County of Wicklow scenery; and in ?hese views we have two beautiful specimens, -that of Lough Don and the Devil's Glen. The whole is the generous gift of J. W. B., of New .York. The following is a list of the articles won on ,; Saturday night : A splendid cake, Rev. F. J.

The full account of thia most brutal and un? provoked murder of a defenceless man, com? mitted in the presence ol his wife, was pub? lished in THE NEWS at the time of its occur? rence. Several of the members of the Fortieth colored infantry, the garrison at Walterboro', were then arrested, but there was no evidence sufficient to convict them and they were re? leased. A portion of this regiment was subse? quently discharged, and after they had left for their homes a colored man, named Lewis Mix, made an affidavit tbat induced the military authorities to ?BSUO warrants for the arrest of _German, Jas. Stevens and Ben McDaniel, discharged members of the Fortieth. The two first were soon secured, but McDaniel had left for bis home in Ohio, and was only arrested upon a requisition made upon the Governor of Ohio, and signed by General Canny and Gov I ernor Orr. The prisoners were brought to this city and sent to Castle Jfinckney for safe keep? ing, bat Stevens, evidently through the con? nivance of his guard, succeeded in effecting his escape a few days since, and was re-arrest? ed at Fort Moultrie. German has, since his arrest, turned State's evidence, and the other prisoners have been removed to the jail in this city, where they are closely confined. The trial will take place to-day before a military commission, to be held at the Citadel. The nature of the affidavit and German's evidence is not - Known, but if the prisoners are found gullly, it is to be hoped that they will receive the full punishment awarded hy the law, as the circumstances show that the killing, by whom? soever done, was a most wanton and atrocious murder. - THE OPERA ON SATURDAY NIGHT.-The Parlor Opera Troupe, of which Misa Mccul? loch is 'the bright particular star," performed on Saturday night Donizetti's "Don Pas? quale''with complete success. Of course the hall was not convenient to either singers or audience, but it was packed with the "upper tenn of Charleston, who for the nonce were thoroughly and properly enthusiastic. Sig nor Boye as "Ernesto" sang with great sweetness. His voice is not powerful, but it is of good quality, and was used with delicacy and judg? ment. Signor Orlandini as "Malatesta" was very good. His voice is a rich mellow bari? tone, of great force and fine timbre. Signor Snsini evidently has not been taught by expe? rience to avoid the narrow line which divides buffoonery from comedy. His voice is too boisterous and shows a straining after effect, injurions, sometimes, to his companions on the stage, and at variance, frequently, with dra? matic propriety. Signor Susini has a noble voice, and canif he likes play "Don Pasquale" in finch a manner as to leave but little to be djsired. The concerted singing was admira? bly done, and the trio and quartette in the second act particularly worthy of praise. Mies McCullooh,.however, was the attraction of the evening, and she has received a wel? come 'that must have proved to her that Charleston can value Southern talent. The great charm of her voice is its clear, warbling freshness, and the lack of "staginess" in her manner cannot mar the grace and brilliancy of her singing. Miss Mcculloch sang the famous cavatina in thet first act 'with groat effect, and was warmly encored. Her Binging throughout the opera was a triumph, and the boqueta in? creased in number and the applause increased in vehemence until the close of the thu'.- act, when Miss Mcculloch was called before the footlights, and so pelted with flowers and praise that she was compelled to sing one of her favorite valses. Our fair Carolina singer has written her name high in our esteem, and she must not be allowed to leave our city without having received some public evi? dence of the high appreciation thal she has won. MKMOUTAT. DAT.-The association of ladies who have undertaken the care of the graves of the Confederate dead had designated the 10th of May, the anniversary of Stonewall Jackson's ?death, as the occasion to deck the graves of the fallen with floral offerings. The tenth falling on Sunday, ' this solemn ceremony was performed last Saturday. Every arrangement had been made to secure a full attendance of '. those who honored the dead of the lost cause. Extra trains were run on both the South Caro? lina and the Northeastern Railroads, and be? fore the hour appointed for the ceremony to commence, the little hedge enclosing the Con? federate burial ground was surrounded by an attentive audience of about three thousand persons, a large proportion of whom were ladies. A humber of carriages, wagons and private conveyances were also on the ground, and the occupants from these elevated posi? tions obtained a good view of the impressive scene. In the centre of the burial ground a cross had been erected^ which was draped with moss, and at one angle of tho hedge there was a temporary stage crowned with a mossy arch, under which the venerable Dr. Bachman took his stand. The ceremonies were opened with prayer by the Bev. Dr. Bachman, after which an invocation hymn, composed for the oc? casion by the Bev. C. S. Vedder, was sung. The tadie? of the association, assisted by their at? tendant cavaliers, then proceeded to lay their floral tributes on the graves. Every headstone waa crowned with a wreath, some of them ex? tremely beautiful, but the majority were taste? fully formed of laurel and cedar, while the body of the graves were decorated with crosses, wreaths, boquete, and other floral offerings. The tombs of other Confederate soldiers who were buried in private lots were also visited, and the same tender care was lavished upon them. That of Captain Mitchel, the son of the distinguished Irish patriot, was beautifully adorned. This tomb is one of the principal points of interest in Magnolia, and was visited by a large number of persons. After the cere? mony of decorating the graves had been con? cluded, the visitors walked slowly through the burial ground, and read the brief record which was placed on each headstone the name of the soldier with bis com? pany and regiment. One row at the east end of the enclosure caused many to stop and gaze sadly at the simple word "unknown," which was the only inscription on the stone. The unknown dead were, however, not neg? lected, and the flowers were 'iberally strewn over their graves. The return trip of the cars was fixed for half past six o'clock, which allowed ample time for a stroll through the beatiful City of the Dead. The graves of Colonel Washington, and those of historical fame in the recent war, were sev? erally visited, and many a silent tear was brushed away as the last resting-place of the Confederate dead was passed. The shrill whistle and the lengthening shadows reminded the crowd that it was time to turn their faces homeward, but it was with lingering steps that they left the hallowed spot. The cars were soon freighted, bat, notwithstanding the extra accommodations furnished by the two roads, it was found necessary to make a second trip be? fore all of the visitors were borne back to the city. lu the different grave yards attached to the churches in the city the graves of the soldiers were not forgotten, for tender and loving hands had orowned then! with laurel wreaths. Calhoun's grave, in St Philip's Church yard, and that of Mr. Peter Manigault, in the Hugue . not Church yard, an old veteran, who lost his life at the close of the war, were profusely de? corated with flowers and wreaths. The day was bright, clear and beautiful, the air being pleasantly cool and refreshing. COUBT OF EQUITY.-There waB no session of Ibis court on Saturday.

The snit was for fourteen thousand dollars, and the District Attorney gave notice of an appeal to the Supreme Court at Washington. TESTIMONIAL TO MISS MCCULLOCH.-Hi s a Mcculloch has many claims upon our consi? deration and regard. She is a Carolina lady, an artiste of uncommon promise, and Acanta' trice who may be expected in after years to make famous the name of her native State. Miss Mcculloch has taken Charleston by storm. What General Gilmore and all bis an? gels could not do in three hundred days, Miss Mcculloch has done in a few hours. The city is at her feet, and rather likes the position. To? morrow this "Mocking Bird of South Carolina" is to leave us, and it will only meet the wishes of hundreds of our citizens if she is persuaded to remain until Wednesday, and accept to? morrow night a grand complimentary concert, which shall show the measure of our esteem. We can give Miss Mcculloch a bumper con? cert, and tit is jhoped that the proposition will be carried out without the delay of an hour, ' '_ . LAUNCH OF THE YACHT "ELLA ANNA."-This event, which has been looked forward to with eagerness by a large circle of juvenile cavaliers and young misses, came off on Saturday morn? ing at South Dry Dock wharf, al half-past nine o'clock, in the presence of a burge concourse of spectators,who, fresh and rosy as a May morn? ing, graced the occasion by their attendance. Every preparation for the launch had been completed previously, and as the swelling tide reached its higho at point, a goodly portion of the little folks claimed the privilege of partici? pating in the launch by taking seats aboard. The hour of high water having arrived, gay bunting was unfurled ; the ensign was displayed from the stern ; the burgee, with white field and scarlet letters showing the name of "Ella Anna" at the masthead ; the pendant, white, red and blue, of wonderful length ; the signal flag forward, white field and scarlet letter "M.," now floated brightly on the morning breeze, and, at a given signal, the fastenings were cast off, and while the beautiful little ship slid slowly bnt gracefully into the water, the interesting ceremony of christening was per? formed by the usual breakage of a bottle of wine over her bows, and the "Ella Anna" was afloat. It is needless to Bay that the launch waa successful, that the greatest eclat attached to all the little folks who had ventured aboard, and that they were envied exceedingly by the more timid who had staid ashore. The "Ella Anna" was hauled to a convenient point at the wharf and the happy "voyageurs" were assist? ed onshore, where the young lady who lent her name to the boat presented Miss Marsh with a fine bouquet. The whole party with joyful steps then proceeded to a neighboring office, where a spread of good things was in waiting, prepared by the veritable Tully himself. After proper attention to creams, cakes, tarts and lemonade, the company retired, no doubt wish? ing for just such a niue little frob.Ce very Satur? day in the year. It was in all' respects a well appointed and most pleasant affair. As our miniature fleet for the summer season of boating and fishing is increasing in num? bers, we have obtained from the shipwrights, Messrs. J. G. & D. C. Marsh, the following par? ticulars of this fine little vessel: Length over all, 41 feet; length on keel, 35 feet ll inches; beam, ll feet 3 inches; depth of bold, 4 feet 6 inches; mast, 46 feet; topmast, 20 feet; boom, 37feet; gaff, 16 feet; bowsprit (outboard), 10 feet; centre board, 9 feet; tonnage, 7? tons; j draught-aft, 4.3 inches; forward, 2.9 inches. The noticeable feature of the "Ella Anna" are these: her lines, which are convex, are more forward than has heretofore been usual, which gives her a sharp appearance about the bow, while the bearings have been developed further aft. Her mast seems tall and her boom and gaff indicate a spread of canvas that will make her a formidable competitor of any craft of her tonnage and size. We noticed that some portion of her rigging is of wire. This work is now going forward at the Union wharf dock, and those who take an interest in yachts and auch matters can see her there. We congratulate the owners on their new acquisition, and hope to hear of more yacht-building. With our fine harbor any quantity of sport is available here at home every sommer. THE FA in OF THE PLYMOUTH CONOBEGATIONAX CH?BCH (COLOBED,) which has been held at the hall in Meeting-street, opposite Pinckney, will continue open for tbree nights longer. The decorations and arrangement of the tables aro alone sufficient to attract visitors, but the managers have also provided music, and the inspiring strains induce many to enter and de? posit their greenbacks.
