THE CON-CERT LAST NIGHT.-The concert room at tho Mills House was again crowded last nicht by an audience anxious to applaud Miss Mc? culloch and her companions of the Parlor Opera Troupe. Susini was excellent in "Madamina il Cato logo," and the famous aria from ..Ernani." Orlan dini gave new charms to the thoroughly worn out and hackneyed "H Balen," and graceful ballad from "Bailo in Masshera," and Boye sang the passionate romanza from "La Travista" and the tender "La Donna c Mobile" with great effect Miss Mccul? loch was applauded to the echo and encored again ana again. Torriani's "Valse" would be famous if it were more generally known, and was sung by Mi83 Mcculloch in a manner that proved that vocal gymnastics had no terrors for her. The "Last Bose of Summer" Miss Mcculloch sang exquisitely, and this was the gem of the evening. Signor Torriani accompanied the singers with great taste and judgment, and iu a duo with Miss Mc Culloch was warmly applauded. To-night is the grand complimentary benefit to Miss Mcculloch, and the programme is as attractive as the voice of the fair b?n?ficiaire. Miss Mcculloch must have a bumper t A DESTRUCTIVE WIND NEAR GZOBGHOWN, S. C.-A terrible blow, attended^ with much damage to property and loss of Ufe, took place above- George? town, S. C., on Thursday last, between two and three o'clock P. M. The Wind commenced at the planta? tions of Dr. Gaillard and Mr. Reese Ford, on Black River, where the buildings were somewhat injured, and took a course from there to the Peedee River, where lt passed Immediately over the plantation of Dr. Fishbone. At this point lt was terribly severe, dc - motoning some thirty Email bull dings, breaking most of them entirely np, and injuring several large struc? tures, and in the demolition of these houses some three colored persons were killed outright, and several others badly if not dangerously injured. The trees along tie coarse of the wind presented a scene of en? tire destruction, being almost nniversahy broken or rooted np, and in several instances were lifted from the ground to a great elevation. It is feared that farther damage to lifo and property may be heard of. The hour being-one when many pc rsons were in the field and not at their residences, prevented a greater loss of Ufe. THE NICHOLSON PAVEMENT. -This pavement has been praised wherever it has boen used, and most of the large cities are now discarding the old cobble stone pavement for the Nichol? son. The propriety of using this style of pav? ing in Charleston was agitated as early as 1850, but the committee then'appointed to consider tho feasi? bility of adopting-the patent reported adversely, con Eldering lt to be hable to decay. Since that time the Nicholson pavement has been subjected to a tho? rough Wal and has given great satisfaction. A pave? ment of this description, which was laid on one of the principal thoroughfareB in Boston, has stood the test of travel for six years without costing the city, one cent for repairs. The wood used for this pave? ment was the spruce pine, .which ls much softer and more pliable than th e South ern pine. Kin ce the war, when the city contemplated repairing East Bay and Broad streets, the Mayor communicated- with the municipal authorities of different cities that had adopted fte Nicholson pavement. The report in each case was the same, all uniting; in recommending the Nicholson as the best invention known. Motives of economy induced Council to adopt the cobble stones, but the experience of the past shows that this style of parement requires constant repairs. Under the new regime, Improvements seem to be the order of the day, and, as there are now several streets sadly In need of a good pavement, the present would seem to be the time to bring the Nichol sen again before the public. Mr. Hugh Ferguson bas been recently appointed the agent of the patentee for this city, and ire learn that a memorial on this subject will be pre? sented to Connell at their next meeting. Tho price yt laying a cobble-stone pavement is about two dol? ors and five cents per square yard, not including Ins cost of subsequent repairs. The Nicholson will ?st from two dollars and seventy-five cents to t ?ree lollara, and is warranted to last from fourteen to twenty years, without costing the city a cent for re? pairs. It is a subject of great importance, and de? serves the attention of property owners and tax pay? ers, M well as the municipal authorities. THE WASHINGTON LIGHT INFANTRY CHARI? TABLE ASSOCIATION.-On the ? M of February last we bad the pleasure of publishing a notice of the anni? versary of this association, with a hst of its officers elect Anything relating to the relief of those of our friends and .countrymen,, whose wounds or mis? fortunes in the death oi relatives in the late war have Impaired their ability for self-support, or whose meagre earnings render the education of their chil? dren impossible, most ever be a matter of earnest solicitude to the citizens of Charleston. We have thought, in this connection, that a brief reference to the objects of this flourishing and active association, and a detail of some of the amounts "expended by it within the last few yous for Tarions purposes con? nected with the relief of the necessities of this large, needy and highly esteemed portion of oar people, whose claims to generous sympathy and substantial aid we must all heartily recognize, might be a sub? ject of interest to many of our readers. The association, we learn, notwithstanding its yearly expenses, has been enabled, by the judicious management strict economy and enterprise which has always marked its progress as a body, to make certain investments, the proceeds of which are in? tended as the basis ot future charities, and, in addi? tion, has contributed through the hands of the ener? getic Cmmittee on Charity nearly four hundred and if ty dollars ($450) for the relief of persons directly ir Indirectly affected by the c-naMes of war. This nun has been apportioned in various ways; some ia\e received a monthly allowance to assist in the lally maintenance of themselves or their families; > th ers have asked for temporary relit f, and have noe leen refused; others have had a monthly contribu ion to defray, Inpart the tuition of orphan children, md some dying of the effects of wounds received in service have been interred partly at the expense of he association, A considerable amount has been given to the en erprise of those noble ladies whose zeal in attending he sick, nursing the wounded, and watching over he last , moments of the dying, is only equalled by he self-eacrificfhg devotion which now stimulates heir unwearied energies to provide a heme for the vidow and orphan. A handsome purse was pre ented-an unsolicited acknowledgement-of the ervlces of one whose name excites a thrill of ad. airatian and love in the breast of nearly every sol? der who travelled the South Carolina Railroad from 861 to 1865. The association has in contemplation additional lbj ec ts of charity and usefulness. The reward, which onshits in the gratification of thus paying a debt f gratitude and love to the fallen and those they eave behind them, consoles its members for debar? ing themselves the pleasure of a more extended md expensive reunion at their anniversary. The latiafaction of contributing to the education of the unfortunate, of helping the maimed, of feeding the mungry, of housing the forlorn and the distressed, s ample compensation for husbanding fifty cents i per month, the monthly assessment of each mem? ber, paying it into the general treasury, to be dealt mt in such a manner as the judicious Committee on | Charity, after due investigation, shall recommend. I We are pleased to make this gratifying statement to our readers. Of all the associations founded by i the survivors of the war, this is one of the larcest ; ind most zealous in forwarding the objects for which < t was formed. We would like to see it larger, in < irder that its usefulness might be more extended. I Co correct an erroneous impression which exists among many young men of the community, m refer- : ince to eUgibUity for membership, we extract from ! he by-laws the following: Article XTL Ta render one eligible for member- i hip in this association, he must either have been a . nember of the Washington Liant Infantry during he years 1860 to 1865, both inclusive, or a member rf the company before I860, and exempt rrom duty : >y reason of age or other satisfactory cause, or have >een in actual service in some other command in he Confederate army or navy, or be the lineal de? scendant of one himself eligi?le to membership. I CONSERVATIVE MASS MBKIII? OF THE TJFPE. WARDS.-A mass meeting of the voters of the uppe wards was held last night at the Washington Engin Honse. Mr. W. S. B enere? was called to the chair and Mr. A. L. Tobias appointed secretary. The chairman said the meeting was called togethe: for the purpose of determining the manner in whicl nominations should be made for the coming elec dons. Tho lower wards had already concurred ii the action of the upper wards, and if the up; e: wards would now agree to the action of the lo wei wards, held on Thursday last, thero would bo tho? rough unanimity and concert ot action among thc the Conservative voters of the city. Mr. T. J. Knauff then offered a series of resol u tions, which were ordered to be considered seriatim. A gentleman then arose and defended somewhat warmly the course of the meering already held ix Ward 6. He said that this ward wanted no favor and would give none, and was ready to defend ita action. It was then moved that only those wards which hadnot already elected nominating committees meet to-night, which motion was subsequently with? drawn. Mr. Martin urged the calling of a new meeting in Ward G. He said that it was only fair and proper, and would show that tho meeting already held was a representation of the ward. Unless the mee ting was a pocked one, there would be no objection. Captain Carson followed, and argued against any new meeting where a meeting had been held. It was then said that the meeting in Ko. 6 was only called by a few people, and to this it was replied that one hundred and twenty p erions were present The chairman then explained the manner in which the Conservative Committee of the city bad been formed. He said that he had been a member of the committee, and behaved it to be an honest and un? selfish body; but the opinion had been formed that lt was the organ of a clique, and far that reason the committee had determined to recommit the whole matter to the wards themselves. In conclusion, he explained the necessity of harmonious and united action. ? A number of scattering motions were made, and Coroner Whiting then addressed the meeting. He urged the gentlemen to be united m working for a common cause, deprecated all divisions, and said that be was prepared to vote and work for any man who might be nominated by the party. The resolutions were then carried nearly unani? mously. They are as follows: Whereas, it la desirable that there should be entire concert of action throughout the wards of the city, in the manner of selecting those to whom will be entrusted the in; portant duty of choosing a suitable candidate for Mayor, who shall be the nomm?e of the Conservative element : be it Retohei, That this meeting endorse the action of the lower wards at their meeting of the 8th Instant, adopting the mode proposed by the upper wards at a previous meeting, namely, that each ward shall as? semble and elect live delegates, who shall compose a nominating committee.
