A WHIRLWIND.-Out of the south cometh -the whirlwind, and those persons wbo were noartbe courthouse about noon yesterday had an opportunity -of realizing the truth ot tl is assertion. Old Boreas was on a rampage, and several gusts of wind, which met at the inter? section of Brood and Meeting streets, raised the dust sky-high and whirled it along with incredible* speed. For a short time the air was completely darkened, and one of th% cars for. the old poBtoffice, which met the blast on the curve, was filled with dust, and the vehicle rad horses almost hidden. The suddenness of the blast took every one by surprise, and, be? fore windows could be closed, every building inth9 vicinity was supplied with more-dust than the inmates required. ' ? The Death of Judge Frort. This event, now our painful duty to chroni? cle, has filled the City of Charleston with a gloom and sadness, which will extend to every section ot the State. The Honorable Edward Frost was born in this city, and was the second son of the late Reverend Thomas Frost, a highly esteemed minister of the Episcopal Church. He was admitted to the bar at Charleston in the year 1823, and immediately entered upon the practice of the profession, which he pursued with great assiduity and success. Few men ever enjoyed such univer? sal popularity. He had no enemies, and all his acquaintances were friends. From bis youth he was beloved and esteemed by bis fellow citizens for the purity of his character, the elevation of his sentiments, and his unswerving truthfulness and fid ?lily. > He was, at an early period of his life, select? ed to represent Charleston in the Legislature, in conjunction with other gentlemen of the highest character and greatest ability, and was twice elected the chairman of the delegation, which was an uncommon evidence of popular? ity. In that body he stood foremost among the first, and filled with great acceptance and ability the then distinguished post of chairman of the Judiciary Committee of the House of ? Representatives. His administration of its im? portant functions was marked by abili'.y, learn? ing and judgment, and commanded the ap? plause and unqualified consideration ot the dis? tinguished lawyers who were from time to time bis colleagues in that committee. As an evi? dence of the estimation in which he was held I by the bar and the people of the State, after | twenty years' practice of his profession he was elevated, in the year 1843, to the law bench of j the State, where he sat with the distinguished [ men who then composed that bench-J. S. Richardson, J. B. O'Neill, Josiah J. Evons^A. I P. Butler and D. L. Wardlaw-and afterwards"! with such jurists as Withers, Whitner and Glover. ' His administration of this distinguished oiric e was marked by ability and learning,'and he added to these qualities suoh purity and in? tegrity as have not been surpassed by any magistrate upon whose shoulders rested the ermine of the judge. ' Judge iTpst resigned , his office in the year 1853, after ten .years' faithful servicert and re? tired in to private Ufe, which he adorned with the same virtues that distinguished him in the elevated station to which he had been promo? ted by the voices of bis countrymen. Yesterday morning the intelligence of his decease was announced from the bench of the 0>ut of Common Pleas, by bis Honor Judge Gio ver,-the presiding Judge, in the most feel? ing manner, and-in testimony of respect the court was adjourned until ll o'clock this day. We learn that a mee ling of the Bar will be held in the Equity Courtroom this day, at 10 o'clock, when further proceedings will be had by that body, for the purpose of offering a mutable tribute to the memory of the dis- j ticguished deceased. ?????MSMHM ? PREPARATIONS TO RECEIVE GENERAL HAMP? TON.-General Hampton has been invited to be present at the Seymour and Blair mass ratification meeting, which takes place onTri day next,.and it h> confidently expected that this distinguished officer will then address the assembled Democracy. A Reception Committee,, acting in concert with fhe State Central Commit toe, met last, avering to make arrangements for giving Gen? aro! Hampton o public reception upon his irrival in this city. The general programme >f the reception was discussed, and the oom nittee then adjourned to this evening, when hey will meet i sonfei noe with the chairmen )f the vT&zd Democratic Associations. It is loped that; a favorable reply from - General (fade Hampton will be roce i ved to-day, and the Seoeption Committee will then call upon the people to aid them in giving their favorite jhieftain a welcome that will prove the esteem n which he is held. . - COURT or GENERAL SESSIONS AND COMMON PLEAS.-HON.

MOSQUITOES.-Josh Billings has sagely re? marked "that mosquitoes are the most pestife? rous of all bug brutes, and if they were mode for a wise purpose he hos failed to discover it.'' There are few persons who have been torment? ed bj these sanguinary insects who have not concurred in this opinion heartily. East Bay, between Broad and Market streets, seems to be their principal feeding ground. The only known reason for this is the condition of the cellars on tie eastern side of East Bay. Every rain causes these to be filled with water, and it bas been found almost impossible to drain them thoroogbly. In colonial times this por? tion of the city was defended by a fortification, and the foundation of the curtain wall, which still remains, has, it is supposed, prevented a complete drainage, as the collars on the oppo? site side of the street are not affected to so great an extent. ONE COFF of THE DALLY NEWS for the Presi? dential campaign-four months-for two dol? lars cash. ALMOST ANOTHER TRAGEDY.-The Winns - boro News describes a rencontre between Sen? ator'J. M. Rutland and a reliable contraband. It says: "We learn that during his 'Saturday visit,' our honorable senator, J. M. Rutland, having got into an altercation with, one G iles Harrison, a freedman, first struck and then shot at tho said Giles, who having retired for a pistol,. returned and discharged it at the honorable Senator without effect. It is said that Mr. Rutland escaped the shot by blowing out the candle and falling on the ground. Had the honorable senator lost his life at the hands of this negro that he bas helped to raise to a condition of political equality with himself, doubtless many of our best citizens would have been cast into prison npon mere suspi? cion, ai in the DIU affair, without any shadow of evidence or pretext of law." ONE POLLAB will give you THE Tai-WEEKLY NEWS until after the Presidential election, i - A BOLO BCSGL\B OS -BROAD-STREET.-The' brokers who congregate, tm Broad-street have complained for some time that their offices have been entered and despoiled of ? portion of their greenback contents. Money is a scarce c?mmodfty, and even brokers, who ar? popu? larly supposed to possess a superabundance, do not bear their losses without a murmur. It frequently happens that an office is left wi th? ou t.an occupant for boors at a time, anda thief Who ia acquainted with this idiosyncrasy of brokers could easily step in. and appropriate the fonda on hand unmolested. The' thefts thus far have been made with marked modera? tion, as in several instances when thousands could have been taken the robber was content? ed with a few hundred. Thus far there has no clue been obtained that would lead to the conviction of any one, and the affair is stjll ?hroudsd in mystery. ONE COPI of THE TRI-WEEKLY NEWS for the Presidential campaign-four months-for one iollar cash._ THE STREET CEOSSINGS.-Council, some time since, appointed a special committee to confer with the Street Railroad Company on the feasi? bility of arranging some plan by which the crossings or intersections of the different streets in tbe upper wards, on the Une of the railroad, should be properly graded. Frequent complaints have- been made that loaded wagons and drays found it almost impossible to cross the track at those points on account of ita ele? vation, and the cars were often detained in consequence. The charter of the company compels thom to preserve the grade within a certain distance of the track on each side, and it was thought that, by uniting with the city lu th on tie j, a permanent well graded road bed could be obtained. The committee reported, ot the'last meeting of Council, that this arrangement had been p?rfeoted, andas soon ia estimates ar? made the contract will be awarded and the work commenced. The cross? ings will be laid with plank npon strong woodoo sleepers similar to.the old plank road, and will for the present' be confined to the EL in ?-street line, though it is expected that the ivorkontbe Butledge-street line will bo com? menced at an early day. FIVE COPTES of THE TRI-WEEELT NEWS for four months to one address for $4 25, or eigh y-five cents each copy. FISH.-The Macon Telegraph, alluding .? a ?omplaint made by the Courier that the Charleston market ia overstocked with fish, lays: i "It would not be so if the people and the .ailroads understood their interests. There is io surplus of fish upon the Atlantic coast of be Northern States-none on the seaboards of france and Great Britain. The Hake' of hah 1 n the ?British Channel is so great that it is ?aid every aero produces a for greater weight >f foc-d for the people than that of any acre of and. In some parts the amount is estimated it twelve times greater. "On our Northern coasts, though the amount >f fish annually taken increases at a prodigi? es pace, the price of fish increases. Since our .ecollection, it has risen from two cents to Af? een for ordinary varieties. Tho reason is that be railways are used to transport these fish Ear into the interior, and freights are so mode? sto that there is no extraordinary difference n price for fish at the wharf and fish five hun Ired miles inland. " "The coasts of the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida are perhaps more fertile in fish than any other regions in the United States; andyot rat a very few people oojoy this abundant sup? ply of wholesome food, though all are very ans? ons to get it. "Ibo reason is that the fishermen'and the railway men are behind tba times. The fish? ermen "do not pursuo tho business in au effi? cient way, and tho railroads charge too high freights. With proper co-operatiou between ;he two, the interior of Georgia would have abundant and constant supplies of wholesome Elah all the year round, and both of them would profit handsomely by the operation. "When Macon communicates directly with fche sea at Brunswick, there is a point which, os a fish depot, cannot be excelled on the 3outhern toast. We should like to know why ELsh cannot be delivered to shippers there for something like three to five cents per pound, and why it cannot bo run up here and sold, (to include ioe and expenses) for eight to ten. If something like this could be done, middle georgia would afford a fine and a large fish narket, and tbe people would haye a greater variety of food." JBTJSUSTKSS NOTICES. H. H.
