ABESST OF ESCAPED PEISO?TBSS.-The vigi? lant detectives yesterday succeeded in tracing up two of the colored prisoners, Thos. Saspor tas and Daniel Middleton, who escaped on the general jail delivery which occurred some months since. They were rearrested and com? mitted to jail, though not without some diffi? culty, as Middleton resisted the officers. These ! fellows have been skulking about the city for some time. EVERY Doa HAS HIS DAT.-The records of the Guardhouse show a number of complaints entered by different persons against sundry savage dogs that had attacked them in their daily walks abroad. On Saturday two of these ferocious canines were captured and brought to the Guardhouse. After hearing the charges preferred, the Mayor issued the laconic order, "Let the doge be killed." This sentence was carried into effect yesterday morning. One of the dogs died without a murmur, but the other, having some suspicion of his impend? ing doom, broke from tho yard and rushed to the iron gate at the main entrance. He suc? ceeded in forcing his head through the bars, but while in this osltion was dispatched by the policemen's duns, though not without con? siderable remonstrance on his part. This dog had bitten a little girl severely in Broad-street a few days previous. THE CATERPILLAR.-Accounts from the sea island s are very conflicting. lu some sections the fields are _ represented as being covered with caterpillars, while others have been alto? ge th er exempt. Tho planters on Edisto, John, Wadmal aw and James Islands j report that the caterpillar is very prevalent; but the sea islands lower down the coast are said to be free from the insect plague. North of Charleston, in Chrirt Church Parish, and along the coast the caterpillar cry baa not yet been raised, though .ibero are few plantations without occasional specimens. Notwithstanding the presence of tho T.-orm, no very serious damage is yet re? ported, and it is to be hoped that the accounts have been exaggerated. The oldest planters do not remember the recurrence of a caterpil? lar plague two years in succession. But this season they have appeared folly ten days ear lier than last jesr, and have so much longer time in which to gobble the growing crop. . ATTEMPT TO BBXAS JAIL.-On last Thursday, about dusk, a determined attempt was made by several prisoners confined in the secoad story of the jail tower to break out. The move? ment was beaded by a colored man whose term of confinement would have expired ia a few days. He had by some moans procured a case knife, and succeeded in sawing the bolt of his cell asunder. The same kind service waa re n dered to the other prisoners confined on the same floor, and-they-wore at work on the binge of die door that leads into the rotunda when they wnre discovered and their attempt frus? trated. *- It was their ioteutioa to have effected their escape, before ll o'clock, whan tho night watch was set. They-also designed a general jail delivery, and, if necessary, to kill.the jailor Bud'hm assistants. The prompt measures taken by Mr., East orb j prevented any further outbreak, and tte prisoners were more secure? ly coffined than bofore. j . ?inceithe removsl of the military guard, the jail In mot ca have become very obatre perons. Thane are-?TJ many desperate characters 'con? fined in the jail at present, that' an armed guard ia almost a necessity. The colored pris? oners are by far the moat troublesome, and ahowrconaiderable ingenuity in attempting to escape. - I ) HOTEL ABEIVALS,"August 9-Chirtes!on Mo? tel_C. W. Townsend, W. P.

THECBTEB OF CHARLESTON. -Under thia head thc Darlington Southern ox says: It is -curious to eit at the window of a sum? mer morning and hoar the cries ot the negroes vending fian, fruit and vegetables through the .streets. Tue hubbub they raise is wonderful, and the voices of some of them sound like no? thing ia heaven or on the earth. ^ j '. Hero come?'a great stalwart negro'with'a tray of fish on his shoulders. In a voice that is positively alarming he roars out '"fish, fish.; fish!"-each time louder than the last, until, he get? to a savage yell. "Coma out, buyers, ! herta's your fish; I want your money, I tell you.. Don't yon hear me huyera? Here's your silver' fish with gold eye: come out, ob! como out! jteli- JDBJ* : And thus ,he .kseps up the horrid dip until his voice is. lost in tho distance. . ' Hore oom os a miserable specimen of a country negro, like the man''wno married the Saiden aU forlorn," be IB "tattered and, torn. e carries a few vegetables ia a basket over which he makes as great an outcry as if he had something choice to dispose of. "Here's your rich.ripe, juicy tomatoes, 'buyers; giving away for nothing. Here'd your sewoe beans;; -con? Oat and pit your okra, olera. 1 I tell vou, ob, okra, okra, I tell you." And thus be goes on 8CR-aining until bia voice ia lost in'the dis Here comes two men with som watenn??-i > o?a in> cari "Plo* watar million', buyers, you hear thom ; Fresh and fine, j u -t off the vine: Try them, try, try, as I pass by." And thus they keep up singing thia, ditty, until they, too, pass oat of hearing. -These Criqa awake you early in the morning, and are: kept up at intervals through the day. The fThirkwtoi riana are used to rn? sounds, but to me who hears these savage yells for the first -true, ie ia somewhat alarming. Through bot ian and cold rain these, "freedmen" plod their weary way, while starvation and want stares them ia tie face. Bot'work they must, for the Hands that "set them free'' neither feed nor ck?toe them, and with the grim giant poverty they are waging a fleroe nod, in manv oases, an unsuccessful warfare. THE FASHIONS.-We continuo to give our lady roadera the latest wrinkles in the matter of dress. The following is the List Fashion bulletin from New York : A very decided change-ba? token place of late io the contour winch it ia necessary that a lady of fashion should present. But a short time since dresses designed for both in door and out door purposes were worn almost, if cot altogether, plain upon tua hips-scarce a told or gather being allowed. No iv the panier - the approach of which across the Atlantic had been heralded forth by fashion writers noni Paris - has been inaugurated, and is now no uncom? mon sight. The rapidity with which a aew style becomes "all the rage" will probably cause this novel fixture to be a sine qua non in the adjustment of a lady's dress ere the lapse of a musu longer time. Not so novel a fixture either, is the said pinier. Many who have not attained the age of Methuse? lah, nor indeed ever expeot to, remember with distinctness the " Bustle " of former days; and the panier is really a revival ot that gone-by appendage. With the ten-lency to extremes so observable in th? chantres of fashion, it is now the feminine ambition to appear large lust where lately every art was made use of to look sm.IL In additiou to thc pannier overskirts are frequently made to puff ss much as possible, and of these the diffjrent varieties of shapes are altogether indescribable aud almosi endless, Some have the appear? ance of rouuded aprons in front aid behind, squaring ff into a j acket, the Whole complet? ed with ends. The skirt of the dress has fre? quently the exact samblance of a petticoat, as the material is entirely d.fieront, aud generally o\ a much lighter oolofed material. Over this, and evidently with the intent that thc differ? ence shall be marked, an upper skirt is worn. This is ofteo looped all the way round, while over tho back the long-bowed ends of a Marie Antoinette fichu fal's. worn low over the bod dice. The general .'enjth. ot au out-door dress is about throe inches from the ground, and % very favorite trimming for the pottom of the skirts are frills, from one to an indefinite num? ber, according to the taste of the wearer. As regards in-door dresses, the trams are aot Suite so long as formerly, and at the same time ley are fuller behind. Sleeves remain much the Mme, and this can also be asserted of an approach to celestial oreatlons of nothing as anything can possibly be. Jet, which bas been so much in vogue, bas quito disappeared. V [OOMMUNIOATIONl] Tbe Naval Store Business Of Charles? ton and Wilmington. STATEMENT SHOWING THE DTPFEHENCES BET'* EEK THE CHARGES FOB INSPECTION AMD GTJAOINQ 07 NAVAL STORES IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CABO LINA, AND WILMINGTON, NOBTH CABOUNA. The charges in Charleston are : For inspec? tion and classification of spirits turp?n tine, per barrel, sixteen cents; for gonging, ten cents. Total, twenty-six cents per barrel. Inspection and classification of rosin; fifteen cents per barrel. There ' ia no rate for inspection and classification of crude-the inspector being the purchaser of all shipped to this market, and, therefore, does not charge for his services. The oharges in Wilmington. N. G., are : For inspection and classification of spirits turpen? tine, five cents per barrel; g naging fire cents. Total, ten cents per barrel. Inspection and classification of rosin, nine cents per barrel; inspection and classification of crude, three cents per barrel. We therefore observe a difference in favor of Wdmington market of j sixteen cents per barrel on spirits, and six cents per barrel on rosin. This, together with the prices in Wilmington, which are always in ad? vance of Charleston, ia tending io draw all spirits and rosin made on the line of] the Northeastern Railroad to Wilming? ton, and we think an earnest effort should be made to retaia it for Charleston. There .are par ties along the line of the above mentioned road shipping to Wilmington, where they obtain better prices and less expenses than by shipping to Charleston, and others are determined to do so unless some? thing ia done to relieve them from the high rates charged by th id inspec? tion monopoly of Charleston. The vast pine barren of South Carolina is ah important item to the commercial prosperity and interest of j Charleston, and every facility should be ex? tended te induce parties to develop its re souraes. There are many who are deterred from entering into the naval store business on account of the dullness of the Caorleston mar? ket, and the exorbitant ratea charged for in epection. We will admit that a nmnbar of distillera seeking relief reside aloag the Une of the South Carolina Railroad, and they will be compelled | to g ivo Charleston their produce. But whilo the receipts over this road for 1867 was only eleven thousand nine hundred and twelve (11, 912) b?rrela, the receipts for the same period over the Northeastern Railroad was thirty-four thousand and seventy-two (S4.G72) barrels. (See official reporta of thia company.) Hore than three times the amount of the South Carolina Railroad. We caunurf^ believe that the mer? chants and business men, who have the inter eats of Charleston .at heart, will suffer this branch of commerce to be drawn away from where it rightly belongs. TAB HEEL. [We understand that a petition upon this subject has been presented to the City Coun? cil, and we hope that it will receive speedy at? tention. Charleston, should not be behind Wilmington in- commercial liberality. Our naval store trade should be encouraged by low ieee end good prices, not checked by high oharges and a restricted market.-ED.
