'The "Falcon," Captain Horsey, arrived here at daybreak yesterday with the largest assorted -cargo ever sont here from our Bister city, em? bracing a list of consignees not only in all de? partments of business in Charleston, but also for the principal depots in this State and Geor? gi a, showing clearly that a gain of twenty-four 'hours' time from Baltimoro to Atlanta and more Western points via Chartes'on, as com? pared with savannah, is becoming known and felt. Such an advantage must increase the .business ot these swift and wonderfully regu lax steamers. ? _ A Nsw DEVELOPMENT-ANIMAL MAGNETISM. .The operators of the Telogiaph Company in this city have recently effected, several changes in the arrangement of their material.

After some practice on this instrument the operator is en? abled to perform a variety of wonderful evolu? tions, and experts can almost fly through the ?air. The apparatus is extremely simple in its construction, but wa on properly manipul?t 3d the most wonderful results are attained. As it is the private property of the operators it is aot kept ia the main office, and is only used when the wires are not working. Nevertheless, the operators will take pleasure in exhibiting the "battery of animal magnetism" to the cu? rious io such matters. Ma.

We ask attention to an articlo which is pnb. fished in THE NEWS of this morning, from tho New York World of Saturday, oo the estimates of the cotton crop of the United States lately published by the New York Shipping and Com? met cial list and tho New York Financial Chronicle. It indica tes very Btrongly the want of reliabiiity in the -amount of tho growth as published in those journals, and we hope ?hat the discussion will be kept up until a belter system is arrived at in obtaining the sum total of the yield of tho United States. To the Southern people, who are at present raising cotton under so man;.- difficulties, and who aro largely dependant on a remunerating price for their resuscitation, it is of thp highest im? portance that over estimates of the growth of the article should not go forth to the world to prevent them receiving the just reward of their labors. A P?TITION FHOH rar. SBTPPINQ MEBCHANTS. A petition from a number of tho prominent shipping merchants of Charleston was pre? sented to Council at tho meeting last night, praying that body lo remit the tax recently imposed of "$1 on every $100 ot all freight and passenger lists of all steamers or sailing vos sels paid, or payable in this city, the pame payable monthly." This memorial stated that, by this onerous tax, the shipping interests would be impaired, and the giowth and pros? perity of the city would be seriously retarded. The new tax bill was framed from one in force in Savannah, in which, it is stated, a similar tax is levied. Ibo memorial has been refer? red to the Committee of Ways and Means, who will report at an early day, an i the petition will appear in the official proceedings publish? ed on Saturday. THE REPUBLICANS RALLYTNO.-According to a cali, issued by T. M. Holmes, chairman ot the Republican organization in Charleston County, meetings wer3 held in Wards Nos. 1 and 2 last night. In Waid No. 1, the old dele? gates elected some time since to represent the ward in a County Convention, were re-elected. Io Ward 2, strenuous efforts were made by the friends of Bowen and Mackey to prevent the representation of ?.he ward in the County Con? vention. Sheriff Mackey, who heartily en? dorsed the nomination of Bowen, offered a re? solution to the effect that the ward do not go into an election for delegates to the County Convention. As this resolution hod the effect of leaving the delegation previously elected by the ward in full power, it met with the appro? bation of the majority present. The County Convention meets this evening at the Military Hall, for the purpose of electing eighteen dele? gates to represent Charleston County in the Congressional Convention, to be held on Thursday evening at the same place. THE REV. DB. COBOOBAN.-The following ex? tract from an article in th? August number of the Catho?c World, a monthly magazine of general literature and sciencs, entitled "The Second Plenary Council of Baltimore," is a high tributo to a distinguished divino of | Charleston. After speaking of Archbishop Spalding, the writer says: And we are sure his colleagues will not blame us if we say that, under and after the Arch? bishop, Very Rev. James A. Corcoran, D. D., of the diocese of Charleston, deserves to be especially romero.1 ?r ed for bis industry, his erudition, his talents. The graceful style in whioh so many ot the decrees are couched is BO peculiarly his own that it can never be mis? taken; and it will make the Second Plenary Council remarkable for what, perhaps, would scarcely be expected in this remote country a Latinity that would graje even tho most finished documenta thal come from Rome her? self._ Biz-OF MOBTAXITY.-Return of deaths with? in the City of Charleston, for the week ending September 26,1868: CAUSES OF DEATH.

D., City Registrar AN APPU.T.TVG CALA MITT.-The Philadelphia Age has the following: Ic is our painful duty to record tho sudden death of Captain James R. Ko Hy, one of the mo3t expenonccd and bost pilots on the Dela? ware. Oa Friday afternoon In took charge of the English brig Sunny South, loaded with benzine, and Btarted down the river. Tho clouds were loworing, and heivily charged with electricity. There was cvjrv indication of a terrific storm soon to burst with fury on the river, and it was deemed prudent to bring the vessel to anchor off Chester. While tho storm was raging, the brig uuddauly exploded, and burst oat int > bright flamo. There wero twenty-five hundred and seventy-sevon barrols of benziue in tho vessel. Mr." Kelly was on deck, and the officers and crew wore below. There was a lighted lamp in tUo cab.n, and it is supposed that some of the gas escaped from the benzine, and, coming in contact with tho light, caused the explosion. It wis currently reported yesterday that the brig was struck with htihtning, but thia could not be tho case, as the explosion did not occur until half-past ten o'clock, more than an hour after tho Htorm had ceased. We know of Bevcral instances of explosions of benzine m tho holds ot vessels, which were truthfully attributed to lighted lampa in cabins. Thc Captain of tho bri& will probably lose a i arm. One of tho mates waa shockingly injured a boat the groin. Tho remainder of the officers and crew were not seriously injure 1. Capiam K illy was in? stantly kdled. Ono arm and both ankles were broken. His body was discovered floating on tba surface of the stream, not far from the doomed bri?, that now presented a mass of flame, that spread for some distooc3 upon the water. The remains ot the deceased were brought to Philadelphia yosterday, and taken to b..8 late residence iu the southern part of the city.
