Clifford & Ha the wea sold yesterday, at private sile, lot and residence corner of Broad and New streets, for $G0OO cash. The above is a good price, and shows a better inquiry for real ..estate investments. AN ICEBERG.-The report current on the .streets last evening that a huge iceberg had been seen off Charleston bar, was justided by the sudden fall in the temperature of the at? mosphere, but as far as wo could learn it had .no other foundation. All the thermometers by general consent went down below sixty de? grees, but tho points below that varied indefi? nitely. Overcoats and fires vere comfortable, -though not in general use, and tbe probability .last night was thal we would have frost this morning._ THE HANOVER-STREET FIRE.-M. H. Nathan, Esq., Chief of the Fire Department, made yes? terday a thorough examination of- the circum? stances attending the recent attempt to set ; fire in Hanover-street. There was no insnr ance on the building, and Francis and Honora .Sweeney, the owners of the building on which the attempt was made, and who were montion . ed in connection with it in Thursday's NEWS, were entirely exonerated from the charge of | -complicity in the affair. Mr. and Mrs. Swee? ney have been vouched for to us as persons of .good character, and it is to be regretted that ? any such mention should have been made ot -?heir names._ BURNING OF THE CAMDEN JOURNAL.-Our spe? cial correspondent iu Camden sends the fol? lowing account of the burning of the Camden -Journal : "The fire occurred between ll and 12 .o'clock on Monday night, and the building -with its contents was bumed to the ground. .Nothing waa Baved of books, pxpss, type or paper. There were two large and one job .press. The type was recently purchased. .Nearly the whole or the interior was in flame, .before the fire was discovered. No insurance. Tho loss falls hcavil ; on the Messrs. Pegues, the owners, and has deprived the citizens of a medium essential to them in making known .their wants. The Journal had quite a favora? ble circulation, having increased largely since .coming into the hands of the Messrs. Pegnes; but all this is by 'one fell swoop* lost to them, and that by the hand of tho vile incendiary. .Such, at least, is the universal opinion, and grounded on the fact that there had been no .?fire in the offioa for weeks. If the opinion is well founded, it may be but the first gan-we .hope it may be the last." THE FOLLOWING PERSONS desiring to become . citizens, will appear at City Hill thia morning, (Saturday,) at ten o'clock A H., precisely, viz : E. H. Ahrens, Fredk. Bengs, Julias Bok -sen, Thos. J.

A FAIRY REALM.-If "a thing of beauty is a .joy forever," then every visitor to the bazaar ?of Santa Claus, anglice Ton Santcu, must bo in 4t state of completo happiness, for he has everything to please the eye, the taste and tho -intellect. The spacious storo he now occupi.s has been refitted and refurnished. The front is both showy and attractive, as the large win? dows are filled with a hoterogenous collection of toys, fancy goods, toilet articled, <?c, the whole bemg so arranged as to produce perfect narmony? The shelves aud BIIOW cases in tho vinterior are filled with an endless variety of ar? ticles of bijo tttrie, fancy ornaments, games, tijB, confectionery, &c. Many of the toys aro made on scientific principles that will furnish .amusement tor the older and wiser heads. Tho planchette, which records thc thoughts and is deemed by tho superstitious to be con? nected with the evil one, is perhaps the most interesting of all games, and is the most popular amusement iu vogue At the North. Mr. Von Santen has, in addition, a large as? sortment of fireworks, which can be purchased in lots to suit the country trade. By far tho most useful article in bis establishment is thc parlor gymnasium. This must bc seen to bs appreciated, and all who vain;? a physical edu . cation will at once procure one. Their ex? treme simplicity commends them to every one, and they have received the highest encomiums of the physicians. This realm of Fairie must, however, be seen to be appreciated, and we advise all who wish to spend au hour profitably, and to get rid of both their ennui and greenbacks, not to delay . a visit to Santa Claus' Bazaar. REGISTER AT ONCE, AND IN THE PRECIS* WHICH TOD" NOW RESIDE.-Now or never, se your right to vote at thc election, which .viii placo ou the third proximo. Registratioi gins to-clay, und inly three days arc allo Nine thousand persons must register I names aires!), or make an examination tc if they aro already correctly registered, must bo doue in three days, and there are 1 toen places of registration, making an ave of over two hundred persons daily at i place of registration. Asain, we repeat, rc ter at once, and be sure thal your narr registered at the poling pltce of thc pr?t in ichich you reside. SHIPMENT OF Aims SOUTHWARD.-The : York Sun makes the following statement, ir! may be correct, but, if eo, points to a very ferent inference from that formed by the S "Several individuals are now in iNew York gaged in purchasing and shipping anus to Southern States. One of them is from Te another from Georgia, two are from Sc Carolina, and two or three others are from. bama, Louisiana and Tennessee. The arti they are purchasing are mainly revolvers repeating or breech-loading rifles; all tba ni ela of muzzle-hading weapons arc discarc and the purchasers are understood to pn j short barrels to long ones. Two thousand volvers were sent South iu one consign.n three weeks ago, and shipments of two, th and five bundled revolvers aro unplcasai frequent. The Charleston steamer last w took a dozen cases of hardware, which was ally a lot of breech-loading rifles destined private parties in that city. One dealer inti arms admits that he has more order.- than can fill for the present, but professes not know where the weapons he sells are going. THE THEATRE-ROMEO AND JULIET.--! benefit of Mr. John Templeton k>st night w well attendad, and the ladies formed a vc flattering portion of tho audience. The pl of Romeo and Juliet has always beon a lai rite in this city, and the Charleston pub have been fortunate in opportunities ofseei: it performed by some of tho most c?l?br?t cctorB and actresses on the American etap The Templeton troupe last night exceeded t expectations of even their warmest admire by their rendition of this trying and diffici drama. John Templeton eppeared as Rome but Mis Alice Vane as Juliet waa, of course, tl chief object of attention and of criticism, ai sha passed through the ordeal uuscatho She was thoroughly acquainted with her pat and, like atme acticsa as she is, she scorn? to forget her own individuality in her pertci impersonation of the character of her.iolc. The minstrels were, as usual, highly appr ciated and badly applauded by tbs lovers fun. Their principal attractions, however, fi beyond all their jokes and masquerade, wei undoubtedly the graceful figure androguis smile of Isabel Vane. The performance would have been botter ci joyed on the part of the respectable portion i the audience, if the boys in tho pit had bec made to behave themselves and not allowed I stamp and yell at the most unseasonable time Douglass Jerrold's popular comedy of lilac Susan, and the new minstrels, form tho pn gramme for to-night. _ MUNICIPAL GOSSIP.-On dit that the Ridic; cohorts, hitherto divided, aro gathoring i united force for one grand charge upon th city government. Until a recent date, Bowe and Jenks were in the field for Congress, an there was a bare possibility that the Democn tic Domin?e might run in between the two an carry off the bono of contention. Bowen's part felt a grudge against Jenks for opposing ihoi leader, and they were taking their spite out c him by supporting a candidate for the Mnyoi alty iu opposition to hit' patron, Pillsbury Here, again, was a ghost's chance for the Dcm ocratB. But it is said now that Jenks with draws his opposition to Bowen, and Bowel withdraws his opposition to Pillsbury, am Pillsbury, to compensate Jenks for bis c'.cvo tion, promises to aruko him City Treasurer This makes Pillsbury so cock-suro of hi? elec tion that, in the plenitude of his power and tin fullness of his heart, he promises thc office o Chief of Police to three different iudiriduals each of whom has tho satisfaction of knowini that he has made the same promise to thi two others. Hoyt, the wagon-master of Kinj Sickles, is ODe of those happy individuals wh< bas b.en favored with ono ticket iu three foi the office of Chief of Pohcc. It is also said that Sanator Sawyer, whose great abilities are not entirely engrossed with the national Senate and revenue, has contle scended to dip his huger in ibo little municipa pie. Having a friend eifheted with a longing desire for the big plum which Pillsbury imagines that be already feels under hie thumb, the honorable aenitor proposod to thc black man's candidate that, if he would with? draw from the contest iur the Mayoralty ic favor of that longing friend, ho would use hie mfluenco iu obtaining for bim the United States R-.-vonuo Collectorship. But Pillsbury was too old a bird to bo caught with chaff. He knew that the collectorship did not belong to Mr. Sawyer, but affecting that ho did, ho ex claimei, in grandiloquent style : "Sir, I would rather be Mayor of Charleston than Prosident of the United States!" Such was the town talk yesterday. THE COU.NTT COMMISSIONERS.-The writs of quo warranto sued out by D. H. Chamberlain, Attorney General, in behalf of tho County Commissioners against the Commissioners of Main Roads aud the Commissioners nf Public buildings, were heard yesterday before Justice Williird. Messrs. Pressley, Lord and Inglesby, appeared for ihe Commissioners of Public buildings, and put in an answer to thc effect that no domand had been made upon them since the passage of the act establishing thc office of County Commissioners, and that al? though a demand had been made after the election and before tho passage of thc act, they were advised that the parties making thc demand had no right to tho office. They ex? pressed themselves ready to abide tho decision of the court, and to surrender the office to tho claimants if thc court decided that the claim? ants were entitled thereto. C. Richardson Milos, Esq , appeared for the Commissioners of Main Roads, aud filed an an Bwer setting forth that Commissioners of Roads existed in this State from colonial time3, the first general act regulating the subject being passed in 1721. Tho law o en the- subject were from time to time renewed and varied, until 1843, when thc Commissioners of Main Roads for Charleston Neck were expressly excepted from thc Road act ot that year, and no general laws relating to Commissioners of Roads havo ever since held to apply to the Commissioners of Main Roads for Charleston Neck. The latter are elected by the City Council of Charleston, and in the aiopo of their powers and duties, as well as in the runner of their election, diff.-r widely from every other j'oard ol' Road Com? missioners in the Slate. That they ar : not in? cluded in the act establishing County Commis? sioners, Dor in the section of tho constitution relating to tho same subject, and that, there? fore, tho Board still has a valid existence under the laws of tbe State, and (ho Commissioners are :-.uuud to execute the trust reposed in them for tho public good. In addition to this they mike tho same points as the Commissioners cf Public Buildings thai, they had never rerused to surrender sinco thc passage of thc County Commissioner act, and express themselves willing to abide the decision of tho court. Judgment in both cases was reserved. SPECIAL MEETING O?

STEAM ROASTED COFFEE.-Consumers will do well to note the following advantages : 1st. By this process coffee loses less in weight than by thc old tin nan arrangement or Rotary roasting humbug-our process losing aboat oivjOtceu per cent, the other from twonty-five to thirty. 2d. In roasting by steam all thc in; purities and bitterness of coffee are entirely got ten rid of. 3d. By this process all tho aroma is retained, which accounts for the increased weight of steam roasted coffee, when by thc old one a great deal of it was lost. Fer instance, a housekeeper roasts a pound or more of coffee, as soon as the borry b3gins lo brown tho aroma c?caping on all sides, inform? tho neighborhood of what is geing on, and seldom docs Ehe reillze moro than three-fourths of her investment. By our process the neighborhood i8 not beneiltted, but thc comfort? of your brcaklaat table are increased; ?nd poor cook, if you will buy your coffee ready roasted aud ground from us, will be saved from many a scolding. Several years ago, when this system was Cr?! In? troduced, uU sa J it would not do for so small a placeas Charleston. But the best evidence that it did succeed was the imruen-e quantities ol coffee handled m this factory, and also thc total disup pearanco cf all thc packaitoi of gilt-wrapped trash which, under the namo of coff.c, flooded this city. Before tho war nearly all ol' tho best families were our patrons, and daring tho wa-, when the pure berry could not Vc obtained, onr ol'I null su.-iaiucd its reputation; for we were oLen assured, when we informed our customer- that wc had boen compelled to substitute corn ior coffee, that they cou'd not be? lieve us, ?B thc irliclc wc then were putting up was pure J&T* C.
