After the performance there will be dancing, and the whole .evening is likely to be one well worthy of the reputation or* our amusement-loving German friends. SHOES AND ASPHALT.- Some tims azo the Zeitung remarked that the shoemakers could not go to the lager beer saloons as often, since the asphalt pavement had been laid, inferring, no doubt, that thora would be less ^ear and tear of shoe "eather. We wonder if the editor thinks so now ? A WILD RUMOB.-A very wild rumor prevail? ed yesterday afternoon, in reference to a man having had bis throat cut, in Meeting street, near Market.

CAMERON, BARKLEY ?fc Co.-This well known and successful firm have removed thoir stock of goods to their fine new store, corner of J Meeting and Cumberland streets. The plan of this building has already been fully de? scribed in.THE NEWS.

Deve? reux. THE THEATRE.-"Under tjie Gas Light" w?9 ?epeatcit last uicht with great success to a large and respectable audience. The play is not ono which affords much opportunity for fine acting, but dopends vory much for its ef? fect upon good scenery and proper mechanical arrangements. Nevertheless, Mr. Gilbert's company did all the acting that was necesesry in good style, and, under the circumstances, the general effect was remarkably good. To? nightwe are to have the emolional drama of j "East Lynne." ACCIDENTS AND AMPUTATIONS.-At Red Bank on the Cooper River, a colored man, afow days ago, accidentally shot himself in the hand, which was so noo'a lacerated that it had to be amputated above the wrist. The operation was performed yesterday at the City Hospital.

Proceedings of the Board of Aldermen EIGHTH DAY-TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1868. [ [REPOSTED omCIiX.LT FOB THE NEWS.] The Bo ;rd met at eleven o'clock A. M., pur? suant to adjournment. Present-The Mayor; Aldermen Potter, Dc recf, Olney, Honour, Wbilden, Voigt, Howard, Moore, Wall, Cunningham, Marshall-twelve members. The journal of the previous day's sossion was read aud confiraxed. Tho Mayor then announced that the board was ready to proceed under Alderman Whil dcn's resolution of yesterdiy, to count the bal? lot?. Alderman Wbilden moved a reconsideration of the resolution referred to. The motion was adopted. Alderman Whildon then moved that the reso? lution be rescinded; which motion was also adopted. The Mayor-We are now in exactly tho same position relativ? to tho counting of the ballots as we were yeaterd?v. I have thought ot a plan which I think will give more satisfaction and at the same time fulfil the requirements of the law, and which 1 will now propose to the board. I suggest that tho boxes bo opened and the ballots counted one by one on the cen? tre table now used by the secretaries, and that, for tbe purpose of conducting the counting, ono Alderman be appointed to take the ballots out of the box, two to count, and tho rust of tbe Aldermen can keep tally. This, I think, will be counting the ballots formally before the board. <c A'derman Whilden moved the adcplion of the Mayor's suggestion, and it .vas so agreed. The Mayor appointed Alderman Wbilden to tako tho ballots from tba box, Aldermen ;'otter and McKinlay to Gaunt them, and Alderman Cunningham to keep the tally. The rest of th j Aldermen, he suggested, would also keep and verify the counc. The Board then procoeded to the count ot the ballots, beginning with the box identified as that of Ward No. 1.

Wright (colored), were committed to the House of Correction yesterday, in default of payment of a fine for being taken up drunk in the streets. A coat was stolen yesterday from the entry of a residence on Wentworth-street. A race botwcoa a policeman and a drunken man, in which the latter was speedily overta? ken, occasioned some commotion at the cor? ner of Broad and Meeting streets yesterday afternoon. Two negro noys indulged ia a street fight yesterday in Meeting-street, near the Market. One ol' them was ciptured by the police. A couple of old offenders were arraigned at the detective office yesterday, for purloining some bacon strips and pieces of flitch from a grocery house on East Bay. THE BAPTIST FAIR.-For several montbs past the congregation, and especially the ladies, of tho First Baptist Church of this oily have b?en actively engaged in preparations for a fair to assist in replenishing tao r exhausted church treasury. In coinaion with the other j cburcho3 of this iity, and pcrhap i even to a greater degree, this church susiained serious losses during and since the war. Tuc/ were even compelled for many mouths to close their house of worship and attend servies with other congregations. N <w, however, their church has been putin repair, acd they have engaged the services of a competent pastor, who is al? ready endearing himself to his flock. To sup? ply the funds for thsse necessary expenses they have projected this fair, and they appeal to their friends for aid, confident that they will deserve it net only by their needs, but by tho excellence of tho fair itself. Under tho conduct of such gea.lemon as th.-committee of managers, and poshed hythe exertions of the ladies, it must to a handsome entertain? ment, and it depends on a generous public to make it a pecuniary success. THE LEO TUBE T">-MORROW NIGHT.-A. treat is in storo tor the people of Charles? ton, with which there is nothing to com? pare. Dr. Irving's lecture oa Cock Bobin had a great run in its time, and it was really a masterpiece of quaint humor and homely wisdom expresed in pure .and elegant English. Bat, savo that both aro funny, there is no parallel between "Cock Bobin" aud tbe "Humors of Beconstruction." The merit of "Cock Bobin" was literary. The literal y merit of tin "Humors of Beconstruction," however great it may be, must be secondary to its his? trionic character. Tho loeturer is not a speak? er morely, but an actor. Having seen that gi? gantic farce called a "Beconstruction Conven? tion," observed and studied it in all its dotails, and appreciated fully all its absurdities and follies, Mr. Cowardin is able to impress the same upon his bearers, and to givo even those who have never seen a mongrel legislative as? sembly a tolerably clear and enjoyable idea of the ridiculous character of such a body. Tho lectrrewill be delivered at the South Carolina Hall. A NEW YOBK MERCHANT FALLS INTO THE TBAP OF A CONFIDENCE MAN AND IS FLEECED. A Mr. W. H. Barnett, of tho house of C. B. Wilhams & Co., No. 413 Broadway, New York, took passage on the steamer Saragossa for Charleston on her last ti ip, and so did a young man by tho namo of W. C. King, who profess? ed to bc very unsophisticated. On tho trip he insinuated himself into the good graces of Mr. Barnett, and on tho arrival ot thc steamer at this poit, he and his intend? ed victim took lodging at tho Pavilion IL tel, thoy occupying thc samo room, and during tho night King robbed Barnett of $23 and a fine gold watch. I When tho victim arose next morning ho in? formed King of his losses, and advised him to report tho fact to tho detectives; but this King declined, and replied that he had been inform? ed that the botter plan was to koop dark while be went in quest of tho stolon valuables. Off he went, and hiter awhile returned with tho watch, and said he had got it from a colored hand on tho Saragossa. But thia story would not go down with Mr. Butterfield, tho manager of tho hotel, who t-eut at once for a detective. As soon as King was arrested, he confessed the theft, and returned the money. He will bc reshipped to New York by the next steamer.
