BtniOEED DEATH OF DETECTIVE COATES-It
was currently rumored yesterday that Detective

der case. It was impossible to trace the rumor to
any definite source, and we doubt it? authenticity.

Loss OF A BRITISH BARE.-Captain Cor?
nell, of the schoos er George H. Softers, at this port,
i rom Isla Kuataa, Honduras, states that the British
bark William Edwards, of and for Liverpool, from
Omca, with a cargo of fustic, went ashore on Rua
ton Island, on the 23d of November, and became a
?*otallos3. The crew was saved.
THE GBEENYTTT.E AND COLUMBIA RAILROAD
COMPAST.-We are authorized to state that the an?
nouncement in our issue of yesterday, that the
Greenville Itouroad Company would pay interest,
Ac, is not correct. The proposed payment ot six
months interest in January is conditional in Its
? character, and the publication as first made is liable
to mislead the public.
BASE BALL.-The Alerts of this city are will?
ing to pay the expenses ot the Forest City Club if
they will como here, or so to Savannah on the same
terms, or if these terms do not suit, they will meet
the club at Beaufort or any intermediate point.
The "Alerts" are warming up on Uie subject, and
feel very anxious to bring the natter to a bead, and
? decide the much talked of final game-the "rubber."
GENERAL HARRY MELL VILLE.-Such is a
name reported by the Nashville Union and Ameri
- can among the arrivals at the St. Cloud Hotel in
that city, aa of a gentleman hailing Lom Charleston,
. S. C. If there is any General Harry MeUville, of
. Charleston, or of South Carohna, we beg his pardon.
We don't know him. We rather su-peet that some
sharper is humbugging the St. Cloud.
ALMOST A FATAL ACCIDENT.-During: the re?
cent rainy spell, while a nurse was carrying a little
- child along Rutledge Avenue, opposite Mill-street,
her foot slipped, and the child tell on its head on thc
sidewalk. Fortunately the ground was so soft that
the cb?d's head penetrated it, sinking it up to the
shoulders. It was at once palled out, and suffered
no other inconvenience than having its eyes, mouth,
nose and cars stopped with mud until it could be
washed. Wo pr?same that it is to prevent more
fatal cons?quences from such accidents that the
Street Inspector has neglected to put shells on the
. sidewalks in that locality.

THE TIDAL DBAINB.-An observer complains
as fellows: "Allow me to remonstrate through
your paper against the exceedingly fi'tby practice of
emptying whole reservoirs of black mud into the
streets, there to remain a day or two to be tracked
about by horses and carts; sometime? a quarter of a
mile trom the original source. Such a practice is
most offeusive to the eye and nostri's, and muse be
deleterious to health. Carts might be swung lew
on axle-tree B, bon'at right angles near the hub, as
is done in Liverpool by tbe mercantile houses, or a
solid scaffolding might be crocted three or tour foot
high, on whi h to poise the present apparatus ; and
thus the buckets could be emptied at once into
closed carrs. Something should be done to remedy
the piesent evil."
A GERMAN CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION.--The
congregation of thc German Evangelical Lutheran
Church, cf this city, have determined to celebrate
Christmas night ia a way at once pleasant and profi?
table. Hibernian Hall has been engaged ?or the oc?
casion, and Professors Meier and Hoffman. Rev. L.

menlal pieces will be selected from Mozart

of mixed voices and national songs. Mich as a Kos?
ciusko's Farewell," the "Alp Horn," and the

known gentleman amateur, and the exercises will

A CRACK YACHT.-Tho yacht hl? a. of the New
York squadron, is lying off the Ba'.'ery. She came
into the harbor yesterday afterncor.. where she will
remain for a lew days, and then eon'inue her pleas?
ure trip down the Gulf to New Orleans sud other
points. She is eighty-two tons burthen, and of beau?
tiful proportions, and modelled and built by cele?
brated naval scientists. She is commanded ry Cap?
tain L. L Lirillard, a brother of the ianiour tobac?
conist, who is accompinie I by Messrs. H. Maitland
and Louis Mescir. The Eva is a ' crack" tailer, and
has borne off several fine prizes from fleet compeli
tors in Northern water-. Sh u!d any ofouryachlmen
like to board her they will bo courteously received.
FCBMAN UNIVERSITY.- We tire glad to learn
that the Furman University will be reopencJ on the
first of February, the measures necessary for this
end having been inaugurated by thc Board of Trus?
tees at th'ir recent meeting. Rev. J. C. Furman,
D. D., the accomplished aud beloved president of the
institution, will be aided in the work of instruction
byan able corps of professors. Professor Judson
will take charge of the mathematical department, m
which he has already achieved so bijh a reputation.
The vacancies havo been filled by the election of two
new oOicers, both from Virginia-Professor Toy in
the department of Greek, and Professor Harris in
thit of chemistry. The former is one of the fore?
most men in the count! y in the ancient and oriental
languages. Thc theological students in Greenville
will, doubtless, claim the benefit of his instructions
in Arabic and Sanscrit, if suitable arrangements can
be made tor the performance of this double ??erviee.
The latter, a brother of Professor Harris, of'he Rich?
mond College, and a dhUmgci-hed graduate of thc
Virginia University, has been tendered a kindred
appointment in Kentucky, but has concluded to set?
tle in our state.
Having secured a strong ficulty, the board will
vi?orouely pro6C-.uto au agency to make up the re?
quisite number of bonOs. About fifty are now need?
ed. Tho public will wplcame tbe assurance that the
institution is about to resume its work, and io bogiu
at a dt finite timo. The circumstances of oar con?
dition are >-uch aa to make the maint.-nance of estab?
lishments of learning, which ore not uudor State
control, a matter o- considerable importance. A
large proportion of our people may need to resort to
them ere long, as the only available sources of edu?
cation for their children. Their services, which have
been valuable heretofore, will be likely to provo in?
dispensable hereafter. All of them-Furman Uni?
versity and Wofford a'id Erskine Colleges-aro safe?
guards and guarantees which, for our childrcn'6
sake, must bc sit-fained.
REPORTERS' CRUMDS.-St. Philip's Church
needs an organist.
Several ladies have been employed at the Citadel
in tho civil department within the past two days.
It very probable that the mandamus and 7113 mar?
ran.''! will not be heard on Sa urday, the 19th, be?
fore thc MiDreinc Cou t in Columbia, but will bo
postponed until a later day.
During the lute, cold spell, the face of a clock ui the

There was an amusing pig chase ic Droud-streot
yesterday, which brought a smile on the face of
staid gentlemen, and ?oars of laughter from by?
standers generally. Various efforts were made to
head him off and check his course, but all ol no
avail, until he got caught in the wheels of a passing
buggy, when tho crowd thought they had bim in
"limbo," but he broke again, and dashed up Meet?
ing-street, leaving his parsu'.re far behind.
THE FAIR AT THE WIDOWS' HOME.-Last eve?
ning was not favorable to a successful opening of this
elegant entertainment, and yet it waa not forgotten
by those who feel an interest in the sacred cause in
behalf of which it has been inaugurated. ih:."'nr
is dee'dedly the best one the Home hus given yet,
and in the general and special getting up is a decided
SUCCOUR. The ladies who decorated tho room havo
displayed that refined tasto characteristic of the sex.
Delighting strains ?ail upo 1 the ear as one enters
thc fairy-like scene. Ihc cool and delicious bever?
age of "Jacob's Well" is the fi:st attraction.
The mun room is cire'ed with tables laboring nu?
der a multitude of rare articles. 'Tho fish of for?
tune, for a mere long, gives at los: a pcuny's
worth. To tho right ol the inhabitant of tan deep
are three et'igiers, ou whi -h are appropriately dis?
played handsome afghans, dahlia tidies, a wax
cactus, and Miss Virginia Lee, a Uno doll
and her complete wardrobe-soratogi trink,
