MARX'S CHTJECH.-At; High Mas3 yester day at this church, Haydn's Imperial Mass in D was performed, the regular chou* being assisted by a number cf ou* .ikiUed amateur singers. The Mass was brilliantly sung, the choir executing the diffl cultflgure? and tutti with remarkable 3re, steadiness and precision. Thero are so many gems o' harmony in this Ma s that it is difficult to siogle out one or two as (specially worthy of praise, but it may be said that the soprano soli in the Kyrie, the basso sole Qm tallis, and th: choras Quoniam tu solus 1* tho Gloria, the Ft'am Fenfttri, solo and chorus, and the simple but majestic passage* beginning Et tJnam Sanctum ia the Ore Jo, tho Venedicius solo and tho Donanobis ?ero sang in a maanor ihat it would be difficult ir not im possible to surpass. The soprano soU in tho Kyrie and Ben --ii?'KS were delivered with singular purity of toce and earnestness of ex; rossion, the florid passa? ges in tho fermer being sung with exquisite fluency anJ graeo. Thc ur.an accompaniments were played by Mr?. Barool, the organist of the church, who showed in her management * * her instrument as much gool tasto and judgmci.. as musical know? ledge end BsilL On the while, it may be that no music, sacred or secular, has ever teen performed in Charleston inamere satisfactory manner than wasth i g.anc". ?iaes at St Mary's Church on yes? terday.

Midnight masj was celebrated ut >t. Paul's Church Christmas Eve. Very early masses wer? beard in tho other thurches. St. Michael's bells wero rung for durch yesterday mornirg far th.? firs* time, eu ChriitmaS, in a lorjg period. When the publie sohools gave vacation the other day, for thc Christmas holidays, the tcholar* at th? Normal SCCOC) i haunted Christmas ca: ola before dis. perslng. Ihe scholars of Trinity Church rchool receivod presents from a Christmas tr to Thursday, after ct tendiDg regular services. A bu^gy was smashed up yesterday at tte comer of King and Cannon-streets. The gonlleman inside escaped being hurt. The Cit. Railroad bas declared a quarterly dividend of $1 25 per share. The city cars did not run yesterday, and tho con? ductors and drivers had at least one holiday. Thc city was very moral yesterday, only two or three cases of intoxication h.ving boen repott.d at the Guardhouso-ana no other misdemeanors. A man on King-street yesterday gave his arm an undue swing and broko a pauo of glass, which he will havo to pay lor to- Jay. The night bef ;re Christmas a well dressed fema'e managed to secrete a doll under her skirt at Von san ten's, but was detected, and sho had to return the doll.

M.; thirty-two degrees, and at half-past'ten P. M.. thirty-two degrees. Thc weather for two days past ha3 been so cold that milk WBB frozea In doors and ice covered the salt ponds in the western part of the oity. E. Kloin bas fine canaries for sale at his fruit store, No. 329 King-street CHRISTMAS DAT.-A cold but bri'-nt and cheery day was Christmas in Charleston Tho cocks and juveniles ushered in th? morn with loud alarums. Fenny trumpets and roosters' throats did noise it much in unison, while are-crackers and torpedoes exploded a warlil o accompaniment. 1 he city was awake long before its usual hour, and by ten o'clock the streets were filled with people, some were hur? riedly making their tardy purchases of Christmas deings a*d some were on tLe way to chut ch, but by far ihe larger namber were bent on celebrating the day by making all the noise they possibly could. The churches ?ero thinly attended on account of the cold, but all day lon?, from early dawn far into night, there wero crowds of boys aud people ol.l enough to be wiser, who were perambulating the streets, shouting, blowing horns and trumpets, shooting crackers and rockets and making a rum? pus generally, without regard either to cold or f af'gue. If men would only pursuo happiness with the same tenacity of purpose and disregard ol difh culiy with which they seek after pleasure, Uu mi lensium would not be far efl. But moralizing aside, notwithstanding the gcnoral boisterous hilarity, thero were but few breaches of tho peace. Perhaps it was becaus? thc people could stand a quamtity of spirits with the thermometer at 25, as it was at THE NEWS office at 10 A. M., which would hive run them mad if taken at our usual temperature of "Oto 80. Wlnlever may have been thc cause, the fact remains that thc frolicking of yosterday did not run into riot, and Charleston can boast of one more Christ? mas celebrated aid enjoyed, aitrr tho good old fashion of our ancestors.

AP POINTED by tbe General Assembly of south Caro? lina, at its late session, will receive bids for the valuable Water Power known as tho COLUMBIA CANAL, until tno 5th day of JANUARY, 1869. The Canal is eight thousand six hundred and fifty four (8651) yards lon,', and the avenge fall for the first three miles is fourteen feet, commencing at ten feet, at Upper-street, in Columbia, and attaining nineteen feet one inch at Bridge-street; the remain? ing twomlleB, from Bridge-street io its mouth, com? mences at nineteen feet ten inches and attains a fall .f twenty-five feet. Pino building sites exist between the Canal and River, giving complote protection to buildings and machinery Irom freshets, tho State, through the undortTgncd, wid convey the Canal, and all its ap? purtenances, together with the right of way for IUD feet on each side of tbe c-ntre ot the Canal, to the purchaser. Compensation to the adjacent land own? ers for the right of way to bo made by the purchaser, on tbe same ju:-1 and cquitaolo toras that tbe right of w iy waa ct nveyed to tho Grcocville and Columoia Railroad Company by act rf Decomber 15,1845. This power has been accurately sutvojedby Pro? fessor John LeCou'e, cf tho soutb Carolin". Univer? sity. Ho estimates that by doubling Loo crtglnal ca? pacity of the Canal, as reouirod by tho act, that tho pow?r ?ecurod to Bridge-street will be 355 horse? I power, tho average head bein;? fourtoeu feet; and from Bridge-strict to ita mvuth 532 horse power, with an average head of twenty-one feet, and a cur? rent of one foot par second, With a cur .-ont of two feet per second tho powers would bo 710 and 1061 horse-power, and if the machinery Is not run at nigh! the power may bo doubled by accumulating water in the reservoirs. '.As tho fupply of waler." says Professor LeConto." "which may be turned from thc river into tho canal at its head is al nost unlimited, the canal can be on largcd to au extent commensurate with the domand for waler power. If le?irod, lt may be made to sup ply water to tho extent ot five thousand horsc-pow-jr er more. In fact, by very simple arrangements, one third or one-half, or even more, of tho whole water in Broad River might be turned Into such an enlarg? ed canal." Thia water power is within tho limits of tho City of Columbia, and contiguous to railroads which connect it with nearly every County in thc State of South Carolina, and with thc adjoining .state.* of North Carolina and Georgia, at,d their abundant supplies of cotton, noe, coin, .vt,eat, beef, pork, and ether vegetable and animal productions, and also in daily communication with the .cap i t.- ot Charleston, Sa? vannah and Wilmiugtou. T bo city is ?rn plied with gas and fino water; the climate Is salubrious and hoabhy, being above thc miasmatic reg! n; lands lu the vicinity arc cheap, and the sud fertile; and chore arc but lew sections in the south which present greater attractions lor settlement or residence. Thr water powor, from ila magnitude and advunU'gcs, is unoquallod by any in south Carolina, and unsur? passed by any iu the Sou-hern country. Tbc property will bo sold on tho following condi? tions, to wit: 1st, 'ibo purobaaer shall, within two years from tho dato of conveyance, complete the wid? ening acd deopening of said Canal to at least twice its original capacity, lits original capacity was lil taeu fest wido at tho top, eight feet at bottom, and lour (ret in depth. To double it, accor mg to Pro lossor LeConte's report, it wili require tho removal of 3C.107 cubic yards of earth, and 3200 cubic yards of stone, to Bridge-street ; and from Bndgi-a'reet to its mouth 22,176 cubic yards of earth, but no stone.] 'That thc same shall always be kop: opcu lor boating purpose*, free of charges, tor toll or otherwise, to where it is uow used L ' bi? will not interfere at all with the water power lor driving machinery, as boat? only doarei d as far as the first lock, near Upper street] That tho water ?hall not be permitted to boeome t-tagnaut, and that it shah uot be used lor other than hydraulic purposes.
