Moreland purchased forty-three thousand dollars City of Charleston six per cent, stock yesterday, the largest amount at sixty-three eerie. The same purchaser Offered afterward? sixty-four ceats, which offer was declined. This is an ad vance of at ?ei?t three per cent, on the quotations of the day before. Tra: BELL RINOEBS drew auother large au? dience last evening, and furnished, as they have dene on former occasions, melody of the sweetest kind, in the manipulation of their pure toned bells, harp and silver cornets. The clever artists ?bo compose this talented corps have, since their advent into our city, boen recognized by the liberal patronage of ap? pr?ciative audiences. Ihey give a matinee for schools today, and one more performance to-night. THE ED?OSTBEE FXBE Cosrj?AST.--Tbo peo? ple of Kingstree have wisely formed a Ire company for the protection ot their houses tad property, but they are unable without assistance to procure an engine tor the usc of th? company. In this dilem? ma, Mr. Solomon Beutschner, the president of the compat y, has come to Charleston to solicit subscrip? tions. We coa io.nj him and his cause to the pub? lic generally, ana especially to the merchants who have customers in Kingstree, and also to the insur? ance agents. CtfcBS AND STABS-The amount of business before tho Mayor yesterday was rather small: Fernanda Conuer. clored, arrested on suspicion of larceny; no proof; nn?on?r di-charged. SamL Middleton, colored, for having Mr. Ten nent's carpet in his possession; na proof of larceny; prisoner discharged. Frederick Behrman, white, for buying a stolen watch; no proof ; dts:harjed. John Cheney, white, for keeping a junk shop wi b out a license. Fined $10. THE JEWISH PABSOVEB.-T da great festival of the Hebrew Church, ia commemoration of the exodus of the Israelites ftom Egypt, during which time they subsisted on unleavened bread or matzos, commenced last evening and will continue eight days. The ftr-t two evenings' exercises appropriate to the occasion are held in the synagogues and in the houses of the Hebrew families, the services hav? ing particular reference to the trials endured by the Israelites, and then: final deliverance from the hands of the Egyptians. During the Passover unleavened bread only is used, which is sjmbclical of the fact that in their hurried exodns the Israelites did not have time to prepare raised bresd.^ One important feature cf the occasion is the dispensation of alms to the ueedy, without respect to denomination. OUB NEW YOBS STEAMSHIPS.-Amone other inducements which are not only steadily and surely securing for our city the trade which caused ber prosperity before the war. but are largely extending the field of her influence, are thc admirable lines of steamships now plying (rom this port te the various Northern cities. The character of the vessels, their regular rime, able officer?, and freedom from delays and accidents, are giving to them a carrying trade of large and growing proportions. The New York steamers particularly, we are pleased to learn, are obtaining good freights in this direc? tion, the consignments being for various points in all the States, South and West abe steamship Charleston, Captain Berry, which arrived here criy on Friday mornirg, had an excellent freight and a good passenger list, as well as a beautiful steam fire engine lor our Georgia neighbors. I his superior steamship makes gonerally quick and regular time, and both the ship and officers enjoy a high populari? ty. The steamships of this line leave each port punctually on Tuesdays and Saturdays. REPOKTEBS' CBUMBS.-There were confirm? ations at t!'c German and English Lutheran churches yesterday. The churches, yesterday, were well attended, and the day had rather a Sabbatical appearance. The hotols still continue crowded with travellers The steamer St. Helena '.?ill make an excursion trip around thc harbor at four o'clock to- lay. Dr. Hicks will prea.-h in the English Lutheran Church at eight o'elock to-morrow night, instead of half past seven o'clock as heretofore.

TA.-At cn early hour yesterday morning, the steam? ship Charleston lauded at her pier, and soon ofter the Steam Fire Ergiue Ge', rgia, for the Independent Fire Company of Augusta, was landed. As soon as she was got iu readiuess to move, her draps were manned I v the delegation of the ".Etna," which had patiently awaited hei arrival since the night previous, and the delegates from Augusta belongitg to the company. She was carried to thc neat and commodious quarters of the .Etna. Queen-street, where the numbers took ber :n hand overhauled her and put her in tr-m for her journey homeward. The ?Etna's did their best to make their Augusta friends leel at home by ? ndeavonng to show them every courtesy in their power. After dinner the drags were again manned and the Georgia hiuled to the South Carolina Railroad depot for Bhfpjentto Au? gusta. The Augusta delegation returned to the ?Etna house, and in the evening they spent a good time over a rousing bowl of punch, pledging friend? ships and cementing tics. We learn that the Augus tians will leave to-day, and it is hoped will carry with them agreeable recollections of their brief stay here, where every effort was made to render their sojourn pleasant._^ _ "THE NINETEENTH CEKTUH?."-WS learn that a monthly magazine is soon to be issued in Charleston under the auspices of a "Bound lable" coterie ot gentlemen well known in literary, profes? sional and mer ontile circles. The wO'k will bc di? rectly in charge of Bev. W. W. Hicks, D. D., and "Personne" (F. G. De Tontaina, Esq..) and will aim to supply a vacant place on the literary tables of our Southern houses. Our ablest writers will fur? nish entertainment and instruction, BO that iu both a local and general sense thc magazine may be as at? tractive as possible, lt is proposed to make the .?BoundTable" department specially interesting to the merchant, the agriculturalist and scientific man; while a miscellaneous collection of facts and fancies will constitute the frost work of this literary plum pudding. Dr. Hicks, although not long a resident of C!.*"rleston, has won both admiration and respect, as well by his learning and personal charm as by hiB rare and torching eloquence; whi'eMr. De Fontaine, as a fluent, original, graphic Southern writer, has few if any equals in the woild of periodical litera? ture. These two gentlemen will be the main props of the new work, and we sincerely hope that, as a home enterprise, the "Nineteenth Century" will have all the encouragement and support it deserves. We may add that one of the most attractive fea? tures of the new magazine will be "Bem''nlscences of the Bivouac and Battlefield," to be written by 'Tersonne."_ MoBTAurr OF CHABLESTON FOB 1868.-Be? low is a condensed statement of the mortality of Charleston tor the year ending December SI, 1838, as taken frcm the annual report of the City Begis trar, which was submitted to Council at its last meeting. It is worthy of rema:* that although the population ot the city is almost equally divided be? tween whites and blacks, the mortality of the blacks was moro than double that of the whites. The Registrar's estimate of the population of the city at 35.0C0 seems too low. At the last election the number of votes cast was 10,000, and making all reasoLiole allowance for fraud, at the usual propor? tion of voters to population, that would give us a population of at least 40.000, an J more "probably 45.000. The proportionate mortality would then te one in 33 or one in 37, instead of one in 29: Total nnmber of deaths during the year.1203 CLASSES.

CHESTER, Sorra CAB*LIKA, January 6, 1869. Dear Sir-I hire jost received a communication from Geo. W. Grafflin, Esq., Treasurer of Patapsco Guano Company, requesting my opinion of the "PA? TAPSCO," to be sent direct to yon-which I take pleasure in doing, as I tinoerely believe that it is the best fertilizer now in use. I have tested ita merits fully, and find those who have used lt alongside of other popular fertilizers, do net hesitate to give it the preference; lhere are aa many kinds in use here as there are morcbants wno deal in it. No two houses recommend the Rame kind, but during the last season I had a good opportunity of Introducing the "PATAPSCO" GUANO to some extent. I gave to ten (10) different planters COO pounds Or/Alto to put each on one acre of land, and agreed to take part of the product for pay. They all succeeded well. I got nearly 100 per cent profit from the ten acres, and the planters arc satisfied that they got 50 to 100 per cent, more than they could have expected on thc samo land without the GUAMO. I also sold email quantities to some twenty or thirty planters, who tried it on all sorts of land. Seme of them certify to wonderful results, and every ono of them have engaged to take more for thu cowing season. I expect to sell ten times the amount which waa taken last season. I began in 1807, and have not hoard ouo man say it did not over-pay him for his outlay. In some re? spects lt must be supciior to the Peruvian Guauo. For instance, you eau mix the seed with tho PATAPS? CO, and thc Peruvian must be oovcred before plant ing. The "PATAPSCO" acts at once upon thc sprouts, as soon as it comes from the seed and makes it start right od growing, and prevents thc sickly stage whieh cotton, without the stimulus, has to go through-you know this. For two or three weeks the cotton plant is in a condition which is so pre? carious that no planter can say that bc has a certain stand 1 believe tho "PATAPSCO" secures a better and more healthy staud than can be had by tho ap? plication of any other fertilizer. 1 speak from ex? periments made for two years. I have p lau ted a lit? tle cotton for thu purpose ol watching thc result, and am Stirj that rolling the seod in PATAPSCO QOAXU v.-iJl secure au carly aud healthy ilaud of cot? ton, which is like gutting a good start ia any kiuu ot race. I would recommend 25.) to 30t) pounds to the acre. I malo GOO pounds lint from one acre by planting Otu pounds ol "PATAPSCO," whieh tn.ido 200 pouuds tho year bciore without it, and the s.'a.-ou of 1807 was better for colic u than 1863.
