Ihe German Fire Company have boen for some time discussing the purchaso of n " stoamcr." The tidal drain, fronring on Hayne-street, in Meeting, bas been arranged ter usc on the 27-h inst. Is it not astonishing that there are so many co! or ->d persons idle on the streets and around the court bouse, when there are always advertisements in THE NEWS, calling' lor laborers ? The tidal drains in Smith and Queen streets, which are now op n to be oleanod, are nearly choked np io the top of the arch, and the wonder isthat they ever worked at alb As UNFOBT?HATE CBEATUBE.-A largo crowd gathered at the hotels jesterday. after the arrival of tho trains, to gratify o morbid curiosity to gaze at an unfortunate white man, by the namo of Smith, from Georgi i, who layiu a wheelbarrow, exptcss'y made for bis couveyance. on a wagon.

He Fought admittance to the differ? ent hotels in the city, but havijg no accommoda? tions adapted to him, th?y could not receive him.

This n>us*c di m in i!" a (borough cultivation of the voice, and abovo nil steadi? ness aud evenness of slylc, and M'ile Durand may be ncgnttui 'ted that .-he chose for the opera to be porformed last night oue which would show to thc lull her own skill, anil In which she could bo seconded by artists so able and so cons ient:ou< as Petrilli, tarli, and the well-nigh i- compa'aVle Brlg noli. M'lle Durand played Rosini last night for the first time, and so mark-d a new epoch in her artistio life. But the day should be distinguished by a white stone, for the performance throughout was in every way satisfactory. M'llcDuirandaathcfairben?j?aa?re, is the fi:st of whom to speak. Doubtless the peculiar circumstances under which thc performance was given took.away th? ncrvousnt ss incidental to a first appearance, and lout additional piquancy to her manner, and a gnat r fluency to her voice. But. however this may bc, it ls certain that her Rosina \r-. far superior to her Isonora, and even lo her Norina.. The actirg throughout was charming, and the gra ad aria Una Yocepoco fa was sung in a manner which ls seldom equalled in these dogene.-ato days. In the "6?1 ging lesson" scene that in which prime donne exercise their vocal chevaux de battaille-ll'ile Dui and sang Eherl's Erho Song with exquisite neatness ari? clearness, added to a graee of manner which we do not atlempt to de? scribe. Applause and M'lle Cu ra nd became sy? nonyms, and, from ber first note to ber last, the audience thundered out th?ir approval whenever the opportunity cama Signor Briguoli sang as only a thorough artist can sing, using his noble voice with consummate skill, and delivering the grace'ul music of bl3 rolt with au even fascinating effect. Signor Petrilli, who on tho previous evening bad shown himself to be a thoughtful actor, was thorough, ly at home as Figaro. Tho versatile Barber laughed and sang, and jested and intrigued, fairly twinkling with lifo and spirit, whi'e Zarpo al faccofuT? was s:ing with a force and yet with a rapidity of ennnciatlou which few can equal. Figaro seem* to bo the favorite role of Signor Petr, lb, and iu none, so far as wo knott, does bc appear to greater advantage. Signor Sarti and H0nor Localclii entered with spirit into th-lr resi ec ive i art?, and in every way made (be most of them. Ibo audience, we arc glad to say, was a full and fashiouaole one, ann doubtless, but for the circum? stance cf tbe St. Cecilia ball occurring on thc samo evening, would have been even more c owded. Briguoli and his company have our best wishes for theirtucccss ia their to tthcrn tou\ THE SESSION OF CHARLESTON PBEFBYTEHV closed on Monday afcernoon, hav:ng been character? ized by great interest and unanimity. Rev. 1 homos H Law was reappointed Evangelist of the Presby? tery lor the lo w conn try churcl es, and a call was pre. sented to a city minister to tike charge of tho church at A' ken. Tho sessions of thc Tri sbyfery were at? tended by ladies ai d others connected with our Presbyter! m congregations, and by many ministers of other d enominations. With the latter pleas int and fraternal greetings were exebangod. Presbytery reconvenes in October, at Pcoch Is'ani. HOTEL ABBIVALS, April 13.-Paoi'.ion tlote'.. J A McDowoll, St James; Som tarbarn.

I desire to present a few faotsut publb in? terest iu regard to George W. Clark, late army sut? ler, and now Acting Mayor of Charleston. They will serve to illus rate thean of public, pluuder, and explain, in some measure, why tho city government requires seven hundred and ten thousand dollars to meei the expenditures of the city lor the current year. The Acting Mayor reo-nfly 6old to thc city all thc spike, used in the plank road, at eight dollars per keg. when thoir p'ice, in open market, was six dollars per keg. He is tho purveyor lor all the ctty institutions, lura slung, Iran his store, all thc meal, flou*, bacon, salt, oil, liquors, i.e. These articles are paid lor by th', city at rates far above thoso chirped by ordinary dea ers, a'tbough of the most interior quality. Iho shipmasters at this port roported to a high government official,. bat the food issued to the patients at our Marine Hospi? tal was iaforior and unwholesome. An investigation was made, and the flour, meal Sad moat wero lound to be utterly unmerchantable and uusound. It was shown by the phy-iciau of thc Marine Hospital, that the:0 article- wero purchased from tho Acting Major, the city, of ourse, paying tho hijhest prices for them. Tbe Acting Mayor recently had his premises ou Calhoun-stre-.t Hntio I and whitewashed, and tho wotkmen wore all paid by tho city. He and his co pirtners have absorbed all the city contracts, like a huge sponge. One of the \cting Aid Tnion furnishes all the lumber, another the lime, and another the brick ; while tho Acling Mayor, who is a universal genius, sells a little ot everyihing to the city, from a barrel of Sour to a dozen ancient and unmerchant? able eggs. Is it not a violation of law and public decency that the Mayor o." th s city should be at the same time its chief purveyor ? < Ho is ex o?ci? the guardian of the funds of the eily, and should be ..above suspicion;" yet this man, as a member of the Comm ittee on accounts, audits his own account-, and as Miyor draws his checks upon the city treasury to pay them. No wonder that his "regard for law" will not permit bim to vacate his seat on thu demand of the Republican Mayor elect. A CITIZEN.
