THE HAflEirsntEET SODA WATER FOUNTAIN.
Mr. Gardner, the proprietor of the fashionable
Boda water establishment in Hag el-street near
the Pavilion Hotel, bas been eo pressed by his
increasing business, that he has been coin -
pelted to purchase a new fountain of donble
capacity and improved facilities for making
soda water. It is very handsome, of the best
Tennessee marble, and by it five glasses of
Boda can be served, where three were served
by the old roan taine.
TOLLY always distinguishes himself. Like
a fait beal soldier, when any event is about to
ocote in which the stomach is concerned, he
may ever be found on guard. In his case em?
phatically "peace bath its victories no less re?
nowned than war." Tally, too, knows tbe ad?
vantages of advertising, and when on a cam?
paign never fails to send to oar office his UR ht
skirmishers in the shape of "something good."
His latest contribution to oar happiness is a
basket; fat with champagne, malt liquors and
edibles. Thanks I Tully, thoo art the prince
of Charleston caterers.

BISHOP WISHTKA N ra* Nxw YOEE.-The Bs v.
Bishop Wightman preached on Sunday morning
and evening, st the Church of the Strangers, in
the New Yoi k University Chapel, on Washington
8quare, of which the Ber. Dr. Deems, former?
ly of North Carolina, ia pastor. Tbe Bishop
was on his way to St. Lo?is to attend to some
official bosiness, and ?as prevailed upon by
his old friend, Dr. Deems, to remain with him
over Sunday. This is probably the first time
that a Southern Methodist bishop hos preach?
ed in New York since the great division ot the
Church, which took place in 1844.
The Bishop took for hi? text the fifteenth
verse of the sixth chapter of St. Paul's Epistle
to the Thessalonians-"Rejoice evermore."
He said that, whether we viewed the toiling,
suffering masses of humanity, and the sorrow,
suffering and death which exists in the world,
or contempla ted the gay and thoughtless mul?
titude, to whom life ia but a scene of festivity,
bot who exclaim in the midst of their
so-called pleasures, "Whoshall show us any
good thing ?"-whether we take the text
in the light of a command or a promise,
the words sound strangely. But tho mean?
ing of the rejoice should be examined; joy
.differs, not merely in degree, bat in
kind, from what is expressed by happi?
ness. The latter is the result of the rela?
tion between ourselves and oatward circum?
stances. Its nature is indicated, in some sense,
by ita name; it happens. Happiness and un?
happiness exist without the control of the
mind and without reference to the character.
It Sows from without inwardly. Joy is a harmo?
nious relation between the inteUect and heart
and God. It is self-crea ted and flows from
within outwardly. It is this joy which is indicat?
ed by Chris? as a weU of living water springing
up onto everlasting life. Joy and happi
ntod may be coexistent though in no degree
dependent upon each other. A man may be
bappy, yet never know the meaning of joy;
while, on the other band, amid the most sad?
dening circumstances of lite-the destraction
of property, the loss of friends, the sundering
of all that makes life dear-the heart may "re?
joice evermore.'' The words which follow ex?
plain the nature of Christian joy and the means
by which it may be attained. Pray without
ceasing, and in everything give thanks. The
Bishop explained that the happiness of the
Christian resolta from aa apprehension of
God's plan to save the human race, the appro?
priation of that plan by faith, and the assur?
ance of God's acceptance and pardon through
the witness of the Holy Ghos^ Oe who knows
and feels himself to be accepted as the child of
God can bot rejoice, and bis joy ie everlasting;
ha rejoices evermore. Following the Bishop's
sermon the ?acrament of the Lord's Sapper
was alininistered.

PRESENTATION OF GUTS.
Captain Alex. Melchers welcomed the visi?
tors in an eloquent though brief address in thi
mother tongue, which drew forth repeated
cheers. Captain Gerdes responded at lengtl
io a hearty speech. He spoke of the Nat iona
Fest, and said he and his friends bad come te
enter with spirit into the familiar festiva
about to begin. He said he was always ai
home with Germans wherever be could find
them, irrespective of political faith. All thai
he asked was that they came from the Vater?
land. Turning to Captain Melchers he pre?
sented him with an elegantly chased silver
goblet lined with gold, surrounded by elk
heads, valued at $250, and inscribe 1: "Pre?
sented by the New York Schnetzen Corps,
Captain J. F. Gerdes, to the Charleston Shoot?
ing Association, to commemorate their visit to
their festival on the 5th, Gth and 7th of May,
1869." .
Captain Melchers received tho handsome
gift with very appropriate words, and proposed
three cheers for the New York corps, whi?h
was heartily resounded, and echoed with a
"Tiger 1"
Captain Horetman of the Jersey City Club,
was next introduced. He said he was no
speaker, but accepted the Carolina welcome,
as a sincere evidence of the good feelings of
those in whose hospitable keeping he was. He
presented the Charleston Club with a fine
double case gold watch, morocco box. The
watch was inscribed : "Presented to Charles?
ton Sehe itzen Gesellschaft, by the Jersey City
Soheutzen Corpa, May 7th, 18*69."
Captain Spengler, honorary member and
founder of the Germania Schuetzen Corps of
Washington, was introduced by Mr. Niemann.
He regretted that he was the only representa?
tive of his corps present to engage in and en?
joy the festivities of this gala occasion. When
he bad finished, three rousing cheers broke the
silence of the banquet ball.
Mr. Bergmann rose and said that at the last
meeting of the club it was resolved that all the
visitors should enjoy privileges equal to the
members of the club, an i begged them, while
here, to consider themselves fully privileged
members. [Applause.]
Captain Melchers requested the battalion to
reform outside of the hall to allow M. Paaquet,
of the Parisian Photographic Corps, to photo?
graph the group, so that the European papers
might be furnished with a correct representa?
tion of the scene. The cunera was planted at
some distance over the gate to the main ea
trance, and in a few moments the scene wes
transferred to the plate and pronounced
"good."
The officers of the Charleston Schuetzen are:
President, Alexander Melchors; vice-President,
J. D. Lesemann; Treasurer, J. H. Petermann;
Secretary, C. H. Bergunnn.
THE OROTTND8
Are filled Tith booths, tastefully decked with
evergreens and flowers, mottoes and crossed
flag.,; and of the latter there is an abundance
floating in every direction. The shooting Kal?
lery has been considerably improved since the
last Fe8t, and is now very conveniently ar?
ranged, with ample room. The rules and reg?
ulations are posted on every tide, and are to
be strictly obeyed.
THE TARGETS
Are circular and square, and three hundred
feet distant from the gallery. As soon UM a
shot is fired, if it hits, a man under cover
points to the spot hit with a stick, so that each
marksman can see the result of bis aim and
firing.
The Eagle is aloft as usaal, defying the
rifleB. There are also targets describing ch?
eles.
The Harlequin target shone up a monkey
when struck, which disappears aa quickly as
he rises.
Tbe bull's-eyes are on all the targets, and
three inches in diameter.
THE AMUSEMENTS
Are numerous and varied, and consist of shoot?
ing at the eagle and the targets; people's
amusexents, such as prize shooting for visi?
tors, nine-pin alleys, turning, swinging, Italian
music on the place, aeronautic balloons, marion?
ettes with music, barrel organs, panorama,
merngene with music, the streets of Charles?
ton, patent swings, bird-swinging, ring throw?
ing, frog catching game, water drawing, milk
feeding, sugar eatiDg, sack running, mill of
misfortune, climbing pole, race of velocipedes,
Ac. Dancing, music and ball, from 12 o'clock
H. till 7 o'clock P. M.
The velocipedes, four in number, were on
the ground, but the arrangements for the
race were not completed and it will not take
place until to-day.
THE NUMBLE OF VISITORS
In the early part of the day was not very
large, but the steady arrivals by the steamer
Fannie, the omnibus line, the cars, on foot,
and in every conceivable st j le of vehicle, Boon
jammed the Platz, until it contained thousands.
The scene along the shell road woe very lively,
as the omnibuses, carriages, cai ts and - pedes?
trians went towards the festival.
ATTEMPT TO STOP THE FESTIVAL.
lor. Taft, an agent of the county commis?
sioners, appeared upon the ground and de?
manded a tax of $60 on every booth. Captain
Members refused this point blank. .He said
that it was their own ground, they had a regu?
lar license, and if the agent wanted to collect
the tax ho had batter apply to their lawyer and
not attempt to carry bis threat to stop the fes?
tival into execution, which would doubtless
be a difficult and unpleasant thing to do. Hero
the matter ended.
PROMINENT PRIZES.
There is a glass case shadod by flags, at?
tached to headquarters, whore some of the
prominent prizes were exposed. Among them
were silver castors, from W. O. Whilden & Co.
and Wm. Carrington A Co.; a silver teapot
from James Allan; a silver bulter dish; a silver
medal, from James Bock, engraved by W.
Fischer with a likeness of Genoral John A.
Wagener on one side; a diamond studded
schuetzen insignia from New York; also a sil?
ver salver and two goblets from A H. Hayden.
All the prizes were not f-Ypnsod yAatarday. but
willi no doubt, be so to day, as a great many
wero being carried np yesterday.
Ed bles and refreshments can be had at mo?
derate prices, and in the greatest variety and
abundance.
The ball room is a scene to behold. Hun?
dreds of couples on the floor at the same mo?
ment bewilder the vision.
The strictest propriety prevails, whilst the
round of pleasure, mirth, dancing, music,
amusements, Ac':, goes on uninteruptedly. The
appointments of the ground are better this
season than ever before, and everything is on a
grander and far be: ter scale.
PRIZES.
The following were won yesterday: Theo.
Melchers, crown of eagle, first prize; H. Klatte,
ball in right 'claw, second prize; A. W. Jager,
bead, third prize.
A PLEASANT TEIP. *
An excellent opportunity ia afforded by which
visitors to the Schuetzenfest are enabled to take
a ?ne view of the city, breathe the salt air
and inspect the Ashley Biver Phosphate Works.
This is certainly "getting tbe money's worth,"
leaving the pleasures of the Schuetzenfest out
of the question, and all who desire to have a
May frolic with orr German friends and avoid
the dust, may take a passage on the steamer
Fannie, whose schedule is published in an?
other column.
