H. Bischoff A Co., East Bay, near Cumberland street, bars completed tbe improvements mentioned in TBS NEWS some time back. Their store is noir one of the best arranged and most convenient on the Bay. The extension in the rear has added hugely to Us area and capacity, and an iron tramway, running from State-street to East Bay, enables heavy barrels and other goods to be moved with lao iii ty. The back store is graded so as to allow the leakage from the molasses barrels to be drained into a cis? tern, when it can be utilized by means of strainers and not lost aa heretofore. The work? men are now putting; on tbs finishing touches io the building, when it will be stocked prepa? ratory to the fall trade. MARRIED ct SPITE OF HIS WIFE.-Tmc NEWS, of Saturday, gave an account of a festive col? ored fellow, Thos. Anderson by name, who de? serted his wife, and on Thursday night last carried a young girl to the minister to oe join? ed in the '-bonds of holy wedlock," but before the ceremony was gotten underway hie wife confronted him and forbade the marriage, with her marriage certificate "showing cause why." On Saturday Thomas carried tho girl, whose naas is Jade Boag, to the office of Magistrate Mishaw, colored, who performed the marriage ceremony. Shortly after the ceremony, Anderson's first wife preferred charg?e against him for bwaray. He was arrested and, being unable to furnish security for bis appearance for trial, was com? mitted to jail. Tn Dex r ELECTED ANO QCAXDTXD WANT THE OmoEs.-The Mayor, instead of calling upon the police force to eject the officers who bare refuse 1 to yield their offices to their "duly elected and qualified successors," has resorted to the auld course of requesting them to retire. On Saturday, he addressed letters to P. C. Querry, City Sheriff; W. N. Hughes, Assessor, and C. P. Fraser, Assistant Asses? sor, requesting them to turu their books and papers over to their "duly el ec te 1 and quali? fied successors." They referred the letters to their attorneys, Messrs. Le jeane and Miles, who informed the Mayor that the officers de? clined to comply with the request. Nothing furthar was done by the Mayor, Saturday, but it ls understood that decisive stops will bs taken'to-day. ? _ Tax ALUS Housx.-On Saturday, Alderman T. J. Mackey, who, the night before, was elect? ed. Chairman of the CXmimissionsrs of tbe Alias Boase, visited that institution, and ex? pressed himself as well pleased with the man? ner io" which it waa kept. ' J II ks reported that both General Wat. Gurney and Alderman T. J. Mackey deaired tobe Chair mail of the Board of Commissioners, and that the majority of the members had pledged them? selves to vote forthe former. Mackey'* friends want around to See those who were 'understood to be in favor of the General as chairman, and told them that their candidate desired to sup ply the - Alms House with groceries from his commission house, and that, as Chairman of the Board, ie could not unttor ibo law do it. Tbs General's friends swallowed the bait; re unit : the election, of Alderman Mackey. 1 VAGRANTS.r-DariDg Friday night a number of negroes were arrested while asleep on the stalls in the market, and oo Saturday were brought up before the Mayor, who sent them to the House of Correction, to be supported by tbe taxes wrung from those woo work. Daddy Cain has aa editorial in the last Missionary, Record addressed to these vagrants, in which he tous them that the city ie aol Urge enough to furnish work to ''one-tenth of the voters Who elected Mr. Pillsbury and his friends," and be 'suggests, therefore, that tbe laborers do not%xacl too much, from Mr. Jenks or the. '? Mayor* UethipJks/'t^atif. three hundred of 'those men who have applied for work wonld go to the country ?jd work the soil or tbe marl diggings, they would make more money, ind appear to more advantage in society." This ad rico of Daddy Cain 's is very good, and it is to be Loped that the idle negroes of the city will act upon it. mw s .,: . ?d ? .- . .. ASSAULT wira J*tWT TO MuspxB.-On Saturday morning Michael Donaghue, A mein? ber of the police force, was arraigned before the Mayor to answer the charge of committing ah assault and battery, with intent to murder, I noon Mr. Christian Nelson, who lites at the : corner of Kio?: And Tridd-streeta. The Mayor i relieved the accused from duty and turned the ?jase over to a magistrate. The ease was carried before Justice Mackey, tho testimony before whom showed that on Friday night the aceuaed, while on duty, heard a dog. barking in Mr. Nels on'a yard. He poshed I open a door and ordered the animal to shut its mooth. Mr. Nelson then requested the police? man to-"mind bis own business," whereupon said policeman seized Mr. N. and beat him on the head with his club and dragged him around loosely, much to the detriment of Mr. N.'s , flesh and clothing. The magistrate required the accused to furnish $800 se :n ri ty for his good behavior and $?00 for his sppearauce foe trial, which he did and wa? dismissed. 1 . ; . _ !.??-' ' ' CXUMBS - Dr. Lebby, Health officer, is prom? inently spoken ot by the negroes as their can? didate lor.

Flour Inspector, intends contesting the el ec . tion by which he was thrown ont of office. ' The scale house at the west end of Calhoun street has been recently repaired and painted, and presents quite an attractive appearance. The negroes are talking and shaking their heads considerably in regard to tbe recent elections, asserting ''dat it is mity queer dat so many murlaters should gee into offii " Jumes Howard, colored, newly elected Corc ner, instead of holding inquests is holding the important position of foreman of one of Jenks street gangs. It is reported that this week the burnt dis? trict will be entirely cleared of grass and rub? bish eenerailv. William Dart, colored has been appointed Keeper of the House of Correction. It is thought that only tba yachts Eleanor and Ella Anna will participate in the regatta on Saturday next, as it is asserted that the Maggie Mitchell viii not enter because she has besu refused the thirteen minutes' sturt re? quested. It is claimed by the advocates of the bill to make the Detective force independent of the Police Department, that ii adopted tbe force can be worked at less expense ihau htn etofore. Alderman Barrow will, to-morrow night, 'have an opportunity of introduciug his reso? lution to exoludi reporters from Council meet? ings. It is reported that on ant after the lit of August there will be a daily paper started in Charleston, m the inter?s, of Republicanism. The bathing home ou the battery is much frequ Dted h> ladies and their chddren, who aro doubtless much benefit ted by the salt water. A MAR ITAKWPIW Oar ow A DnmercLTr. f There are A great many persona in cuts ITO rid who because tbey could not get any woman to tie herself to them any more flu m ly than a beau-knot would do it, assert thai when a man ma.Ties he gets into a difficulty, and ifs young man happens to be caught up in the bonds of matrimony, they with a sage shake of the head quote "A young man that's married Ii a young man that's marred." Sat what will they think when they read the following about the young man that married out et a difficulty : Two or three days ago an old colored woman went to a magistrate and desired to know if a young colored man could not be arrested and punished for nuning her daughter under a promise of marriage. The magistrate did not at first know exactly what to do, but finally issued a peace warrant for the arrest of the said young man, who shortly after appeared before him; also came the mother and the young girl, accompanied by a host of her young female friends. After much shedding of tears, protestations of undying love and the rest on the part of the young girl, the young man sad that rather (han have so muoh fuss about it he would marry the girl. All interested parties being willing, the magistrate performed the ceremo? ny then and there, and the girl departed with ber husband, looking as "happy SB a gay sun? flower." BUSINESS NOTICES.

The lancet, calomel, canth ari dies and drastic pur? gatives were thea the order of the day. The phv aieian played into the hands of the apothecary, and the unfortunate patient waa drenched morning, noon and night with prostrating medicine!. We Ive la a more rational and conscientious era. Tba mportaace of supporting Nature in its conflict with diaaaae is now understood. Complaint? In themselves weakeniog are no longer aggravated by artificial depletion. They are met with TOKIOS that raHy tbe vital powers and enable them to de feat the enemy. Chief among these alliea of Natara, in it? battles with alckneaa, is PLAS T AVION BITTER?. Thts wonderful vegetable resto ra ti va ii the aheet anohor of the feeble and debilitated. As a cordial for tb? aged and decrepit it bas no equal among a tom ach?es. As h remedy for the nervous weakness to which the tender sex an especially subject, it ls ! superseding every other stimulant and nervine.

Wherever it is Introduced lt be? comes a st ic dard article-a medicinal staph.

Every bottle sold insures the sale of at least haifa dosen mora. Unlike other stimulants it braces and fortifies the system without exciting undue cerebral action. The cheering effect which it produces upon the mind is not momentary, but permanent. There ls no subsequent depression. It does not, aa la the case with all other stimuli, beget a craving for ex? citants. On the other hand, it soothes and calms the nerve?, combining, strange as the anomaly may seem, the qualities of a sedative and gentle anodyne with those of a tonic and invigorant. The perfect: parity of all its ingrediente, their admirable adap? tation to the purposes they aro iatended to sub? serve, the judicious proportions in which they ara combined, and the scientific skill with which they are blended, render this famous article at once the most potent and (he most harmless of all known tonic* and alteratives.
