From what has been gathered, we judge that the affair Was very much exaggerated. COUNCIL-We learn that there will be a meeting of Council to-morrow night to dispose of business whioh bas boen accumulating during the time spent in electing officers. THE NEWS IN THE COUNTS*.-Readers of THE NEWS going to the country can receive their favorite paper by mail, daily, at seventy five cents a month, by addressing a note, with their subscription, to our publication office. STABBING AFFAIB. -On Friday night last dur? ing a difficulty between several white and col? ored men, on King-street, a white man named W. H. Hodges s tabb jd a colored man, inflict? ing a painful wound. Hodges was arraigned before the Mayor Saturday, and then th9 case was turned over to a magistrate. THE FATAL BYOTOLE.- We see by our foreign files that Mr, J. Heywood Whitehead, an Eog glish gentleman who had many friends in Charleston, and who, some time ago, presented a flag to the St. George's Society, died recent? ly, in Cumberland, England? from accidental injuries received while riding a velocipede. JOHN CHINAMAN FOB THE BLUE RIDGE RAIL? ROAD.-The Aicusta, Chronicle mentioas a re? port that the contractors "for the Blue Bidsre Railroad had determined to employ Chinese instead of negio labor on the road, and that a large force of these people will be procured from the West and brought out at once to South Carolina. COLLECTOR OF CUSTOMS.-Dr. A. G. Mackey, the late incumbent, arrived here Saturday night. Mr. Clark bas not yet arrived; it is un? derstood that he is in Boston winding up his business affairs-ho not being allowed to en? gage in any business while Collector. The Collector's friends think he will enter upon the duties of his office early this week. THE Rica CROP NEAR SAVANNAH.-The Savan? nah News of Saturday says that "reports from plantations along the river give the most fa? vorable accounts of the rice crop, whioh bids fair to be one of the best that has ever been grown. We have seen several s'alks, cut from the Ferry plantation, owned by Dr. Thomas F. Horeven, and the Proctor plantation, owned by Colonel John Horeven. The stalks were nearly six feet io height, and some of the ears eleven and a half inches in length." PENITENTIARY AFFAIRS-ESCAPE OF CON? VICTS.-On Wednesday last, while four colored convicts were engaged in banting brick on the ?anal at Columbia, a- signal was give by ore of them, when thpy all immediately dropped their wheelbarrows and sprung upon a white man, ((who was guarding them,) took form bim bis .gun and pistol, gave him a beating, and then made off. The same day another convict made ibis escape through a hole under the fence, and he same night still another made his escape. A. colored convict died on Wednesday night. CHIMNEY CONTRACTORS.- The mea who de? sire to interfere with the twittering birds who make their homes in the chimneys-that ip, those who desire to be ohimney contractors are numerous; among them are : John Robin? son, J. Patrie, M. Brown. Jr., Peter Ashe, .Jick Frost, N. T. Oliver, colored, and John T. Milligan, white, they suppose that they will be voted for at the meeting of Council to? morrow night; but as the Mayor has failed to give the five days' not ne required before an ?election can be held, the candidates mast wait ?until to-morrow night week.

A HUTT FOB DULL Tot KS -Take advantage of the great r?daction ic prices, and prepare for the approaching business season by hav? ing your Job Printing neatly, expeditiously and oheaply done at THE NEWS Job Office, No. 149 East Bay._ BUSINESS ENTEBPRISE.-Messrs. H. Bischoff & Co., East Bay, near Cumberland-street, have completed the improvements mentioned in THE NEWS some time back. Their store is now one of the best arranged and most convenient on the Bay. The extension in the roar has added laigely to its area and capacity, and an iron tramway, running from State-street to Bast Bay, enables li6avy barrels and other goods to be moved with taoility. The back store is graded'so aB to allow the leakage from tho molasses bairels to bc drained into a cis? tern, wben it can be utilized by means of strainers ai.d not lost as heretofore. The work? men are now putting on tho finishing touches to tho building, when it wilt bo stocked prepa? ratory lo the fall trade. MAEBJET? o o?-iTE OF ms WIFE.-THE NEWS, of Saturday, gave an account of a festive col? ored fellow, Thos. Anderson by name, who de? serted his wife, aud on Thursday night last carried a young girl to the minister to be join? ed in the "bonds of holy wedlock," but before tbe oeremony was gotten underway hie wife confronted him and forbade the marriage, with her marriage certificate "showing cause why. On Saturday Thomas carried tho girl, whosa name is Jane Boag, to tho office of Magistrate Mishaw, colored, who performed the marriage oeremony. Shortly aftor the ceremony, Anderson's first wife preferred charges against him for bigamy. He was arrested and, being unable to tarnish security for bis appearance for trial, was com? mitted to jail. THE BOXY ELECTED AND QUALIFIED WANT THE OFFICES.-The Mayor, instead of calling apon the police force to eject the officers who have refused to yield their offices to their 'duly elected and qualified successors," has resorted to the mild course of requesting them to retire. On Saturday, he addressed letters to P. C. Querry, City Sheriff; W. N. Hushes, Assessor, and C. P. Frazer, Assistant Asses? sor, requesting them to turn their books and papers over to their "duly eleotei and quali? fied successors." They referred the letters to their attorneys, Messrs. Leaesne and Miles, who informed the Mayor that the officers de? clined to comply with the request.. Nothing farther was done by the Mayor, Saturday, but it ia understood that decisive steps will be taken to-day. THE Aura HOUSE.-On Saturday, Alderman T. J. Mackey, who, the night before, was elect? ed Chairman of the Commissioners of the Alms House, visited that institution, and ex? pressed himself as well pleased with the man? ner in whioh it was kept. lt is reported that both General Wm. Gurney |. and Alderman T. J. Mackey desired to be Chair? man of the Board of Commissioners, and that the majority of the members had pledged them? selves to vote for the former. Mackey 's friends went 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, he could not under the law do it. The General's friends swallowed the bait; re? sult : the election of Alderman Mackey. VASRANTS.-Daring Friday night a number ot negroes were arrested while asleep on the stalls in the market, and on Saturday were brought up before the Mayor, who sent them to the House of Correction, to be supported by the taxes wrong from those who work. Daddy Cain has an editorial in the last Missionary Record addressed to these vagrants, in which he tells them that tho oity is not large enough to furnish work to "one-tenth of the voters who elected Mr. Pillsbury and his friends," aud he ' suggests, therefore, that the laborers do not exact too much from Mr. Jenks or the Mayor." He thinks "that if three hundred of those men who have applied for work would go to the country and work the soil or the marl diggings, they would make more money, and appear to more advantage in society." This advice of Daddy Cain's is very good, and it is to be hoped that the idle negroes of the city will aot upon it, ASSAULT WITH INTENT TO MURDEH.-On Saturday morning Michael Donaghue, a mem? ber of the police force, was arraigned before the Mayor to answer the chat ge of committing an assault and battery, with intent to murder, upon Mr. Christian Nelson, who lives at tho corner of Sing and Tradd-streets. The Mayor relieved the accused from duty and turned the case over to a magistrate. Tho case was carried before Justice Mackey, t'au testimony before whom showed that on Friday night the accused, while on duty, heard a dog barking in Mr. Nelson's yard. He pushed open a door and ordered the animal to shut its mooth. Mr. Nelson then requested the police? man to "mind his own Lusiness," whereupon said policeman seized Mr. N. and beat him on the head with his club and dragged him around loosely, muoh to the detriment of Mr. N.'s flesh and clothing. The magistrate required the accused to furnish $300 so-urity for his good behavior and $200 for his appearance for trial, whioh he did and was dismissed. CBUMBS.-Ur. Leb by, Health officer, is prom? inently spoken of by the negroes as their can? didate for Mayor. Captain Jenda' gang arie removi? g the grass that has been allowed to grow in Calbonn atreet. It is understood that Mr. C. N. Averill, late Flour Inspector, intends contesting the eleo ? tion by whioh he waa thrown out of office. The bcalebouee at the weat 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 the recent elections, asserting "dat it is mity queer dat so many mnrlaters should get into offl* " Jarno? Howard, oo.orod, newly elected Coro? ner, instead of holding inquests is holding the important position of foreman of one of Jenks street ganga. lt is reported that this week the burnt dis? trict will*be entirely cleared of grass and rub? bish penerailv. WU ham Dart, colored baa been appointed Keeper of the House of'Correction, 9 It ia thought that only th a yachts Eleanor and Ella Anna will participate in the regatta on Saturday next, aa it ia asserted that the Maggie Mitchell will not enter because she baa boon refused the thirteen minutes' start re? quested. It is claimed by the advocates of the bill to make tbs Detective force independent of tho Police Department, that if adopted the fores can be worked at Ieee expense than heretofore. Alderman Barrow will, to-morrow night, have an opportunity of introducing bia reso? lution to exclude reporters from Council meet? ings. It is reported that on an ? after the lit of August there will be a daily paper started in Charleston, in the interest, of republicanism. Tbs bathing bouse on the battery ia much frequented by ladies and their children, who are doubtless much benefit ted by the aalt water. A MAN MARPIHS OUT or A DifwouxrY. Thora ara ? ?real many persons in ?uta tvorid who because they could uot gat any woman to tie herself to them any moro firmly than a b'au-knot would do it, assert that when aman marries he frets into a difficulty, and if a young man happens to be caught up in the bonds of matrimony, they witb a page shalqapf the head quote- , "A young man that's in orr i od Is a young man that's marred." But what will they think when thoy read the following about tho young man that married out of a diffionltj: Two or three days ago an old colored woman went to a magistrate and desired to know if a young colored man could no t be arrestod aod punished for nuning ber 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 tho said yourg man, who shortly after appeared before him; also came the mother and the young girl, accompanied by a hoat of ber young l?malo friends. After much shedding of tears, protestations of undying love and the rest on ibo part of the young girl, the young man sa d that rather than have so much 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 as a gay sun? flower." It USINES ti NOTICES.

THAT ANY SICK MAN 8URVTVED TUB treatment of fifty years a-jo, must be considered a proof that haman beings are Tory hard to kill. The lancet, calomel, cantharidles and drastic pur gwtiveu wore thoa tbe order of the day. The phy aislan played into the bands of tho apothecary, and the unfortunate patient was drenched morning, noon and night with prostrating medicine?. We ive in a moro rational and conscientious era. The mportance of supporting Nature in ita conflict with disease ls now understood. Complaints in themselves weakening are no longer aggravated by artificial depletion. They are met with TONIS S that rally the vital powers and enable them to de feat the enemy. Chief among these allies of Nature, in its battles with sickness, is PLANTATION B1TTBKS. Ibis wonderful vegetable restorative is the sheet anchor of the feeble and debilitated. Aa a cordial fer the aged and deorepid it has no equal among stomachics. As a remedy for the nercous weakness to which the tender sex are especially subject, it bi superseding every other stimulant and nervine. In all oilmatea, tropical, temperate or frigid, its acts as a specific in every species of disorder which un? dermines the bodily strength and breaks down the animal spirits. Wherever it ls introduced it be? comes a? standard article-a medicinal staple. Drug? gists, although their profit upon lt is small, find it absolutely necessary to ke*p a preparation for which everybody Inquires, and for which nobody win accept a substitute. It is to-day the moat popular medicine in tbs civilized world. Extensively as ii - TB?, ia advertised, its best advertisement is the bane?cv 1 result which uniformly follows its use. Every bottle sold insures tbe sale of at least haifa dosen score. Unlike other stimulants it braces and fortifies the system without exciting undue eerebral action. The cheering effect which it produces upon the mind ts not momentary, but permanent. There ls no subsequent depression. It doss not, aa ls the ease with all omar SM mali, beget ? craving for ex ? citants. On the omer hand, it soothes sad caima # the nerves, combining, strange as the anomaly may seem, the qualities of a sedative and gent?o anodyne with those of s tonie and invlgoraat. Tbe perfect niarity of aB tts ingrediente, their admirable adap? tation to the purposes they are Intended to sub? serve, the judicious proportions In which they sro combined, and the aotenuflo akin with which they are blended, render this famous article st once the most potent and the moat harmless of all known .
