THE NEWS IN THE COUNTR?.-Beaders 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. THE LATE RIOT.-Testimony is still being taken before Magistrate DeLarge, colored, in regard to the late riot. Several warrants h&ve been issued for tho arrest of parties who np to 'Saturday wore not ai ail known in thc r.ffair. C?STOMHOGSE. - Wo learn that Oolloctor .Clark, Senator Sayvyer ?nd Conj? rcBBmaj Bo >\ on have deoided upon tbo men whom they prefer to be in the Customhouse, and have sent the names on to Washington for approval, confirmation, or something of the kind. APPOINTMENT OF DETECTIVES.-On Saturday the Mayor appointed the following detectives under the recently adopted ordinance: S. J. Coates, W. Y. Lovett, Joseph Truall, O. Levy, N. A. Quinn and Benjamin Holloway, colored, son of Alderman Holloway, colored. Messrs. -Coates, Lovett and Quinn have been connect? ed with the force for some U no. THE ECLIPSE OF THE SUN, which the astrono? mers prediot for Saturday next, will be visible in Charleston as a partial but nearly total eclipse, and will begm at fifty-nine minutes past four o'clock and end at fifty-two minutes past six o'clock, P. M. In portions of the -counties of Mari m. Marlboro' and Chesterfield, near North Carolina, it will be total for a few moments. IMPBOVED MEAT SAW.--Mr. E. W. Livingston, a printer of New York, has introduced into the Charleston market a new and uoique style ol meat saw, ready sot for use, whioh for simplici? ty, polish and cheapness, excels any article of the kind we have seen. These saws are on sale at the store of Messrs. Lauroy & Alexan? der, East Bay, and are 'veil worthy the atten? tion of hardware dealers and the public. A CHILD FALLS ?OFF OF A PIAZZA AND IS SILLED.-On Saturday afternoon last, a little child of Mr. Kennedy, residing on Spring jstreet, about eight years of age, fell from the piazza of the second story to the ground, receiving injuries which occasioned death a short time af or. It appears (hat the child was playing on the piazza, an J ia looking over to see who had rang the bell, lost its balance and fell, falling on its head and crushing in its ?kuli,_ ARMUT? THE P?LICH.-We hear that there is -considerable discussion relative to arming the police. We sincerely haps that th s will be done; then tbs police force will ba able to pre? vent a riot. The negroes do not fear the clubs of the policemen, as their heads are formed by nature to resist the influence of snob weapons. Sind, besides, the sticks they carry or arm themselves with are equally as effective as the policeman's club. Let the police be armed by all means. BOTLDINO UP TH? liuaNr DiaraioT.-Wo are pleased to learn i hat D . B. A. Rodrigues is about to commence the oonstiuotionofa hand? some building on bis lot in Meeting-street, op? posite the Circular Chinch. We have not yet econ the plana, and cannot, therefore, say whether it will equal the fine res donee that graced that site, until laid in ashes by the fire of 1861. Mr. T. J. Knauff, we believe, bas the contract. Dr. B. is known to be A man of taste, and we may confidently, therefore, ex? pect the. new structure to he an ornament to our principal thoroughfare. EXAMINATION OF THE EDISTO RIOTEBS.-THE HEWShas already published a full account of tbe recent riot on Edisto Island, daring which the negroes desired to swing a magistrate from a" beam. It will be remembered that Sheriff E. W. M. Ma?key and two deputies, Mushing ton and Reed, arrested P. P. H ed es, Alfred Smith, Moses Brown, Boston Jetikiua, and Moses Gaded-n, negroes, charam* thom with being the ringleaders of the not. On Saturday morning they were arraigned be freo Magistrate DeLarge, (colored ) and an exami? nation commenced. It will be resumed to? day, and tomorrow will be published the points of the testimony elioited. r HOTEL Auni VALU, A BOOST 1 AU?; 3 -Charles- ! ton Hotel.-V. Lr. Henry, Wilmington, N. c.; H. | A.

T. Corbin, State Senator, have all left tor the North to recuperate their health and repair and enlarge carpet bags. THE lUlN-A &8TBBN BBEAES AND A KIT? CHEN FALLS.-The fears of some of the good citizens of the City by the Sea, that if the dry weather continued tbereiwould not hw enough water to mix their whiskey with were d ssipa ted early Friday morning, by tho heavy rain which then fell, and .?hieb bas beou kept up by fitful showers ever since. There is plenty of water and with it cool weather, both of whioh are quite refreshing, the first named if taken in doors, under an umbrella, or internal? ly, if mixe 1. During the heavy rain early Friday morning, a oistern at the Charleston Hotel stable 1, a short distance from the hotel, was filled and the esoape way being fastened up, it burst open and occasioned the falling down ot a kitchen adjacent. The loss is os tim it od at about $250. A Nsoao RUN OVEB AND KILLED BY A BAIL BOAD THAIN.-On Saturday, as the dowu ac? commodation train on the Northeastern Rail? road was passing Kingstree, about sixty-four miles from the city, a negro was observed lying on the track. The engineer whistled down with the brakes, shut off steam, and did everything in his power to stop the train, and also to arouse the negro, but all in vain. Tho train passed over the negro, crushing in the skull and tearing off a leg, instantly killing him. lt is supposed that he fell asleep while lounging on the track. Every day or two we hear of people being run over while asleep on the track. It would be well to carefully examine the bodies of these railroad victims, as il ia a very easy matter to place the body of a man foully dealt with upon the track to be run over, the perpetrators knowing full well that after a body is mangled by a train tho investigation by a coroner's jory, if any be made at all, is very slight; every member thereof being fully convinced, without any such laborious procedure, that it was only a "railroad accident." . , CBTJMBS.-The Crescent Base Ball Club, (col? ored) of this city, disclaim any connection with the late riot. Tho Wando Manufacturing Company have declared a dividend of ton dollars per share. The two policemen who indulge! in a fight Friday afternoon, were before the Mayor Sat? urday. Tue Republican, who is a roundsman, and also got the worst of the fight, was re? duced to the ranks. The Democrat was fined ten dollars. Henry Draine was fined five dollars by the j Mayor, Saturday, f cioaP *" ' * 4*? j tho t^rli ' _ S Kin tipp? rs olwwiiett?

The Mayor, in dispensing with Officers Nip son and Freeman, (the latter colored,) of the detective force, has deprived the city of the services of two thoroughly competent men. Four hours wore taken up Saturday by a magistrate in a trial involving the ownership of a bat worth about six and-a-quarter cents. A negro named Mingo Bowen was sentenced to thirty days' imprisonment by the Mayor Saturday, for being engaged in the row near the corner of Wall and Calhoun streets, al? ready having been mentioned by THE NBWS as being occasioned by a oolored man addressing a oolored woman as "Mrs. Elizabeth," which was not her name. A prevalent rumor is that the police are to be armed with the Winchester (sixteen shooter) rifles. The Nineteenth Century for August is brim full of the most entertaining material from the ablest pens. Read it. SHOOTING AFFAIR AT CASTLE PINOKNEV-THE OBDNANOE SERGEANT COMMANDING BADLY SHOT BT A PBIVATK SOLDIEB..-About fl ve o'clock last Saturday afternoon, Ordnance Sergeant James Ki lion, commanding the small squad of soldiers at Castle Pmckney, was severely shot by a pri? vate soldier named Johnson. As THE NEWS learns, Johnson reoeived per? mission to come to the city Saturday morning, and at noon returned to the fort, considerably under the influence of liquor. After remaining a short while he requested permission to go to the oity again, whiob was refused by Ser? geant Killen. Shortly after this Sergeant Kil? len ordered Johnson to do some work around the fort, which he not only refused to do. but became very disorderly and threatened tho life of the sergeant. At first tbe sergeant did not take any notice of these threats, but when Johnson threatened to go up etairs and get bis musket to put his threat into execution, and started for the room, the serge tnt fol lowed, hoping to arrest him before he could secure the weapon. Johnson was too rapid, however, and got his musket and was at the foot of the steps leading to bis room as the sergeant came up to them. Without any parley, Johnson aimed bis musket and fired, thc mszs.e being ?n)y about throw feet from his victim.' .The sergeant endeavored to solas the musket, but was too late; the bullet out off a finger of the lett hand whioh ho had thrown up, and entered the left breast jnst above the heart, passing out behind at the shoulder blade. The wounded man was immediately borne into his quarters and a physician sent for, there being none at the Castle. The soldiers then looked for Johnson to arrest him, but were unable to find him, and they concluded hs had fled to the city. They were correct so far as his teeing to the city was concerned, Lut if he at first intended to make his escape, he thought better of it, as an hour after the un? fortunate occurrence he returned to the fort bringing a physician with him. The wounds of the fcerg?ant were found to be of a most severe character. The shoulder blade was crushed and particles of the bone driven into the flesh in all directions. The finger had to be amputated close to the hand. At eight o'clock a guard was sent from the Citadel to arrest Johnson? whioh they did with? out any resistance on hts part. He is now cou - fined at the Citadel. Yesterday morning there wer 1 several sur? geons with the wpnuded man, doing all that science and experience suggested to make the anfferer comfortable, and to preserve bis life; but they entertained but slight hopes of his recovery.

BOW IM TUE RADICAL CAMP.-The OrangeburK News, a lively Radical paper, sides with tue Maokoyites against Sawyer and Bow? en, it says: Wo bave read with eare Dr. Mackeys speech at this ineotin? and we heartily subscribe to ?wry word of it. Wo have no confidence in tbis (Sawyer movement, for a man who pledges himself to support a party, and so soon as tint party places him into position, to show such an titter disregard for it as to lend bis aid and influence to the promotion of the interests of tho weak-kneed oui willora, and that to the injury oftho8C who have befriended him looks mighty like a bit ot Democrat io inconsistency. Dr. Mackey is a sound Republican. Ho has beau as firm ns adamant when others wore dispos? ed to lag behind. Shame npon those who are, doubtless, getting both sides of their oread buttere'* by the Republican partv. to iura like a lion upon one of its faithfuls. Ii? fli m Doc? tor, tho cloven foot will show itself before long. A BOLD ROBBERY-COOLNESS OF THE BUB OLABS.-Ou Friday night, the bouse ot Mr. A. C. Kaufman, No. 51 Tradd-street, was entered by burglars and robbod of j 3welry and valu? ables. About half-past 12 o'clock one of the ladies of the house was awakened by a Blight noise, and struck a light, but observed nothing unusual, lu the morning the eervants ob? served the doora opeu and papers scattered about the house Mr. Kaufman iraa notified, but was aroused with difficulty and is under the impression that ho had boon drugged with chloroform. Ou examining the premises it was found lhat a trunk had been removed from Mr. Kau man's room and thoroughly ransack? ed, the thloves, however, contenting them? selves with a box of jewelry and a pistol. His clothes were also searched and a valuable knife taken. Mr. Faber's room adjoining was visited, and a pistol and watoh taken. After the robbers had secured their booty th y examined the private papets ia the trunk and seitterod them about the house. Having dis? covered some cold chicken and ham m the dining room, they deliberately made a meal, throwing the bones on the floor. The method and cool noaa exhibited by the robb o rs marks them as adepts in burglary, and their sucoess will embolden them to future efforts, while the city authorities are confessedly unable and in? competent to guarantee security and protec? tion to the citizens. Our city has never suf? fered to such an extent from ?obberies, and it is fully time that tbair depredations should oease._ Thc Riot and the Planters. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. The reoent riot in Charleston is a home thrust to cv?ry cotton planter in the S tato. The Mayor of Charleston is '-powerless" to quell a mob who insult and assail an unarmed party of invited guests from a neighboring city. Will he not be powerless also to protect the cotton of the planter on its way from the cars to the wharves, from "pickage and steal age," to a most extraordinary degree? Thia view of the riot is respectfully com? mended to tho Board of Trade. Verbum sap, Ac. J. Midway, July 29. The Security Life Insurance and Annu? ity Company. CAMDEN, S. C., July 26. TO THU EDITOR OF THE NEW?. In your issue of to-day you publish the fact that Mr. Frank W. Ballard, the seoretary or the Security insurance Company of New York, had made away with some $63,000 of the funds of the company. The informed recognize im? mediately .that Mr. Ballard is the Secretary of the Security Fire and Inland Insurance Com? pany. Those less posted, however, fall into the very natural mistake that it i* the Security Lije Insurance and Annuity Company of the same place, au organization well and generally known through the State, that is referred to. As this leads to mistake and consequent in? justice, which 1 am sure you did not intend, to the company of which I have the honor to be an agent, wi il you specify, and oblige, Yours, very truly, CH. A. DESAUSSUBE. Thc Teachers tn Oar Public Schools-A Bad H ta te of Things. TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. As you are always ready ard willing to give a turn in the proper direction to any loose screw you may fiad, either in the oivil or po? litical machinery now in operation in our city and State, I beg to bring to notice one which, though apparent to many, may have escaped che notice of others not so immediately inter? ested . I send this oomrau oication in behalf of a large olass of our much esteemed ladies. I refer to the female teachers in our public sohools of thia city. It is generally known, sir, that these ladies have been elected to the re? sponsible positions they fill, from among hun? dreds of applicants, by a Board of Com? missioners, after a strict and rigid examina? tion. Some are members of our best educated and influential families, nearly all reduced in their circumstances by the war, and now obliged to support themselves and families by their personal effort and labor. The Board of Commissioners elected these teachers for their important work at a salary of twenty-five dollars per month. The sal iries were regularly paid up to April 1st. The teach? ers had made their arrangements for the year predicated on their promised salary, some pay? ing their board, others assisting their parents in paying rent, s si van t's hire, and other house- 1 hold expenses. They have labored faithfully in all weathers; heve taxed to their utmost their bodily and mental energies, and now they are depressed in'spirits at the failure of the board to pay their" Salaries. They have ?aceived not a cent for four-months, and feel that they are working for nothing and finding themselves. I have been moved, sir, to write this com? munication by . remark I overheard' from a lady whom I greatly esteem for her piety and intelligence. "I do wish," she said, "that somebody would communicate the facia to the editor of THE NEWS; he might remind some in authority of their duty, and perhaps he could suggest a remedy." Another said, (for ladies will talk.) "Yes, our (Jovernor borrowed thou? sands of dollars, pledging the bonds of the State to pay off the members of the Legislature their per diem, and-borrowod money, too, to pay tho salaries of offloo-holdem, and to pey the interest on bonds of the State held by par? ties who had a surplus of money to invest. Now, I am informed that the sum or $80,000 was appropriated for educational purposes. Can the State authorities hot borrow $10 OOO to pay the teachers, even if they have no mouey inhandr I make no comment on these remarks. I am not disposed tooensure men in authority, lest I might refl ot on men who ere trying to discharge their duty. One or more eorews may be loose, but I cannot ho arch for them. I state t??ts. I regret that our worthy Board of Commissioners are silent and appear to be powerless. The sohools have just closed their halt year session. I am informed none ot the commissioners - were present, and they have failed to meet or visit their sohools for some two or three mouths past. One of the teachers expressed the fear that their commissioners were tao mach mortified at their inability to help thenu ' This may ba so. I em told that tbe honorable senator of Sooth Corolin?, who has the eredit of organising on* of oar largest schools, was in Ibo office ot Ulm school, bot did not visit the teaobers aa wan bis custom. Waa he too mortified? A teaober paid she designed to sbow bim her broken shoes. Another in tended to point to ber torn and fadod dress; hat one with the hope of reconciling her friend to the self-denial she was called to practice, said, "I hare not money enough to bay a car ticket." A fourth said, she would bare to bor? row ten oems topurobaso a paper of needles, and the last saitfteriously, "I would borrow ten dollars, if 1 knew where to do so, and when 1 would be able to return it." These things ought not to be. To the teach? ers thus tried South Carolina owes one hundred dollars to each for four month*' service. I fear we will soon lose some of our bost teachers. Two or three of thone now iii our schools are a'rcady invited to other institutions for higher salaries. I know that institutions in tho West aro offoring inducements to both male and fe? male teachers a natives of Charleston, But they would prefor to remain in Charleston, humbled and degraded as she ia. Must they be forced to go because our State cannot pay them their pitiful salarios ? Lot the people of South Carolina and her authorities eay. No. AM OLD CHARLESTONIAN. BUSINESS NOTICES.
