TBZBJ XJDOPJRB RETURNS. Bis WUto Tit re? te tu t? I-navc ? Dtptw'i Bill 01? the Womit wno itt'' xl him to netti Aw?jr. rho elopement of Riobard Murphy with ? young woman wi o haa a devoted husband in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and regularly sends her a portion of his htrd-etrned wages, has been tho town talk for the last two days, every one who thought much about it being convinced that he had gone ''never more to return." Bat not so. About six o'clock last afternoon tbs detec? tives were notified that Murphy, accompanied by tho young-woman, had como down from Branchville, on the South Carolina Railroad, wdhin seven milos of Charleston, and there they bad golton off. he swearing he woald walk into the city. Mrs. Murphy Was notified ot his proximity to the city, and securing a carriage, drove around to the db tooti ve offl?o. After learning all that could be gained from the de? tectives, she sent fer Magistrate Mackey, who carno, and she desired to know what was U> bc dose to punish the woman, she stating that her husband was always good .to, her-he had. it was true, in this and another instance, been unfaithful to his allegiance; but it was her fault, as she had inadvertently put the tempta? tion in his way by hiring attractive womoo to serve about the house, and, therefore, she did not want to prosecute him. The magistrate, after inquiring ioto the case, gave it as bis opinion that the woman had done nothing except enticing Murphy off, and as there was no law to punish women for that, nothing could be done in the matter. Mrs. Murphy listened impatiently to this de? cision, and then jumped np and started for the carriage, remarking as she did so : "I gttess I had better attend to tbn business myself; I'll go oat in the carriage and meet them, and Til leave a doctor's bill upon that woman that's come between me and my husband." [Note It is supposed that Mrs. Murphy meant by the expression . 'leave a doctor's bill," Ac., that she would go for the woman and leave her in such a condition as would require the attend? ance of a physicim, and consequently have a bill to pay. J The last seen of Mrs. Murphy she was in a carriage with a male friend being rapidly driven out of the city, evidently on the road to meet her erring hasband and the "naughty, naughty" woman. THE POLICE FOBOE-WILL rr ns REOBOAN izsn ?-A bill will be introduced at the meeting of C jsncil on Tuesday sight next, having tor its. object the reorganization of the police f-jro>. Tho present force consists of fifty day and fifty night polios, the latter of whom are not at o)l available daring the day in ease of an emergency. The bill-to bo introduced provides that the force be increased to one hundred and twenty-five men, who will constitute both the night and day police, dispensing altogether wit li the present system or night watchmen. THE SAVANNA H CLUB WILL SOT COME TODAY. THU NEWS of yesterday stated that President McCabe, of the Carolina Club, who bad gone to Savannah to make arrangements foi the Sa? vannah Club to come here and play the second game, had telegraphed to bis club to meet the Savannah boys at the steamer Dictator's wharf to-day. At twelve o'clock Thursday night another telegram (which, however, was not opened by the person to whom it was addressed until yesterday morning) was received stating that a meeting ot the Savannah Club had just beeb concluded, and they had resolved not to come to Charleston-until the Carolina Club paid them a visit. Supp sa.-There was a festive gathering at the engine house of. the Marion Pire Company last night-the members and a few invited guests being there assembled to partake of a lavishly supplied feast of good things to drink and eat, furnished to the company by the Messrs. Goldsmith as a mark of their apprecia? tion of the services, rendered by them daring the late fire, which consumed their turpentine still on BaiIroad Accommodation wharf. It w'll be remembered that daring this fire the Marion Company was on an opposite wharf with about tbirty yards of deep water between. lt was found necessary to carry the bose over to the Railroad 'wharf, and ? boat not being at? band, Messrs. Edward Powers, John Gillespie and John Cameron took the bose, swam across with it, and did effective- service in saving the property on the wharf. THE ECLIPSE THIS EVSNINO.-Everybody will be on the lookoat for the great solar eclipse whioh will toke placa this afternoon. The obscuration, as visible throughout this State, will not be total; yet it will be, accord? ing to the astronomers, a phenomenon well worth seeing. A correspondent of the New York Evening Post gives the following method of observing the eolipse: f Take a large card with a small round hole in the centre, and hold it against the sun's rays, so that the shadow will fall on the fl JOT, pave? ment, wall, or other dark and smooth surface. In the middle of the shadow there will be a true image of the san, and the eolipse can be studied in its progress without straining the eyes abd without smutting face or hands with smoked glass. This simple process was sag Srested by the familiar circumstance that the lght spots ia the shadows, daring a solar eolipse, take tbe shape of the laminons por? tions of the sun's disc, and tbe perforated card bas been used with perfect success. TBS ALMS HOUSE- NUMBEB or INMATES From the following statement gleaned from the "Master's Report," the reader will gain soma idea of th? number of poor persons who are dependent upon the charity of the city to keep them from starving : Inmates-whites, seven males, twenty-six females and thirty-two children.

Colored-seventy.eight males, two hundred sud eighty-eight females, and one bundled and sixty-six ohildr-ju. " From the above statement, lt will be observed that there are seventy-seven inmates-sixty-.1 se voa whites and ten colored; fifteen hundred and eighty-one out-of door pensioners; one thousand and forty-pino whites, five hundred and thirty-two colored. Total number support? ed, one thousand six hundred and brty-o giit. TH'S Corros Cnor is BARNWELL COVHTS. The following letter from a moat reliable gen? tleman and practical planter in Barnwell Coun? ty, hos just been received here by one of our factorage houses, lt is dated Ht>' DAHN WELL, August 4, lt_ I regret to have to inform jpn that the cot? ton orup is mnob damaged since tbe rains, by what ls termed "French or black rust." There sos but little appearance of the disease ia this neighborhood on the 21 instant, though I beard nf it from all pans' of tho district on that day. It has appoared gonerally on crop? which suffered first from drought, and afterwards had excessive rams. Most of the crop? in this dist rict, an 11 presume in the State have bsd the tw,o extremes. Where the seasons have been good through July, and where the cotton w*s planted in May, the ras! bas not appeared thus far. I think my croo will not reaob mum, if any. over one-half of what I j planted for. The oldest of it seems to have nwt all or the July fruit, aod some of that ot June, know of bat few persons who have ever soon ''Frenan rast"here before, bat from tu lean learn ox it, aud from the lateness of tbe. sea? son, I bave buv tittle hope of a top bro?on the diseased cotton, sod tbe caterpillar may bart aoy May cotton which at present looks quite healthy. TH Pl H A <JR WV KK WAA. THE LAST SHOT. TU* Kx-volloetor c?mm?n?? tine Senator Cotilo Democrats as ?st Des\r B?rgsilM." Perhaps some of the readers of TH? NETTS nay have seen the loo* letter of Senator Saw? yer, in reply to the public onslaught upon bia political record made at a Badi -al meeting a sb ort time ago by Dr. A. Q. Mackey. The fol? lowing rejoinder of the ex Collector has boon i oe ut to ne for publication: \ 8BNAT0B F. A. 8 A WY Eli AS A BKPUBUCAH. On my return to the city, after a brief visit to Columbia, I found that Senator F. A. Saw- I yer had, in a communication published in the Charleston Courier, attempted some sort of weak, diluted reply to the remarks which I had uttered on the subieot of his Republicanism in { my speech of the 28th of July. I In that communication, extending to the I length of - two columns and a half. I nave look? ed in rain for any substantial defence against thc charge? preferred by me. He makes so j dental of my charge that he came to this city, originally, as a devout a Imircr of the old slave power of the South, and that he waa chosen [ as a teaoher by our commissioners, from I among his Northern compet? tors, because such was his character. Ho says nobbing of bis former or his pf esent affiliations with the Democratic party. Ile does I not disclaim'rh at bis chief counsellor at this day is a loading Do moora t of this city. And ho takes especial care to bc silent about my j allusions to his "sharp practico" in reference to the bill* ot the Bank of MiPState. Instead ot this, which alone would have been relevant to the subject of discussion, ho in- j dulges in a strain of personal invective and scurrility, in Which ns a "Carolina gentlemen" I (a term which ho applies to me with ? ?inister malice,) 1 oannot attempt to oompeto with him. I presumo that a ..Masjriohusotta gen? tleman" would be aa adverse as' myself to the I uso of such weapons, borrowed from the arm- J orv of Billingsgate. J His only attempt, except by unsupported ts sortions, to place himself, in the Republican ranks, is bj an appeal to the record of how he stood in tho rebellion. This certainly has nothing to do with bis claim to Republicanism now. But I apprehend that if he bad at the I timo belonged to that party, ho would have been tound, at the very commencement of the I rebellion, rather in tho army of the republio, I fighting for the life of the nation, than remain ing among its enemies and/ picking op a little addition to bis income by- indulging ia the un patriotic business of running the blockade at { the expense ot the revenues of the United S totes, at the same time that he gave "aid and comfort" to the Confederacy. Knowing I as I did how- easily he could have left the oitv at that time, knowing that he and other Northern men bad been Invited I by the authorities to depart from the Co nf ede racy, unies 3 they wore willing to become its citizens, and knowing-, toe, that he had no ties cf property or kindred to bind him to the State, not only I, but Some others who saw his stalwart form and soldierly bearing at the Union Club, often thought that he was the right man in the wrong place.) If every son of Massachusetts bad been inspired with the fee! lng of loyalty that actuatea, tho course of Mr. I 8awyer, that noble old State would have bad I no such gioiloos record aa that which history I now gives of its part in crushing the rebellion. I shall make no reply to Mr. Sawyer's de fence of Mr. Clark. IT Mr. Clark is competent to discharge the duties of a colleotor of cus? toms, he must certainly be able to defend him self; when be does so (if bo ever does > it will be time enough for me to pay my compliments to him. I should like to hear-bim deny, in his own person, the charge, that he sought the nomination of the Democratic rar ty for the Mayoralty. Neither shall I be diverted by the scurrilities ot Senator Sawyer into a contest'of personal invectives, liv quarrel is a political one. 1 seek to eave the Republican party from the results of his po litio il treachery. In that quarr ol, and in that quarr al alone,'will I fight until the battle is lost or won. s To but a single sentence of this tirade of abuse will 1 mane any reply. Mr, Sawyer in? sinuates that I belong to a " little koot of Southern-born men who recently proposed to I eaob other to ignore and put dowd men uot of Southern birth." I suspect that Air. Sawyor ima bore drawn I Upon ma imagination or his invention. 1 know of no such "knot of Southern born I men," and have heard of no sueh proposition. As far as 1 am Concerned, it is simply absurd. I Tbe priuci plo whiob has governed my entire ] life-a principle which did much to keep me from the heresy of State sovereignty and tbe sm of secession-is that In thia united land I ! recognize 11 no North, no South, no East, no I West." Every man, wherever born within oar vast do nain, is a ci tijou of one groat empire, entitled everywhere to equal privileges. ; My warmest and truest friends at this day I in the Republican party are men of Northern or Western birth. To me, all honest Republi cans are the same, no matter from what State J they may come. I do not denounce Mr. Saw- I ?er because Massachusetts gave him birth, but 1 3cau&e the political course ne is here pursu- I ing, if pursued at Boston, would meet with the j same just retribution that South Carolin'? will yet award to him. . My main charge against Mr; Sawyer is that j he is seeking to establish a Conservative party j in South Carolins, on the ruins of the BepaMf can, by a sale to Abe Democrats, it they will I purchase him. The only compr?hensible reply to this charge that he makes is contained io the following paragraph of bis communication, of whiob, aa an explicit r?cognition of the truth ot my alle? gations, I give him the Benefit of a rep?blica I tion. with his own italics/ I 'It is quite time for some Republicans to take notice that the people of South Carolina will give their voices for respectable and upriqht men, who may not be Republicans, rather than for dishonest and disreputable men ? whose j soundness on the parly issues m ty be never so j sure. The day when partisan soundness would I offset and outweigh the want of all other requi? sites for preferment has happily gone by, or is now toward its clean. If this he Conservatism, let Or. Mackey undnid friends mako the most of it." i This is Senator Sawyer's first open bid ten? dered to the Democratic party, lt will not, I presume, be accepted, because it is accompa? nied with some sort ol weak qualification, which, although it means nothing, the Demo? crats) will require to be stricken from the bond. i rv '. . But Mr. Sawyer has been too keen a specu? lator in blockade stock and m depreciated bank bills to be driven from the market by a first re fusa!. i His next bid will be without the quali? fication. Let me say to the gentlemen of the Demo? cratic party, that if they should buy the ?eds-: tor at ever so low a price, they will ba makiog a dear bargain. A. O. MACHST.

Captain Ferguson was born io Dumfries Scotland, in 1826, and at the age of twenty came to Charleston in a brig owned by hil unole. Having r solved to become a residen of the State, he obtained employment on Ihi steamer Marion, Captain Coates, then engag?e in the Peedee trade. By dint of industry am energy ho soon became captain and part owne of an independent steamer, and eventual!; secured the entire control of the trade of thu river. Daring tho war, he was kept busy sup plying the military authorities with facUitie for harbor transportation; and since 186S b has boen promiuent in the steamer and w bax business of our city.
