SUDDEN DEATH.-Mr. Henry Oetjen, an old resident of this city, died suddenly, on Saturday, fromMlsease of the heart. He hud eaten his dinner, and was in apparent good health when the stroke same without warning. By lus Industrious and j frugal habits Mr. Oetjen had acquired a nice prop? erty, and was among our most respected German fellow-citizens. He waa fifty-six years of age, and had been a resident of Charleston for thirty four years. He leaves a wife and four children. Ax INY?LUSTAsr BATH.-Early yesterday morning, while a benighted individual was tortu? ously, wending his way homeward, he encounter? ed the Artesian Wen troughs, in Wentworth street. The sight of so much water evidently made him sea sick, and a sudden lurch destroy? ing ob? equilibrium, he was placed hors au com? bat &i the bottom of the trough. The situation was embarrassing, but the ducking proved more efficacious, than 'the famous "hock and soda," and hs resumed his homeward tramp a wetter and a wiser man, toongi more firmly convinced that water should be taken with moderation. ACCIDENT TO TH? ACADEMY OP MUSIC-The heavy rain of Friday night caused some damage to the celling of the Opera-House, a portion of the fresco work having basa saturated with water which caused lt to fall to the ground. It appears that a skylight over thc third tier had not been glased, but only covered by a tarpaulin. This ' proved an tasufleiont protection, but the damage was fortunately confined to the scroll work and eau. be easily repaired. If the dome bad been In? jured, lt would .have been a much more serious ?natter, lt.is proposed, notwithstanding the ac? eden t, to have th?. interior scaffolding removed by Tuesday night, so as to allow the upholsterers fun swing. _^ UN&ED STATES COURT-HON.

A CONSTABLE OUTWITTED.-The constable whose mishaps, in pursuit of an escaped prison? er, have been already chronicled, was again made the victim of misplaced confidence. A few days since, he traced his man to the '".?iith Caroona Railroad depot, and then and ii n seized him. The game was snared and all oc^med serene, but the wily prisoner proved Agata to be too smart for bis captor, and raising his stick he tapped the constable on the cranium. Tho blow was given with a Tim, and the constable, wilting under its effects, relaxed hm hold and the quondam prison? er, measured off the ground on a lively pair of legs. The constable registered a huge oath that j he won't be outwitted the next time. - PILOTAGE_The Philadelphia Ledger says: " At a meeting of the vessel owners and captains' association of philadelphia, on Wednesday, the attention of the board of directors was called to illegal charges for - pilotage In Charleston harbor, S. C^ It ls the custom there to charge full pilot? age ft very high rates against all vessels, whether sthey take a pilot er not. This was protested against, aird a resolution passed instructing the captains of au Vessels belonging to the association that are enroRed^BjuiCiicenscd In the coasting trade not to pey pilotage on arriving at or departing from the ?fort of Charleston unless a pUot renders service. As litigation may result, it was also resolved that the association will defend aU suite arising nuder the foregoing resolution." -?-: SURVIVORS' ASSOCIATION FOB RICHLAND.

To SOBSCRIBEBSFOR CHINAMEN.-The Savan? nah Republican says: "After a consultation with the sub-agent at this place, we feel lt to be our duty to advi?e those who have contracted with Mr. Joseph, or San Francisco, for Chinese labor er3,^noi to depend upon them for the crop of 1870, but to go on and hire other hands as usual. We do not wish to be understood as reflecting upon the integrity or coed faith of Mr. Joseph or his company-and hi has stipulated for no particular ^day for their delivery, the uncerialntles of the seas malting it inexpedient-bot we are convinced, In jrtew of the great distance and the short time to intervene, that tho laborers cannot be got here ta time to put in thc coming crop. We believe they wm be here during the spring or early summer, and, borne when they may, if subscribers are al? ready supplied with satisfactory force, there win be no difficulty tn getting either class of laborers off their hands for the remainder of the year."

A large and attentive audience assembled last evening, in St. Patrick's Church, to hear a lecture from Bishop Lynch on the "Liquefaction of the blood of St. Januarius." The Bishop gave his audience a vivid description of a visit to Italy, with full details of the miracle as witnessed by himself. He depicted in glowing colors the trials of the saint, and his martyrdom about fifteen centuries ago, and closed with a life-like picture of Naples and the church where the miracle oc? curs. St. Januarius was killed by Dloclesean, on the 19th September, 305, and every year since, at the same date, his blood, which was carefully preserved, is said to be liquified. The Bishop kept the attention of his audience to the close of the lecture. It was given to defray the debt of the church, and will realize a handsome amount. The audience was comprised of every denomina? tion, and numbers who could not obtain seats remained standing. WALHALLA.-Thc Oconee Courier gives this sketch of the Vfllage by the Ridge: "There is no need of idleness here. Work, work, is the great want. There ls activity m every branch of Indus? try. Buildings are going np from the depot to the north end, and the saw and hammer of the carpenter are busy. Old build Inga are being re? fitted and repainted, adding to the appearance of the place. The forge of the smith is not allowed to get celd. Everybody that wants employment ts basy, and the jafer, the drone of society, finds no associates. Walhalla ls growing and spread? ing out her arms, Inviting trade. Already m area and inhabitants, she ls ahead of her sister towns of the mountains. Her business houses are more numerous and active than in any np-conntry town. A generous competition governs In every branch ef trade, giving tee farmer the best prices fer his produce and the cheapest market to sup? ply his wants. New cora opened in this place at $1 per bushel, old corn ls stul selling at $1 50. Cotton was sold here .last week at 2CV? to 24 ?.nts.? _ MONTHLY CONCERT OF THE ST. JOHN'S LU? THERAN CHURCH SUNDAY SCHOOL.-The exercises of this school were agreeably diversified yesterday afternoon by breeches from some of the pupils and singing by the sCJiool in concert. The church was crowded, the classes occupying the. pews on the centre aisle, the occupants of which were forced to find accommodation elsewhere. Speeches were made by the following young gentlemen, all of whom acquitted themselves handsomely: St. Clair West, "Perseverance;" Herbert Smith, "Ap? peal for Teachers;" Julian Smith, "The best that I can do;" Charles von Santen, "It ls more blessed to give;" Christopher Tidemann, "Childhood's Home," The young speakers handled their sub? jects like born orators, and only the sacredness of the place and the recollection o' the day prevented their receiving their meed of applause. The ex? ercises were varied by singing, m which the little choristers showed great proficiency. An address, suitable to the occasion was delivered by Rev. Dr. Hicks. The Sunday school ls under the superin? tendence of Mr. Robert Chlsolm, arid ls m a flour? ishing condition. BOWEN AND MACKEY-ALMOST A BLOODY ENCOUNTER.-About two o'clock on Saturday afternoon, when business men were preparing to go to their dinners, ?rt incident took place which varied, In a rather agreeable manner, the dullness that reigned around the historic corners of Broad and Meeting streets. Ex-Alderman Thomas Jef fersoa Mackey was standing near the guard? house conversing with Officer Nlpson and Rounds? man Read, when his eagle eye espied the Honora? ble Christopher Columbus Bowen coming from the direction of the Fireproof building. Promptly crossing over to the Courthouse cerner, Mackey confronted Bowen, whom he accosted -in language decidedly more forcible than x elegant. He said that having heard that he (Bowen) had expressed a desire to meet him m reference to the letter pub? lished in THE NEWS of Saturday morning; he (Mackey) had come to reassert to his face the charges that had been made in print. And this he proceeded to do in a de? liberate and not very genteel fashion. The monologue (for Boweu spoke not a word) was interspersed with spicy allusions to the Honorable gentleman's eventfnl career, and was accom? panied with gestures which might fairly bc set dow? as unmistakable symptoms of an over-dose of morphine. Bowen, however, seems to have neglected to take his dose of the pugnacity-in? spiring drag, and muttering something about not wishing to soil lils (not over-clean) hands by touching his assailant, made a desperate and successful push at an accelerated pace for the Courthouse eut rance. Once within its sheltering portals, Bowen rapidly dispersed, while thc vengeful Mackey was left out in the cold. CRUMBS.-Joseph Auton was arrested for as? sault and battery on Angelo Cervctes. The aifray occurred on Union wharf. - Annie Adams, for stealing ninety dollars in money and two.coats, was arrested by Officer Lovett and committed for investigation. A little son of Wm. Hanleys was run over by an express wagon in King street last Friday even? ing. Though seriously injured, no bones were broken. The three hundred dollar music box raffled at Von Santen's, was won by Miss Emily c. Ravenel. Mr. Peabody's death was anuounced to thc teachers of the public schools on Saturday, and the exercises of their schools closed from respect to his memory. A boat that was reported to be stolen was found by Officer Lovett on the schooner N. W. Smith. The captain stated that lt had been picked up adrift. A fracas was threatened on Saturday evening between some of the employees at the South Car? olina Railroad shops and the police were sent for, but the crowd dispersed without any disturbance. It is rumored that a cockfight wlU soon take place between two "stags" from Georgetown and Charleston, at one hundred dollars a side. Hugh Craig has been appointed by Governor Scott Judge of probate for Chesterfield County. Charles Edmondston, magistrate for Barnwell County, has been removed. Tlie respective chiefs or the rival Radical clans arc evidently on thc alert to conciliate the men or the "rich Irish brogue." Pillsbury and Mackey were attentive and conspicuous listeners to the lecture or Bishop Lynch at St. Patrick's Church last evening. Norf ced. Tribute of Respect. At a meeting of Mechanics' Union, No. 1, held at Eagle Hall, on Monday, November 2, the fol? lowing preamble and resolutions were adopted: Whereas, la the all-wise providence ot Almighty God, this Union has been deprived, for the first time since its organization, by death, of one of its members; we desire, therefore, to place upon record some evidence or respect and esteem. Be lt, therefore, Resolved, That in the death or our brother member, GEORGE KRUSE, this Union has lost one who, though connected w.th us but f^r a short time, bid fair to become a useful and zealous member. Resolved, That a blank page In onr minute book be Inscribed and dedicated to his memory. Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family or our deceased brother, with the expressions or our deep sympathy la their bereavement. J3eso!r?o\ That these resolutions be published in the dally papers. J. B. KIMMEY, Secretary.

RUSSELL'S SOOTHING CORDIAL ls offered to the public with an absolute guarantee against all danger from Its use. Read the following certifl CHARLESTON, May 16,1868. Mr. J. B. Rr/SSELL, one of our careful and Intel? ligent Pharmaceutists and Apothecaries, lu. 3 sub? mitted to my examination the formula for the preparation of a Soothing Cordial prepared and vended by him. It affords me pleasure to express a favorable opinion of its safe and efficient adaptation to the particular cases or the diseases or children, which it is designed to relieve. E. GEDDINGS, M. D. naving had occasion to prescribe RUSSELL'S1 Soothing Cordial lu severe cases ol Bowel Com? plaints in children and delicate reinales, I have been much pleased with Its effects. I consider lt a valuable medicine in all cases, in which it may be advisable to avoid the use or auodyne, and par? ticularly Tor family use, as lt is perfectly safe. W. T. WRAGG, M. D. CHARLESTON, S. C., 186?. Dear Sir-I have used your Soothing Cordial for Dlarrhwa in teething children, and lind it a very excellent preparation, lt has a great advantage over most preparations of the kind In containing no Opium or Narcotic. When these ure required they can be added In proportions applicable to the case. I therefore can recommend Us usc In thc affec? tions for which it is designed. Respectfully yours, Ac, T. L. OG 1ER, M. D. CHARLESTON, S. C.. 1868. I certify that I have most successfully used RUSSELL'S Soothing Cordial in thc Summer Com? plaints ol infants. He has fully exhibited thc In? gredients of his remedy, and the tedious method or preparation. 1 recognize the prescription containing no anodyne whatever-as a most safe and efficacious one in bowel affections of children. When much pain or restlessness attends the affec? tion, doses or Paregoric can be added to the pre? scribed doses or thc Cordial according to the age or the patient. The compound, though more orten, acts in an efficient manner without any ad? dition or anodyne. In the Diarrhoa of the aged, In Increased doses, lt ls or great value as a remedy; never dleagroe iug with tlie stomach-increasing appetite, im? proving digestion, and acting as a Blow but offi? cient astringent agent.
