Toe fire was communicated from a j ?broke? kerosene lamp, and, in less time than it , lakes to write lt. the whole stage was enveloped ta flames. Before the audience had time to rush 1 to tbe doors the whole interior of tho theatre was a utas? of fire. Tho scene which carnied bailies description. Meu and boys rushed for the door, -overturn.ng and tramoiiu.r np >a oach other in their seras:We tO:f?t-ape tito tembl? death threatened them. After the rush bad soincwimt ?eased, heartrend ng eries for assistance were heard proceeding from the interior of the burn- < <ng bul ding, and, after dil gent exertion, severn ; parsons were extr'cated aMvo. Two dead bodies ( Wc-rc 11ea t hen ont, and. as they lay ia the dead haute, presented a most sad and heart-sickening ijjbowtAt, AU tte etovh?ag was burned ott, ' and tho teak was ttirtr wested. ne bodies seemed drawn up tm a neap te present | as small a surface to the flames 'as possible, and In this position tho poor fellows suffered the worst agony and died. Their faces were burned te a crisp and defied all attempts at recognition. Their hands were barned, the ends of their fingen being burned off. One man met with a fearful death. Although not severely barned, if burned at all, he was choked and smothered with the smoke. He tried to crawl to the outlet and suc? ceeded until he reached the partition wall. Herc he became confused, and, turning, went directly towards the burning aiagc. A few feet beyond he struck a bench which had been pulled out of | ?ts place, and could not proceed. In bin confu? sion it was evident that he felt himself In a pen from which there was no escape. Sinking on his knees, Ids hands were thrown over the bench, as | ft he was in thc attitude of prayer. For Tikis Time Only. The mummers and bummers who ape the manners and assume thc name of "mem? bers of the General Assembly of South Caro? lina" meet in Columbia to-day, and to-rnor- j row, Beelzebub permitting, the pantomime will begin. The plot of the Legislative farce is ao well worn that we. know just what to expect, whether from the clowns or the Housa, tho harlequins of the Senate, or the columbines of the Executive Mansion. The stage has been newly decorated for the occasion, and tho legislators will pass their days in the midst of unwonted sploudor of upholstery and gilding; but thc programme will not j have many variations. The white renegade, the black booby anil the brown Adonis will repeat tito queer an? tics which became so familiar before the close of the last regular session. Governor Scott aili present his message of love nod peace, in which he will laud to Ute skies South Carolina Radicalism, explain the con? dition of the State, pat ou thc back "the young man of much promise" who is our trusted financial agent, und lay the blame of all that goes wrong on the bended shoul? ders of respectability and worth. There will be glowing pictures in charcoal of what South Carolina will be in the future. Perch-! ed ou the reconstruction fence and sighing for a second term, the Gubernatoral squat ter will promise the business men a retuc tion of expenses, and the property holders lower taxation. At the same time he will fling himself into the embraces of Cuflee and promise that odorous iudividual fat j offices, land and whiskey, and gold galore-- j all at the cost of tho State. The Comptrol? ler-General will show what has boen spent during the year, and will prove to his own .satisfaction that every dollar laid out was the natural fruit of the extravagance of pro ceding administrations. Like "His Excel? lency," he will apologize and promise. Th? same old story I When the message baa boon read over and prayed over, the leading performers will ope their gracious mouths and chalk out thc legislation of thc session. For a week or j two, the wheels will roll smoothly-lalor they will require incessant greasing. At first, Lhere maybe av show of awful moderation. The Radical Satans will rebuke Democratic sin. Bnt long before the end of thc session the motley crew will be hard at work as usual-upsetting good laws and framing j bad ones, doing all they can for their own profit and the loss of the State. They will begin mildly and meekly, but before they adjourn they will rage for greenbacks as of | yore. The General Assembly will sit as long as the members ean squeeze out a per diem, and contingent remainders in the shape of j Tees and mileage. When they are filled with | pence and plunder, they may consent to ad? journ. One consolation we have : When tho cur? tain falls it will fall forever on the creatures ] who have been, and are, a shame and a de- j ?rjadation to erery decent man in all South karolina. When the bell rings, in 1870, diere will be a new play and new players. Pricking the Babble. The news which we print this morning, in .egard to the Blue Ridge Railroad, ia a com jlcte vindication of the justice of the strlc ttres which this paper has passed upon the vhole project, sinco it went Into Radical lands, as well as a gratifying proof that iveu Radical hides cannot long withstand he scourging of a bold aad independent j ire3S. When Governor Scott and Mayor PLUs lury, who, by virtue of their office, control | tine-tenths of tho stock capital of thc road, javc the contract for its completion to Criss-1 -ell, Patteraou & Co., at a round price of | >9,000,000, we held up to public reproba- J ion the schemes of the Radical ring, and ixplained the why and wherefore of the uo arious transaction. Thc road was only to | oat $4,000,000 in 18G0, and thc $9,000,000 ' ertainly left abundant room for the* pay-, ncnt of commissions to the Governor and ll his satellites. As soon as Tea NBWS aid bare the ins and outs of the negothv ion, and showed that the Blue Ridge Rail oad alone would add about $10,000,000 to he State debt, and weuki double the State axatiou, the market for the State bonds uddenly became dull and depressed, and bc contractors and their tools began to fear hat it would bo impossible for them to get j id of the State guaranteed bonds at any ttirtg near par. Tiien they !iad also to ron he gauntlet of the General Assembly for an intension of thc umonnt to bc guaranteed, rom Si,000,003 to C9.009,000. This damp-1 id the ardor of tba contractors, a:xl they J voukt Uxi? fonded their bo.r:;aiii long ago , ?ad not a conttoction of Governor ScoU'd t laved their crodit by going to work atone < vith pick and spade umang tho rriDur.?tns i vhicb oversh&low Walhall*. Aud Govern- ( rr Scott himself began to be alarmed. Thc ( Jtatc bonds would not rise. Tho financial i rablic regarded ocrl?a?ical government and i icgro Legislature as moro than a sot-off to >ur dela of only C5 000,090 nnd Ibo growing t iros-perity of tao people. Tlio only interest | hat Governor Scott had in the Elue Ridge < iailroad was s personal interest, and when t ie found that his pct contractors did not j ililli their bargain, ho threw them over- i loard as be had already thrown overboard ( ill regard for*tho honor and proiitof the < State. : Tho meeting of atockhoLlera herd on Sot- t inlay was a private ouc. No reportera were t idmitted, but it has ba od oui that a colored : iireotor was el ctod und that the dir ctore I laca annulled the ?9,000,009 onlracl with | JrtssooU, Patterton <?

It ts trae t. ot the.? e>u If OOt,- < OM bondi which the State hon already con? sented to endorse, bat even if these sro stolen or frittered away the people will still sara nt least $6,000,000. This result is due, we may fairly claim, to Tris CHARLESTON NKWS alone. Conviacod that tlie enterprise, in the hands of Scott and Pillsbury, whatever ita intrinsic merits, had become a gigantic swindle, TOR NEWS proclaimed the fact; it exposed the manner of awarding the contract; it showed the ex? orbitant prices proposed to bo paid for ma? terials; it explained to the foreign capitalist that Radicalism was breaking our backs and forcing thc people toward repudiation. These revelations, at first, aroused a storm of anger and irritation. Wo were told that we were stabbing the credit of the State and depreciating the bonds; we were as? sured that TUE NRWS was injuring ito best friends, and that its course could do no good. But thia journal waa not lead by entreaty or swayed by threat It swung the tomahawk over thc head of Radicalism in season and out of season. It prave them uo mercy who had shown our people? nano. And the re? sult ia that Scott and Pillsbury are cowed and defeated; that, nine millions of dollars is saved to South Carolina; that $630,000 a year or interest fa saved to the people, and that the Radical officials, cowering before just denunciation, suddenly discover that they are opposed, at present, to increasing thc debt cf thc State for any purpose what? ever. Such an increase they reel must jeo? pardise the pickings and stcaliuga already snugly invested in State bonds, which would droop lower and lower, so that ail that they would gain in railroad bribes, and more, would bo lost in falling bonds. Tun NRWS has donc a good work, and will not hold its hand until every Radical rascal, who now pollutes the body politic, is hurled from the omeo which he has disgraced. Temporizing with these people is useless. They must be lashed into repentance, and then kickod ont of the State. The Charleston flanks. Public attention has already boen directed to the cheering fact that the revival is nov.' certain of some of the oki Charleston banks, which, during their active career, were noted for ability of management, high credit and fair dealing. These establishments have, it is true, lost much of thc capital which they formerly possessed ; but, overtaken as they were by the common disaster, it is pleasing to know that they have cuougb capital re? maining to pay off ul! their outstanding lia? bilities, and enable them to resume opera? tions un dor thc Dames so long familiar to thc merchants of the State. Tb? Southern States are fairly launched on thc tide which leads to fortune, the wbole Southern coun? try is steadily strengthening ita position, and with a prospect of continued high prices for thc Soothers staples aud an active de? mand for business capitol, the banking cs tablishments which arc now born again may reasonably look forward to a long and suc? cessful career. The Charleston banks to which we par? ticularly refer are : L The Union Baak, which has been in ex? istence for about half a century, and has always been marked by prudent manage? ment, a feature which was impressed upon it especially by the late Rene Godard, for a long time its president. Thc original capi? tal of the Union Bank was $1,000,000; but thia was seriously diminished during the war. Tho bank is now doing business, and its means aro expected to tie enlarged at an sarlyday. W. R. Smith, Esq., thc presi iest, a successful and wealthy merchant of Lhis city, will doubtless continue to conduct ita affairs with prudence and cautious care. 2. Tho' Planters' and Mechanics' Bank, always a favorite institution, was established >n thc beginning of this century bj tho late William Ai ken--father nf ex-Governor liken-John Robinson, the Messrs. Ravc leX, and other prominent merchants. Mr. Ch?mas Blackwood was its president for nany years, and Daniel Ravenel Esq., tho >resent president, has been connected with t almost from its foundation. Thc capital )f this bank, $1,000,000, was for the most >art swept away by the war, but an asaoss nent on tho stockholders ?H now making, uid it will go ut once to work. 3. The Bunk of Charleston was establish- ; ii about 1836 to moet tho wants of the grow- j og trade of Charleston, and facilitate tho ne- f jotiatiou of foreign and domestic exchange. n this department the bank did a large and [ ucrative business, while its general credit 1 c vas so good that Bank of Charlostou bills a vero taken at par in Europe. Among thc 1 bunders of the bank wera thc late General ' fames Hamilton, who was the first prcai- t lent, James Adger, Kerr Boyce and H. W. 1 Jonner, as well as thc Hon. G. A. Treu- ; rabB, Henry Gourdin, Esq., and C. T. iowndca, Esq., the present president, who i las contrived to meet all the liabilities r if thc bauk and retain a surplus equal to [ ibout 25 per cent, on the capital of ?3.00O,- t ?0. ? L The People's Bank was established a ? cw years before the war, with a capital of ? 11,000,000. This bank suffered heavily; but udiaious flnanciering has enabled it to re- 5 leem its bills and have a sufficient capital J vitfa which to resume basilicas. This bank va3 well managed by the late president, D. [* McKay, aud enjoyed a high reputation, vhioh it Still retains. Thc three hank3 last named may bc ex- , >ocLod to go into bcsine&J before thc litt ? ?aunary with an active capital or about tl,360,000. This, ndfttd V) thc capital of , he two national ban!<3, tho liOan and Trust t Company and the Onion Bank, will given;; v ut activo banking copi tai of about $2,260,- '; WO, wilie!], although far below tho ?514, 103,000 of capital which wo had in L380, ? viii materially relieve Liis financial preaeuro t shieh now reslra'wfl the free course of trad':. - Tho gentlemen who will have charge ol' he now banka will, wc are euro, show a s iracticJ appreciation of thc peenhor ne- [ J033it't?3 of the situation, and will k;io JV how j o combino aa enlarged liburalily with t imper circumspection ; nor will they neglect " o uso tl::; in.'ans at their command so an to uicourage thc rapid development of thc jommerce of our city. At thc same time it . jiusi nul be forgotten that, hero is no certain 5 rifely ?->r Ina banker a- merchant so long J ia ocr bxuincss t ^orations aro based upon in irrcdooniiiilo paper currency, and, fer i" luis reason, lhere uhould bc u parsistont ?

The papers announce that thc mer- . ?hautB of New York are organising a pow jiiul eatabhslunea* v. inch shall unite the ? fa-itnree of a gold and a currency Kook. Such a bank in this city would draw to itself ] at once alargo business, and would soon secure tho confidence of persons in the in? terior, who now hoard up their gold and make it valueless for all useful purposes. If tbey could deposit thoir coin in the gold do part mont of thc bank, knowing that the two departments would be kept separate in every particular, their coniUence would rapidly return, and the large amount of specie now lyiDg idle, would bc brought forth to give to our trade a new stability and life. This would materially strengthen our position, and would pave thc way by degrees to a rc return to specie payments. We should like to see one of thc old Charleston banks re? vived upon the gold and currency plan. iTJflntg.
