Tua HOLIDAY TKADI?.-As a general mle, the most extensive and liberal buyers of holiday goods do sot put off their purchases until the stocks have become low aad the crowd so great that they are unable to make satisfactory selec? tions. Indeed, as we happen to know, some of j Ute most desirable customers in that branch of trade are already on the lookout for souvenirs of the coming season. Dealers who propose to engage in it-and which of them does not* should therefore announce their attractions with? out delay, if they wish to reap an early harvest. We need hardly add, what they already know, that the advertising columns of THE NEWS, al? ways a reflex of tke business of thc city, are con? sulted now more than ever by t hose desiring bar? gains in any branch of trade. ^?HB CUF.APEST TET.-The NEWS Job Office 1? now printing bill-heads in the best style and ou fine paper, at $250 per thousand.

McGlUlvray sold yesterday several tracts of pine barren land .in BL Stephen's Parish, aggregating 2S81 acres, for $935. He also sold the plantation In St. Luke's Parish, known as Boirfleld, and containing 2400 .aores, for $1000. Messrs. Lowndes ft Grlmball sold the house and .lot at the northeast corner of Smith and Monta - _gne streets, known as No. 18 Smith street, for $8500. _ _ A RUNAWAY CAB AND A SMASHUP.-The railroad In Messrs. Bischoff & Co.'s store, though not extensive, docs a heavy business. The sched? ule ls frequently varied, bni the car is seldom idle. Yesterday, while lt was being rapidly pro? pelled through the store and worked by two Afri? can power, it acquired suoh a momentum that lt was Impossible to stop it, aud it came against the door at the terminus with a resistless force that broke through all barriers, scattered the freight In every direction, and demoralized the Africans. No lives were lost. $ -.-: In ic ORATIO K PROSPECTS are brightening. All the immigrants recently brought from Sweden by Mr. Ferio w have been satisfactorily located In Newberry County, and Mr. Perlow hlmsoir has gone on a visit to Florence, Sumter and Orange ourg, for the purpose of making arrangements for the passage and reception of more immi? grants. The Newberry Herald says : "Mr. F. W. Bmggeman, agent of immigration, now in New York, writes as that the prospect for securing a good class of German farm laborers is more fa? ctorable than heretofore, and that he can fill very many more orders in the most satisfactory way." FOUR HAW MAH. CARS.-The South Carolina ^Railroad Company nave Just completed at their workshops, ia this city, four new mall cars of an .improved pattern, which wUi be put on the road immediately. Tho cars are about ten feet longer than the passenger cars in general use, and have .compartments for the mall carrier and express messenger. The interior of the car is of Southern pine, highly polished and varnished, and is fitted up with every convenience. The facilities for as? sorting and distributing the mail will be greatly increased in these ears, and they will supply a ?want that has been toas felt. They will ron on tate main road and Columbia and Augusta BILL POSTING.-Tho habit of ornamenting fences; wails and sides of houses with enormous and often unsightly posters has grown to be a nuisance, and it was found necessary io have the prohibition "stick no UlUa'? on every piece of property tho owners wished to preserve from the vandal hands of this class of advertisers. For sou?time thia monition. Uko the famous "beware of the dog," kept intruders from the sacred pre? cincts; hut the community were not sufficiently enlightened to please the street advertisers, and they resorted to board fences built for that pur? pose. Several Improvements have been effected .oa tho style and size of these boards, but the latest wrinkle is a neat posting board, with an arched top, that is placed against the sides of She buildings at the street oorners. Numbers of these have been rocectly erected in the city, and the uninitiated are now Informed of their in? tended use. ^ .

The Charlotte Road will contLiue to use the present bridge of thc South Carolina Railrond until the new bridge is completed. EXTRBMHLY FISHY.-The exuberant energy of Captain Jenks, the street Inspector, has boon displayed to seme advantage on King-street, by the endeavor to convert that thoroughfare into a respectable place for vehicles. Ills ambition was laudable and the end desirable: but though King street ls now a shell road aad a pleasant drive, the change has been accompanied by "an ancient and a fish-like smell"-an aroma not in Lubln's extracts, that renders the atmosphnre noxious, and, walking down oar Broadway, ls a trial to the olfactories. Fortunately, the evil is not Irreme? diable. Time can work wonders, and the new shell road, like good wine, will Improve with age.

FIKHMEX'S COCKTKSIKS.-The Sunday Mer? cury, of Philadelphia, says: "At a stated meeting of the Weecacoe Steam Fire Engine Company, No. 19, held on Wednesday evening, 1st instant, the company were the recipients of a handsome and tasteful engraving, beaut Bully framed, of the Pal? metto Steam Fire Engine Company, of Charles? ton, S.C.^ The engraving was presented on be? hau- of the Palmetto boys throngh their esteemed president, Hugh Ferguson, Bsq., by E. D. Wood raff, Jr., a member of the Weecacoe. and was re? ceived with warm thanks by the latter company. Resolutions appropriate to thc occasion, and ex? pressive of their obligation for the kindness ami brotherly sympathy of the Palmetto, were pass?d unanimously and entered on the minutes." "A GROSS INDIGNITY TO SOBTH CAROLINA SBNATOHS.''-Under .nts heading the Radical pa? per in Richmond, Va.^ays: "A gross outrage was perpet rated on the Otb instant at Clover HUI Station, on the Danville- Railroad, by the authori? ties of that road, by ejecting from the cars three colored State senators from South Carolina, and treating them to Indignities. I nit ed States Sena? tors Sawyer and Robertson and several members of Congress from South Carolina, on their way to Congress, were accompanied by three State senators or the same State, highly respectable oolored men, all bright mulattoes. Ttie&e latter purchased first class tlcfceu at Columbia, and rode la a first class car through the re? constructed States of South and North caro? lina, without molestation ; but when they reached the Virginia line their troubles began. At Dan? ville they were ordered ont of the ilrst-cla.>s car, but refused to leave it. There w^s a good deal of excitement, and no effort was at onco mad< to eject them. On reaching Clover Hill Btatlou, however, two of them happened to get out to obtain refreshments, and whoa they would have entered again were refused admittance, and forced to take their places in a common cur. The third, Senator Wright, was tlieu ordered out, but persisted la retaining his seat. At Clover Sta? tion, however, hy order of President Buford, oar informant says, he was forcibly ami roaghly ejected, amid great confusion and excitement, and much to the Indignation of thc South Caro? lina senators and members, lt is said there was a lively time on board tho train." This is posi? tively too bad. The Old D jmlnion uodls recou structlng. A GREAT BIL?. TO-NIGHT AT THE ACADEMY. Manager Ford has certainly discovered the secret of how to draw crowded houses here: "mt whether lt consists In the winning ways of thc witching Sisters who have already turned Hie heads of all young Charleston, or whether lt lies In thc inerra? ble drollery or lll3hop. wi.3 makes the old a3 well as young laugh untd the/ cry, is a point which the discriminating public must decide for itself. Whatever the attraction, the Academy-par? quette, galleries and boxes-was again crowded last night, and enjoyment was written on every face in the eager throng. Fra Diavolo. like every burlesque that the company has as yet presented, was charmingly rendered-thc fair Bianche, In top-boots, making so bright and taking a brigand that the whole audience became her ^il'irig cap? tives. A banjo solo .'rom : he sprite, little l-.'iU waa applauded to the coho. And t!:cn there was i'.:<:<\ -firstBeppo and then as Madam-.: Vanderpants-and as every bc Ij did nothing bul lau?u while Bishop -T.?S "i sight, and as it ls Impossible to describe Ids Inagitable appcarar.ee, we ixrtirar. aid advise our readers by all means to see us ina.m ot Bishop as possible, If they would drive ?u'.l curt- away. . I Thc Chapman Sisters aro to have tuelr jeneUl this evening, and we uro sure that thc announce? ment will be enoQgh to crowd the Academy to its utmost capacity. By far tah best bill of thc sea? son is to be presented, including Bucicstone's cap- I ital comedy, "The Pet of the Petticoats," togct ne? witt the classical burlesque of Lsion, which was so splendidly produced on Mouday last. The Sisters, as well aa Mr. Bishop, appear ia both pieces, and we caa safely promise our readers a rare treat. We have already alluded to tho ancestral claims which the fair toneaclariee onjoy to oar oouside ration. Fifty years ago their maternal grand? mother, the famous Mrs. A. Brake, was the tragic qneen of the American s ?age, and was ari especial favorite of the Charleston audiences of thar. day. Their grandfather was the eminent actor, Sam Chapman, who married a daughter of the tirst Jefferson. And whoever bus seen the charming young actresses must admit that their personal merits in nowise anbeseem their histrionic lineage. Let them have a house to-night which will give them m the futuro pleasant recoll?e:.oas or their reception and substantial appreciation by the cit? izens of Charleston. "Aladdin" wlK be presented at the matinee to-morrow-a glorious sight for the children. LUNCH at Torck's "Our Houao" to-day Trill consist of oyster soup, bolled mutton, with caper sauce, boUed rockash and the trimmings. Hotel Arrivals-December 9. CHARLESTON HOTEL. F. E.
