PETER'S CATHOLIC FAUL-This fair has ^^been >o weil attende! during the past week that Ht: has been determined to continue it until Wed HHfcsday next. A number of additions have buen (apile, and lt has been rendered, If possible, more attractive than heretofore. As the object of the fair ls a most deserving one, it should have a sub? stantial and liberal support. . BLACK MONDAY.-Christmas is over, 1SC9 is numbered with the past, and Blacka^Ionday dawns te-day. The "high old time" enjoyed dnr lng the holidays renders the return to the thral? dom of school or work-a-day Lye somewhat irk? some, and the transition from play to toil will be keenly felt for a time. Thc varions schools in the city resume their exercises to-day, and there will be no more vacation until the Easter holidays. GRAND MASQUERADE BALL.-Our friends of | the Freundschaftsbund, who are always so sue" cess'al in devising and carrying out schemes of social enjoyment, are getting ready for a grand masquerade ball, to came off at Hibernian Hall, on the evening of the 3d of February. It will probably eclipse anything of the kind that has ever been seen in Charleston. Although the num? ber of tickets will be limited, a cordial Invitation ls extended to thc friends of thc Bund and the general public to participate in the festivities. DEPARTURE CF TUE SPAXISII FLEET.-^The fifteen Spanish gunboats that have been anchored off the battery for the yast few days went to sea on Saturday morning in tow of the steamtng Samson. The frigate Tizarro was In w<ing out? side, and the fleet was soon on its way to the "Ever Faithful Isle." Two of the gunboats have not been heard from and are supposed to have be% lost on the North Carolina coast. The wind was very high on Saturday night and the sea? going qualities of the "musquito fleet" were doubt Vss severely tested. CHARLESTON TYPOGRAPHICAL SOCIETY.-At the seml-centeunlal anniversary of the Charleston Typographical Society, held on the 1st instant, the following officers were unanimously elected for the ensuing year: Thomas J. Webb, president; .C. "A. D, Church, vice-president; S. D. Dutson, treasurer, vice J. W. Ratland, who declined a re? election; James Ronan, secretary. Standing Com? mittee-J. Carr, J. W.

It can be seen for a few days at Mr. Allan's Jewelry store, No. 307 King street, and ls well worthy of inspection as a very superior article of American workmanship. We also understand that the yoong ladies of thc Sunday school of this church also presented then* beloved pastor, on Christmas lost, with a hand somejiuggy blanket and rag, as a token of their appreciation. MASONIC ELECTIONS_At a regular conT?ca^ tion of Washington Chapter, No. 24, R.A. M., held at Bamberg, S. C., December 25,1869, A. L. 5809, tthe following officers were elected: C. J.

Judge Long? street does not mince matters, and mildly asks thc reader whether he has "used a severity to? wards Mr. Perry' unbecoming his age and caU lng." We have an interesting paper on "Early Literary Progress ia South Carolina," by Dr. Simms; "Pattes de Velours," a graceful poem by Mr. Sass, and "Shoulder to Shoulder," by Per? sonne; "A Message from thc Sea" wiU not, we re? gret to say, add to the literary r?putation of the magazine. Poor prose is better than yard-stick poetry. The proprietors announce that in the February number will be given the opening of a new South? ern romance "The Storm and the Sunset," by Colonel Harry Cleveland. - SHREDS OF STATE NEWS.-The Orangerjrrrg--| News says that there has been a great rise m the Edisto. The whole swamp ls under water, for three-quarters of a mlle from the river bank. Mr. Al. P. Harley's dam has given way, and the water has overflowed lt In several places. Thc bridges are all badly damaged, though none of them are entirely gone. Moses Dowlll, of Georgetown, was badly burned on Christmas day, by the explosion of a flask of powder. On Wednesday, thc 22d ult., thc store of Mr. A. Morgan, of Georgetown, was robbed of a sum of money; and on Monday night a negro named Buces was shot while making a similar attempt. Alf/ed Geiger, negro, has been arrested on sus? picion of being one of the would-be murderers of Mrs. Sarah1 Richardson, near Columbia. Mrs Richardson may recover. CRUMBS.-The Union League wore. crape on their badges on Saturday, as a mart of respect to Stanton. lr Sam Dickerson, the valiant captain of a colored company, had an altercation aa Saturday with 1 an outsider, also colored, In which the latter so far forgot the respect ?tue Sam's bullion epau? lettes, as to strike him with a small stick. Sam was not "spiling for a fight," and had the offender, arrested. Flags were flying on Saturday from the City Hall and Guardhouse-H U presumed la honor or the emancipation anniversary. Ford's Dramatic Company are staying at the pavilion Hotel, aud Miss Laura Alexauder is at the Charleston. Officer Lovett has arrested Sarah Rivers, color? ed charged wlthOhe larceny or $100 from Miss Drayton, and Joseph Young, colored, charged With shoplifting from Mrs. Campbell, at the cor? der of Hanover and Columbus streets. " NEW TEAR'S DAT-THE EM ANTI r.v non CELE? BRATION.-New Year's day in Charleston passed oft" with marked quiet. It was very generally made thc occasion as usual of social and family reunions; hut if we except the turnout of a few of Hie colored people, there was no outdoor inci? dent worthy of note. The procession formed in honor or the anniver? sary of emancipation was composed of four color? ed military companies, followed l>y a straggling linc made up of thc mcmUcrs of the Union League and other colored associations. The whole Was preceded bj a baud, and was under Hie chief niar Shalship or Magistrate T. J. .Mackey -the only white man, by thc way. in thc pageant-who was supported in ?he execution or his arduous duties by as mauy ebony assistants, on prancing chargers, as would have surtlccJ to marshal a countless host. After inarching through the principal streets, the procession went to thc Military Hail, where thc emancipation proclamation was read by R. D. Artson, colored, and an oration delivered by W. il: Mishaw, colored. Speeches were also made by T. J. Mackey and F. J. Moses, Jr. Mayor Pillsbury, Collector Clark, and the lead? ing Republicans of the city, both white and col? ored, were all invited to participate jn the cele? bration, but they did not respond. Tiic Uuiou League, "though mostly colored, has about 150 white men enrolled on ifs list of members, but they were all minus on this occasion. BUSINESS CHANGES.-rr? addition to the busi? ness changes incident to the New Year, which we already noticed, announcements ol the following will bc found in thc advertising columns or THE NEWS: LENGNI. X A- SELL.-Mr. Charles Foster has been admitted into this firm, the style or which will in ruturebe Lcuguick, Sell A Foster.

TIDEMANN A Co.-This Urra having^bcen dissolved by mutual consent, the business will bc continued by two of thc partners, Messrs. Wm. Burmestcr and John D. Zerbst, under the style of Burmestcr A Zerbst. HAMLET AT THE ACADEMY.-This everting, after an Interval of nearly twelve years, there ls to be a revival of the Shakespearean drama on thc Charleston stage. Everybody will bc glad to have a season or the noble tragedies with which wc arc all so Tamiliar, especially as they will be brought out In splendid style. Manager Ford has been at great expense to secure for a few nights thc services of Neil Warner, the eminent Eng? lish tragedian, who will appear in a series of the standard and favorite plays. Mr. Warner will bc supported, we feel authorized to say, by an excellent combination or talent. To night wc arc to have Hamlet, Mr. Warner personating thc moody Prince or Den? mark. Miss Eldridge, whom we have hitherto known chiefly in comedy parts, will make a lovely Ophelia. Included in thc cast arc Mr. Parker as Polonlus, Mrs. Eldridge as the Queen, Miss Alex? ander as the Player-Queen, Mr. Ryan as thc Grave Digger, and Mr. O'Neil as the Ghost. The tragedy will be presented with every elaboration or detail. Wc advise our readers to secure their seats early to-day, as there ls sure to be a crowded house. ELECTION OF VKSTRTMEN.-The following gentlemen have been elected to serve as vestry? men at thc Cathedral Chapel: John MoKeegan, Thomas O'Brien, J. F. O'Neill, H. F. Baker, Ber nard O'Neill, M. W. St. Amand, M. P. O'Connor, John Doughertv, and T. C. Ryan. -. THE LICENSE BILL AGAIN.-Thc secret ses? sion of Council on Friday night resulted In a modification or thc License bill, and a special meeting was called on Saturday night In or Jei? to give the bul Its second and third readings. Only five of the Aldermen were In attendance, and no meeting could be held. We understand that many of the obnoxious features of the bill have been mod tiled. Brokers are taxed onl.r $50, and thc general tax on the various branches of their business has been reduced about onc-balf. The tax on liquor dealers has been lowered, and that on lawyers and doctors has been increas? ed to $2? The bill has been much Improved, and ls generally more equitable in Its provisions, but will hardly prove acceptable to the majority of taxpayers. Aldermau Wall, we learn, wilt press an amendment prohibiting persons licensed from making any distinction ou account of race or color, undera heavy penalty. HALF-RATE MESSAGES.-The Western Union Telegraph Company will receive messages at and for all stations on the lines, East of thc Mississippi River and west of thc Province or New Bruns? wick, for transmission during the night, at one half the usual tariff rates; provided, however, that the tolls on any message at half rates shall not be less than twenty cents. Hair rate mes? sages arc required to be written upou hair rate messige blanks, which can bc obtained by appli? cation at the offices of the company. Messages to be transmitted at tlf rates will bc received at any hour during the day between 8 o'clock A. M. and 8 o'clock P. M., at all ?nices vhleh arc open between those hours, and until io o'clock P. M. at stations which receive night Press reports. Thc company receives' messages to be transmitted at halt rates upou thc express condition that it shall not be liable for errors or delays In the transmis? sion or delivery, or for non-delivery, or any mes? sage beyond the amouut received for scuding the same.
