The Ara? gon will carry a large cu it ou cargo ou a light draft.^nd os soon as her inward freight ls dis? charged, will be placed on the berth for Liverpool by her consignees. TUE SniPPrNG IXTBKKST_Thc Philadelphia Ledger says: '-The question of 'half pilotage,' about the legality of collecting which a dul&enoe of opinion exists between the pilots of thc Dela? ware river and thc masters of coasting vessels, is about to be tested in the courts. Hair pilotage is ? charged when a vessel coming into this port de? clines to take a pilot when haded from tiie pilot boats at the Capes or the Delaware, and its pro eeeds arc devoted to the use or the society ror dc oayed pilots. Its payment ls disputed, on thc groar. ' that it ls au unconstitutional tax on com? merce, and that lt ts a payment for which the pilots render no service. "Philadelphia vessels trading to Charleston have been charged with various lees and taxes by tue city authorities there, which are believed to be il? legal, and test cases have been brought in the courts of South Carolina to decide them. The question or harbor rees ls Involved in one case and pilotage In another, and decisions are expected that wUl set both points at rest. The question of demurrage, also, or interest to shipping, has produced litigation at various points la which Philadelphia vessels are Involved. At Washington, where a vessel was detained three days and a bair beyond the 'lay days' specitled lo the bill of lading for unloading a cargo or coal, payment of demur? rage in accordance with the terms specified hy? the bill of lading for the time of detention, was refused, and this case ls now berore the courts or thc District or Columbia. A similar case is also pending in Rhode Island." . QUEER PROCEEDINGS OP TUE PoLun7-43nu rAL TREATMENT OK A PKISONKK.-Yesterday even? ing the attention or persons in the Mills House lobby was attracted by shouts of "help" proceed? ing from a while mau who was being taken to the Guardhouse by three negro policeracu. The man was resisting the .?tree policemen, who were dragging him over thc pavement in a brutal raan , ner. The party from the Mills House came for ? ward and remonstrated with the policemen, and ^requested them to usc less force, and to conduct .'the prisoner io thc station-house in a decent mau Lner. They asserted that they knew their busi? ness best, and the mun, who was huh" crazed by the treatment he received, would listen to no rea? son. No attempt at rescue was made by thc ?party, nor were the policemen interfered with in any way except by remonstrance; yet three . gentlemen were arrested on arriving at the Guard- ? j 'house, and charged with interfering with the po- ( Jiceln the discharge ot their duty. Several persons j present proffered their testimony to disprove j j this charge, but it was not received. Ten dollars | ] security was required from cac!; or the prisoners, and their names, weight and height entered on the books. One or thc party was an cx-Onited States Colonel, another hailed from neston, and thc ' third was rrom this State. The prUouer whose brutal treatment caused the remonstrance and subsequent arrest or tho party, was charged with disturbing a colored congregation in Wentworth .street. The noise from this congregation, hythe way, can bc often heard two squares. The pri? soner whs a German, who co dd not understand his colored captors, ami disliked the manner with j I -which the$ enforced their aa.hority. i TUE PHOSPHATE OUTRAGE. A Letter to Corbin.: To ?ion. D. T. Corbin, state Senator, United Slates District Attorney, City Attorney, Codi? fia of <-he Lairs, tic, i?&, iCc., i?a, (tc., <f.o. : SIB-lu a speech which the papers attribute la you, as delivered ia the Senate on the 22d Decem? ber ult., on the Phosphate bill, you are said to have argued that by means of thc monopoly you advocated: ..Instead of four or live ?nen stealing thc phos? phates belonging to the State, there would bc live or six hundred men gening honest wage?. * * * * ***** "These people who have been stealing phosphates may howl and growl, but lhere ls no answer to the argument that the st atc owns the phosphates, and that it is tho duty of the State to develop them ia the best possible manner. * ? ? * * ..Seeing so much feeling exhibited, I looked for some argument and sense, but 1 will declare on my honor as a senator and a gentleman, that I saw in , a sensible reason given, and when you trace t ie opposition to its source, you will lind it comes from gentlemen stealing phosphates by tue wholesale. * ****** * "These men have been down in the Coosaw River, and have moved about ten thousand tons during ibo last year." And you even went so Tar as to Individualize. Although an old citizen of thc State, I could not pretend to the knowledge of the facts that you should have had, when you made the assertion above alluded to, and tlierefore have been at some pains to Inform myself on the subject. Thc statement so far us the person named and his associates arc concerned, ls utterly unfound? ed in fact; not oue poiiud of rock has been taken from Coosaw River by them, lt ls true that some of these parties your statement has slandered, and rho have put capital into phosphate enter? prises, (whilst those In whose behalf you spoke would not advance or lend a dollar to develop the phosphate interest in the State,) have purchased and leased lands a; or Bear Coosaw River, from the creeks and bayous of which, being their own property, they bave dug a few thousand tons of phosphates. So far as my knowledge goes, no phosphate? have been takeu from any location to which the State can lay auy claim, except by per? haps a few poor fishermen, against whose bum? ble Industry you indulge your sneers au? satire. Notwithstanding your statement of the law, lt ls held, as I am informed by lawyers whose attain? ments are equal to those of any that arc instruct? ed la the institutes of Vermont or elsewhere in Sew England, that ?i, rijfcl to talc* these phos? phates iu the rivers of the State ls Inherent, and to be enjoyed in common by all thc citlxcns of thc State. The disinterestedness of some gentlemen of the North, who come down to enlighten the poor bar? barians of the South, reminds me of an Incident I have seen somewhere ia Eugllsh history. When the lirst George came over from Hanover to rule the English people, and rode lu lils coach through the streets, he looked out of thc window upon the populace, some or whom received him with cheers and others with hisses, and cried, "I comet tor your goou," "and for our chattels, too," retorted a wag in the crowd. This seems to be the spirit which animates some of you who have leftyoar native climes,where neither your talents nor your characters were justly ap? preciated, to reform and enlighten a benighted and barbareas people. Whatever may have been the barbarism or the people or this State, they have never buen accustomed to hear those who pretend to respectability accuse each other on common occasions of the vilest crimes, uor have they ever heard before a senator, on his honor as a senator and a gentleman, charge "gentlemen" with the foul offence or "stealing." That a gen? tleman should charge a gentleman with theft, was unknown to us until now. This may be a fresh social nomenclature introduced by our new tu? tors, or lt may be the result of a difference of edu? cation, er or the familiar and intimate association with the ignerant and the vicious; but in the midst ef the barbarism which preceded the pre? sent progress or this State, the history or its Legis? lative Assembly will present ao example or like parliamentary dialectics. Monopolies are the absorption or general advan? tages by one person or class or pcrsous to the ex? clusion or others. They are repugnant to free trade and common right; are the creatures or favoritism, and have led and will lead te nepot? ism and oppression. They arc generally thc off? spring of usurped and ill-gotten power, and are usually the representatives of the licentious ava? riciousness of greedy politicians. You, Mr. Seuator, openly advocate a monopoly. Professing Republicanism, you take from the many to enrich the few. You deny to thc indus? try and energy of all what you lavish in oblations to the wealth of a morned oligarchy. You cry liberty aud equality for your new friend, the col ered man, yet you ridicule his "cauoe" and his "scow." You deny bim thc result or bis toll and the labor of his own arin, whilst you laud with sycophantic praise thc "power or never-tiring steam," and having ab? sorbed power in your own hands, you are Jealous that none share it with yoe but those who enjoy the sunshine or your ru vor. But even In the race o? all this, you are consis? tent. lt was at least to be expected that bc who, In his disinterested effort to make a new government in his missionary advent uiitoug bar? barians, had absorbed political and legal honors, and the lucrati'-" emoluments incident to both, would be ready to advocate thc dunns or others to exclusive advantages, which would not cou aiot with his own aggrandizement. Bishop Bur? nett said the Duchess or Cleveland was tuc greediest woman in all England; but ir he lived at this day and read thc address to this article, and your speech in the Senate, he would rall short or his reputation Tor saarpslghtedncss and satire, H he could not put his Huger in this county on the greediest maa in South Carolina. FIIEK TRADE. DBAT LICENSES, ic-Thc Ci I y Treasurer gives notico m another column that he is now prepared to Issue licenses for carts, drays Ac, for the year 1870. THI ACADEMT o? Mostc-Thc popularity of the Shakespearian drama In Charleston was again made evideut on Saturday night, when thc Academy of Music was more deusely crowded than on the occasion when it was first thrown open to thc public. It was, beyond all compari? son, the fullest house or thc season. Mr. Warner (Richard III) was still suffering from severe hoarseness, and was forced to hus? band his great resources. This did not Interfere with his successful'dellvery ef thc earlier passages lu thc tragedy, and thc wooing or "Lady Anne" (Miss Alexander) was played with ?ne judgment and sound discretion. The scene ls a difficult oue, but Mr. Warner was In every way equal to the demand upon him, and gave the audience a lire Ute portraiture of one or the darkest phases or thc character or him who-Shakespeare to thc contrary notwithstanding-was the Hist soldier and statesman of his day. As th*! play proceed ed, the hoarseness of Mt. Warner became more embarrassing, and h? directed Ins attendant to be on the side of thc stage with a draught of cough mixture. Thc attendant brought the mixture, but poured out, by niMukr, a wiuc-glassor Btrong vinegar, kept in the draw? ing-room as a gargle. This thc tragedian hastily swallowed, and, although thc potion Infeuslticd his ictiug, for a minute or more lt entirely deprived aim or speech. He soon recovered and resumed als part. Yesterday, Mr. Warner underwent a :ourse or medical treatment Tor his hoarseness, ind last evening he was so much improved as to jive promise that he would bf to-night have re? gained his powers. Miss Eldridge (Queen Margaret! played remark ibly well, entering thoroughly Into thc spirit or lerpart. Miss Lyle (Prince Edward) uci"d with ixcellent taste, and we arc encouraged *o hope mat sac will rise steadily iu her profession. 'Richmond" was entrusted to Mr. O'Neil, whose :?rrormauce was, as usual, highly meritorious. To-night we have "Othello," with Mr. Neil War. aeras "the jealous Moor." This i3 a parr. In ivlilch Mr. Warner has wea a high meed of praise. "Iago" will bc played by Mr. Joseph T. tannin, of the Holliday street Theatre, Ballimore. Mr. Fan iln has been tineen years on the stage, and is an ictoror established reputation. Ve doubt not, I iherefore, that the performance to-night will be a I memorable one. L NBOROES AT TOB ACADBMT OP MUSIC-AR? REST OF MANAOBK FORD-THU MATTER TO BE TESTED IN THK COURTS.-About noon on Saturday last Mr. John T. Ford, thc lessee of thc Academy of Music, was arrested in that building during re? hearsal, upou a warrant Issued by Magistrate T. J. Mackey. Thc writ was based on thc affidavit of a negro man, stating that on the previous evening, January 7th, he had visited the Academy under Mr. Ford's management., applied and of? fered money for a ticket of admission to thc or? chestra or dress clrelc of thc building, to witness thc performances, and was refused by Mr. Ford's orders, itt violation of the laws of South Carolina, made in pursuance of t he acts of Congress forbid? ding any distinction on account of race, color or previous condilion. Thc officer informed Mr. Ford that if he would proceed to Magistrate Mackey's office, No. 20 Broad st reet, he (the officer) would follow lu thc rear. This suggestion was complied with, and the seat of justice reached. The magistrale was surrounded by a large crowd of colored people, evidently walting for the trial. Thc warrant and affidavit was read to Mr. Ford, and he at once waived an examination, and stated his readiness to enter Into bond3 and appear before the Court of General Sessions, and expressed his desire to test the law speedily and thoroughly. The bonds were given by Mr. Ford personally, and Messrs. John Chadwick and John IL Devereux, in thc sum of live hundred dollars each. Another warrant was then served, upon the affidavit of a negro named Chutasen, declaring that he had presented a ticket and was refused admission by the door? keeper. The examination was waived in this case also, and like bonds were executed. The magistrate, In an explanatory way, re? marked that thc colored people of Charleston em? braced many persons of intelligence, retluement and character, who did not desire to intrude among the whites, but insisted upon precisely thc same accommodation in thc same part of the Academy. Others of the race expressed their reluctance, lu discussing the case, to associate with thc poor? er darkles (black trash) who might visit the Fami? ly Circle, but wished that black as well as white "aristocracy" should be provided for. Several really respectable colored persons, dur? ing the day, disavowed all sympathy fora move? ment denounced by them a; a political trick, and avowed their willingness to sit in the places pro? vided for their own race when they visited the Academy. It ls stated that the case will be heard by Judge Carpenter al An carly day in Chambers, and that no attempts to test the right of admittance will bc made pending thc suit. TnE STEAMER ANNA.-Tho caso of thc. Uni? ted States vs. thc steamer Anna received a pre? liminary hearing In the United States Coo rt on Satnrdty-Messrs. SI mont?n A Barker appearing for the Anna, and Messrs. Porter A Conner for thc Spanish Goverument. A motion to have the ves? sel released from custody was matte, but not argued, though notice was given that on Monday, when a hearing ls assigned to thc case, a motion will be made that thc warrant of arrest be vaca? ted. A motion will also be made that the Spanish Government bc required to indemnify th crew and passengers for all losses accruing from the detention. HERALD, WORLD, TIMES AND TRIBUNE 6c. each-Oc. each. IIASELL STREET BAZAAR. FIREMAN'S CELEBRATION-BiXTT-urNTn ANNI? VERSARY OP ran PIONEER STBAM FIRS COM? PANY.-The Pioneer Steam Fire Company, tho 1 oldest organization In the Fire Department, cele? brated their 6lxty-nlnth anniversary on Saturday night. The Market Hall had been prepared for the occasion under the supervision of Tully, and the lang tables that filled the room almost groan? ed uuder the weight of the luxuries with which they were oovered. The firemen, and a large number of invited guests, lined the boards, and willing hands moved to the musical clatter of knives and forks. After the first sortie, when thc vigorous attack had Bleared thc tables of the substantials, thc seductive punch bowls were as? signed a place ia the picture. Thc following regular toasls were announced and responded to by those present: 1. South Carolina; 2. Tho City of Charleston; 3. The Fire Department; 4. Our Guests; 5. Our Honorary Members; 6. The Press; 7. Woman. A number of volunteer toasts were then offered, among which the following, given by vice-Presi? dent Wm. Knox, deserves particular notice, as lt was especially applicable to Bremen, and con? tains as much good advice as a small catechism: The. Charleston Fireman-May sttam ever be au emblem of his untiring energy and self-sacri? ficing devotlou; his hank, that he will pull down the burning walls of Jealousy when they exist; his fadder, that he will aspire to noble deeds Hint he may ride upon thc truck of rame; his axe, thai bc will always cut deep Into the roots or the tree or dissension; his drags, that he will wllh his brother firemen pull together in honest emulation; bis bruk** represent willing bands; his spumier, best emblem or tbc liremau, may he always bc coupled with lils brethren lu a bond ot friendship and girdled with the belt ot good-will towards all, so thai- when Hie last s?nrkot existence nickers and glim death through kis trumpet orders him to take up his suction rrom the well or life and rmi np his hose for eternity, may his spirit return to that celestial emjiiu- house, not made witli ham ls, eternal In ihc heavens. Bung,sentiment, witticisms, stories, and asa i perabuudancc orrun enlivened the evening, uniil the hands of time marked the birth of a new day. As nrcincn arc scrupulously religious, the fcs.ivi I iles were not allowed to encroach on Hie Sabbath, aud thc merry company separated at midnight; btu thc occasion will long be remembered as one of thc most pleasant of its kind. At the anniversary meeting or thc company held previous to thc supper, the officers were elected for the ensuing year. Mr. T. S. O'Brien, who had tilled thc position of president Tor several years, declined re-election, and Augustine T. Smythe, Esq., received thc unanimous vote ol thc company. Mr. Smythe has a Tull knowledge or a ?roman's duties, from his connection with the Pheonix company, and will make an excellent president. The following ls thc list of officers elected : A. T.

Aa thc period Is rapidly approaching when Planters In our low country must decide upon what crop they will cultivate thc coming season, and notwithstanding the continued disaster to cotton crops from the caterpillar, many arc still inclined to continue the cultivation of cotton ?mc even the sea Island-while others arc deter? mined to substitute short cotton, honing from the earlier maturing of the latte, crop that they may escape destruction from thc caterpillar. Should thc coming season, In Its earlier period, prove as unfavorable for thc development or thc caterpil? lar as the past, their hope of success may bc re? alized; but it may prove tbat the coming season may, in its earlier period, bc wet, and very favor? able to the propagation or thc caterpillar, so that their ravages may be just so much earlier as to destroy the advantages obtained the past season, Tor the difference of time In maturing of the two crops. At any rate, there ls no doubt that the cultivation of cither long or short cotton on the seaboard Is attended with great risk. With these views, may it not be well for Planters to look into some of the facts (ind claims of SORGHUM as a crop? This crop can be planted early In Mnroh, and requires probably thc smallest amount of la? bor to mature it of any crop known, much less than corn, and being BO hardy a plant, that lt can endure without material Injury both drought and wet. If planted lu March it will be ready for cut? ting and working Into Sogar and Syrup in July, and thus in the middle or the year will enable him to get a return for his labor. This is a matter of great consideration, especially when Sorghum is cultivated In connection with other crops, as it would furnish him with means to work up his later-maturing crops. From the disturbed politi? cal condition or Cuba, and the injury and destruc? tion or . the sugar crops as a result, there ls no doubt that our supply orsngnrand molasses rrom that source will be very much curtailed. Should this be so, the price or these articles must greatly advance. ' As to the yield per a;re, this will depend upon the quality of lands. Land capable of producing without manure ten to twelve bushels of Corn per acre, will give from seventy-five to eighty gallons per acre of I'eflncd Syrup, and If desired, yield? ing rrom five to six pounds of Sugar, with a resi? due of Syrup per gallon. That capable of pro? ducing twenty to thirty bushels of Corn, will yield one hundred and twenty-five to one hundred and fifty gallons of Syrup. Thc use or sulphate er lime, gypsum, as a manure, at the rate or two hundred and fifty pounds per acre, from experi? ence, will almost double thc product, giving at the sam? time a yield of from twenty to forty bushels of Seed and a large quantity of excellent Fodder-the Seed as a grain being almost equal m value to Corn as a feed for Horses, Cattle, Ao. and when ground up as Flonr, superior to Buck? wheat. Any further information on this subject can bc obtained by applying to Mr. FRANCIS G.CART, who has been appointed our Agent, aud will bc pre? pared to furnish thc pure Imphec Seed and ma? chinery.

Among the hundreds of testimonials we have from practical Planters and Farmers, we would can attention to the following extract rrom a let? ter received rrom Colonel B. G. LOCK BIT, or the large planting firm of Jordan A Locket!, dated Albany, Ga., November 27, I860: "Berore closing this letter, I cannot retrain from expressing my sincere thanks to you ror the lu veutlon ol the BEST PLOUGH NOW IN CSE. It ls thc delight or the negro. Besides doing the best work thar. I have ever seen any Plough do, lt runs with more ease to thc ploughman, and the draft to the animal ls lighter than any Plough I have ever used. "Your Plough has already become a necessity to mc, and I would feel mined without lt. I am satisfied wo have saved, annnually, thousands or dollars in mules alone, lt ls the Cheapest Plough I have ever used, of any kind or description, aud I am anxious to bring, ir I can, to the notice of my rellow-planters, this most valuable Plough.''
