Tnt: LEOPARD BOY MADE TO CHANUK HIS SroTS.-One of the curiosities in thc collection of living wonders at thc Market nail is an Albino, who is curiously mottled. Some CQlored philan? thropist, thinking that Lincoln's ?mancipation proclamation was not as familiar as household woe's to the Leopard youth, had him taken from thc custody of the showmen and charged them with kidnapping him from thc coast of Africa. This was easily disproved by the showmen, and thc spotted boy wai returned to those spots where he held sweet communion with the fat girl and the monkeys. HE-DEDICATION OP TRINITY CHUIJCU.-This place of worship, which has recently been re? paired and modernized, will be solemnly rc-dedt cated tOnlay, thc venerable Bishop George K. .Pierce, or Georgia, Bishop IV.

DECISION OF TUE MAYOR'S COURT-A CAR DRIVER FINED.-The case of Mr. J. II. Stratton, the driver of car No. 7 ou the King street linc, who was arrested by Captain Hendricks for alleged in? terruption or his martial display, was concluded yesterday. A number of witnesses were present, who testified thawtlie horse was on a trot and the car .would have rim Into their ranks. This was denied by the opposition, but as the police were persistent in their assertions to the contrary, thc Mayor decided in their favor, and Mr. Stratton was fined $10. The right or way was conceded by the Legislature to the City Railway but the right cr extortion is pecullarlyjhe province ofCouncil aud the Mayor's Court. STATECSNno RSE M E NT OF RAILROAD BONDS. The Columbia Phoenix says: "Many years ago, the State of South Carolina endorsed the bouds of the South Carolina Raiiroad Company to the amount of ?2,800,000 sterling. Wc learn that the bonds have matured and been all arranged for. The guarantees of the State, being no longer needed, we learn that in accordance with the wishes or the company, the Legislature will re? peal the old act, and thus arrange loathe surren? der and canceling or the old bonds. This action or thc Sonth Carolina Railroad company is most opportune, as it is calculated to enhaucc thc ^rlce of State securities, anil gives evidence of a return toward its good old times of prosperity." t PARTICULARS OF TUA LOSS OP THE SCHOON? ER GEORGE AND MARY, FOR THIS PORT.-The New York Ilerald, or Wednesday, h03 thc following: The schooner George and Mary (new,) 160 tons, of Calais, from New York for Charleston, was to? tally wrecked on Cape Lookout shoals, 8th Instant. All hands were saved and reached New York yes? terday morning. The O. aud M. left New York December 29th, with a cargo or bone dust, and on thc 2d instant encountered a hurricane from S. 3. E., during which lost Jib and split foresail; hove to and reeled mainsail, vessel laboring heavily and shipping large quantities ol water, filling decks and cabin; it continued to blow heavily until the 6th, driving th? vessel 180 miles east or Hatteras. On the 8th had a gale from N.W.; made Cape Lookout light, apparently about fifteen miles off, but owing to a mist or vapor between them and the light, it was actually only seven or eight miles distant; kept the lead going, bur c"uld not touch bottom with twenty fathoms, a*"i before they had any Indications of bel?g near the shoals the'vessel struck. At daylight on the 0th, wind from N. E.. with a very heavy sea, which soon bilged her and she settled into the sand, so that at high water the sea broke over her twenty feet high. The captain and crew were compelled to seek safety in the rigging. At about 10 A. M.. the steamship Champion, captain Lockwood, from Charleston for New York, hove in sight, and alter three hours' work succeeded In rescuing ttiejn from the wreck and brought them to New York. HAMLET.-The second performancVof "Ham? let" drew a large and fashionable audience to the Academy of Music last night. The cast was much stronger than when the tragedy was played last week, and if the hoarseness of Mr. Warner could have been entirely removed, the tout ensemble would have been all that could be desired. Mr. Warner (Hamlet,) played with even more ?pre and thought than when he first made the ac? quaintance or a Charleston audience. His acting was excellent throughout, aud he was warmly and often applauded. Of Miss Eldridge, as "Ophelia," we have already spoken. Last night she carried the au? dience with her, not less by her natural and un? affected acting, than by her sweet looks. One marked feature or thc evening was the "Polonais" or Mr. Parker. The galt, voice and mako-up or the "prating old man" were wantlug in no particular. We doubt if a better "Polonius" has ev er been seen on the Charleston boards. Mr. Fannln played thc unattractive, but im? port a ot part of the King, and added much to the happy balance or the whole. Mr. O'Neil was very impressive as "the Ghost," and the minor characters were well filled. Admirable order was maintained during the ?vening, and the rapt attention ot thc audience .showed their deep interest in the tragedy. When the curtain foll, Mr. Warner was called before the ourtain and bowed his acknowledgments. To-night the grand tragedy or Macbeth, which bas been in preparation foi a week past, will be produced >>ith a po wer fol cast, and aU the famous witch scenes. Miss Preston, who was sent for specially for this occasion, will personate Lady Macbeth. The weird mtreic of Locke will be given by the orchestra, under thc lead of the accom? plished Professor Withers. St i.<AR FROM SORGHUM.- The war gave the I first impetus to thc cultivation of thc Chinese su? gar cane or sorghum, but all the Ingenuity of t hat period railed to solve the problem or trans? forming the 6yrup into sugar. It was known that the syrup was capable of granulation, but Repeated experiments failed to produce this wlshcd-for result, and lt was only recently that the discovery was made. Messrs. Passmore A Wilhelm, or Greenville, are the agents for this State, and their extensive sugar works have been visited by a large number or persons, who have testified to the success of the operation. Dr. Passmore ls at present in this city, and has exhi? bited the precess to a number of visitors at the of? fice or Mr. F. G. Cart, the agent for Charleston. The ne tr process subjects the cane to a treat? ment that removes everything except the saccha? rine matter. This is placed In large vats, where granulation soon sets In, and the syrup ls In a proper condition for the mill. The latter ls con? structed on the simplest principles, and is capa? ble or being worked with any pov jr. The ma? chine on exhibition In this city is worked by hand, the motive power being two Africans, who by turning a crank, revolve a cylinder in which the syrup isponred. A cone rises in the centre of the cylinder, and the syrup being poured upon ! lt while In rapid motion, the centrifugal force j earrles it to the sides or the cylinder, which j are of fine gauze wire, and the atmos* : pherlc pressure forces the syrup through ? the tiny meshes and leaves the sugar coated against the sides. The cylinder makes sixty revolutions to one turn of the crank, and on thc .small machine at Mr. Cart's office fifteen pounds of fine, clearly granulated sugar were made in two minutes. The process was witnessed by a number of persous yesterday, and It ls now a wcU established fact, that sugar can be made from sorghum, and the cultivation of tht3 pro diet ls calculated to add largely to the agri? cultural wealth of our State. SUPREME COURT-*COI.UMBIA, JANUARY 13. Thc court mer. ut 10 A. M. Present-Chief Justice Moses and Associate Justice Willard. The case or William R. Burgess, plaintitl* in error, vs. William R.

Thc Hibernian Hall was well attended last night by visitors to thc distinguished Individuals who are holding levees at that place. Miss Auna Swann and Mons. Joseph, thc giant and giantess, arc Tully worthy of that title, as they tower head and shoulders above common humanity, and make thc beholder painfully conscious of his own littleness. Thc giant ls of French extraction, and is over eight Icet high. Miss Swann, of Nova Sco? tia, i3 about the same heighr, and thc gigantic pair weigh lour hundred pounds each. Thc beau? tiful Circassian, "so-called," is a decided curiosi? ty. The Australian children are perhaps thc great reaturc of the skow, as they are ccrtaiuly unlike auy children ever seen in this section of thc globe, and are remarkable for the slae and shape or their heads. Thc exhibition' is all that lt promise"?, and is certainly to Hie curious fully worth thc price of admission. CRUMBS.-There was a lively demand yester? day for tickets to Manager Ford's benefit on Mon? day night, and a large number of reserved scats have been secured. Thc rooms of the Widows' Home, Rroad street, will bc open to-day from 10 A. M. to 6 P. M., when the rink will be exhibited, and Taney articles ot? tered ror sale. The sweeps are indignant that those not In their sooty line should reap the benefits or the prores 8km, and some poachers on their preserves have been sent to the Workhouse as vagrants. Thc position of naval store inspector Is again thc subject of controversy, but thc Legislature seems willing to lake the ball by thc horns. Interesting Sabbath, school exercises will be held in Zion Presbyterian Church, Calhoun street, to-morrow evening. A valuable library will bc presented to the school, and addresses made by the Rev. J. L. Girardeau and Mr. G owan. The warm weather of thc past few days culmi? nated in a rain at 12 o'clock last night. THE GRAND BBNEPIT to be given by thc citi? zens of Charleston to Manager Ford, on Monday night, promises to be a remarkable success. The fine old comedy "Much Ado About Nothing" will be brought out In carcrul and elaborate style. Thc most acute and learned or the commentators of Shakespeare have agreed in pronouncing this play to tie one of the most perfect creations of his mighty genius. Indeed, lt would be in vain to look for two more highly finished specimens of sprightliness and wit than arc embodied In the characters of Benedick and Bea'.ricc; and then, again, Dogberry, wjiose very name has passed into an aphorism, the type of a class; and Verges, the superannuated echo or the "Jack in oflicc." These characters alone form a collection at once so varied and Inimitable, as to present an en? during rrcshness on thc stage, while they arc the delight and charm of the closet. "Much Ado About Nothing" ls supposed to be one of the later productions of the poet's pen There seems Internal evidence In the finish and discriminative style of the composition, to war? rant this assumption. The gladiatorial display of wit between Benedick and Beatrice, and the epi? grammatic point or thc dialogue throughout, In? dicate a taste refined by actual Intercourse with educated and high-bred society, to which Shakes pear had access only In the zenith of his poetical fame. There is not, perhaps, another of the numerous plays of Shakespeare that affords such a special example of his powers of Interesting an audience by dramatio Incidents and beanty of language, Independent of plot, as ls afforded in this comedy. The chief agents of the story are Hero and Clau? dio, and yet how little we think of these main fea? tures, when compared with the Interest -excited by the war of wit between thc subordinate actors, Benedick and Beatrice, and thc incomparable scenes In which Dogberry is concerned. Even If there were no considerations of pride and gratitude to stimulate thc attendance of our citizens for such a performance, lt would be safe to predict a crowded house. As lt is, wc sic glad to know that quite a large proportion of the scats have already been secured.

PS- A BODY AND MIND DISEASE. Such ls dyspepsia. Thc stomach and thc brain arc too Intimately allied for the one to stifler with? out thc other, so that dyspepsia and despondency arc inseparable. It may bc added, too, that Irri? tation of the stomach is almost invariably accom? panied by Irritation of the temper. The Invigorating and tranquilizing operation of IIOSTETTER'S BITTERS ls most powerfully de? veloped in cases of indigestion. Thc first effect of this agreeable tonic ls comforting and encourag? ing. A mild glow pervades the system, thc chronic uneasiness In the region of the stomach ls lessened, and the nervous restlessness which characterizes the disease ls abated. This Improve? ment is not transient. It ls not succeeded by the return of the old symptoms with superadded force, as ls always the case when unmcdicated stimulants are given for the complaint. Each dose seems to Impart a permanent accession of healthful Invigoration. But this Ls not all. The aperient and nnti-bllious properties or the prepar? ation arc scarcely secondary in Importance to its tonic virtues, ir there is an overtlow ol bile the secretion ls soon brought within proper limits, and if thc biliary organ ls Inert and torpid lt ls tuned and regulated. Thc effect upon the dis? charging organs ls equally salutary, and in cases of constipation thc cathartic action is just suffi? cient to produce thc desired result gradually and without pain. Thc BITTERS also promote healthy evaporation from the surface, which ls particu? larly desirable at this season when sudden spells of raw, unpleasant weather are npt to check the natural perspiration and produce congestlou or thc liver, coughs ami colds.
