Good canvassing agents are ?wanted. CITY OFFAL.-The law prescribing thc places Where city offal should be deposited, and Impos? ing flues tor the violation or it3 provisions, seems to be a dead letter. Wc are informed that at thc ferner of Spring and President streets thc amount of city offal deposited is so great as to bc a nuis? ance to thc entire neighborhood. Hogs, dogs and buzzards claim the pile as their property, and add to the general discomfort of the situation by qnarrelling over thc spoils.

The case was put in the hands of the detectives, and officer Hernandez succeeded in tracing the individual to Summerville, where he arrested him. He was brXSught to thc city by the afternoon train, and has been committed to jail on the charges of lar? ceny and breach of trust. A valuable gold watch and chain, which he had bought with a portion of the money, were all that was recovered of thc amouut stolen. THE UNITED STATES COURT-WHDNBSDAY, FEBRUARY 16-HON. G. S.

CR?MES.-We arc at present having a surfeit of amusements, and next week the list will be In? creased by the celebrated Bell Ringers and La Rue's Minstrels. Yesterday was bright, clear and beautiful, with balmy invigorating air, typical of this climate, but which ls seldom enjoyed lu February. The lists ofhotel arrivals show a steady gain, and the crowds or strangers In the city prospect? ing, phosphatlng and sight-seeing, are a proof that Charleston has not been neglected by the tourists. Thc posters on the boards and fences tire now more variegated, and offer more attractions in bigger letters and fancier cuts than ever before. La Rue's Minstrels and the Berger Swiss Bell Ring? ers command the pictures, and, as these troupes win both perform In the same building next week, there ls some rivalry in their claims for public patronage. Among thc letters held far postage tn the Sa? vannah postofflce were those addressed to thc fallowing persons in this city: Miss Eliza Mc? Kee, Miss Mary L. Cross, Mrs. E. F. Kanapaux and Captain Barney F. Rawley. TUE MAY CONVENTION-CIRCULAR OP THE STATE INSTITUTE.-The following circular letter bas been addressed to the officers and members or tbj^county agricultural societies: CHARLESTON, February 15. At a called meeting or the members or the South Carolina Institute, on the 9th inst., among other proceedings, the fallowing resolution was submitted by Hon. W. D. Porter, and, on due con? sideration, was unanimously adopted: Besotted, That the president ol the South Caro? lina Institute be requested to luvlte delegaticus from the various county agricultural and me -chanlcal and immigration societies throughout the State to assemble in Charleston, on the ilrst Tuesday in May ?text, (3d.) to take Into cousid cratlon'thc questions ot labor and Immigration, and means far farther development or the agri? cultural Interests ol the State.

Authorized credentials from the presiding of? ficer of the respective societies will pass delegates on the South Carolina Railroad far hair the usual fare, as doubtless will be adopted by other Hues or road. The paramount Importance far a broad and united organization, as indicated by the resolu? tion, is self-evident. To induce settlers. Immigration and efficient la? borers to till thc fertile and genial lands of South Carolina, and bring out her various resources or in;: mi fa eui ring and other Industrial pursuits, de? mands co-operative action ot thc people, rrom the mountain region to thc seaboard, and tue in? fluence of ali true men ought to bc enlisted. The metropolis of the State, with the various liti"s or roads and steam aud sail ships at com? mand, with enterprising and willing merchants, aiocd by the parent or all pursuits, agriculture, ami with practical counsel, can form such an as? sociation as will inspire hope for the ru tore and render success obvious. I have the honor to tender my sincere respect for your society. w. M. LAWTON, President South Carolina Institute. MYSTERIOUS MURDER IS SAVANNAH.- Thc Savannah Advertiser reporta the murder in that city of a negro named B?rse; Fields or raul Bry? an, hailing from Purystmrg, S. C. He was cut with a long sharp knife and beat on thc head with some dull weapon. Ills assailants are not known, though a colored witness testified having seen thc deceased running from two white men. THE CATHOLIC FAIR.-Tito pleasant weather caused a full attendance at thc Hibernia* Halt last night. lu the early part of the evening it was impossible to do more than walk slowly around thc tables. This jam was the harvest time for those carrying rattle INts, nnd the continued tin? kle of the bell proved that thc opportunity had not been lost. Everything went went oil' admira? bly, the tables were attractive, but the assem? blage not less so, and the fair has thus far been a decided success. THE OrttR.v LAST NIOIIT.-lt" anything were wanting to confirm thc good impression mtule by the Oates troupe in'their opening burlesque, it was abundantly supplied by thc dainty manner in which Donizetti's "Daughter of thc Regiment" was given last night. It lacked, of course, thc gorgeous mounting and attractive costumes which helped lo render "The Field of thc Clotli of Gold" so splendid a success: but on thc other baud, lu bringing into greater prominence thc merUs of thc company, both as 'dilgers and as actors, the performance was incompara? bly the best In which" wc have yet seen them. Thc opera differed widely in incident as well as in music from that with which wc arc all familiar. Thc marching and countermarching of Josephine at the head of her regimcut, so generaily a stuk mg feature of the piece, was omitted altogether; the spirited air of Void ic snore de mon neve, from Offenbach's "Grande Duchisse,"' was s,ub stltutedThroughout for the somewhat- monotonous refrain of the ratapl?n; and more than one pop? ular medley was Interwoven with the more preten? tious music of the opera; but Mrs. Oates' concep? tion of the sprightly vira wlizre was so striking, original and charming, that these little liberties which had been taken with Donizetti's master? piece were not only readily forgiven by thc au? dience, but seemed, in fact, to give new zest to their enjoyment. Mr. Allen, ?though a trltlc less rough in exterior than we would wish to sec him in that part, made a capital Sergeant Scalade, and Mr. Chattcrson looked, acted and sang the part of Gnil'.ot to perfection. Those who had ad? mired Mrs. Sheldon on the previous evenings hardly recognized her as thc droll and stuffy "tittle Corporal." The effect or thc admirable training of the troupe was evident in the perfect smoothness which marked the whole perform auce. But the decided triumph ortho evening was the trio la the second act, by Mr?. Oates, Mr. Allen and Mr. Chattcrson, during which the prima donna was complimented with a shower or bouquets. The pleasant farce of "A Kiss ir- the Dark" opened the evening's entertainment. Mis,s Hay? den, Mr. Sheldon and Mr. Allen sustained the leading parts. Professor O'Rcardon's wonderful tumbler music, and a dancing lesson ' Mr. Her? nandez and Ml3s DeSoycr-of which the audience would gladly have had more-gave thc usual va? riety which Is so pleasing a feature or the per? formances or this compauy. To-night wc arc to have Brougham's matchless musical extravaganza entitled To-ca-hon-tas, Te Gentle Savage.'* As a combination of melody, wit and comic effect, it ls perhaps thc best and most eutertalalng burlesque in the whole range or the modern drama, and wc may safely pre? dict that the piece will lose nothing or its at? tractiveness lu thc hands or the Oates troupe. ?P ROYAL ARCU CUAPTER.-The following ofli cers were elected to serve for thc ensuing year: Montgomery Moses, of Sumter, M. K. Grand High Priest, C. J. Jaege.-, of Abbeville, Deputy Graud nigh Priest. J. A. Hoyt, of Anderson, Grand King. E. W. Lloyd, of Florence, Grand Scribe. j C. F. Jackson, of Columbia, Grand Treasurer. A. T. Smythe, or Charleston, Grand Secretary. B. Z. Hcrndon, of Cokcsbury, Captain of thc Host. i H. F. Covington, Grand R. A. c. L. P. Meyer, Grand Sentinel. W. S. Bowman, of Charleston, Graud Chaplain. The Grand High Priest, Companion R. S. Bruns, delivered his annual address, ol which we give the closing remarks, rererrlug to the severance or his connccllou with thc Chapter as its presiding officer : And now. Companions, that I approach.thc close or my address, thc more sad and oppressive task lies before mc-that duty willen, whatever thc occasion or thc circumstances, is evermore a mournful one, of parting-of formal separation from rriends and Companions; sundering ties which for long sessions have been as strong as they were sacred. With tlits address, Compan? ions, you hear the last syllables from my lips as your Graud High Priest. I am prepared to place the mitre of authority upon the bron's of another; may h- prove far more worthy to wear it than myseu'.. lani prepared to convey to his grasp the stan* or mine om ce, with the prayer that he may wield it with more grace ami dignity, and provea more patriarchal guardian of his flock than 1 have been. You will easily find, rrom among thc many noble Companions, which sur? round this altar, some one to whom you can, with loving confidence, consign all the badges ol' authority. In parting from you in my official capacity, however. 1 do Hot lose you, "my com? panions, from my affections, nor do 1 escape from the grateful oidig.it ions and sacred ties which bind us together. Whether wc bow before the same altar, or at shrines separate from one another, we shall bow together in the same spirit, willi that union ol' soul ami sympa? thy which needs no absolute bodily contact' to be reit: whose electric transmission will thrill us all at the same moment, however long the line or space which keeps us physically apart. I shall still pray for your prosperity, collectively and in? dividually, as you will pray tor mine. May you prosper as men, lu your several walks of society; may you grow to greatness in this our Grand Chapter, and In thc several Subordinates, which gather beneath the one Grand Arch of our tem? ple. With this, my benediction upon you, I strip myseir or the robes or my priestly office: I sur? render my trust into your hands, and I bid you one and all, companions, a most affectionate aud iratcrnal farewell. THE LAST OF THE STEAMER Two BOYS ACCOUNT OF CAPTAIN Wnrrr..-The Savannah Republican ot the 15th, gives the following ac? count or the rescue or the crew of the steamer Two Boys : Tlie full particulars or the disaster to this steamer, and thc circumstances surruundlng lt up to thc time or her bel?g blown to sea, have beeu already given lo tlie public, bul by thc arrival yesterday or Captain Thomas White, her commander, we have Hie experience or himself and the rest of tlie crew,.and how they rare I until finally rescued by the bark Gem. Captain White, in a letter, says: AHer being driven to sea, we had some hopis that the engineer would be able to get the steam pipes fixed before we got outside or the bar, but his efforts failed." The donkey pump also gave out and left no nieaus to supply thc boiler. It was with a hope or Raving thc boat and cargo that I encouraged all hands to stand by her lu the time ol need. At 3:30 P. M.. wc were outside ol the bar. Seeing no sail In sight or other hope ol relier at five, we commenced throwing our cargo overboard in onler to save ourselves, and, if possible, the boat. At this time lt was blowing half a gale and there was a heavy sea on. We had no pumps in working order, and had to commence bailing with buckets to keep her free. The wind and sea increasing all night, we remained in this condition irlitli 5 A. 31., when thc wind lulled a Utile and hope began to dawn. At eight A.M., tlie wind increased, and the sea was breaking over us rast. Hair an hour after this, we espied a sail to the south ami eastward of us, dislaut about twelve miles, which proved to bc tue bark Gem, bound to Doboy. At 10:30 she ran down un? der our lee and we asked assistance, which was Immediately rendered. At 1:30 thc last boat left thc steamer with the men. At 2:30 the Two Bovs went down-in our presence in tortv fathoms bf water, [n latitude 31 degrees and 40'minutes. lon? gitude 79.30-about forty miles from shor.e. The steamer Nanscmoutl spoke us Sunday morning about ten miles io thc northward and eastward or Doboy, and wc were transferred to her, reaching Savunuah February 15th.

The little mongoose wheu bitten by a deadly ser peut resorts to a certain plant, cats or it, and es? capes thc effect of thc poison. That ls Instinct. Human beings, on thc other hand, must depend on reason and experience in selecting the means of protecting health and lire against unwhole? some Influences. Now, what docs reson say on this vital subject? Docs lt not tells us that to In? vigorate and purify the system is the best way to protect lt against thc Invisible poison which gcucratcs disease? Surely lt does. Thc next question ls, what guide shall we follow In choos? ing a medicinal safeguard ? Reason replies, let your monitor be experience. Well, the experi? ence of eighteen years comprised lu one unbroken series of satisfactory testimonials assures us that IIOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS pososses strengthening, regulating and antiseptic proper lies which are not combined In the same happy proportions in any other preparation extant. Tills, therefore, ls thc antidote to which reason bids us resort when our health Is Imperilled either by thc malaria which produces epidemic disorders, or by any other cause, whether Inhe? rent and constitutional, or connected with our habits, occupations and pursuits. Thc vcuoin of noxious reptiles is scarcely more subtle and dangerous than that which lurks In foul alrand Impure water.
