DESAUSSURE EULOOISTIO REMARKS FROM MEMBERS OF TUE ?HAKLSCTON BAK.-When the State Court was convened yesterday morning, Colonel John Phil? ips arose and said: The intelligence has already been conveyed to us ot the death oran eminent member or thc bar or this State-the Hon. William F. DeSaussure. He was the oldest member ot the bar or South Carolina. He was a gentleman far advanced in years, and the whole coarse or his lifo has been that of a very dlstlngulsed and eminent counsel? lor. He was not only an able lawyer, but an emi? nent legislator. He occupied a high position In the Seaate or the United States, and was greatly respected in the Legislature or his own State. He Jived without giving offence, and died, I trust, In peace with his God and in perfect charity with all mankind. Believing it to be in consonance with the feelings or the bar, I now move an ad? journment or the court, in respect to the memory or this distinguish- d deceased. Mr. Richard Yeadon followed Colonel Phillips, -and said: If^onr Honor please. I ask the privilege or sec? onding the motion -which has Just been made by Colonel Phillips. I was well acquainted with Mr. DeSaussure. Many years sluee lt was my pleas? ure to serve with him in the Legislature. I en? dorse folly all my colleague has said In respect to Mn '. minpnrc. his virtues and his exemplary and ?inoffensive Ufe. He was the son or thc late Chan? cellor IA.-m unsure, one or the most eminent jurists that ever occupied a position on the bfnch or South Carolina, and brother or the late Henry A. DeSaussure, whose decease we were called to mourn but two or three years since, and which was marked at that time by a proper tribute or respeot by the bench and bar or this cltv. Mr. DeSanssure was an eminent lawyer, and' one of the moat distinguished in the land. While he was most devoted to his profession, he Ailed many other positions of usefulness. He WUB a devoted -trustee or the CoUege or South Carolina, and offi? ciated as chairman of the executive committee or that noa rd. He had the honor of occupying a seat in the Senate or the United States, by ap? pointment or the Executive, to anthe unexpired term or a deceased senator. A man of his emi? nent character, learning and virtues Is one whom lt ts our delight to honor, and whose death wc can .but lament. I cordially second the motion. General James Simons said: I should not do justice to my own reclines if your Honor pleases, ir I did not, on this occasion ?express my concurrence In the remarks which have just rallen rrom my brethren in respect to the pending motion. At another time I will, in the discharge of my duty, speak more at length than 1 can on this, In reference to Mr. DeSaus? sure. My own relations with him from my in? fancy have been such as to enable me to justify all that lias been said by the gentlemen who have proceded me. and especially in respect to his trusteeship or the college. A lifo-ilme or acquaint? ance, a service or twenty years with him in that board, and an association with him In the Legis? lature, authorizes me to confirm all that has been said of Mr. DeSaussure's merits. 1 trust the mo? tion will be granted. The motion was granted, and an order of ad? journment was directed to be entered open the min?tes. AMUSEMENTS. The Italian Opera-Martha. Tho sale of scats for thc season of Italian Opera will begin this morning at the box office of the Academy. The scale of prices, it will be noticed, Is quite moderate, considering the character of thc entertainment; and we are re? quested to state shat in no instance will any scat be secured until it is paid for. The first performance will he Flotow's charming opera of "Martha." The Savannah Advertiser speaking of the prima donna in this part, says: .'Miss Mcculloch'* Martha pleased us better, ap? pealed to our sympathies more deeply, than the bird-like trills or rat H. Her voice, a pnrc so? prano, of marvellous strength and with a warmth 1 ingering In Its tones that reaches the soul, .vas far more pleasant to our perhaps unsophisticated car than all the rlpplings and quavers of the pri? ma donna who has just left us. Miss Mcculloch has not the highest charms orstage presence, but she possesses the power that irresitibly fascinates, and delights even thc uncultivated mind. Uer "Last Rose of Summer" was rapturously encor? ed, and In every bar or the delicious music there was not a note with which we could conscien? tiously And rault." Wyman. Thc performance of this wonderful ventriloquist and magician was well attended last night, as lt fully deserved to be. Those of our readers who have not visited these performances will have only three more opportunities to witness an ex? cellent exhibition, and at thc same time stand a chance ol securing a prize. The theatre ts now closed, and there can bc no better way or spend? ing an evening than in attending these seances. SA VA NN A a AND Cit A E LESION RAILROAD. Meeting of thc Stockholders-Report of the President-Election of Olfieers, &c. The regular annual meeting cf Uie Savan? nah and Charleston Railroad Company was held at 12 M. yesterday, in the ball ot the Planters' and Mechanics' Bank. On motion or President Alexander Isaacs, Hon. Henry Buist was called to the chair. Mr. Fisher, secretary or the company, was re quested to act as secretary of the meeting. It being ascertained that six thousand seven hundred and three shares of stock were represent? ed, more than enough to constitute a quorum, the chairman announced that the meeting was ready to proceed to business. Pre?Kent isaacs then read his annual report, the third annual report or the company. THU REPORT is too I engthy for publication, and therefore we present thc following synopsis. ItreclteBthat the operations for the last year are: Receipts from freight, passengers, Ac, $51,83413; operat? ing expenses, $46,776 56; excess or earnings, $?, 857 57. During a greater part or the year the cars were only running as rar as Coosawhatchle, and to Grahamville only thc last two months of the year. The road now, excepting In some minor particulars, is completed, and there ls daily com? munication between the Cities or Charleston and Savannah, and makes complete the coast line rrom Malee to thc Gulf or Mexico. The connec? tion between our city and Savannah opens a wide field for the enterprise or our merchants, and the prospects or the road arc very encouraging, both In regard to travel and freight. Arter reciting the {advantages te Charleston from the completion of tb? road, in attracting thither the trade (she formerly possessed) rrom Florida, Southern and Southwestern Georgia, and Southern Alabama, thc president suggests that the Sarannah and Charleston Railroad be connected with the Atlantic and Gulf Railroad depot In Savannah, which can be accomplished by con? structing a track five m..cs long; also, that a railroad bridge be built across the Ashley, rrom the term Inns or the road across this river, to the foot of Calhoun street; that then a track belaid through Calhoun and Washington streets to the depot of the Northeastern Railroad. The bridge could be a separate corporation. This plan har' been adopted lu bridging the Cape Fear River, at Wilmington, with gratifying results. I have been informed by capitalists that the bonds of such a company could be negotiated upon very favora? ble terms. The report concludes with a brief notice of the failure of the contractors to complete the road at the time agreed upon, compliments the zeal and efficiency of the employees, and states that there ls everything to show that the roaa is now enter? ing upon a career of prosperity which must, in a few years, make it one or thc best and most re? munerative roads in the South. Oa motion of Hon. J. H.? Campbell, the report was laid on the table until the other reports could be read. Mr. C. S. Gadsden, engineer and superintend? ent of the road, read lils annual report, showing the o; crations la reconstructing the road, and expressing thc opinion that lt wonld now com? pare favorably with other railroads ta thc country. The treasurer's report was then read by Mr. Fisher, after which, on motion or Hon. J. B. Campbell, all or the reports were accepted, and ordered to be printed. " On motion or Mr. DeLeon, the suggestions In the reports or the president and superintendent were referred to the board of directors, with power to act If deemed advisable. Mr. Marshall moved that thc thanks or thc stockholders bc tendered to the president, engi? neer and superintendent, board or directors, and secretary and treasurer, for the able manner In which they had discharged their duties during the past year. Mr. DeLeon seconded the motion, and in so do? ing paid a high compliment to the efficiency of thc officers named, and especially to Presideut Isaacs, expressing the oplniou that lt was In a great measure due to him that the road was com? pleted. The motion was unanimously adopted. Hon. J. B. Campbell stated that for a long time, one or the directors, Mr. Boylston, had per? formed the duties of president without compen? sation, and he would recommend that the board of directors tender to Mr. B. a suitable testimoni? al as a mark or appreciation or the stockholders or the company for his services. Mr. Marshall made a motion to that effect, which was unanimously adopted. President Isaacs offered a resolution providing that hereafter the annual meeting bc held on the first Wednesday in February, Instead of on the first Monday In January as heretofore. Adopted. On motion or President Isaacs, a vote of thanks was tendered thc president and directors of the Planters' and Mechanics' Bank for the use or the ball. On motion of Mr. DeLeon, an election for six directors was proceeded with, and Messrs. Mar? shall, Lengnick and Kaufman were appointed conductors or tile election. Messrs. Alexander Isaacs, J. R. Boylston, James H. Taylor, W. S. Hastie, James B. Campbell and David Jennings were elected, each one having received 005 votes. On motion of Mr. Marshall, a vote or thanks was tendered to Hon. Henry Buist, for the cour? tesy and Impartiality with which he had pre? sided. On motton or Mr. J. H. Taylor, thc meeting ad? journed. At a subsequent meeting or the board or direct? ors, Mr. Alexander Isaacs was unanimously re-elected president or the company. CRUKBS.-Messrs. Boinest & Martin have, by authority of thc Postmaster, placed a letter box at their store on King, opposite Ann street. This will prove a great convenience to the residents of that section or the city. On and alter the 20th or this month the hours ofrlnglng theSt. Michael's Dell will be changed rrom 7 P. M. to S P. M. for thc first bell, and from 9 P. M. to 10 P. M. for the last bell. Fire trips have been made Iront here to Savan? nah slnca the reconstruction of the Charleston and Savannah Railroad, and two hundred and thirty-eight through passengers were carried over the road. At a Radical caucus Tuesday night. In Colum. bia, John Alexander, Esq., received the nomina? tion for mayor. There were three other aspirants. Several other nominations were made for alder? men ia the different wards. ST. PATRICK'S DAT. Legends of the Saint-The Shamrock How thc Festival iras Chosen-The Celebration In Charleston. This day, moro familiarly known as "St. Patrick's Day in the Morning," will be duly cele? brated by thc generous, warm-hearted. Impulsive Irish people. Many have but little reverence for the memory of the patron salut, from the fact that thc seventeenth of March generally brings disagreeable weather; but grumblers arc found everywhere, and the true Irishman with the shamrock In his hat, and a grateful heart, will pay due homage to the memory of St. Patrick despite bad weather or any other every-day occurrence. Hie birth place as well as the burial-place of thc saint have been disputed; but while England, Wales, Scotland, and Prance claim thc former honor, general evidence Indi? cates that he was burled atDownpatrlck, Ireland, in the province or Ulster, on the coast or the Irish Sea. He was born about the year 372, carried oft" hy pirates, and sold into slavery In Ireland, and employed for awhile as a swineherd on the well known mountain or Slcamish, In thc County or Antrim. Here, during a captivity or seven years, he ac? quired a knowledge or thc Irish language, omi cated himself, and became thoroughly acquainted with the manners, habits and customs or the peo? ple. Escaping to thc continent, he was succes? sively ordained deacon, priest and bishop, and re? turned to Ireland and preached thc Gospel to Its heathen Inhabitants. He was undoubtedly a man or benevolent disposition, as thc popular legends or his driving the venomous reptllos out or Ireland, rounding churches, abbeys, ic, and promoting strict habits or temperance among?is people, wonld seem to indicate; and it ls said that the footsteps or St. Patrick can be traced, almost rrom his cradle to his grave, by the names or places named after him. The shamrock, "the plant that blooms forever," which is almost universally worn In the hat on this day, bears three leaves upon one stem, and was used by St. Patrick as a symbol or Illustra? tion of tne Trinity when preaching to the pagan Irish; and it is a curious coincidence that thc tro-" foil In Arabia ls called thamrakh, and was held eacrcd in Iran as emblematical ol the Persian Triads. Pliny, In his Natural History, says that serpents are never seen upon trefoil, and lt pre? vails against lae sting or snakes and scorpions; and rrom this we may Infor that thc Irish, In hear? ing of the Trinity for the Urst time, fancied they saw some peculiar fitness in their already sacred plant to shadow forth the newly-revealed and mysterious doctrine. Among the distinguished fain Hies or the Scott? ish aristocracy, os well as among the people or Ireland, Patrick has been a ravorlte namo down to the present day, and America, too, has had a Patrick, whose burning eloquence contributed in a great measure to banish rrom our soil the an oestors or those who are to day endeavoring to crush Ireland and the sons or St. Patrick, and who taught George III to profit by the example of a Caisar and Charles I. The following humorous verses, from the pen of o popular Irish novelist, explain how the dlf ferences as to the birthday or Ireland's patron saint were finally adjusted: .Twas on the alghth day or March, as some peo? ple say. Betwixt midnight and morn, Patrick first saw the day; While some would contend on the ninth he was born, ?And lt was all a mistake betwixt midnight and morn. Some fought for thc alghth, for the ninth some would die. And who wouldn't see right got a shocking black eye. At length the contlntlon so positive grew, That actt kept a birthday. And St. Patrick had two, Till Father McCauley, who showed tblm U<?lr sins, Said, "No man can have two birthdays 'ccpt he be twins; Don't always be fightln' for alght or for nine Don't bc always dlvldln', but sometimes klmb'ne. Klmblne alght wld nine, SEVENTEEN '3 thc mark ' Let that be his birthday !" "Amen," says the clark. So they all got blind drank, which complated their oltss, And they've kept up the practice rrom that day to this. The Hibernian Society will celebrate tho day, and Its sixty ninth anniversary, by a dinner at the Hibernian Hall at S o'clock. Thc society will assemble at 12 o'clock, for the election or oOlccrs for the ensuing year, and the transaction or other business. The members or the St. Patrick's Benevolent Society, which was organized fifty-four years ago, will a> semble at Masonic Hall at 8 o'clock A.M., and from thence march In procession, accompa? nied by Muller's brass* band, to St. Patrick's Church, to attend divine service, at half-post 10 o'clock. An oration appropriate to the day will be delivered by the Rev. Dr. Moore, and a col? lection for the benefit or thc orphans In charge or the Sisters or Our Lady or Mercy will bc taken up. Thc society will then march through the princi? pal streets to their hall, where- a collation will bc provided hy thc committee or arrangements. The members will reassemble at half-past 3 o'clock P. M. for the election or oftlccrs and other busi? ness. At 7 o'clock a supper will be spread at the Masonic Hall. Hotel Arrivals- March IO. CHARLESTON HOTEL. J. J. Coben Augusta; F. E.

Are you aware that you are wonderfully and fearfully made, and that the complicated and delicate mechanism of the haman body can be entirely disarranged by one part being out of or? der, just as the springs, wheels and cogs of a clock refuse to go, If even an infinitesimal por? tion of Mic works is wanting r , Being acquainted with this fact, how surpris? ing lt ls to see hundreds of sensible men and women going through life like a creaking door, always complaining and yet never resorting to any means of improving their health. Any little violent exercise for a few minutes will occasion great distress; beating of the heart, throbbing or the temples and labored and imped? ed respiration-this is weakness or debility, a thin and impoverished condition or the blood, the pabulum or lire. Nature, by these symptoms, ls making a requi? sition ror assistance and support. The machi? nery ls out or order-a screw ls loose somewhere In the animal mechanism-won't you repair lt? Won't yon raise up the digestive apparatus to a healthy couditlon, by a tonic and strengthen big medicine? Invalids, dyspeptics, nervous and delicate women, nursing mothers, listen to a word or advice? Take a course or SOLOMON'S BITTERS and you will be moat assuredly restor ed to your wonted health._mchl6 tuth*3 ?&-: SINKING SLOWLY.-DISEASES that progress rapidly to a crisis are not the only ones to be dreaded. Canker or dry rot does not blast a tree as suddenly as a stroke or lightning, but unless arrested.lt destroys lt as certainly; and In like manner chronic debility, although lt does not kill with the awirtness or yellow rever, ls as sure to sap thc springs er lire eventually as any acnte disease, ir not checked by invigorating medication. There la something Inexpressibly touching In thc spectacle of premature decay. Langor, pallor, emaciation, depression or spirits, and a distaste ror exertion, are Its ordinary symp? toms, and they should be promptly met by tonic treatment. The beat Invlgorant and cxhllarant that can be administered in a case or this kind ls HOSTETTER'S STOMACH HITTERS. The stimu? lating principle or the preparation rouses the dor? mant energies or thc system, and the strengthen? ing and regulating properties give a permanent and healthful Impulse to the vital forces thus brought into play. The falling appetite ls re? awakened, the process or digestion and assimila? tion are quickened, the qualiffof the blood ls Im? proved, the secretions become more natural, lind every organ that contributes to the nourishment or thc body undergoes salutary change. By these means the repair ol the physical structure ls effected and Its health and vigor restored. In no class or diseases has the beneficent operation of the Bitters been more marked and striking than In those characterized by general debility and nervous prostration. Ladles afflicted with these ailments Hid In this most wholesome of all tonics and correctives the safest and surest means of relief. It ls strong to restore and powerless to injure. Sach ls thc uniform testimony of "clouds of witnesses." mchli DACO pK*k GRAND EPOCH IN SCIENCE.
