His headquarters In Charleston are at Walker, Evaus & Cogswell's._ ANOTHER SruECii.-Governor Scott spoke a speech In Columbia on Thursday night. The Guardian says: '-In point of grammar, logic and manner-not to meution matter-we have but rarely heard a poorer speech, and venture to say that there arc not ten colored members of thc present Legislature who cannot deliver a more ?creditable one. Well may bis Kxcelleocy look to Wlacljsster rifles to s is alu him." CATHOLIC MISSIONS.-Thc New York Free? man's Journal says that Father Garcsche, the elo? quent anti devoted Jesuit missionary passed through this city last week on his way to Boston, to give a mission, and adds: "After that he goes directly to Charleston, S.

A SAVINGS BANK.-The South Carolina Loan and Trust Company have, since their organiza? tion, formed a separate branch known as the Sa? vings Bank, in which deposits of one dollar and upwards could bc received, and all deposits bear an interest of six per cent, per annum, computed -quarterly and passed to the credit of all deposi? tors.

HABEAS CORPUS.-Some time ago, a colored man named Harris Makepeace was arrested upon the charge or larceny and lodged In the Charles? ton County Jail, subject to the order of the Dar? lington Court. Day before yesterday he sued out a writ of habeas corpus, and Magistrates Whiting and Dingle, before whom thc writ was returnable, decided to discharge him from custody, on the ground that there were no affidavits against him, and that since his Imprisonment there had been a session ot the Darlington Court, and no r?quisi? tion had been made for him. HIGH WATERS.-Wc take th? following para? graph from the Camden Journal: The heavy rains of Saturday cansed a consider? able rl^e tn the river, and on Monday much of the land on its banks overdo wed, greatly damaging those who had their lands prepared for thc crop, linell of that work will be to do over again, which will retard planting operations. To many the in? jury will be serious, the work being backward on account of the past unfavorable seasons. We un? derstand that the overflow of the Lynches Creeks have done considerable damage on those. two. streams. , The water had -omraenced to recede, but the Tains of yesterday afternot n and last night will | doubtless cause lt to rise Again, and as lt ls st ill raining, the probability is that we shall have aa J high a freshet os has visited us for several years.

A large number or colored persons called to pay their respects and were well received. Ia the afternoon, carriages were furnished by the city authorities to afford the distinguished guest and his travelling friends an opportunity to observe thc various points of Interest In the .city and suburbs. In the leading ph eton, as lt passed, were General Lee and Miss Annie Russell, with Mayor Allen and Alderman Stovall. Fol lowing was a second phaeton, m which were ftngonel Crawley, of the British army, General Hrc Laws, Colonel Rains and Major T. P. Branch, |H%3 the carriages were driven through the city, all eyes were cagey to catch a view of the fen t c res V ot the noble patriot and Christian gentleman ?who-'e presence had awakened such universal interest. In addition to an exhibition of the beauties of the city, the delightful vlltage of Susri jnervlUe was also visited, the party returning to the hotel at a late hour In thc afternoon.

At 10 o'clock, the members of the Quartette and Amateur Clubs discoursed several pieces of ap? propriate vocal and instrumental music la frout of the hotel, but in deference to his special re? quest, General Lee was not called out. General Lee and his travelling companions left Augusta for Savannah on the s : io train yesterday morning, in which city they propose to spend several days and go thence to Florida, one of the obj^s of General Lee being to visit the grave of his father, on Cumberland Island. I AMUSEMENTS. She Stoops to Conquer. The fine old English comedies, in thc hands of competent players, arc always sure to draw a good house in Charleston ; and even had a less nt tractive bill than Goldsmith's "She Stoops to ' Conquer" bceu announced, thc hearty good will : and admiration which Miss Laura Keene has al ? ready won in our community wonld have sufficed 5 to make her Ueucflt last night what it was-a marked success. The opening comedietta, "Two Can Play at That ' Game," was a charming piece, admirably pre 1 sented by Miss Keene, Mr. Monlaunt and Mr. ' Stuart. Hut in "She Stoops to Conquer," the dramatic 1 ptece-de-reslslance of the evening, Miss Keene achieved her most complete triumph, thus far, since she first appeared on the Academy boards. Certainly never has the character of thc arch, fun-loving Kate Ilardcastle been so admirably 1 personated In Charleston. The rest of the cast iras most judiciously made up; and uo one who witnessed the performance will for a moment doubt the capacity of this excellent company to present, in worthy style, any of the favorite and standard plays which, like "The School for Scan? dal," require a powerful dramatic combination. Mr. Hawk as the rollicking, mischievous, good natured Tony Lumpkln, was exceptlonably good, In his acting as well as make up; and Mr. Mor dannt was a capital Youug Marlow. The pcriect naturalness which always distinguishes this gen? tleman's manner and tone ou t lie stage cannot be too highly praised. "Our American Cousin" will be produced for the last time at the matinee to-day, thc hour of which has been changed, it will be noticed, to V2 o'clock noon. Of course, the ladies and chil? dren will turu oaten-masse to see this celebrated play at the cheap rates of admission. For to-night ive are promised a great bill, em? bracing two most amusing comedies, besides thc ever-popnlar Toodles. MEETING OE TUE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. A meeting of this body was held at 12 M. yesterday, in the hall over the office o? 1. T. Lowndes, on Broad street, Robert Mure, Esq., presiding. Mr. Samuel Y. Tupper called the attention of thc chamber to the Inconvenience and unfltn" or the present postofflce, and stated that lie had conrerred with the postmaster, who was of the opinion that if the two commercial organizations of the city would properly present tho condltiou [ of the postofflce to Congress an appropriation might be secured to have the offlce changed to a more eligible site, where the administration or its affairs could be done with greater advantage to both the government and the citizens or Chai les? ion. In concluding his remarks, Mr. Tupper pre? sented the following PETITION", and moved that it be adopted, copies of lt print? ed, signed by tte president and secretary of tho Chamber, and the citizens generally, and for warded to Congress: This memorial rf the Chamber of Commerce and the citizens or Charleston respectfully repre? sent that the building in which the city postottlce ls now located hos, by reason of the resumption and increase of business within its delivery, be? come insufficient for the reasonable convenience of the public, as well as for the necessities in ad? ministration or Its duties; and they deem lt perti? nent and proper to set forth to tour honorable body that the building owned "by the Cultcd States, and formerly occupied jointly as a custom? house and a postofflce, situated ou Broad and East ; Bay streets, lu Charleston, was, by the bombard? ment or the city durbig the war, so nearly demol? ished as to be utterly untenable, so that upon the re-establishment of thc postofflce In 1865, it be? came necessary to appropriate, by leasing tempo- . rai i ly, such a building as might be best adapted to the immediate necessities alike or the Post office Department and the population. Under these circumstances the lectnre room or the Cen- t tral Presbyterian Church was repaired and leased \ for the term of three years, from October, 1866, with a further privilege or an extension of ten years, at the monthly rental of $156. Ia the meantime thc building has been made to j subserve, Inconveniently, thc requirements of the service, but it is inadequate not only to an In- c creasing business, bat to the present need. The entire offlce room, including* lobby, is embraced In thc dimension or sixty-two feet In length and " ihlrty-two ree' m width, wl:h an additional roora sight feet by twelve feet, and with the best prac- 2 dcable arrangements of tables, cases, desks, woks, delivery windows and indispensable fur? niture. Thc offlce cannot be properly accommo- c lated, and its several departments of separating, . malling, box and general delivery,* route agent?, mail messengers and carriers, register letters and money order business, cannot be conducted with such caution and order as thc public has a * right to enjoy, and as thc postmaster and assist- \ ants might hope to achieve. There arc within the central and business por? tions of the city eligible sites for a post?nico, which eau bc purchased advantageously; and it ? ls the prayer or the petitioners that your honor- , able body will take such action as will secure to the government, as well as to thc people of Charleston, a respectable and convenient post? offlce. All or which ls rcspectrully submitted. The motion or Mr. Tupper was adopted, and on - motion or Mr. Henry Gourdin, the president : was requested to communicate the action or thc chamber to the Board or Trade, and request its co-operation. Mr, Tupper said that as there were numerous inquires regarding thc action of the committee appointed to petition Congress relative to turning ; over to the chamber thc old customhouse build? ing, he wonld stat? that the committee had drawn up a petition and forwarded it to Congress, where i lt bad been read and referred to thc Committee < on Commerce, which bad not yet reported. < On motion or Mr. L. D. DcSaussur?, the prcsl- < dent was requested to confer with the postmas- ( ter, and ascertain if there could not bc effected some arrangement by which the Postofflce box ] at Messrs. Walter, Evans A Cogswell could be ? kept open a little later at night, as lt was now closed too early for the business men, who were i compelled to walk up to the Postofflce late at i night ir they desired to get their letters off by the morning mails. The chamber then adjourned. Hotel Arrivals-April 1. CUAULE?TOX HOTEL. J. C. Derby, Dr. P. G. Rockwell, Aiken; Mrs. Jamts, Mrs. Chnbbock, New York; F. N. Burnett, New Jersey; Colonel Wm. J.

The Cuban residents at Key West have had a fair for thc purpose or raising fonds to aid the cause or their compatriots, who are spilling their blood for the independence or their country. The Cubans residing in Charleston ought to follow them. The Key West Cuban Fair has been very successfoL We, their companions In this city, thank them for the indefatigable effort they make for our country and for the happy results obtain? ed, which should encourage them nc vcr to desist from their noble and patriotic endeavor.

FRESHET.-One of the highest freshets known for several years past has occurred on thc Wnteree. The river is so high that the planting will be retarded, and the ploughing will have tc be done over. Tho low grounds in the neighbor? hood of the river have been flooded, and consider? able damage to the planting interest is feared. BUSINESS NOTICES. NEW YORK LIFE INSURANCE COMPANT. Thc greatness of a country is best shown in its permanent Institutions. They at once give solidi? ty and perpetuity to Its character and standing with other nations. That America ls now In the ascendant, is proved by the superiority of her In snrancc companies. The fact ls now becoming recognized, even in Europe, that her life corpora? tions are the safest and best in the world. It ls this growing sentiment In our favor which has induced the New York Life Insurance Company of this city to establish an agency in London, where Its excellence ls already appreciated, and where there are many thousands who will be easily persuaded to Insure their lives In a com? pany which offers better security than can any life association in England, where there ls no government supervision, and little or no publici? ty given to the actual condition or such corpora? tions. Insurers in England will And the New York Life a company they can implicitly trust with th cir savings, economically and skilfully conduct? ed, prompt and certain in their payments, and liberal and just In all Its dealings. It has select? ed a gentleman to represent it In this new field for American enterprise, who has already de? monstrated his remarkable efficiency In a similar undertaking on the Pacific Coast, where, in thc space of a few years, he built up a life business from a small beginning of some forty thousand dollars a year to au annual income of one million and a hair. He ls not only a manager of superior skill and energy, but of unimpeachable worth and Integrity. A better mau could not have been se? lected, nor one more certain to do credit to thc New York Life, and Indeed to the entire insur? ance f. ternlty of this country. He has our best wishes for his prosperity In the old world.-Insur? ance Times. ^_ THE FALL IN PRICES.-Our readers will no? tice the advertisement of Melchers & Muller In another columnn announcing that they are offer? ing their choice dry goods at thc prices of I860.
