The crowd, in the vicinity ol' the Mills House, witnessed a fierce at? tack made by a white female upon one of the sterner sex. Although a parasol was the only weapon used, legs did their duty nobly, and the victim of a woman's wrath lett incontinently. The casus MU is unknown. UNI TKO ?TA TES COURT-Hos. GEORGE S. BRjtAX, J iDQE, PRESIDING.-Yesterday, General Geary, ia behalf of David T. Grice, convicted of mail robbery, made a motion for a new trial. Af? ter General Geary concluded his argument, the case was continued to hear the United States Dis? trict Attorney's reply, as several jury cases had been set for trial at 12 M. These were then taken np, aud occupied the court up to adjournment. PROFESSOR SACHTLEBEN.-We. are gratified to announce that this estimable gentleman and eminent teacher, who has won so enviable a name throughout this aad neighboring States by his ripe scholarship and signal success as a pro? fessor in the State University, has returned from lili visit to California, bpv'ug found no more con? genial and inviting field tor his rare talents than is presented by our good old city. Professor Sachlichen ls now making arrangements by which he expects, within a week or ten days, to open a first-class classical and practical school for youths. . He wUl certainly be a great acquisi? tion to the educational advantages of Charleston. TOE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, SOUTH. The General Conference of the Methodist Episco? pal Church, South, which convenes in Mem? phis, Tennessee, early in May, will be, for several reasons, one of the mest important ses? sions of that body which has ever been held. The General Conference, for the first time since Its existence, will be composed of an equal number of '.iy and clerical delegates, and besides this thdc seems to be not only a general desire on the part of thc laity, but au increased desire on the part of the clergy, for a restoration of what .is known as the old two-year rule-the last Gene? ral Conference having extended the term to four years. This change has never been popular with a lo^ge number of thc laity, who now desire its repeal. This and other Important matters will, perhaps, be acted upon. SAVANNAH IX TUE COMING REGATTA.-The Saraunah Advertiser, in alluding to the Invitation to the boat clubs ofthat city to participate in our regatta, under the auspices of the Charleston Ag? ricultural Society next week, says: ' "he question ' of accepting this Invitation involves one or two difficulties. Ail of thc various crews are busily engaged in preparing for our own annual regatta, and would find lt hard to break in upon their val? uable time. Moreorer, the shell boats-of which we ' have several-would not, with any degree or hope, 1 undertake to pull in the rough Charleston water?, : against canoe-built crafts. Yet, even with objee- ; tious so Important, the King Cotton Club, we j learn, indirectly propose to enter their famous boat, manned by a picked crew, to compete for the prizes offered by the society (the latter are al- ( together too limited In Taine for any enthusiasm 1 that might be engendered,) and If the society ? would consult the true Interests of boating, a greater Incentive for competition will be offered 1 before the day of the race3. At our own regatta, last year, nothing less than $150 was given."

The Pioneer was first tried, am* in a few moments there were two or more engines at every well within ene hundred yards of the spot, and a casual visitor would have thought, from the num? ber or engines at work, and the bustle, that a tre? mendous tire was in progress In the vicinity. About 6o'clock the exercise was terminated, and the firemen carried their apparatus home. AMUSEMENTS. Thc Academy or Music-Somn?mbula. This melodious opera was well performed Jast night by thc Richings Opera Troupe, to che great satisfaction of the_large3t audience of the week. Mrs. Bernard (Amina) was thoroughly nt home in the music of her role, and was called before the curtain after the second nnd third acts. The brilliant "Ah ! non Glunge !" with which the opera ends, was admirably suug by this accom? plished artist. The voice of Mr. Pierre Bernard (Elvluo) ls hard and nnsympathetlc, but he sang with spirit and good effect, especially in the beautiful quartette or thc secoud act. The Count Rodolpho of Mr. Henry Drayton was a finished performance, and although his voice was veiled and rather obscure in "VI Rav viso," he made a decided hit by his careful sing? ing and his easy and natural acting. The Lisa of Miss Mi s cilka was very good, as was the Donna Teresa of Mrs. MaBaen. The humor of Mr. White (Alesslo) was rather coarse for this latitude. Per? haps this artist forgets the advice of Hamlet to to the player, "And let those that play your clowns speak no more than ls sot down for them." The choruses were capitally done, especially the Phantom chorus, which was sung with a pre? cision and an attention to light and shade, which cannot be easily surpassed. The scenery, more? over, was very pretty, particularly the set scene, In the third act. To-night, we have Wallace's Maritana-to our mind one- the most preaslug operas on the Eng? lish stage. CRUMBS.-Enoch Murrell and Edward Ray, the boys who stole several valuable Masonic jew? els day oefore yesterday, have been committed to Jail. The Mayor's Court now contributes but little in the way of fines to the city treasury. FIRE.-A few minutes before 12 o'clock last night flames were seen Issuing from the windows of the building occupied by Messrs. C. N. Averill A Son, on the east side of East Bay street, a few doors below THE NEWS Office. The alarm was given and the engines came on the ground, and the firemen worked gallantly to check the fire, which had gained considerable headway and threatened to destroy the buildings adjoining. By l o'clock, however, the flames, which had been confined to the one building, were extinguished. Everything in the building was destroyed. TBhe amount of the loss could not be ascertained. Both the building and stock, we learn, were par? tially lnsnred. We are sorry to add that Mr. Jerry Cohan, of the Palmetto Fire Engine Company, fell off the roof of a building adjoining the house which was on tire and dislocated his ankle. BUSINESS ENTKLOPSS.-THE NEW3 Job Office ls now prepared to furnish good envelopes, with business cards printed thereon, at $4 per thous? and. Send your orders. Every merchant and business man should hare bis card printed on bis envelopes. THE OLD HERO. THE WHITE FIREMEN PRESENT THEIR RE? SPECTS TO GENERAL LEE. A Noble Welcome. As soon as the inspection of the white fire companies was over, they pat up their apparatus, I and, by arrangement, assembled on Meeting street and were formed into line, the head of the column resting on Market street. After the line was formed, It was headed by Muller'3 band, and marched to Mr. Bennett's residence, at the foot or Montagne street. On arriving there, three times-three cheers were given ror General Lee, who In a short time appeared on the porch, and was lustily cheered, the band play? ing Dixie. Cider Engineer Nathan then stated that the firemen had come to pay their respects to the General. The Firemastrrs were then introduced to the General, and extend? ed to him a hearty welcome to the city. Loud calls were then made upon General Lee to speak, but Hon. C. G. Memmlnger stepped forward and stated that the condition of the General's lungs would not permit of his making a speech, and he had deputed him to respond and express hi3 feel? ings at the compliment paid him. When Mr. Mem? mlnger ceased, the crowd still called upon the Gen? eral, not to make a speech, but only to "say one word." Arter these calls had continued ror seve? ral moments, the General said: "I thank you, gen? tlemen, Tor the compliment you have paid me. The reason assigned by Mr. Memmlnger prevents me rrom saying more; I can only say, thank you." Alter repeated cheers for the General, and "Dixie" and "Bonnie Blue Flag" by the band, the line was reformed, proceeded down town and disbanded. There were not less than two thous? and persons present, all of whom united In pay? ing their respect to their loved chieftain. THE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE.

A meeting of the Charleston Bar was held in the Equity court-room at io o'clock yesterday morning, to pay a tribute of respect to the memo? ry of the late Hon. Richard Yeadon. Nearly all of the members of the Bar were present. A few minutes after io o'clock, John Phillips, Esq., called the meering to order, and on his mo? tton, Hon. Isaac W. Hayne was called to the chair. C. R. Miles, Esq., elected secretary, and Hon. R. B. Carpenter requested to take a seat beside the chairman. The chairman announced the object of the meeting, and briefly alluded to the mental en? dowments and mora! attributes of thc deceased. Hon. W. D. Porter, after a few eulogistic re? marks, Introduced the following preamble and resolutions, and urged their adoption as au ex? press lon of thefeellngs of the Bar: The Bar ls again assembled, after a brier inter? val, for the discharge of melancholy offices. Another brother has ceased from his labors; another soldier has fallen in the ranks, "weary with t he march of life." One by one the sheaves are being gathered to the harvest or death. Wc know that all shall soon be taken. We only do not know who shall be next in order. Richard Yeadon was born in the year 1862; in the year 1820 he graduated at the South Carolina College with thc second houors or his class, and in the year 1824 he was enrolled a member of thc Bar. After a long and useful career, professional and public, he was on Monday last called away from this earthly estate, and with him have gone from ns forever great talents, great Industry and great learning, indomitable energy, and an in? tegrity of purpose and conduct worthy of all Imi? tation. Whatever good men can leave behind them, he has left-the recollection or his virtues and the Incentives of a pure and noble example. Mr. Yeadon was essentially a Iawver. The structure of his mind, and his habits or thought and study, fitted him for this profession, of all oth? ers. He iras capable of a severe logic, and of great subtlety of distinction, while his varied reading and his singular tenacltr of memory sup? plied him with ample resources of expression and illustration. Forensic discussion was his delight, ne thoroughly enjoyed the rapture of the strife, ile went into a cause with his whole soul, when satisfied of the Justice ot his case, and devoted himself to the sen-ice of his client without re? serve of any kind. With clear and acute percep? tions, and a love of labor that was measured only by his wonderful capacity of endurance, lt may well be supposed that he was a thorough worker, and a most formida? ble antagonist. And so he wat?. How he could do so much, and such various work, and do ic all at one time, with such completeness, was a marvel to all who knew him. His sagacity and earnestness, his knowledge or principles and searching preparation, would have given him a distinguished position as a lawyer at any Bar in the country. His last elaborate printed argu? ment, touching the liabilities or stockholders In certain banks, prepared under the pressure of sore and painful disease*- ia a monument to his ability, Industry and learning. His love of the right, and his hatred of injustice - and oppression, gare a high and derated tone to his professional character. He was of the class of lawyers who regard law as the embodiment of right and justice. Not only Intellectually, but morally, Mr. Yeadon was a remarkable man. He was a true man true to his nature, lils convictions, and his sense ot duty. There was no sham, no pretence, no hypocrisy about him. These things were his scorn. He had moral and ctril courage; and this is not only Intrinsically a most noble possession, but lt ls practically a qaallty or at? tribute ot vastly greater value to a community than is generally supposed. The mau who, in times of popular delusion or passion, can and will throw himself across the angry current, and, stemming lt with lusty resistance, labor to break c>r stay Its headlong fury, ls a public benefactor, and must have a large element of heroism in his nature. An act of this sort oftentimes recalls the public mind to Its propriety; but whether it suc? ceeds tn doing this or not, it ls, at all times, emi? nently deservlug of thc public respect to a far higher degree than ls usually accorded to lt. Mr. Yeadon was a man capable of this sort of self-sacrifice er martyrdom. He had the inde? pendence to speak his thoaght, however unpopu? lar lt blight be, and the courage to stand alone whenever the multitude declared against him. His whole history, as known to us all, ls an attes? tation of thc truth or this statement. He was a iturdy, strong, conscientious, self-reliant man. lie would not palter with his convictions; He would not for any price os consideration debase >r violate thc moral sense-the conscience-inn 3od had planted lu hi) bosom. His true and hon sst counsel was always at thcserrlces of the com? munity, but he gave it heedless of personal con icquencea; and in all matters of public concern M manifested the fidelity and self-denial of the true patriot. Those who differed from him, con 'essed his honesty; whllo those who agreed with lim, felt that they possessed In bim a pillar of itrength. - And so. In all matters of prlra te trust and duty, Ur. Yeadon was scrupulously exact. Ula lutegri .y was the lininedlafe Jewel of his soul. No temptation could make him betray a trust or se luce him Into any wilful dereliction of duty. .'Integer due c?leris gue punis1' may with per? met truth bc written on thc shaft that will mark lils resting place; And this friend and brother of ours, so endow id with high Intellectual and moral attributes, was also large-hearted, generous and sincere. If Heaven, lu reward of his many excellencies, gare dm affluence, he became the almoner of Hearcn. n grateful recognition of its blessings. His heart :ould not shut Itself against the pleadings of want or thc cry of distress. He knew by ex? perience that it was more blessed to gire than to receive, and, in accordance with a law of God's moral economy, he enjoyed to tho full the luxury )f doing good. How many will miss tho ready, liberal hand that scattered its bounties tn prolu? sion* Hoir will the widow and the orphan, the poor and the distressed, look In vain tor the friend that never failed them before. In charity with all mankind, with an humble raith and a sincere trust in Qnd his Maker and Redeemer, he hos gone to his account. The great mystery of life and death ls solved for him. We trust and believe that his many virtues, his many Rood and charitable purposes, his many, many deeds of kindness and generosity to those in need, his simple faith and unshaken reliance upon the Divine goodness and mercy, will win their way to the chancery of Heaven, nnd will secure for him from the Great Judge of ail the earth, amid the ncclntmed of saints and angels, the glorious welcome or "WWI done, good and jailli ful ser? vant ."' Resolved, That thc Bar or Charleston lament with heartfelt sorrow the loss they have sustain? ed In the death of their venerable and beloved brother, Richard Yeadon. Res deed, That the chairman be requested to convey to tho widow or our deceased brother as* durances of mir condolence and sympathy with lier, and of our high respect for tho memory of her distinguished husband. Hon. C. G. Memmlngcr seconded the resolutions, and in making some eulogistic remarks upon the works and character of the deceased, said that he did not think he could regard the decease of Ur. Yeadon as a loss. He looked upon his death as thc flnishiug of the work for which he was Bent Into the world. His Creator had' sent him here to do a noble work, and now he was at rest, with that labor successfully accomplished. General James Simons, Honorables E. McCra dy, Sr., and M. P. O'Connor followed In brief re? marks, all speaking eloquently or the deceased, his clear and strong Intellect, strength or pur? pose, his devotion to Justice, and his earnestness la espousing whatever he believed to be right; and affectionately and touchingly alluded to their private and official relations with him, who was ever ready to encourage and assist them. On motion of Hon. Mr. Memmlngcr. thc pre amble and resolutions were unanimously adopted. On motion of Hon. W. G. DeSanssure. lt was Resolved, That the preamble and r?solutions be published in thc dally papers, and copies sent le the family of the deceased, and thc proceedings be spread upon the minutes of the United States and State Courts.
