ADVERTISERS will take notice that we cannot eng*age that any ..Cvertlsement, sent to THE NEWS offloeat a later hour than half-past nine o'clock at night will appear In the next morn? ing's paper.

THE JONE CONTENTION*.- We understand that Mr. John H. Devereux has Informed Captain Walter, the president of the late Reform mass meeting, that the pressure of important business engagements, which forbid his absence from the city, will prevent hun from serving as a delegate to the Jnne Convention. The vacanoy thus creat? ed will be filled by Captain Walter In accordance with the resolution of the meeting, and the name or the appointee will be announced in due tune.

Coleman, commissioner of deeds, New York; D. M. T. Huff, notary public, Branchville; Wm. Sumter and A. J. Ransier, trial justices for New? bery; Samuel F. Cooper, Edward R. Lesesne, Ed? ward J. Parker, David Dukes and Melvin J. Hirsch, trial justices for Williamsburg County; W. H. Sligh, trial Justice, Richland. The appoint? ment of E. M. Seabrook, trial justice Tor Beaufort, bas been revoked. FOB CONGRESS.-Maj or J. E. Bacon, of Edge Held, having been nominated for Congress from the Third Oongressional.Dlstrlct, has accepted the nomination. In his card, Major Bacon, referring to his political views, says: "I cannot better ex press them in general than by reference to and endorsement of the resolutions of the late Press Convention In Columbia. The consummation de Toutly to be wished is the hearty co-operatlen of all classes of the community, regardless of color or previous condition, In order to relieve the peo pie from the onerous burden of taxation so reek lessiy and cumulatively cast upon them; to inau gu rate an economical reform of the finances, and to expose and denounce the corruption now riot lng and fattening In the high places.-' FIRES IN THE COUNTRY.-The Edgefleld Ad vertlser says that the dwelling and smoke-house of Mr. Walter Skealy, at Bates ville, was burned down on Sunday night. The kitchen and another outhouse on the premises of Mr. Joseph Wylie, near Lewis ville, aowoooupled by J. Newton Whltesldes, were des t roy ed by fire oa the night or Tuesday, 10th Inst. It is supposed that the fire caught accldently from the stove pipe attached to the cooking stove Loss about $400. No insuranoe. The kitchen of Mr. John Smith, on Broad River, was burned on the morning of the 13th instant, between one and two o'clock. The kitchen was tn close proximity to the residence of Mr. Smith, and the dre had made such progress before lt was discovered, that the flames could not be arrested. The residence was badly scorched; but through the handsome conduct fed energy or the freed? men-employees on Mr. Smith's place-lt was saved. HOHE INDUSTRY AT THE SOUTH.-The New Fork Evening Post editorially says: "The ladles if Beaufort, in South Carolina, whom the events >f the civil war deprived af their possessions, lave turned then* attention to a branch of indns ;ry from which they hope to derive the means of subsistence. They make the green oranges which ire produced on the plantations into preserves, ind send them to the North for a market. They ire skilfully prepared-we may presume that the Haters learned the art in better days-and are ieat]p?put op bi glass jars. A letter from a lady lying before ns, says: 'James Lowndes, Esq., an excellent young lawyer of Charleston, S. C., will gladly act as the agent of the ladles of Beaufort, and receive orders, forward the sweetmeats, Ac. The price of the sweetmeats in jars ls two dol? lars, and the cost of the express on a dozen of them is two dollars and fifty cents. There are about tea varieties of these preserves, all excel? lent. When the making of them comes to be a recognized branch of industry, and the makers get some capital, they will be cheaper." THE MISSION AT THE CATHEDRAL CHAPVL. The mjfeton at the Cathedral Chapel, conducted by the Rev. Father Garesche, S. J., ends to-day. Father Garesche has preached three times a day daring the mission, and his fervid eloquence has drawn to the Chapel many who, for years, have taken no active part in the ceremonies of the Catholic Cliurch. The lectures at the morning services have been rather familiar than formal in their character, being chiefly addressed to thegrlucidatlon of dif? ferent points of church discipline. .Father Gare? sche has at his command a wealth of anecdote and illustration, which he uses with admirable taste and fine effect. The sermons at night were larger bi their soope, and in them Father Garesche poured out the rich store of his knowledge and piety with splendid force. One great character? istic of Father Garesche's preaching ls his evident earnestness which carries home his burning words to the hearts bf his'every hearer. Nor ls there anything in his expressions which should jar upon the ears or a non-Catholic This zealous defender of his church, himself a convert, knows what consideration ls due to those who differ from him in belief. Argument and pleading, not Invective and reproach, are the means whloh he employs for stimulating the devotion of his own flock, and there is neither bitter speech nor an? gry condemnation for Christians of other com? munions. _?_ UNITED STATES COURT-HON.

He seeks his harvest in the smaller towns, which don't say much for the circus. -The Berger Family of Bell Ringers last week concluded a brilliant engagement m New Orleans, and are at present in Mobile, on their return trip to New Tork. -There are at present thirty two circuses and menageries In the United States, giving employ? ment to over seven thousand men and horses, representing a capital of two million dollars. -A French opera troupe came to grief la Mo? bile last week. If they should have as good luck elsewhere, says a Mobile paper, their chances for starving to death are decidedly good. -The title or Mr. Robertson's last play, "M. P.," (which has achieved a very marked success) could hardly be surpassed tn point ol brevity, un? less, perchance, the next hero of the playwright should be an Intense egotist, and so justify the drama In which he figures being entitled "I." -Footlights which burn downwards are tn use at several of the London theatres. The plan ls not patented, and so is available for general use. Besides affording absolute security, these lights possess the advantage of entirely remov? ing the unpleasant vapor arising from the com? bustion of the gas. -, -A grand benefit was given at the Fifth Ave? nue Theatre, New York, Monday night, to the ve? teran actor, George Holland," tn which a number of the leading actors of America participated. Among the incidents of the occasion was a pre? sentation to thc beneficiary or a magnificent bouquet, made or greenbacks. ? i -Sothern, the actor, snubbed the snobbish offi? cers of a British regiment who dined with him at Edinburgh and then pressed him beyond endur? ance to give them a taste of bis style. He Com? menced the drunken scene from "David Garrick," when, to the astonishment or all present, he swept the cloth clean off the table, smashing glasses, de? canters, plates, ftc, wholesale. "W?tLKnvo DOWN BROADWAY," the stran? ger sees nothing so attractive as the great blaz? ing dollar store, with its young and fair sales? women, and Its endless piles of merchandise, em? bracing every conceivable article, all-the arti? cles, not the girls-for sale at the uniform and contemptibly low price of $l. Well, we are to have a dollar store m Charleston, just as bright and beautiful as its big brother la New Tork. The large establishment ou King street, just above Wentworth, lately-occupied by Macullar, Williams & Parker, bas been fitted up for the purpose, re? gardless of expense, and the grand opening and exhibition wlU take place on Monday next. See advertisement. CRUMBS.-The celebration of the Fifteenth amendment at Oakley Depot to-day, promises to t>e something extra, as the big guns of the Repub? lican party will be on hand, and explain to their gooram and credulous hearers that corruption s a myth.and bribery a thing unheard of among >ur model legislators. The street inspector ls making some marked mprovements on the streets up-town. The bed if the streets ls cleared of the dust, which ls used o All up the sidewalks In the low grounds of the lortheast section. The Cannonsboro' bridge ls now being repair id, and the travel on the Rutledge street line ias beeu Interrupted, though the passengers are 1 aken across the break, the cars walting at either Ide. At a meeting of the Gran? National Guard, leid on Wednesday evening, May 18, the foliow ag officers were unanimously elected: J. H. itewart, captain; Ely G ask ins, first lieutenant: .oms Hil], second lieutenant. A dispute arose on Monday, a few miles from he city, between Philip Wallace and h.

Co., seedsmen, on Ring street, have donated some time to the culture of the strawberry, and find that the early prolific of Mr. George Nunan, who first raised this plant, cannot be excelled. The berries are larger, red? der, more juicy, ripen earlier, yield more, and stand the climate and change of soil better chan other varieties. Some specimens sent to this office show to what perfection strawberry culture has been pushed with our garden farmers. INCREASED MAIL FACILITIES.-A new mail route has been established from Charleston to McCiellanvllle. Thc malls will be now carried twice a week. The contract has been awarded to Abram Smith.

The old post route was from Charles? ton to St. James's Santee. It never paid expenses, and was discontinued some years ago. The new ro ute is longer, and will probably be more ac ce ptable to the people in that section. Tribute of Respect. At a communication of Union Kiln-inning Lodge, No. 4, A. F.

Such ls the three-fold operation of HOSTET TERS STOMACH BITTERS, and hence the great luperlority of that standard vegetable restorative iver all medicines that are merely 'tonics and lothlng else. The effect of the ordinary astrin? gent tinctures and extracts upon the bowels ls lisastrous, and upon the depraved blood or bile hey produce no beneficial effects whatever. In lyspepsla nod liver complaint all the fluids and inmors of the body are more or less infected, and he bowels are often badly constipated. An un nodlfled astringent-quinine for instance-docs nfinitely more harm than good in such cases. In lOSTETTER'S BITTERS, on the other hand, the itimuiatlng and tonic elements are qualified with iperlents and antiseptic ingredients. The finest axatives and blood depurents in the vegetable tlngdom are intermixed with those ot" a purely nvigoratlng nature, and under the operation of his admirable combination, the three important I ( trccesses of Invigoration, regulation and purl-1 ( icatlon go on together. The rapidity with which he disordered organization returns to its natural :ondltlon, under a course of the Bitters, ls due to his cause. Every disturbed function of the body s favorably affected by the various properties of his comprehensive and well balanced prepara ion. As a general rule thc bowels are more ?ub ect to Irregularities, and the tluids more liable to tecome vitiated In spring and summer than in ?.Inter, and hence the Bitters are especially valu ible as a spring and summer alterative, correc ,lve and invigorant.
