LA ESTRELLA DE CUBA.-We have received from the Cuban Junta a copy of "The Star of Cuba," the official organ ol the Cuban League Of the United States. THE COUNTY SEAT OF BARNWELL-Judge Platt decides that Barnwell village, and not Blackville, ls the place fixed by law for holding the Courts of General Sessionsi and Common Pleas for Barnwell County. This decision ends .the matter for the present. MULE THIEVES.-TWO unknown men stole two fine mules from th? premises of Mr. L. M. ?Ott, near Branchville, on Sunday night, and made their way to the coast. A pursuit was .organized and their capture probable, though Mr. Ott offers ^reward of $60 for their recov? ery, and gives a description of the mules In our advertising columns. THE MISSION AT ST. PATRICK'S CHURCH. The mission at St. Patrick's Church began on Sunday last, and ends on Sun-lay next. Dur? ing the week the servicer are as follows: 5 A. M. and 8:30 A. M., mass and Instructions by the Rev. Father Garesche. 7:45 P. M.* Rosary, sermon by the Rev. Father Garesche and bene .dlction. We learn that Father Garesche, expects to .deliver'some doctrinal sermons next week, in addition to the lecture at the Hibernian HaU .on June 9. iv -. -NEW MININO COMPANY.-Last week 'a num? ber of gentlemen concluded to organize a .mining and manufacturing company, secured lands within seven miles of the city, and .on * .yesterday, with a capital of $70,000, organized under the name of the Chlcora Mining and Manufacturing Company. The following named ?gentlemen were elected directors: A. D. Es till, (president;) John H. Holmes, J. S. Mur? dock, Bndolph Stegling and T. A. Jeffords; "T. A. WTtselL. secretary. The spirit of enter- ; prise thus evinced ls a sufficient guarantee .that the work of this company wiU be ener- 1 .geiicalty and successfully pushed forward. 1 THE CONCERT.-The Hibernian Hali was 'thronged last night, to hear the concert given bjr Mr. Kemmerert class of nearly two hun- ' -dred young singers. The stage was almost .uncomfortably crowded with the little ones, but their bright faces betokened that the oc casion was one of as much enjoyment to them as those who came to hear them, The enter? tainment consisted of miscellaneous music, .and the rendering of the pieces showed that tho singers had been well drilled by their teacher. In some of the pieces snug by the .entire class, there was, as was to be expected, a little discord; but, altogether, the concert was a success, and the parents of the children ..bave reason to be gratified at the proficiency displayed. Mr. Kemmerer will give another entertain iment to-morrow night. THE COMING CENSUS.-The census of 1870 will commence to-morrow, and by the first of November the enumeration, not only of per- . sons but of Industries and social statistics, will be complete In the office of the department at I Washington. In the slow process of govern- i ment we will then know, when a year or eigh- ( teen months is passed, how great the nailon ? has grown within the past ten years. The ma- : chinery of the census ls very extensive, re- i quiring a personal visit of an "assistant mar? shal" to each dwelling house and every family, every farm, mill, shop and mine, and the indi? vidual Interrogation of millions, each of whom probably thinks lt a bore, but over whose head a fine of thirty dollars hangs In case of any squeamishness about answering. It is a matter of two cents a head to the man with the book and pencil, and he bas taken an oath to get those two cents and not to speculate for more, by putting down names which have no existence or local habitation. Since the lasl census, a terrible war has devastated our coun? try, and a careless and incompetent Congress bas afforded little help toward the recovering of our prosperity: but it ls thought that this, the ninth censas, will nevertheless show that, as a nation, we have grown faster In wealth, .industry and population, than in any preced? ing decade of our history, while the develop, ment of our mineral resources and means of communication are estimated to be equal to the growth of any twenty previous years. CRUMBS.-The New York Evening Post, al? luding to the approaching sale by auction of the Artesian Well in Charleston, says it is . 'an article which would scarcely attract Mrs. Toodles herself." Chief Constable Hubbard was In the city yes? terday. A fine Newfoundland dog is at the Guard? house awaiting an owner. The Chamber of Commerce was in session Jast night and transacted some business of im? portance to the Chamber. Up to noon yesterday Mr. F.

Ia pursuance of instructions from Head? quarters Grand Army of the Republic, to de? vote the 30th of May to decora.lng the graves, and doing honor to the memory of the soldiers of the Union army who fell during the strug? gle, the graves of those buried in Magnolia Cemetery were decorated yesterday afternoon, after solemn ceremonies, under the auspices of Shaw Post, No. 1, Grand Army of the Re? public. THE ARRIVAL. Shortly before 3 o'clock a special train of the South Carolina Railroad, on which were the members of. Shaw Post and their friends, left the Ann street depot for Magnolia. Arriving opposite the Cemetery the Post disembarked, and, headed by the Chlcora Cornet Band, marched into tire ground, where they dis? persed to await the hour of 4 o'clock-the time for commencing the ceremonies. Shortly after their arrival, the first battalion of Charles? ton Ught-lnfantry, (colored) headed t. t drum corps', and followed by a large crowd of col? ored persons, mashed to the front of the stand-having'marched out from the city. The stand, situated near the chapel, was en? tirely covered with flags of the United States. On lt were a number of ladies, General Gur? ney, Major Corbin, and several of the white and colored officials of the city. Around it was a crowd of about twenty-five hundred per? sons, three-fourths of whom were colored. At 4 o'clock the members of the Shaw Post, with drooping banners and with the band playing a dirge, 'proceeded slowly to the front of the stand, being saluted by the infantry as they passed. So soon as the Siiaw Post was ia position, Captain Reed called the assemblage to order, and after a brief address, in which he stated the object for which they had been called to? gether, and mentioned that the Grand Army of the Republic had not been instituted to re? vive the bitterness of the past nor to humiliate a fallen foe, but to keep fresh the memories of the glorious deeds of the late war, and to do honor to the Union dead, read the order (above referred to) from General Logan, com? mander of the Grand Army of the Republic. Captain Reed then introduced Rev. Dr. Web? ster, who fervently prayed that the country for which those whose graves they had come to decorate had died to save, would be perpetuat? ed, and its citizens be blessed with increased happiness and prosperity. ADDRESS OF MAJOR CORBIN*. After the prayer, Captain Reed introduced Major D. T. Corbin, United States District At? torney. Major Corbin, after speaking of the object for which they had assembled, and pay? ing a tribute to those of the Union soldiers who had fallen, defined that*a governmeot was* con structed for the good of the many, and that the good of the individual should be overlook? ed when brought Into contact. He then briefly alluded to the various governments which had risen, flourished awhile and gone to decay. Aad, said he, when the Governmeat of the United States was formed, Its framers sought to combine all of the good, aad reject thc bad which had existed in the governments that had goue to decay. The result was a govern? ment such as never existed before-one of which every citizen was proud, and boasted of its Institutions. While all were congratula? ting themselves upon havintr such a glorious :ountry, and upon being on the high road to jrosperity, they were ovetaken by a storm-a ttorm of passion, which raged for four long rears, during which blood flowed like water, reason was destroyed, and man, beast-llkc, wright his brother man but to destroy. Now :he storm ls over. The Union which was fern and rent is restored, and reason has re? sumed her throne. The speaker, after speak'og at some length }f the Interest felt by fore gn nations In the struggle, and their surprise thal a nation could recover from a shock which would have over? thrown them, alluded again to the Union sol ilers, their bravery, endurance and victories, md said that, while it behooved the soldiers- of the United States not to forget these deeds utd victories, yet lt did not become them to say or do anything that would wound or hu? m?llate those with whom they contested; their terrible failure was punishment enough; but they must cultivate a fraternal feeling, and ?re long all would be united to preserve the Union. GENERAL CORNEY'S ADDRESS. General Wm. Gurney was next introduced by Captain Recd. The general paid a tribute to the Union soldiers, whom he claimed had lied that right might triumph over injustice, md that freedom might be given to those who had beeu kept in bondage. The war had been one of Titans, and great was the struggle. Those who had fought against us, said he, fought for an -'effete Idea," upon which the world had set the seal of condemnation, but they fought with a zeal, devotion aud bravery which were worthy of a better 'cause. It ls not In the order ot things that the bitterness and antipathies engendered by the war should cease to exist at oace, but every day these feelings are softened, and, ina short time, the Northerner and Southerner will be moving hand in hand ia the great work of restoring the country to Its former glor* After speak? ing of the necessity of cultivating such'feel? ings, and stating tbat all could well afford to await until these asperities were softened, the speaker retired. ADDRESS OF W. J. WHIPP2R. W. J. Whipper, colored, representative from Beaufort County, then delivered a short address, at first following in the same strain as his predecessors, paying a tribute to the dead. He then proceeded to speak of those who had fought and lost, saying that while he consign? ed to infamy the cause for which they fought, yat he could not forget their zeal and bravery infighting. The contending parties foughl for two different Ideas. One for liberty, which was brought over la the ship which lauded Its living freight on Plymouth Rock; the other for the maiatenauce of aa oppresstou which was brought to this country in a low black schoon? er which sailed up the James River la 1620. The oppressloa for which the Southerners fought had gottea Into the church, into the Suaday-schools, lato Congress; had attempted to control the entire land, and had throttled free speech. Not until it could be borne no longer, was the dread arbitrament of the sword resorted to, which resulted in op. pression being overthrowa and a Union, In which all could think and act alike, was re? stored. After admonishing the soldiers present that they must not hesitate, if ever the necessity arose, to fight and die lor their country, as did those whose graves surrouaded them, the speaker sat do wa. After the readlog, by Rev. Dr. Webster, of a poetical tribute to the dead, C?ptala Reed an? nounced that the deenrations of the graves would take place. The assemblage then pro? ceeded to lay upon the graves the flowers and wreaths which they had brought with them. In a short while each mound was covered by these tributes of affection, and those present slowly dispersed.

FIRST COMMUNION.-A large number of boys and girls made their first communion at St. Patrick's Church, Sunday. Father Garesche delivered, on the occasion, a short and feeling address. ~ PERSONAL.-The Hon. C. W. Dudley, in a letter published in the Bennettsvilie Jotirnal. says: r have no right to be called a Republican but there is nothing in the name to be ashamed of outside these Southern States, and particu? larly South Carolina. Those of them who have come here to tyrannize over the people and defraud them of their hard earnings, do not represent the Republican party-they are a curse to it, ?nd are felt to be so bv trie pure men of that party. **?**??* What we want in South Carolina is men of I honest principles-be they Democrats or Re? publicans, of whatever race, condition or col? or.' These we must have, or the State had as well be sunk to the bottom of the Atlantic ocean. And we intend to have them. * * * lam thoroughly with them who want re? form in the State, and though nor a Hcpubli can, will support any one of theil by rr.y vote who is not a disgrace to his own party. THE SOUTH CAROLINA CENTRAL E ABROAD COMPANY.-Subscriptions to the capital stock of | lliis company are now in course of co^'ection. The road is to be forty miles long, fr m the Northeastern Railroad to Sumter. It L asses through a country which has comparative;/ no railroad lacilliles, and saves thirty-six miles in the trip from Sumter to Charleston. The roa>l is staunchly supported by the Northeastern Railroad Company, and should be backed up by the merchants of this city, to whom the accompanying circular will.convey some pleas? ing information: SUMTER, S. C.. May 10. We, the undersigned, merchants of the Town of Sumter, S. C., desiring to remove the impression entertained by the commercial interests of Charleston, that we do not wish to renew business relations with them, take occa? sion to submit the following facts: That the Wilmington and Manchester Railroad is the only railroad company in direct communica? tion with the Town of Sumter; that the sched? ule and tariffs of this road are used in the in? terest of other cities, and are directly against those of Charleston, making it impossible to ship produce either to, or via Charleston, at equal or less rates, but rather at ?rreatly in? creased cost of transportation and delav. We are called upon to protect ourselves ac? cordingly, and do regret the necessity which deprives us of renewing old and well-estab? lished relations with the merchants of Charles? ton. That in common with the commercial in? terest ol our State, we were necessitated to make business relations outside of South Car? olina, where capital was more abundant and cheaper chan at home. That there is now less necess:ty to require or obtain credits abroad for ordinary business purposes, and we are now able to elect the most favorable points and otters of reciprocal business relations. As evidence of our earnest desire to renew our commercial interests with the merchants ot Charleston, we would state that nearly all of us are natives of South Carolina, many of ? us former residents of thc City of Charleston, feeling a common interest with you in the wel? fare and prosperity of your city; that we have generally subscribed, "to the "extent of our means, to aid in the building of the South Caro? lina Central Railroad, and In this enterprise, of | mutual advantage, we expect tine merchants of Charleston to reciprocate, and otherwise co-operate with us, to secure its early comple? tion and successful operation. From the increasing facilities of the mer? chants of Charleston, we express the hope and confidence that the good ola "City by the Sea" will regain her former patronage, and largely extend her commercial prosperity and in? fluence throughout our entire State."

Advertising induces the public to try many things, but In this shrewd and thoughtful age, words will not suffice with? out proofs, and lt is by the exercise of their pri? vate judgment, men determine the relative value of the various articles recommended to their no? tice through the business columns of newspapers. HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS has now been subjected to this searching ordeal for more than eighteen years, and the result ls that lt stands at the head of the class of remedies to which lt be? longs. It bas distanced and lived down innu? merable competitors, and ls to-day the Standard Vegetable Tonic of the Western world. The happy e tree ts which have followed Its use in cases of dyspepsia, biliousness, nervous affections, inter? mittent fevers and general debility, and as a con? stitutional lnvlgorant, have entitled it to univer? sal confidence. Nothing can ever shake Its repu? tation, for lt ls based on the individual experien? ces of tens of thousands of witnesses, embracing prominent and well known citizens of every pro? fession, occupation and class.^There ls,not a cit}, town or settlement in the United States where lt ts not a medicinal staple. No druggist or general dealer would consider his stock complete without lt, and the returns of the Internal revenue depart? ment show that Its sales exceed those of any other proprietary restoratives manufactured on this side of the Atlantic. The beneficial results derived during a long series of years from the use of Hosteler's Bitters, have convinced the whole community that the only true way to restore to health a broken down or debilitated system, or to put the human body on Us defence when ex? posed to unwholesome Influences, ls to Invigorate, regulate and puri?j lt at one and the same time. may27-6DAC MANHOOD.-A MEDICAL ESSAY on the Cause and Cure of DecUne In Premature Man, the treatment of Nervous and Physical De? bility.
