"THE CRAB-VENDERS m CHARLESTON" is E the title oi a sketch In the last number of the Illustrated News, showing.two colored women p bearing trays filled with crabs. In referring si to the sketch, the News says, that lt was taken v, by the artist while passing through Meeting si street, "in Charleston, to the Battery, o ??Aunty'-for bjMacb^Tamlllar.jihrase ls the si old colored woman of the South ordinarily b addressed-has, in all their 'sedac ti ve beau- n ty,'if such a; te rm maybe addressed to the a members of the genus Cancer, spread her p boiled soft shell arabs, decorated with sea- o weed/oa a wooden, tray. When everything is t! properly prepared^ the olaVwoman, in a low tl and peculiarly sweet voice, which, however n ia heard at a considerable distance, informs si Ute lovers of crustacean fish that-'Heah's e year sof shell crabs, only a penny apiece, ti Dey's j ns' de ting; e bery one of dem pure beau- a ties, sab.' The colored people are great lovers o offish, and aunty's patrons are mostly from ti her own people It is a not uncommon thing to pass in the evening colored men and women lt near the stands of venders,. Industriously at tl work demolishing the crabs-which to tell s the truth, are very toothsome-and, between o mouthfuls, laughing their longest and loudest/ a ^ some joke which one of their number has b ottered." b AN EARTHQUAKE.-Tue shock of aa < ?ruake was felt at the South Carolina Rai offices on Saturday. It is hard to say Oils may not mean, as the shocking occur 3eems to have been confined to the one mentioned. Any how, this sort ofreorgs tion must be more startling than pleasani THE BARNWELL RAILROAD.-The Jo [earns that iron enough to lay sixty mi: track has been purchased for this road, a ls now on its way. As soon as the crops aid by the necessary bands will be obta md there ls every reason to believe tha portion from Barnwell to Blackville wi completed by November, when it will be i ?d right 'forward to Millen..

THE Sara WARD MEETING AND .THE MIS* LRY RECORD.-A few days since THE K rave a brief sketch of a meeting of the I ?ls of the Sixth ward, at which Coll? Clark, L. J. Taylor, a colored employee ot Customhouse, and Congressman Bowen sp ?nd L. J. Taylor was very severe in his narks about DeLarge and Delaney, whor marged with attempting to organize a coli nan's party. In the last issue of the Missl .y Record, Daddy Cain charges that the m ng was a packed one, stating that the pi lent did not issue the call for a meeting i ;wo o'clock in the afternoon, when he k; bat the call would not reach the people nembers of the ward, until too late to atti n the meantime, it had been arranged to h his meeting, and all of Mr. Bowen's preten rlends were secretly Invited to be pref rom Wards Two and Seven. Collector Cl ind ali the Customhouse men were there, t was, in fact, a plain, premeditated Bo\ neeting. Resolutions were prepared by sc volte man, that no one should speak exci ng those called on by the club. It was cte: inderstood that no one should speak towen men, and they carried it out to the er, except allowing DeLarge to be heard .Indicating himself from the contempt ihargeB made against him by a man nae naylor, who was evidently put forward fort >urpose. In concluding his remarks, Daddy Cain wa he men who prepared this meeting to ore bat sncb a course will damage them more tl inything else._ CHARLESTON HARBOR-REMOVAL OF OBSTR .TONS IN TOWN CREEK.-The readers of T JEWS have already been Informed by telegrs if an appropriation ot. $7500, made by l Jnited States Senate to remove the obstr ions in Town Creek, near this city, and a oi a survey of this harbor. From the onie iroceedings of the Senate in regard to I tarbor appropriation bili, we learn furtt lartlculars. When Senator Sawyer I reduced the resolution for removing t instructions in Town Creek, he said : "Toi "reek ls a small creek that makes into Coop liver about two miles above Charleston. 8 the'site on which the old ship John Adai vas built. The obstructions consist of an < u-y-dock and one or two vessels which wc tunk there at the close of the rebellion. Th ire a serious obstruction to the navigation bis stream, on the banks of which are wharv ised for loading the ? deposits of phosphate [me, on board of vessels sailing for foreb. nd domestic ports. It is desired to remo bese obstructions. With a view to that en ome time in the autumn of last year a surve; rdered by the Seoretary of War, was mad nd the estimates of $7500 were made as suf lent to remove these obstructions." M 'handler and others opposed the resolutio bis brought Senator Sawyer to his feet. B bowed that the bill appropriated $940,600 fi lew England, New York, Pennsylvania an ?elaware; the Northwest properly so call? 2,087,000; and the rest o? the country alt? ether about three hundred thousand dollar bat the whole South bad only $160,000, ot fa total appropriation of $3,518,000; and undi hese circumstances be asked If it was just "t eslst thia trifling appropriation for the bartx f Charleston ? The new commerce that ht dst been developed there wi" be largely li reasedand facilitated In its :ourse by the e: enditare of this trifle." The resolution w? [nally agreed to by a vote of twenty-seven I ilneteen. Hr. Sawyer then moved as a further am?ne nent, to insert in the bili "ac Charleston ha: .or, South Carolina,'' saying "that this am?ne nene made no appropriation. It ls merely t ?ring Charleston harbor within the list In th eneral provision for surveys made In th econd section." The amendment was agree o. _ THE REGATTA SATURDAY. AFTERNOON. - Ther ras quite a large crowd of ladies, gentleme nd children assembled on the Battery, Satin lay afternoon, to witness the oar boat regatta rhlle equally as many were aboard of tb rarious boats which flitted gally from pom o point, while awaiting the commencement c be race. The course, one mile, was from Cbisolm' OB to a point off the Battery Bathing-bouse aarked by tbe yacht Louly, on board of wbicl rere the terminal Judges, Messrs. Wilmot G ieSaussure, L. D.*DeSaussure, Frank Porcbe nd George Bryan. The starting Judges wert tesara. Lawrence Chisholm and Charle [olmes. For the race, the four-oared boatf .Belle," eighteen feet long; "Cyrilla," nine jen feet long;'"Ariel," seventeen feet long, nd the "Sonia," twenty-two feet long, wer? ntered. The crews of the boats are as named "Belle"-B. Alston, coxswain; W. . Bmith, Tingle Smith, H. B. Bull and N. Parker. "Cyrilla"-Dr. H. DeSaussure, coxswain; W. ?eSaussure, Bobert Means, J. DeSaussure and [. A DeSaussure. "Ariel"-H. A. Smith, coxswain; W. Le esne, DeSaussure Bull, George S. Holmes and ?borles Deas. "Soula"-W. A Pringle, coxswain; A L. 'ates, George C. Gaillard. H. B. Simons and Idward Holmes. Early In the afternoon and up to some minutes ast 6 o'clock-the hour appointed for the tart-there was a high wind and rough water, ?hieb, delayed the boatmen in getting Into po? lt ion. However, a few minutes before 7 'clock they were In Une, the signal for the tart was given, and off the boats dashed. They ad not pulled many yards before the race was isolved into a contest between the "Belle" nd the "Cyrilla"-the former was in the lead, robably lour boat lengths, until within three r four hundred yards of the stake boat. Then le crew of the "Cyrilla" bent themselves to ?elr oars with renewed vigor, and were soon early alongside of their opponents. At this tage the race was very exciting, and bets on ach of tbe boats were freely offered and iken. However, the "Belle" kept tba lead, adjust managed to pass the stake boat ahead f the "Cyrilla." The "Ariel"' came next, and ie "So?lai' (the largest boat of ali) last. Owing to the number of yachts which were tying near the stake boat, and between it and bte Battery, very few of the large crowd as embled on the Battery witnessed the result f the race. We trust that at all races here fter, the judges will see that all yachts and oats lay on the James Island side o? the stake oat. Tte boats will probably race again shortly. NIGHT HIDEOUS.-A party of drunken ne groes sang Shoo Fly! and drank parap water, In Rutledge avenue, from about midnight to one o'clock oe Sunday morning. Does the Civil Rights Bill require the police to ailow noisy drunkards to make night hideous, drink fountains dry. and disturb tue slumbers! of la offensive citizens ? Why is this thus ? MOONLIGHT EXCURSION.-The weather per? mitting, the members of the Freundschaits bmd will have a graud moonlight excursion on the steamer Emilie to-night. She will leave Accommodation wharf at 8 o'clock precisely. There will be no-tickets sold at the wharf. The excursions of the Freundschaftsbund are al? ways enjoyable affairs, and we doubt not-that this one will he equally so. CRUMBS.-A school with two teachers has beea organized in the county jail for the pris? oners. Colonel Low, engineer ot the Blue Ridge Railroad, has been ia this city for a day or two. General Butler was in Columbia on Satur? day. Laura Keene and company are delighting the good people of St. Paul, Mluaesota. Annie Abrahams, colored,.was seat to jail Saturday morning for a term of ten days, un? der the vagrant law. During a recent debate in the United States Senate a senator desired to know if.Beaufort was a port. Julia Johnson was sent to Jail Saturday for a term of twenty days, for immoral behavior on Beaufain street There are at present sixty-eight prisoners in the county jail, of whom a large portion are children, sent there for petty theft or va? grancy. On Saturday Jeffrey Dayes, charged with stealing spoons and a set of harness, was sen? tenced to a term of thirty days in jail by Trial Justice Magrath. Samuel A.' King, the well-known aeronaut who ascended here from the Citadel Greenj made a short voyage from Buffalo on the "Fourth." A Chicago paper, speaking of hereditary peculiarities, says that there was In South Car? olina a dog which had accidentally lost its tail and transmitted the defect to its descendants for three or four generations. John McPherson, arrested for assaulting Stepney Riley with a horsewhip, at the South Carolina depot, hos been sentenced by Trial Justice J. G. Mackey to pay a fine of $50, or remain thirty days In jail. An appeal from the decision was entered. We learn from toe Abbeville Press that Colonel D. Wyatt Aiken has recently sold some 400 acres of his Coronaca place to Mr, Law, of Darlington, at $17 50 per acre. The Press also states that Mr. I. D. Gaillard has sold his valuable plantation near White Hall, in that county, to a Northern firm, for $15,000, The "Manner Verein," composed of three hundred members, now existing under the name and title of "Catholic Politic Casino," lu Vienna, District Mariahllp, Austria, have sent a vote of thanks to the Congressmen who se cured the appropriation of $20,000 to enable the Sisters of Our Lady of Mercy to rebuild their Orphan Asylum, which was destroyed at the bombardment of Charleston in 1862.

Row ONA CAROLINA PLANTATION.-The Augus ta Chronicle says that on Friday morning difficulty occurred on the plantation of Mrs. R. J. Rambo, situated in Edgefleld County, South Carolina, about four miles from ? ugusta. It appears that early yesterday morning Mr. William Pool, the superintendent of the plan? tation, went into the field and reproved the negroes for the. slow manner in which they had been working, and threatened to separate them ii they did not Improve. One of the negroes addressed returned a very short an? swer, which elicited a curslng?irom the super? intendent. Three of the men then quit the field and went to Hamburg. In a few hours Samuel Spencer, the colored constable of | Edgefleld, came to the plantation for the pur? pose, he said, of arresting Mr. Pool to answer a charge made against him by one of the neg? roes ; but Mr. Pool refused to be arrested by the sable official, and the latter returned to Hamburg for relnlorcements. Soon after he bad left Mr. Pool went to Hamburg and gave himself up. The case was to have come up before Prince Rivers. THE CITY PROPERTY-SOME OP rr TO BE SOLD TO-DAY.-For several weeks past there has been an advertisement in our columns announcing that Sheriff Mackey, would by virtue of an execution in the case of the exe? cutors of George Gibbon vs. the City Council, sell the Battery, tbe Artesian Well, the lot, and the buildings thereon, at the northeast corner of Calhoun and King streets. Also, all that lot of land situated at the east end of Pinckney street, now under lease, known as the "Ferry Slip.1' Also, all that lot of land, situated on the east end of Vendue Range, and known as the "Ferry Slip." Also, all that wharf or wood yard, situated at the west end of Lynch street. Also, all those lots of land covered by water, situated at the west end of Broad street. Also, all that lot of land, situ? ated at tbe foot of King street, and next west ol 'White Point Garden. When the advertise? ment first appeared only the Battery, the Arte? sian Well and the property at the corner of King and Calhoun streets were offered for sale. Then City Attorney Corbin secured fro m Associate Justice Willard an injunction res? training Sheriff Mackey until the filing of the answer of the counsel of the executors, from Beling these pieces of property, on the ground that they were bought by the City Council, and dedicated to the use of the public, and so used for many years. The advertisement was then withdrawn ; but, in a day or two, the aforesaid answer was filed, and ?the advertisement rein? serted, this time offering for sale the "Ferry Slips" and the other property above mention? ed also, all to be sold on the 5th of July. Later, by mutual consent of the counsel for both sides, the sale was postponed until the 11th (to-day.) On Friday last, as stated by THE NEWS, City Attorney Corbin, In behalf of the City Council, moved before Judge Willard that the Injunction heretofore granted by him restraining Sheriff Mackey from selling the aforesaid property be continued la force. Messrs Phillips and Campbell, counsel for the executors, after argument, agreed to withdraw the levy, but announced that, although they would not Insist on the sale of the property at the time advertised, they would hereafter re? new the levy. Major Corbin then withdrew his motion to continue the Injunction. However, last night a note was sent to THE NBWS office requesting us to strike out of the advertisement the notice of the sale of the Battery, the Artesian Well, and the property at the corner of King and Calhoun streets. As the advertisement now stands, and according to the agreement made by the counsel, post? poning the sale until the 11th, all of the re? maining pieces of property advertised will be jold to-day ; the City Attorney, we learn ad? mitting the right of the executors to levy up? on and sell all these pieces of property, as they were not "dedicated to public use."
