Bird was elected corresponding secretary, vice Mr. John H. Averill, who resigned because of his re? moval out of the ward from which he had been ?sent as a delegate to the Central Club. "DATS OF YORE; OR SHADOWS OF THE PAST." This is the title of a budget of quaint and cu? rious reminiscences of Charleston, Its people and surrounding?, by "The Ancient Lady," whose faithful memory and ready pen are now at rest forever. The pamphlet, which has just been issued from the press ol Mr. W. G. Ma zyck, is full of interest to Charlestonlans, and can be bad at all the city book stores. ROBBERIES.-A white sailor, named Charles Bentlige, was robbed of $170 Saturday night, while at a house lu Elliott street. The female occupants and the owner of the house have been arrested and bailed to appear for trial. A newsboy, named Hayes, was robbed of $46 by a colored man Saturday night, while on the Northeastern Railroad train bound for the city. The offender was arrested by Officer Hernan? dez, brought to the city, and lodged in the .Guardhouse. THE FUNERAL SERVICES of Mr. Henry Lar .comb, late president of the United Fire Com? pany, were held at St. Joseph's Catholic Churchj Saturday, and were attended by a large concourse of firemen and citizen friends. His remains were interred lu St. Patrick's churchyard. * Mr. Larcomb being an employee of the Cus? tomhouse, the flags of that building were dis? played at half-mast Saturday, as a mark of re? spect to his memory. THE BOWEN-DELARGE WAR-CONTESTS OF THE FACTIONS-THE TWO CONVENTIONS.-The contest between the supporters of Bowen and DeLarge Increases as the day lor the de? cisive battle approaches. The adherents of both parties are hopeful, and are willing "to I do or die" for their leaders, who will do any amount of suffering for them In Washington at a yearly expense to the United States of $5000 per annum. The Congressional aspirants have caused a .hopeless spilt In the ranks or the Radicals of 'the First District. The partisans refuse to .make peace-even the olly tongue ot young Moses Is disregarded; flattery, threats, com? promises-all fail to lessen the gulf between them. Both Daddy Cain, who wishes the .nomination for the State Senate, and W. H. Ml .shaw, who aspires for the same position, claim to be the legal chairman of Charleston Coun? ty-the former supports the claims of DsLarge for Congress, and the latter of "Bowen. A short time ago each chairman directed meet? ings to be held on the 5th of this month to .elect delegates to meet in convention this af? ternoon, to make nominations for a school commissioner, three county commissioners, a Judge of probate, a senator and eighteen representatives. Meetings were held at the tftue appointed in all of the wards of this city, St. Andrew's Parish, St. -James Santee, St. James Goose Creek, St, John's Berkeley, St. Thomas, St Denis, St. John's Colleton, Christ Churc'.t Parish and St. Stephen's. In Wards 1 3, 5 and 6, at St. Andrew's, St. James Goose Creek and St. John's Colleton, the factions which met together split, and each elected de? legates. A few days af^er this, Daddy Cain promul? gated a call to the "various Republican voters of Charleston County," to hold an election at a few designated points in the county, for dele? gates to a convention to meet at the Military Hall, on the.29th of this mouth. He states that bis reasons for making the call are, first, that he has the right to do so as he has been recently recognized by the Republican State, executive committee as the duly elected chair? man of the county; second, that "several irreg? ular meetings were held In the county, and so called delegates elected, under the call and direction of W. H. Mlshaw, the pretended county chairman;" third, that "at many of these meetings thus called and presided over by him (Mishaw) numerous bands of armed men participated In voting, although not voters In the precincts In which the meetings were, held, and thereqy a lull and free expression of the choice of the people was prevented;" and fourth, that many of the voters of the sev? eral preclacts dislgnated by him (Cain) de? manded another election, in order that they T?lght have, untrammelled, an opportunity of expressing their wishes in the matter of send? ing delegates. This proclamation of Cain's raised a perfect storm of Indignation among the adherents c;' the Bowen-Mishaw faction. They retort that Xhe Cain-DeLarge adherents used pistols, and prevented men opposed to them from attend? ing some of their meeting.-. They also assert that Cain, ia his call, only provides for meet? ings at precincts wiiere mea opposed to him were elected as delegates. Cain considers the Customhouse as the headquarters of his oppo? nents, and in the Missionary Record writes some of the most savage ot editorials against those employed there. The Bowen and Mishaw convention will .meet lu the Military Hall, at five o'clock this .afternoon. They claim to have the larger num? ber of duly elected delegates, and will, of -course, put out a ticket for couu.y officers, ll an orderly meeting can be secured. But this i seems impossible, when it ls remembered that there are a large number of contesti ng dele? gates, and that there ls much llMeehng be? tween the iactlons, so much so that in several Instances the utmost efforts of their leaders had to be exerted to prevent the spilling of blood. However, whether or not the conven? tion of to-day puts forth a ticket, it will -shortly, as also wUl Cain's convention on the fatter part oMhls month. EAST BAT. The Proposed Increase of Width-Deci? sion of the Committees. For many years past there has been consid? erable discussion about the propriety of widen? ing East Bay street, between Market and Hasel streets. Numerous committees were appointed to make some arrangement with the property owuers, whose ??cid would have to be appropri? ated to obtain the width of street desired, but until Friday last no decision was reached. During all of the time these negotiations were pending, some of the property owners desired to rebuild but refrained, thinking that the question would soon be decided one way or another. At last, believing that nothing would be done in the matter, they gave notice that they would rebuild upon the old line. This warning acted as a spur upon the council. The city engineer, Mr. Barbot, auder instruc? tions prepared an excellent map, showing the locality, and the advantages to be gained by the proposed Increase of width. A committee, consisting ol Messrs. Moroso, Shrewsbury and Caulfield, was appointed by the Council to confer with Messrs. Oakes, Enauff and Selg nious, the committee appointed by the prop? erty owners. After several consultations, the joint com? mittee, on .Friday last, resolved to allow the following valuation upon the laud required tor the contemplated improvement, the said valuation being based not only upon the assessed, but the market value of each lot lu j question : On the east side of East Bay-lot belonging to the estate of the late C. C. Plnckney, no damage to be allowed, nor will any assess I ments for improvements be made upon it; lots I of E. Bull and James Jeffords, thirty cents per square fool; lots of J. M. Carson and James Marsh, twenty cents per square foot; lot ol Mrs. Thompson, forty-five cents per square foot; lots of Theodore Wagner, one at fifteen cents, and the others at ten cents per square foot. On the west side-lot belonging to the estate of C. C. Pinckney, extending from Market to Guignard street, twenty-five cents per square foot; all of the other lot3 ex-1 tending from Guignard to Hasel street, ten cents Der square foot. The quantity of land to be appropriated Is 17,793 square feet, 12,391 on the east, and 5402 on the west side, the average rated value of which is twenty-five cents per square foot, makins the value of the whole $4488. The total cost of the Improve? ment, lt is anticipated, will be, Including value of lands appropriated, $10,000. The commit? tee also decided to assess the lands they valued for any improvements. This assessment, lt ls thought, will almost, if not entirely, cover the expense of the Improvement. As is generally known, the road-way of that portion of East Bay which it is proposed to widen is very narrow. At one part, near Pinckney street, lt ls not wide enough to per? mit the passage, at the same time, of two drays loaded with cotton. The proposed width will be sixty feet from building to building, with a roadway of forty feet. If the Improve? ment be made, the buildings at the southeast corner ol Hasel and East Bay streets will have to be removed. The committee did not value these, but referred the whole matter to the City Council committee on buildings and lands. It is thought that the City Council will en? dorse the action of the Joint committee, and that the work will be commenced at an early day. UNION INSURANCE COIIPANV OF SAN- FRAN? CISCO, CALIFORNIA.- We Invite attention to the advertisement of this company In another column of our present issue. They have com? plied with all the requirements of our Statu laws respecting Insurance companies of other States. Their capital ls three-quarters of a million and their assets over one million of dollars, gold valuation. In addition to this ample security to the holders ot the policies ot this company, lt ls provided lu the constitu? tion ot tbe State of California, that all stock? holders shall be held individually liable to the full extent of their means for the debts of the corporation In which they hold shares. So that there ls every reason to place full confi? dence lu the ability of the company to meet their obligations, more especially as their pla n ot doing business is to avoid the very hazard? ous and unprofitable risks, and confine them? selves to those which experience has taught are less perilous and more remunerative. The board of reference in New York is composed of some of the most respectable and wealthy merchants ofthat city. AU losses promptly ad? justed and paid at the company's branch office, No. 114 Broadway, New York, which is under the management of Messrs. Skeels, Bowers & Boughton. Messrs. William B. Heriot & Co. are the agents of the company for this city, and are prepared to issue policies at roasoaab le rates of premium. INSTALLATION OF A PASTOR.-The Presby? tery of South Carolina met lu the Presbyte? rian Church of Abbeville on Friday morning last, for the purpose of ordaining the Rev. Ja?. L. Martin, and Installing hltu pastor of the Abbeville church. After a trial sermon from the candidate, he was examined by the Pres? bytery. The examination was contiuued tor two and a hali hours, aud embraced nearly the entire course ot theological study, as it ls taught lu the seminary at Columbia. S. C. The candidate passed the ordeal ino?t successfully. At night, after a sermon from Rev. John Mc Lees, the Rev. J. O. Lindsay delivered the charge to the minister, and Rev. R. A. Morse the charge to the people. The following day Mr. Lewis W. Perkins was ordained a deacon In the church. RICE THIEVES.-A plantation on this side ot the Savannah River during the harvesting of | the rice crop, a few days ago, was considera? bly excited over the discovery of a systematic robbery of the cereal. The pla? of the colored thieves was to cut about four stacks and de? posit them iu bigs over the fields, gathering their plunder whenever opportunities offered, i We understand that the culprits were detect? ed and arrested, aud given the alternative of working forty days for uo wages, or paying the ralae of the missing rice. Which they ac? cepted, we did no learn. NEW RICE AT SAVANNAH.-The Republican of Saturday, the 10th. says : "The first arrival of the new" crop of rough rice was received hy? the Lower Mill yesterday afternoon, in the shape of 454 bushels from Mr. J. W. McAlpin's plantation, (the Hermitage,) on the Savannah River, being the first instalment of his crop, and the work of pounding will commence on Monday next. Tue cereal ls of superior white quality, and weighs forty-two pounds to the bushel, with one per cent, of volunteer." SEA ISLAND COTTON AT SAVANNAH.-The Morning News of Saturday last says : "Messrs. F. & M. Farley, of this city, are in receipt of sea island cotton, shipped them from the extreme western portion of Escambia County, Florida, within a short distance from Mobile. It was sent to Pensacola, thence to Montgomery, and thence to Savannah, and is said to be the first bale of cotton ever coming from that sec? tion. It was shipped by B. F. Simmons, Esq!, of Pensacola. " "THE CA.THEBRA.E" J.T STRAS B O URO. Tue lovers of architectural beauty and cathe dial history must have been considerably af fected when the newa came, a few days ago, that the "Cathedral at Strasbourg waa partial ly destroyed," an<3 that the bombs of tha Prussians had demolished, iu so short a time, what it required the labor and skill of years to produce. The Town of Strasbourg itself, ex? cept for its great antiquity (and pershaps, I should say, for being tho spot whore Boger de Lele first suug bis famous eong,) is generaly uninteresting; stands In a very flat country about two miles from the left bank of the Rhine, is irregularly built, and, with some few exceptions, the etreets are intolerably crooked and narrow. Something of a creek, which is called appropriately the III, and ap? pears decidedly eo, runs through the town, and is bridged over in about fifty places. In 1681 Austria ceded the town to Louis XIV, who directed bis attention to strengthening the then existing fortifications. The great, and in fact the only point; of interest in Strasbourg, is the Cathedral of "Notre Dame," not so 1 arge as its name-sake in Paris, but decidedly more magnificent-a beautiful specimen of. the Gothic style, commenced iu 1015, and com? pleted in 1439. Nothing can exceed the rich? ness of its western fiont; before the admiring eyes of the stranger is a vast pile of solid storJe, so delicately carved that a wonder arises in the spectators mind how so fragile and lace-like a piece cf work can withstand the wiuda of heaveu. Every detail is wrought with marvellous perfection, every ornament a gem of art. Tbis front is divided into three compartments by elaborately carved buttresses. Across these, horizontal bauds divide the front of the building into three stories; the lower contains three doorways, the second 'Tosa windows" of stained glass some forty-eight feet in diameter. Enclosed in canopied openings are three equestrian statues of Clovis, Dagobert and Rudolph of Haps? burg. A fourth opening ts unoccupied, (set apart probably for Napoleon. The third and upper portion contains soma superb painted windows. From the northernmost corner rises the cel?brale! to .ver and spiro, ascend? ing co a height of f our hundred and sixty-six feet above the pavement, richly ornameuCed from the base until it seoras almost to mingle its spires with the clou ls. Ou entering the Cathedral, the vastness and majesty of the interior cannot fail to strike the beholder wi'.h awe. The nave extending nearly three hun? dred and fifty-seven feet, and roofed over seventy-nine feet from tho marble floor. The magnificent sculptured choir, niue monster pillars separating the navo trom the aisles, while streams of rosy, mellow light flow from the many staiued windows, (each a master? piece of artistic talent.) aod add tn an indes? cribable manner to the solemnity of the in? terior. A pulpit of stone, c msidcred the most beautiful specimen of the ktud in the world, afford*. b3iutic3 enough for a day's study. In the south transept is found tin great curios .ly of Strasbourg, the world renowned clock, con? structed in 1571, after the plaa of a cert tin mathematician, one "Dasypodius,"' and per? forming more wonderful feats each hour than half of the clocks in Christendom, (so at least the guide will inform you.) This complicated clock ran well for two hundred years, and then, to th; surprise and disgust or the Strasbourg - ians, suddenly stopped. No one in tte town could remedy its internal disorders, and for fifty years it remained dumb, until a few years since a wntc'imtker undertook to set it again in motion. It is, probably, uow forever sile ac? ed. Among other curiosities of this clock, a cock at one time caine out at intervals nod crew, but, say the good people of Strasbourg, "being twice struck by lightning, the bird only ventured to appear afterwards on holi? days and fetes." It is sad to reflect that this venerable and splendid pile iu being demolished. It suffered much during the French r?volu'ion, and scarcely has it been restored when war again threatens tts destructiou. C. TUE PHILADELPHIA AND CHARLESTON STEAM? SHIP LINE.-The steamships of this Hue are dispatched from each port once a week, and under a new tariff of freights, about twenty percent, below old rates, and are attracting a good business. The Salvor lett Philadelphia on Saturday with a full cargo, and will sall hence on Saturday, 17th, at noon. Phila? delphia receives a large amount of cotton, yaru and domestics; and this line alfords a safe and regular delivery. Mr. William A. Courtenay is agent here; office at Union Wharves. A COLORED MAN SHOT.-On Friday last, in Barnwell County, a colored man, named Hen? ry Hutchinson, was badly shot by another colored man named Henry Black. It appears that Black had hired Hutchinson a mule to ride on to Augusta, and, while there, Hutchin? son pawned the mule. On his return to Barn? well, Black attempted to arrest Hutchinson, who ran, whereupon Black tired, hitting him in the back, and inflicting a severe wound. Hutchinson was committed to Jail io Augusta. The mule was recovered. CL UBS AN?> STARS. -Mary Ann Browne was sent to jail for twenty days for beating James Brown. Mary Crockley for beating Harriet Williams was sentenced ta nay a fine of $2, or go to Jail for twenty days. David Jones was arrested by the detectives for disorderly conduct, and is held for exami? nation. Augustus Tardy was sentenced to twenty days ia Jail ior assaulting a policeman. Thomas Frazer was sent to jail for twenty days for stealing a lot of clothiug from Captain Harvey's schooner. Sarah Dillon alias Eugenie Bowers, a va? grant, was arrested on the charge ol being accessory to larceny, and ls held for examina? tion.

Malarious revers are most prevalent lu the fall. Heavy and unwholesome exhalations then arise from the earth, and the great disparity between the temperature or day and night predisposes the system, enfeebled by the summer heats, to epidemic diseases. The secretive organs, the liver especially, are apt, at this period or the year, to become Inert and sluggish, and all the bodily powers require renovation. The best, Indeed the only protection against the morbid lntluences or the season ls a" wholesome medicated stimulant. Pre-eminent among the restoratives ol this class, and indeed foremost among the remedial and preventive medicines or modern times, stands HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS. Its reputa? tion ls co-extenslve with the Western hemisphere; lt bas been a standard article for twenty years; its sales (an may be ascertained by the revenue returns) are far larger than those of any other proprietary preparation on this continent; and the testimony lu Its favor embraces letters of ap? proval from the most distinguished members of all the learned professions and from well known residents or almost every city lu the Union. These are Its credentials. To stale what lt ls do? ing to prevent and assuage the sufferings or the human family would require more space than can be given to the subject here. The dyspeptic, the bilious, the nervous, the weak and emaciated, the desponding, the broken down, find In its reno? vating and regulating properties a sure and Im? mediate means or relier. It ls a pure vegetable specific; at once safe and potent, and for which the whole materia medica affords no substitute. seplQ-SD&c_ ^AN APPEAL TO THE CITIZENS OF CHARLESTON.-The Niagara Fire Engine Company, No. 8, of Charleston, being desirous of rendering their organization more efficient for the preservation of property from fire, earnestly so? licit the citizens in general to aid the Company In the purchase or a new Engine.
