L033 OF THE BRITISH BARE CBU30E. OF
TCRK'S ISLAND.-The British bark Crusoe. 414
tons, Captain Mix, left Sr. Hele:?;- 'S. C., bar oq
tbe 19th of October fbr Queeutt/iwn. .ireland,
with a cargo of about sno-tons phosphates, taken
at BaU River, S. C., at th? works of the Oak Point
Mining Company. On the 20th instant, in th i
Golf .stream, had much sea. and on Friday, the
21st, the wind was a* northeast, rainy, and very
boisterous, the vessel being under short canvas.
At seven P. M. the w.nd had Increased, and lt-be
came-dangerous to continue running,' the"bea
coming quRe.aver the bark; endeavored to le-hen
the canvass, ^a?aia part was got In and the rest
blown away. Then ho ve her to ander bare poles,
the wind blowing a hurricane from northeast,
carrying away canvas from the gaskets, accom?
panied by a terrible eros- sea. washing away
boats, ladders, and everything moveable, 'Hiing
L?r with water, bo'h pumps contlnual'y going,
and the main rigging became much slacked. The
' bajk at this time was supposed to be ta latitude-!
82.30, longitude 76. The blow continued to the
22d.?,whea lt aba'ed at 4 A. M. It was then diffi?
cult to get .sufficient canvas on the vessel to
steady her.- At noon on the 22d, was in latitude
32.33, longitude 77.40, by observation. Concluded
to make the nearest port. Op the 23d. was work?
ing-to the westward, the vessel having quite a
list. On the 25th had strong northeast winds;
distant from Charleston about forty miles, and
towards evening was In seven fathoms of water.
Saw Ball's Island light, and ran down the coast
for Charleston harbor. After proceeding a few
miles, the water suddenly shoaled, when the bark
was hauled off, but struck, - and remained two
hours, striking heavily, bnt came off, on tr?e flow
ofjtne tide. Ran down to Charleston harbor,
making the lights, and anchoring near them.
In tbe night received a Charleston pilot, and sent.j
to thecityfor a steamer to tow the vessel ta. No
steamer was" aentt when the captain came to the
city, procured a steamer, and returned to the
bark. The pomps had been going constantly
from the Time of the blow; bat the leak had so
much Increased that at this time t hf xe was five
feet of water', Bi tte hold. The vessel was labor?
ing very much wittfthe sea.- A gang of men Uti:
was sent down were unable to get on boar?. Suc?
ceeded in'get ting a hawser to 'the steamer, when
the berk supped hep (mata and started, for port.
When at-or near the bar, th? vessel took the bot?
tom and ..'commenced sttlklag heavily, and be?
came on manageable. All hands on board de?
manded to be taken off, which was done, and the
vessel abandoned, the officers and crew reaching
the city on Monday sight ta the steamer Pilot
_COVSTZJrG THE VOTES.
h. ? R&vr Rad Tedious Operation-Only
Two Wards Completed.
, - "-5 C?* i
TU? election commissioners lor Charleston
Codhty, Messrs. Montgomery, Bennett and E. W.
M. Mackey, met in the Court-room at 9 o'clock
yesterday morning fer the purpose of counting
the votes cast on Wednesday last.:
The Bowen party was represented by Messrs^
Joan L. Little, w. H. Birnie and Joseph Quai li,
and the Beform party by Messrs. H. E. Young, G.
W. Dingle and C. A. Bnrckmyer. The commis?
sioners themselves, we suppose, were considered,
i a sufficient guard for the De Large party.
The United States deputy marshals de?
manded to oe present while the count
I was going on, and their demand was re?
fused by Commissioner Mackey, who decuned to
adm it them until he had examined the law on the
subject. This did not suit the deputy marshals,,
who already knew what their duties were, and
soon afterward a communication was'received
from the Unite 1 States District Attorney, giving
-notice that a motion would be made fora mon
damns to compel the commissioners to admit the
.inspectors of elections appointed by Judge Bond.
The trouble then blew over, and the Inspectors
were admitted.
The box containing the votes polled in Ward l
was" first taken in hand, the commissioners and
talley-keepers being closely watched by both
Bowenltes and Reformers. For the State Senate
Ed win Bates leads the ticket with a majority of
219 over Mlshaw and 311 over R. H. Cain. Al?
though the Scott party have a majority on the
Governor ticket, lr will be seen that our Represen?
tatives, owing to the spliting among the Rad?
icals, are among the ?re: on the list, and
.only three cr four of the Bowen ticket come
up with them. The count of this ward
was not concluded until late m the afternoon,
and Ward 2 was not disposed of until late at
night. At the rate at which the commissioners
are now moving, it is doubtful whether the 21.0N)
votes cast in the county can be counted out m
even the full ten days allowed by law. The result
in the city ought to be known by Friday at the
latest.
The result of the count yesterday is shown Li
the accompanying ta'de. In

The Reform majority ts ss, the voting standing 1

In this ward was 73.-The highest vote in the

.(Radical/by 151 votes; and for-the State Senate,
Edwin Bate.-? (Reform) beats Mlshaw (dead) by 246 '
votes, and R. H. Cain (Radical) by 377 votes. The
Reform candidates tor the Legislature run pretty '
evenly, Messrs. Melcher* and O'Neill polling the '
highest vote. It is a noteworthy fact that m this

Bowen ticket. j*

In this ward the Scott majority ls 33 votes. Two ,

Among the many public "institutions of
Charleston-which, by'the way, isode of ; the
most generous of elites m her care of the poor
there are probably nona with which the commu?
nity are so little acquainted as with "The Old
Folks' Home." Perhaps its situation is unfavo?
rable to a cheerful investigation of charitable
subjects, for lt happens to be located at the end
of that somewhat unpopular, drive known as "Pot?
ter's Field;" but once there, "yon find a not in?
commodious two-story wooden hotwe, with com?
fortable outbuildings, an abundance of foliage,
atvl as pretty a patch or river scenery, up and
dcm the'Ashley, as can be found in Sooth Caro?
lina. Th'j premises are familiar to the public by
the nairn; or "The Peat House," but (being fumi?
gated and thoronghly cleansed) they have, since
the war, ?cen used asan asylum for the debris
or humanity-the aged, blind, crazy, Idiotic and.
deformed colored people-whom the war emanci?
pated from the kind care of their masters, and
made objects of public charity.
Entering the gateway, you drive first through
three or four acres of the dead, where graves are
so thickly planted that a child can step from
mound to mound. There are no names, no marks,
nothing but rank undergrowth, fertilized by thou?
sands of corpses, to Indicate the ghostly cha rac:
ter of the spot, save that In one corner are per?
haps a hundred fresh graves, bare and repulsive-,
the work of the Reaper during the last ninety
days-which are waiting for the grass to grow.
Three or four are open, anda little baby coffin,
holding what but a day or two ago was a mere
Spoonful or life, ts laid by one of them; a waif
which has come there without a mourner and will
he burled without a tear. The grave-digger teils
QB that he puts away from thirty to forty of these
nameless beings every month, and receives for his
part of the ceremony one dollar and sixty-two
cents ahead.
But we pass on-by fields thick with vegetable '
life; by clumps of tall trees; by small enclosures
where lie dead Bailors of the naval and commer?
cial marine, and dead soldiers of the army. We
arrive at the "Home" The grounds around lt
ire nicely swept, and- externally. there, ls an air
of comfort. The old sheds which used to stand at
the end of the Ssh market in the city, have under?
done a metamorphosis, and In their hew' dress
find cosy apartments we scarcely recognize our
Did acquaia tances of clam and oyster atmosphere.
\ncjent. negroes, the,shades or nearly a century,
ire sunning themselves ta the door-ways.- Here
s a woman without hands or feet-the victim of
i frost bite. By her side ls a paralytic; and yon
ler a group of incapables-deformed and useless.
Now to the main building. There are t welve or
Ifteen rooms, including the one occupied by Mr.
5. O'Hare, the superintendent of the place, >a kind
ind. apparently excellent executive officer, who
inderstands the management of his people.
Some of the apartments seem, crowded; that
:an't be helped. Look in here, for instance. Four
>eds and as many Inmates. The latter are
rromen. -One sits ona low chair , near her cot,
ind has only'vibrated bet ween, th? two for the
ast ten months-a helpless and hopeless cripple.
Another ls blind; a third epileptic; while the
fourth Isa mere bundle pt humanity, rolled up on
tier bed-a flickering and expiring snuff of life's
Drier candle. In the adjoining room are three blind ,
men. In the hall-way half a dozen are resting on
BI beach, decrepi?, idiotic and harmless. One of
theee ls a girl of twenty, aa brainless and. foolish
i semblance or the haman form divine as" you
iya saw. There are fifty-five all told-a Bad
sight, and only-endurable because you feel that
these poor.^nnfortnuates are under beneficent
:are, which supplies every want, and alleviates,
is far as ls practicable, ail suffering.
. As we prepare to rereaiertbe carriage a canons
toject, half man,-han* animal; with misshapen
>ody, shrivelled limbs, fingers and nails, like
:la ws, cunning, black eyes glistening like a basi?
ls k's, a mouth like a cavern and a voice like a
io wi-a monstrous parody on' haman nature- .
:rawls crab-fashion towards ns, and In its silly,
incoherent way, tries te attract attention. The'
superintendent,'good naturedly, turns bim -this
way and that, to show Wa fearful .condition, and
the creature responds with a series Of yells Which
sound as if sardonio laughter were ringing
through the woods from some demon dwelling In
the shapeless form.
It is a relief to turn to other scenes, and we
look with pleasure while Mr. Geddings, the acting
Mayor, and chairman of the committee on
public Incitations/ who ls our chaperone, points
to the broad fields near by, where such of
these paupers- as ' can work, have produced a
crop. Mr. G. states' that aged and disabled as
ar? many of the.jnmates of the asylum, they have
raised their own vegetables, and. in this respect
supported themselves without a dollar's cost to the
city. Th? thought occurs :Just h?re-ir a body or
crippled old skeletons caa effect such results,
what may not be dono with the large number of
healthy and vigorous peraocs who possess the
public institutions generally. . .
It ls but a little while ago since the city of
Charleston famished dally food to more than'
three thousand paupers. Ought they not to have
yielded some return for this public charity? It
we are correctly informed, the alms houses lu
several of the Northern, and Western States are
made to yield ah annual Income to the treasury
of from eight to twenty thonsand dollars. We of
criar lesion, on the other hand, have paid out as
much as forty thousand dollars a year for the
same purpose, and the money, practically, t?as
been poured down a hole. There ls, aaqaestlon
ably, room for Improvement In this respect, and
certainly a necessity for financial reform. We.
would not abate one jot or tittle of the public
charity, but we would make the capable paupers
esra at least their salt.
THE crrr HOSPITAL.
Another of the public institutions or Charleston,
decidedly worthy or notice, ls the City Hospital,
situated on the corner of Mazy ck and Magazine
streets, aud on the same square with the City
Jail. Formerly, the hospital was located in what
ls known as the "Tucker House," in the north?
eastern part of the city, bat, for various reasons
lt was deemed best-arter the war to establish lt
in a more central place. One wing or the old
"Workhouse" was, therefore, prepared for the
purpose, and here are now to. be found the sick
poor of tlte county. Originally, the trunding was
not adapted te the requirements of such an insti?
tution, but, so to speak, it was "turned inside
out," which secares two stones, with two large
wards on each floor, a number of private rooms
for^pay patient?," apartments for the steward,
the resident physicians, dispensatory, Arc It ls,
however, still Incomplete in its arrangements,
and awaits enlargement and the addition or such
conveniences as baths, and similar appurtenances
for the use of the sick.
On entering the hospital enclosure, the first
point of Interest to be observed is the bakery.
From this place ls supplied the bread eaten at the
several public institutions In the city; that ls to
say, the OrpbanhouBe, Almshouse. Old Folks'
Home, Statlonhouse, Detective office, and House
' or Correction.
During the last Quarter these establishments
consumed 31,138 loaves,weighing one pound each.
The cost to the olty of this bread ls enly rtout
three cents and seven tenths or a cent pefioaf,
and In point of quality lt ls not excelled in the
best hotel of the country. -Formerly the coat of
the bread was six cents a loaf, ao that there ls a
saving of nearly one half., Only two men are em?
ployed in this department, but their system ls
admirable.
.From this point we pass Into the House or Cor?
rection,-where bad people crack rocks for a
living; but there ls Just now little to interest one
here save bare wads-the Inmates being few
and far between-and we -move on te the hospi?
tal department. A short flight of stairs carries
us to the male ward-a large, well-ventilated L
shaped apartment-oae portion of which is devo?
ted to the sick sailors. Many of the beds are oe
cnine^iUnd' thWe" ls fi? lack^ofWe^' 1

head to foot.
We miss but two things from this ward

The colored ward ia m a olean and whole

wretchedness among the patients which ls I

more intense, and their natures less elastic

THE CHAPMAN SISTERS.-The secoud appe
ance or these deservedly- popular artistes
Charleston la announced for next Monday ni{
the 3 ist instant, the engagement lasting for
week. In every portion of the South-these cha
lng sisters have electrified their audiences, i
captivated the senses of their hearers In the
or burlesque, their last year's experience
Charleston, which was most gratifying, hav
been but a repetition or the reception extern
them wherever they performed. The supp
given them this season will consist of a tnoroug
organized sr eek company, fresh from the boa
Of Northern theatres, and mouldel Into that st;
or perfection acquired only by continued service
gether under one management.- ' -
ta MMAET WARNER," at...tb? Academy of Mu
last night, was highly enjoyed by a large and ;
preclatlve audience. "Mary Warner" ls a nt
romantic-drama, by. Tom Taylor, never befi
acted m this city. It waa t he sensation m Londi
Jost as "Our American Cousin," by the sa
author, .was lor years on both sides or the Atli
tlc. The plot or the play ls well conceived, full
surprises, plenty or action, and replete with d
matic scenes and interesting situations, yet,
the same time, all through perfectly ( though
may also say palnmily) natural. Bu: natural
ls the story, the acting of the chief char?cti
was still more so. The r&le of Mary Wan
(Laura Keene) was tragic, and one-that show
-to their best advantage all the genius and tale
or the accomplls?e 1 artist. We have so oft
spoken of the splendid oCtlrlg or Miss Keene,
her deep, whole-souled earnestness, her inlnii
ble naturalness, her fine action, and her clej
perfect enunciation, that lt ls unnecessary to ?
peat lt here. We wouUlstraply say that we nev
have seen better actiug on the Charleston sta
than we Baw last night.
Mr. S. H. Hubbard, as George Warner, at on
won Ute hearts or all the ladles. The oharact
was well sustained all through. Mr. W. J. Ht
lej, as Bob Levitt, had a very difficult character
personate, and acquitted himself very han
soraely, and to th?-satisfaction of all preset
Tollltt ls a flrstrate specimen both of Cockn
and "Bobble." The character suits Mr. Kenne?
admirably. Our theatre-going readers, doul
les?, remember Mr. Kennedy from last winte
when he won the favor of his audiences by ti
happy rendition of whatever character he pc
sonated. He afforded the merrily disposed a va
deal of amusement, as the pompous, conseque
tlaL chattering, cowardly Sergeant of Polle
OThjca he acted tq the very life, dropping his h
all over the stage.
Miss Addle Hubbard, a) Milly Riggs, acted h
part well and faithfully, winning the plaudits i
spectators from first to" last. Her dress an
bearing were perfectly-true to nature.
In ract, every men&er br the cast did well, an
we are greatly mistaken if a second performant
of misplay ("Mary Warner") will not secure
much larger house than was there last night, w
cancertatnly recommend it, and would assui
our readers that they lose a treat if they neglec
an opportunity of going to see "Mary Warner.

NERVOUS HEADACHE, LIVER
COMPLAINT, Ac, Ac- The Brain being the most
delicate and sensitive of all our organs, ls neces?
sarily more or less afleoted by all our bodily ail?
ments. A headache ls often the first symptom or
a'serious disease. If the nervous system ls
affected, there ia always trouble at Its source in
the pericranium. And lt may be here remarked
that as the nervous fibre pervades the entlro
frame, no part or the physical structure can be
affected without the nerves suffering sympatheti
cally. Liver complaint or every type affects the
bnaln. SomeUmss the effect ls stupor, confusion
of ideas, hypochondrias.; sometimes persistent
or periodical headache. In any case, the best
remedy that can be take.i ls PLANTATION BIT
TERS. In headache proceeding from Indigestion
or biliousness, or both, the stomachic and ?ntl
bilious properties of the preparation will soon
relieve the torture by removing the cause, ir the
complaint ls pnrely nervons-in other words, ir lt
has originated In the nervons system, and ls not
the result of sympathy, the Bitters will be
equally efficacious.

^SPREAD THE TRUTH.-SOME
medical men Insist that it' la'undlgnlfled to adver?
tise a remedy, however valuable it may be. Queer
reasoning this. It is like saying that an article
which the world needs should be hidden in a cor?
ner-th at blessings and benefits may be too widely
diffused-that the means or protecting and re?
storing health should be a close monopoly, and
not accessible to au. The argument is bad. It is
worse than that; lt ls inhuman. Suppose HOS?
TETT EE'S STOMACH BI TT?RS-a a absolute Sp??
cifie for dyspepsia, biliousness and nervous debil?
ity-had never been known beyond tte repertoire
ofithe.faculfy, what would have been the' conBe
- quince ? Instead of c uri n g and invigorating mil?
lions, the good effects, of the preparation Wonld
have been confined to a comparative few. There
is the highest authority for saying that light
should not be hld under a basnet; that whatever
ls excellent should be placed as a city on a hill,'
where all men can take cognizance of lt. It ls
upon this principle that the Bitters have been
advertised, and continue to be advertised, lh
every newspaper of any prominence In the w;est
ern hemisphere, and that the spontaneous testi?
monials In its favor have been translated into an
written languages. Thousands enjoy perfect
health to-day who would be languishing on beds
of sickness If the newspapers had not spread the
truth with regard lo thia unequalled invlgorant
and conecttve. far and wide!' Suppose profit has
been reaped fronf this publicity. Is that any ar?
gument against lt ? H the public health has been
protected; if lives have been saved; if the feeble
have been strengthened and the sick restored,
great good has been accomplishrd; and who so
mean as to grudge ta exertions thus directed their
fair reward? oct23-?D4C
