COLO WEATHER.-At an early hour, yester? day morning, the deep quiet of the -heavens was broken by a most discordant concert, which pro." ceeded from a large flock of wild geese, pursuing their annual migration southward. At their ; seriAi helghtb, they seemed to be engaged in an animated dispute, and. judging from the loud arid exciting nature or their converse, party spirit most be running high at .the North Pole. These are the first harbingers of cold weather tmV season, and we may expect a. frost at an j early date. Spartanbarg was nipped by Cold Jack last week. UtfXTED STATES COURT-HON. GEO. S.

This work was resurr^d yesterday morning, at 9 o'clock, and kept, np, with but a short in? termission, until ll o'clock, last night. No better progress was made than on the preceding day, and the same method of counting was pursued. The number of county canvassers ls entirely in? adequate to the task imposed upon them, and, without the assistance of tho representatives, present from each party, it would be problemati? cal whether the counting could ever be finished. Doable the number would hardly suffice to count the vote for Charleston County within the ten days prescribed by law. The total vote cast in the city for Judge Carpenter thus far amounts to 4281, which gives him a majority over Scott of 242 votes. General Butler runs ahead of Jndge Carpenter hy 60 votes, beating Banaler for Lieutenant-Governor by 316. Ward S, m the election for Mayor iu-No vember last, gave Pillsbury a majority of 201 votes, and now cots down Scott's majority to 106. SOOTH CAROLINA INSTITDTK.--There was no meeting of the Institute last night, the paragraph to that effect in tbe Courier being a mistake. There will, however, be a meeting this evening at the Board of Trade Rooms, to which all citizens who take an interest in .the great fair next week are Invited. _ _ THE ANNUAL BALL OP THE GEEMAS ARTIL? LERY AID SOCIETY-.-A very large number of merry Teutons assembled last evening at the Hi? bernian Hall, where, by the aid of Muller's Band, full firty couples launched off into the mazes of the waltz, polka, quadrille, and a number of other fancy dances. Supper was served at midnight, and the company sought their homes only when Ute morning was far advanced. The ball was a Buccess in every respect, and mu9t have realized a handsome sum for the society. . A COMPLIMENT.-The Sumter Watchman pays Charleston thia handsome compliment: Charleston city has been redeemed, and proba? bly will never again fall under Radical rule as a municipality. The men of Charleston have nobly performed their duty, and the fruir of their labor s in their nanda lt was a grand spectacle to witness the gallant old city shaking off her ipathy, and rising, pinioned as she was, to assert ?he dignity of her manhood and freedom from the Lhrallof corruption into which she had f ah en. Sever before had she been so thoroughly in jamest, and never before top had the emergency Deon so great. ? ^. , COAL AND SCALES.-The coal traffic over toe Lehigh Valley Railroad or Pennsylvania is snormous. A alight Idea can be formed from the fact that forty thousand tons of cai have been weighed each week, for three years, upon a single track scale built by Messrs. E. A T. Fairbanks A To., making a total of six millions two hundred and forty thousand tons. This does not include Chat weighed upon the dozen or more other scales 9f their make npoC the said ' road. Messrs. Fair? banks are new manufacturing nearly 1000 acales sach week, of their various modifications, and are much behind their orders. THE NEW IRON STEAMSHIP GEORGIA sailed resterday arternoon for New York with a great sargo <>f cotton, rice, Ac. During her stay in port thousands have visited her, and all have ex? pressed gratification at the splendid outfit of her cabins and the large freight room which she se? cures to our port. Toe Georgia was intended to be ready In time to meet a through passenger and freight train from Macon, over the (ten year old) Macon and Augusta Road; but, altlV ugh the build eis or the Georgia tarried, the owners thouirht considerably, she has come and gone on her first voyage without hearing specially from Macon. Captain Orowell will be *ack early in November, and would like to be encouraged to believe that he will then meet Macon's representatives In the "City by the Sea." Is such a hope reasonable ? CHARLESTON BAPTIST ASSOCIATION.-This ancient body expects to hold its one hundred and nineteenth annual aession with the Bethel Church in Sumter County, commencing on Saturday, thc 6th of November. Rev. E. T. TV'lnkler, D. D:? to preach the Introductory sermon; the Rev. S. M. Richardson alternate. Rev. T. W. Melllchamp to preach the caarhy sermon: Be v. J. E. Rodgers al? ternate; A committee will meet delegates and visitors from the South at Moore's Turnout, with conveyances, on Friday afternoon, the 4th, at 6 O'clock; and those from the North at o o'clock on Saturday morning. We are authorized to say that delegates and visitors to this i meeting, passing over the Sooth Carolina Railroad or the Northeast? ern Railroad, wfll have a return passage o ver t he e roads free. It ls presumed that the Wilmington and Manchester Road will do the same. CHEAP COAL THIS WINTER_It ls a matter of general congratulation that present prospects indicate that dating the coming winter coal wm be cheaper than lt has been for many years here? tofore. The New York Times h.13 been sending its reporters among the principal coal companies of that city, and gives the following account of the market: The Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Rail? road Company, proprietors of the' Scranton coal mines, and by for the largest wholesale dealers are now selling their beat household (egg and' grated coal at $4 ?5 and $5. They report the mar? ket dull ann quiet, and the supply large. These are wholesale prices, the compan? doing no retail tra"e.' The next monthly sale, which tates pince on the 26th instant, may even show a decline from these ratea The Delaware and Hudson Canal Company, the next largest dealers, but who do also an immense retail trade, are selling at slightly advanced rates -egg and atove, wholesale, $5 85 te $5 90; retal' $650. : The Pennsylvania Coal Company, another mon. ster company, make a similar report. They also do a large retail trade, and report present retail prices for egg and grate, $6 50; atove $7. They take orders to d> liver at any time during winter montra at fifty cents below ihe above rat a. The general retail trade ls of course gov? erned almost entirely by the prices of the ibove firms, and may be so estimated. Taking me general average oh arouud. there ls a reduc? tion In the prices, now, as compared with last rear, af from $2 to $2 50 per ton, with the further idd'.tlonat gratifying prospects that prices wi il 10t be higuer, but may, in all probability, be ower. Charleston hos, as yet, scarcely felt the effect of ie decline in coal, though the stock lu the city ls lilly equal to the demand. The retail price of red i* h., egg and cl, est nut coal, delivered, ls $9 so per on. Bituminous coal retails at $11 per ton. It is e be hoped, for the s ike of the poor, that the ? isaal course of the coal market, upon the ap- , >roach of cold weather, will, Tor this winter at 1 east, be reversed. THE POET TIMKOD-DR. BRUNS'S LECTURE 1 LAST NIGHT.-Ceutral Church was Ulled last eve- 1 ling with an Inielligi-nt and appreciative au- 1 Hence, who listened with marted attention to 1 ;he eloquent words In which the life and genius 1 )f Henry Timrod were portrayed by tliedlstm fuished lecturer. The reputation and popularity >f the speaker, and thc melancholy atiractlveness ' >f the theme lent a double interest to the occa- 1 lon. On the stage wero seated the Rev. Mr. ' )una. the pastor of the church, Rev. R. p. cutler. I lon. W. D. Lesesne, Hon. Ceo. S. Bryan, Hon. W. 1 >. Porter. Dr. E. Geddings and Dr. Trescut. Thc 1 Ion. Geo. S. llryan, in a few graceful prefatory ' etnarks. Introduced Dr. J. Dickson Brun?, who ! iroceedod, arter a brief prelude.devottcl to a gen- ! irai description of the nature and office of poetry, 0 discuss and analyze the character and writings if Timrod. Dr. Bruns's elocution is polished and lmpres. ive; there is a curiosa felicitas in his choice of . rords, and a picturesqueness in his mode of ex? trusion -vhlch arc peculiarly adapted to thc dis? uasi?n of a theme so closely allied In its pervad ngsplnt to all that is graceful and delicate. Everything that was said, therefore, was most ipproprhite to the subject: and the recitations rom several of Timrod's poems, which were lu roduced In Illustration of the lecturer's remarks, vere given with gracs and truthfulness. If no .Igorous criticism waa attempted, none was leslred, or perhaps none needed. Future rears must decide Timrod's place upon the roll of poets: lt ls enough for us to know that he was a Southern singer, drawing his inspiration from aatlve founts, und speaking in tones which come marvellously home to the Southern heart. And when the judgment of posterity ls finally made op, we venture that its verdict will not differ widely from that of the eloquent memorial which the kindred genius or his friend has Inscribed dpon his tomb.

Qi? eer reasoning this. It ls like saying that an article which the world needs should be hidden In a cor? ner-that blessings and benefits may be too widely diffused-that the means of protecting and re? storing health should be a close monopoly, and not accessible to ail: The argument is bad.
