Williams, to examine Into the state of the exploded boiler at the Etiwan works, were busily engaged yesterday. An examination of the flues shows that they have each been mash? ed as dat as a knife blade. Only a few bricks bite been displaced. The ot her boiler-,'j ust along? side o' Its exploded mate, has not been worked since the accident. _ . ATTEMPTED BURGLARY.-A second attempt toj^break^lnto the residence of Edward Lafitte, Esq., on Rutledge avenue, was made on Sunday night, about 10 o'clock. On thc first occasion the burglars endeavored to move the silo lights, In? tending thereby to reach the Key and unlock the door. They would have been foiled, however, by the absence of the key. On the last "occasion, they attempted to pry the bolt back with a chisel, ? but being doubtless disturbed, they suddenly sus- I pended operations and decamped. ' ?- i CAUTION.-We are informed that lor nearly two weeks a large number or James Islaud ne? groes have been lounging In Charleston, wl:hout any ap paren*, means of support.' "Satan still finds mischief for Idle hands to do," and lt ls not reasonable to believe all of these lazy people to be BO strictly .cu?tcLeatiaus ; that they' would t?ten their backs'?? air opportunity to plunder. It be- i hooves our cl'lzens, therefore, to look well to their door-fastenings,T frone-, halls, bacic^ yards and chicken coops. 'Example' seems to have little effect on these rascals__A thimble full of powder and a leaden pellet is-wcr^i.a cargo of mofathyw as lt is^tif&sejat aAlrjUajStereocl^i ' -.

There seamsto be a mutual dependence on each other, out or which grow not only the domestic virtues, buta public spirit always equal to the demands of an emergency.

The following memorial against the pro? posed revival or the usury laws or the State is I about to be submitted to the General Assembly, on thc part or the Chamber of Commerce or j Charleston: To the Honorable the Senate and House of Repre? sentatives oftlie State of Sout7i Carolina: The Charleston Chamber or Commerce respect fully present to your honorable body, the rollow ing considerations against the proposition to re? vive legislative interference in this State in the matter of the rate or Interest chargeable for the use or money. In 1S6C, this Chamber united with the Board of | Trade In urging upon the Legislature the abroga? tion of laws erroueou-dy styled "laws for preven? tion ot usury," and lu a memorial then prepared expressed the sense of the mercantile world as to the evils or such restrictions upon the flow or I capital, and tbc opsration or the natural law or | snpply and demand. The soundness or the views then expressed, and the wisdom or the act tntltled uan act to repeal the usury law or this State," have been so Tully continued by the experience of the entire busi? ness community, as to the effect of that repeal, that this Chamber reels it to be due to the people oi the State, to place upon record the verdict or that experience, as a safeguard against all future attempts to revive such uuwise and unnatural restrictions. Tne only class who will profit by laws limiting the legal rate or Interest ou special contracts for the loan of money is the usurer class, the men who, for the use of the money they lend, charge the borrower a premium for the risk they Incur by lend big for a rate abo^e the legal rate, and who thus secure a monopoly of high profits ex? torted rrom the necessities or the borrower. The e.reot or the repeal or those laws has been to brtak up that monopoly, and to bring all who have monev to luvest or leud. In wholesome com? petition with the usurer class., compelling the rates to be lowered to the line estaohshed by the laws or demand and supply. Berore the repeal, capital was so scarce In South Garollna that money commanded five per cent, per month, and sometimes more. Encouraged, as your memorialist really btlicve, by the removal or these restrictions, capital has since sought every corner or profitable employment, in trade, agri? culture and mechanical Industry in South Caro? lina, and a steady decline In the rates or interest bas taken place rrom that time tu this day, when money ls rreely loaned at one per cent, per month, with a tendency to still lower rates of iuterest. Revive these unwise laws, and the Inevitable result will follow or a stringent money market, a rerusal or loans to the factor, merchant and me? chanic contractor-operating directly to check all enterprises for the coming year, and immediately to lower the rate of wages to all laborers. Capital will seek other fields of investment where it is not dented a fair and lawful competi? tion, and the prosperity of the entire community or South Carolina will be materialy postponed In point or time and relatively to others. Respectfully submitted, ROB HUT MORE, President Chamber or Commerce. A TOUCHING PICTURE.-Much attention was attracted yesterday by a new chromo displayed In the window ot Russell's book store. It ls en? titled "The Lost Cause," and represents the return or a conrederate soldier at the close of the war to the desolate min or what was once his humble bat happy home. The scene in all it3 adjuncts ls full cf expression and sadly real. MASONIC-At the regular communication of Lebanon Lodge, No. 4S, A. F. M.. held at Masonic Hall, December 3, 1870, the following otUcers were elected for the ensuing Masonic year: J. R. Ful more, WVJL; Wi J. M. Lee, S. W.; Josiah Cock field, J.

ON THE PROMENADE.-King street In its palmiest days was npt more picturesque with fashionable life than lt appeared yesterday. Every beautiful woman in Charleston seemed to Be out for a walk, and tne air echoed with a conversa? tional melody fresh as the twitter of birds. Shop wind ow? were kaledelscoplc with bright colors; the toilettes i werft unimpeachable; rair connois? seurs round an ample field for observation ; beaux were lu demand ; 'bachelors . looked leas misan? thropic, and everybody appeared to feet glad that "he, she and it" were born. OUR CONNECTIONS WITH TUE MISSISSIPPI VAXXJST.-Tiie gratifying announcement ls made that the bridge over the Alabama River, ou the Western Railroad, between Montgomery and Sel - ma, has been crossed for thc first time since ?ts completion. Tae chain of connection from Charleston to Vicksburg and tho Mississippi Val? ley ls now complete, and through cotton rrom that rich section can and will be shipped direct, via Charleston, wltuotii, breaking bulk. The open? ing or this direct communication with one or the richest cotton-producing sections or the South, hitherto pouring its products Into the lap or New Orleans, ls of the greatest Importance to Charles? ton and her commercial standing as the second seaport or the South. The tedious process or ship? ment, via the Mississippi, to New Orleans, will gradually change into au expeditious overland transportation in this direction. THE OBSTRUCTIONS IN OLD TOWN CREEK RAPID BLASTING-THE CHANNEL CLEAR.-Thc work ol removing the obstructions In Old Town or Shipyard Creek, which was commenced a few weeks ago, lins been pushed forward with un? tiing energy, mid the efforts of the contractor, Mr. John D. Grirfln, have met with the most ea conragtngsuccess. Yesterday morning the old gunboat, which had bceu lying at ease tor a nuin ber or years in a sort bed or mud, was rudely aroused by the explosion of a thundering charge of powder, and the wreck uow lies on the mud on the opposite side of the creek. The con tractor has with him for the work two flats, ono n pile-driver, and the other fitted with a large derrick on the bow tor hoisting the heavy masses of w.-eck, which are too heavy to float. The iictesni"y rur th< latter part of the work has been almost entirely super seded, however, by the sound condition of the decks and timbers, which float ou* as soon as they are blown away from the other portions of thc wreck and relieved from the masses of mud that have settled upon them. The modus operandi seems to be very simple and is as rollow3. large tin can, very similar to a kerosene oil can, ls made perfectly air tight, -of a capacity to cou talnrully forty-five pounds of powder. This is well filled with the best rifle powder, and an Iron tube (Ifteen feet long ls inserted in the mouth of the can, through which tube runs the slow match. Thc can is then carefully wrapt with twine and canvas, or what the sailors call "parcelling," particularly about Hie mouth where the tube enters, and over the whole three or four coats or hot pitch are applied. The can ls now ready Tor operation, and thc il3ts which generally lie above the wreck aro removed as soon as a suita? ble place Tor a blas: ls round. This place ls marked by. a pole, aud two men in a boat carry out the in? fernal machine and sink lt In the chosen spot whether on the top or side of the wreck matters not, as long as there is-plcnty of water above it. Wheu in position the ruse ls lighted, and the men row quietly back to watch the result. The steady curlorsmoke rrom the end orthe tube, some three reet above the water, shows that the Are is still burning, and at the end or 4>i minutes, a time when every one thinks it is about to go out, the explosion tak-s place. An immense column of foaming water is thrown upward fifteen or twenty feet, and a dull rumbling noise bellows around the shore aud stirs the workmen to a cheer. Huge pieces of timber and fragments of plank now rise to the surface, followed by masses of mud, which soon beclouds the hitherto clear stream, and makes the water as dingy as the Styx Is popularly.supposed to have been. The fish In the Immediate vicinity are often stunned by the explosions au I rise to the suriace or the water. Several fine ones have boen captured In this way. Most of the wreck diseugaged and brought up by the blast soon (loan down the river. That which sinks again has to bj raised and carried off. Another place is then chosen, and another blast prepared. Tnls work has been prosecateJ with such unre? mitting energy, that thc channel or the creek is now entirely clear, an I the only object lertfor the workmen to turu their attention to Is the re? moval or a part or the old dry dock near thc shore, directly opposite the Etiwaa Works. This will be accomplished in less than two weeks, and the contractor, Mr. Griffin, deserves much praise for the enterprise with which he has conducted the business. He employs ?boat six men with him in the work. The vast debris or timbers, beams, ribs, decks, Ac, on the mud banks Just below the Phosphate-Works, shows how Industri? ously they have labored; ?MUBEHEXT8. Academy of Winnie-The Blondes. Lisa Weber's Troupe of British Blondes opened last night at the Academy to a fair house. The audience was put at once In a good humor by the capital manner in winch the opening farce of "The Laughing Hyena'' was given by Miss Hattie O'Neal and Miss Cassie Troy, with Messrs. Viuseot and Atkins; and by the time the serious fun of the evening began, a perfect entente cordiale had been established between the house and the act? ors. The musical burlesque of Ernani preserves but rew of the leading reatures of the famous opera, but those few are skilfully combined lato a very agreeable and entertaiulug comedietta, lhere is the usual allowance of puns-some good enough, and some bad enough to be much better; and the songs and chorusses that are introduced, [among them the ever-popular "Shoo Fly,") give room for plenty of spirited singing and dancing. Passing from the play to the performance, we can honestly say that the present troupe ls among the best in many respects which has trod the burlesque boards or the Academy this season. Miss Lisa Weber, the prima donna, ls pretty and piquante i clever actress and a graceful dancer, with a :lear and melodious volce,*hnd a natural off-hand manner which "takes" remarkably well. She ls .apitally supposed-the troupe playing into each )t?erB hands with au ease and a smoothness ivhlch deserves al! praise. Mr. Atkins's feats of j iglllty were really surprising, and hi's "get-ups" ibsurd enough for all possible purposes. Mr. Vln ?en 's stilt dance also merits especial mention. Vnd, finally, the costumes of the principal per briners were gorgeous In the extreme. Altogeth ir, "The Blondes" are not behind their reputa ion, and will no doubt prove a very successrul ?ngagement. To-night "La Sonnambula" ls an louncen, with a strong cast. H.-bernian Hall-The Minstrels. We have no hesitation in pronouncing the en ertalnment or the bklff A Gaylord Minstrels at the ibove hall last evening the best or the kind ever ?i ven In Charleston. The Albinos were a decided luccess, and Mr. Low Gaylord deserves eminent xedit Tor the happy Invention whereby twenty bur cosmopolitans have been transmogrlfled nto lively specimens of first-class sculpture. In he first portion of the entertainment, every mera? ki: or the company, from the crown or his head 0 the sole of his foot, was white to a degree that-1 1 ghost would appear disgustingly pale In his iresence. In this condition tley favored the ludlence with some fine music, instrumental, icntlmental and comic, and Interspersed the per ormance with a lively dialogue that kept the au Hence lu thc best possible humor. Low Jaylord, a host in himself, has evidently lelected first class artists, and whatever they do, ie lt In song, dance or burlesque, is done with :ommendab!e vim, faithfulness aud propriety. Tyrrell, the tenor; Bidaux, the baritone; Lang, the alsetto; Stiles and Phelps, the statuesque clog lancers; Harry Talbot, r ne Inimitable "end" man md Jpklst, and Bertholon, with his extremely high ragedy and "cremona" banjo, each received de erved encores. Finally, the dissolving views in reduced by Professor Schaffer were alone worth he price of admission, and suited every taste, 'he audience manifested their approval from the teglnnlng to the close or the performance. The ronpe appears again this evening In an entirely lew programme, and should draw a crowded louse. RANGE OF THE THERMOMETER at Joseph Jlackmau's drug store, No. 39 Broad street.
