THE TRIBCNE ALMANAC 1871.-We have re? ceived a copy of this invaluable pol'Mcal and statistical rad? 'meewn. The compliers have contrived to make it ah improvement upon its predecessors, which seemed almost impossible. A FISH TRANSACTION.-Wm. Hall and Geo. Brown, two young men of color, were arrested yesterday morning by Offlcer Johnson, of the detective force, on a charge of stealing fish from Nolan's stall in the Market. They were detected In the act, and are held for examination. SAIL STOLEN.-William Maxwell was arrest? ed on Saturday evening, by OlHcer Daly, on sus? picion of stealing a sail and some money from a boa: on South Bay. He was brought before thc Mayor yesterday morning, and, after a hearing, turned over to a trial justice for further examina? tion. The case will be tried to-day. TUE MANLY ART.-On Sunday morning, two spirited youths or color, Wm. Tharin and John Drayton by name, Indulged In a little set-to In front or the Charleston Hotel. After some spar? ring, the well-matched pair had just settled to fkelr work in earnest, when a policeman appear? ed upon the scene. The amateurs were collared and taken to the Guardhouse, whence they made their exit next morntng, after a short Interview with the Mayor, on their way to the House of Cor? rection. They caa be found at the latter place for the next five days. TUE AIKEN PREMIUM LAND SALE.-The at? tention of the public ls Invited to the advertise? ment of the manager or this popular scheme, in serted in another column.

THE LADIES' MEMORIAL FAIR.-A meeting of the special committee In connection with the executive committee of this Fair took place on Saturday even in-.', when active measures were takeu to reuder the coming fair something unu? sual In thc aun?is of Charleston. The members of the committees and many of the public have beeu hard at work, and the fruits of their energy are already perceptible lu the numerous valuable contributions already received. The ladies of the association would not have undertaken the fair at this season had lt not been pressed upon them by a letter received rrom the Hollywood Associa? tion, which stated that the latter association vould remove the remains or the sixty South Carolinians interred at Gettysburg If the Charles? ton association did not. The fair held in the spring realized only $125, and the association now wish to raise such additional means as will enable them to have the bones of our dead re? moved to Magnolia before memorial day. The removal from Columbia or the^arble and granite given to the association for building the proposed monument at Magnolia has also become necessa? ry, on account or the disappearance or some or the pieces. The object or the fair is one tba*, comes home to every South Carolinian, aud we feel certain that the hope expressed by the ladles, that they will be aided in this work by all that eau do so, will meet a ready and ample response. THE ADELAIDE PHILLIPPS CONCERT.-Our musical public will have au opportunity to-mor? row evening of -njoylug a rare musical treat. The fame of the distinguished songstress has preceded her, and the desire of the few among us . v who have heard her, to listen to her again, as well as the impatience of others, will not fall to secure a universal attendance of the appreciators of the art. The following laudation, from the pen of the musical critic of the New York Tribune, ls not overwrought: To say that Adelaide Phillipps ls the finest con? tralto in America, is to say nothing, for the rea? son that on this side or the Atlantic there ls no competitors for her laurels. To say that Europe does not possess her equal, is to state a fact. We speak advisedly, and without forgetting Alboul for one moment. For wealth ot voice aud execu? tion, Marietta Alboni ls Incomparable. Tuere.n she stands without rear and without reproach; but marvellous vocalist as Alboni Is, she is. much better adapted to the :oncert room thau to the I stage. Unwieldy in appearance, totally devoid or | Jtbllityasan actress, and ?in:ularly deficient in dramatic passion, she delights the ear, leaves nothing to be desired lu point of style, but never appeals to head or heart. Therefore, we award the palm to our American contralto because, thoughtless, wonderful as a simple vocalist, her unusual dramat.c abllty, her versatility, aad her mastery expressions, eminently flt her for the theatre, ami, consequently, places her Mg ber lu the scale of art. Miss Phillipps ls accompanied by several noted artists-among them, Mr. L Levy, who ls pro? nounced the best cornet player in the world. The Boston Traveller says of his playing, that "the like of lt has never been heard in this country,"' and thus describes it : His execution is marvellous; bc makes his in ecru ment sing such strains ol plaintive melody as to make the heart ween; and the next breath astonishes b.v the most-dazzling scales, cadenzas, thrills, and chromatic runs. .Nothing can exceed hts rendering of the "Wblrldwiud Polka," and the "Carnival de Venice;" the latter ls given with all the variations wrlcteu for the violin.

The saUor wa? mis? taken, and we take pleasure in makin ir tac cor? rection. ? TRIAL OF A STEAM FIRE EXCISE_Saturday morning the new steam Ure engine, en route from Seneca Falls, New York, to Columbia, South Caro? lina, was tested on the Basin bank, at the foot of Tenth street, Richmond, Va., In presence of Chief Enfftnoer AipsIle"vor the city Ure. department, a number of firemen and a large crowd of citizens. The result of the trial was very satisfactory, the steamer throwing one stream through a 13-s Inch nozzle, ISO feet, and one through a 11-4 nozzle, 197 feet; two streams through a 7-S nozzle, 153 feet, and three streams through a 3 4 uozzle, 136 feet. _ THE EDISTO DISTURBANCE QUIETED.-Sheriff Mackey returned on Sunday from Edisto Island, to which place he had gone to-Investigate the late 'disturbances at the Baynard seaside pla.itation. He found the scene Of action remarkably quiet, and, in a few words, explained tli<j nature or the legal, proceedings to the freedmen, letting them uudcrstand that they ha l either to quit the place or contract with the owner. They preferred the latter, and have gone peaceably to work. They told the sheriff that there was no rlotfdnd that the constables had been alarmed by a few Inno? cent demonstrations oa their part, caused by* their not knowing what the writ meant. NIGHT CAUS ON TUE CITV RAILWAY.-It is all important to the success of entertainments, such as those given a: the Academy of Music and to be given by the Adelaide Pliillipps troupe at the Freundschaftsbuud Hall, that the managers thereof should mike arrangements with the City Railway Company to have one or more cars in wailing ac the cose of the performance for the accomodation of that portion of the audience who live up town. There are many persons who would attend both of these places if they could be as sured of the usual facilities for returning home, and wc have reason for saying that the City Rail? way will make liberal arrangements with the mauagers to the eal that the public may be thus accommodated. UNITED STATES COURT.-The District Court was opened at io o'clock yesterday morutng, Irs Honor Judge Bryan presiding: The jurors No. 1, sworu in the case against thc Beaufort commissioners now .peudlag, were dis? charged until thc "th of February, 1871. Ex parte William C. P. Bellinger and William H. Ballinger, copartners nuder the firm name of Bellinger A- Sou. The petition for voluntary bank? ruptcy was referred to Registrar Carpenter to make adjudication. The United States vs. Williams, Laugley and Cleaves, the commissioners of election for Beau? fort County, was taken up, and tne examination Of the witnesses for the pro-secutlou continued until the hour of adjournment. At half-past 3 o'clock P. M. the court adjourned until io o'clock this mornlug. TUE PRICE INQUEST.-The coroner's jury Impanelled In the '.a*e of Johanna Price, gene? rally known as Julia Simmon-", the aged colored woman whose body was found on Saturday mornlug In the dook of Atlantic wharf, met yes? terday at 12 M., at the corouer's oitlce, to con? tinue their investigad jns. The evideuce showed that the deceased was frequently out of her tnlud. and, when la this state, usually went to the wharves to seek her brother, who had gone away a long time ago in a boat. . She left her residence In Society stree: between one aad two o'clock on Friday afternoon, and althougn strict search had been ma 'e for her, ha?! not been found. The evi? dence also tended to show that Mary Johns ja. who claimed the body as graud-daughter of the deceased, was only after s unie of the property found on the body, and she wa? turned over to Trial Justice Mo Unlay on suspicion of being an impostor. The Jury rendered a verdict or death from accidental drowning during a tit of iusaulty. A DIVORCE "A MENSA," AND A QUARREL OVER THE "TnoRO.''-AU Indignant colored female, overcome with the trials and troublC3 of being united to and living with au uncongenial spirit, made her appearance yesterday afternoon before one of our trial Justices, and took out a warrant of arrest against her onreudiug lord, who followed closely Into the court. Giving her name as Ann Manlgault, and iudignautiy repudiating that of Lewis, which she-had assumed at the hymenial altar, she deposed that her liege had a vicious habit of hitting out with his list aud tilnglug things at people's heads when he got mad; and that, lcoklug forward to a separation, he had appropriated two pict ure i and 3 bedstead which he had given lier in happier times. She then announced her intention of im? mediately separating from him, aad asked that the property be given her as alimony, and he of the heavy fist be bound over to keep the peace. Geels Lewis, the husbaud, made no demur io the latter request, nor to the returning or the pictures, but wanted to retain the bed, as this was the only piece of property he owned, and In the event or the threatened separation he would have no place to lay lils head, and would go forth lu the world with nothing but lils clothes. A few symptoms of making lt up on his part were spurned with indignation by his relentless dame, and he was told to choose between giving up the bedstead and being boiud over for trial. He gave lt up as a bad job, a:id left to begin life afresh. CLUBS AND STARS.-Tom Washington was arrested on Saturday evening for stealing ten pounds of meat from nis employers' store, in King street. At the trial berore the Mayor, the gentle? men from whom he stole the mea: appeared, and Interceded for Hie prisoner, and the latter was discharged with a reprimand. Wm. Cruse, arrested for raising a disturbance iu Henry Rune's bar-room, lu King street, wai released on a deposit of $ > as security for his ap? pearance before the Mayor. The amouut was de? clared forfeited upon bis non-appearance yester? day morning.. A,dtlnkist, who wanted to fight somebody on EaBt Bay. Bear Hasel street-, and one who persist? ed tn making a noise tn Wilson street, were lock? ed up, sod opon being bronght.before the Mayor pleaded the first offence and were discharged. An individual, who had by some mistake or other got exceedingly drank and became very disorderly m King street, and another who, in an equally Interesting condition, was unable to take care of himself, on South Bay, were accommo? dated at the Guardhouse, and after a trial before the Mayor, paid each a fine of $5 for his spree. Luke Wrigi.t, arrested on suspicion of stealing ein ht ducks from No. 31 King street, had a preli? minary hearing, and waa held for rurther exami? nation.

THE WEATHER.-While telegrams bring ns tidings of dreary, cold and stormy weather at the North, of snow-drlft?, rrost-bites and spears or Ice, we of Charleston are enjoying an atmosphere balmy, Invigorating and full of sunshine. The last two days have scarcely reminded us of win? ter, and the tourists In our midst, who, a week ago, were wrapped in furs, are in raptures at the change. Speaking or travellers, the bitter weath? er above Baltimore has suddenly turned an Im? mense tide of emigration southward. Aiken ls full or people with tender lungs; Columbia ls near ly overrun by persons en route; Charleston ls thronged-two hundred guests, on Sunday, oc? cupied thc tab:es or the Mills House alone-while every nook and cornor In Florida, which seems to have acquired a fictitious reputation In contrast with her Southern sisters, ls overflowing. "It's an Ul wind that blows nobody good." VACANCIES IN THE STATE SENATE.-Lletlten ant-Covernor A. J. Ransler, chairman or the Re? publican State executive committee, calls the at? tention of the chairmen of count; committees lu Abbeville, Georgetown and Charleston, to the proclamation for an electlou of a senator in each or the counties named, and Instructs said chair? men to call a convention of Republicans "In or? der that a flt person maybe chosen for tue sur frage of the people, and that there be but one recognized candidate." lu this connection E. J. Adams, a colored minis? ter, now residing In this city, publishes a card, wherein he states that "In seekiEg tins position (or senator) I am not In the least actuated by the spirit of any faction; I only seek the establishment and the promotion of the great ends of justice to aU men and a'l classes or our great body politic, as rar as I am able to contribu e to that object. Upon these grounds outy I ask thc support or any clas3 or color." Alfred R. Wigg Is nominated by thc Republicans of Ward 4 for thc Charleston senitorshlp. AN ATROCIOUS MURDER NEAR ADAH'S R?N? THE SECOND SINCE CHRISTMAS.-On Saturday morning the dead body of a white man, named Daniel Drigge?, aged about rorty years, was dis? covered lying on the side oran avenue leading to one or the plantations about three miles from Adara's Run, In St. Paul's Parish. Thc deceased was a man of good character, and at the time of his murder was engaged lu selling frem pork and trading the same ror rice, which he sold. He was last seen ou Friday alterno m, and lt ls supposed he was murdered about seven or eight o'clock that evening. He was driving along in the cart in which he usually carried lils wares, and lt ls supposed that he was waylaid and knocked from his seat by a heavy blow. He must have recognized some of the parties engaged in the murder, ror while on thc ground the muzzle ora gun loaded with small shot was p!aced close to hts face and the piece discharged. The whole of his chock and the rl^ht eye was blown away, aud the charge came out at the bick of his hea l, tearing away a large portion or the skull. Seve? ral pieces or the skull were found la thc road, at? tention being directed to them by a dog that was munching them. The body was dragged to the road-side and thrown lato a ditch partially filled with water, and covered with leaves. When found, the pockets of the deceased were turned Inside out, and the fiendish deed must have been committed for the solo purpose or obtaining the little m mey he had about his person. There was no magistrate, trial justice or coroner In the en? tire district to take thc matter lu charge, and the body was therefore examined by six white men and twenty colored before It was removed by the friends or the deceased, at 2o'clock, on Saturday. Not the slightest clue has been discovered of the murderers.- The deceased ls represented as a quiet. Inoffensive mao, and leaves a large faral'y in destitute circumstances. He was a private In Btoek's regiment ot South Carolina cavalry, and tferyed durlug the war In that organization. Great excitement prevails throughout the neigh? borhood, ns this ls the second horrible adair or the kind which bas occurred there since Christmas the body or aman In a state or decomposition and hair eaten by the buzzards having been found a mouth ago In the same locality and Iden? tified as that of George Declmi>. There is a man uotv at Adam's Kim who m kes several suspicious statements In regard to this affair last mentioned, which are denied by thc ramlly of the deceased, aud yet theve is no proper officer to administer thc laws, ft ls hoped tha' steps will be taken to brln? the criminals ta justice aud prevent a re? currence of.sLmi.ar outrages.
