CHARLESTON begins to borrow fresh life
from the presence of a large number or persons
returning from Florida. The hotels are thronged,
and all sorts of packages, from a bnndle of pal?
metto to a young gazelle, parrot or monkey,
show that the trip of the tourists has not been
altogether in vain.
THE STUDY OF THE .GERMAN.- We are in?
formed that quite a number or our young citi?
zens are organizing a class for the study of the
German, under the auspices of a competent
teacher. The pleasures ot the Frena d BC ti af ts b un l
and schutzenverein have perhaps given a stimu?
lus in this direction,.-aside from the practical
value to be derived from a knowledge of this now
almost universal language.

We ar^a?ned to announce the death, yesterday
morning,'at arrhome In Columbia, of Mr. Charles
J. Bonin, who, for twenty-five yean, was the
agent of the South Carolina Railroad in that city.
Few men will be more missed and mourned.
Popular in his manners; large hearted and un?
selfish; always ready to be of service in a public
or private capacity; a faithful friend and exem?
plary citizen, he leaves behind him a record of
usefulness which ls the best tribute that can be
paid to bis memory.
SPOILING THE UNIFORM.-John Whalln was
arrested for raising a disturbance In Church
street, near Queen, and attempting to put off hts
clothing. He made a vigorous resistance, and on
being taken up by several men for transportation
to the Guardhouse, he seized hold of oue of the
policeman's coats and tore lt In several places.
Being brought before the Mayor, he was sentenc?
ed to pay a One of $5 and restore the coat to its
former condition, or spend ten days In the House
of Correction. The coat decided the matter, and
the prisoner took his way for the premises afore?
said. -? .

of an old celpred woman, named Hester Greene,
and making his way into her chest took thence a
couple or light canco patterns, in which Hester
bad just Invested fo* spring and summer wear.
The consternation ob the discovery or tbe theft
may be imagined, and before many hoars Proctor
was arrested and lodged in the Guardhouse. By
bis directions Officer Nipson succeeded in recov?
ering the dress patterns and returned them to
the disconsolate owner. Tho prisoner ls held ror
examination, and more plunder, lt is expected,

morning.
THE LYDIA THOMPSON TROUPE.-Wherever
Lydia Thompson has appeared since the manage?
ment of the company by Mr. J. T. Ford, the sue
cess or the entertainment has been marked, and
the public have been delighted. The press speak
In the highest terms of the performances, and
lead us to expect something much better than we
have hitherto seen. The rair Lydia herseir, on the
occasion or a recent bent Ht in Washington, being
called before the curtain, took occasion to say
that while an effort had been made to injure the
troupe, the motive was personal animosity, and
the facta alleged ns the lonndatlou tor the abuse
were utterly without foundation. She added :
We did not come here to establish the respect?
ability of our entertainment, but to uphold lt.
and this we are determined to do in spite of any
canting hypocritical Joseph Surface. As the
manageress or this troupe Milch bears my name,
I am personally responsible tor their perform?
ance, and I defy any one to point out indecency
sr immorality. I do not allow one word to be
used or one gesture to be made that could oriend
the reelings or the most sensitive person. Our
success depends entirely upon the respectability
or our entertainment, and this we are determined
to maintain. Burlesque properly rendered ls a
perfectly harmless aud amusing entertainment,
and If disert dit has been brought upon lt the
fault ls not with my troupe, but with those who
have become our Imitators.
Truthful words I Lydia Thompson and her troupe
will probably enjoy the satisfaction or playing to
audiences larger than any that have patronized
the best entertainments o' the kind given in
Charleston. They appear on Monday night, nt
the Academy of Music, tn "Sinbad the Sailor.'
THE MOUNT PLESAST DIFFICULTX-AFFRAY
WITH THE POLICE.-The Town of Mount Pleasant,
as some or our readers may know, rejoices lu a
single guardian or the peace, who may sometimes
be seen, on a One day, parading the streets or tri?t
enterprising place, and armed .with a baton, the
terror of all young evll-doers. This custodian of
the public weal corresponds to oar police, and ls
known by the high-sounding title of marshal.
One afternoon last week, two fast young men of
color, Ben Brown and James Campbell, by name,
entered the store of Mr. John Witschen, one or the
promlnlnent merchants or the town, and alter
having swaUowedseveral drinks, oecameuproar!
ons. To preserve the peace, the proprietor be?
thought himself or the awe-inspiring marshal,
and called that functionary to restore quiet. It
seems, however, timi the two blades were city
people, who know how to deal with police?
men, and knowing the weakness ot Mount
Pleasant's force, they each presented a
volver as the official entered. The club
iras nowhere, and he of the military appellation .
surrendered his weapon at discretion. Burning I
sith retributive justice, he mt.de his way to this J [
;ity, and Wednesday the two offenders were
ironght before a trial justice. The examination
dearly established the offence; but the Justice j c
hinting that the presenting of the deadly weap- | r
ms took the case out or his jurisdiction, the two
vere committed to jail for trial at the next Court
>f General Sessions. Yesterday they gave ball,
n the sum or $300 each, for their appearance at I r
:ourt, and were released. By afternoon, the | p
narshal of Mount Pleasant also found himself
notoriously arrested by a constable, and being
irought to the city, he was tried before Trial
'ustlce Magrath for assaulting the two convtvlal
sts with his club. The evidence showed that he
lad only attempted to do his duty, and got the
vorst or it, and being round not guilty, he waa
eleaseo. He .'eft for Mouut Pleasant to resume
ils official duties. | c
c
THE DAVENPORT BROTHERS LAST NIGHT-A I i
?CENE NOT IN THE BILLS.-The mysterious feats | f
vhlch have ma le the Davenport Brothers famous
hroughout the world, drew a goodly concourse I
if wonder+eekers, including a large proportion (
>r our most Intelligent citizens, to the Academy
ast evening. Some dlracalty was experienced In
totalling suitable gentlemen to represent the sa?
lience on the stage. Messrs. Howland and'Cohen
vere finally chosen, and the entertainment pro- I i
seeded mach in the same manner already noticed | t
n THE NEWS on the occasion ot the previous visit
if Hie Brothers. When, however, the time came
or the performance of what ls known as "the
laris seance,", ac Incident occurred which
or a time created quite a ripple of ex- >
ltement among the mystified spectators. '
tn occupant or a place in the am ii y circle, (whom <
ve have since ascertained to be Mr. Michael Kel
y, or No. 5 John street,) seized the opportunity, ll
vhen the singular gyrations or the phosphores- I
ont musical instruments had begun, to spring a [
>ull'8-eye lantern apon the proscenium. The
lght thus cast upon the stage was not by any
neans bright, and lasted perhaps not longer than
lair a minute. The dark seance was closed at
ince, and, the footlights belnj^ relit, Professor
fay stated the fact relative to the lantern, which
leemed known to but few of the spectators, and re?
tested the Interference or the police. The au?
lle ace joined In the appeal, and, with cries or "Put
lim out," the volunteer illuminator was ar?
rested and taken to the Guardhouse. Our
eporter was seated in the Iront row or the
irehestra chairs, and In the dim light ol the mo
nentary Ulamlnatloo saw distinctly the figure or a
nan standing directly tn front of the chair in
-vhlch Professor Fay a moment before had been
led and seated. The man was waving a guitar,
?vhlch he held by the neck. His body and arm
?vere moving from side to side to give
treater scope to tho gyrations of the shining
juitar. The other guitar and the arm or a man
?rere alao visible as they entered the circle of
light cast by the lantern. In a moment the lights
were relit, and, upon examination, Professor Fay
and one or the Davenports were round se?
curely tied to their chairs in the same way in
which they had lied themselves in the preced?
ing scene. The position or the man seen lu from
or, and his proximity to, the chair lu which Pro?
fessor Fay had been seated and tied a moment
before, left no doubt in our reporter's mind tn.it
the ligare was that of the stoat Professor himself.
There wa", of coarse, neither sufficient time nor
light to identify the features, and the writer ol
this can only state the result of his own observa?
tions, together with his impressions and belief, for
what they may be worth. After the Interruption,
the remainder of the dark seance, including the
coat scene, was given; bat lt la undeniable taat
the attempted vcpoae\ imperfect as lc waa, bad
the effect of diminishing, in a very material de?
gree, the interest of the audience la what was
going on.
Mr Kelly, the hero or the lantern, who claims
to have been actuated by a praiseworthy anxiety
to disabuse che pablo mind of the presum?"} In?
ter, entlon of spirits In th* seance, was we
have said above, hustled off to the Guardhouse.
On his arrival there the officers, probably puaaled
as to the nature of the charge to be brought
against him, detained him a short time, when,
there being no signs either of spirits or mona, i
ashia accusers, be wis released and weat his
way rejolc ng.
A DAKING BURGLARY AND ARREST.-On the
[ night or the l9th-rinstant, about 12 o'clock, the
store ol Hr. Henry Splencken, at the corner or
Coming and Line streets, was broken open and
[ entered while the ramily were in the house tod
asleep on the second floor. The burglars went to
work silently and in a business like manner, and
carried off $103 In cash, hair box of tobacco, one
hundred cigars and three-quarters of a box or
raisins without any alarm being given. On the
affidavit or Mr. Splencken, Jerry Wright, with an
alias, was arrested last evening by Officers Daly
and Lovett, on a warrant rrom Trial Justice Mac?
key, and lodged In the detective office lor exami?
nation. Jerry is the captain or a sloop which has
been employed for some time past in gathering
shells for the city. He ls an old"offender, and has
run the gauntlet of a petit jury in thc General
Sessions before.
TUE STATE COURT.-The Court ot General
Sessions met yesterday at 12 o'clock, his Honor
judge Graham presiding.
The gland Jury found another true bill against
F. C. Miller, E. P. Wall and M. McLaughlin for
official misconduct, and made the rollo wing pre?
sentment:
PRESENTMENT OF THE GRAND JORr FOR THE
COUNTY OF CHARLESTON.
At the regular February term or the Court or |
General Sessions ror the year 1871, we. the grand
jurors, do present that the public buildings are In
good order. The Jail was visited, and we were
favorably impressed as to its cleanliness and gen?
eral good order.
The City Hospital, under the charge or Dr.
Robert Lebby, Sr., merits our highest commenda?
tion. Special attention was paid to lt, and the
grand Jury were highly satlsfled with the entire
management or that Institution.
The grand Jury visited the Orphan Asylum in
George street, where a large number or children
are domiciled and educated, and they take
pleasure in tesurylng to the very excellent disci?
pline or that institution. The children evinced a
degree of educational proficiency that was grati?
fying.
TRIAL JUSTICES.
The grand. Jnry after careful and minute in?
spection of the records of several trial Justices,
feel bound to recommend that some change oe
made in this system. The system as lt at present
exists, ls a great expense to the State. The large
number or very trivial cases which are brought i
before them ought, in the Judgment or the grand
|u>y, to he tried and disposed or by some minor
officials, whereby they can be speejily disposed
or, thereby greatly reducing the expenses or the
present system.
DETECTIVE OFFICE.
The grand Jury would recommend that this
attlee should not be used as a place or confinement
for prisoners, except under circumstances which
render lt apsolutely necessary. This they would
urge especially in reference to females. 4
COUNTY TREASURER.
The grand jury would especially recommend
that the county treasurer should pay particular
attention to the payment of checks on him held b ?
those who received them in payment for services
rendered. There are persons who hold drafts ou
the treasurer for which they have rendered faith?
ful service, and it would be a great public relier j
if these drafts were paid promptly, as, in the
oplnioo of the grand jury, the prompt payment or -
these drafts would put an end to speculation in
county checks, and thereby give a proper valua?
tion to these checks..
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
As the grand Jury have already examined and
passed upon the affairs or the county commis?
sioners, they deem it unnecessary to make fur?
ther comment on this head of their report. They
would, however, recommend that until the
charges against the county commissioners have
been decided by ihe tribune to which they have
been referred, they do not issue any checks on the
treasurer, unless the same be under the direct or?
der or approval of the circuit Judge.
CONSTABLES.
The grand jury would respectfully recommend
that the piesent abuses tn this system be reme?
died at once. The amount charged to constable
account is, in their opinion, an enormity which
should be abated at once. They think that each
trial justice should not have moreM&au two con?
stables to be paid ror by the county.
The srand Jury in retiring from their dntles beg
leave tn tender their high appreciation of the
courtesies and' attention received from the pre?
siding Judge, as well as from the officers of the
court, who aided them with alacrity In all their
Investigations.
Respectfully submitted,
