THE ORPHANS' FAIR.-The fair for the bene- ,
flt of the Orphans under the charge of the Sisters i
of Our Lady of Mercy will open at the Hloernlan :
Hail on Monday week, the 17th instant. From ,
the pains that hare been taken, and the Interest ,
manifested in the generous work, there ls every ;
reason to believe that the fair will be one of the :
handsomest which Charleston has known. In be?
half of the Orphan child rea lt needs not to say a
word. Their uplifted hands and pleading faces
are a more eloquent appeal than the pea contd
make. They ask now for a part of the abundauce
of the rich, and of the scanty means of the poor ; 1
and there are none so straitened even . in '
Charleston, that they cannot do a little for the in?
nocent children who have no other hope and no j
other home than that which the good Sisters give
them. To help In this work ls, to help to mcxe
virtuous and useful citizens of the waifs which
affliction has left upon oar shores.
The fair opens on Monday, April 17. Contrlbc- ,
tions of articles, and donations of money, may be .
left with the Sisters at any time.
AT WORK ON THE OLD POSTOPFICE.-Positive j
instructions were received last Sunday evening by ,
Mr. W. K. Hoyt, the superintendent of the im- j
provements to be made on this building, to begin (
work at once. These orders have been obeyed ,
with energy and promptness. A large number of ,
workmen are now at work on the building,, and ,
the force will be increased as the repairs proceed. |
The carpenters have been hard at work, and are
now engaged in the erection of a substantial stag?
ing around the edifice-that on the south side be- <
lng already completed. Yesterday m urning the
large stand, so long blazing with illuminated
posters of burlesque tro .pes, magicians and Jap?
anese, was tora down by unsympathetic woru
men, and the open doors of the old build?
ing, with all its internal ruin, were brought
to View. The work of destruction was pretty
complete, and, from the ruins of tts arched base?
ment to us shattered slating, the grim old wreck
seems to frown upon the attempts of the work?
men at renovation In the powerful arches of the
ground floor the effects of several sheds are to be
seen, and the bricklayers are busy ia repairing
these damages. Cn the second day, while a work?
man was at worr. in this manner In one of the
largest of the orllces, he discovered a fiat circu?
lar piece of iron weighing several pounds, which
proved, on investigation, to be the base of a con?
ical Parrot shell which bad struck the wall near
the earth and exploded when half way through.
The fragment was deeply Imbedded lu the wall,
and having been extracted, established Its idea ti
ty, beyond a doubt, as a piece of one of Mr. Gil?
more's Inquisitive messengers. The operations or
the workmen wi l first be directed towards the
exterior of the building and the roof, and, when
these are finished, the Interior will be attended to.
The lamber and other material used la the repa -
rations will all be purchased in the city, and the
appropriation will benefit the city lu more ways
than one. The work ls not let under contract,
bat Mr. Hoyt ls the agent and superintendent to
see that the money ls properly expended, and
that the beat of materials are used in the work.
The manner ia which the repairs were begun, and
the activity with which they are proceeding,
speak well for the energy and business manage?
ment or the superintendent, and insure the early
completion of a piece of work which will be an
ornament and convenience la the most populous
- centre of the business community.

THE RIGHT OF CHALLENGE.-In organizing
the jury, on Wednesday, lathe Circuit Court, in
the case of the United States vs. the Beaufort
commissioners for tampering with ballots In vio?
lation of the election laws of Congress, the fol?
lowing rulings were made, after full argument by
counsel:
First. That the act of Congress or 1865 allowing
ten challenges, In all cases other than capital,
where peremptory challenges are now allowed,
has reference to cases where the statutes of tbe
United States recognize peremptory challenges.
Second. That the law or the State or South
Carolina, in reference to challenges, In cases or
misdemeanor, ls the rule In the United States
courts, which law allows two peremptory chal?
lenges to either side.
Third That each of the three d?fendants jointly
in'Vcted and being tried together, have a right to
challenge two, and the Url'.cd States to challenge
six.
Fourth. That lu exercising this right of chal?
lenges when jurors are sworn, by the poll on their
voir aire, the peremptory challenges are to be
alternated between the ?D?ted States and defen?
dant.
GOOD FRIDAT.-The day of the passion has
been held as a festival hythe Christian Church
from the earliest times, and on this occasion the
services are marked by an unusual solemnity.
Before the Reformation, Oood Friday was cele?
brated la England with the same religious cere?
monies as In other Catholic countries. A figure
of the Saviour, being mouuted on a crucifix, two
priests bore it around the altar with sorrowful
cheats; then, laying lt on the ground with great
tenderness, they fell beside lt and kissed its hands
and feet with piteous sighs and tears, the other
priests doing the like in succession. Afterwards
the people came In to venerate the dead Saviour,
each bringing some little girt.
AU over England the morning or Good Friday
ls ushered lu with a cry or "Hot Cross-buns," and
a parcel of them appears on every breakfast
table. The bun ls a small one, more than usually
spiced, and having its brown sugar surface mark?
ed with a cross.
The season is not particularly observed in the
United States except by trie Episcopalians and
Roman Catholics. By common consent, however,
the shops and stores are mostly closed, and little
business ls transacted, though, by law, lt is not
legally a nulla ales. In the Episcopal Churches
the -e will be service at the usual hours In the
morning and afternoon. In the Catholic Churches
the services wll be, in part, as follows: St. Mary's,
Mass and Veneration of the Cross, at 7 A. M.; at
St. Patrick's, at 8 A. M ; at the Cathedral Chapel,
at 0 A. M. At St. Mary's, at4 P. M., the Stations
of the Cross. At the Cathedral ChapeLat hair-past
7 P. M., Tenebrae aud sermon by the Rev. C. J.
Oroghan.
SERVING A WARRANT-AN UNEXPECTED DE?
NOUEMENT.-Some days ago a colored man named
Carolina Sumter assaulted a woman and gave her
a severe beating. The latter made her complalut
to Trial Justice Magrath, and a warraut was Issued
for the arrest of the offender. Armed with this
process of law the constable proceeded to the en?
closure or the Northeastern Railroad Depot, In
which there were Feveral cows just arrived by the
train, and among them a bull whose equanimity
had not yet been restored since the J'Htngand
other Indignities he had experienced ou the road.
Seeing his maa a little way off the constable walk?
ed boldly In towards him, but Carolina recogniz?
ing the officer, and suspecting the purpose of
lils visit, gave leg bail. The officer followed la
hot pursuit. At this crisis the bud, seeing
thc fun going on, gave ?a snort, and with
tall la air and head down rushed like mad at the
mau with the warrant. The onset was so suddea
that the constable could not get out of the way, and
before could he say "Jack Robinson." the horns
or the enraged animal were disposed about the
lower part or hi* person In way to give rull scope
to their projective force. In a niomeat the officer
was describing several fanciful evolutions lu the
air. landing on the other side of the railroad
track lo the mud. He got up to behold his four
footed assailant on the other side or the track,
maniresting every desire to renew the encounter.
No injuries resulted from the attack beyond the
spoiling of a Bult of clothes and a few bruises.
Carolina took advantage or this unexpected diver?
sion in his favor and effected his escape. Subse?
quently, however, the officer met with better luck,
and keeping a sharp lookout fur playful quadru?
peds, succeeded tu arresting Carolina, who was
brought before the trial justice, and having been
round guilty, was sentenced to pay a flue of $10
and costs or go to jail Tor thirty days.
