forNew York, cm saturday last, with a crowd of
passengers, some one hundred m number, and a
large and valuable freight list, among which
wetje some 5000 packages of Charleston vegeta*
bles. The heavy business uow doing by this Une
ls a sure Indication of the high appreciation by
the public of the excellence of these well-rn a naged
steamers.
ATTEMPTED SUICIDE.-Saturday morning,
about 5 o'clock, Mr. Joseph He wit, ss years of age,
proprietor of the Point House, (Sullivan's Island,)
attempted whUe In a state of mental depression
to commit suicide by cutting his throat with a
razer. He drew the instrument four times across
his throat, but failed to inflict a fatal wound. Ur.
G. S. Pe: ?er was hastily sent for, who stopped the
hemorrhage, and had the patient conveyed to the
City Hospital, where the wound was sewed up by
Dr. J. S. Buist, the surgeon-of the hospital. Mr.
Hewit, we understand, ls now In a fair way of
recovering.
THE WEST END- IMPROVEMENTS.-About six
months ago the City Council returued a favorable
answer to the petition of citizen? residing near
the West Eud pond asking for the improvement
of that valuable property. Alderman Potter,
chairman of the committee on streets, at once
commenced operations which hav-Ajjeen progress?
ing ever since. The pond was drained and
dampened,?the mud that was excavateds*e<$|ng
nsed^o-form a sidewalk. This portion--of the
work was completed on Saturday, and the water
turned on. ttep?rmUs cow quite an ornament
to the city, and will dwB^es? enhance the value
of property in i hat section. At present ?he walk
formed by the mud ls unfit for use, bnt the street
contractor could easily remedy thisby applying
some of the street sweepings to the uneven sur?
face. Great praise ls due Alderman Potter for
the commendable zeal with wnlch lie has pushed
forward this undertaking, and lt ls hoped Its com?
pletion ls not far distant

held for examination.
DEATH OF JOHN CAMPSEN.-It becomes our
sad duty to cu-onte'e. the death , of Mr. John
Campsen, one of the mos: prominent of our Ger?
man feliow-cltizens. Mr. C. was born la North
Germany, in thc vicinity or Bremen, and came to
this country when quite a youth. When the Pal?
me to Regiment was organized to take the field
lu Mexico, he became a member or that gallant
band. He took part m several battles, and in one
was severely wounded. Aftef his recovery, he
commenced business In this city, first in an hum?
ble way, but by dint of Industry, economy,
energy and business tact, he gradually enlarged
hts Held, till he became one of the prominent
merchants of Charleston. He was a public-spirit?
ed citizen, and brough: the same energy and
Industry to bear upon any pub Ic enterprise en?
trusted to his care that he habitually did to his
p?rate affairs. He was a member of many of the
German societies, and at different times had
held many ?nices, ile was a strong friend, large?
hearted aud generous, and his loss will be
seriously felt. Mr. Campsen was about forty-two
years of age, and leaves a wife and several chil?
dren to deplore ficlr Irreparable loss.
TUE NEW GERMAN CHURCH.-The green young
tree which may havebeeu observed at the sum?
mit of the scaffolding around the steeple of the
new German Church announced that the topmost
height of the proposed steeple had been reached.
The event was celebrated on Saturday afternoon
oy a collation, given by the building committee to
the workmen engaged in the construction of the
edifice. The substantials were discuss d with
relish, and the affair, enlivened by sentiments
and feelings of good will, passed off In the a. -st
agreeable manner. The pastor, Rev. L. Muller
and Mr. N. Fehrenbach, of the committee, asceird
ed the lotty scaffolding, and round everything
Axed to their utmost satisfaction. Thc emblem
at the summit consists of two large clreu'ar
wreaths or evergreen bisecting each other. They
are over four feet In diameter, but look quite
small rrom the evel or the street, Tne apex-of
the steeple now stands two hundred and thirty,
six feet high from the ground, and overtops all
other domes aud spires In the city. The orna?
ments and vane which will finish it off wlU add
ten feet more, maklug the lofty height of two han
?died and forty-six feet.

A I" LEA s AXT EXCURSION'.- The steamer
Emilie left South Commercial wharf on Saturday
afternoon, with a large number of passengers
aboard, among whom were many gentlemen and
ladles, friends of thc gallant Captain Murden, in
honor of whom the excursion was given. The
I boat proceeded down the harbor, and. passing
close to old Fort Sumter and Sullivan's Island, re
turned up the Ashley as far as the New Bridge.
A view of tb* city was also presented to the e."
cnrsiot.lats from the Cooper River, which the
steamer ascended for some distance. The depar?
ture of thc Champion was also witnessed, and
numerous sailing parties enconntered In the
harbor. The Chlcora Cornet Band added much j
to the pleasures of the trip. With Tully In the
background every one felt satisfied, and several
enthusiasts expressed the opinion that "a lire on
the ocean \* ave" was not the most disagreeable
thing In the world. The delightful music of
course suggested dancing, and the steamer land?
ed about 7 o'clock, just as a quadrille was being
executed on the quarter deck, and two Terpsi?
chorean enthusiasts were enjoying a waltz on
the wheelhouse.
THE LAST OF THE TOURNAMENT-THE VICTO?
RIOUS ! ?TONK WALLS.-Owing to the lateness of the^
hour, only two of the engines which had entered
the list? for distance playing were able to show
their skill on the day or the tournament, bu: the
Stonewalls, nothing daunted by the immense dis?
tance -Accomplished by their antagonists, deter?
mined *.o take their chance, on Saturday after?
noon, about six o'clock, thc handsome engine,
fully manned, was taken down to the corner of
Broad and King streets, and tho judges, Messrs.
Lacoste, Jarvis and Wh:te, being on the ground,
the preparations for the trial were speedily
cou eluded. Under a full heal of steam, the
engine threw a solid stream or water to a
magulf.cent distance, but it was long oe
fore the mark or the Palmcttoes cculd
be reached. The afternoon was calm and sTlll,
however, and, as the time allowed was drawing
to a close, the engine seemed to gather Its
strength for a final effort. The quivering of the
machine showed the immense pressure of steam,
i and. amid the vociferous cheering or thc crowd,
the volume of water from the nozzle described a
tremen Jous arch down the street. The farthest
r-ach was accurately kept, and, as the measuring
began, hundreds of excited firemen followed the
judges and their tape line. The summing up was
done auld the silence of the dense throng, and,
when the unparalleled distance of 262 feet and 5
Inches <vas announced, hats flew Into the air, aud
repeatei cheers balled the victors In the friendly
contest. The handsome pr'-.e, a sliver pitcher,
was delivered to President Buist; of the Stonewall,
and ls cn exhibition at the engine-house. A large
number of the Palmetto boys wer? on the ground
and magnanimously Joined in greeting the undis?
puted v.cCory of the Stonewalls, oflerlr.g their con?
gratulai Ions in the form of three cheers and a ti?
ger. They then manned the machine of their
ric torio as antagonists, and, followed by the latter,
marching arm and arm, led the way to the Stone?
wall engine-house. The festivities which followed
during t he evening can better be imagined than
describa!, and several bowls of that felicitous
compouud, known as. .punch, .were disnosecLof

No MORE PRISONERS TO BE RECEIVED IN
CHARLESTON JAIV-In a letter addressed to the
trial justices of Charleston Couuty . Sheriff Mackey
says :
I am constrained to notify yoa that on the 25th
day or the present month, 1 shall cease to receive
any prisoners at the Charleston jail. The county
authorities'being eight months tn arrears or pay?
ment due this office for the dieting of prisoners,
and also being indebted to me in a large amount
Tor services rendered during the paat ye ir In
criminal cases, and as I cannot even procure
checks upon the county trcasuty for my current,
accounts, and as sucn checks ir procured would
not be paid by the treasurer, I am unable to ob?
tain the necessary subsistence for prisoners, of J
whom there are already a large number in jail,
and neither the law of the State or my
own 6ense or haminlty would warrant
me in starving them. I have, no discre?
tion, therefore, having exhausted every
other resource, bat to refuse to receive prisoners
until I ara paid pursuant to law ror dieting them.
I deem lt proper to add that. In response ta my
inquiries, J have learned that I cannot obtain any
money from the county for au Indefinite period
at least for many months to come, and perhaps
never. Hence, I have no alternative but th?
coarse that I have reluctantly decided upon. I
would.contmae to receive prlsnneis If the minds
of dealers m provisions could bc disabused ol the
"very common prejudice among them that they
should ba paul within -a reasonable time fox the
suprHUs that they furnish, or ir theyootild-Be in?
duced to Ruppiy provisions on the- credtr. of the
county, or take county checks in payment of
their btlls. I shall be very happy to have any ac?
tion lu thc premises, brought under judicial re?
view, and trust rhat I will thereby obtain a legal
decision, whi?Jxmay furnish scfrne remedy JOT the
great era harassment s'^to puhocvTlcers incident
to Ute existing adm t nlst rat ion Of the fiscal affairs
of this county. < If there is.-a'WBjiedy ror this
