CRUMBS.-The new vane for the weather observatory will be erected this morning. Owing to the reugh weather, the boat race off the Battery did not take place on Saturday afternoon, as expected. THROUGH TRAVEL NORTH.-AS a statement has been put forth that persons from Charles? ton will be subjected to inconvenience and de? lay at Washington, we have been requested to state that such Is not the case-the trains passing around Wilmington, and not through that city. The only change made by recent events is that cars are changed at Florence, and that the sleeping cars have been taken irom the line. THE CROPS.-We make the following extract from a letter received by a prominent factor agetfcouae In this city : ORANGEBURG, August 25. We still continue to have a great dual of rain, but not so violent. The rains prior have been heavy, accompanied with high winds, al? most gales, and have done a large amount of damage to our crops. The writer now esti? mates, from information gathered, it will af? fect us fully one-third from the June and July prospects. We do not feel disposed to com? plain, but a great deal of damage Is done.. THE SCHOONER Wk. B. MANN_The revenue cutter Racer, Captain Sands, took charge of |&e schooner Wm. B. Mann, previously report? ed water-logged off EdiBto on Thursday at 2 P. M., and drifted her np to Brick Yard Creek and chartered the tug Ida to tow her through to Beaufort, S. C. Her hold ls full of lumber; spars and sails gone; standing rigging good. The deck is somewhat broken by the centre board being forced through it. The officers and men ol the Racer were employed two days in securing her. TBS RICE _gpp.-The New York Dally Bul. le tin cf Saturday, August 25, says : The Bteamer fames Adger .brought to Messrs. Dan Talmage'o Sons, of thlB city, the first shipment - of the "new crop" Carolina rice. The parcel was grown on the A g he poo River. ?In pr "of arrival it ls about the same as laet year, v .ch was fully three weeks in advance'of average season. It is bricht and Eearly in appearance, though considerably roken, as 1B common, with new rice, its sou condition rendering i Hm possible to dress with? out breaking, as the milling of the body bf the crop is not regularly commenced until the lat? te t part of September or the first ol October. We learn from Messrs. Taimage's Sonsthat the Cooper, Ashepoo, Santee and Savannah Rivers will show Increased production, and Irom Georgetown a very much larger yield than last year ls looked for. Everything has been favorable for the planter. Even the drought in the latter part of July and 1st of the present month has, by subsequent rains, been of great and lasting advantage. The harvesting bas commenced, and the results promise to yield up to the greatest anticipae Hons of the planters unless some untoward event should occur, as heavy rains or high winda As to the general quality of the year's crop, it Is expected that with the better car which ls bestowed from year to year propor? tionate improvement will be noted. r THE TRIAL JUSTICE WAR. "Let TJi Have Peace"-Startling Devel? opment ..* The arrest of the sailor Jamen Nash, on the charge of desertion from the schooner Edle Waitera, and the subsequent proceedings in hie case, have thrown the fraternity of. trial jus? tices into a state of excitement which, on the homeopathic principle, may protect them from the ravages of lever. The prisoner, as already reported In THE NEWS, was arrested on a war? rant issued by Trial Justice Levy, and was about to be turned over to his captain, when his counsel sued out a writ of Tutbeas corpus and brought him before Trial Jusstlces Bren? nan and Magrath, on the ground that he was illegally held by a trial justice, and had with? out a trial been ordered aboard the vessel from which, it was asserted, he bod deserted. The hearing took place on Saturday morning.and af? ter a cl ose Investigation the J us tl ce s decided that the prisoner should have a trial on the origi? nal charge?, and referred him back to Trial Jus? tice Levy for trial. In the meantime, Nash, whose sole object is to avoid going to sea, had acknowledged to the captain of the vessel that he was approach? ed by Lieutenant Philippy, of the detective force, who was in his favor, and was told by him that li he wanted to get off from going to sea, if the trial went against him, he must as? sault some one and beat him badly-the scheme being that, as soon as this was done, Nash would be arrested, taken before a trial justice, and, not being able to give bail, be committed to Jail to await bis trial at the Court of General Sessions. By the time the court met the schooner would be far away, and Nash would have accomplished his object of staying ashore. At five o'clock, the hour appointed, the trial came off before Trial Justice Levy, Trial Justice Brennan and Mackey being present to assist. The prisoner's counsel was not pres? ent. The evidence showed that Nash was an articled seaman, had deserted irom the schoon- ? er; and, further, that the captain, of. whom he seemed to be In great fear, and with whom he had sailed for over two years, had never ill treated him. In view of this, the prisoner was Ordered to be committed to jail to await the requisition of the captain on sailing; The con? stable then proceeded to conduct the prisoner to Jail. * Mindful of the advice of his wily friend, Nash began to look around for some subject upon which he could operate to advantage be? fore lils incarceration. In the door of the trial justice's office, and with his back turned, stood the bulky form of the lieutenant him? self, and Nash, seizing the propitious moment, and not recognizing his friend, applied bis heavy brogan to the most inviting spot, with a vigor which sent tho chief of detectives fly? ing into the street. This unexpected denoue? ment created considerable excitement, until the confession of Nash as to bis being Insti? gated to beat some one, turned the surprise into a hearty laugh at the way In which the lieutenant's advice had recoiled upon his own -person. A stricter watch being maintained on bis movements on the way, Nash was safely lodg? ed in jail. The rest ot the programme then began. Lieutenant PhUlppy, apparently en? raged at the assault upon his person and dig? nity; took ont a warrant from Trial Justice Schroder against Nash for an unprovoked as? sault, and Nash ls now in jail under his com? mitment. The- effect of this is to add one more trial justice to the-disputants, and to keep Nash in Jail notwithstanding the requisi? tion of'the captain. The latter is determined to maintain his rights, and it is hard te say how the matter will end. THE HEALTH OF THE CUT. The Yellow Fever Reports ana th* Effect-Progresa of the Disease-Sai tary Pr?cautions-Thc Great Radi? Higelra-'?Devil Take the H i nd mo. -TlicToM Shoulder from our IVelg bora- A Clean Bill of Health for t manhattan. - To unaccustomed ears there is somethi so awe-inspiring in the very name of Yelli Fever that it ls not surprising that the st? gers within our gates have been considera! alarmed, some of them having moved bag a baggage upon the first wild reports that ie* had made its appearance. There was a reas for this demoralization; and those who ha homes elsewhere, or who have no duties discharge in Charleston, were, perhaps, rig if they did not delay in winging their flight the pine-lands of Summerville, the magnifi?e distances of Columbia, or the bustling cities the North and West. Self-preservation ls tl I first law ot nature, and the refugees had i idea of being caught napping. And yet, whi there ls abundant reason for care ai precaution, there is no cause for mo tal alarm. The disease, if spreading all, 1B moving with a slowness whit contrasts auspiciously with the usual rapidl of Its strides. The number ol new cases ls 1 significant, and the deaths, from all cause are below the average. This is encouraging and should serve to disabuse the timid ones < the idea that, because there is fever in lt city, half the resident population are doom? to die. A few days ago lt was reported in Ai gusta that Charleston had hardly enoug healthy inhabitants to nurse the Bick and bui the dead. This, as we know, was a fearfi exaggeration, considering that from the bi ? ginning, more than a month ago, we have ha less than a dozen deaths by fever; but the tei dency of the alarmed mind is to magnify tb danger a hundred-fold, if only as an excus for its own fears, and this disposition shoul be carefully guarded against. At this momer the situation is grave, but there ls still rooi for the hope that the disease will not be wid< spread, and that lt will not become a serlon epidemic. PROGRESS OF THE DISEASE. Since the publication of the report of tb Medical Society, dated Friday noon, a few ne cases of yellow fever have been reported t the health officer, and one or two deaths. A ls usual at such times, almost every' case c illness, from any cause whatever, ls; looke upon with suspicion, if not with alarm. Th! disposition to be frightened, however, we ar glad to see, ls diminishing, and the pubil mind is in a fair way, we think, to look calm ly and hopefully even at the visitation, am manfully frown down all unnecessary scare and all disposition to exaggeration. GOLDEN RULES. Every resident of Charleston who is not ac climatized, or who is ".feely to have lost his ac climatiz itlon, should be careful to avoid, a ! far as possible, all occasions of danger. Th< genera^ rules may be summed up thus : 1. Keep your lot clean, and make a libera use of disinfectants. 2. Avoid the night air, and stay withii doors after sunset When 'obliged to go out a night, use an umbrella. 3. Be temperate in eating and drinking, par tlcularly the latter. 4. Be cleanly In your habits. Cold watet never kills. 5. As Boon as you feel unwell. Bend for joui physician. The usual symptoms of fever are An acute pain in the head, of the kind knowr as Bick headache; a Be vere pain in the back; a chill, such as the Chickahomlny swamps gav? the bare-footed boys in war times. When yoi have the chill, or the back-ache or the head? ache, send io: the physician post-haste. Bettei cry Wolf than be too late In Bounding the alarm. 6. Keep cool. Any person who iollows these general rules stands a good chance of escaping from the clutches of fever. For thia fever, with earl j medical attendance and good nuning, is not ai fatal as sm al l-pox,or cholera,or "country fever* or other diseases which might be named. Thc early cases are the worst, because the Bick, un? conscious of the gravity of the case, are tardy lc taking the proper remedies, but, unless the disease is of a peculiarly malignant type, the actual mortality, where proper care ls taken, is extremely small. THE RADICAL OFFICIALS. The alarm of sickness has sh own the charac? ter of most of the Fidlcal officials in all their native deformity. The Mayor "sticks" for the piesent, but with that exception nearly the whole covey have winged their flight North? ward; General Gurney, the county treasurer, 1B away, and the duties of his responsible office are discharged by Inexperienced subordinates. Sh erlff Mack ey has not Bbown his bead for some weeks, but he is reported to be Bick in New York. The coroner, Mr. Taft, slipped off some time ago, and makes no sUn of returning. But worst of all ls the case of Captain Jenks, tbe city Inspector. This official has charge of the streets. It is his duty to keep the city Clean and wholesome. By neglecting this work, while "grinding axes" for Mayor Pills? bury, he allowed Charleston to become indes? cribably filthy. Upon his shoulders rests the main responsibility for that wanton disregard of the plainest sanitary ruies which brought the fever upon us. Immediately after the election he went to the North, where he stays. As for the city he ?eaves her, ?lke a cast? off mistress, to perish from the disease which he has given her. These Badicai officials are fine-weather blrd9. They will draw their pay while the sun shines, but they flee like the wind at the first note of danger. What do the colored voters who (In fact) elected these men to office, think of their conduct now ? For dis? ease ls no respecter of persons. The blacks as well as the whites must suffer from the criminal carelessness of the Radical office? holders. Shall not this be remembered al the next election day ? THE TlDLS'GS ABROAD. In Augusta. Savannah and Wilmington the tidings that tbe fever was in Charleston ere ,ated a wild excitement. Augusta bas establlBhed^a rigid quarantine, and all the cars for that city, coming from Charleston, are opened and ventilated before they enter the corporate limits. A meeting of citizens is to be held this morning "for the purpose of considering what action, if any, the City Council should be recommended to take with regard to the yellow fever in Charleston, and the intercourse between that city and this." The Constitutionalist suggests mat Au? gusta follow the example of Wilmington, and bar out all persons coming from Charleston. The city is in a cleanly condition, and a gene? ral cleaning up goes on. ' Savannah has put on her armor of proof. We understand that the trains for Savannah Irom Charleston, are stopped at Monteith 'Station, where the passengers are subjected to the inspection of a Savannah physician before the train is allowed to proceed. Wilmington is in a fever of excitement. The through cars between Charleston and that city are taken off, and the luxurious Bleeping cars are discontinued. On Saturday the authorities gave notice that no person coming from Charleston would be allowed to enter Wil? mington, and that any person from Wilming? ton who might go to Charleston would not be allowed to re-enter Wilmington until the fever 1 was at an encl. Under the circumstance?, there will not be much visiting between the two cities for Borne weeks to come. Prayers were offered up in the churches yesterday that the city might be spared the ravages of the fever. This was done at the request of the Mayor. The Journal promises to give its readers all the newe, and hopes that there will be no panic. - , . THE STEAMSHIP LISES. All sorts of rumors were flying about on Saturday. The Manhattan which did not sail, as appointed, on account or the heavy sea on the bar, was reported to be detained by the port physician. There was, of course, no truth in this wild statement. The city registrar and port physician, Dr. Robert Lebby, does not consider the fever to be epidemic, and we un? derstand that the Manhattan-the passengers ind ship having been carfully examined jailed yesterday with a clean bill of health. A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE. two Stores Destroyed and One Serious? ly Damaged. Between half-past 10 and ll o'clock Satur? day night, a fire broke out on the west side of Sleeting treet, three doors below Hasel, which resulted in the total destruction of the two fine buildings owned by Messrs. Jennings, Thom Jason & Co., and then occupied by Mr. J. C. tfadseu as a tobacco store, and by Mr. Leng aick as a fancy goods and notion establish nent. The fire originated in the back part of Madsen's store, and owing to the inflammable iature of the stock, was weil under way when :he engines arrived. The flames then com? municated to the adjoining store of Mr. Leng alck, and, being fed by light and inflammable articles composing the stock, both buildings vere Boon enveloped in a tremendous ?laze. The engines, although they had been tt work all day on the streets, pumping jut, were worked with vigor and alacrity, and l>y their efforts the fire was confined to the :wo buildings already named. These, with the stock contained in them, were totally de? stroyed. The wholesale shoe store of Messrs. E. B. Stoddard di Co., adjoining Mads en's cigar store on the north, was also considerably dam? aged by the heat. It was broken into, to afford a stand from which the streams from the engines could be brought to play upon the fire, and the water thrown into lt to pre? vent its taking fire did much damage to the stock. The insurance, as far as we have been able to learn, is as follows: E. B. Stoddard 4 Co., building Insured for (5000 In the Home Insurance Company, of New York, Major Hutson Lee, agent. Stock Insured for $25,000 in the Germania, Colburn k Howell, agents; the North British Mercan? tile, E. B. Sebring & Co, agents; and the Georgia Home Insurance Company, Hutson Lee, agent. C. A. Lengnick, fancy goods, notions, Ac. Stock, total loss. Insured for $5000 in Mr. A. L. Tobias's agency. J. C. Madsen, cigars and tobacco, total loss, insured forlGOOO in the" agency of Messrs. Barenel <fc Huger. The building In which the two last mention? ed stores were. established was owned by Messrs. Jennings, Tomlloson & Co., and was Insured for $5000. Ol this, there were $2000, upon the store occupied by Mr. Lengnlck, in the London, Liverpool and Globe Insurance Company, Lowndes & Co., agents. In addition to his stock, Mr. MadHen had (100 in cash in his money drawer, which was lost with the rest. The origin of the fire is a mystery. It certainly began in the back part of Mr. Madsen's store, but that gentleman says that he shut up at 10 o'clock, and had no fire on the premises. The gas jet was in the iront of the store. During the confusion the usual hangers-on were present, on the lookout for an opportu? nity of plundering, and much stealing went on. Three colored youths, named Thomas Perry, Prince Johnson and George Bryan, were detected In the act ol making their es? cape with a. lot of fine boots, shoes, straw hats and fancy goods, and having been turned over to a policeman, were taken with their plunder to the Guardhouse. They will have a hearing before the Mayor this morning. EARRINGS FOR SALE.-Bichard Burben, a colored man, was arrested on Saturday even? ing by the detectives charged with having stolen a pair of gold earrings, which he was offering for Bale. Richard says tbat they are the property of his wife, and that he was offer? ing them for sale to get the money to bu; pro? visions with. He is held for examination. . CLUBS AND STARS.-M. Powers, reported by Dr. Lebby for throwing offal in a lot in Smith street, had the bearing of his case deferred until this morning. Henry Frost, colored, lodged for disorderly conduct and abusing the police at the South Carolina Railroad Depot, was sentenced to pay a fine of five dollars or spend ten days in the House of Correction. Samuel Simmons, for being drunk and re? sisting the police in Meeting street, was visited with a like sentence. M. Hogan, S. Jones and M. Blake, reported for keeping hogs upon their premises, were sentenced to pay a fine of one dollar tor each hog. F. Brown and Henry Pinckney, lodged for larceny, were held for examination. One goat, found astray in Coming street, was released on the application of the owner. SULLIVAN'S ISLAND REGATTA CLUB.-At a meeting of this club, held at their rooms on the evening of the 25th, lt was arranged that* the monthly race should take place on Satur day, the 2d ot September. The boats to start from the Ferry wharf, on Sullivan's Island, at 4 o'clock, rounding Fort Ripley and back to the wharf. Judges-Colonel R. S. Duryea, Dr. C. C. Patrick, Robert F. Touhey, Henry F. O'Neill. Mr. John M. Touhey, the president of the club, tendered his resignation, whereupon Captain W. Aiken Kelly was unanimously elected president. The following resolutions were offered by Dr. J. B. Patrick and unani? mously passed by the club: Resolved, That in accepting the resignation of Mr. John M. Touhey, as president of our club, be be declared aud registered an honor? ary member. Resolved, That his unlior'n courtesy as pre? siding officer, and tbe zea. manifested in all affairs promoting its interests, merit our warm approbation. BLOODY AFFRAT.-Saturday evening, about half-past seven o'clock, two young men, Kelly and George Burke, the latter a consta? ble of one ol our numerous trial justices, be? came engaged la an altercation, which ended in a sharp quarrel. Burke put his hand to his back as if to draw a weapon, when Kelly told him if he was a man they would settle lt by a fair fight. The two then went in. when Kelly knocked down his antagonist, and was about to give him a good beating when Burke drew a large pocketknife and began to cut at Kelly. The bystanders interfered, but not before Kelly had received several severe cuts. The wound? ed man, bleeding fearfully, was taken into Dr. Raoul's drug store, where his wounds were dressed by the doctor, assisted by Dr. T. S Thomson. He was found to have received one Btab in the chest, one a few inches lower, one In the arm. aud four in his back. The wounds are severe, but are not considered fatal. The wounded mau was afterwards taken to his home, and when last heard from was doing well. SUDDEN DEATH.-About half-past G o'clock on Saturday afternoon, a colored woman named Rosanna Gaillard, twenty-Bix years of age, dropped dead suddenly In Judith street. She had been out visiting, and was returning home with her child in her arms, when she was seen to fall forward on her face on the sidewalk. Some men near by ran lo her as? sistance, but she was dead before they cculd pick her up. The coroner having been noti? fied, an inquest was heid over the body. A post-mortem examination having been held, it was found that her liver had been disturbed to nearly three times its natural size, and the Jury returned a verdict of death (rom enlarge? ment of the same.
