Mica is another add don to the |1 long list of minerals lound' with n the broad bojom ol'South Carolina.

CLUBS AND STARS_Alfred Smith, lodge d for lying down drunk on the sidewalk in Me ^ting | y [ street, was sentenced to pay a fine of fiv J dol? lars or spend five days in the House of Correc? tion. James Giles, colored, arrested for peddling chickens without a license, was -fined two dollars. Henry Nelson and Thomas Black, lodged for being disorderly and using abusive language to a man in Nassau street, were sentenced to, paya fine of dv? dollars each ov goto the j c House ol Correction for Lve days. Lizzie Aiken, a colored girl, taken up for vagrancy and being drunk and disorderly on Church street, was sent to the House of Cor. retolon for thirty days. STREET SWEEPING.-A few days ago thc at? tention of the public was called to the sections of a city ordinance, published in THE NEWS, recoiling the occupants o? dwellings and lots to keep the same clean, and also to sweep the sidewalk and gutter in front o? the lots. This matter has been neglected by many, and offi? cers are now going around to report such resi? dents as have not complied with the ordinance. About thirteen lot-holders In King, East *ay, Anson and Calhoun streets, were reported yesterday to the Mayor and, almost without exception, fined five dollars each. Ia several lots the drain on the premises w^3 in a filthy condition, and the gutters into which they flowed still worse. These latter are the prin? cipal sources of disease, and should by all means be kept clean. FIRE ALARMS.-The committee appointed by the Board of Underwriters at their last meet? ing, consisting ot Messrs. A. L. Tobias, W. B. .Heriot, Hutson Lie and William Thayer, to wait upon the city authorities and represent ^to them the present insufficient system of fire alarms, called upon the Mayor yesterday morn? ing and represented to him the increased loss which had been suffered by the Insurance com? panies at the recent large fires, owing to the tardiness with which the alarm of fire had been given and rung by the bells. The Mayor received the deputation with all courtesy, and mentioning that this fact had already been abtlced by him, promised to do all in h s power to amend the present system. The matter ls one o? serious importance to the underwrit? ers, and lt ls of the highest consequence to them that alarms of fire should be speedily communicated to our efficient fire depart? ment. Time, in this case certainly, is money, and as the insurance companies pay an enor? mous tax to the city, they are entitled to all the immunities and safeguards which the au? thorities can throw around their risks. MAN DROWNED IN ASHLEY RIVER-INQUEST. Las t Saturday morning, a colored man named Joseph Rogers, with two other men, at? tempted to cross Ashley River in a bateau, from the Magnolia Works, at Mr. Trenholm's place, to the phosphate works at Lamb's farm. The crate, which was nothing more than an exaggerated coffin, being thirteen ieet long, one and a half feet wide and a half loot deep, began to takeln water and sank In the mid? dle of the river. The two other men clung to th? boat, but Rogers struck out for the shore. He swam about fifty yards and then was seen to sink: His brother was coming behind in a smell boat, but before he reached Rogers the latter sank for the second and last time. The two other men were fished up, and a search i was instituted for the body of the drowned man. This proved unsuocesslul until Monday morning, when, alter much dragging and dis? charging ol guns, lt rose to the surface and was taken ashore. The coroner was notified, andan inquest was held over the body on Tuesday evening, at Lamb's farm. The jury returned a verdict ol' death lroin accidental drowning. SEWS ABOUT TBE FEVER. The Mortality. The city registrar reports the receipt of five certificates ol death from yellow fever in the twenty-four hours ending at noon yesterday. It is now proposed, we believe, to make up the reports to 9 o'clock at night, and to re? quire all deaths to be reported before 8 o'clock P. M. on the daj of ihe occurrence. This would be a good move, and we hope the Board of Health will take it under advisement. WEDNESDAY'S REPORT. OFFICE OF BOARD OF HEALTH, \ CHARLESTON. September 6,1871-12 M. j Five (5) certificates of death irom yellow fever received since last report. (Signed) ROBERT LEBBT, M. D., City Registrar. Negro Philanthropy. On Tuesday afternoon assistance was asked of the Howard Association for a colored woman and her sick child, who had been taken with the fever and were lying in a house in Church street At the office of the association there were several colored nurses who had tendered their services (to be paid lor) to the associa? tion, and one of these was dispatched to the house. Upon finding that the sick personB were of her own color, the nurse returned in disgust saying "she was hired to attend white people and not niggers," and could not be in? duced to wait on the sufferers. The other col? ored nurses made the same point At length one of the directors or the association was sent down, who instructed the sick woman to hire any nurse she knew of, at the expense of I the association. But we believe that one of J the regular nurses afterward changed her mind. We may mention, in this connection, that the association, like true charity, knows no distinction of race or condition. The Head and Front ot their Offending. At 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon several cow-heads were lying in St. Philip street near the Upper Market Either the contractor or the lot-holder is the guilty party; but while mis question of responsibility ls under consid? eration, somebody had better remove the lead-heads for the general benefit of the city.

Waring, "*which took place at six o'clock yesterday morning at his resi? dence, at the corner of Ashley and Cannon streets. Mr. Waring was born In 1819 on his father's plantation near Summerville, and was educa? ted In Charleston. When about seventeen years old he entered the counting-house of j Messrs. James E. Ladson & Co., where he re? mained tor nearly two years. This training was o? great value, and to lt Mr. Waring, with characteristic modesty, was wont to at? tribute the marked success which he met with in commercial life. Mr. Warle g was then ap? pointed assistant to his uncle, Mr. Wm. A. Hayne, the bookkeeper of the Bank of the State of South Carolina. The intelligence and ability of Mr. Waring gained for him steady promotion, and, after passing through the intermediate offices, he became cashier of the bank. This position he held until 1869, dis? charging his arduous and Important duties with signal ability. Upon the clos lng up of the bank with which he had so long been connected, Mr. Waring accepted the position of cashier of | the South Carolina Loan and Trust Company, which office he held up to the day of his death. AB a public officer, Mr. Waring was particular? ly urbane and attentive,enjoying the affection? ate respect of all who were thrown in contact with him. In private life, he was a general favorite. His equable temperament and gentle manners enabled him to win friends and keep them. The palnfal disease which caused his death had troubled bim for years, and in July last be went to Europe with the hope of improving bis condition. Upon arriving at Liverpool, it was evident that his case was hopeless, and he was advised by the most prominent physicians Lo return at once to his home. It was at one time very doubtful whether he would ever see Charleston again; but the assiduous care of his mending physician secured to him the Bad pleasure of dying in the bosom of his family, j < n the midst ot his beloved people. All Charles-11 ion will bear of his decease with sincere and reen regret. The funeral of Mr. Waring will take place at j he Church of the Holy Communion this morn- i ng, at 10 o'clock. j A CHABLESTONIAN IN THE WEST.-We have j eceived some copies ol the Baxter Springs -, Examiner, a large and handsome weekly, the -j )u bi i cation of which bas lately been commenc- j id at Baxter Springs, Kansas, by Messrs.

His * nany friends In this city wlH wish the young Durnalist abundant success in his Western areer. THE WEATHER.-About two o'clock yeater lay morning a gentle rain began to lall, and ontlnned with but a few short Intermissions p to a late hour last night. The rain seems 0 have been very general, as lt lasted all day 1 Columbia, and the Savannah dispatches lated last night that it had been raining In lat city lor the past twenty-four hours. It ni y served to render the streets muddy and npleasant, and did no damage beyond the iterrupting the planters in the midst of their UBlest picking season. DEATH OF THE HON. MATTHEW SOLANA.-We ike lrom the St. Augustine Examiner, of the i, the following notice of the death o? this ell-known gentleman : It becomes our painful duty to announce ie death of our highly esteemed citizen and me-honored friend, the Hon.
