A COLT NAVT.-James Drayton and Samuel Deveaux, two youths of color, were picked up by the police on Saturday night, In King street, while offering for sale at a very low figure a handsome Colt navy revolver. The parties were taken to the Guardhouse, and nothing being proved ag? inst them, they were dis? charged yesterday morning. The pistol was retained. It is a fine weapon, and was loaded In every chamber when taken from the boys. SHORT HOLIDAY.-Hen Tohnson, an old of? fender, who was released lrom jail only a few days ago, was brought before Trial Justice Levy, yesterday morning, and tried on the charge of stealing a lot ol clothing from Hetty Tailor, who resides up the road, about three miles from the city. He was found guilty.and, with a smile, Henry heard himself sent to Sheriff Mackey's hotel for a term of thirty days. Henry's class In the Jail school will not have got very far ahead ol him dui lng his short holiday. STREET ROBBERT.-Yesterday afternoon, an a small colored child, aged seven years, was taking a bundle of clothing to her mother up King street, she was approached by a girl ol about seventeen years of age, and persuaded to go over to St. Philip street. The girl led the child to Coming street, when she seized i].ie bundle, and pushing the child Into a gate, ^nade off up the street with her prize. The affair was seen by some workmen on a neigh? boring house, who did not suspect anything wrong. The thief bas not etnee been heard lrom. THE YOUNG MEN TO THE FRONT.-The Rich? mond correspondent of the Petersburg Index says: Richmond is so wholly in the hands of the young men li Is quite impossible for an old man. aod most of ail an old politician, to get the smallest show. The men who controlled Rieb moud ten years ago have no mero au? thority here now than they have in the gov? ernment of the Chiuese Empire. And we are no worse off because this ls true. It was .he young men of Charleston who or? ganized, and won, the last municipal election. And they are only beginning to show what they ian do. ?. -. A/PKAL. -John Long, the colored man who wr.s fined ten dollars by the Mayor on Satur? day morning, for throwing a brick at a color? ed girl in the company of M. Lawrence, In Longitude lane, appealed lrom the fine, and yesterday morning the case was heard before Trittl Justice T. J. Mackey. The evidence showed that Long had hurled a brick through the window of Lawrence's house at the loving couple wit lin, but neither of the latter was hit, and the outcry was occasioned more by the alarm than any hurt. Long was found "not guilty'' of assault and battery, but guilty of a breach of the peace, and sentenced to pay a tine of one dollar and costs, which he paid. CLUBS AND STARS.-Rachel Bush, a colored woman, arrested for being drunk and disorder? ly and resisting the police, at the corner of King and Calhoun streets, forfeited a deposit of five dollars', by not appearing before the Mayor. Thos. Munroe, arrested for disorderly con? duct on the premises of Mrs. Riley, In Went? worth street, was discharged, tv Ed. Robinson and Wm. Johnson, lodged for ^belng drunk and fighting at the corner ol Tradu and Friend streets, were tried and sen? tenced, the former to pay a fine of five dollars or spend ten days in the House ol Correction, and the latter to pay ten dollars with an alter? native ol twenty days in the same place. Two parties, for being drunk and disorderly on the street?, were sentenced each to pay a fine of five dellars or go to the House of Cor? rection for ten days. A pair of fowls taken froi \ colored boy, named March Waring, and supposed to have been stolen, were left at the Guardhouse to be delivered to the owner. COTTON ROBBERT ON DANIEL'S ISLAND.-Be? tween midnight and daylight Monday morning the cotton barn belonging to Mr. Richard Fur man, of Daniel's Island, was broken Into, and over three hundred pounds of fine Bea island cotton carried off. The traces of the robbery and the tracks of the thieves were found next morning pointing to the direction of the river, and lt was immediately suspected that the cot? ton had been brought to the city. Robert L. Seals, the energetic foreman of the plantation, came to the city, and having made an affidavit before Trial Justice Magrath, took a warrant for the arrest ot two freedmen from the Island who were suspected. It was also found that a large lot of cotton had been sold yesterday morning to a storekeeper on Calhoun street, where the country people lrom up the river were accustomed to land and trade. The two colored men, Tom Jones and Wm. Smith, were arrested, and upon being carried before the storekeeper he Immediately Identified them as the parties from whom he had bought the cot? ton that morning. The cotton was delivered up by the buyer, and the two prisoners were committed to jail In default of ball to await1 their .rial at the next term of the Court of general Sessions. JE HEALTH OF CHARLESTON. A meeting ol the presidents of the commit? tees of citizens appointed to visit the various wards in the city was held yesterday morn? ing. They reported thal every ward had been inspected, each lot having been carefully ex? amined, and instructed the chairman to report to the Mayor the result Of their operations, as follows: The reports from (ht cariotta wards s'<ow the city tobe in a remarkably healthy condition, even when compared with years in which no yellow fever existed. The number of cases of yellow fever, nore tn course of treatment, does net exceed an average of two in each xcard, and the number of persons sk!: from o.'.'ier causes is astonishingly few. The committees who make this report are composed of intelligent and trustworthy citi? zens, who have personally visited every hole and corner in Charleston. They are confident that there are riot more than sixteen cases of yellow fever in the whole city; and we may expect that the mortality lor the rest of the season will be insignificant. Only one death from yellow fever was re? ported yesterday-that of a colored man, named Greene, who died on the 17th. The total number of deaths from fever from July 25 lo date, is 57. MONDAY'S REPORT. OFFICE BOARD OF HEALTH, ) CHARLESTON', September 18,1671-12 M. f One (1) certificate ol'death from yellow lever received 6iuce last report. ROBERT LEBBY. M. D., City Registrar. In addition to the above, the following have been received since last report: One for cancer of stomach, dated September 16th. One for convulsions, dated September 10th. One for disease of brain, dated September 15th. One for insanity, dated September 16th. One for fever, bilious remittent, dated Sep? tember ICth. One for old aire, dated September 15th. One for scalding, effects ol', dated September 16tb. One for tetanus, from gun-shot wound, dated September 171 h. DEATH OF A CHARLESTON PRINTER.-Mr. T. F. Callahan, a young and promising member ol the typographical profession, died at his residence in this city yesterday, after a briet illness of bilioti8-remIltent fever. THE OLD POSTOFFICE is belog treated to a ' new coat of white paint on Its front, and im- 1 proves vastly in appearance under the brush. The work on the interior is going on vigorous? ly, (.nd the arrival of the boxes Irom Washing? ton is expected every day. CRUMBS.-A Columbia fair one horsewhipped 1 a loafer, was tried for assault and triumphant? ly acquitted. I Mrs. K, 3. Savage's school will commence , its exercises on Monday, the 2d of October. ? The steamer Pilot Boy will not receive for , Port Boyal and Spanish Wells this trip. , '.NOT FOR JOE.''-Joe Simons, the unblush? ing young darkey who entered the residence i of Lieutenant-Governor Rans'er and eased the t gubernatorial pockets of over fifty dollars in t loose change, has at last met with his deserts, t He was examined yesterday before Trial Jus I lice Magrath, and committed for trial before 1 the Court of General Sessions. CABBAGES IN DISGUISE.-Notwithstanding the sanitary edict of the authorities against ( the Importation of these dainties, it is a mel- 1 aicholy fact that the contraband cabbages are 1 still brought lo. Hogsheads of them, encased 1 in straw, are hauled through our EtreelR and, ( safe under their harmless label of "red ' onions." are deposited in front of the dealer's i store. Dealers and consumers alike are Shake? spearean in their philosophy, and think a rose by any other name smells Just as sweet. The appetite for the noble vegetable ls stronger far than the lear of the fever. Let the author- j ?ties keep a sharp look out, or they will be suspected of hav' g a hand in all the " cab? baging"' going on In Charleston. THE SOUTH CAROLINA BENEVOLENT ASSOCIA? TION.-A meet i og of this association, organized about a month ago by a number of young men . of Ihe city for charitable purposes, was held on Friday evening at the hall of the German Fire Company. Seven appllcanis were elected i members of the society, and the reports made show that the association ls steadily progres- , sing in its work of relieving the necessities of the sick and poor. Numerous cases ol distress have been relieved, and the sick whose care ? have been undertaken by the cotnmitiee have experienced the best of nursing and attention, i The association has done well, and the young men composing it deserve great credit for their enterprise. A THIRD BURGLART AT MR. HAPPOLDTB STORE.-THE BOOBERS CAUGHT FOR ONCE. On Thursday night the establishment ol Mr. John H. Happo?dt, ai the northwest corner of Meeting street and Horibeck's ailey, was en lered, and robbed lor the third time in a year. The burglars made their approach through the back yard, and effected an entrance to the 6hop by breaking one of the shutters in the back window, just below where it is crossed by the diagonal iron bar. A light was burning in the store, and on surveying the interior they were apparently struck with some prep? arations for their coming, which deterred them from entering through the hole they had made. By reaching in, however, they managed to get hold of a shot gun which they carmd .iff, with one cr two articles ot less importance. The proprietor dui not know ot the robbery until next morning, when the shop was opened, but upon finding it out he Immediately gave notice to the gunsmiths In the elly of the loss. Fortu? nately the gua stolen was without a hammer, and could be easily identified. On Friday morning a gun, answering to the description of the lost one, was taken to Mr. Wing, a lock? smith on Klag street, by a colored man named Thus. Wright, for the purpose of having a new hammer put upon it. Mr. Happoldt was noti? fied of the fact, and. not being able to get at the gun himself, he applied to Captain Hen? dricks and told him of the robbery and subse? quent developments. Captain Hendricks Im? mediately took the matter in hand, and upon meeting Wright near the Guardhouse yester? day morning questioned him as to the gun. After some time Wright said the gun was at his house In St. Michael's alley, and, upon search being made, il was found and identified as the ose stolen from Mr. Happoldt. Wright said he had borrowed the gun Irom "July" to go shooting rice birds. July is the colored man of diminutive stature who is connected lu some mysterious manner with the Police and Detective offices. He is about three feet high, having the body and head of a full-grown man, with a pair ot legs resembling, in length and snaps, the horns of a bull. His original name was Sam Mitchell, but he assumed that of July as a norn deplume upon entering upon his indescribable duties at the Detective office. July, in lils official capa? city, slates that he borrowed the gun irom one Toby Brown, a notorious thief, whose name was enough to convince the officials that they had arrived at the source of the robbery. Brown was immediately arrested, and on being questioned swore that he never lent the gun to July, but that July had brought it to him on Thursday night. July and Brown have both been committed for examination, and will be brought before Trial Justice Levy to-day. No ONE HURT.-A small crowd gathered last evening, about 9 o'clock, at the corner of ? Market and Meeting streets, to witness a quarrel and threatened fight between aman and woman. Each party alleged that the other had '!rr.vn a pistol, but as it was too dark to settle the question, they withdrew, alter a lively skirmish with the tongue. No POSTPONEMENT.-The time for the distri bulion of prizes in the Aiken Premium Land Sale is now positively fixed for the 30th day of November next. The drawing will come off | in Augusta. There are still a few of the tickets unsold; and those who wish to try their for? tune at obtaining a large and fine farm for an insignificant five dollar greenback, will be ac? commodated on applying to Mr. J. Russell Baker, the agent for this city. Hotel Arrivals-September 14 CHARLESTON HOTEL. M. C. Brewer. Graham's Cross Roads; A. Barnwell, South Carolina; J. Odell, Beaufort, S. C. BUSINESS NOTICES.
