Mr. Cavanangh's condition ls still critical. CLUBS AND STABS.-The record of yester? day morning's convictions contained only Ave simple cases of "drunk and disorderly,'' the dis? position or which was as follows: Daphne Alex? ander", five diys' solitary confinement; Julia Magen, Margaret Jones, Michael Fitzgibbon and James Fitzgibbon, fined one dollar each. THE CITT TAXSS.-The public are warned that only nine days more remain or the extende l time allowed by the lenity or the City Connell tor the collection or the last Instalment or the taxes for 1871, without the addition of the penalty, and still very many of the taxpayers are In default, Walk up to the captain's office, gentlemen, and settle. r A PUBLIC CONVENIENCE. -Now that the city ls rapidly filing up, hundreds are every day haming tor board, rooms, houses and servants, and hundreds, on the other hand, are eager to supply those very wants on reasonable terms. The readiest way for such parties to accom;lish their wishes ls to make them known through the columns of a paper like Tax Nxws, which circulates among every class of the community. A "want" expressed in THE NEWS seldom falls to elicit a batch of prompt and more or leis satis? factory responses. MASONIC-The Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons, or the State or South Carolina, will convene to-day at Odd Fellows' Hall, corner or King and Liberty streets, and will be opened by Right Worshipful R. s. Bruns, Deputy Grand Master. This convocations however, ls hardly more than a formality, as an adjournment will be taken, without entering upon the work or the Grand Lodge, until Tuesday, the 19th of Decem? ber, when the cornerstone of the new Masonic Temple, on the corner or King and Wentworth streets, will be laid with Masonic rites. THE COUNTT COMMISSIONERS CALLED TO OB DUL-The planters along Cooper River, in the j : rice region, are loud in their complaints against the county commissioners, who have signally failed to show their hands on any or the roads in i that section. Reed's causeway, near Strawberry ? Ferry, ls in a deplorable condition; the bridge at t Scott's Corner ls gone; Mayrant's bridge ls almost j impassable, and, m fact, the whole river road and its tribu tarlta want working. It ls now two j i yean since they have received attention, and all persons condemned to travel on them give the j j county com uissloners a well deserved anathema. | j VALUABLE CARGOES.-The superior new fXCfhtlngship Olive s. Southard, captain Theo I * bald, or 1188 tons, was cleared at the Custom ' house veuterday lot Liverpool with one of the ? largest and most valuable cargoes or the season, }Y viz: 8982 bales upland cotton and 32 bags sea j island cotton. Total weight 1,799,024 pounds. ? Total value $32S,&SO. Freight and primage $20,- j 600. Messrs. Dorsec kMlchaela^stevedares, have done excellently well for their floe work on this ship, Messrs. B. S. Rhett A Son cleared for tee I ! same p.-r: the bark Exchange with 14?3 bales up' ' land cotton and 315 tons phosphate rock. TUB LING ARDS opened at th? Academy of 1 Music last evening to a very gool house, consld ' er m g the nc favorable weather, aid Inaugurated a season that gives every promise of success. The selection of plays waa admirably calculated to exhibit to Its best advantage the strength of the company, and every hit in the performance was generously received, while the matchless Protean , personation of the inimitable Lingard created a ? genui?e sensation. The company will remain * for three more nights, dnrtng which an admirable ) selection from the legitimate comic drama ls ] promised, aa weiijas farther Instalments of Lin- ! gard's original sketches and statue scenes, PRINTTNO TELEGRAPH INSTRUMENTS.-The New Tork Gold and Stock Company, or which General M. LeflertB is president, and which supplies oar factors and banks with commercial and financial news from Liverpool and New York, ls about to introduce printing telegraph In? struments into this city. Toe ne vs will be dla- 1' tributed to subscribers simultaneously, from .the 11 main office by one manipulation. Tue invention is a valuable one, and the instruments work - most effectively wherever introduced. The Gold c and Stock Company own all the patents of per- t feet printing instruments, which print In large capital letters as plainly as the ordinary printing press. These machines are now tied by cotton tact ors In A uga-ta. Ga, and have given entire satisfaction. Securing promptness and nnlTor- I ml ty in delivery, they are Invaluable in commer- I dal and financial operations. Mr. Patrick Walsh, or Augusta, ls the general agent for the introduc? tion of this CDmpaiy's Instruments. The agent fer Charleston ls Mr. J. D. Easterlln, mana? ger d^t the Western Union Telegraph Company, to whom applications caa be made. A GOOD RIDDANCE.-A party of alleged pickpockets, who are said to have been "work? ing" the recent state fairs with great success, h^'e been brought to grier by their arrest In tbls city on the complaint or - McKinlay, who charges that Mary A. Riley engaged him in con v; nation on the Btreet, and tba: while his atten tion was thus diverted her conrederates, "Dr." George DeVernon and John Wilson, quietly ab? stracted his watch and pocketbtok. A descrip? tion or the alleged pickpockets being furnished to the detectives, they were arrested and confined in the Guardhouse uuttl yesterday morning, when, the complilnant failing to appear against them, they were suffered :o depa-t upon their promise to leave the State. One very damaging point against them was that upon being arrested they made an o*r to Lieutenant Heidt or three hundred dollars to allow them to escape. DEPARTURE OF THE FIREMEN.-The mem ben or th? varions steam dre engine and hook and ladder companies were ordered to report at the Charlest?n Hotel at half pas: 5 yesterday morning to escort the Delaware firemen to the depot npon their ratura to tbe North. A good number of the Charleston firemen turned ont ac? cordingly, and a procession was formed which, headed by McClarg'a Band, started np Meeting street toward the Northeastern Railroad depot. Here a - arewell address was delivered by Vice President Thaddeus Street, or the Vigilant Com? pany, which was responded to in a rew appro? priate words by Marshal Qilnn. Brier remarks were also made by Chler Bngineer Nathan, Mr. Hazell of the Delaware company, and Professor Ben McClurg. The visit?n then embarked on the train, which moved out of the d ?pot amid the ?Mteag or the firemen and the stirring strains otTOxle by the band.
