THE STEAM LINKS- A CROWD OF WORK.
Thanksgiving Day being sailing day for both the
steamships Georgia, for New York, and Virginia
for Philadelphia, there was a great rush all yes?
terday afternoon to get dow j th3 large ?moan t
of freight offering, particularly to the mammoth
"Iron Lise" steamship at Union wharve-. Cotton
presses were shrieking as If in agony; drays and
trucks Jostling each other on the docks, and
everything quite stirring; bot the impression
seenkrt to be that to-lay would net be an all-day
holiday, as the Georgia and virgin a both sall at
2 o'clock.
CHIMNEY SWEEPINQ.-We are informed that
the chimney con tractors "who we e not re elected
by the City council are showing their spite by
persuading the sweeps not to work for any "Di rn -
ocrat contractor," as they call the incumbents.
The sweeps, who know more about flues than
poll les, are holding back, and refuse to work ex?
cept under their old mutera. They have not re?
flected, we suppose, that tnelr places can soon be
Ailed, and that the present contractors will not be
removed because the sweeps object to them.
After a little while the yo-hoa will cometo their
?ises, and the ex-co titra -.tors will, tr necessary,
indicted under the Ku K ux act tor preventing
the sweeps from following their calUng. In the
meanwhile Mr. Cerdea, the contractor for Ward
3. gives once that sweeps are wanted immedi?
ately.
A CHARLESTJNIAN IN CALIFORNIA.-Mr. Thos.
P. Stoney, of Charleston, at the breaking out of
the tate war, was living In Napa County, Califor?
nia. He immediately returned to South Carolina
and took service in the Washington Artillery,
commanded by Captain Geo. H. Walter. After
the war he went back to Napa and resumed the
practice of his profession. He soon took an en?
viable position at the bar, and at the late election
was nominated f <r county Judge. Mr. Stoney
li a fervent Democrat,, and in Napa County the
Repub'icans are largely in the majority, but such
was the respect of the public for the ability and
parity of the young Charlestonlan that he was
elected over his opponent-a strong maa and
gocQT lawyer-by oae hundred and thirty-four
majority. We may rest assured that the voters
of Napa will never have reisoa to regret their
choice.
.?SB COMING ELECTION.-The vacant seat in
the Charleston representation to the Legislature
win not have many contestants. It was cut and
dried beforehand that c. c. Bowen was to be the
coming man, though some fears were had that
B, H. Cain would make a run. At a meeting of
the prominent colored men, held a fe tv nights
since, their unanimous support was pledged to
Bowen, and that worthy will soon be with his ex
c dleague Wulttemore. The ballot-boxes were re?
moved from the vault of the Baak or Charleston
yesterday, and will be distributed to the different
palling precincts to-day. lt will be noticed that
a new precinct has been created on Edlsto Island,
and A. C. Richmond takes the place of Richard
Bryan at Strawberry Ferry. The Republican
officials are earnest workers for Bowen, and hts
election may be considered sure.
A HANDSOME SPIRE.-The latest work ol Mr.
Werner will adorn the top of the steeple of the
new German Church, and as many persons have
rot telescopic advantages with which to discern
tn beauties of the workmanship at so lofty an
altitude, the artificer bas determined to erect the
cap or the spire In his yard on Meeting street be?
fore placing it upon the steeple. Preparations
for putting it together may now be seen, and the
spectator may form some notion of its appearance
whea completed. The Inn work will be fully
talrty feet high, and wUl be photographed as it
stands in the yard. When received rrcm Mr.
Werner's yard, the cap can te placed upon the
spiiTin a few days, and the steeple win be com?
plete. The work upou the body o' the building
progresses steadily, and the church will probably
oe ready for use this winter.
CRUMBS.-An Englishman, who was intoxi?
cated, was mn over by a passenger train six
miles below Marlon and lnstan'ly killed. A col?
ored man was killed at Maa' Bluff m a railroad
accident.
There were several killing frosts in Marion last
week.
The real est?t} market in Columbia ls active,
with an upward tendency. Several of the Hur?
ley vi le houses have been rented.
Every wanderer who has returned ls tn ssch
a healthy condition I hat the "stay-at-homes"' need
not fear that the fat of our land will be spied out
as long as the rib? of the quondam absentees are
so weil defended.
The holes dug by the operat ves of the Western
Union Telegraph Company for t>eir new poles
were a subject or great curlo-lty yesterday, and
i: was tot iced that or one hundred men wt o pass?
ed ninety-nine turned aside and looked into the
cavity.
Mr. W. 0. Brice is the local agent for the Wheel?
er A Wll-ton Sewing Machine C mpany in this
city, and Mr. J. M Touhey, referred to yesterday,
is the canvassing agent or the same company, and
^?an be seen at No. 209 King stree:.
The Zeitung of this morning puoii hes a strong
appeal for more pay or less work for4he driven
and conductors on the City Rtilway.
Thc weather last evening was quite bracing,
and overcoats will probably be popular this morn?
ing.
A NEW FIRM.-Messrs. P. A. Chase and Da?
vid S. Cuttino have associated themselves as part?
ners in trade, and opened a first-class estabLsh
ment tu the boot and shoe trade at No. 245 King
street. The partners are well known In our c ty
In their former connection with long estab.tshed
business houses.
THE LINGARD* AT THE ACADEMT.-The per?
formance last evening opene l with tne come net?
ta "Tne Day After the Wedding." which was well
rendered, and, together with the rehearsal act
which followed, gave ri e to frequent appliuse.
The Impersonations of Mr. Lfogird were admira?
ble, and the facility with which the transforma?
tions were etr-cted excited not a little surprise
among the audience. The closing piece, -The
Little Todllekms." by Charles Mtthews, was
given with spirit, aa l dismissed the fair house
after a hearty laugh. Tne gal'eri-s were thor?
oughly amenable to the preservers of good order,
and no uolsy c.Taston distuned the peace and
nerves of the appreciative audience.
The attractive comedy "Still W?ter Runs
Deep" is fixed tor to night, with Miss Dunning as
Mrs. Mildmay, and M*. Lingard as Mr. Potter.

The prospects of the amusement season grow
brighter every day. In addition to the hinted
advent or the Brignoli-McOulloch troupe, of Moul?
ton, and or Nilsson, we have now two more posi?
tive engagements.
Templeton's Dramatic Company, who have
been playing i-uecessfully throughout the South,
will open at the Academy or Music on Monday

Academy moving until near the time Axed for
the arrival of the Formes-Habelraann Opera
Company, who will make their Qrst appearance
at the Academy on December ll.
The Formes-Uabelmann Troupe consists of
Taco. Habel mann and Carl Beanmard, tenors;
Carl Formes and Uerr Berringer, basses, and
Mdes. Anna Rosen! and R?mer, prime donne,
with a select chorus and orchestra under the di?
rection of M. A. Predigan. Mr. Habelmann is
known ali the couutry over, and the veteran Carl
Formes has a World-Wide reputation. Madame
Rosetti is the prima donna or the company at
the head of which was Wachtel, the famous Ger?
man tenor. It ls probable that the company will
open witt Gouno.l's Faust, with. Anna Rosetti as
"Marguerite," Carl Formes as "Mephisto," Wil?
helm Formes as ' Valentine." and Habelmann as
'Faust."

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT.
1
At a regular meeting of Union Kilwinning ! l
Lodge, No. 4, A F. M., the following pieambleand | i
resolutions were u .anlmously adopted and order
id to be published lu the daily papers or the city:
Ia Memoriam-Rev. A. W. Leland.
"Then Abraham gave up the ghost and died in a .
rood old age, an old mau and full of years, and 1
ie was garnered to his people."
But a few days ago, and we sadly learned that I j
m the 2d icstaut, In the elgh ty-fourth year or his | <
larthly pilgrim.ige, a':er a long and valuable lire, . (
he Kev. A. W. Leland had been called home.
Uhcrs will Ally and deservedly tell of the exalted
Jhrlitian virtues which were at the samo time his
:hlef profession and his chief glory and honor.
Bur. lt ls for us to point to him with pride and
satisfaction as one who, a member or the Lodge
for nearly sixty years, recognized the go.d which
s effected by our Order tn the proper sphere, and
Hesitated not to connect himself therewith, while
during the lengthened term of years allowed him
here, he so carried out the tenets and lived up to
the principles of our profession, that men looked
op to him ami saw how a Mason should live, and
what a Mason should practice.
Though for years absent from us, and living la
mother city, yet has he not been forgotten, nor has
dis example been lost, but his life has been one
constant.lesson, teaching us our duty; and now
that he has gone up higher to dwell in lhat other
City, the Holy one ' not made with hands," where
he is at rest, this memory of a life-long userul
uess ls len us as a bright and shining legacy, to
be treasured and garnished up. Truly "the memo
ry or the justis blessed."
On the 24th day of December, 1S12, Union Kil?
winning Lodge was revived with but seven mem?
bers, (all or whom have been long dead) after a
suspension or fifteen years. During the next
year A. D. 1813, eleven members were added to
the Lod?e, including the Rev. A. W. Leland, then
pastor of the James Island Church; of this num?
ber, ali but him have long since died, while many
others, who, In the succeeding years have united
with us, have also gone bet?re, leaving not only
tue oldest member or Union Kilwlning Lodge.but,
as well at we can learn, the oldest Mason in South
Carolina. And now we meet and wc mourn thc
loss of this Patriarch from our midst, and grieve
the sundering of ties which have bnt strengthen?
ed and growa Arm with the lapse of years.
Eulogy is needless. The simple mention of his
name jails up almost involuntari'y to the mind
the long, long life of unwearied toll and industry
dedicated to the service of Him whom he served
and perservered in even after the almond tree had
flourished and the grasshopper had become a
burden. Now the silver cord is locsed, the poor
tired dust has returned to the earth as lt was,
while the glorified spirit, crowned with the coro?
net of victorious rejoicing, has returned to the
God who gave lt. We cai see him no more here
below, but his ure is left us as a pattern to be
followed, and In his death we learn "How blest
the righteous when he dies." Be lt, therefore,
unanimously
Resolved. That, as members of this I odge, we
moui n to-night, In the de uh of the Rev. A. W.
Leland, the loss of a most revered and venerated
brother, and the severance of one of the few re?
maining links which bound us to the "Auld Lang
Syne."
Resolved, That, as Masons, we grieve the de?
parture of perhaps the oldest Mason In this juris?
diction-of a father in Israel who, by his consis?
tent c mducr, has shown how the Christian man
can live a true and honored Mason.
Hf solved. That ne tender to his bereaved family
our sympathies io this their arUiction, and beg
leave to mingle with theirs our grief for his loss.
Resolved, That, as a token of our respect, a
blank page In our Minute Book be dedicated to
bis memory, and a copy of this preamble and
res ilutloni oe sent by ihe secretary to the family
of the deceased, and be pub lihed In the Colum?
bia Pheonix and the papers of this city.
Adam K. Gibson.
And yet again another of our members has been
raised from the scene of bis earth'y Ubors to the
enjoyments of that Temple "aot made with hands,
eternal In the beavens." A pare, virtuous and
well-spent life had, we humbly trust, prepared
onr departed iro her, Adam E. Gibson, to appear
before fae Grand Architect of the Universe with
the hope or receiving the wages or a faithful
workman. The corner-stone of his Masonic and
spiritual temple was well rounded, being laid upon
that rock whi -h ls Immutable. His was a quiet
and unostentatious career. Unambitious and re
tiri,ig, he sought no public position; but In the
private walks or life h Ls kindly temper, sympathlz
lng disposition, integrity of c'aracter, and pu?
rity of deportment bcd created around him a
large circle of friends and gained the respect or
the community. Raised In Union Kilwinning
Lodge on the 19th September, l 67, his earnest na?
ture became feeply Impressed with tr.e solemn
trnt'ia tobe derived from Masonic teaching, and
until the close ot his 1 re he rarely railed In his at?
tendance at the stated commuolcations. Filling
the responsible position of secretary, his well-kept
books attested i he conscientious discharge or his
duties. Desirous or testifying their rr gard for
their deceased brother and respect fur his mem?
ory,
Resolved, That In the death of Brother Adam E.
rjlbsoo, Union Kilwinning Lodge, No. 4 A. F. M.,
las lost a va ned m in ber and an eillcieut officer.
Resolved, 1 hat In testimony ol respect the desk
of the secretary be draped In mourning tor taree
months.
Resolved, That a page upon the Minute Book be
inscribed with his name and the offley which he
aeld at the time of his death.
Resolved, Tnat the respectr 1 condolences or
the lodge be expressed to the widow and family
)f our deceased brother upon this, their heavy be?
reavement.
Dr. William C. Holbeck.
Inasmnch that lt has pleased rle supreme Ar
