Fc:k'b Home, whence she had strayed a few days stacee, and her shivering, thinly clad form, and the pinched expression ot ber vacant face, exciied the pity of all who saw her. She was sent back by the Mayor to the Old Folk's Home to be taken care of.

Operation? of the Howard Association of Charlrston-The Number of Cases Treated-Total Number of Deaths by v? How FVver. A Anal meeting ol the executive committee of the Howard Association was held on Satur? day last, in Market Hall, lor the purpose of | receiving reports of the operations of the association during the late epidemic. The following report -ol President Taylor was read : PRESIDENT'? REPORT. The philanthropic labors ol the Howard As? sociation commeu"ed the 29th day of August and terminated the 15th day of November. During this time, the attention of most o? the members of the board bas been unremitting to the wants of the sick. The office in Market Hall has been open each day at seven o'clock A. M. and closed at ten o'clock P. M..wbi:e the clerk and managers have been in constant attendance there to meet promptly every application that came in proper form. The organization has worked well, but experience opens modes of improvement, wbieh can be adopted if we are so unfortunate as to be visited again with an epidemic. Contributions have been adequate to our wants, as bas been our experience always, and we believe our work has been of value to those among whom we labored. I refer the board to the accompanying reports of the secretary and the treasurer of the Howard Association for full details of operations. Respectfully submitted, JAS. H. TATLOB, President. The following is a synopsis of the highly in? teresting report submitted by Or. Geo. S. Pel zer, the secretary of the association: The association beean its operations on the i 29th day August, and closed on the 15th day of November, during which time 466 Indigent persons were visited and relieved by the di? rectors of the association. Of ihese 466 cases there were 37 colored and 429 white; 192 were natives of the city. 100 of South Carolina, 35 ol other parts of the United Stales, 61 of Ger? many, 59 of Ireland, 9 of England, 5 of I Scotland, e.r.d 5 of other nationalities. There were 287 cases yellow fever, 107 of j brokebone and 72 of other disease's; 398 ol the cases recovered and 68 died, viz: 66 whites and 2 colored. - Eight ot the deaths were from "oiher diseases," leaving 60 deaths from yel? low fever, during the whole epidemic, among the patients of the association. Ihe propor? tion in each ward was as follows: WARD 1. Ninety-four oases, 82 white and 12 colored 80 of yellow fever, 8 of brokebone and 6 ol other diseases; ll deaths, all white. WARD 2. Nineteen cases, 13 white and 6 colored-14 ol yellow fever; 3 deaths. 1 white and 2 col? ored. WARD 3. Eighty-eight cases, 83 white and 5 colored 57 of yellow fever, 17 of brokebone and 14 of | other diseases; 9 deaths, all white. WARD 4. Eighty-one cases, 71 white and 10 colored-52 of vellow fever, 16 of brokebone and 13 of j other diseases; 23 deaths, all white. WARD 5. Thirty-four cases, 33 white and 1 colored 23 ot yellow fever. 10 of brokebone and 1 of other diseases; 5 deaths, all white. WARD 6. Twenty-eight cases. 27 white and 1 colored -17 of yellow fever, 7 of brokebone and 4 of | other diseases; 3 deaths, all white. WARD 7. Fifty-nine cases, 57 white and 2 colored-19 of yellow fever, 21 of brokebone and 19 of j other diseases; 3 deaths, all white. WARD 8. Sixty-three cases, all white-24 yellow fever, 25 brokebone and 14 other diseases; ll deaths. There were 64 nurses employed by the asso? ciation-51 colored and 13 white, and, in ad? dition to these, there were nurses employed from the families of the sick. The above shows the extent of the fever among those of the poorer classes, who could not afford to employ physicians and nurses at their own expense. It does not In? dicate, of course, the entire extent of the fever, especially as the disease, daring the la'e epidemic, principally attacked those In better circumstances. Dr. Pelzer's report ls a plain exhibit of the charity and philanthropy of our citizens, and we trust that ia such a cause the president may always report ina1 the contributions have been adequate to the wants of the a ssociation. The Total mortality. The following table shows the total number of deaths from yellow lever In the present year as compared with the moriarty lathe epidemics of 1854, 1856 and 1658. There were six deaths more ia 1871 than ia 1856, the mildest of three former epidemics, but the table shows that the increased mortality in the present year was altogether in the latter part of the seasou. From October 14 to No? vember 18. 1856, there were only thirty-one deaths, while for the same pened ia 1871 there were seventy-six deaths. Indeed, the fever showed Its greatest strength Just at the time wheo, according to precedent, lt should have been on its last legs. IBM. 1856. 1856. 1871.

C. Pinck oey, of the Revolution, which spread itself over several acres in extent. Just north, of the ferry slip, and east of East Bay street. Last spring it was cut up into lots and sold. and. on the river front, one of the most capacious piers in Charleston has been built by Mr. Robert Hunter, a noted worker in palmetto and yellow piue logs aud ziuc People have been wondering at a wharf rising out over three hundred and twenty-five feet of mud. barely covered at high water, but, io due course, a peculiar-looking apparatus came to anchor in close proximity, and, while the curi? ous were calculation how many years it would take to float a schooner in those prospective docks, Messrs. Wilcox, Gibbs & Co. surprise that part of the towu by docking the huge ship George Green, from the far distant Paci? fic Ocean, with one thousand three hundred tons of guaoo for their adjacent fertilizer works. Mr?. Grundy went down to see, and thought a tidal wave had stranded a leviathan close upon the Fish Market, but the venerable and inquisitive old lady was assured by a iriendly salt thu the ship was afloat, - you know," and she went away with a "How things do change," and seemed reconciled to the innovation. THE PACIFIC GUANO COMPANT.-This com? pany, whose huge works area striking sight to travellers on the South Carolina Railroad, have adopted the wise policy of reducing the price of their fertilizers to the lowest notch. They maintain the high standard of their fer? tilizers, as certified to by Dr. St. Julian Rav enel and Professor Shepard, and they bring down the price to $45 a ton. Further parti? culars are giv?n in the advertisements of the company, and supplies and detailed in: or ma? non will" be lurnlshed by Mr. J. M. Robson, the Charleston agent, who is, we may add, one of the most trustworthy acd wide-awake busi? ness men ia the South. THE SPECIAL ELECTION IX THE CITT. Qu Itt Times-Thc Number of Votes Catt. The election held yesterday throughout the county to fi'.] the vacant seat in the General Assembly, caused by the resignation of Repre? sentative Hardy, was one ol the quietest on record, and in the city remarkably devoid of] all excitement, C. C. Bowen, the Radical nominee, had the entire field to himself, and few persons went to the polls besides his par? ticular supporters. The political nag had gone through so many 6crub races, that it created no excitement to see him run around the ring and.take down the prize without a com? petitor. Parson Cain had " withdrawn from the arena, and there were no other entries. In the lower part ofl the city tlie managers of the various polls sat quiet'y behind the bar?, and were only disturbed by the ca?uil approach ol some con? firmed Bowenite or Republican who voted just for the sake of exercising that glorious pre? rogative, and convincing himself that it was still tis right. At some of the upper precincts pilgrims from ihe country surrounded the polls and seemed supremely disgusted at the total lack of competitors. They had travelled far to vote in the city, and arriving here could not find a runner to give as much as a pair of | shoe?, a drink, nay even a chew of tobacco for the vote of a freeman. Things had come to a pretty pass indeed, and the disappointed plumpers consoled themselves by the oft-re? peated legends of the enormous price for votes in the Lesesne and Pillsbury, and later. In the Carpenter and Scott contest. Ihe fellowing is a statement of the votes cast in the city as compared with the late Mu? nicipal election in August last PRESENT ELECTION. MUNICIPAL ELEC? TION.

On James Island C white and 406 colored. At the Eight Mlle Pump 1 white and 81 colored. The result in this city shows that there were not quite one-sixth as many votes cast at this as at the late municipal election, and from the show of tickets lt may safely be in? ferred that C. C. Bowen has been elected by a handsome majority. In the evening the ballot boxes, in due form, were brought down to the Courthouse and lodged in one of the jury rooms to await the count this morning. A guard was not lound wanting who would alt np with the boxes, and several staunch Bowenltes, who "didn't trust those Mackeys," beguiled the long hours of | the autumn night by recounting the trials and virtues of their champion, watching the while the boxes laden with ballots which were to give the first stepping-stone to the disappoint? ed Congressman, as he again essays the slip? pery rounds of the political ladder. CLUBS AND STABS.-James Jones and George Lewis, lodged for fighting In the Lower Mar? ket, were sentenced each to pay a fine of one dollar or go to the House of Correction for five days. Jefferson Williams and Mary A. Williams, arrested for fighting in Rutledge street, were fined each one dollar. Joseph Slator, for gambling ia a house in El-1 liott street, was made to chose between paying a fine of one dollar and spending five days in the House of Correction. Of four parties, representing the various stages of intoxication, three were fined two dollars each, and the last one got off with a fine of one dollar. AU paid tip and seemed glad to get away. A diminutive specimen of the pig tribe, found astray in Rutledge avenue, was tried and confiscated. ACADEMY OF MUSIC-The Templeton Troupe, last night, had a flattering reception upon their first reappearance In Ch-.rles ton. The Academy was well filled in every parr, and the o'd favorites were cheered with an apprecia? tive audience. The pi?ce de resistance. George Coleman's well known comedy, "The Heir-at. Law," went off admirably. Mr. Templeton's "Dr. Peter Pangloss" afforded amrle opportu? nity for good and "strong" (low comedy) act? ing; and "the Doctor" never tailed to bring down the house. Miss Alice Vane, as "Cicely Homespun," and Miss Isabel Vane, as "Caro? line Dormer," did great credit to themselves showing a considerable Improvement in their acting since last they appeared on our boards, if they will permit us to fay BO. Mr. Wildman and Mr. Hubbard also sustained their charac? ters very well. "May-tbe-Fay," the infant phenomenon, eang and acted in splendid s'yle, earning pro? longed and enthusiastic applause. We would suggest, however, that even the most extra? ordinary child of six years is but a child. and ought not to be encored a second and a third time. Admiring audiences are not unfre quently a little inconsiderate in their exac? tions. The Leon Brothers contributed materially to the entertainment of the evening. Their acrobatic ieats have never been excelled. We should forgive them, however, if they would doff their Japanese toggery, and lace the audi? ence in Christian habiliments. Miss Jenny Worrell and Harry Jackson con? cluded the performance with a "Protean Ex? travaganza." in which they enchanted the au? dience with their versatility-Mr. Jackson presenting a variety of amusing characters, and Miss Worrell eliciting most uproarious plaudits with her clog dance. To-night the public is to be regaled with "East Lynne," and a repetition of the funny doings of the comic attaches of the troupe the programme of course to be changed, a? ls usual on such occasion?.
