Spires, secretary. ?_ FROZE TO DEATH.-Yesterday morning a white man named MiUbonw was d:scovered frozen to death near the Vii?a?re of BamWg, on the Augusta Road. He was last seen in? toxicated the night before, and strayed off to? wards the woods, on the edge of which he was found deao next m o ming. INQUEST.-Coroner Tait held an inquest yes? terday morning over the body of Ann Math ewes (colored,) who was severely burned on Friday la-t, In the rear of Dr. Blackman's store, on Broad street, and subsequently died of her Injuries. The verdict of the jury waa that the deceased came to her death from Ia jarles received by an accident il burning. THB ACADEMY.-The second ccocert of Mme. McCuliocb-Brlgnoll last evening waa not very folly attended, the severe weather doubtless having had the effect o? keeplog many at home. Mme. Brignoll, herself; was somewhat indisposed. Still the programme was consci? entiously performed and several of the pieces were accorded an encore. TBS WEATHER.-The cold spell which began a lew days back continues with unaba?og severity, and yesterday morning the thermom? eter reached thc minimum point of twenty-five degrees above zero, which ls some four or Ave degrees lower than lt had been this year. Ice was abundant yesterday tn almost every street, and retained its gla?sy solidity all day, in the shade, without any Indien lon s of thawing. The wind ls still (rom the northwest, and the latest indications promise a continuance of | ^severe cold thia morning. THB TJP-TOWN GROCERY.-Mr. D. Fitzgibbon has transformed tbe uncouth building which lately disfigured the northwest corner of King and Cannon streets, Into a first-claT srfxn*"Ji where he ls now prepared to offer to the local and general trade inducements that cap hard? ly fall to give satisfaction. The goods are warranted the best, and will be sold at the lowest prices. Mr. Fitzgibbon bas done the neighborhood a benefit In his improvement, said we have no doubt the neighborhood will reciprocate the good turn. Is "THE BEND."-The brisk cold of yester? day morning had a beneficial effect upon busi? ness m the handsome retail establishments of | Sing street. The decided weather seemed to inspire the flair shoppers with renewed ener? gy and impress upon them the importance of j malting their winter parchase?. Bright eyes, purple noses and flushed cheeks were tbe or? der of the day, and the busy throng never ceased during the midday boura to circulate through the street. A crowded King street ls a ture sign of prosperity. When the ladles become busy it may be safely inferred that the lords of creation on Hay ne street and the Bay are able to furnish the sinews of war. RSAL ESTATE SALES.-The following city real estate waa sold yesterday morning, at public auction, by Messrs. Leitch A Bruns : Vacant lot on the west aide o? Kassau street, between Line and Columbas streets, for $240; one-half cash, and the balance in one and two years. Lot No. 29, on the south side of George street, between King and St Phillp, twenty five feet front by one hundred and twenty-five feet deep, for $880, cash. Lot with two-story wooden residence, on the northwest corner ot Wilson and Mag? azine streets, thirty nine and a half feet front by one hundred and thirty-three feet deep, for ^$1205; one-haif cash, and the ba'ance in one ^nd two years. PISTOLS AND THE POLICE.-On Monday after? noon, a considerable stir was raised on More? land's wharf, on Sorith Bay, by a quarrel be? tween Stephen Marshall and Tony Roach, both colored. The wharf aa usual was crowd? ed with visitors ?rom the country and their produce, and over a bargain relating to the liker the quarrel arose. As Tony made his pugilistic demonstrations, Marshall drew a re? volver, and presenting lt at his antagonist, threatened to shoot. No discharge followed, but the action created a hubbub seldom made on the wharf. The police came quickly on the scene, and arrested the combatants. Stephen was locked up. and his case came before the Mayor yesterday morning. The pistol was produced, and proved to be so covered with rust as to be perfectly harmless. After hear? ing the rest of the evidence, the prisoner was discharged. OBSEQUIES OP BISHOP DAVIS.-The funeral of the Bight Rev. Thomas F. Davis, which took place at two o'clock on Monday afternoon, in Camden, was attended by most of the Episco? pal Clergy from this city. The services were conducted by the Right Rev.'W. B. W. Howe, assisted by the Rev. John Johnson-the Revs. Dr. A. W. Marshall, W. O. Prentiss, james H. Eiiiotr, B. B. Babbit, Winiam H. Hanokel and' John Johnson, and Messrs. L. H. Deas, M. D., and J. B. Kershaw, wardens of Gr ice Church, acting aa pall bear? ers. Part ot the services were performed in the church and part at the grave in the ceme? tery. The body was interred two miles from tbe town by the side of the late bishop's eldest son, who was also a minister. The remains were followed to their resting place by a large concourse, and the bells ol the Presbyterian and Methodist Churches of the town were to?ed in honor of the honored dead. i THE OAKLEY MURDER. Tne trial of Samuel White, Raa Balden. Buddy Raveael and George Parker, charged with the murder of W. B. Fidea, ia October Inst, at Oakley Station, on the Northeastern ' Railroad, was opened yesterday morning. Tbe greater portion of the day was occupied in forming a jury, and this important step was atteadeJwllh considerable difficulty. What with peremptory challenges and challenges for cause by the prisoners and the State, the original panel of thirty jurors was exhausted, and only six jurors had been chosen and ac- j cepted. The statute requires that at least seven jurors shall be chosen from the original panel, and this obstacle threatened to put I an end to the case for the present. His Honor had already ordered a mistrial, when the soli? citor for the State and C. W. Buttz and H. W. Sohroder, Esq?., attorneys for the defence, agreed to reconsider a peremptory challenge and chose the so vent h juror from the old paael. The jurors oa the special venire ofone hundred, ordered to be summoned for this case, were then called, and after twenty chal? lenges tie jury was formed. M fellows: A. E. f h'lippy, foreman; James Thomas, J. M. Reed, John Taylor, Mose_3 Bucklojr.ham. Moses D. "Brawn* Wm. Spencer, George.Watkins, Wm. Murrell, Edward Snlley, H. L. Beni ford, and Edward Weathers. The grounds ol objection against the jurors were various, and they were each-questioned by the opposing attorneys as they came up to ba sworn. Some admitted that they had ob- j -jections to inflicting capital punishment, and this, in the present case, was considered a goo3 objection. Generally they were ordered to 6tand aside for having read the sworn de? positions before the trial justices ia the papers and f ormed an op'nion therefro n as to the guilt or Innocence of the prisoners. The fol-" lowing witnesses were examined: D. Rh ame. Pr. Porcher, Jas. E. Wright^ H. B. Picken? pack and J. A. Mushlngton. They proved merely the death of Mr. Fidea, the nature of the wounis which caused his death, and the discovery of blood upon certain garments which were worn by Anthony Thompson on the night of the murder. These matters occn pied the court up to the hour of adjournment, three o'clock P. M. Toe trial will be resumed at ten o'clock this morning. THE SIKQKB SEWING MACHTE COMPANY. ! This energetic company? have opened agency in thlstclty, at No. 197 King street, and a stylish turnout, consisting of a light wagon, handsomely painted aod lettered, forms one of the most noticeable adjuncts of | the establishment. The Singer machine has won new laurels in the shape ot medals at the Georgia fairs, and any one doubting its merits should proceed to interview Mr. J. Bedell, agent, at No. 197 King street. DR. N. A. PRATT.-Among the late arrivals In our city we are pleased to notice the presence in our midst of our esteemed lei: ow citizen, who has returned, after a twelve month's absence, to his borne. Dr. Pratt, it will be remembered, was the first discoverer of phosphates In our midst, and his caret ul analysis of the wealth of these discoveries, to? gether with hts scientific adaptation of them as fertilizers, has been a source of revenue to our down-trodden Slate. This gentleman has spent the last twelve months in bringing to j the ai tendon of European capitalists the value of our resource?, and already bas his labor been crowned with abundant success. We learn that he has visited, during hit absence from us, most ot the manufacturing cities of | Great Britain, and his explorations have been extended to the Continent of Europe. We henceforward trust to find Russia. Germany and Switzerland as customers of our phospha? te resource?. As a pioneer in our own Imme? diate prosperity we recognize Dr. Pratt as one of the founders of the Charleston Mining and Manufacturing Company of our city, (but | owing to our impoverished condition now transferred to Philadelphia,) .and the able chemist of the Sulphuric Acid and Manufactu? ring Company, ia operation here, under the skilful and discreet management of the Hon. C. G. Memmioger. We sincerely trust that Dr. Pratt's efforts abroad will ba attended with Success. MORTUARY REPOST FOB THE WEEK.

The grand jury having been called, all answered, and returned the following bills: The State vs. John Shines, grand larceny, no bill; the State ve. Bee]. Ancrum, assault with Intent to kill, and assault and battery, no bill; the State vs. Affy alias Daphne Jenkins, as? sault with Intent to kill, no bill; the State vs. Jesse Ch iso! m and Washington Matthews, murder-true bill against Jesse Chisolm and no bill against Matthews; the State vs. Canley and Paul Swinton, burglary and larceny, true bill; the State vs. Julia Green, grand larceny, true bill. The grand jury then made the fol? lowing presentment: The grand Ju.y for the November term, 1871, would respectfully return the following as- their presentment : That they have, in accordance with the Instructions of the court, visited and ex? amined the several public offices, and would state, as the resin or their Investigations, that they visited the office of the clerk of the court and found the same kept In a neat a d creditable manner. They also visited the Jail, and found the building in good onditlou, excepting the leaks from the water pip- sr and would again bring the matter to the attention of th e county commissloaers. The prisoners aro unprovided with blankets, and we were Informed (hat the sheriff was unable to get a supply owing to the 1 want of ineans,.aod ;hat he had been unable to get any money from the connty commissioners for the ti le tr ? ol prisoners for the current year. They also visited the Colored Orpbanhouse in George street, and found lt unsuited for the pur? pose, and we would urse a special appropriation by the Legislature or $30.00 to pur hase a farm, and to ere ct BU-table buildings thereon, so as to make the Institution atmest self-supporting. The ohlloren are in want nf shoes, ic. The cooking arrangements are defective, and an entire new outfit ls neceas irv. The water closets are In a deplorable condition, and need Immediate atten? tion. The s hool funds ard Insufficient for the couuty, as on y one-tenth of the voters pay their poll tax. Ont or sixteen tho usa:, a to elgbt.cn thousand voters In this county, only eighteen hundred dollars was collected, ai shown by the treasurer's books. We h J VJ given our attention I to the financial condition of this count v. and can Ond no vsine improvement since our last ie port. The debt ot this county ls as follows : Old county check, Issued prior to July, 1871.$60,000 Vouchers in county commissioners, not audited. 65,000 Various claims aagainst county. 33,000 The latter claim ls approximate only, but is cer? tainly over $15,000. Owing to the above amount of indebtedness, claims on the county sell from twenty to fifty per cent discount, and patties fur? nishing supplies mus. cnarge pro rata to cover themselves. We would suggest that all claims should be passed monthly, by the county commissioners, and audited by the county audi? tor, who should keep a record or the same. The checks should be Issued by the county commis? sioners according to the date of purchase or ser? vices rendered, and that the treasurer should be Tarnished with the monthly 1 st or checks Issued, and to pay the same according to date, p u bu - hing in the dally papers the numbera ami amount total that he can pay from fonds In his possession. Unless some change ls soon made, lt will be al mon impossible to get toe necessary supplies for the county, as the treasurer will not have over $100.000 or this year's taxe* to meet al! Uabllirles. We also visited the office of mesne conveyance, and we found several ul their books ia a dilapi? dated condition: valuable record books and plats all torn and without blading. We would recom? mend an appropriation of three thousand dollars for absolute repairs, la ot der to save valuable documents from total los?. The grand Jury would present to the court, from evidence hereto ap? pended. Moulton Emery and Morton N. waring, M. D.. ex-school commissioners for this county, for indictment for fraud and malfeasance in office. JAKES 0. LACOSTE, Foreman. The grand jory were then discharged by -his Honor, with thanks for the promptness and energy with which they bad disposed of the business before them.

At the regular monthly meeting of the Pal? metto Steam Fire Engine Company, held at their hall on Monday evening, 4th mst, the following preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas, The Angel or Death has again entered our ranks and removed from our midst our late | brother fireman, Michael B. Regan. Suffering for j many mon : .:s with a disease wbloh he bore with Christian fortitude, he was at last carried away by a merciful Saviour to a brighter and happier land to enjoy the kingdom or his Heavenly Father. Always ready at the call of danger, by his actions he merited the esteem and good will of his fellow associates. By his death this company has lost a faithful fireman and devoted member, and the community a good and upright citizen. Since he ls gone and we will see him no more, we humbly submit to the decree of that Supreme Being who does all things wisely. In the death of our late brother we do deplore his loss, and we tender to the family of the deceased our heartfelt sympa? thy In this the sad hour of the r bereavement. May his EOOI rest in peace. Resolved, That a blank page in our minute book be dedicated to his memory. Resolved, That this company wear the usual badge of mourning on tbelr next parade. Resolved, That a copy or these resolutions be seat to the family of the deceased and the same be published m one of the dally papers of this city. Extract from the minutes. E. A. Roys, Secretary P.

IN THE The v?g?tative powera of life are strong, bat la a few years how often the pallid hoe, the i %ck- las? tre eye, and emaciated form, show their baneful influence, lt soon becomes evident to the observ? er that some depressing lnflieace ls checking the development of the body. Consumption U talced of, and perhaps the y oath is removed from school and sent Into the country. This ls one of the wo'rst movements. Removed from ordinary di? versions of the ever-changing scenes of the city, the powers of the body, too mach enfeebled te give zest to heal thru' and rnral exercise, tb cmg nip are turned inwardly upon themselves. If the patient be a'female the approach of the menses ls lr oked for with anxiety as the first symptom tn which naturels to show her saving power m diffusing the circulation and visiting the cheek with the bloom of health. Alas I Increase ot appetite has grown by what lt fed on. The energies of the system ?re prostrated, and the whole economy ls deranged. The beautiful and wonderful period In which body and mind under? go so fascinating a change from child to woman ls looked for in vain. The parent's heart bleeds in anxiety, and fancies thc grave bat waiting for its victim. HELMBOLD'S EXTRACT BUCHU, FOR WR?KNESS ARISING FROM EXCESSES OB EARLY INDISCHE:IOX, attended with the following symptoms: INDIS?

Nothing la more desirable to snch patients than Solitude, and nothing they more dread, for fear of themselves; no repose of manner, no earnest ness,no speculation; but a harried transition from one question to ano l,er. THESE SYMPTOMS, IF ALLOWED TO GO ON -WHICH THIS MEDICINE INVARIABLY RE? MOVES-SOON FOLLOW LOSS OF POWER, FATUITY AND EPILEPTIC FITS, IN ONE OF WHICH THE PATIENT MAY EXPIRE. Daring the Superintendence of Dr. WILSON at the HLOOMINGDALE ASYLUM, this sad result occurred to two patients. Reason bad for a time left them, and both died of epilepsy. They were of both sexes, and aboat twenty years or age. Who can cay that their excesses are not fre? quently followed by those direful diseases, IN* SANITY and CONSUMPTION T The records of the INMANE ASYLUMS, and the melancholy deaths by Consomption, bear ample witness to the truth of these assertions. Ia Lunatic A*>ylonu the most melancholy exhibition appears. The countenance is actually sadden and quite destitute; neither mirth nor grief ever visits lt.
