Gilliland, T. A. Beam? ish and A. G. Magrath, Jr. CLUBS AND STARS.-Charles Harvey, lodg? ed for lying drunk In Wentworth street, near East Bay, was fined one dollar.

By orders from the War Department a similar salute was fired at every artillery post. in the United States. * ACCIDENTALLY KILLED.-The German sai? lor who was wounded on Tuesday morning by the fall of a stone from a ballast tub revived a little In the afternoon, but died during the night.

Lewie &Nissr, of Columbia, are constructing a new steam saw mill, machine shop and lumber yard, on the vacant lot near the shops of the Cnarlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, the whole to cover lour acree. Work is progressing very rapidly. INQOEST.-The Jury of inquest In the case of Jack Henderson, the prisoner who died In jail, under an indictment for rape, assembled yesterday morning and concluded their in? vestigation. They found that the deceased came to his death from a congestive chill caused by Insufficient clothing and the want of covering. ^_ DRAWING THE STAPLE.-Jack Peronneau, another member ot the youthful band of col? ored cotton stealers, was arrested on Accom? modation wharf; on Tuesday night, In the act of pulling the cotton from the bales. He was brought before the Mayor yesterday morning, and after a hearing turned over to a trial jus? tice for prosecution.

THE SELF-RIGHTING CUSPADORE.-This is the name of a very handsome, new-style metallic spittoon which has Just been Intro? duced Into the Charleston market by MesarB. Thomas & Lanneau, No. 289 King street. It cannot break, and cannot be upset. If thrown on Its side it rights itself immediately. The cuspadore being of a graceful shape, and the ornamentation varied and agreeable (far be? yond the usual style In metal goods,) will answer in place of waste paper basket or vase in offices, while lt promises to supercede the spittoon wherever style and neatness are pri? mary objects._ ARRIVAL OP THE GULP STREAM-SEVERE WEATHER-This regular line steamship ar? rived from Philadelphia early yesterday morn? ing, haying left that port on Friday last, with l&fuU cargo of merchandise. Captain Hunter reports that he did not get clear ot the Capes until Sunday evening, owing to the ice, which was twelve or thirteen Inches thic'-: at some points ol the bay. The weather was worse than is remembered for some years past.. The decks, rigging, &c, of the Gulf Stream were covered with Ice, and walking about was attended with the risk of having pieces of Ice dropped on to one's head from the rigging and spare. We are glad to know that captain and crew all got through In good condition and are very glad to get into the latitude of Dixie. MACKEY ON THE STAND.-T. J. Mackey, the judge elect of the Sixth Circuit, made a speech at Union Courthouse, on the 5th. He excused Lim self for being a Radical by urging that the course which "Longstreet followed and Ster? ling Price approved" could not be far from the path of honor. He proposes to fortify himself "by frequent communion with his Maker,"' and tells the colored people to let their vengeance sleep, and that they will not need again to bear anni at night. If there is any resistance to the law, Governor Scott will send a force of militia to the county, and ll they are whipped out the United States troops will be called on to reinforce, not supersede, the military arm of the State. He promises to be Just to all men, and to administer the law with mercy. In conclusion, he eulogized Grant aa the friend of ihe colored man. AMUSEMENTS. The Wyndham Comedy Company. Craven's comedy of "Milky WUte" was given by the Wyndham Company at the Acad? emy, last evening, wilh marked* success. The play Itself has no special merit, but it was capitally acted; and Mr. Belvil Byan in the title role, and Miss Cowell a3 Annie White, were re? markably effective. A very amusing farce, "The Goose with the Golden Esgs," concluded the entertainment. The Wyndham Company are so admirably trained, and their "stage business" is so perfect, that it is difficult to discriminate among them. We can only say that, for quiet and natural acting, we have sel? dom seen their equals on Charleston boards. By particular request, Taylor's favorite play of "Still Waters Run Deep" will be repeated this evening. AH who have not yet seen this company In this play will do wisely to repair the omission to-night. Reopening of the Roller-skating Rink This Evening. The roller-skating Rink at the Academy of Music will be reopened this* evening, and lt is hoped that the lovers of the healthful and ex? hilarating sport will turn out in full force to give the enterprise a fair start. The feats of Mr. Dio8moor, the champion skater, will, we are assured, be a new revelation to Charles tonians; and, conducted in the manner pro? posed by Mr. Bernard, the Rink ls likely to prove more than ever a pleasant and popular institution of our city. The German Fire Company Masquerade The grand masquerade ball of the German Steam Fire Engine Company took place in the concert ball of the Academy of Music last evening, and went off with a success most gratifying to the managing committee. Soon after eight o'clock the crowd began to collect, and by half-past nine the fun grew fast and furious. The ladles this time seemed to have abandoned the grotesque and comic to the lords of creation, and consoled themselves with the quiet domino, and a variety of rich and elegant costume?. Picturesque peasant girls, Highland lasses, jaunty vivandiers, and shy shepherdesses, marched gaily around while here and there some daughter of the regiment would, In the Intervals of the music, mark the lime for them by beating upon her drum. A single old mauma, with a hideous mask and homespun irock and a supporting staff, carried around her baskei of rags, and eyed the circling costumes askant. One young lady had a skirt of red and white stripes which, with a handsome boddlce ot blue, produced a strikingly pa? triotic effect; Among the gentlemen the costumes were very diversified. A red-crosB knight in silver-plated armor, from head to foot, was among the most stately, and every grade, down to the old Charleston wood-saw? yer, had Its personator. Sturdy men in buck? ram (pasteboard) and plumed cavaliers in Kendall green came next, with a retinue of clowns and Jesters in every variety of variega? ted paper cambric suits and elongated hats. Sam Suck and Brother Jonathan were not for? gotten, and a gauky carpet-bagger from the Scott Ring announced, In big letters upon his carpet-bag, that he was going back to Massachusetts ? as they had su eke J all the money they could out of South Carol! na. One old colored mauma, whose half-bidden beard belied her sex, became quite affectionate as the ball progressed, and put to flight the modest maskers with his oscillatory demon? strations. The most comical figure on the floor, andrthe cynosure of all eyes, was "Wil? sons Heathan Chinee." He was dressed ex? actly like the picture on Wilson's grocery wagon, and hts loose suit was profusely illus? trated with the "dollar tea." Swung to a stick he bore a sawdust "Davis's diamond ham," and upon the legs of his pants was written "Davis's diamond-."j Muller's fine band had the stand in the gal? lery, and played with their accustomed sweet? ness. About eleven o'clock the maskers, at a signal, laid aside, their uncouth habiliments, and the scene..,was changed Into a delightful costume bal^-whlch was kept up until the small hours of morning. The Robbers. The Germans contemplate giving a first class dramatic representation some time next month, at the Academy of Music, for the bene? fit of the new church. Schiller's famous tragedy ol' "The Robbers" is spoken of as the piece likely to be selected for the occasion. TH GERMAN RIFLE CLUB.-An extra meet? ing of this club will be held at eight o'clock this evening, at Llndstedt's hal'. FIRE.-A little after twelve o'clock yester? day a fire broke out In the hand press of R. H. Harney, on the alley next south of Exchange street, which threatened to be a serious affair, but was luckily promptly extinguished by the employees of the establishment with buckets of water. The door of the large apartment In which the press ls located was strewn with a lot of damaged cotton opened out to dry, and the owner and employees were all In the office above when the smoke began to rise up from the room below. They ran down and found the cotton in flames, which speedily communicated to several large bundles of as? sorted rags lying near by. Toe alarm was given at once, and, at the ric ging of the bells, the engines and Hook and Ladder, No. 1, were soon on-the gpo c. BJ io re they could get to work, however, the fire had already been ex? tinguished as above mentioned, with the aid cf several of the firemen. No damage was done beyond the lois" of ; the cotton and rags, which the proprietor estimates at between two and three hundred dollars. There was no insurance on the property destroyed.
