DROPPED FROM THE CLOUDS.-About three o'clock yesterday morning a fdmlly residing at No. 8 Bose lane were awakened by a nelse at their street door, which seemed to combino the soft crooning of a cart wheel with the sharp tenor of a tom cat. On investigation lt was found to proceed from a blanketed bundle on the door steps, which on being opened re? vealed a fine baby about ten days old. It soon established the fact that it was alive and kicking, and was taken Indoors by the kind? hearted finders. It ls a fair-skinned female child, has black hair, nineth,, and appears to be utter white br a quadroon. It seems to be heaahy and In good spirits. /3 ANOTHER RAILROAD ACCIDENT.-About half -past ten o'clock on Monday morning two cars of the passenger train on the Savannah and Charleston Railroad, which left this city at 8.15 A. M., ran off the track between Adams's Bun and Jacksonboro,' a short distance be? yond the former station. The conductor's car and the second-class passenger coach were thrown off, but no one was hurt excepting Jno. Hudson, an employee in one ol the ma? chine shops of the road, who was standing on the platform between the two cars. He was thrown violently out, and had his leg badly cut and mashed. The damage done to the # train was Blight, and the line was cleared yes? terday morning. CLUB?

ABjpTAL OF THE STEAMSHIPS GEORGIA AND GULF STREAM.-The steamship Georgia, of the New York line, arrived here on Monday nights after a rapid voyage from New York and the absence of less than a week from this port, hav? ing sailed on Monday last. She brought down considerable cargo, and a number of passen? gers.- ' The steamship Gulf Stream, from Philadel? phia, arrived early on Tuesday morning with a very large and valuable cargo. The growth of business on this line 1B rapid, and now gives foll cargoes both ways to two first class Iron steamships. The Guli Stream sails on Friday, and makes close connection with first class steamers to Boston, to which city through bills, o? lading are issued. THE DEATH OF JONAS BTBD.-We learn with regret that this staunch colored citizen died yesterday; the . principal cause of his death being a severe fall which Injured his head. Jonas Byrd took a prominent part in the Re? form canvass of 1870, and stumped the State with Judge Carpenter and General Butler. His courageous and consistent conduct at that time won for him the respect of the people. By rd. was a thorough ly conscientious man, and devoted to the interests of his race; which in? terests, he was well satisfied, would be better served by co-operating with the white citizens of the State than by hanging on to the Radical party who, in this State, have no higher aim than place and publie plunder, y ? Ay UOLT CHANCE AT A RAFFLE.-On Mon? day night a colored woman named Henrietta Fraser gave a public party at her residence in Elizabeth street, and, to make the matter more attractive, started to raffle a cake and a few doll babies. A i little before eleven o'clock a quarrel arose in the assemblage be? tween John Singleton and Saul Thompson, and the former, drawing a razor, gave Saul a hack over the head with tho same. He then ran out, and lu the most tragic style flung the instrument over the house. The disturbance attending the affray brought in the police, and Henrietta and Singleton were both arrested. Saul's wound proved to be of little moment, and Singleton was fined one dollar by the Mayor. Henrietta, for giving a raffle without a license, was fined two dollars. SERIOUS CONFLAGRATION IS SAVANNAH.-A fire occurred in Savannah on Saturday night, resulting In abont twenty thousand dollars loss. The fire originated in the establishment of ?. SchleBsenger, wholesale grocer and com? mission merchant, occupying the second floor of the building. His large stock of groceries, bacon, ?c., was completely destroyed, upon which there rests an Insurance of three thou? sand dollars la the agency of Mr. Henry Woodbridge. The building, which has been very seriously damaged by fire and water, ls the property of Mr. J. T. Blacklock, of Charles? ton, af?d is Insured for five thousand dollars In the above agency, and also for au amount In other agencies, which will probably cover the loss. Such were the apprehensions of the spread of the flames that the entire fire de? partment turned out. The damage done will not exceed twenty thousand dollars. UNITED STATES COURT.-Judge Bryan pre? siding. In the District Court an attachment wa? ordered against fifty-three boxes of man? ufactured tobacco found with Nash & Dalon, claimants, for violation of the Internal reve? nue law.

TBS nrcEirsB A?TB STAMP LAT Action of tBe Chamber of Coma And Board or Trade. A special meeting of the Chamber of merce was held yesterday at two P. M., ] dent S. Y. Tu-per ID the chair. The meeting having been called to o the chairman announced that they had vened for the purpose of taking Into cons atlon, as affecting the Interests of Charle the two bills for a general license law, an stamp duaee, now before the commltt< ways and means of the Legislature of State. The bills bore directly and unj upon the commerce of the city, and, if pa must prove eminently Injurious. They ' calculated to drive away commerce, an discriminate against Southern manufacl for-the encouragement of those of the Ni These bills would paralyze all the enterp: for the benefit and advs i.-ement of the now on foot, and it behooved the Chambe whom commerce was all in all, to take ir ures to guard against these evils, and to a the additional burden proposed to be pli upon the people. Mr. William C. Bee Bald that, coi erlng the circumstances 01 the case, tl could hardly be a division of sentln among the members. To keep silence garding the iniquitous measures now bei the Legislature would be a palpable dere tion of duty. The only question was, vs form of action should betaken. %The enoi ties of the bills were too gross and paten need description; to point out what wa glaringly clear would be an insult to the telUgence of the Chamber. Aa to the qi tl on now they should proceed, be knew better mode than to send a committee of Chamber to Columbia, who should come fore the ways and means committee of House, and, being masters of the subj? should discuss the bills and show the dang apprehended from them. He then read the lowing preamble and resolutions, which w unanimously adopted: The Chamber having been credibly inloi ed that there ls now under consideration the committee of ways and means of I House of Representatives at Columbia, a i designed to Impose licensed and a stamp upon certain commercial, financial, manu! turing and other industrial pursuits, which, the event c.' i>8 becoming a law, will prc fatal to many of the interests involved; pre dlcial to the welfare of the people of the Sta foster elsewhere Important enterprises th destroyed at home, and, so far from incre lng, will actually diminish the revenues ol t State Government; therefore, Besolved,Th&t a committee of members of tl body be appointed to proceed promptly to ( lumbla, with the view ot arresting, if prac cable, a legislation which can only be dist trlous in Its reBults. . - The chair appointed the following comm tee: Hon. W. D. Porter, W. C. Bee, W. T. Hs C. A. Cbisolm, J. D. Aiken, Jamea M. Carse C. 0. Witte and E. Willis. These matters having thus been dispos of, President Tupper rose and said lt beean his painful duty, at this stage of the procee ings, to announce to the Chamber the death their recently elected second vlee-presidec Major F. J. Porcher. No member of tl Chamber had won more quickly and firm their regard and confidence. No member the Chamber was more highly esteemed f< excellence of character and personal courtes Be did not propose to pronounce an eulog but only desired to bring the painful subje before the Chamber. Mr. L. D. Mowry Bald the members of tl Chamber were In sorrow for the death of friend whom they all loved. During his li he had bad frequent business traneactloi with Mr. Porcher, and nothing had ever o curred to mar the harmony of their Inte course. He begged leave lo offer the follov lng resolutions: Resolved. That this Chamber bas heard wit feelings ot deep sympathy and recret ot tb sudden death of their late Becond vice-pres dent, F. J. Porcher, In whose decease we hav lost an active and useful officer, and the con munlty an enterprising and valuable citizen. Resolved, That the Hag of the Clamber b left at half-mast from sunrise until sunset tc day. Resolved, That this Chamber will aaeembl to attend the funeral obsequies of the decease at such time as may be Indicated to them b the president In the morning ne wspapers. Resolved, That a commit tefl of three be ac pointed by the chair to prepare a suitabl preamble and resolutions expressive of tb sentiments of the Chamber at thia ead be roavement. The chair appointed the following commit tee: L. D. Mowry, Jno. Hanckel and L. D. De Saussure. ' Mr. Jno. Hanckel rose to second the r?solu tiona, but said lt was Impossible to do so ii fitting words. It was a sad event, and lt bat come upon them with startling suddenness From boyhood to manhood the Chamber bac known the deceased; and the name of F. J, Porcher must ever bring up the pleasantest recollections, for to know him was to love him. Like a clap of thunder from a cloudless sky''was the announcement of his death, and in a moment, the hand of destiny had snatched from them one whom they loved indeed. The resolutions were then put and unani? mously adopted. As a further mark of respect to their deceas? ed officer, Mr. Wm. Bavenel begged leave to offer the following: Resolved, That the merchants of our city are hereby requested, during the funeral of our respected deceased second vice-president, to close their offices, and that the halls of the chamber be also closed. The resolution was adopted and the Cham? ber adjourned. Meeting of the Board of Trade. Pursuant to a call from their president, a number of the members of the Board of Trade met at their rooms last night to protest against the stanfp act and license bill now un? der consideration in the Legislature. Presi? dent DeLeon briefly stated the object of the meeting, and called for an expression of opin? ion from the members. Mr. W. 8. Hastie described the detrimental effect that would be produced by the passage of these bills; that not only the mercantile In? terests of the city would Buffer, but her vitali? ty weuld be sapped In every direction. He, therefore, offered the subjoined resolution: 7b the Honorable, the Senate and Rouse of Re? presentatives of the State of South Carolina : The petition of the Board of Trade of the Clly of Charleston respectfully representa to your honorable bodies, that they have noticed with deep dismay the introduction of a bill I, *o the House of Representatives, entitled a "General License Law," which taxes every branch of industry, and strikes at the laborer and artisan. The State taxes as at present levied, when added to our city taxes, are as much as any people with our moderate prosperity and business can bear; our City of Charleston ls deeply in debt, and every trade and business has been taxed in the way of license to its utmost capacity; there is. therefore, nothing len in the way of license tax for the State to operate upon. Your petitioners are deeply impressed with the fact that the present high rates ol'taxation has kept large amounts of capital from coming into our State, which capital could have been made vastly productive in the manufacture of cotton, and would have given employment to large numbers of our people, and would have produced In turn property again taxable. Your petitioners connot euter Into an elabo? rate argument as to the misfortunes which they believe the passage of the State license bill will entail upon them, but they are firmly Impressed with the b3llef that lt will drive away the little capital that is left amongst us. Your petitioners, therefore, earnestly pray 1 your honorable bodies that the license bill may not become a law. Mr. G. W. C.ark objected to the resolution receiving the sanction bf the Board unless there was a larger representation of members and a fuller expression of opinion. Hr. 6. 8. Cameron thought delay was dan? gerous, as the subject matter was now under consideration in the Legislature, and the peo? ple of Charleston should be up and moving. He Instanced, as an example, the phosphate companies. They were a young and growing interest, and would aid materially in develop? ing the resources and adding to the capital of Charleston; but if the iniquitous schemes pro- [ pounded in the Legislature were carried into effect, the companies could, for the amount ol tax imposed, move into Georgia and conduct their business in that State. Northern com? panies that are Bubject to no such tax would introduce their fertilizers, and the home man? ufacture be unable to compete. Banking cap? ital would also suffer with other Investmente. The city, State and United States taxes were now larger than those paid elsewhere, amount- j lng to nearly faur and a quarter per cent of | the capital. Any Increase of this taxation would necessarily compel a change ot Invest? ments to a source where dividends were more certain than those the banking interest would be able to promise. Mr. Clark agreed with Mr. Cameron, and desired to have JuBt such views expressed. Mr. Henry Buist said that if these acts were passed lt was a virtual prohibition of ali trades, professions and mercantile pursuits. The acts were simply infam?os, and the prac? tical question before the Board was, how to ar- J rest their passage ? He thought that If a com? mittee* of representative citizens should vlsi t Columbia, and plaee the question before the Legislature, fairly, logically and reasonably, they would be received in a similar spirit. The presentation of memorials was of no prac? tical value, but ? petition presented by men who had the interests ot the city at stake, car? ried a moral weight that insured at least a re-1 spectful hearing. The president read a communication from the Chamber of Commerce giving a synopsis of the action of that body and the names of the committee appointed, and asking that a similar committee be appointed by the Board ol Trade. Major Willis moved that the jhalr appoint committee of eight to proceed to Columbia ano>present the action of the board to the Legislature. Adopted. The president appointed Messrs. G. H. Wal? ter, A. Simonds, G. Lamb Buist, Dr. N. A. Pratt, E. Bates, Zimmerman Davis, J. H. Dev? ereux and J. B. E. Sloan. On motion the board then adjourned. MORTUARY REPORT FOR THE WEEK.

AMUSEMENTS. .Tanauschek-Deborah. It ia no mean triumph Tor Madame Janau? schek that, Ina community known to bethe most fastidious-perhaps we ought to say the most unimpressionable-as to things dramatic, I in the entire Soutb, she has awakened a genu I lne enthusiasm and filled the Academy with audiences which, in brilliancy and numbers, eclipsed even those which assembled to listen to the fair Swede who came amongst us her? alded as the Queen of Song. The Impression was somehow very general among those who saw the tragedy of Mary Stuart, on Monday night, that they had seen Janauschek at her best; but the universal verdict of all who at? tended both performances, was that in De? borah, last evening, the genius of the great actress shone even more conspicuously. Intensity is the leading characteristic of | Janauschek's acting; and lt would-be hard to find a single role in which the same scope is afforded for the play of so many successive and distinct emotions, as in Deborah. In the first two acts we have the fire of passionate. and consuming love; In the third, pity and pathos, and the conflict of duty and devotion; in the fourth, horror, Jealousy, revenge and unrelenting hale; while the fifth crowns all with so tender a picture of mercy and forgive? ness and all-conquerlog though hopeless love as to win the tribute of unbidden tears from the beholders. Not for one Instant, last even lng, did Deborah relax her hold upon the in? terest and sympathy of her audience. The realism of the part was absolutely painful. It was not JanauBchek; lt was the outcast Jewess herself. The dramatic triumph was com? plete. The support given to' Jananschek by her company was really good; bnt this, as well as the not very elaborate mise en ac?na, was in great measure overlooked in presence of the towering genius of the central figure. To-night, in the drama of Chesney Wold, the stage version of Dickens's Bleak House, Madame Janauschek enacts a double part. The plats at the box office already ensure a crowded bouse. "ThcBC are my Jewels." The magnificent Jewels at various times pre? sented to Madame Janauschek were on exhi- j bltlon yesterday at the Jewelry store of Messrs. Carrington, Thomas A Co., In Hing street. The collection ls a brilliant one, and attracted the attention and admiration of numberless ; ladles and gentlemen. Among the Jewels ls a diamond ring valued at $18,000; a diamond cross, with chain, $15, 000, presented by the Emperor of Russia; diamond earrings, from the Sing of Holland, $22,000; rubles and pearls, from the Queen of Wurtemburg, $7000; locket Bet with diamonds, very valuable; bracelets, from the Klug of I Bavaria, set with five diamonds, $10,000; dla- [ mond cross, from an American gentleman, $8000; emeralds, from the King of Greece; carbuncle, diamonds, earrings and locket, from a Turkish minister. They will be contin? ued on exhibition to-day. The Abbot Pantomime Troupe? This troupe will oegin their engagement In Charleston on Mondaymlght next. Mr. Abbot ls styled "the modern Grimaldi," and, a9 a | side splitting clown, has no superior in his profession. The other members of the troupe possess special mimetic ability, and our ex? changes report that the entertainment ls highly enjoyable. CRUMBS.-Fogarl le's Book Depository ac-1 knowledge the receipt of eight dollars, through the Bev. J. Julius Sams, collections from the Episcopal Church, Summerville, In aid of the Ladlee' Fuel Society. Janauschek's dramatic season, which closed at Richmond, Va., on Saturday night, was the most successful ever known in that city, the gross receipts for the week amounting to six thousand dollars.

The supplies put into market this season are, as heretofore, prepared under the personal superin? tendence of Dr. St. Julian Ravenel, Chemist of the Company, at Oharieston, S. C., hence planters may rest assured that its quality and composition ls precisely the same as that heretofore sold. At the present low price, every acre planted can be fertilized with 200 pounds Guano at a cost not exceeding the present value of so pounds of cotton, while experience has shown that under ? Favorable condition of season and cultivation, the crop is increased by the application from two to three-fold the natural capacity of the soil, hence ander no condition could its application faU to compensate for the outlay.
