T., and Palmetto Division, No. 4, S. ot T;, took place at the Hibernian Hall last evening, and went on* In a manner highly gratifying toits originators. The audience was a fair one considering the attractions elsewhere, a large number of ladies being present. The exerci? ses was opened by a few appropriate remarks from the presiding officer, Brother E. E. Sell, P. G. W. P., followed by a prayer from the Rev. Mr. Smart. Brother Henry M. Mood and the Rev. C. S. Vedder then delivered able and Interesting addresses in turn. The for? mer noting the day and the lodge under Whose auspices the celebration was given, illustrated his remarks by a striking feature from the Life of Washington. He lik? ened the adversities of Washington to the trials of the Sons of Tem? perance, and said li they wished to gain a Trenton and Peace and Liberty, the Sons ol Temperance must push on with the same de? termination and perseverance which upheld the father of his country in the vicissitudes ol the war for Independence. The exercises then closed with a benediction from the Rev. Mr. Smart. Throughout the evening the garrison band of the Third Artillery were in attend? ance, and at intervals in the proceedings dis? coursed delightful music.

P, unfortunately did not arrrlve from Florida, and the societies were debarred the pleasure of hearing this great patriarch among the Sons of l^mperance. AT THE HEAD AND RING. Tho Charleston .?ounttd Social Club Chargirg and Catting-The Prizes, Presentation*, ?Sic. The trial of skill yesterday afternoon among the members ot tbe Charleston Mounted So? cial Club was spirited and closely contested. The club turned out about forty men, and these, upon their handsome horses and in their new uniforms, made a show which re? flected credit upon the organization and re? minded the spectators of the old Dragoons. They assembled about ene o'clock in King street, above Line, and, performing a few evolutions under the command bf Vlce-Pres ' Ident T. O'Brien, they formed In a field be? tween the King 6treet road and the depot of the South Carolina Railroad. In this field a course two hundred yards long had been prepared. About fifty yards from the starting point was the post with the wooden bead attached to Its side for a down? ward cut Seventy-five yards beyond was another wooden head for the side cut, and fifty yards further was a white ring, about three inches in diameter,suspended to a struc? ture similar to an old-fashioned gallows. For Borne time the horsemen tried the animals, amid much cheering and merriment from the assembled crowd, and then the busi? ness of the day began. The men rode by turne, and the manner in which the heads flew was wonderful, as the flashing sabres glided through the slim dried stick-necks. The riding was first rate, and the sword exercise showed great proficiency In handling the heavy basket-hllted sabres. Many took the heads and carried the ring every lime with clock-work precision, but there were some whose horses couldn't see lt. The animals did not like the posts so near, and gave the sus? picious-looking heads a wide berth, notwith? standing the reins and spurs of the riders. After a long and difficult contest the officers' prize, a fine silver goblet, was awarded to Dr. C. L. Myers, the surgeon of the company. .It was presented by secretary L. C. Lebenborn, with a few appropriate remarks, and received by the doctor with a neat response. The prizes were all given lor the best riding and sword exercise combined, and the first prize, a handsome silver goblet, was won by First Warden, F. W. Pieper. This prize was presented with complimentary remarks by President O'Brien, and was received by tbe winner with an appropriate response. The second prize, a set of silver castors, was awarded with similar ceremonies to Sec? ond Warden M. Hogan, and presented by President Christopher. The third prize, a pair of sleeve-buttons, was won by Mr. Albert Christopher, and the fourth prize, a pair of vases, was awarded to a modest yoong mao, whose horse did not encourage equestrian 'sports. This last prize was given for the worst riding and sword exercise in the company. The winner's horse was to blame for the riding, and an unlucky cut on the left side deelded the matter as to the sword exer? cise. The prize was presented by Dr. Myers, who consoled the recipient by telling him he had made the best out "over the lea" in the whole company. A little after four o'clock the prizes were all distributed, the speech making done, and all diBbanded In the highest Bplrits. A NEW ST.VAUOQDK.- The Israelites ot Co' lumbla bave taken the Initiatory steps toward the erection of a synagogue.

ACADEMY OP MUSIC-JANAUSCHEK AS LA DY MACBETH.-Macbeth diners from Shakspeare's other tragedies in the fact that Its dramatic action circles around two separate centres of interest, and that with the guilty hero who gives his name to the play is united the grand and Imposing figure of his yet more guilty wife. The mighty struggle of will with con? science, and of ambition with loyalty and faith; the excitement of desperate crime; the gnawing ol deadly and unsleeping remorse, and, finally, the appalling retribution which crowns the whole-all these elements ara combined lu this supreme effort of Bhaks' peare's genius Into a tragic picture which it must always task the highest powers of the actor to interpret. Madame Janauschek's histrionic abilities, as we have already said, are rather intense than subtle. Her power lies lu the thorough sur render ol her emotional nature to the passion of the moment, and not in the calm and de? liberate Intellectual conception ol the necessi? ties of the whole pari. Hence her delineations are often unequal; a fine nuance, a subtle dis? tinction will sometimes escape her; in the strength of her grasp upon the central Idea of a role, some of the softer shades of emotion, so necessary ta its complete representation, are lost or overlooked. Her passion ls whole souled and unhesitating, without any of the weakness of a finely-poised and less impetu? ous mind. In some respects this peculiarity of her genius fits her admirably for such a part as that of Lady Macbeth-a woman absolutely free from the doubt that paralyzes action while it stimulates thought, or the compre? hensiveness of moral view which involves lack of force in the evil-doing which ls to secure the object of the hour. But even in conceiving a Lady Macbeth, Shakspeare did not forget the touch of nature that makes the whole world kin. In the relations between Macbeth and his guilty consort, and in the un? conscious and so terrib'e pathos of the sleep? walking scene, an element ol tenderness ls In? troduced which we venture to think finds no adequate exponent In Janauschek's acting. For this reason we prefer her Marie Stuart and her Deborah to ber Lady Macbeth, despite ail the grandeur and Intensityjof tragic power which lt is Impossible to deny to her in the part. The house last night was literally crowded. To-night ??arie Stuart will be repeated by re? quest for the benefit of Madame Janauschck. "WHY THE DEVIL DON'T You ADVERTISE ?" So said a friend to me to whom I applied some years since to help me through with my busi? ness. And I advertised, and I am more grate? ful to that friend for bis advice than Ii he had given me $10,000.-DR. HELMBOLD. CRUMBS.-The corner-stone of the new town hall was laid in Sumter yesterday.

To BE LOOKBD INTO.-The disturbance on Wednesday evening In John street, near Eliza? beth, was caused by three colored girls, Lou? isa Thompson, Lyddy Mitchel and Elvira Washington, who quarrelled lu tho street and attacked each other on general principles.

One of the giris was much bruised and bunged. They were brought before the Mayor yesterday morning, and the case was referred to a trial Justice lor investigation.
