ALFRED HUGER.-An admirable likeness ol this venerable and estimable citizen has been placed in the hall of the Chamber of Com? merce ipr the inspection of our citizens.

This painting, we under? stand, Is Intended for the ladles of the Con? federate Home, for the benefit of which In? stitution the accomplished artist, with his heart true to its native impulses, has pre? sented lt. All honor to the Bubject, the crea? tor and the noble object. THE STRIKE IN COLUMBIA.-The stone cut? ters engaged on the Federal Po3toffice In Co? lumbia struck on Friday in consequence often hours'work being exacted from themby Su? perintendent Kingsley, whereas, as they main? tain, eight hours is the usual time called for on government work. Mr. Kingsley, accord? ing to the Phoenix, thinks that this matter is misunderstood, and -that the government em? ployees put in the number of hours per day exacted in the different cities where they are employed. He compliments his late em? ployees on their efficiency and skilful work? manship, but thinks that a compliance with their demands would be taken as a precedent and work disastrously upon other employers. MORE BIO FEES.-A Joint resolution has been introduced in the General Assembly au? thorizing the attorney-general to employ as? sistant counsel, and appropriating Ave thou? sand dollars for the pay of the same, to de? fend the interest of the State in certain ap? peals from decrees of the Circuit Court of the United States.

While doing this his bat fell off, and Hicks grabbing the same, ran off with his prize. Heyward also went out of the store, but warned Mr. Meyer that he intended to kill him.

March has fairly "come In like a lion." On Friday morning last a strong breeze prevailed from the northeast which kept Increasing during the day, and towards evening had at? tained the force of a gale, accompanied by soaking rain squalls. As night advanced the wind stiffened, and towards midnight lt blew with intense power, maintaining its force un? til about three o'clock Saturday morning when it changed to north and west and moderated. The greatest strength of the gale was from twelve midnight Friday until about two A. M. Saturday, the wind blowing heaTiest from about east northeast, at which time the smaller vessels on the eastern side of the city were pitching bows under, and the waves had great size and force? Had this state of thc wind continued the amount of damage would have been considerable, but being of short duration most of the larger vessels, escaped with tri? fling damage. The British bark Architect, Captain Doddridge, lying at the head of Mar? shall's wharf, waB exposed to the fury of the blow, and, notwithstanding tbe persevering efforts of the officers and crew, the broadside of the bark was forced on to the wharf, and she was much chafed and her planking in? jured. A large sloop was* driven from off Southern wharf across the Ashley, and is now a wreck on the marsh off James Island. A waterboat, (sloop,) which was moored at the end of South Commercial wharf, broke Its fastenings through the violence of the storm, and was driven up to the head of Southern dock. It thumped here violently until the mast went over with a crash, falling upon the wharf and crushing a small boat. The sloop was secured as the tide receded, but is badly damaged. A schooner was driven on Sui ivan's leland beach. She is now aground among the breakers. Many of the smaller craft in the docks broke their fastening3, and were damaged in hull, spars and rigging. The pilot boat Atlanta, Captain McDonald, fortunately made the har? bor just as the gale was becoming severe, and got to an anchor In the roads, but had great difficulty in keeping ber moorings, and loBt an anchor. He reports the gale as extremely heavy. The schooner Mary E. Collins, from Greenport, L. I., came to an anchor off the harbor Just as_the blow was commencing, and lost an anchor and sixty fathom? of chain. All the vessels arriving report heavy gales, and the weather as sharp and trying. The steamships Manhattan from New Tork and Maryland from Ballimore had fearful seas and heavy gales during nearly the whole passage. The Storm at New Tork. The blow was felt along the whole Northern Atlantic coast. Telegrams received Indicate that the usual steamship departures from New Tork were deferred on account of the storm there. Among the steamships so detain? ed lathe mammouth steamship Georgia, with a large cargo and Atty passengers, for this port. The Georgia's cargo Indicates the first heavy movement ol spring goods over the popular Charleston route to the. South, and we bave no doubt succeeding arrivals will increase the volume ol business, as cotton'ie paying well. Deliveries on this line are quick ; and lhere ls no chance to getu p any yellow fever reports at this season of the year. The Storm at Other Points. * SAVANNAH, March 2. A severe rain and wind storm occurred last night. Two ships, two barks and five Balloon? ers were driven from their moorings. The damage was very slight, excepting to the hoisting;machine on the Ballimore steamship" wharf, which was totally destroyed. RICHMOND, March 2. The severest storm since January, 1857, Is now prevailing. It has been snowing heavily for twelve hours and still continues, with wind from the northwest blowing a hurricane and the snow drifting accordingly. WASHINGTON, March 2. The severest snow sjorm that has been known here for years prevailed all day. ? ATTEMPT AT SUICIDE.-Yesterday morning a white man named Thomas Clark, about sixty years of age, attempted to commit suicide by cutting his throat with a razor, at his boarding bouse In Meeting street, near the workshops of the South Carolina Railroad. He draw the edge of the razor across his windpipe, close under the chin, and was bleeding profusely when Borne women dis? covered him and gave the alarm. Surgeon Ancrum was at once called in, and the wound was sewed up promptly. The blade had not gone deep, and though the gash seemed to be a fearful one, there was little cut besides the skin. The patient was soon talking, and Is now doing well. His friends say Clark.has been dejected for some time, on account ot the death of his wife, and he says he has been Ill-used. He had been drinking, and wanted to end all of nie sorrows at once. He re? marked that lt took a strong hand to cut a throat, for he had drawn the knife across bis as heavily as he could. SCPBEKE COURT.-COLUMBIA, MARCH L-The court met at ten A. M. Present-Chlel Jus? tice Moses and Associate Justices Willard and Wright. The following decisions were ren? dered: J. R. Welsh, respondent, vs. J. N. Davis, ap? pellant. Motion denied. Opinion by Willard, A. J. Mose?, C. J., and Wright, A. J., con? curred. R. J. Donaldson, as receiver of the Bank \A Camdun, vs. W. E. Johnson, et al. Order affirming Circuit Court judgment already filed. Opinion by Moses, C. J. Justices Willard and Wright concurred. Emiline Bradley vs. P. Rodelsperger. De? cree of Circuit Court reversed, and case re? manded. Opinion by Willard, A. J. Moses, C. J., and Wright, A. J., concurred. E. Jackson vs. T. C. Weatherly. Appeal dismissed. Opinion by Willard, A. J. Moses, C. J., and Wright, A. J., concurred. The court adjourned until Wednesday, Otb at ten A. M. How TO UTILIZE THE ARTESIAN WELL.-D. W. A., In the March number of the Bural Carolinian, suggests a way of turning to account the Artesian well property, which now is of Infinitesimal value to the city. He .says: "There is a plethora In the money market." This ls the news I heard In Charleston in January, but alas! for us poor farmers, such news brings no relief. The plethora only re? mains witn those whose dally vocation ls to look out lor counterfeits. If this condition of things existed ia fact in Charleston, there is much roorr. for ease, for almost every corner in the city ask for investment, but none more so than tbe Artesian well corner, where the ragged tout ensemble of board fence, skeleton scaffolding, water trough and loquacious dray? men cry aloud for Internal improvement. If some of the idle money In the banks were invested in a capacious bathing saloon at this DOlnt it would receive remunerative custom nine months In the year. Thousands of In? valid Northern travellers would sojourn in Charleston if such a luxury were economically afforded them. The therapeutic qualities of that water are little known at present, but were opportunily offered to give it reputation, outsiders would inform the denizens of the city what a luxury and a treasure they have In their midst. This water should certainly be utilized by the city. If not as above recommended, why could lt not be the means of establishing a laundry in the elly where money could be made, and every man's clothing in the city waBhed, starched and ironed for half the present cost, and with much less liability to be lost or stolen ? I am told clothes worn in Mllwankleare often washed in Detroit, pev eral hundreds of miles off. Why should Charleston not wash clothes worn in Colum? bia ? XffJE YOUNO MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSO? CIATION. A Highly Interesting Meeting. The permanent reorganization of the Tonng Men'd Christian Association was effecte? on Saturday evening last, at the rooms on King street. At the appoluted hour Mr. Joseph Whl?den took the chair, and called upon the Bev. Mr. Smart to open the meeting with prayer, after which Mr. Wbilden congratulated the associa1 ion upon its choice of officers, and invited Hon. C. G. Memmlnger to aBsume the duties of president Colonel Memuainger in t ak i nz the chair returned thanks for the honor conferred upon him, and addressed the association at some length. He referred to the great work that was being entered upon, and called attention to the many difficulties that would be met, and must be surmounted, lt success should be theirs-difficulties Inward and outward. But when he alluded to outward difficulties, he did not mean only the gaming house or drinking saloon. He pointed out many obstacles to be overcome, and dwelt upon the literature of | the day, more especially scientific literature. He showed the necessity of meeting every quesiion;that geology or other science might advance, with Bible truths. In conclusion, he said he took his position as did St. Paul of old, but as St. Paul had the support of his younger brother Timothy, so he needed the support of every member of | the association. Faithful co-operation of all the younger members would make them all feel youthful, and prepare them for the mil lions upon millions of years of undying youth they were ti spend beyond the grave. Upon the call of the president, the secretary called tbe roll of officers elect, as follows: S. A. NelsoD, first vice-president; J. N. RobBon, second vice-president; S. Hyde, third vice president; W. C. Bee, fourth vice-president; R. G. Chlsolm, uah vice-president; F. A. Sil coi, recording secretary; J. B. Haskell, cor-1 responding secretary; E. E. Sell, treasurer. Ihe meeting was then addressed by vice President Nelson. He declared himself to be a worker, not a speaker, and pledged himself I to use every effort to promote the success of ] the association. vice-President Bee also addressed the meet? ing. He conceived that there was no time when an organization of thia kind was more needed than at present. Vices never walked forward more boldly, and intemperance never went forth more unblushingly, and lt was In? deed necessary that some action be taken for the safety of our young men. vice-President Hobson concurred in all that had been Bald, and was willing to put his shoulder to the wheel and do his utmost in carrying out the objects for which|they were banded together. After the transaction of the regular busi-1 ness the meeting adjourned, with prayer by Mr. George S. Cook. THE LAUHE.N'3 ROAD. -The Laurens Herald says that Mr. H. T. Peake, who bas Inspected the Laurens Road, Is of opinion that It can be put in running order by July. The Herald says : Mr. Peake will make a report at once to President Magrath In regard to the road, when the work will doubtless commence as soon as hands can be procured, which will doubtless require but Utile time, as we have heard of arl number who are holding themselves in readi? ness to go to work. Mr. Peake has large ex? perience in railroading, having been general superintendent of the South Carolina Railroad for some fourteen or fifteen years, and withal a practical machinist and engineer-in short, he ls a railroad man in every sense of the word, and lt is a matter of congratulation with our citizeos that such an one is to take our railroad In hand. CLUBS AND STAR?.-Charles Robin SOD, arrest? ed for rolling from the front of the store No. 73 Market street, a barrel which belonged to some one else, was sent to the House of Cor I tection for thirty days. v Abram Stuart and Joseph Nord, arrested for fighting al the corner of East Bay and Broad streets, were sentenced each to pay a fine of I one dollar. Joseph made up the sum, but j Abram left for the House of Correction furtive days. A colored man, who was found lying drunk in Church street during the storm on Friday night, was allowed to go free. Two white men, whose taste for strong drink led to their introduction to the Guardhouse, paid a dollar apiece for their night's lodgings there. Thomas F. Gleason was brought before a ] trial Justice on Saturday morning, charged with an assault with Intent to kill upon Ed ward O'Brien. After an examination, he was bound over in the sum of five hundred dollars to appear for trial at the next term of the Court of General Sessions. The same prisoner was shortly after arrested on a warrant from Trial Justice A. M. Mackey, charged with com? mitting an assault with a deadly weapon upon ConBlable J. M. Haley, who went to arrest him._ Hotel Arrivals-March 3 and 3. PAVILION HOTEL. John Mersham, Baltimore; Wm. J. Keen, Newark; Wm. D. Love, E. E. Kidder, Colum? bia; N. G.

Thursday night a most outrageous assault and attempt to rob was perpetrated upon i well known gentleman of this city in a thor? oughfare so frequented as the corner of Cal? houn and Rutledge streets. The gentleman had taken the last Rutledge street car going up town, which leaves the old Postofflce at} nine P. M., and bad'Jumped out In Calhoun street, as the car turned into Rutledge avenue. He walked up on the north side of Calhoun street, and was passing beneath the portico of the Rev. Mr. LaPar's dwell? ing, when a white man darted from behind one of the supporting pillars and snatched his watch. In doing this the ruffian also struck the gentleman heavily. The lat? ter, nothing daunted, returned the compli? ment, and gave bis assailant several blows in the face, which bled freely. By this time, the highwayman began to suspect that he had got hold of the wrong man, and, tearing loose from the hold of his intended victim, thc vil? lain ran off across the bridge down Butledge street. He was chased by tbe gentleman, who shouted for the police to no purpose, and the robber made good bis escape. The pursuer returned to the scene of the encoun? ter, and, aRer hunting awhile, found his watch lying upon the sidewalk, where It had been dropped by the disconcerted robber. It ls supposed that the assailant must have used a knife, as the gentleman's hand was cut to the bone In several places. The affair took place about half-past nine o'clock, and when the street car was not one hundred yards off. It seems to bave been a deliberate plan to rob, and Is certainly one of the most daring out? rages which has startled our community for some time past_ AMUSEMENTS.
