Exnibltlon To-Day of the George W. Clyde. The new Iron propeller George W. Clyde, of the Philadelphia line, which arrived at this port a few days ago, will be thrown open for the inspection ot visitors at her berth at Union wharf,|between the hours of eleven and one o'clock this morning, and Is well worthy ofa visit from all who are interested in naval architecture and improvements, or who can admire and appreciate a perfectly appointed vessel. The Clyde ls from the shipyard of Messrs. Wm. Cramp & Sons, one of the larg? est firms of machinists and Iron steamship builders on the Delaware River, and her ap? pearance reflects great credit on her builders. THE HULL ls of heavy plate-Iron on a strong frame of the same metal and double riveted throughout. Her length ls two hundred and twenty-six feet, breadth ol beam thirty-five feet and depth of hold nineteen feet. She registers one thous? and and thirty-two tons, and has a carrying capacity equal to twenty-two hundred bales of compressed cotton. With a cargo of cot? ton her draft ls eleven and a half feet aft and nine feet forward, but with the very heavy freight brought down on her present trip from Philadelphia, which consisted of iron castings, molasses, sugar, flour, liquors, Ac . which was the largest and heaviest cargo ever landed here from Philadelphia, she drew fourteen feet aft and eleven feet forward. THE MACHINERY. The engine ls of English pattern, and ls known as the compound engine, a style of en? gines that is Bald to possess remarkable ad? vantages over the old-fashioned marine en? gines. The cylinders are of twenty-four and thlrtajelght Inch diameter, respectively, with a thirty-six inch stroke, and the engines work up to three hundred and fifty horse power on a consumption of eight tons of coal per day .and making from nine to ten knots an hour. 'One of the greatest advantages of these en? gines ls their great economy of fuel, which ls said to bea saving of forty per cent., and this of course makes less space requisite for coal bunkers, and accordingly effects a large gain in freight room. ABOVE DECKS. The cabin accommodations are ample and admirable. The staterooms, as In all Messrs. Clyde's vessels, are on deck, thus securing the perfection of ventilation and absolute freedom from all the odors ot the bold and cargo. The cabins and staterooms are com? fortably and even elegantly finished in maple and black walnut, and the bedding and up? holstery are all or the very best material and make. The dining saloon is4arge, well venti? lated and inviting, and the cooking apart? ments, pantry, Ice-house, ?c., are all admira? bly adapted to the various purposes for which they are Intended. TBE COURTS YESTERDAY. United States District Court. In the District Court before Judge Bryan the marshal was ordered to procure suitable clothing for Columbus Ramsay, W. C. Ramsay, Wm. Quinn, W. L. Spencer} Adolphus Smith, C. Moss, L.W. DawBon, R. W.Moore and R. J.Trent, prisoners in the jail, at a cost, not exceed eighteen dollars per mau. Tbe petition of Godfrey Harmon, et al, for th? involuntary bankruptcy of Sol. C.

Yesterday afternoon, about four o'clock, a public test of tbe qualities of this valuable In? vention took place on the Citadel Green, In the presence of an Immense crowd of men and boys. Six barrels Siled with pitch, rosin, shavings, ic, were piled up in the form of a pyramid, and, on the application of au ignited match, tbe whole mass was quickly enveloped In flames. As soon as the fire was well un? der way, and burning with prodigious fierce? ness, Chief Nathan came out with the machine strapped to his back. He quickly charged it with the acid soda and water, and, walking up to within twelve feet of the fire, began io play upon the lower tier ot barrels. The stream was strong and foamy, similar to that from a soda water fount. Its effect upon the fire was Instantaneous. Wi ere ver it struck the flames and heat died o-it like magic, and be? fore the contents of the machine were ex? hausted the Are was well under control. Jt increased a little while Chief Nathan recharg? ed his machine, which was done in about a minute's time. The fire was then put out in a short time. The test was satisfactory to all present as to the powers of the machine. The chief difficulty lies ia the use and application ol lt. A short time after the flrst trial the flames kindled again among the inflammable mate? rials, and having been encouraged into quite a respectable fire the machine was again ap? plied with perlect success. The performance was most closely watched by a large crowd ol urchins, whose cheers and shouts as the ma? chine began to play were long and loud. ANOTHER INCENDIARY FIBE.-The r.ew Methodist parsonage of the Walterboro' cir? cuit, at Round 0, Colleton County, occupied by Rev. B. G. Jones, waa fired by an incendi? ary afew-nlght8 ago and burned to the ground with Its contents. The fire was kindled against the door of the kitchen, vhlch ad? joined the dwelling, and bad proceeded so far when discovered that lt waa found impossible to extinguish lt. The parson ag J was built lase year at a cost to the circuit ot eight hundred dollars. SMASHUP ON THE SHELL ROAD.-Wednesday afternoon a spirited horse attached to a top Buggy took fright on the shell road, not far from the city, and dashed off up the road at a furious pace. The driver tried in vain to con? trol the frightened animal, and was at length thrown out, without injury, on the slope op? posite Chinquapin lane. The horse rushed on faster than ever, clearing the road in splen? did style until he arrived opposite Mr. Sand ers's garden. 1 he lore wheels of the buggy here Btruck a telegraph poBt, and the vehicle waB literally smashed to pieces. The horse kicked clear ol the wreck and, continuing his course, was captured some distance up the road. No one waa hurt. A. GREETING FROM DELAWARE. Magnificent Present from the Wi!? mlngton Firemen to their late Hosts of the Charleston Steam Depart? ment. Tbe visit to Charleston last November of the Washington Steam Fire Engine Company, of Wilmington, r ela ware, and their cordial re? ception b.v the Bteam fire engine companies of this city, will be remembered by our readers, and it has apparently been very gratefully remembered by the gen? tlemen who were the welcome guests of our firemen on that occasion. The Wilmingtonlans have now sent to their late hosts a costly, appropriate and elegant memento of that pleasant occasion in the shape of eight beautiful silver fire trumpets, which could hardly have cost much less than five hundred dollars, accompanied by a grace* ful and grateful set of resolutions expressive of the appreciation by the Delaware firemen j of their cordial welcome here and of the en-1 daring and pleasant recollections ol the event j that they have retained. The trumpets are very heavily plated with silver on white metal, with silver cords and tassels and gold-plated chains, and each bears the following inscrip? tion: : From the citizens or WI mlngton, : : Delaware, : : to the : : Fire Department or Charleston, : -se s. c. : : February 6, 1872. : The trumpets were consigned to Chief Na- j than, and upon their receipt a consultation was held by the presidents of the different steam companies as to their disposition. It was unanimously decided to present four of the trumpets to Chief Engineer Nathan and the three assistant chief engineers of the de-1 partaient, Messrs. R. Alexander, C. P. Aimar | and F. L. O'Neill; but the question of the most appropriate disposition of the remaining four was a matter of some doubt. Each company was | of course desirous of the honor of possessing one of the beautiful trophies, and each ap- | peared to have equal claims for the distinc? tion, and lt was Anally agreed to leave the ap? portionment of tbe remaining trumpets to the arbitrament of chance. Accordingly the pre? sidents ol all the steam companies again met at Chief Nathan's office last Wednesday eve- ? nlng and drew lots for the coveted prizes. The fortunate companies were the German, the Hope, the /Etna and the Marlon, and these companies have now received their trumpets and given them honored places j among the decorations of their respective halls.
