THE COTTON CATEBPTLLAB_A gentleman who visited James Island, on Saturday, in? forms us that the caterpillar has appeared there In very limited numbers. He could hear of Hs presence on only two plantations-those of Mr. W. W. Lawton and Mr. John McLeod; and eren on these lt could not be found except by a strict search. He reports the condition of the crops aa very promising, the plants heavily fruited, and the fruit well matured. The planters do not apprehend much damage lrom the worm, as they believe the cotton to be too ripe lorita ravages. Notwithstanding the number of showers that have recently visited the city the crops are needing rain. Another gentleman, who arrived in this city -from Edlflto, ou saturday, reports that rumors I were prevalent on that island of a few worms I having been found in the fields of Mr. Theo-1 dore Beckett. The crops there are un prece-1 dented ly fine. _ j DROWNED.-Charles Walker, a colored man employed by Hr. G. W. Burn as a boat-band for lorrying passengers across Ashley Blver, J at the foot of Spring street, was drowned about I three o'clock Sunday afternoon. Near the I foot ol Spring Btreet, a narrow but deep creek branches from Ashley River, and flows parallel with the street, on the north Bide. On this creek, about a hundred yards from its mouth, stands Mr. Burn's wharf. Walker had jUBt re turned from the west aide of the Ashley, and I waa sitting upon a bench near the head of thia wharf conversing with several of the other boat-hands. Soddenly rising, be re? marked that he was going to take a good bath, and forthwith sprang into the creek. The men upon the wharf, fearing that he would be drowned, Immediately manned a boat and weat to his rescue; but he sank j for the last time before they could reach him. Mr. Barn being notified, made every effort to recover the body but without effect. Several hours later, after the tide had fallen, lt was dragged to the Bur face by two fishermen. The deceased was about forty-five years old, and had been in I the employ of Mr. Burn for over fonr years. He was ? hard drinker, and it is supposed was laboring nader the Influence of liquor at the time of the drowning. He had thrown him self in the water on his arrival at the wharf a j few minutes earlier, but was taken out by persons on the ferry boat. Coroner Taft held I an inquest over the body yesterday morning, j The verdict of the jory was that the deceased accidentally drowned himself In a flt of tem- j porary insanity, caused by excessive use of J intoxicating liquor. . I CLUBS AND STABS_James Drayton, a UH tapper of unenviable notoriety, was arrested by Lieutenant Fraser on Saturday. He was turned over to a trial justice. Thomas Roach was found lying on his back at the corner pf King and Va nd erh?ret streets Saturday, overcome by the effects of his jolly nature. He was carried to the upper Guard house on a cart, and paid one dollar for his ride. John Mccormack, found reposing In a dreamy state beneath a shade tree in Aiken's Park, went up and paid one dollar. Cain Simons selected a spot on the premises ot the South Carolina Railroad In Line street, and laid him down there on Sunday night for I a comfortable Bleep.

Ia the case of County Commissioner McLaughlin, who has been Imprisoned by Jadge Lee for alleged contempt of court, Messrs. Corbin and Stone, the counsel for Mr. McLaughlin, yesterday made an application to Cblef Justice Franklin Moses, who happen? ed to be in the city upon private business, for the release of their client upon a writ of habeas corpus, and the case was set for a hearing at Ave o'clock last evening. At that hour the common pleas room of the County Courthouse was crowded with a mixed au? dience, attracted by the celebrity which has been given to thia case, and including almost every official of Charleston County. The chief Justice having taken his seat called for the return to the writ or habeas corpus, which was read by Sherill Mackey. This docu? ment not revealing the circumstances under which the petitioner was committed for con? tempt, tbe chief Justice defrauded to be In? formed ol those circumstances. Solicitor Whipper, who appeared for Judge Lee and In oDpositlon to the petition, argued against the right ot the court to inquire Into those circum? stances. He said the first question presented was whether Judge Lee had the right to Issue an attachment for contempt of court, and quoted the statute establishing the Inferior Court to show that he had. Then he argued that Judge Lee having issued such an attach? ment, no court ia the State had a right to re? view that action upon a writ o? habeas corpus. The Supreme Court, he admitted, could enter? tain an appeal irom the attachment, but no court, not even a court of appellate jurisdic? tion, could Interfere by means of habeas cor? pus. Mr. Corbin, In reply, said that there was a distinction between cases o? contempt which the solicitor had lost sight of. In the case o? an act of discourtesy or disobedience, amount? ing to contempt, committed In the presence of the court, when sitting as a court, no one would question the right of the Jadge to send the offender to prison; but In the case of a commitment for disobeying an order Issued from the judge, sent to a party beyond the presence of the court, lt became necessary to inquire whether the court had acted within Its 'Jurisdiction. He claimed that the order in question was entirely beyond the Jurisdiction o? Judge Lee; that the arrest was a lawless act, and that Judge Lee had no more right In that case to arrest Mr. McLaughlin .and thrust him into prison than he, Mr. Corbin, would have to go out into the street, catch any citi? zen by the neck, and drag him to jail for con? tempt of him. Chief Justice Moses decided that he must hear the cause of detention, and Solicitor Whipper, alter giving notice of an appe*' from the decision, produced the presentment uT the grand jury, the affidavit of Mr. McLaughlin and the order of Judge Lee, all of which have been reported from time to time In THE NEWS. Chief Justice Moses remarked that all the orders appeared to have been issued by Judge Lee. sitting in chambers, and that the powers of a Judge of an Inferior court sitting at cham? bers were very different from his powers when holding a court. He Inquired ii the solicitor were prepared to argue upon that point, and the solicitor not being so prepared, the case was adjourned until this afternoon at four o'clock. United States District Court-In Bank, raptcy. This court was opened at tbe usual hoar yesterday morning by Judge Bryan. Upon the petition o? Involuntary bankruptcy by the Dickson Fertilizer Company, in re George H. Lownsbury, debtor, the debtor was adjudged a bankrupt, <and the judge signed the customary warrant o? seizure, directed to the United States marshal. Upon the petition of D. B. Gilllland, credit? or, la tbo oaeo or Robert Martin, bankrupt, to set aside a aale made by the treaeurer of | Barnwell County, it was ordered that the sale be set aside and an Injunction be Issued per? petually debarring the purchaser irom claim? ing possession under the Bald sale; also, that the assignee proceed to advertise the lands for sale in an Augusta paper, a Charleston paper and the county paper of Barnwell, and that from the proceeds of that sale the sum ot $679 50 be paid to the purchaser above en? joined, Ac. The case of the Greenville and Columbia Railroad waa then taken up. This was upon the petition oi Daniel E. Scanne), of New York, for adjudging the Greenville and Colum? bia Railroad Company an involuntary bank? rupt, under the 39th section of the bankrupt law. The case has attracted much attention, and a large number of counsel were present to represent different interests involved in the proceedings. Messrs. Corbin and Stone and George D. Bryan appeared for the petitioner, Attorney-General Chamberlain appeared for the State of South Carolina, Messrs. A. J. Magrath, of Charleston, and C. D. Melton and John T. Rhett, of Columbia, for the railroad company. James M. Baxter, Esq., for the second mortgage bondholders, and Messrs Porter and O'Connor, Simonton and Bar ker, an d J. D. Pope, Esq., for other bondholders and creditors. The petition of Mr. Scanne! having been read, the counsel for the company filed a plea objecting to the jurisdiction of the court, and Attorney-General Chamberlain, who was about to leave the city, was heard In defence of | that plea and In behalf of the Interests of the State, and occupied the rest of the session o? the court. Mr. Chamberlain argued that the company could not be ad? judged a bankrupt under tbe 9th clause of the 39th section of the bankrupt law, which was the clause under which the proceedings were brought, and which provided" that when a manufacturer or trader suspends the payment ot commercial paper for fourteen days be shall be adjudged a bankrupt. He argued that the company was neither a manufacturer nor a trader within the meaning of the law, and that the coupons of the bonds of which payment had been suspended were not com? mercial paper. He Riso argued that the court could not at thia time, and In view of the na? ture and position of the suit now pending In State courts, at sume jurisdiction of tho case and entertain the petition tor involuntary Bankruptcy. At the conclusion of Mr. Chamberlain's ar? gument the court adjourned until ten o'clock tbls morning. Thc Criminal Court was opened by Judge Lee at ten A. M. yester? day.

Last Saturday evening a drunken fight oc? curred among a party of United States soldiers j stationed at Fort Pulaski, Savannah, which finally resulted in the deliberate and fatal shooting of one ol the soldiers by the sergeant [ ot the guard. It appears that the sergeant, Robert E. Carr, had arrested tbree of the dis- J orderly men, named Sherman, Gately and Mc-1 Glnnelly, and was taking them to the guard* house when Sherman .wanted to stop to pick up his cap, but Sergeant Carr objected and or? dered him to come along. This he refused to do until he got his cap. Sergeant Carr then rushed at Sherman and knocked bim down with a gun. This excited considerable indig? nation among the soldiers, and young Herman E. Jordan, who had In the beginning endeav? ored to quell the disturbance, remarked that J it was a shame to knock a mau down in that | style. This remark aroused the ire ol Ser? geant Carr, and he struck at Jordan with his gun. Falling to strike him he made a lunge' at him with his bayonet. Jordan retreated, when Carr brought bis gun to bear upon the retreating soldier. Finding it half-cocked he lowered lt, cocked lt, and deliberately fired at Jordan, the ball entering bia back, and bring? ing him to the ground instantly. The unfortu? nate young man was picked up by his com rades and carried to the surgeon's quarters, where he expired In a few minutes. The sergeant was lr mediately arrested and brought beiore a coroner's jury who rendered a verdict against him, and he was committed for trial. CHARLESTON COUNTY TAX SALES.

July 12. The Financial Chronicle saya: The market daring the past week has experienced another material decline, followed, however, by some re? action, which set m on Wednesday last. Our last report waa brought down to Wednesday, Joly 3. The Cotton Exchange waa then closed till Mon day, Jaly the 8th. In the meantime there was a limited business on the street to supply the wanta of spinners. When, however, the market reopen? ed on the 8th, quotations on the spot were re? duced Kc, and futures were XaKo per pound lower, followed on Tuesday by a further decline of Kc for spot cotton, and a greater decline for futures. On Wednesday there was a very Irregu? lar market, quotatlona on the spot being further reduced >?c, making ljic in three days, bnt futures became more active and buoyant, es peciahy for the next crop, and on Thursday the closing prices for October, November and Decem? ber were the highest ol the week. This coarse or the market for the new crop may be attributed to the reports or-damage to the growlog crop by rains aod worms. Contracts for i he present crop sympathised with this ad? vance, and gained further strength from the fact that the market had been oversold, and the profits from the decline were sufficient to Induce recent sellers to cover their contracts. To-day at the opening there was a farther recovery of Keon cotton oa the spot, and about that amount m fu? ture delivery, summer months. This advance In futnres was subsequently lost in great part, and the entire marker, at the olose was weak and nominal. The prices of furores lost reported (basis low midd lingi were 23 \ for August; 22 3-16 for September; 2011-16 for October; loj^c for No? vember; 19KC for December. The total sales of thia description for tbe week were 109,600 bales. For immealare delivery the total salis were 3800 bales, Including 104 bales for export, 3696 for consomption, and none for speculation or transit. Receipts per Railroad, Jaly in.
