MOUNT T?LEASANT.
A Thriving ?.nd Promising Town Across
the RI rer*
Few places are more happily situated than
the Town of Mount Pleasant, which has a bold
location, with Charleston harbor In full view
and within fifteen minutes' run of the city.
The back-country ls well adapted to farming!
ncrposeb, and .fruits and vegetables may I
there be raised to perfection. So numerous
axe the advantages ot the town, as a com?
fortable dwell log place, that the time cannot
be far distant when lands In the neighborhood j
will oe very valuable. The census of Mount
Pleasant has lately been taken, and Mr. Kin?
loch, the clerk ot the Town Council, furnishes j
THU HEWS the foll? win g figures: Popula?
tion- white males, 181; white females, 199- [
total Whites, 380. Black malea, 167; black I
females, 202-total blacks, 369. Total popula?
tion, 749. Daring the year there Were twen?
ty-four deaths and the same number of births.
AMUSEMENTS.
Tht Coup m an i To-D?y and To-night.
The Chapman matinee, with the Gold
Demon and the wonderful change business,
promises to be a strikingly attractive affair.
With his .usual kindness Mr. Ford baa Invited
all the orphan children to witness the per?
formance. Go and keep them company. At
night there ls a strong bill.
Kate Putnam.
Thu young aotress, who appears at the
Academy on Monday, must be a very attrac?
tive somebody. Richmond Ie "enthused,"
and the Wilmington Star "gushes" In this wise:
Kft?e Putnam ls In herself a bright little i
picture, In appearance tho embodiment of
childish Innocence, light hear .ed neas and trol- |
MOme glee, with golden, sunny bair, pure
transparent complexion, eyes of bright glanc?
ing splendor, yet with a fervor and feeling in
their mellow blue depths, and with lips that
la their mellifluous coral richness would melt
to.tenderness a sterner than Mars. And her i
voice pierces to the veiy recesses of the soul,
wolle* the sylph-like grace of person, the
essence of ethereal movement, completes and
ratifies the charm. Of ail actresses of her
style, she most resembles Maggie Mitchell,
though in stature somewhat taller, and In
figure more slender. To complete the picture,
the ls as captivating a little witch as we have
ever seen._

THE LOD&B OF 80BB0W.
An Interesting and Impressive Ceremo?
nial.
Tbe high estimation In which Masonry ia
held by the Charleston public was strikingly
manifested last evening, when a dense crowd
of ladies and gentlemen thronged the Grand
Lodge room of the Masonic Temple, tor the
purpose of witnessing the solemn ceremonies
of the Lodge ol Sorrow. Every seat and
available lnoh of standing room was occupied,
aad eaoh avenue of approach to the room waa
closely packed for many feet outside of
the doors. The room was brilliantly illumi?
nated by a large circular burner, sus?
pended from the centre of the celling,
which shot forth a hundred Jeta of flame
from Ita radiant circumference. There were
also three two-light brackets, with cut
glass globes, against the west wall, over the
platform, which stands on that side of the
room. The gas fixtures were the handiwork
of Mr. P. L. Gulllemln, and the manner In
which they Illumined the room waa a atrlklng
testimonial to that gentleman's good Judg?
ment and workmanship. The chairs in the
room were arranged so as to lorm an open
square In the centre of the floor. In the mid?
dle of this square stood the catafalque, a struc
ure composed of two distinct parts. The first
or malu part waa a pyramid of steps about
four feet high. The steps were draped in black
and the top step was covered with velvet of j
the same color. The second part of the cata
falque consisted ot a black canopy,* supported
above the steps by pillars, one at each angle,
and draped In black and white. The canopy
terminated In an urn-ehaped ornament of j
glided material, down the sides of which
drooped a long white fringe. The heads of J
the pillars, which supported the canopy, ter?
minated lu similar ornaments, which were
fringed lu like manner. The curtains of the
canopy were fringed with white, and caught
up lu gracelul folds with white rosettes. The
top ot the canopy waa lined on the Inside
with white. The drapery was arranged
by Hr. W. J. Trim, and' the result waa
highly creditable to him. Beside each of the
pillara stood a small pedestal draped lu black.
Upon each pedestal stood three black candles
burning together In a white candlestick.
Upon the top step of the pyramid stood a mag?
nificent coffin of ebony, richly mounted with
white metal of elaborate workmanship.. Upon
the centre ot the coffin waa a black velvet
cushion, and upon the cushion stood an urn
ot white porcelain. Around the sides of the
! steps upon which the coffin rested were eleven
I small ahleld8 of bright metal, each bearing
lu. black lettera the name of one ot the
deceased Masons In whose memory the
Lodge waa held. At each corner of j
the catafalque sat a Maaon in regalia,
holding a wand In bis hand. Between
the eataialqne and the platform before notloed
stood an altar of white marble; opon the altar
was an open Bible, and upon the open page ?
rested the emblems of Masonry, the 8quare
I and the Compass. Threes pedestals occupying j
! respectively the middle and either end of the j
I platform, were draped In black and bad a nar?
row atrip of white crossing the black on the
aide next the audience. The middle pedestal
bore two black candles burning In white can- j
dlestloks.
The platform waa occupied by Grand Master j
B. S. Bruns, Deputy Grand Master J. B. Ker?
shaw, members of Union Kilwinning Lodge,
and the masters of other Lodges, while the
row ef chairs which surrounded the square
waa devoted to the remaining members of the
Lodge.
At seven o'clock precisely the ceremonies
i were begun by the masters and wardens of {
Union Kilwinning Lodge, In accordance witn
the Masonic ritual. A prayer by the chap?
lain, Bev. P. J. Shand, and a hymn by the j
choir came next. Thea followed an address
by the worshipful master, upon the uncer?
tainty of life and the lesson of the occasion.
Another hymn by the choir, and an appro?
priate passage of Scripture were followed by
an Interval of profound silence, when thetapers
were extinguished and the lights dimmed.
Atter a prayer had been offered by the chap?
lain, the officers of the lodge lett their seats, an d
marched several times around the catafalque,
their footsteps falling with solemn cadence
upon the almost death-like stillness. After
two or three pauses, during which the master
and wardens deposited wreaths and flowers
upon the coffin, the procession drew up In
line belore the altar facing the catafalque.
In this position each member of lt bowed
with the rest three times, repeating, In deep
low tones, "Farewell I farewell ! farewell !"
The officers then returned to their seats, and
after a passage of Scripture had been read by
the chaplain, the lights were raised, the
tapera relit, and the cere monon lea proceeded
In accordance with the programme already
pnbllahed.
