h The Beaufort Tribune. \V. M. FKI3KCII JEtlltor und Proprietor. WEDNESDAY, MARCH 15, 1878. The British bark Alliance arrived at the mill of Robbins Boddlngton & Co. Saturday to load with lumber for England. The thrce-masti-d schooner Hattie Turner arrived nt Waterhouso and Bicker's wharf on Friday with furniture, lime and groceries for George Waterhouse. The ladies of the Baptist church will hold a festival in Lyceum Hall Friday evening, the proceedb to he u#ed in improving the interior of the church. This laudable object will merit the support of nil and the occasion will afford our citiBoua aa opportunity to contribute to a good cause in a very agreeab-e manner. -? The monitor Cutskiil, Coin oander Hen ry Wilson, and her convey tin Alert, Coinander J. D. JTurvin. nrrived Sntur day uiorning and were brought iu by pi lot a ilurray nud Young. Hon. J. K. JJillson, State Superintcn dent of schools, has made the apportionment of the school funds for the year 1870. The whole appropriation iB $250,000, -Beaufort county receives $13,210.40, the school attendance being 5.803 The time tor the pavmcut of taxes has been again extended. The penalty will not now attach until the first of April. Congressman d.nulls has i itroduced bills for the relief "t' Paul Hamilton and t aniline Hamilton his wife, of Ihnu j fort;ot the hereof Mrs 1. .M. Port eons, late of Be mtort, and of Henry MeK<e, or his heirs, of Beaufort, all of which were re f erred to the committee on claims. The race between the firemen of the Brooklyn and Congress camo off last "Wednesday afternoon. The crews started from the loweT buoy and rowed three miles. The Congress crew won by four minutcB'nftcra very exciting contest. The great attraction of this race was the novel oars-fire ehovele-with which the rowers were more familiar than the usual sort. The defeated crew arc determined to have another contest and show tlie Congross boys that they are not invinciable. The work on the sea wall is progressing finely and is as perfect a success, so lhr as ignoring the plumb unci rule is concerned,as it was possible with the means at hand to make it. Some think it looked better on the ground where it nail lain ror twenty years, out tins is sun ? matter of opinion. If the cement lmd set, as we are informed it lind, before being used we may soon see the wall where for so many years it ornamented the Bay. It has been brought to our notice that ?nur agricalturaPCongressman has neglected to furnish corn to some who had reason to expect better treatment. Others again complain of the condition in which the gra;n reaches their hands, they thiuk, and perhaps not unjustly, as this is election year, that the corn might be put through thejgovernmcnt mill before being mailed. Perhaps the custom house axe is all that Mr. Smalls has time to grind, however. H * T he State appropriation of $13.219;0 for school purposes in this county will be apportioned as follows ainoug the j different districts: Bcmifort f??00.Sr> Bluflton 623 68 Coo*awbatcliIa J.021.56 Goethe 850 28 Hilton Hond 704.48 Lnwton 888.50 Peoples 706.85 Pocatallgo 442.00 L Robert 773.50 St. Helena 2.088.22 Sheldon 766.74 fYemassce 702.60 Ladle* Island 672.02. I The amount actually neeived will propably fall short twenty five ?>r thirty per cent on account of the payment of lulls of the Bank of the State. Our inriustrious burglar has been heard from again showing that he is still alive to the necessity of keeping our watchA man out of the dry goods boxes o'nights. This time the one favored with his attentions was Rev. Mr. Jones, pastor of the Baptist church. An entrance was k effcted by forcing open tho shutters on the piazza when the intruder satisfied his wants with a gold watch and chain anc\ a pair of pants. Mr. Jones regrets the loss of the watch and would give a liberal reward for its return, and we doubt not ha would like to pray with his noctural visitor. The steamer Carrie brought a large party of excursionists from Savannah on ? Monday to visit the^flcet. Not being able to go alongesido tbe monitors the officers of tho Congress sent a steam launch to their assistance and all who desired were safely transferred. Once on board the Congiesi, the officers extended every courtesy in showing the appointments of a man-of-war, and when the visitors had become satisfied with their inspections, the decks were cleared, k and by an invitation of the officers * they wero invited to trip tho light funtaslic toe. This >va? a courtesy I ? jwogt!>h?pw?bpttstmbhop?b?tt mw unexpected, and was enjoyed with much zest, as few if any had ever enjoyed the novelty of dancing on board of a manof-war before. Whilst guests on the Congress, the visitors wero extended an invitation to partake of lemonade and other refreshments. The time passed rapidly by, and It was nearly six o'clock when the party bade farewell to their hospitable and courteous hosts, and returned home. The adjournment of the General As?cmbly is delayed by the trial of Judge Montgomery Moses, which is progressing very slowly. The evidence thus lar adduced seems to be amply sufficient to secure liis Conviction of using his judicial position for the purpose of extorting money fVom county officials. Theatrical.-Wednesday evening last a large party of ladies and gentlemen assembled in the dining room of the Sea encore, when be gave "The Two Vagabonds" iu a very lifelike and nft'ecting manner. The guests afterwards indulged in a hop which was kept up till a late hour. ?? ?? The Are engines were dragged all over town yesterday morning in a vain endeavor to find the cause of some one ringing the fire bell. It wus decided afterwards that the alarm was started on account of the burning of some rubbish in she yard of the Catholic clffirch. The new Phoenix made its first appearance on the streets and was bowled ulong in lively style by the younger portion of our community. A little paint has transformed this rejected machine into a very handsome engine and if it is always as prompt as yesterday may yet l?e of service. The Town Council met last Wednesday evening. The committee on accounts reported favorably on the bills of J. P. Boyce, $3. 80; A. Cheney, $4.0W. H. Fisher, $5.40; J. E. Iloyco, $1.50, and the Standard $50.02, all of which were ordered co i>6 paici. a. Dill ot vv. C. Morris in I wa< rejected. Bil's of Win. Itlltjliell f : | $2.*>0 and ('. Harper $6.00 were referred, j A liquor licence was granted to IWr & Coben. Warden Boyee gave r.o'ice ol" ordinance to amend the market oidinancc j which passed its firs; reading. Council passed n resolution to remove tho engine bouse now occupied by the Phoenix company whenever Mr. Harms or Mr. Pollitzer who own the land on which it is built shall ask for its removal. Boss Shepherd's Port Royal property lies about twelve miles from *ho town, and it has been di -covered, since hepherd ir.ade his invest oe.it, that th water thereabout is fresher and better {for the fleet than the waters of Port Royal proper. I be next move will be to order the fleet down to Shepherdtown or whatever it is called. The proper committee can put this and that together. -News and Courier. FOR SAI^i:.

A stage was erected in the hall, the scenery was partly owned by the gentlemen amateurs and partly borrowed from the Beaufort Lyceum and was sufficient to make a Very creditable appearance.
