JST* There will be quite a chance at to early day for speculators in damaged cotton, as near two thousand bales will be offered in Charleston aud near six thousand at Port Royal. The body of an unknown colored man was found in Coosawhatchie swamp on the 7th inst. The coroners jury rendered a verdict that the deceased froze to death. Saturday lasf, we arc told, was J Russia's New Year and the officers and men irom the Bogatar were in town in \ laage numbers and celebrated the event as is customary with ordinary mortals. I ^ The Iuteadaut had up before him on Monday five drunks who contributed sir dollars to the town treasury besides the costs. County Auditor Laugley has removed, temporarily, his books to the Town Hail for the convenience of himself and our eitiaens. His deputy still 1 keeps the office open in the Court i House. The books, records, and surveys j of the Direct tax Commissioners which were Wik?n?bo Washington after ythe recent ?aV, arc to be returned and may ^ be aeea aad examined in the office ol' Mr. J. M.

The first act of the new board 1 of County Commissioners is one of ie form? backwards.

JS?* On Tuesday morning.of last week while Captain Hagen of the Russian haik I i 1 Muisto in Bull river, was going down the 1 river in a boat in company with a sailor 1 from his vessel the boat suddenly cap( sized and swauiped# and the sailor 1 drowned. The captain was picked up by a boat from the French bark Massillia. The body of the sailor had not been recovered at last# accounts. i > > Ben Simmons has been appointed & trial justice for Biuffton. He has his commission but has not qualified be. ^^fore the clerk of court as^ provided by ^ law. Macon B. Allen has also been apI pointed a trial justice for Beaufort. Such appointments as these make no friends for Chamberlain?except the appointees. t&F In the United States Court in W Charleston on Tuesdoy last in the case of I Peter Toglio, master of the steamer Pilot I Boy, a warrant of arrest was issue 1 to I seize the cargo, and the United States D deputy marshal was ordered at once to ? stop the shipment of the cargo to New 1 York. | W Turner Banks charged with the \ robbery of the stores of W. C. Bellows and Mr. Pollitzer, was arrested last Saturday in Savannah by deputy sheriff Mohan and brought here and placed in jail. On Tuesday last Banks was brought before trial justice Carleton and strong evi" dence being produced to |>rove his guilt he was committed for trial at the February term of Court As a reward of one hundred dollars was offered by the town for the arrest of the robbers of the store of Mr. Bellows, Mick feels sure of pocketing .the money. At the meeting of the County Commissioner* last Monday Mr. Holmes presented his balance sheets for settlement of his accounts as County treasurer j for fiscal year 1875, from which we get' ^? the following figures : The amount col-1 lected on account of the three mill past indebtedness tax was $7,663.85. and the' -balance on hand $384.24. There was col- J jected on account of liquor licenses $2.-1 081.80, with a balance on hand of $108.- i 20. 1 ho one mill deficiency tax pro-: duced $3.341.37, which fund bad beeu j overdrawn to the amount of $11.7J.

As the bid was received w a'ter the time designated in the adver tiseme.it for the reception of proposals h the boa'd decided that they could not en* b tertain it. A bid was also opened from 1 Mr. W.

' 1 I 3 Port Royal was enlivened with a free j fight last Tuesday. The marshal was i ^ unable to arrest the bcligerents when fortunately for the sake of peace the i Rev. Joe happened aloug and in a fi w s minutes the crowd were sure from the i i sulphurous smell that lightning had ! : struck somewhere in the vicinity. The Russians made the town lively for 1 several days, sixty-eight of them having been on shore three days and not a so- ' ber o-.e in the crowd. It was remarked that i Port Royal rum made the marines crazv 1 but they never once showed a disposi-1 tion to fight. One corner grocery is i said to have taken in a keg full of gold. J They think that the excess of shade ! 1 trees at Savannah, keeping off the sun's . rays, was one cause of the yellow fever scourge last summer. -? r-?? A Missouri pig lately rooted up two thousand dollars in gold which was bur i ied by its owner durincr the war.

The sale would have occurred ast month hut the order to sell the prop rty in Georgia could not be had from the Juiied States courts in Savannah before ast week, on account of the yellow fever eing there at the time ol the last sessiou f the court. Sleeping cars were put on the Port {oval Railroad last week running through i> and from Savannah and Augusta on he night trains, and will prove a great onvertiencerto the business men of those ities at whose special request the cars ?ere placed on the line. The conductors now mn a round trip rithou; a stop, being on the road about 4 hours, and then laying off during the cxt 24,hours.
