"We regret to be obliged to record a most disgraceful scene of turbulence, which occurred on Saturday afternoon. Mr. Cole man, a young man from tho country, was grossly assailed with most abusive epithets by a colored man (Chnr les Green),being the socond offence, from thp sanip'im^y, ,and unable, to defend lrjmkeklVotbercthail with a weapon, ris he Was A ?cripple/" Mr. Colema? fired upon ?Vecty inftrctitig a wound in the leg of tho I jflT 911 'ii noil ith%i in latter.'.A c?lored worpnri among the crowdj^bin,Q<! in the fray, and used brick bats,and ;Ot)>er, ?pisslep, (reply, while the savage* mass clamored "Kill him, Kill hiln, &e."

This added to the fury of the negroes, and they would have immolated the cornered man, except that ho held Ida knife too defiantly. Mr. Col maul Mr. D. F.

Forttmately a few gentlemen wero present, whtf jumped iqL *tod rescued Mr. duller. In the throng wero several I colored men, who kept the passions of. these deluded people excited, and the vjhite citizens fearing a* rescue of Mr Goleman from the authorities stood by to preserve him. from violence. .

But as in all these disturbnn ? ? , i ? i .' * ?'

Uur local authorities must interfere in the in cipiency of these disturbances, or a gen eral scrimmage will be the result. "He that is without sin?let him first cast a stone," wus a remark timely and i appropriate to a crowd whose phariseeism efer saw motes in.the eyes/of others, and beheld not the beam which blinded their own. It was a sermon of Charity, which fell like a bolt in tho ranks of dissenter?? aud scattered them. It was the lurid i flash of conviction that stripped their souls of i disguise, and revealed a more hideous deformity, than that, covered by the ings of shame of the friendless Mag dalen. How often do we hear of the i3cech able disgrace of some Tue.kless in ebriate, whoso worst offence is that lie is tempted and fells, and in that fall de bases only self, and totters to a heart broken wife the victim of physical weak ness. While the finished villain, revel ing in his ill-gottoh gain, commands the smiles and fawning of sycophants, whose best endorsement is, that they lack that Bclfreapcct which will pity, the frailty of 1 an erring brother; and eon tern theshame lcssness of a pi dctised importer; A prince in buckram may learn the holloWAties of | friendship! cs he sees' the outer garb' tbe measuring of tbe inner man. ? rogue iu finery may command the adulation of | .psiOJDO friends, as he surrounds his boaid with truckling man servers, Tho crowd who applauded the carricature of ?jFrederick tho* great'" ' were truer* sub jects lor their open denunciation of what the) esteemed tyranny, thau the bab bling mass who raised Charles to power, only to spurn his lifeless trunk at the foot of the scaffold. The one was a mis appreciation of duty, tho other was pay ing court to power. The courtezans ofJ Oakes Ames at the banquet given to a swindler, are no more objects of pitiuble detestation, than those who can consent, for policy in public to bear the v/ejl turned periods of one worse than Ames, a renegade and traitor. Both are equally degraded with tho degenerate mass, who see no Virtue in repelling Vice. Com mon decency would exclude the inebriate frdin society \y-hilc boastful Honor lends countenance to a scoundrel. Such is tho sophistry that would teach us policy.

In defiance of Statute Lotteries flour ish, but under the mildest and rm st be nevolent sounding titles. We have one most laudable, and charitable institution for the benefit of the "Free School fund, mid another f< r the sole good, and well fare of the "State Orphan Asylum"? veritable wolves in lambs clothing; but fortunately the skin is "too thin." The last novelty in this line has the merit' however of encouraging Art. One of our most spacious scores has been turned Into^k temporary picture gallery, anO chromos of nil kinds and lizes, line the walls. The gambling is conducted in this wise : a scaled envelope is purchased for 50 cents, containing a ticket; or tickets .which entitle the buyer cither to a pic tuie (wlifah is really worth possessing) or else to some gorgeous article of jewelry, (which is worth nothing) it is apparent, that lor every prize or picture drawn, there are several pieces of Jewelry?and also that the gold and silver ware is not warranted". As soon as the performance commences, Act the first is pretty sure to result in some one drawing a prize? the crowd of course immediately become wild, and recklessly invest in blnnks. It was suggested as we watched the pro ceedings, that the parties who were for tunate might have some distant connec tion with the establishment, but this slan derous observation proceeded from one to whom the fates were unpropitious. One patent Itinerant glass cutter, (of | whom remarks wero made in a lormcr let ter) bus appeared in a new lig it, he now sells "potflto peelers" a peculiar knife which separates the skifi from the Vegctu4 ble, us rapidly, and neatly, as if done by machinery. Our Charleston "Josh Bil lings" begs to remark, that, given a good potato, ho can accomplish the same re suits as rapidly, and with much more satisfaction to himself. The latest in the way of Amusements, is a wonderful personage, ono "Chriski," who possesses a combination of talents, refreshing to hear of in these degenerate days", being an excellent juggler, and an admirable ventriloquist. As an extra inducement to the public to call and judge of his powers, a large collection of] presents are given away nightly, ranging from $25 in greenbacks, to a trifling tuy, the single men in variably receiving such useful and appropriate articles, as cra dles, and juvenile playthirgs, and the tbeaudieuce enjoying this kind of jokes more than tho exhibition itself, while the bashful recipients always appear to be uncertain whether to "go for the door" "Or join ifi tiie laugh against themselves; ftiprocess, calculated to lend to the coun tenance of a page startling resemblance ?;<> that of an nss.

The Committee Report on Cotton, Rice,'Lumber, and Naval Stores, the J >bbhig Trade, Real Fstato and Building operations and many oilier mat ters of vital importance to our commun ity. We find that the receipts of cotton have increased from 111,714 bale's in 1865 to 282,0-86 in 1872. The. receij s of rice have increased in like proportion. ,Th.i lumber business also shows a steady improvement. The jobbing trade is re i ported to be in a very flourishing condi tion. Under the head of Land and Wa ter Connections of Char Jo-ton, we find 1 that there are now running between [^?inrleBtOn and New York, eight fine ^tenihors, capable of carrying 50,000 balb.4 per week. To Baltimore, there are three steamers. To Philadelphia, two steam ers aud to Boston, two steamers, besides the various lines of steamboats, to differ cut points of our .own, as well as the I'coast of neighboring States. On the Marl Bedsand?Phosphate RocksofSouth Carolina there in a long and intensting article worthy of the subject, concerning which it is penned. The pamphlet is illustrated throughout by statistical ta bles, displaying' the greatest care and atS curacy in their preparation, uhdef lll?' title "Miscellnncous" are found accounts of the proposed water-works, the street railways; and Other topics of interest, the whole closing with a list of the number of persons engaged in the different trades and professions. Wo have given, necessarily, a very brief and rou h online of this compila tion ; it remains but to add, that it reflects the greatest possible credit on the com mittee, Messrs. Frost, Dawson, and Pink" ney, and is a labor deeerving the heart felt thanks of the entire State, being ah exponent of our growth and prosperity, and an unanswerable argument to those "chronic croakers," who' would lead us to believe that our country is a "desert'* nhd our business a "farce."
