The Italian Opera Troupe. The announeeraent of the coining of tho I’arodi Italian Opera Troupe, gives prom | ise of an extraordinary musical festival for throe evenings next week. Those who desiro to secure reserved scats are informed that the sale will commence this morning at the Music Store of \V. I!. Carter, where a diagram of tho seats may bo seen. In lieu of auy comments of our’s we append the following notice of one of the entertainments given by the Troupe in Charleston, taken from the Courier of thc2‘Jth ult. : Italian Opera.—Donizetti’s grand and brilliant Opera, “IlPoliuto,” was pro duced last evening by the I’arodi Troupe (for the first time in Charleston,) with the greatest possible effect. Tho production was n perfect success. The theatre was crowded, and never was there oriy audi ence better pleased or more delighted.— Somo portions of the Opera were posi lively grand. Long shall we remember this superb operatic performance. Nev er have we had an Opera given with such magnificence as was on last evening.— Alaimo, Sbriglia, Onone and liarili sus tained their very difficult roles with the greatest artistic excellence. Signor Angelo Torriani, the Conduc tor, deserves great credit for his skill in bringing this exceedingly difficult Opera out in such a brilliant manner. He, wc may safely say, is one of the most artistic and talented Conductors now in the coun try, and the success of “II I’oliuto,” and other Operns produced by this Troupe, is entirely owing to the superior judgment of this celebrated and talented Conductor. To-night we shall have Bellini’s grand tragic Opera, “ Norma,” when Signora Teresa l’arodi will appear. It is unne cessary to say anything of l’arodi to those who listened to her, on Friday evening last,, in her thrilling personation of “Lu crczia Borgia.” Those who did not, should not loose this grand opportunity to-night. Mi*B Hattie Brown, the young American artiste, Hbriglia, and the en tire Troupe, will will also appear. We sincerely hope that this talented Troupe will lie induced to remain with us a few days longer than was announced at, their first coming. Never have we hud Opera given in such style ami magnifi cence before in Charleston. Our New York Correspondence. New Yohk, March 17, 18ti0. 1 see by the London papers that Liebig, Llic great German chemist, has written to Mecbi, the famous Knglish farmer, n most startling letter on the production of corn —a subject as interesting to American farmers and planters as to Knglishmen, which is my reason for dwelling on it nt some length. The learned Gorman shows that the corn-producing power of tho land of the globe is becoming rapidly ex hausted, and that, ba t it not been for the discovory of guauo, the decline would have been much more marked than it is. Barn-yard manure, says Liebig, is insuffi cient for the purpose of restoring to the earth the elements which are withdrawn frurn it in successive harvests. They leave every year a deficiency, which must in the course of time, result, in barrenness. Guauo supplies the need; hut, at (ho present rate of consumption, which is rapidly increasing, it will not last, ac cording to Liebig,more than thirty yeurs at the utmost. A lute report by C. S. Marshall, Ksq., l’rcsident of the Ameri can Guano Company of this city, fully corroborates the statement of the German savant of the high and increasing rate of the consumption of guano. According to Mr. Marshall, the demand for American guano, as the nrticlc supplied by this company is sometimes called, to distin guish it from Peruvian guauo, is increas ing rapidly from season to season; and orders from farmers and planters pour in so rapidly from all quarters of the Union, that the company havo found it necessary to add several ships to their already large fleet. To counteract tho decline in the producing power of the lands now under cultivation all over the civilized globe, Liebig recommends diminishing the popu lation of the older countries by emigre lion en matte to virgin soils, and a re course to tho sewerage of cities and towns by those who stay behind, for enriching the quality of their impoverished fields If I mistake nut, Louis Napoleon has al ready commenced the work of fertilizing tho country surrounding Paris with the sewerage of that capital, instead of al lowing it to run to waste in (ho Seine, causing that river to stink liko the Thames and ultimately to fill up. If some new fertilizer he not discovered within twen ty-live years, other cities will have to follow tho example of Paris, au<l return to the soil an equivalent for the food which they take from it. Procession of Soils of Nulla. This mysterious order, says the Augus ta Chronicle, paraded our streets on Tues day night, dressed in long white robes, wearing hideous masks, and bearing torches. They were preceded by the Augustn liras. Hand, playing dirges suit ed to the grave nature of the proceedings A strong delegation of “sovereigns,” led by curiosity, followed the procession, which finally brought up on the middle of the bridge, and tho grand finale was then performed, by tumbling a coffin and some other funeral paraphernalia into the river, lilue lights shed a ghastly glare on the ilramalit /'ertotvi, including the spectators, the latter of which set up a feeble shout at the close. This impos ing ceremony took place very properly about midnight—“the witching time us night, when church yards yawn,” &c. Before cock crowing, however, these ghastly chaps bud vanished from the scene, and “order reigned” in llridge llow. LVho ie the “G. B. J. A. J” Augusts nml Naren Railroad. The citizens of Maeon held a meeting in that city the night of the ”lst, and uuituiuiously adopted resolutions ratify ing the action ofthe City Council, on the loth inst., and authorising the Mayor to subscribe (50,000 to the capital stock of the Hailroud to Augusta, or other point that may be fixed upon. The Telegraph publishes the proceedings of ths meeting By n act of the Legislature, Macon i* prohibited from subscribing more than $”50,000 to any enterprise, lleving al ready rubscribed $200,000 to the Hruns w ick Hoad, ehe could not subscribe more than SSO,(HH> to the Itoad to Augusta Snuthsrn Trade. The trade at Charleston aud New Or leans, we are told, is nearly fifty per cent, larger than usual this spring, which fact is owing to tho abstraction of so much trade Iroin th* small jobbers nn I dealer* in N \ork, Philadelphia and Poston N. Lork now supplies Charleston and New Orleans direct with goods for many inte rior (owus and cities, which were former ly taken from this and other ol the large importing and manufacturing cities. Smaller jobbers have felt to seme extent here this abstraction from their ii-uat huiiness, while the effect has been mere marked and risible in Boston and Phila delphia. Our ffouthctn strainers go loaded with goods from wholesale dealers for the Urge towns and seaports, in order to supply i| lt . smaller markets of which Northern cities hare been accustomed to receive the benefit —y.

Breadstuff* at Liverpool were dull Provisions were firm, and some circulars report a quiet market, and others con siderable excitement bordering on a panic The attention ofthe public was almost 1 exclusively directed to the complications on the continent. The London stock market was de pressed, and the demand was slack. .Shares were active and J to .] lower. Arrived at Liverpool the ships Advance from Mobile and Americano from New Orleans, and the 0.

Washington, March 21.— 1n the Sen ate to-day the Fcmalo Emigrant Protec tion bill was passed; another bill was passed to reduce the expcnces of public printing. A resolution was adopted call ing for information in regard to the in structions given to the Gulf squadron, which have produced the recent action near Vera Cruz. In the House, a bill was introduced, which was laid over, calling for informa tion about the Gulf squadron, and simi lar in its words to that introduced in the Senate. More Mexican News. New Orleans, March 21.—We have Mexican mails to the 11th iust. Commo dore Jarvis on the Ist, proposed if Juarez would place the Indiauola and Wave at his disposal lie would intercept Marin’s expedition—afterwards he determined to pursue a strictly neutral course, unless he was forced to do other wise. An intercepted letter to Miramon says the Capital was seriously threatened by tie Liberals, and asks the assistance of two Spanish men-of-wur al Sacrificios, seen several nights taking war materials ashore for Miramon. Two flags of truce to the French and British Consuls from Miramon, were re i fused entrance into the city. The prisoners of tho steamer Marquez are to bo brought before the Federal Court on Thursday. Ku'llnmiil nt YYnglllngtoil. Washington, March 21. Much excite ment exists here on tho subject of the re cent affairs in the Gulf. The Navy de partment is busy. It is understood that tho administration sustains the Gulf squadron. ■+. Arrival of the Overland Mnil. St. Louis, March 18.—Tho following dispatch, bringing one day’s later news, was received here by the Overland mail last night. San Francisco, Feb. 25.—1 t. E. Brew ster, a merchant of San Francisco, just returned from tho Washoe mines, in Car son Y’alley, brings specimens of silver ore which assay over thirty thousand dollars per ton. The Democratic primary elections have been held in 17 counties. The delegates to the State Convention, so far as heard from, standi 17 Latham and 44 Gwin and Weller men, indicating that the Latham influence will secure the delegates to the Charleston Convention. The Latham dele gates from San Francisco nro in favor of sending Austin E. Smith to Charleston. He is a son of Hon. YVm. Smith, of Va., and is favorable to Dickinsen. of New Y'ork, for the Presidency. Revolving Bracelet;. A New York leltter describes a price of jewelry- which is destined to make a sen sation among the “fetnule persuasion.” It is a strap bracelet of fine link chain, of a quaint Venetian pattern. Tho centre, set in a circular head, is a cluster of di amonds, having an outside waving edge f black enamel, divided into twelve com partments, each nestling a dazzling brill iant. Iletweeu the edge and the central glory is a vine of tine gold, in, what sail ors term, “round turns,” each turn em bracing one of this cluster of diamonds, and from this vine buds of fine diamond burst into light. But in the centre of all aro two wheels, set in black enamel ground, eacli having eight arms, and each arm twelve diamonds. These wheels turn on a common axle, the hub being the largest diamond of all, and by an ingen ious piece of machinery which is wound up with a key, these wheels are made to revolve in opposite directions for two hours. Imagine the effect of this pyro technic display in a brilliantly lighted sa loon, with a fair plump arm beneath it, if you can! IVhnt admiration it would command from the men; wlmt envyings aud heart-burning it would excite in tho women. Tiagnly at Decatur, Ala.--A Negro Mmaters Ills Young Raster. \Ye learn from a gentleman who arrived on tho evening train yesterday, that a diabolical murder was committed in De catur, Ala., a few days since. A young lad, sixteen years of age, the sou of a widow lady named Morris, threatened to have punisheil a negro man belonging to his mother, when the negro picked up a stone and struck Ids young master on tho head, killing him, it is supposed, instaully. After committing the deed, tho negro threw tho body into nn old well. The young man was missed, search was insti tuted, and traces of blood were found near the well, which led to the recovery of the body. Tho negro was arrested, and is in the hands of the law. — Memphis Avalanche, KWi. ►- ♦ A limit HI an Ailjuilg.il to PayfilllNN for It*.
