Dr. Philip BchafT, President of the American Bible Revision Committee, will dtliver an address In the Independent Pres byterian Church this (Friday) evening at 8 o’clock on the subject of “Bible Revision.” In connection with the address an oppoitn- nity will be given to present -• v questions appertaining to the general s« - tect of “BU ble Revision.” The object is simply to spread Information. There is to be no col lection taken up. The public are invited to attend. The American Bible Revision Com mittee has completed the revision of the. English version i>r the New Testament, and transmitted the resuit of their labors to England. The British Committee will meet in November for flnnl action, and the uni versity presses of Oxford and Cambridge arc.expec:ed to issue the revised New Tes tament in February, 1681. Tbe Old Testa ment will be published two or three years after. The American revisers have given their time and labor for eight years without compensation. The necessary expenses have been provided for by voluntary sub scriptions. Remnlu* to be Sent On. Mention was made in yesterday’s News that a telegram was uceived from tbe Ma sonic fraternity of Philadelphia, making in quiries In reference to the death of John Beckboff in this city. Another telegram was received from fcdward P- Kolpc, Mas ter of Lodge No. 246, of Philadelphia, and not from the Grand Lodge, by 8olc= moo’s Lodge No. 1, of this city, in regard to the matter. In accordance with tbe reques's made the remains will be disinterred and prepared for ship ment to Philadelphia by the steamship Juniata which leaves op Saturday. The officers of Solomon's Lodge are frlteojlpg to the matter, and will obtain the property be longing to the deceased, which was turned over at the inquest to the CoroDer, and send to the Philadelphia Lodge to be held by them subject tt*« order of the family of u — v.nr.. i <1 ; r-.A ii j I n '' u 11 ri i* A Pleasant and SucceasJul Enter tainment. The dramatic entertainment, coucect and hop given at Mieonic Temple last evening by the Youths.’ Historical Society, for the benefit if their library, was a very grati fylng 6iccess. The hall was well filled, and never was an audience more thorough ly plea-cd. The entertainment opened with au o-erture by Solomon’s orchestra, given In excellent style. This was followed by a song gi^en tv Mr. J. A. (iraef, and a cornet solo by Mr. Munren, Jr. Tbe laugh able skcieb, "He would be an Actor,” was then introduced. Mr. I. Martin appear ing ks Mr. Cartwright, and Mr. H. G. Appel as Thomas Elwin Keene Booth. The -kett h was given with great spirit, bon the young gentlemen acquitting themsclTea very creditably. An overture was then x!aytd by the orchestra, after which Mr. Xartfn recited most ad mirably “The Rum Maniac,” which elicited enthusiastic applaua*. This was followed by a duet ou the z'tfaem by Messrs. Ruckert and Fox, which allotted great pleasure to the appreciative bous*. The entertainment closed with a fa're entitled M A Close Shave,” with the following cast: Crnsiy, a Man of Means, r» nf-rally <*ou Hidered a Mean Man M. Marcus. Tonaor. a Barber M. R. Cohen.

The farce was p«^*entedw1th tlje ability of professionals, the several:haraciera being capitally sustained, but particularly worthy of mention was “Simper,” ai "Exquisite,” by Mr. Ilaas, which qouIU scarcely have been better represented. The* piece was received with cordial applause and was a happv finale to au excellent ent*tal«tneiit. The programme was slight!* changed owing to una. sidable circumstartes. The Douglass Brothers, who were d<wn for a duet—violin and piano—were peypnted from beiDg present bv severe in4I“jpsiti<An. and Mr. Frank K.

We learu that at the next meeting of Council an in-cresting communication in reference to tbe disposition of the goats nannies cud billies of this city, a tribe that has been the cause of mupb local legWa- , tt ,ni i,A nrffeanted fil r comJderafiqn and will undoubtedly occasion slon. The communlc.jMn, < ■*"'A?“e s.«nn.b Council I. asked ItX be snticipa’v- Goat*?” most ecj »yable and artistic _ ance of a musical combination which has possibly bo equal, and certainly no superior, in the Lulled States, with the thermometer inside the balldlng almost at frerziog point, while tbe perfoimers, with their fingers benumbed with cold, could not reasonably be expected to exhibit such delicate touch and execution as is their wont, and which has won them so uni versal and well deserved reputation. Nevertheless, despite all drawbacks, the entertainment was delightful, and suffi ciently attractive to iuduce those present to prefer to endure the cold rather than be de prived of lt« enjoyment. Tbe opening number—“Quintette In B- Flat” t MendeLshon)— proved to the audi ence me rich treat that was in store for them. This number was truly elegant, both as to tempo and artistic rendition. Partlcu- lariy noticeable was the smooth playiog of the first violinist, whose distinct notes and admirable conception was so plainly dis cernible. Owing to the sickness of Miss Nellini, tbe “Scena and Aria from Semiramide” was omitted ; but a floe substitute was furnished instead by Mrs. Clara Johnson, of our city, who sang an aria from "Robert le Diable,” which, beyond question, was the finest and most artistic piece given by this lady since her aJ vent in our city. Truly, Mrs. Johnson deserves commendation end praise for her happy selection and thorough rendition of this beautiful production of Myerbeer. The fantasie, for flute, was delightfully given by Mr. Scbade, and the clear, sweet tones of bis instrument will be long remem bered by bis hearers. The fantasie for violin, from “Othello,’ was superb. Mme. Ur so is truly an artist of extraordinary merit, and we can but add to the praise which has been so deservedly accorded her whet ever she has been heard. The clear, broad and magnificent tones of her instrument were wonderful, and the delicacy and richness of the notes as they reached her listeners deserved the hearty and prolonged applause which greeted her rendition of this number. Toe quartette, “The Miller’s Frett Daughter,” was admirable. We have 6ei dom heard a prettier selection, and the cello” part in this piece was simply de lightful. The violincello solo was another beautiful gem, and the tones produced by- Mr. tiiece wt-re tbe richest we have heard from the “cello” In this city, but we are sorry that this geutlem&n did not treat to a fine andante, which would hav given us an opportunity of enjoying more thoroughly the beautiful notes of this instrument, whose thorough control by Mr. Giese gave us an idea of what a great treat a movement of this kind would have been to his audience. The romanza for the clarinetfe was given in fine style bv Mr. Ryan, and delighted were all to hear this gentleman, whose placing last season elicited the warmest praise of our musical circles. In her second number Madame Urso held the r.u Hence spell bound, and her lovely performance of the Thc-ma and variations on the *‘G” string alone was grand. We have never heard such pure harmonics, and the magnificent tones of her violin were again brought forward with a feeling and effect that could not be surpassed. Mrs. Johnson gave as her second number The Maid of Dundee,” which wm sweetly and pleasantly given or d thoroughly eppre dated. The concert dosed with “The 8wedish Weddii g March,” by Sodermanu, which was substituted for Beethoven’s march from the “Ruir.s of Athens.” The Swedish march has always been a favorite here, and this gem po delightfully played wag truly acceptable. In conclusion, we may say that tbe Men delssohns will always receive a hearty wel come from Savamiah audiences whenever they visit us, and we ehali be pleased to greet them. The members of Palestine Commandery No. 7, Knights Templar, returned home yesterday afternoou from Charleston. The Co mm an deny left thla city last Tuesday afternoon to attend the centennial of South Carolina Coramandery No. 1, of Charleston, the oldest organization of Knights Tem plar in tbe Uaited States. The trip was a very pleasant one, notwithstanding the train was delayed and it was 12 o’clock before the^hottl was reached.

Several Sir Knights, who were sitting iu adjacent seats singing, startled by the crash,stopped short, like "My Grandfather’s Clock,” “never to go again,” at least for a time. With this ex ception nothing marred tbe pleasures of the outward trip. At tbe Charleston Hotel, which was head quarter} for the occasion, ample accommo dations were provided. When our kind hosts, whose committee was headed by Sir Knight William M. Bird, an energetic Charlestonian, well known in Savannah, found in the morning that we had stolen a a march, 60 to speak, and come the pre~ vious night, they were greatly disappointed, v ut their welcome was Done the lees hearty and hospitable, and their visitors having had a good night’s rc6t in their comfortable hostelry, were much better prepared to withstand the onset. Pleasant as were the surroundings inside the hotel, the weather outside wae just the reverse, a cold rain coming down all ihe morciag, auguring most unlavcr ably for the parade in the afternoon. Or ders, however, were Issued for the Com- maederies to form at two o’clock, and promptly at that hour South Carolina Com- mandery No. 1, Georgia Commandcry No. 1, of Augusta, Palestine Comtnandery No. 7. of Savannah, and a number of visi'lng Sir Kulghts from other Commanderier, formed In line in front of the Charleston Hotel, under the command of Sir Knight Thomas 8 Wayae, Ac'ing Eminent Com mander of Palestine Coramandery, Past Grand Commander W. JTTollarJ, of Au gusta, who waa to have been in command, not arriving until after the parade, having been detained by an accident on the South Carolina Railroad. Tbe Uuiiarian Church had been kindly placed at the disposal of the Sir Knights, and, after marching through Meeting, Ktug and Queen street-, they repaired to this edifice, and beneath its arched roof per formed the public devotional exercises of the order. This edifies Is most beautiful In deslgu; being of pure gothic architecture inside, with illuminated stained windows, through wbich the light found i»» way tinged with many colors. The Sir Knights in uniform, and the pealing organ and voices of the quartette which accompanied Pales-tiue Comtnandery—Professor C. S. Mallette, Sir Knight P. II. Ward, Mrs. Clara Johnson, and Mrs. P. H. Ward—made the scene grand and Impressive. It only re quired the presence of Sir Knight, Rev. Chas. H. Strong, who was expected to be present at his post as Chaplain, but who w»6 unable to attend owtug to presclog ministerial duties, to have rendered the ocesf-iou in all respects la keeping with the surroundlugs. As it was, however, the liturgy was read by Past Eminent Com mander J. L. Honour, of Charleston, the oldest Knight TempUr In our sieter city. After the services, the line was re-formed aud marched through the principal streets, Palestine Commandery, under the command of Sir Knight Thornas Ballantvnc, going through the tevc-ral evolutions of the Tem plar drill, which were executed In very credi table style, the exercise kcepiog the S’r Kn'.guts warm, as the weather bad rapidly grown cold. Arriving at the Charleston Hotel, the parade was dismissed, notice be ing given that the banquet would take place at 5 p. tu. Promptly at that hour the line was re-form ed in the corridors, and the Commanderies were marched to tfce djnjng room oi the ho tel, where wa6 spread a feast worthy of the palmy days of the Knights of old, and prob ably far more luxurious than those famed warriors ever 6at down to. Eminent Com mander 8ir Knight Jenoison, of South Caro lina CommaDdery, called the Sir Knights to attention, and the Christian prayer waa of fered by Sir Knight p.illard, In which all present joined. To give a dc. c cription of tbe feast would be an impossibility, but the uuauimous verdict of those who have at tended many similar occasions is that it sur passed the best. After tbe cloth was re moved Sir Kniglit Jennison announced the regular toasts, as follows: 1. “The day we celebrat;. ccmieciated by the associations of a century.” This was responded to by Sir fVilmot G. Dt? Saussure, who gave an interesting out line of the history of Templarism ip South Carolina. 4 “TheGrand Encampment of the United 8:ates of America, the head of Masonic Knighthood within its limits, its wise and courteous administration of law has ea'ned for it the respect and affection of its subor dinates.” This wa» fespquued io by bir Henry Bulat, on6 of the moat gifted speakers of *he Pal metto fe’ate. He said that by request and in behalf of the Grand Master of the Grand Eccamrmeut of the United States he re turned his official tharks for the ee» tlinent, and alluding to tbe progress of Temrlar Masonry, he said that. cunplaye at Chicago hua uotqnlybcocated Masonry, but avyaketiecJ a feeling of brotherly love which would be felt in oatiop*! atfali., ai.d In every State iu the i nlon and by ell claraea. Men who meet as those who assembled at the last grand conclave will not s»c the Interests of each other sacrificed by unjust or oppressive acts. The eloquent response, which w8*of some length, greeted with £re»t applause. 3. “Our Visiting M r Knights—We extend to them a cordial welcome and fraternal acknowledgments for tire*? courteous union “■‘.'win to commemorate the day we cele brate.” K-epopsps were W*dz by Sir Oils H. Lytii.b, of .vuguata, and by Sir Thomas S. Wayne, of Savannah. The latter, who bad already wen high encomiums for the fine manner in which be marched tbe Com- manderiea during the afteruooD, made a short, but able speech, in which he ex pressed tue good will of visiting Sir Rnlght* towards their (Jharleaton fraters, closing with a Sisotiment expressing a hope for tbe increased prosperity of the oldest Com- mandery In the L'nlon 4 “The city cf Charleston—The well digested plans organized by its Mayor and Aldermen for Its present Improvement give promise of a bright future.” Responded to by Qeorge p. Bryan, Keq , Corporation Attorney, Tn au appropriate manner, in which he alluded to matters of local interest. a “Templar Masonry—Tbe Masonic re presentative of the *J*oor jailer. Soldier* of Christ 1 -it* tenets are, through ihe humility of the sepulchre, salvation iu a risen Lord.” Sir Augustine T. Smylhe, State Senator from Charleston district, responded. This gentleman spoke for twenty minutes on the tenets of the order, and was listened to with marked attention, and closed with a toast wbich called up Past Grapd Coquuauder pollard, oi Georgia, wno made a few pleas ant remark's. Sir A. Pratt Adams, of Savannah, in response to repeated calls, made one of his usual eloquent speeches. Calls were also made for several other Sir Knights, but without avail. At 9 o’clock the hanquet waa closed with “Auld Lang Syne,” in which all joined with as much zest as though thf v had pome fye&ti ffouj the “Jand o’ cakes.” The thermometer had meanwhile been quietly getting down to zero, and when tbe banquet was oyer, it was so cold that but few of the visitors ventured out, the majority seeking tbelr beds early, as it was onDognped that the hour of rising fof thp Savaunah tonight* whoVanted to get off by tne early train was 5 o’clock. That hour found all strirring, and an early breakfast havlr^- been dispatched, the party took tbo ’buses for the depot. Tbe train started twenty minutes behind time, and on tbe run had to coax steam with green pine wood, and tackle frozen water tacks, etc. The “pilgrim warriors,” surviving these Inconveniences, and having done full penance, found themselves again” at 4 p. m. will net qo to_ forget tbe ladles who THE FLEECY STAPLE.

The weather telegrams of Friday for the week ending on that day report a general Improved condition, wbich is not apparent. In Texas, Galveston had hard rain on four days.

In Augusta there were light rains on the first five days of the week. rROSPKCTS. Ellison Jk Co.’* Liverpool circular, of De cember 8, has this to say : "So far as demand is concerned, the ac counts from all quarters point, to a contin ued large consumption. English spinners and manufacturers bold no stocks of mo ment of cither yams or goods, while they are for the most part largely ueder contract for forward delivery. The advices from the Continent are also of a hopeful tenor; dee. dedly more so than they were a 6hort time back. "With rejpect toawpp/y.the interest of the public is still centered in tbe probable out turn of the American crop, respecting which there is quite a hot controversy going on. Tbe favorite estimate ranges between 5,700,000 and 6,000,000 bales, but there are some authorities who look for over 6,000,- 000. and others who expect les6 than 5,700,- 000 bales. At the moment there la no room for dogmatism on thu point, and until towards the close of the present month all estimates must be more leas guess work. From India it is expected that the *upp!y will he about tho same as that received last season. From Eaypt there will be a considerable decrease. Last season the exports reached about 460,- OOU bales of about 630 pounds: this season it Is thought that they will fail from 80,000 to 10.) 000 bales (equal to from 110,000 to 140,- 000 ba’esof American weight) short of that total. The Brazils it is expected will send something (perhaps 50,000 bales of 180 pou: M more than last season. “Inking - bruad view of the situation,we soc no mason, as respects the matter of the probable future course of prices, to add anything to the rt marks contained in the concluding paragraph of our annual report issued in October. We did not sympathize with the large crop and low price opinions entertained in many quarters two months ago (when December deliveries were Bell ing at 6 9 32d.. and many persons talked of 5 b 4 d. to 6J. as likely to be witnessed in that month), nor do we now; and what has since transpired has justified tbe views then ex pressed. But after the advance which has taken place wc viafi to get a nearer approximation of the size of the American crop than i3 at present possible before saying anything further about the probable fu'ure course of the market. Meanwhile, we may observe that too much importance is being attached to the crop . question and too little to that of the a;z»« j of trade. People seem tp forget that J in the regulation of price de mand k«e H r.ite as much lefiaeuce as sup ply, and that seniimeut is often, for a time, a more powerful factor than either.
