The portly and dignified persouagi* of Ex-Gov. Cumming, formerly Terre torial Governor of Utah, was visible on our streets yesterday. Snow. There was a slight show of snow in the air, at Rome, Ga., on Monday, but not enough to whiten the jund. - Firat Nhnd. The Charleston A T ewe, of yesterday, says that the first shad of the season, fine and luscious in quality, was served up yesterday at the Pavilion Hotel, in the style characteristic of that excellent house. ■ - —* The Presidency Message. We had hoped to lay this document in exlenso before our readers this morning, but failed in getting it through the wires. In to-morrow’s issue we confidently expect to present • it in full. - Appointment by the Mayor. /Agreeable to resolution of Council, His Honor, Mayor Russell, on Monday night, filled the office of Recorder by the appointment, until the January election, of Samuel H. Crump, Esq. Ilan Victorious! Dan spread his canvass, and in spite of old Boreas’ hard blow, filled his bill -of fare on Monday evening. On Tuesday old Boreas got tired and and went to rest, while old Sol came out, and with it Dan, his splendid chariot and his camels. The performances yesterday were of such a degree of marvel and interest, that all who saw them were more than satisfied. We commend “persistent Dan,” wherever he may go, assured that he will give satisfaction every where. — 4 Munificent Donation. It is really gratifying, at times like' the present, to chronicle such acts of true Christian benevolence as that conceived and executed by Mrs. E. 11. Tubman, in the donation of five hun dred dollars for the benefit of the poor of the city. We trust that her noble example will induce a generous rivalry among others, in the donation of such amounts as their ability may justify, to the same humane purpose. In another column will be found His 1 lonor Mayor Russell’s acknowledge ment of the receipt of the donation here alluded to. ■— ' ♦ Star Spangled Bauuer. We have received from the publish ers, the “Star Spangled Banner” for January. With this number it enters upon its seventh volume, and is en larged and improved, giving nearly double the former amount of matter. It is a rich, rare sheet of 40 long col umns and eight large pages, illustrated, and is really the cheapest paper in the country. Its publishers present, gratis, to every subscriber, a splendid engraving, and the price of all is only 75 cents. Specimens can be seen at this office, or will be sent free by ad dressing Star Spangled Banner, Hinsdale, N. 11. -Inst as Represented. The firm of Hunter A Co., Book sellers, etc., Hinsdale, N. 11., is one among a thousand. Their business is immense, tjjeir daily mail numbering frequently fire hundred letters. Our readers in want of books, cards, prints, etc., etc., can not do better than send lor Hunter A Co.’s catalogue. The .defrerifrer’a Gazette, for De cember, in an extended editorial, says: “We believe there is no other house in the country which has carried the specialty, if specialty it can be called, to such a degree of perfection. It matters not what you may desire. If at our Broadway palaces your favor ite book can not be obtained, forward an order for it to Hunter <fc Co., and it will be forthcoming by return mail. There is no firm more reliable, and no other establishment where an order can be filled w ith less trouble to the customer.” By dealing with the above firm our readers will avoid being swindled, as Messrs. Hunter & Co., have the repu tation of being honest and honorable dealers. • Reatitii'ul Fancy Goods, In great variety, at 190 Broad street • • —The Bona. relates the story of a monk by day and a brigand by night. He is said to be a very holy friar and a very bold robber, so that it is difficult to say in what role he most excels. Bov. A. J. Byaa. Father Ryan, tin popular author of nuowrous poem* relating to the South and the <’onfodefab War. and the «e complished o>Utor-iit chief pf the Bantu r of ' the South of this city, con templates delivering a leeturc in ' Charleston, S. C., on the 27th instant for the lionefit of St. Patricks Male Orphan Asylum. The popularity of the lecturer, coupled with the felt ini portanee of the noble charity he is to represent, can but rcsiflt in establish ing a widespread interest in this matter among the generous public of our sister city. A l.aundry Seerel. The following recipe for doing up shirts will be found of use by many housewives: Take two ounces of fine white gum arabic powder—put it into a pitcher and pour on a pint or more of water —and then, having covered it, let it stand all night. In the morning pour it carefully from the dreg» into a clean bottle, cork it and keep it for use. A table-spoonful of gum water stirred in a pint of starch made in the ufeual manner, will give to lawns, either white or printed, look of new ness, when nothing else can restore them after they have been washed. Short Dresses Are good things for the shoemakers and bad for the doctors. The ladies buy and wear better -shoes, and the doctors‘report a noticeable decline in diseases among women coming from damp, cold feet. When long garments prevailed, women were very careless in this respect, often wearing thin and broken shoes, and this, together with the dampness al ways clinging to their long skirts, brought on illness, which not unfrequently terminated fatally. Industrial Schools. The establishment in Augusta of one or more schools on a free industrial plan is a matter which should claim at once the liest efforts and noblest gen erosity of her benevolent and humane citizens. Within the limits of our city, in the humbler walks of life, there are scores of little girls, who, without the inter position of some such noble charity, must blossom into womanhood igno rant of all those arts of handicraft and housewifery, which so embellish and beautify home. The very station of life in which circumstances have thrown them, is unfavorable to their instruction at home in the varied branches of needle-work, embroidery, etc., which are not only so essential to woman’s position in domestic life, but oftentimes constitute her sole de pendence for the necessaries of exist ence. We shall not insult the good sense and benevolence of our community by anything like argument on this point. We regard the importance of this mat ter too palpable to require more than a simple suggestion. We .desire sim ply to induce thought on this subject, assured that a consideration of it in its varied bearings on the interests of society, must lead to action in the pre mises, by those who profess to be gov erned by the spirit of Christian philan thropy. The Western Hog Trade. The Cincinnati Price Current, of Wednesday, says: Hogs have come to market rather sparing ly, which must be attributed to the line feeding weather, and to the fact that prices are rather below the estimate of feeders. Large receipts cannot be expected until the weather breaks. The demand for tlie hog product has been fair, but prices declined, though the price of hogs advanced. The weather has been very favorable for curing, and packers inform us that pork is curing more rapidly and perfectly than for many years. The Louisville Courier remarks : The market is active and firmer, under the impression that the crop, at least in Ken tucky, will prove a short one, and the pack ers are meeting the views of drovers more freely. We bear of sales of 1,815. hogs, in lots, as to weight, at prices ranging *7.35 to $7.85 gross; and also a sale of a selected lot of extra heavy hogs at 8 cents gross. Tub Keith Testimonial.—The neat and appropriate tomb erected in Bt. Michael’s Churchyard to the mem ory of the late pastor, already referred to in the Xews, is surmounted by a cross, and in the centre of the tomb, on a raised crucifix, is inscribed: “ Rev. Paul Trapier Keith, born Octo ber 26, 1801 ; died August 23, 1868.” On the relieved part below is the fol lowing scriptural text: “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord; yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors.” Rev. xiv : 13. On the die below is engraved : “ The la dies of St. Michael’s Church had this stone erected in testimony of their affection for their much loved rector.” The grave is enclosed by marble slabs, and carefully arranged and adorned. [Charleston Notes, 'Uh. River Immersion. —Between two and three thousand colored persons, and a few whites, witnessed the im mersion of twenty-two men and forty three women, all colored, at the foot Council street’, yesterday morning. The Rev. J acob Legare, of the Morns street Colored Baptist Church, offici ated. Excepting some noisy ebullition of feeling on the port of the friends and the relatives of the candidates for baptism, the strictest order was ob served.—Charleston News, ilk. —A machine has been invented in New England which embosses and cuts paper collars in ton hour';.

His re mains were interred in the family burying grounds in Lexington, Ga. T Ntwnan Herald. The Marion Disturbance.—A correspondent writing to the News, under date of Saturday, the sth iust., says that the prisoners in the jail arc still rebellious and have not yet sur rendered to the authorities, although they have had nothing to cat since Thursday last, the day ou which the disturbance commenced.— Charleston News. West End Accident.—On Satur day night, about seven o’clock, the keeper of a drinking saloon, named Buston Gorham, was shot by the ac cidental discharge of a pistol which was in his pocket. He was walking across the floor at the time of the shooting. The ball from the pistol, ' after passing through the scrotum, en tered the left thigh in the neighbor ■ hood of the femoral artery and fanged downward. Up to this writing the ball had not been extracted. Just previous to the accident we learn that Gorham had been beating an old and inoffensive man.— Atlanta Intelligencer, xth. Resumption of (specie Payments. —There is a powerful combination now forming in this city, headed by Jay Cooke, for the purpose of securing an early resumption of specie pay ments. The combination is said to embrace a large number of the ablest men in the Republican ranks, who repudiate the proposition of Senator Sherman to prepare for resumption two years hence. They express the determination to nave specie payments at a much earlier day, and the purpose is to press for au immediate resump tion. A leading politician, here, who professes to bo in the combination, says that the scheme is fully endorsed by Gen. Grant, who will threw the whole weight of his influence in its favor, and who w ill take an active part in securing its success.— Washington Letter in Baltimore Gazette. Annexation.—Considerable agita tion at present exists in East New York in consequence of a movement which has been set on foot by some of thq principal propertv owners to have the place annexed to Brooklyn. East New York is a rising locality, and is distant one hour and ten minutes from Fulton Ferry. It has churches and schools, and a newspaper called the Sentinel is published there. A largo proportion of the inhabitants; who dread au increase of taxation in the event of its being incorporated with Brooklyn, are opposed to the measure. They settled down there for the pur pose of obtaining quiet and cheap homes; but the demand for property in that locality has caused East New' York to increase rapidly within the last few years, and it now contains about ton thousand inhabitants, scat tered over a considerable area. The majority of residents seem to be in favor of obtaining a village charter, and arc opposed to annexation. The question will probably be brought bee fore the next Legislature, when a lively time may be expected. How ever, when the East River shall be tunnelled and Ri-idyad, Brooklyn will soon swell beyond its present bounds, and absorb all the townships in Kings county.— N. K Nww. <♦♦♦ —A one-half interest in the well known Mills House, of Charleston, was sold at auction, on Tuesday, at the very low figure of £35,000, to Cohen, Hankel & Co. Terms: one third cash, balance payable iu one and two years. The auctioneer (Mr. Eruns) announced that the Mills House was built at a cost of £160,000 in gold, and could not now be built for less than $200,000. Ile also said that the re- ceipts of the bar-room had averaged £BO per day, or £60,000 in the year, and that an offer had been made to rent it at £5,000 a year. —A large meeting was held, on Tuesday, evening, in New York, for the purpose of enlisting sympathy for Hester Vaughn, the young woman now under sentence of death, in Phila delphia, charged with killing new born child. A memorial asking tue Governor of Pennsylvania to pardon her was adopted. .Speeches were made by lion. Horace Greeley, Parker Pills bury, Susan B. Anthony, Ernestine L. Rose and others. —A mau named Cable, in North Carolina, wagered two gallons of tar against a quart of brandy that he could drink the quart of brandy, and then walk to his home, a mile distant, before becoming insensible. He drank the brandy, w alked the distance 1 , and then sank down, saying, “ Boys, I’ve lost the bet,” and instantly ex pired. —ln Belgium a new mode of dress ing wounds has been adopted. A sheet of lead one-fifth of an inch in thickness is applied to the seat of injury, and made to assume its shape by pressure. By means of strips of adhesive plaster the lead is secured, and a current of fresh water is poured over the surface pf the flesh once or twicq a tltvy. —Rev. S. Mint/*, of the Church oi England, for twenty-five years a leader in the extreme Low Church party, has published a treatise in which he informs the world that he now sees that the doctrine of eternal punishment is miscriptural, and at tacks that article of faith with th»- .irougest phrau’s which his new opinion would suggest.
