ITALIAM OPERA- OCT. 4.
fSWTiONAL. C/Ol)Mll. OF CAUUpIttC
Btsuors.—This august body, composed
of the hierarchy of tho Roman Cutho
lie Church iu the Uuited States, will
convene at the Cathedral, in this city,
on Sunday, Oct. 7lh, and will continue
until Sunday, October ‘2lst. The pub.
lie sessions will be held on Sunduys
and Thursdays, during the continuance
of the Council, the others being strictly
private. It is expected that seven
Archbishops, forty Bishops and Mitred
Abbots, and about 2.‘>o Priests, will be
present. The last National Council
was held iu May, 1852, in this city, and
was, as many well remember, consid'
ered one of the most imposing religious
displays ever witnessed in this city.
The ceremonies will he opened by a
procession of the Bishops and Clergy,
in full canonical robes, from the arch
episcopal residence, through Franklin
street to the west entrance of the cathe
dral, in which, after a pontifical high
mass and serijaon, the Council will be
formally opened by the Most Rev.
Archbishop Spalding, Primate of the
United States. The Young Catholics’
Friend Society, numbering some 700
members, will act as a guard of honor
during the session. The gathering of
such a hodv and the imposing pageant
will, it is expected, attract many vis
itors to the city from different sections.
—Baltimore Gazette, Sept. 27.
Reasoxs' Why Ladies Should not
Shop on Sati-bday Afternoon. —Be-
cause it is tantalizing to young men who
are fond of the river to be handling
watered silks.
Because it is hard on young men and
women who would like to be at the
Crystal Palace, listening to music, to
have their attention confined to lus
tering and their thoughts busy with
band-boxes.
Because it wonld be a pleasure to see
the cheeks of the girls in the cloak de
partment mantle with the glow of health
(fast colors).
Because it is better for young men
who are cricketers to be minding the
bails of their wickets than the bales of
their employers, nml far more agreeable
to them to take part in a “tie” (both
sides alike) than to tie a scarf.
Because the shop walkers may occa
sionally prefer a country luue to a crepe
laine.
Because it is pleasanter to he shown
English meadows than to be showing
“Sicilian lawns.”
Because if yon detain young women
“matching^ 1 you may prevent them
making a good match elsewhere.
Because it i*’ aggravating to young
men who are rifle volunteers to be an
swering questions about shot-silks, giv
ing replies concerning drills and pro
ducing “Garibaldis' for inspection.
Because too much of the shop may
in the end bring on counterpains.
Because if it is to be all work and no
play, any idea of enjoyment in life be
comes mere—illusion.
I. Kahn & Co.—This enterprising
fii'm have recently refitted their stere in
a convenient and handsome style, and
in "it have put ono of the largest stocks
of dry goods and fancy articles in the
city.
In to-day’s Press, they give the pub
lic some idea of what they have for
sale; embracing a great variety, both
in kind and quality, and at prices
suited to the times.
AVe take pleasure in referring the
reader to their advertisements, and re
commending their establishment to the
patronage of the public, both in the
city and country.
Recorder’s Court. —Tho following
cases were disposed of yesterday in tho
Recorder’s Court:
One 18th section case—defendant
fined SI and costs.
One Bth section case—defendant fined
$1 and costs.
One 3d section case—defendant fined
sls ; all whites.
Two negroes were up for violating the
18th section, and were sentenced to pay
a fine of $lO, or to work thirty days in
the chain gang, each.
A Hxstqryof Jerusalem.— The New
York Citizen says that Mr. Prime, the
editor-in-chief of the Journal of Com
merce, is devoting himself to prepara
tions for writing the “ History of Jeru
salem.” It is a curious fact that no
such work yet exists, and that a city
which has played so great a part in the
life of civilization and of Christendom
still awaits a competent chronicler of its
varied, picturesque, and imposing for
tunes.
Tub large assortment of Boots, Shoes,
Trunks, Reticules, Satchels, Valises,
etc., lately purchased by Mr. Cohen
while North, is being rapidly exhausted;
but additions are arriving per Southern
Express, and the latest styles can be found
at his store. Hats for gentlemen, also
in profusion. No. 182 J Broad street is
the place to buy.
Tiie Daily Press is now a subscrip
tion paper, and published at the low
price of FIVE DOLLARS per annum.
Subscriptions received at Store 190
Broad street. Advertisements inserted
on very liberal terms.
Dead. —We regret to chronicle the
death of an estimable lady resident of
this city, Mrs. Henrietta l’oo!—which
occurred yesterday. Mrs. P., was in
timately known to many of our citizens;
she had arrived at an advanced age.
Carpets, Etc. —Messrs. .T. G. Bailie
& Brit.’ have agree* variety of
oil cloths, and house furnishing godds
generally; with groceries, etc., all ot
which they offer lor sale at reasonable
rates. Go and see them.
Music Class. —Mrs. Warren informs
the public that she has resumed her
music classes. Sec her card in another
column.
JoiocsrA. —The Sumpter (Ga.) Be
publican is responsible for the assertion
that a good deacon 'recently addressed
a Sabbath School, and made a point by
the following anecdote:
“Children,” continued the deacon,
“ yon all know that I went to the legis
latere last year. Well, 1 went to Au
gusta, and took dinner at a tavern;
right beside me at the table sat a mem
ber from one of the back (owns that
lmd never taken dinner before at a
tavern in iiis life. Before his plate was
a djsh of peppers, and lie kept looking
at them ; finally, as the waiters were
mighty slow bringing on things, he up
with his fork and in less than no time
lie soused one into his mouth. As he
brought his grinders down on it, tho
tears came into his eyes. At last, spit
ting the pepper into his hands, he laid
it down by the side of his plate—aud
with a voice that set the whole table iu
a roar, exclaimed : ‘Just lie tliar and
cool.’"
The Tomato as Food.—Miss Bar
ber's Weekly says there is good medical
authority for saying that the tomato is
one of the powerful aperients of
the liver and other organs. Where
calomel is indicated, it is one of the
most effective and least harmful medical
agents known to the profession,—
Diarrhoea has beeu successfully treated
with this vegetable. As an article of
diet, the tomato is a surety against
dyspepsia and indigestion. It is the
most wholesome article in use, whether
cooked, raw, or in the form of catsup.
Dr. Eliuu Tolaxd. — We learn from
the Quiucy Commonwealth, that Dr.
Toland, who was convicted of bigamy
at the August term of the County
Criminal Court, w r as put upon the block,
and hired out by Sheriff Jordan to the
highest bidder. He was bid in by the
county of Gadsden, for five years,
for $1127.50, the amount of fine
and costs of prosecution. He was
remanded to jail and there awaits the*
command of the Board of County Com
missioners.— painbrichpt Argus.
Take Him in out of the Wet. —The
Hawkinsville Dispatch vouches for the
truth of the Following joke :
“1 am dying, wasting away, and no
one cares for me,” remarked a reverend
vidowerof Hawkinsville, to his daughter.
“Why, pa,” said she, “I am your
child, and I care for you, and will do all
in my power to make you comfortable.
“Yes,” said the venerable old gentle
man of some sixty summers, “you may
do all of that and much more, but I
want a wife. There is nothing like a
wife.”
We trust some of the fair sex will
have pity on the old gentleman and take
him “iu out of the wet.”
Now it is and Then it Is’nt. —There
are good reasons for the belief that
there is an organized band of young
sharpers in our midst., wbo3e members
frequently “take in,” the more curious
and credulous whites and blacks who
come hither irom the country. The
former pull wool over the eyes of the
latter, by means of the “string game,”
and the slight of hand three cent in a
card trick, called “now it is and then it
is’ntcountry folks will act wisely if
they avoid “kicking against such old
Daves,” as these young bucks present.
Planters’ Hotel.—By reference to
our advertising columns it will be seen
that the above-named Hotel will reopen
on Monday next, under the auspices of
T. S. Nickerson, Esq., of “Nickerson's
Hotel,” Columbia, S. C., and formerly
of the Mills House, Charleston.
The Planters’ • lias been entirely re
fitted and newly furnished, and the wor
thy proprietor is determined that his
house shall not be surpassed by any
Hotel South of the Potomac.
Select Seed Corn. —Trust this to no
hired man, but doit yourself. Select by
feeling ears a little above medium size
(no monstrosities), close, firm, well
tipped over, tight and full at the butt.
Mark these in some way, as with a daub
of paint, or by tying a string around the
ear. Then, in the huskitigs these may
bo unhnsked, or broken off and then
husked, leaving the husks attached.
Finally select from these the well ripen
ed ones, and those with fewest irregu
larities, false or short rows of kernels,
and braid them up in strings for thorough
drying.
Further Internal Revenue De
cisions.—Commissioner Roilend has
decided that warehouse receipts, dray
receipts, and all other receipts for the
delivery of property, as well as domestic
or inland hills of lading, are now exempt
from stamp duty. No other tax is sub
stituted for tho stamps. The percentage
tax upon railroads, steamboats, etc., and
the special tax upon express companies,
and vessels furnishing passengers with
food and lodgings, may be found under
their proper heads in the new revenue
law.
Catteu.Sfeaks a Piece.— Cattell,the
newly elected Radical Senator from
New Jersey, has lately favored his con
stituents with a speech. He bids fffir to
“out Herod” Stevens himself, as may be
seen from one of his sayings :
“The fact of the President, having a
policy at all, is an act of usurpation.
The Executive is the servant of tjie
Legislature. Cattell is mad,
Gen. Thomas, —The following New
York dispatch, to the Cincinnati Gazette,
dated September 26th, would seem to
point out Gen. Thomas as a supporter
of the President's policy:
“General George 11. Thomas will bo
summoned to Washington to assume the
duties of Mr. Stanton, in case ol the
retirement of that officer. General
Thomas is now in this city.”
For Rent. —Several notices of houses
for rent and ono house wanted, in our
paper this morning.
Important, if True. —Some of the
leading papers in the County have ex
pressed the fear, recently, that President
Johnson would yield to Radical pres
sure, so far as to consent to a change of
his policy toward the South. The fol
lowing, which appears under dato of
New York, Sept. 28th, is important
if true—touching as it docs upon the
subject above mentioned :
“A Herald Washington correspon
dent suys : The statement having pre
vailed that the President is about to
modify his policy to the extent of rc
Commending the proposed constitutional
amendment to the adoption of Southern
misrepresented States, authority is giveu
for a most emphatic denial. The Pre
sident considers the amendments now
proposed a violation of the fifth article
of the Constitution, and therefore in
valid, aud it would be in contravention
of his oath of office to encourage them
in any way. There is, however, reason
to believe that he contemplates recom
mending to Congress, at its next ses
sion—first, the admission of the repre
sentatives of all the States, and then the
proposed amendment to the Constitu
tion, embracing in a less objectionable
form the essential elements of those now
pending.”
The Importance of Energy.—When
Sir Goliu Campbell, on being appointed
to the command of the Indian army,
was asked when he would be ready to
set out, his answer was “ To-morrow,”
an earnest, as has been well, remarked,
of his future success. For it is quick
decision and promptitude in action, such
as taking instant advantage of au ene
my’s mistake, which so often win bat
tles. “ Every moment lost,” said Na
poleon, “gives au opportunity for mis
fortune,” and he used to say he beat
the Austrians because they never knew
the value of time; while they dawdled,
he overthrew them. And so in busi
ness. The successful man is always
found to be prompt in action. He
acts whilst his neighbor is hesitating
and deliberating!
It is impossible to overrate the value
of decision in tho business of life—and
the energetic man will always be found
to bfe a man of firmness and decision of
character. Promptitude is of almost
equal value. The man of promptitude
seizes and turns to account the opportu
nity which his less energetic and care
less neighbor allows to slip past him.
Fast Young Men.— Chapin said a
good thing when he uttered these words:
“I must pity that young man who, with,
a little finery of dress aud recklessness
of manner, with his coarse passions all
daguerreotyped upon his face, goes
whooping through these streets, driving
an animal much nobler than himself, or
swaggering into some haunts of show,
and calls it, “enjoying life.” He thinks
lie is astonishing the world ; and he is
astonishing the thinking part of it, who
are astonished that he is not astonished
at himself. For look at that compound
of flash and impudence, and say if, on
all this earth, there is anythiug more
pitiable ! He know anything of the
true joys of life ? As well say that the
beauty and immensity of the universe
were all inclosed in the field whore the
prodigal lay among the husks and
swine 1
New Establishment. —Mr. Julius G.
Tucker has opened a large and hand
some stock of goods at Day, Russell &
Benjamin’s old stand, corner of Broad
and Jackson streets, where he will be j
pleased to see the ladies, and all who
desire to purchase anything in his line
of business. Give him a call.
Removal. —Messrs. Davidsou & Cos.
have removed to No. 256 Broad street,
where they will have a great variety of
boots and shoes, hats and caps ; and
also, a large lot. of lamps, shades, kero- *
sene oil. etc.

Oysters in the Shell. —Schneider
announces the reception of oysters in
the shell—the first instalment of the ,
