| THE CRY OF CHARLESTON AT PREsENT.-It Of
fords us real pleasure to re-publish, from the
Charleston Ntws the following satisfactory state
ment concerning the sadly war-worn Palmetto
city:
Our much loved city has latterly enjoyed sea-
son of remarkable quiet The turbulent element
of both classes appears to have either become re-
formed or to have been exterminated. The pun
ishment inflicted on the unwary sinner in either
the Mayor or Provost Court may have had great
deal to do with this change; but the probability is
that the credit is due to our police and to Leuten-
ant Hendricks efficient corps of lynx-eyed detec-
tiyes. AS it is, Charleston is fast regaining her
normal position. Her once proud boast that
"Chareston is godly place and full of godly pco-
ple," will be again truism. She will rise from
her ashes purified by the struggle through which
she has passed. Already sho ranks among her
sister Southern cities the most quiet and order
ly. Any disturbance in her midst is rare and ea-
silly queled. This state of affairs is peculiarly
observable on the Sabbath. Though We have now
no sweet chimes to sound aloud the call to prayer,
yet the churches arc all opened and filled with at
tentive congregations. Our colored population
were always remarkable for their religious fervor.
This has been in nowisc diminished by recent
events. New churches have been purchased by
them, and popular preachers obtained, and they
have, in every respect, exhibited laudable desire
to improve their condition. The cry that we are
retrograding, which is now being raised, is no
doubt true in many respects; but as long as it
tends to increase the order and discipline of our
city, it is to be commended. AS the Queen City of
the South, Charleston never has, and never will,
disgrace her name.

CROWDED OUT.

We have endeavored to present our usual varie-

address of the Philadelphia Convention, but the
pressure of new Advertisements has crowded our
inside pages. Readers will bear with the failure
this time, as the best plans are often frustrated by
unforeseen circumstances. we hope that the i'm
portance of the Address will compensate in some
measure, however, for the lack of variety.

BALTIMORE.

The cnterprising and reliable firm of ARMSTRONG,
GATOR & Co., Baltimore, Md, seeks an acquaint.
anco through our columns with the merchants Of
this section. we take especial pleasure in recon-
mendng this establishment, since We are fully
apprised of its antecedents and can safely endorse
these gentlemen as Southern in feeling, sentiment
and action Mr. CATon will be long remembered
by many of our soldiers as an active and energet-
ic friend; through his kindness and liberality du-
ring the war; the wants and necessities of prison
ers were constantly relieved and attended to. We
trust that our merchants will remember such men
when replcnishing their stocks, for the fall and
winter trade.
Next to our own commercial metropolis we
think it important that Baltimore should share the
Southern patronage. Her merchants are pre-
pared to supply goods on equal terms with North
ern cities, and there is every nducement to sustain
the effort being made to build up afrst-class busi-
ness there Sympathy in the past, no less than
safety in the future, demands that wo cherish and
foster the resources of our own section.
