The CALVARY BAPTIST CnuncH.-We regret that, |
in our report of tho Mayors Court yesterday, we
unintontionnlly cast n slur upon very worthy
congregation Colored Calvary Baptist Church.

FRENCH and WEDsTER's congregations, but ia mado
up of our most respectable colored people, and
has tho sanction of our best ctizens.
A HINT TO LIQUOR DEhLEns.-We are informed
by gentleman from Georgia, that if proper efforts
were made, q large liquor trade could bo done by
merchants with that State. The State taxes
al liquors there twenty cents per gallon, and this
would give great advantages to our dealers. A
little cxertion on the part of some that we could
name might increase their trade enormously.
EDITORIAL V1sIT.-Wo had the pleasure last
night Of visit from Col. T. r. FILDEs, editor of
the Quitman tGa) Banner. The Colonel is on
visit to the North but will rot leave the city until
noon to-day; and as his paper is published in
section Of country where Charleston once did
largo trade, it might be advantageous for our
merchants to give him their cards for publication.
His paper is very excellent one. Tho Colonel is
ut the Charleston Hotel.
