CoupT OF GENERAL SESSIONS AID COMMON
PIEAs-Hon. F. J. MOSES presiding. case
of THos. HAYroN, for stealing two bales OF cotton
from the British bark Regime some time in last
April, was taken up. NJ. P. O'CoNNoR, Esq, ap-
peared for the defence. After long and careful
trial, the jury returned verdict OF guilty. HAY
TON was the same party implicated in the jail
robbery Of SIMPSON, and his present verdict will
tend to keep him in d,rance rie for few months
longer.
FAR.-A Fair will be held at the Hibernian Hall
tomorrow night, for the benefit of st. Stephens
Church. This is the brief notice Of the ADVERTISE
ment, but there are several powerful motives that
should induce an attendance-frst, the entrance
fee is small second, the cause is charity; and third,
the last but not the least the ladies who have the
matter in charge have determined to make this
fair equal to oil that have preceded it. We forbear
any comment at present, but await the opening OF
the fair, feeling assured that the attendance will
be satisfactory to the projectors.
TIE FOURTH IN Co1UMBIA.-The Fourth was
celebrated in Columbia in the old fashioned style,
by Sunday School celebrations, a Tournaments, q
trotting match, and scrub races. At o'clock the
Union Republican party held meeting at tho
vacant square near NIoKERsoN's hotel. After tho
preliminarios had been arranged, Col. r. B. CAR
PENTER, the Register In Bankruptcy for this city,
rs orator of the day, addressed the audience. 1t
was estimated that fully 1000 people were present,
and Mr.. CARPENTER was listened to with great
attention. Col. CARPENTERS speech was exactly
suited to the times, and we would reprint it entire
if the crowded state Of our columns did not forbid

FROM GRFENLAND's 10y >MoUNTAINs.-In the
present stress of weather, it becomes the bounden
duty Of every good citizen 10 use all lawful man
ners and means to cool himself. Before the days
of order No. 49, cobblers andjuleps were the favor
ite beverages of this heated Glass; but the military
fiat las caused a gush of temperance over the
whole land, and tho demand for strong drinks
has-ceased. In this emergency it becomes us as
men to find substitute for the unlawful beVer-
age, and fortunately the task is not difficult. We
are not friendless and there yet
in the country. Mr.. W. ]. Trim, OF Market street.
whose stand is almost an oranatre gaahe11tne, has
added to the popularity Of his establishment by
erecting fountain. It is not such as
the old Spanish explorers desired, but
none can doubt that it il fountain OF
lfe and those who have once tasted the
health-giving, invigorating draughts that MIR.
TRIM manufactures, will at once believe In the
military policy, and become staunch temperance
men. Mr.. TRIM has endeavored to obtain the
finest and most perfect style Of fountain, and IN
this, like other projects, he has been successful.
He can not only furnish the different syrups In
cool and pleasant state, but has an apparatus at
tached to the fount that chips up the ice, and
makes it like snow. When this is added to the
soda water it produces an intense coldness and
causes o glow Of satisfaction to fill the breast OF
the fortunate drinkist. By the use OF this lnVen-
ton, MIR. TRM has become the most popular re-
frigerateur in the city, and we advise all who wsh
to keep cool, and enjoy life, to pay him visit,
drink one glass Of his patent soda, and they will
feel like they had been regenerated and that SEW
ARD was not to be laughed at for his recent pur-
chase.
We have received the following communication
which will probably represent the speakers views
moro fully than tho brief synopsis given in the
NEWS.
CHARLEsToN, July 9Th, 1867.
Editors Daily Ne,os:
GENrLEnEN II observe in your issue Of this
date, o statement referring to remarks made by
us on the 4th instant, which We desire to correct.
BY giving this place, therefore, in your usually
columns, you will greatly oblge the
You state that the audience was addressed by
us, "who eschewed politics, but showed to the
negroes how they could advance themselves In
society," and advise them to study their true inter-
ests, and not be made the tools OF designing
men,"
Now, while we desired to eschew politics, and
we are glad to know that in this we had succeeded,
and while it is fact that we addressed negroes"
almost exclusively (there was, it is true, one or
l,oo white persons present) ( yet We did not ad-
dress them as such; We did not show them, as
NEGROES, how they could advance themselves IN
society; we did not advise them, as negroes, to
study their true interest. Nor did We make one
single reference to designing men, though we DO
know that there are many.
Your statement, above qouted, suggests to our
mind the remark said to have been made by Cuvier
to the academicians, who had defined the crab to
be "a red fsh, that walks backwards. your
definition" said Cuvier els excellent, gentlemen,
but for some mistakes, the crab s not fish, 1t ls
not red, nor does it walk backwards"
We did advise that il we, white and colored, re-
cognize the hand Of God IN the events Of the past
six years, and do our duty to ourselves our coun-
try, and our God, as He gives us to understand
them, an abiding faith in the providence OF God
satisfies us that this great revolution in the lnsti
tutions and habits OF thinking OF our people Will
eventually work out glorious future for our COM
mon country.
