yesterday, with large and valuable cargo OF cot
ton and other merchandise. We hope that this
important freight is only the commencement OF
the extensive business which should be transacted

great centre Of New England industry and our
own city an important centre of Southern trade
should each afford ample sustenance to large
and growing commerce which should be mutually
advantageous. The agent OF this line here. VIM.
Foach, ESQ.,, is using his best efforts to make the
line an important addition to the commerce Of our
port.

60 that only early risers will have an opportunity
CT seeing the heavenly fire works. America will
probably be illuminated through the greater por-
ton of the night, and it will be very interesting to
astronomers to observe how they keep time, and
whether there is any uniformity Of appearance In
the heavens along the pathway marked out fol
them.
1t is not known if these appearances have any
connection with the late elections; but they will
certainly throw some light on the country.

Bluffton. was robbed some weeks back Of horse

negro man calling himself Jno. Kirk was arrested
for the first robbery, but was found not guilty

more than he would tell about the silver, caused
him to be re-arrested and confined in the jail No
tifcation of the robbery was left at the detective
office: and Lieutenant Hendricks detailed Officer
Caldwell to work up the case. Six of the spoons
and forks were stopped at Mr. Carrington's jewelry
store. but the negro who offered them for sale
succeeded in escaping. They were, however,
traced to Kirk and that worthy can have the plea
