AN INoENDIARY ATTEMPT. AT four o'clock
yesterday morning the alarm Of fire was given by
policeman, who saw smoke issuing fiom the OPEN
ing over the doorway Of store on the West side
Of Nng-street, near Liberty, occupied by John
Madden as a dry goods and clothing store. The
hremen were soon on the spot, and the door being
broken open, the fire was discovered among the
shelves on the South side Of the building land light
was also seen through an augur hole in the floor.
On ripping up the floor bucket containing splin-
tered lightwood was found under the hole. AS
there was no cellar to the building it was evident
that the bucket had been placed in its position
only BY removing the focr, and on searching a
place was found where the boards had been ripped
up and replaced, one Of them being split The
Ightwood was Of the same description as some
found in the house, and the bucket was said to be
the food bucket Of the COW. Fortunately very lit
tie damage was done to either building or stock,
and $50 would cover the entire loss. The house
belonged to the estate of Barrett and the stock Of
goods was insured for $4,000 at Mr.. S. Y. Tupper's
agencies. Madden and his wife slept on the same
aoor, in the rear Of the store, and claimed to be
aroused when the alarm was given, but the cir
cumstantial evidence was 80 strong that they were
arrested on suspicion of having set the fire.

HAYNE-sraEET AooEssIoNs.-The popularity Of
Hsyne-street as business thoroughfare has never
been lost, and though it has felt the result of the
war, it is fast recovering from its depression. The
stores that were so long enantless are being occu-
pied, and the wholesale merchants are making
active preparations for the Spring campaign.
Among the changes that have taken place is the
opening of a Mercantile Agency by Messrs. R. G..
Dunn Co., at No. 5, while the cleaning and re-
pairing Of other stores are sure signs that their
shelves will not long remain empty. The stores
formerly occupied by Messrs. Jno. Ashhurst Co.,
aud Harral, Stevenson Co., as wholesale drug
houses, are now being fitted up for the reception
Of Messrs. Edw. DAILY & Co. and Messrs. Lengnick
Sell. These gentlemen are so well known that
their customers will have no difficulty in tracing
them to their new locations and the difference in
the rents will be quite consideration in these
tight times.

The JAn--The recent escape from the jail in
duced the Commissioners Of Public Buildings to
lock after their stronghold and devise ways and
means that would effectually separate the unruly
portion Of the community from the outer world.
The gates, though Of wood, are still quite strong,
and can stand the attacks Of time for some years;
but it was considered necessary to have them Sc
cured in such manner as to prevent any egress
on the part Of evil disposed prisoners. The low
state Of their funds has heretofore prevented the
commissioners from obtaining burglar-proof
lock- and, the same difficulty remaining, it was de-
cided to give the gate double fastening, one lock
on either side. This will necessitate some extra
labor on the part of the jailor, but will prevent
any future escapes being made in that direction.
The hasps and staples to be used were made by
Mr.. Richardson Of wrought iron, and have been
riveted to an iron plate attached to the gate. The
padlocks are the best known, and hereafter those
prisoners who look at the gate will despair Of ever
making their exit through the locks, bolts and
bars that secure it.

BoREAs ON BREEzE.-The mild weather OF the
past two days was suddenly changed by the
thunder storm into clustering and disagreeaDie
day. Yesterday afternoon was clear, but the w'no
IVES up and ripe for mischief-hats were seized
ruthlessly from the heads Of the unwary and rat
tied disdainfully through the mud; parasols and
! umbrellas stood m better chance, and were
wrested from thehand and turned wrongside out In
twinkiing. By night old Boreas had fairly worked
himself into passion, and howled around the
corners of the street, and blew the smoke down
the chimneys in disreputable manner. 1t is not
known if any damage was done in his froic; but
there are sundry old trees in the city that need but
the strong breath Of Winter to PROSTATE them.
Fences, trees shingles and such small matters are
but as the chaff before the wind that blew last
night; and though tornadoes are not incidental to
this climate, it would not be surprising if this
morning some houses had more of the daylight
visible through the roofs than is pleasant to the
inmates.

TIE CHRISTMAS TREE at Commins' Hall WAS
unveiled last night. We visited the scene late
in the evening, and were at once carried back to
the days of our childhood, when trees were twice
as green, and four times as tall as any now.
The first attraction was the transparency "Christ-
mas Tree" in front Of the Hall, which suited the
occasion to T. inviting all passers by to the festive
court of Christkiudel The next attraction that
allured us was the Sixth Infantry Band, which
discoursed sweetest strains, and much epiven-
ed the evening. We proceeded, went up stairs,
and there met perfect bevy Of attractons-the
whole hall blaze of light and enchantment-
beautiful young ladies', in the most bewitch-
ing smiles, asking, won't you take chance?'
We saw the wheel of fortune, we saw grab-bags,
beautiful tables, set out in brilliant array; orange
trees full Of fruit, and the great, the splendid
Christmas tree in the centre, the cynosure Of all
eyes. Jacobs Well' is a splendid reproduction
of that famous Oriental institution, and in itself
worth going to see. Everybody, it should be re-
membsred, who pays the entrance fee Of twenty
five cents, draws prize The ladies of St. Pauls
Church merit the highest praise for the handsome
and tasteful manner in which everything is ar
ranged. The pleasant face Of Father shadler was
not wanting to help on the good cause. Let every
one go tonight.

COLUMBIA AND AUGUSTA RAnRoAD.-An excur-
sion train was run to the terminus of this road on
Wednesday afternoon, and ample time allowed the
passengers to thoroughly examine the whole
bridge, as well as the general nlodas operdndi Of
railroad building. The Ph@nix says the track
.yers have reached point little more than four
miles on the Lexington side Of the river, and it is
thought that within the next two months, the snort
OF the iron horse will announce to the quiet in
habitants of the village Of Lexington that bona
tide railroad train is actually making its way
through that District. The bridge over the Con-
garee is deserving of more than passing notice.
as it is truly skilful piece of workmanship. 1t
is an "Undergrade Fink suspension truss" total
length of 1910 feet in ten spans single track road
way; depth Of truss 81 feet; all compression
strains in cast iron; all tensile strains in wrought
iron; pier towers in tripod form Of wrought iron,
capacity 2OOO pounds per lineal foot of road way,
and equal to passing over with safety train COM
posed Of fifty locomotive engines, averaging twenty
tons each Cost of structure about $4,000.

TIE TEST OATH.-John b. Honour, Esq, was
recently elected by the Mayor and Aldermen oi
Charleston to the office of City Assessor. re-
QUESTION was made upon him to qualify for his po-
sition by taking the test oath, which he decilDeo
to do. Tho Office was therefore declared vacant,
and, on Wednesday night, at an extra meeting OF
Council, Mr. VIM. N. Hughes was recommended 10
General Candy for appointment to the position
RIOT AT SOCIETY HILL.-About fifty armed ne
groes, few days ago, we learn, passed through
the streets of Society Hill, firing guns and other
wise breaking the public peace. Information De-
ing lodged with the military, five of the ringead-
crs were arrested, and the matter is now under
going investigation. These riots are becoming
common everywhere, and, We fear, it is only the
beginning OF the end. AS it was one Of the speclai
objects of the Military Reconstruction acts to fur
nish governments to the 'Rebel" States, we hope
the powers that be will see to it that the first
Office of q good government is performed-tna'
peace is kept, order preserved, and life and prop
erty properly secured
MORE BURNINa.-A gentleman, yesterday from
Darlington, informs us that Mr.. james Bells GIN
house, in the suburbs of Darlington c. D., was
robbed, about o'clock yesterday morning, ana
afterwards burned--clearly the work Of an incend-
ary This is the third fire Of this character In anu
around that village within the past five days; IN
every instance the work OF incendiaries, prompted
it is thought. partly by malice and partly by
desire Of plunder.
The garrison heretofore stationed at Darlington
has been ordered of, to the detriment, it is feared
of the public peace. So fully are the citizens OF
that section impressed with the fact, and with the
impending crisis, that the town Council OF Oar
lington has sent petition to General Candy, ask
ing him TO withdraw his order, and permit the gar
rison to remain.
