The Charleston daily news. [volume] (Charleston, S.C.) 1865-1873, 1867-10-24

| the first number OF the now German paper, which
has been announced for some time. Its typogra-
ply is all that coull be des rcd, as indeed we kne"
| it would be-Mr. WALKER nover putting his I'M
prinatur On any but first-class work. The edtor'
| Gen. JOHN 4 WAaENER, is an old hand at the
| helm, and if the first number is fair specimen oi
the Zeiiung, our German friends, We feel assureo'
will not only have high national representative
but will also, at all times offer it hearty welcome
at thoir homes and at their fresides.
TIE LIaHrs ON THE STREET CARs.-The Street
Railway Company have at last perfected change
in the lights on the King street line, by whicn
they are now easily distinguished. The light hrst
in use assimilated too closely to the street amps,
and change was necessary in order to let the
public discriminate. A blue light was first tired,
but the experiment proved unsuccessful, as 1t was
of an invisible shade that could not be recognized
from the darkness, and green was substituted
This last change has proved satisfactory, and the
King street cars have now verdant appearance
that is visible even on the darkes! night.
AUCTION SALE.-Messrs. MCKAY i CAMPBELL
will to-day offer to the public choice lot OF
smoked bacon sides, shoulders, trimmings, &c.,
aud whiskey and wines. They will also offer the
stock of a country store, which comprises little
of everything under the sun. These goods are
sold without any reserve, and should command the
attention of city merchants. In addition to the
other articles superior seven-octayo piano ana
gold and silver watches will be sold.
Messrs. MCKAY & CAMPBELL have endeavored to
give some variety to their sales, and the pupho
have seldom any cause to complain. Their sales
room is large, and the arrangements for the ac-
commodation Of their customers ample, and we
advise all who wish to test its capacity to be on
hand to-day and they will not regret it.
RECONSTRUCTION UNDER THE MILITARY BILL
recent visit to the Citadel and glance at the
improvements now in progress, presented the MILL
tary bill in its most favorable light. Reconstruc-
ton is there reduced to science, and dlvested OF
all the theories that have added Congressional
brains. The military authorities have made
practical illustration Of the advantages to be de-
rived from the BILL and haze already improved the
appearance of the Citadel and grounds. The fence
enclosing the green has been whitewashed, and
the same color applied to the buildings. This Is
great improvement on their old weather-stained
and rusty color, and when the work Of demolition
and reconstruction is completed, the Citadel will
be one of the ornaments Of the city. On the King
street side this change will be more perceptble,
as with the exception Of the old Guard House, tho
buildings are now being torn down, and the green
extended to the sidewalk. If the same operation
could be performed on the opposite side OF the
street, and the houses that now line that block be
removed, the Orphan House enclosure would be
considerably enlarged, and that portion Of King
street become more fashionable locality
INoUEsT-Coroner WHITING concluded an in
quest held upon the body of Captain JOSEPH Al
pHoNsE, who died suddenly Tuesday morning, just
after leaving his residence on st. Philip street for
his boat, lying at Union Wharf
The following is the report Of the posi- naortern
examination made by DR.. MICHEL:
The autopsic examination revealed the follow
ing Appearances On opening the chest, serous
tiuid escaped, as though the death was from
dropsy Of this cavity, but it was found that tho
fluid originated in the areolar tissue OF the medi-
astinunl. Tho lungs were healthy. The peri
cardium, or membraneg around the heart, was
repletely distended by coagulated blood, instead
of being entirely empty Of any fluid, as is normal.
When the clotted blood was removed, the heart
appeared natural in form, size and position, but
at its base was considerable enlargement, form
ed by the arch Of the aorta. This proved to be an
aneurism Of this great blood vessel, just beyond
the point at which it springs from the heart 1t
was now evident that the blood, filing the perlcar
dial sac must have escaped from rupture OF the
aneurism, and the point at which this rupture CO.
CURED, discovered on the right side, and most
dependent part Of the tumor, near the pendulous
portion Of the auricle. Calcareons depositions
listed in the mitral valve. The LEFT ventricle was
somewhat hypertrophied, but not dilated.
From these facts DR.. MIoHEI deposed that the
deceased came to his death from ''rupture OF an
aneurism of the arch Of the aorta, caused by dis
ease Of the walls of the artery and obstruction to
the circulation from valvular deposits"
The Jury rendered verdict in accordance with
the above statement.
