WE WOULD call the attention OF purchasers to
the advertisement of Mr.. !. N. ROBSON, Agent for
DuPoST's Powder. He has o large and complete
stock, which will always be kept up, and which he
will daily d,ivc4 to any part OF the city. The
Messrs DUPONT commenced the manufacture OF
powder in 1901, and have kept their powder up to
the standard, and an experience of thirty years
with their former Agents here have always given
complete satisfaction. Their establishment i3 one
of the largest in the United States capable ot turn
ing out cne thousand kegs daily, with capital o
over two million dollars invested, thus giving a
guarantee that purchasers can depend on what
they get. Mr. ROBSON is prepared to sell at lowest
market rates, and, indeed, as low as it can be or
dered from the factory in small lots.

TIE CARpozA CAsE.-In the New York Herald Of

ored man, originally from this city, some time ago
arrested for embezzli1g letters and money, under
an assumed name, from the postofdce In Brooklyn,
on Tuesda. last was admitted to bail in the sum
ofs1,5OO before Judge BENEDICT. The case has
been transferred for trial to the Circuit Court.
Won SANTEN's BAzAR.-The name Bazaar is
enough to inform the public that this establish
mont contains everything needful, but the propre-
tor has recently added to his already extensive
stock complete assortment Of fine toilet soaps.
I'VE invite the attention Of our readers-and partc-
ularly the ladies-to his advertisement, knowing
that q visit TO the Bazaar will coon follow.

PENDANTS be held subject to the furaher order of
this Court. The warrant reLurnablo on Tue sday,

SUMMERv1LLE HoTEr.-The visitors to Summer
vile will be pleased to learn that this hotel known
as VosEs, aud situated convenient distance from
the depot, has been re-opened under the auspices
Of Mr. P. '. BRANDT. The popularity of Summer
vile as suburban retreat will be greatly enhanc-
ed by the opening Of this hotel, and Mr.. BRANDT
will no doubt receive the patronage Of our tired
and dusty citizens who are anxious to escape the
heat and hustle Of Charleston.
TM Sixth INFANTRY BAND.-Tired nature was
completed restored last. night by the delicious
music Of the Sixth Band,, who were performing at
the Charleston Hotel. We have missed the music
Of the band for some time, and hail it's reappear-
anse with pleasure as the best antdote to the blues
that be- found The serenade Of last night caused
the hours 10 glide swiftly away and the pen moved
smoothly along keeping time with the different
tui es.
EAST BAy.-The paving Of this street has greatly
improved its appearance and given perfect satis-
faction, btt the recent heavy rains have caused
certain portions to cave in and ugly puddles were
formed The workmen have been eng aged, when
ever the weather permitted: in repairing these
damages, and If the sun continues to shine for o
few days in succession, the street will be again in
thorough order. So FAR, only the portion from
Frasers Wharf to the Battery has been paved, the
Cup being left TO await the Strengthening Of the
street by the city authorities. Resolutions to this
effect were passsd in Council, and arrangements
made procure the necessary ground from the q.
s. Government. The surveys of the street were
made yesterday and as that is one step toward the
proposed rectitional demonstration, we may hors
soon toses straight thoroughfare from the Bat
teryto the Bend. &,:15s,.4.
TIE N1cHo1soN, oAvE,HNT.-This payement,
about Which so much has been said, has attracted
attention ii other cities beiide Charleston. In
New Orleans the Nicholson pavement is now being
laid down; General BEAuREaAaD putting down two
squares at his own expense. The Savannah Re-
publican, in commenting upon this, asks If no one
IN that city has the courage and greenbacks to pay
half the cost Of one square, providing the City
.Fathers foot the balance. As heproject has al
ready been agitated in Council ard the Committee
on Streets seem anxious to improve their present
dilapidaled condition, but ore prevented by the
impoverished state of the Treasury, it would not
be q bad plan for the citizens interested in this
work toaid the city by their means, and secure q
good and permanent pavement in the place Of the
mud holes that now ornament the city.
ENTERpRlsNa FREEDalEN.-The aptitude of
Sambo to acquire knowledge has been often dis
played, but in some few cases their requirements
have not conferred on them much renown. Ger
tain enterprising colored men have made them
selves profcents in several confidence games, an1
wander about the wharves and wagon yards prey
Ing upon the credulity Of the country negroes.
The victimized, when they discover their losses,
are furious. but the gay deceivers are ahen minus
and their haunts unknown The boldness with
which this cheating is performed imposes upon
the strange darkes, and they bet without susp-
cion but s'the test laid schemes Of mice and men
oft gang aglee," and the cheats frequently dis
covered by the detectives and housed in jail. A
raid was made yesterday upon q gang Of these
villains who had their headquarters at the James
Island landing, and when discovered, had swindled
from their unsuspecting victims S23 and q COW.
The detectives soon overhauled the party, and
they were made to return their il-gotten spoils.
