A GEM OF A PICruRE.-Mr. J.J. Mundy, a pho
tographic artist, who has recently opened his gal
lery in King-street, on tie Citadel Green, has
created some excitement BY his gem pictures.
These are admirably named, for the likeness is
transferred in an instant and the impression is
invariably correct. Four, eight Or sixteen of them
can be taken for a dollar, and are enclosed in card
frames OF different sizes. The gem picture is
taken by a new process that is quite popular in
the northern cities, and is extensively used for
carte de uisaes. Mr.. Mundy has had a long expe-
rience in this business, and the pictures furnished
by him are finished in the best manner known.
His ateher, on King-street, is supplied with all the
necessary conveniences, and the sample pictures
show at once that they are indeed gems.

TIE PHosPHATEs OF SOUTH CARoLINA.-Some ad-
dl.:onal specimens OF this valuable material, from
the Ashley River beds, was to be seen yesterday
at the book establishment of s. G.. Courtenay, Esq,
on Broad-street, taken from the plantation OF d..
L. Toomer, Esq. on the western bank OF the river
in ST. And rews Parish. Continual Developments
attest the richness and Importance OF this dlscov-
ery, and the placid and beautiful stream OF the
Ashley, which has been always so much admired
by Carolinians, promises ere long to be somewhat
disturbed by an increased visit OF water craft,
which will transport this important fertilizer to
the city, where it will be prepared for transporta-
ton to all parts of the country. The new compa-
nv. with Prof. F. S. Holmes for President, we are
glad to see are in the way OF taking early advan-
tage of the good fortune which has betallen them,
and advertise in the News for one hundred able
bodied hands. Besides the promise OF being a
great financial success, these .arge deposits OF
phosphqtes are looked upon with extraordinary IN
terest by men of science.

STRAWBERRIES IN DECEmER.-The Augusta pa
pers mention the receipt of large and luscious
strawberries, grown this month IN Hamburg.
The patch was cultivated by Mr.. Hit, a gentleman
nearly eighty-oight years old. When properly
rotated, strawberries can be obtained every month
in the year. but this is seldom done, and the octo-
genarian deserves great credit for his horticulture
STREET IMpRovENnNTs.-The Improvements III
the streets of the city have been frequently alluded
to in the columns of the News, but the change Is
so gradual that by the unthinking it would be ui-
noticed. Several streets that were before almost
impossible have been restored to their former good
looks, the sidewalks raised and the pavements
filed in. Among the recent improvements, those
now in progress on the streets leading from East
Bay to Union wharves, is not unworthy OF note
These streets were once furnished with 4 plank
road, but time and pilfering have caused the DIS
of many of the planks, and the Street
Inspector determined to have a corduroy ROAD tna'
removed and the street repaired. Inc
laborors are now busily engaged in this under
taking and will soon make these streets equal to
any in the city. Before the var this was a great
thoroughfare for the travel to the uptown wharves,
and though the business is not as brisk as 1t was
in those days, yet the streets will be prepared Tor
any emergency and will be more serviceable than
in their present condition.

TEE WIDOWS Home BAzAAR.-The Bazaar last
night presented even more than its usual attrac-
tions, and was attended by a large number of per-
sons, who took advantage of the fine weather and
the conveniences offered by the street cars to pro-
long their stay to the closing hour. There have
been few fairs in this city that have been more
popular than the Bazaar, for, aside from its charita-
BILE object, the arrangement Of the different tables,
the decorations, and the articles offered for sale,
show that the ladies have entered upon their work
with a zeal that must insure success. The ladies
of Richmond and Baltimore hearing Of this Bazaar,
and learning its object, were liberal in their dona-
tions, and some of the most attractive articles
we're furnished by them. Although the rooms are
small, and it would seem almost impossible to
make any display, each table is conspicuous, while
there is sufficient space for the promenaders. The
ladies who have undertaken the charitable task of
providing homes for the loved ones Of our dead
soldier-boys deserve great credit. They arc labor
ing in a god cause, and there are few who will re-
frain from contributing their mite. Tn Bazaar
will DC opened again tonight, when the drawings
for tbs prizes will take place.

Gold closed at 1873. The Gold Exchange Bank

The demand for Government shows no decrease,
but is active in all departments The miscellaneous
shares are neglected and hardly enough is done in
them to keep them in memory Pacific Mail sold at
1881 a 1921, and Atlantic at 1O2IGlO3. The general
share market is irregular aud tends downward. The
balance sheets of roads, sent for the information of
Directors do not confirm the reports of decreased
expenses but prove that if many roads now selling
at high prices can pay interest sinking funds for
the next three months, they will exceed their
present premium. Ii is this state of things which
makes the market stagnant and overc0mes the
crop argument As the Summer advances it is
probable that prices of stocks will shrink, the crops
expand and the Autumn speculation commence at
lower prices than those current. After the call
prices are unsettled and Erie sold at 59i The market
hinges upon this stock and its fluctuations are closely
observed The market closed heavy and dull ut quo

Ii appears from official document that in 1864 there
were France In every 10000 marriages, no less than
lG7 between relations. THIS proportion has been con-
stantly increasing since 1861 when it was only 1913 In
10000. such marriages propOrtionally much more
frequent in the Department OF the Seine than in the rest
Of France and in the country than in towns The

the lowest figure since ls In France the percentage OF
men who read Is 27s5 that of women 4l45 the
general erage being 3e6. There has, however, been
great Improvement In tins respect 1858, when the
proportion was 1922 per cent. The Improvement is
greater in the country than in the towns the latter being
probably better provided with schools than the former
coupled with greater inducemeut TO learn As 10 the In

"BEYOSD THE MIssIssIPPI::" A Com
llete History Of tie Neg States and
Territories, from tie Great Ri0er to tie
GTeat Ocean, by Albert D. Richardson,
Is the lille of a handsome volume just is
sued by the National Publishing Compa-
ny, Davenport, Iowa. The Authors long
and varied experience in the little known
and interesting regions of the Far West.
furnishes the valuable material FOR this
work. Mr. Richardson is widely known
as one of our most brilliant journalists
and writer's. No other Author has trav-
eled over so much of our vast western do
mains, and we know of no one who can
so we'll describe what he has seen. He
is always interesting, generally amusing,
and, better still, invariably truthful.
The volume before us is accompanied
by an accurate and minute map of the en-
tire region beyond the Mississippi, and is
elegantly printed and profusely illustrated
with over two hundled engravings from
original photographs and sketches from
the pencils of Bierstadt, Mast, Hennessy,
barley, Fem, Stephens, Forbes and other
eminent artists, which are really beautiful
and worthy of examination as specimens
of art. Those who wish for authentic in
formation Of the resources, condition and
prospects of the Western and greater half
of the continent. within few years 20 be
sown thick with civilized States, rich in
all the elements of greatness, should con-
suit this most valuable work.
1t is credit both to American art and
authorship, aud is not only the most val
liable work from Mr. Richardson's pen,
but by far the best and most complete
history of the great West ever issued.
Its descriptions are photographicaIly WV
i'd. II blends information, pathos, fun.
and legned with full practical and minute
accounts of the farming, mining, trading,
railroad building and other great interests
and resources of our much talked of,
though heretofore little known, new
States and Territories.
1t is the product of vast labor, in travel
and personal observation, and is destined
to have an extraordinary sale. 1t is sold
only by subscription, and is just such a
book as persons seeking to act as agents
should add to their list.
