NATIONAL BANK OF SOUTH CAROLINA IN CHAnLEs-
Tos-It win be remembered that subscriptions to
the capital stock of this bank were made in this
city in February last to the extent Of 573 shares
the rest of the capital being promised from abroad
OWING however, to the distrust created by the es-
tablishment Of military governments in the South
ern States, capitalists declined to risk their money
here, and the project, although not entirely aban-
doned, has been postponed to q more propitious
time Meanwhile all subscribers who may wish to
Withdraw their subscriptions can do so and receive
back the inataEnent Of FIVE dollars per share, by
calling at the odfce Of WILLIAM B. HERIor d Co..
No. 9 Broad street, and surrendering the Commits
sioner's receipts.
EAST BAY-The workmen have been busy for
some days In Widening and Strengthening this
street; but these preparations are now completed,
theproper alignment has been made, and we will
soon see East Bay in better condition than it has
appeared for years. This movement had been con-
templated for some time, and the paving Of the
street was delayed until the work was completed,
but the contractor has already ornamented the
street with piles Of stones, and operations will be
commenced in . few days. The same good signs
are visible in Broad street, and from the known
energetic character Of the contractor, We can con-
Adently predict that both Broad and East Bay
streets viii be covered with firm layer OF cobble
stones before the summer is over. z

A ytcrM or MHPIAcED CoNFDNcE.-A fond
ness Sor pets Is o weakness Of human nature, but
they are generally chosen from the canine or
feline species, and haya sufficient intelligence to
know the hand that earesses them. There are,
however; some persons who prefer 10 lavish their
kindness ON animals or reptiles that require con-
adorable training to make them tractables and
who never become thoroughly tanned. This con-
duct Is TO be expected from enthusiastic natural
ists :; but when private individuals undertake to
control these beasts, and TO train them up in the
way they should go, they find TO their sorrow that
dogs delight to bark and bite, other animals have
the same propensities. A gentleman in this city
spent much time and labor in endeavoring to edu-
cate young alligator, and hadsucceeded in over

was able TO caress and pet 1t, and could even car

beast forgot its benefActor, and, while theowner
mas feeding it, turned and bit his hand severely.
Proper remedies we're soon applied, and the wound

I. THs aRkM GRoPs OF THE SouTH.-The' new
--r'rf 49, - - ~
ewheat nom Georgia, recently shipped nom this
port, has made its sppearauce ON the New York
/, Corn Exchange, and has caused some excitement
famong the grain merchants Of that city. The inn
precision among the business men is that the
.ripening OF the harvest win advance northward at
the rte Of twelve miles day, and in the tide
water regions Of Virginia the harvest will COM
mence about the 18th inttant. New Southern
whess and four wiz soon be in the Northern mar
skets. The Norfolk Day Book remarks that
COTTON tobacco and sugar, therefore, bid fAir to
become secondary considerations in compari-
son with the grain crops. We are informed that
wheat; which is shown 10 be Of Q superior quality
DO that raised at the North, can be cultivated in
comparatively short season and with few lsborers.
We notice that Southern -four always commands
the highest price In the Northern cities, and it's
production is unlimited in all the Southern coun-
, nv. II the large plantations were divided into
small farms emigration would eventually largely
supply the want OF negro labor, and the usual
crops would probably then be made to pay. But
theaueation at present is, how to make the most
and the best Of the labor now on the ground; and
this il be answered by devoting the best lands in
tie South to crops that can be EASILY raised, and
which now sre in the largest demand.
