HARMoSEoNs.-This talented troupe Of young
Charlestonians performed yesterday to fair audi
| cncc. Tho inclemency OF tho weather deferred
mnny from attending, but those who wero
present testified their appreciation of tho witicHms
and singing, by long and loud applause The
troupe seem to have an inoxhaustible
repertoire, for thcy advertise nm entire change
OF the programme overy night. They will give
tonight an amusing burlcsque, to which all who
love hearty laugh should so. Tho funny man of
tho party not only succeeds in exciting laughter,
but his jokes arc not stereotyped, and evidently
como from IN original wit. On Saturday night
most persons arc rolioved from business engage
ments, aud if they want to store their mind with
food for funny reflection, we adyise visit to the
Harmonious.
THE RIoH1s OF THE TELEGRAPH Co1RANy.-Tho
action of Judge BRYAN in the United States Court
in deciding that the Telegraph Company should
produce in Court messages that had passed over
their wires, Inns excited considerable comment
among the community, as it is blow at CONNER
cia, social and general business rolations which
haro heretofore always been kept secret Tho
protest OF Mr. D. O'KERRE was presented by hs
counsel and the caso argued in its different bear
ings by both MIR. OCosNoR and MIR. SnIoNs. They
stated that In other States the Company had mover
hln rIrn1 b L1.-
public Court, and in caHes whon it was done The
dispatches wcro only handed to the Judge who
decided that tho testimony must not bo given to
either party.
II Judge BRYAN's decision ia to bo taken as
precedent, it will destroy the businoss relations
now existing bctwoon merchants, for no one will
use the wires whom thoy havo no certainty whether
they can bo kept private or not. We hope tho
company will not consider this decision as final,
but II any future occasion should arise will con-
test 1t in Superior Court
