JANUARY MAGAzINEs.--Messrs.
Duffie & Chapman have presented us
with New Year numbers of the above
highly priced magazines.
CONE TO GRIEF. Jim. Singleton,
q colored man, who has been arrested
on several occasions for obtaining
property by other means than pur-
chase, was overhauled by Chief Rad
cliffe, yesterday, and lodged in the
lookup, charged with robbing tho
poultry-yard of Mr.. M. David. AS
the lock was broken, Jim. will have
hard road to travel.
The Charleston papers failed to ar
rive by mail last night. We are in
debted to Mr.. Cudworth, Of the
Southern Express, for a copy Of the
Ne,cS.
BURGLARY. The residence of Mrs.
NJ. J. Yates, on Pcndleton street,
near Richardson, was entered by
burglars, on Thursday night, and
robbed of clothing, silvcr-warc and
oven crockery. The entrance was
effected through the window, and
the rogucs even locked the doors,
and kept the inmates prisoners tenn
porarily. No clue to the pcrpetra-
tors of the outrage.
The FIRST Snow OF THE SEASON.
The weather for the past day or two
has been unsettled. and particularly
unpleasant; but yesterday capped the
climax. Early in the morning, the
house-tops presented an uniform ap-
pearance, and tho "beautiful snow"
was whirling through the mir in a
manner to tickle the little folks
hugely. But we agree with the
Herald man, that the infatuated indi-
vidual WHO relieved his over -joyed
imagination with poetical effusion
on the subject Of snow, asserting
that the beautiful snow it can do
no wrong" and that
The town is alive and its heart is
To welcome the coming OF beautiful
snow,
Shonld be compelled to trudge
through the streets Of this town dur
ing several hours after such snow
storm as that which visited this region
yesterday. On second thought, how
ever, it might be claimed that the
snow in itself was we'll enough, but
there were rain and hail accompany
ing it, and high, cold wind blowing
into the eyes and noses and ears, and
twisting the raiment OF pedestrians,
who generally, with rather unwar-
rantable ill temper, rallied at the snow
"a the sole cause of their discontinue.
1he streets and sidewalks were rem
dered, of course, exceedingly un.
pleasant for bipeds and quadrupeds.
Taken as whole, the weather was
not of character which could posi-.
bly, fill poetic soul so much as to
suggest:
Oh, the snow. the beautiful snow!
Filling the sky and the earth below;
Over the house-tops, over the street,
Over the heads Of tho people you
meet,
Dancing,
Flirting,
Skimming along
Beautiful snow! it can do no wrong.
Flying to kiss fair lady's cheek;
Clinging to lips in frolicksome freak;
Beautiful snow from the Heavens
above,
Pure as an angel, gentle as love.
The fact is, that tho fair ladies who
were out of doors were very few, and
those who were out muffled them
selves as much as possible to keep
the snow from their fair checks and
lips, and evidently regarded the
freaks of the snow as anything but
frOlicsome HoWeyer oftor tbo

DAN. CAsrELLo AGAIN.-The mimi
table Dan, with his camels and ele.
CANT chariot, learned ponies, mules,
etc., will make their appearance on
onr streets this morning, about IL
o'clock. 1t is hardly necessary to
speak of the performance under the
canvass, because our citizens general
ly know what to expect from Dan. s
reputation; but the following from
the Savannah News, will show how
he is appreciated elsewhere:
THE CIRCUS. There was another
grand outpouring of the masses at
the circus last evening, and Napoleon
Dan. s. star troupe of performers de-
lighted one of the largest audiences
ever assembled under canvass. The
Eastern scene, entitled The Halt in
the Desert. in which the camels were
introduced, was one of the great fea-
lures of theevening, and was received
with particular favor. Mr.. Charles
Fish and Signor Sebastian, the cham
pion bareback riders, gave one of
the finest exhibitions of equestrian
ism ever witnessed. Mr.. James
Cooke proved himself to be one of
the greatest riders and vaulters in
the country, and was loudly applaud
ed. The lady riders acted their parts
well, and Mile DeBerg, the pheno-
mena equestrienne, was particularly
good.
''Dau. CASTILLO, the prince of iok-
lists, was in the ring, full of fun,
ever ready with his witticisms and
wise sayings to tickle the audience.
His mules and trick-ponies went
through theirvarious feats admirably;
and were better in this lire than any
animals that we have seen in other
shows. i
"The whole troupe is composed of
some OF the best performers in this
line in tho country. 1t attracts large
audiences, and possesses the faculty
of knowing how to please them. In
fact Nixon, CASTILLO and Howe, are
whole team; they understand their
business, and have brought out one
OF the best shows that ever depopu-
latedslalmost every house in Savan-
nah, for several successive evenings.
The Herdld's Yokohama letter is
dated October 25 The Mikado was
crowned at Kiotto, OH the 18th, but
no Foreigners were ir:;.cd to witness
the ceremony, owing to the ancient
customs, which forbid foreigners en-
tcring Kiotto. The civil wor was still
raging violently.
The residence of Mr.. FL. r.. Mas
sey, on Catawba River, York County.
was destroyed by fire last week. 1t
IS said S3, 700 in currency was burnt.

Weston having failed in making
time, has given up his "big walk

cere sorrow for The loss Of their favor
ite spiritual father. The funeral pro
cession moved at II o'clock, and EN-
braced nearly ali the Catholic socie-
ties of.the city. The hearse was mag
niicently decorated and drawn by
four elegant black horses, and guarded
by a squad of Irish rifles in full dress,
with reversed rifles.
Five bands furnished the music,
AMI the procession was more than a
mile in length. The remains were
thus escorted to the depot, placed in
a car specially provided. and conveyed
to Calvary Cemetefy, when they were
committed TO earth.
There seam5 &c. be some doubt
whether the death of Mrs. Augusta
Dickens, the sister in-law of Charles
Dickens. resulted from premeditated
self destruction, or from the indiscreet
use of morphine.
She had been In the habit Of using
the drug for some time past for neu-
ralgie pains, aud a few davs before
her death she hal borrowed a book
of a neighber which treated Of poi
sons. and had read it carefully, so
that she must have been pretty we'll
informed upon the character of the
poison she was still using. There was
no seeming reason for committing the
deed. Although poor, she was beyond
the reach of want, and had only the
day before received a remittance of
certifcate of deposit for 800 from
some friendly source.
The verdict of the Coroner's jury
was rather Ambiguous. It was tha
deceased came to her death By an
overdose of morphine, administered
by herself while in a state OF mental
alteration. This verdict, II it means
anything, would Indicate the belief
of the jury that she committed sui
eide; still her friends believe her
death resulted from an accidental
cause. Mrs. Dickens was buried
to day. Fer children viii be care
fully provided for.

than the platform so long defended
By General Butler and Mr.. Stevens,
and, in some respects, by Senator'S

worse than the Indianapolis Republi-

multitude Of foolish things during the

longer potential. During the war it's
"On to Richmond was mischievous
to such an extent thar the people will
hesitate long time before they act
upon its suggestions again. It's fnan-
cial " On to Richmond" policy-when
it declares that the way to resume spe-

treated as an absurdity so preposter-
Gus that we do not believe there is a
solitary public man, journal or bust
ness man ef the slightest pretension,
but what scout IS at it with more or
less manifestations of contempt.
