Town ORDINANCES Is.-The Town -Commis
sioners have just issued new set of ordinances
under the new charter, and we think the citi-
zens of both town and surrounding country
will do well to read them Between building
town hall, which some people don't want
and there was never an enterprise that didn' t
meet with opposltion-making people repair
their uneven pavements, opening new Streets
abating the fsh-cart nuisance land others from
the "corners" aud muzzling the dogs the Com
miSiOners have kept many persons in hot wa
ter for the last six weeks or more, and they
have been talked about, abused, and even car
featured in lead pencil drawings but their work
goes bravey on. Had they the weight of the
whole government of the United States resting
upon them they could hardly be viewed
with more solicitude by some of the old fogies
who didn't vote for them, but who are wonder
fully afraid they will do something to render
themselves unpopular. The Commissioners
they think, are rather regardless of public opin
ion. But the Commissioners proceed with
the work they were elected to perform, and
have fully anticipated the opposition they would
meet with. This opposition they take as ar
evidence that they are doing their duty.

Practical JoKING.-A worthless fellow
who had been loafng around Dover, was taken
by some wags, Of MiddletOwn, says the Trans

The box was then taken to the depot, marked
" this side up, with care, " and labled "hog, "
and the freight, 200 lbs paid to {, Clayton to
the freight train, discovered the man, however,
and refused to freight the box. They released

The PEACH ESTIMATES. Fruit Grow
ers' Association, at Dover last week, in max
ing an estimate of the peach shipments, put
those for Smyrna (Clayton) at $50 900 baskets
We do not know the data upon which the AS
sociation made this estimate, but seems rather
small in comparison with those for other
stations, and with our shipments of two
years ago. In 81 our shipments footed up
10000 baskets by railroad, and it is now prob
able that the crop will be as large this year as
it was then if so our shipments must be in
creased considerably, we should suppose, owing
to the new orchards that have come into bear
ing, which must be considerably in excess of
the old orchards that have died out" Our
increase from the big crop of GA to that Of 81
was over one hundred per cent. We then ship
ped 10000 baskets. 1t is not presumed that
any such increase will follow this year, but that
there will be an increase, under a similar yield
is quite certain. An increase for other stations
Midletown for example. In '67 the shipmenti
from that station were $50, 900 baskets; the
coming crop is estimated by the Association a
l75,00o an increase Of 25,0O0 baskets. W.
Should suppose the increase for Smyrna would
be quite as great as the increase for Middle
town or other stations. We do not know th
actual shipments from other stations in 1867
but If they are as greatly at variance as the,
are between Smyrna and Middetown we shal
conclude that the Association arrived at its es
Inmates rather hastily.

Opening of the Academy.

The Charleston Academy of Music was
formally opened last night, and the chief
city OF South Carolina reioices in the pos
session Of q lyric temple worthy in every
particular of our people and our State.
1T needs not now TO speak of the tliiicu-
ties, dangers and embarrassments which
have been met and overcome. There is i'm
the simple fact that We record this day IL
mute eloquence more winning than words
an unwritten story of brain and muscle, of
unflaeging energy and patient toll. Tho
broad libcrality of an adopted child of
South Carolina, joined to the skill and dex-
tcrity of II Charleston architect and OF
Charleston workmen, have given to this city
an cdii're which has no superior even in
the metropolis favored of fortune, where
marble palaces and gildcd spires kiss the
evening sky. II is our own work-a monll-
mcnt of tho activity and OF the ingenuity
of our people.
The Academy Of Music is the first public
building OF Importance erected in Charles
ton since fiery tongues leapt from roof
tree TO pinnacle, from altar TO tlresidc from
the shores Of the Cooper TO the broad wa
ters of The Ashley And surely the thoughts
OF some who, rank above rank, gave life
to the glttcring horseshoe ycsternight, tra-
vclled back to the time when Charleston
was rich, and Carolina was free; not i'm
u spirit of gloom and discomfort, not in
doubt and mis1iying, but with feeling
that the brilliant scene around them was
welcome harbinger of the spring-time of
fortune-thc forerunner of long years Of
happiness and peace. II was indeed glo-
rious sight to see; sight to make the old
heart young, to brush the cobweb from
the brain, and to strike the roots of hope
deep into the bosom of despair. The Acade-
my OF Music is open. The play and players
