reception In Charleston. The seven performances
dncluding the matlnee) which they have already
given In our oity. have, on the whole, drawn lar
ger and more fashionable audiences than have
ever assembled here slnoe the good old days "be-
fore the war" The internal burlesque OF "Pluto''
was rendered with spirit on Saturday evening,
with the rich farce OF zone Thousand Mlliners
Wanted" as the afterpiece. This week We are to
have an opportunity Of seeing Bishop moro fre'
uueRtly In comedy. In which he ID as arou and IN
every way as effective as in buresque. Buck

some rather wild statements that were copied
into THs Eaws on Saturday:

OF the latter was severely. though not dangerous

wrestcd from him by the former. Daring theprO-
cress OF this fight there was considerable excite
ment In the crowd present, and guile large
number OF pistols were drawn, but there was no
shocking and no general row. By the action VI
mutual friends Nr. Warren waa prevented from
shooting Mr.. Watson, upon whom he had oea'l
drawn aud the difficulty was c3del without seri-
oas injury TO any one.
In q different part Of the town, prior to the
circus performance. a difficulty occurred beiweeu
Messrs. Wil!iaIn Murrell and James Ramsay, snIl
of The clerk Of the court, orgnstinS in Trivial
dispute as TO their respective manhood. kurrcil

that the wound was not necessarily fatal. al
though it was generally regarded as Of very s.
riols character, end the worst results were at-
pretended. Is was rumorcd yesterday thu, Mr..
Ramsay had died from the effects OF the wound
received, hut the report lacks confirmation.

fatal wound he uas lett st Graniteviile yestor-
