TWELFTH NIGHT.-Circumstances having
prevented the observance orthe Christmas festtv-
files at the Widows Home, 1t was determined to
revive an old English custom, and celebrate. the
twelfth night instead. The gentlemen who con-
stitute the advisory members Of the board lent
their hearty co operation to thescheme, and they
and their friends were wen represented, both by
their purses and their presence, on the occasion.
The parlors Of the Home were thrown open to the
inmates and the few invited guests, and at agiven
signal the folding doors opened, and Christmas
tree revealed, brilliantly Illuminated, and bearing
for fruit countless gifts. None were forgotten;
and distribution Of the various articles was bare
" concluded, when Santa Claus, gray, genial and
carrying pack loaded with toys and gifts, ap-
pesred on the scene. Few knew who was per-
>sonasing the character, bat it was done 80 com
pletely, and the disg lse was so perfect that the
mystery only enhanced the enjoyment. The even
ing closed as pleasantly as it had been tnsugu-
rated, and Twelfth Night will long be popular
theme among the children ofthe Home.

LADIES' FUEL SoCIETY-AN URGENT CASE.
regular meeting Of this society was held on
Saturday last, at IL O'Clock, at the Mutual Aid
Depository, In Chalmers street. The distributing
of1icers for the different wards OF the city made
their reports, after due consideration Of which
the ladies Of the Fuel Society regret being obliged
to call upon the citizens OF Charleston to aid
them in their charitable work. 1t has been found
impossible for them, with their present resources,
to keep up their distribution OF wood among the
poor Of the city, and after this month 1t will be
entirely discontinued, unless some aid from With
out is received. Their appeal at Christmas was
responded to by but one kind friend, and had 1t
not been for 5000 kindly given them by Mr.. Gage,
early In the season, they would not have been
able to accomplish as much in the way ofrellef as
they have already done. The severity OF the WIN
ter has made the applications for their bounty
more frequent and pressing than usual, and the
means Of the society have been managed in such
manner to dlnuse the greatest amount OF COM
fort. Did everybody contribute their mite: many
comfortless aud chilly homes Of the poor might
be male cheerful in this bitter weather. Contrl

The MURDER OF Mr.. DuBARD.--The follow
ing particulars OF the murder Of this estlmable
man, already reported by telegraph, are given by
the Columbia Phoenix:
1t appears that Mr.. Dubard left Columbia on
Thursday afternoon. for his home, about fifteen
miles above Columbia. About six miles from the
city Ills body was found, pierced through with
several slugs. The deceased was robbed OF his
watch and money, but the bundles in his buggy
were left untouched. 1t is supposed that he was
instantly killed; his coat was burnt with powder.
proving that the murderer stood very close when
the fatal shot was fired. The incentive Of the as
sassin was, doubtless, money. Mr.. Dubard was
an old and respected citizen OF RIchland, and
highly esteemed f,r his strong and reliable traits.
He was o leading member OF the Methodist
Church. and In his neighborhood was its main
stay. cruel deed depriyedh him OF his life: But
rs pious, God fearing old man, 1t Is 10 be pre-.
sumel that he was not unprepared for the quick
summons that came to him. His violent and
sudden death will excite general md genuine
sympathy. The assassin is not yet known, but
II Is to be hoped that the officers OF the law and
the friends OF the deceased will use every proper
means to fix upon the offender the responsibility
OF his atrocious crime. The marks OF hat feet were
distinctly seen about the body.
