Tua HOLIDAY TKADIÍ.-As a general mle,

the most extensive and liberal buyers of holiday

goods do sot put off their purchases until the

stocks have become low aad the crowd so greatthat they are unable to make satisfactory selec¬

tions. Indeed, as we happen to know, some of

Ute most desirable customers in that branch of

trade are already on the lookout for souvenirs

of the coming season. Dealers who propose to

engage in it-and which of them does not*-

should therefore announce their attractions with¬

out delay, if they wish to reap an early harvest.

We need hardly add, what they already know,

that the advertising columns of THE NEWS, al¬

ways a reflex of tke business of thc city, are con¬

sulted now more than ever by t hose desiring bar¬

gains in any branch of trade.

REAL ESTAT« SALSS.-Mr. A. C. McGlUlvraysold yesterday several tracts of pine barren land

.in BL Stephen's Parish, aggregating 2S81 acres,

.aores, for $1000.Messrs. Lowndes ft Grlmball sold the house and

_gne streets, known as No. 18 Smith street, for

$8500._ _

A RUNAWAY CAB AND A SMASHUP.-Therailroad In Messrs. Bischoff & Co.'s store, thoughnot extensive, docs a heavy business. The sched¬ule ls frequently varied, bni the car is seldom

idle. Yesterday, while lt was being rapidly pro¬pelled through the store and worked by two Afri¬can power, it acquired suoh a momentum that ltwas Impossible to stop it, aud it came againstthe door at the terminus with a resistless forcethat broke through all barriers, scattered the

freight In every direction, and demoralized the

Africans. No lives were lost.

$ -.-:InicORATIOK PROSPECTS are brightening.

All the immigrants recently brought from Swedenby Mr. Feriow have been satisfactorily located In

Newberry County, and Mr. Perlow hlmsoir has

gone on a visit to Florence, Sumter and Orange-ourg, for the purpose of making arrangementsfor the passage and reception of more immi¬

grants. The Newberry Herald says : "Mr. F. W.Bmggeman, agent of immigration, now in NewYork, writes as that the prospect for securing agood class of German farm laborers is more fa¬

ctorable than heretofore, and that he can fill verymany more orders in the most satisfactory way."

FOUR HAW MAH. CARS.-The South Carolina^Railroad Company nave Just completed at their

workshops, ia this city, four new mall cars of an

.improved pattern, which wUi be put on the road

immediately. Tho cars are about ten feet longerthan the passenger cars in general use, and have

.compartments for the mall carrier and expressmessenger. The interior of the car is of Southern

pine, highly polished and varnished, and is fitted

up with every convenience. The facilities for as¬

sorting and distributing the mail will be greatlyincreased in these ears, and they will supply a

?want that has been toas felt. They will ron on

tate main road and Columbia and Augusta

BILL POSTING.-Tho habit of ornamentingfences; wails and sides of houses with enormousand often unsightly posters has grown to be a

nuisance, and it was found necessary io have theprohibition "stick no UlUa'» on every piece of

property tho owners wished to preserve from the

vandal hands of this class of advertisers. Forsou»time thia monition. Uko the famous "beware

of the dog," kept intruders from the sacred pre¬cincts; hut the community were not sufficientlyenlightened to please the street advertisers, andthey resorted to board fences built for that pur¬pose. Several Improvements have been effected.oa tho style and size of these boards, but thelatest wrinkle is a neat posting board, with an

arched top, that is placed against the sides ofShe buildings at the street oorners. Numbers of

these have been rocectly erected in the city, andthe uninitiated are now Informed of their in¬tended use.

single track, to be used jointly by the two roads

when finished. The Charlotte Road will contLiueto use the present bridge of thc South CarolinaRailrond until the new bridge is completed.

EXTRBMHLY FISHY.-The exuberant energyof Captain Jenks, the street Inspector, has boon

displayed to seme advantage on King-street, bythe endeavor to convert that thoroughfare into a

respectable place for vehicles. Ills ambition was

laudable and the end desirable: but though Kingstreet ls now a shell road aad a pleasant drive,the change has been accompanied by "an ancient

and a fish-like smell"-an aroma not in Lubln'sextracts, that renders the atmosphnre noxious,and, walking down oar Broadway, ls a trial to the

olfactories. Fortunately, the evil is not Irreme¬diable. Time can work wonders, and the new

shell road, like good wine, will Improve with age.

president, Hugh Ferguson, Bsq., by E. D. Wood-

raff, Jr., a member of the Weecacoe. and was re¬

ceived with warm thanks by the latter company.Resolutions appropriate to thc occasion, and ex¬

pressive of their obligation for the kindness ami

brotherly sympathy of the Palmetto, were passídunanimously and entered on the minutes."

"A GROSS INDIGNITY TO SOBTH CAROLINASBNATOHS.''-Under .nts heading the Radical pa¬per in Richmond, Va.^ays: "A gross outragewas perpet rated on the Otb instant at Clover HUIStation, on the Danville- Railroad, by the authori¬ties of that road, by ejecting from the cars threecolored State senators from South Carolina, andtreating them to Indignities. I nit ed States Sena¬tors Sawyer and Robertson and several membersof Congress from South Carolina, on their wayto Congress, were accompanied by three Statesenators or the same State, highly respectableoolored men, all bright mulattoes. Ttie&e latter

purchased first class tlcfceu at Columbia,and rode la a first class car through the re¬

constructed States of South and North caro¬

lina, without molestation ; but when they reachedthe Virginia line their troubles began. At Dan¬ville they were ordered ont of the ilrst-cla.>s car,but refused to leave it. There w^s a good deal ofexcitement, and no effort was at onco mad< to

eject them. On reaching Clover Hill Btatlou,however, two of them happened to get out to

obtain refreshments, and whoa they would haveentered again were refused admittance, andforced to take their places in a common cur. Thethird, Senator Wright, was tlieu ordered out, butpersisted la retaining his seat. At Clover Sta¬

tion, however, hy order of President Buford, oarinformant says, he was forcibly ami roaghlyejected, amid great confusion and excitement,and much to the Indignation of thc South Caro¬lina senators and members, lt is said there was

a lively time on board tho train." This is posi¬tively too bad. The Old D jmlnion uodls recou-

structlng.

A GREAT BILÍ. TO-NIGHT AT THE ACADEMY.-Manager Ford has certainly discovered the secretof how to draw crowded houses here: "mt whetherlt consists In the winning ways of thc witchingSisters who have already turned Hie heads of allyoung Charleston, or whether lt lies In thc inerra¬ble drollery or lll3hop. wi.3 makes the old a3 wellas young laugh untd the/ cry, is a point whichthe discriminating public must decide for itself.Whatever the attraction, the Academy-par¬quette, galleries and boxes-was again crowdedlast night, and enjoyment was written on everyface in the eager throng. Fra Diavolo. like everyburlesque that the company has as yet presented,was charmingly rendered-thc fair Bianche, Intop-boots, making so bright and taking a brigandthat the whole audience became her ^il'irig cap¬tives. A banjo solo .'rom : he sprite, little l-.'iU waa

applauded to the coho.And t!:cn there was i'.:<:<\ -firstBeppo and

then as Madam-.: Vanderpants-and as everybc Ijdid nothing bul lauîu while Bishop -T.ÍS "i sight,and as it ls Impossible to describe Ids Inagitableappcarar.ee, we ixrtirar. aid advise our readersby all means to see us ina.m ot Bishop as possible,If they would drive àu'.l curt- away.

.IThc Chapman Sisters aro to have tuelr jeneUl

this evening, and we uro sure that thc announce¬

ment will be enoQgh to crowd the Academy to its

utmost capacity. By far tah best bill of thc sea¬

son is to be presented, including Bucicstone's cap-ital comedy, "The Pet of the Petticoats," togct ne¬witt the classical burlesque of Lsion, which was

so splendidly produced on Mouday last. The

Sisters, as well aa Mr. Bishop, appear ia both

pieces, and we caa safely promise our readers arare treat.We have already alluded to tho ancestral claims

which the fair toneaclariee onjoy to oar oouside-ration. Fifty years ago their maternal grand¬mother, the famous Mrs. A. Brake, was the tragicqneen of the American s ¡age, and was ari especialfavorite of the Charleston audiences of thar. day.Their grandfather was the eminent actor, Sam

Chapman, who married a daughter of the tirstJefferson. And whoever bus seen the charmingyoung actresses must admit that their personalmerits in nowise anbeseem their histrionic lineage.Let them have a house to-night which will givethem m the futuro pleasant recollée:.oas or theirreception and substantial appreciation by the cit¬izens of Charleston."Aladdin" wlK be presented at the matinee

to-morrow-a glorious sight for the children.
