Wrote a communication to HenTy and Latany Miller, informing them that they are required to support their families that their wives aud children have no claims on their former masters, arid can look; to no one else than the husband and father for support. 1 T Tom Shines, (freedman) states that he made an agreement with a gentleman in Robeson county to work and gather his crops, for which he was to receive his subsistence,' quarters, and, when tue crop was gathered, jone-third of them. He Las now been driven froui the farm, and the owuer refuses to pay hi'm f orchis' labor. , Action.

Mayor's Court, Commiuioaer Kbackle" forO, Majror prelem presiding Septem ber 7th But a small number appeared before his honor the mayor yesterday morning. Example has had its effect, and drunken men are not so com mon around the streets as they'weie a short time ago. When the authorities punish moral delinquencies in such an effective and decided manner as this court has of late it is presumaw ble that there will be less of it, and so much for the Ood of OUr citv. His hnnnr dna tint liVo as he says, that poor loafers should be quartered on the town, as the townvcan't afford it, and when a man gets drunk and is brought out of the streets to lodge in the prison and has no money to pay for his lodging it is a decided burden upon the treasury for which there should be some relief. A workhouse is the institution now wanted in this community, and the sooner one is got up the better. Charles Gordon, (colored,) acquired, as he thought, some abandoned wood, but it turned out it had an owner who was anxious to recover it. He signified the same to Charley which made Charley become uprorious, and the police men being in the vicinity silenced Charley's vituperation and placed him in a position where his noisy tongue would not disturb the good people. Charley and the property owner were both fined $2 50 for kicking up a row. On several occasions of late Mark Craffy has interfered with the peace and quiet of his neigh borhood by indulging in the delectable practice of getting drunk and whipping his wife; but human nature can't stand everything, and when at last Mark carried the thing too far, he was brought up with a round turn, and had to pay $25 for his frolics. In yesterday morning's issue we , noticed the case of a policeman charged with being drunk and shooting at a colored person, wherein the policeman was suspended from duty. The case came up again this morning for another hear ing, and the man was acquitted from the charge and returned to duty. A poor unfortunate contraband named "Jim," who made his appearance a few mornings since was again brought up for drunkenness and va grancy. He certainly is insane, or else is so much affected by delirium tremens that there should some place be found where a cure may be effected, as the poor devil is, in our pinion, actually unconscious of what is going on or what is doing around him. Texas, Oregon and California. We are aw&re that on the map of North America these places, or provinces, or states are located a great distance from us ; but we also know that we have precincts in our own vicinity, nay, even within our own town, that are distinguished by these titles. Texas is situated on the north side of the Wilmington and Weldon railroad and west of 4th street. It has many attractions, and has a particular notoriety' from the effect of it-attractions, as the police court's record can fully justify. Oregon lies east of Fourth street beyond the railroad, and though not pos sibly so notorious as Texas, yet it has a claim to renown from the indiscriminate character of its inhabitants and the rather unenviable name they have established, being accounted as good thieves as any in Christendom. Oregon is gen erally known as Newtown. California, or Pig eon Hill, is a delicious locality in an entirely different portion of the town, and is a refuge for those of the gentle sex to exercise their calling in, and an harbor for misguided indi viduals of a marine tendency to rest their weary limbs and get rid of their superfluous green backs, in fact of all the backs they have. A travel through each of these precincts is not by any means an easy undertaking, as you run the risk of being either poisoned, robbed or decoyed, and you don't know what else. Keep clear of them. Pumps and Cisterns. We are pleased to be abl6 to inform the public of the clearing out and the putting in proper order the pumps and cis terns of the city, under the direct superintend ence of Capt. Paul McGreal. When they are properly in condition for all public purposes it will undoubtedly be of great benefit-to our peo ple.; Persons living, for instance, in the vicinity of Front and Market streets find it quite dim cult (unless they have wells or cisterns in their yards,) to obtain water for ordinary purposes- the hydrant at the market house hardly ever being in working order, and the whole depen dence is on that one in front of the Globe ba Iqon. The placing of the pumps and cisterns in proper trim will merit the thanks of lhe com- njuhity. f Restaurant. In another column will be of the reoneninz of tlUUstaurant attached to Webb's Saloon, on Market street. This establishment has lately kLU rfiMftd throuehout, and furnished with awvM a,.---- tj every necessary comfort and convenience services of one of the best cooks in the country have been engaged, so that patrons of the es tabiishment may rely upon having their wants supplied to the last extent.

Outside of government trains ko u in onr town a greater uispmjr V w I prosperity of the city warrants, newowi that grain is high, but hay is fair and pumpkins are cot outrageous; so we imagine a person may keep his poor quadruped comfortable, at least, and for the sake of humanity do s all ye owners. Ahcskmkxts. Our city is full of people, transient and otherwise, and there is a great lack of amusement. We wonder why there is not something produced as we have very fine music in the community, a number of profes sionals and an elegant theatre to make a display in. Somebody make a demonstration, for there are a great many persons wandering around every night who do nothing but patronize the saloens, and grumble because there is no where else to go. White Labor.- An enterprising gentleman has just arrived from the north bringing with him twenty white laborers, whom he meditates taking to Edgecombe county, where, with the auxiliary aid of one hundred freedmen, he hopes to turn out an excellent crop of cotton next season. Under present circumstances encour agement should be given to all white labor to immigrate south, to experimentalize on the-sub-ject of wffether cotton, rice, sugar and tobacco cannot as well be cultivated, in as great perfec tion b,y the whites as by the blacks Market House Saloon. In our advertising columns Madison & Grant advertise the above Saloon and Restaurant. It is indeed a well kept establishment, supplying in the way of edibles all the market affords, and providing the best of liquors at the bar. Everything n most reasonable terms. In Health Again. Capt. Phelps, U. S. N., whom we have chronicled as being seriously ill, has at last recovered from hs illness and re turned to duty as commandant of this naval station. Tlie Earthquake in the West Remarka ' ble Phenomena. The earthquake in the Mississippi Valley, on the 17th, agitated the river violently in the vicinity of New Madrid. The water'seemed to rise in a body sevfiral feet high, and 7n- forced backward up stream. The current was actually stopped during the tew seconds .the earthquake continued. The shock occurred a little before nine o'clock in the morning, and was also perceptible in the city of Mem phis, but only to those in the huuses, while those in the street scarcely noticed it. The occupants of the upper stories hastened down to terra jirma with lrightehed alacrity. A writer in the Memphis Commerctakof the fol lowing day writes: "Many personal incidents are related, all . interest, yet of ereat similarity, with the of single exception of the impressions derived as to the direction of the 'wave In one office a framed showcard, leaning. agrainst a south ern wall, was thrown northward, and a gen tleman sitting at a northern window felt him self involuntary inclined to pitch out on to the sidewalk. In another office, on Second street, a piece of paper, tacked over aopen ing on the" west, filled and refilled, like a sail, as if the atmonphere was affected by a force moving from west to east. In other place?, gas ourners vipratea ana loose partitions swayed rapidly backward and forward, but usually in the direction which they would most readily take upon any unusual convul sion of the earth. "It is theorized by some, that the internal expansion or explosion of gases, or combus tion of igneous materials, supposed to occasion earthquakes, assumes a 'wavy' motion and straightforward direction ; by others, that the oscillations are equal in force and irregular in direction, giving to the shell of the earth, and sublunary things in general, a rotary as well as vibratory motion. But, without attempt ing to dip into the science ol these wonderlul and fearful phenomena, we will simply add that, on this occasion, the city of Memphis? got a pretty effectual shaking up, though certain ly not one at . all equal to our deserts. . We have heard ot' ao serious damage oemg none, with the exception ol several chimneys in dif ferent parts of the city which lost their cen tres of gravity and fell with a crash, while several walls were cracked and a considera ble amount of plaster dislodged from ceilings. "This portion of the Mississippi Valley has experienced similar shocks on several occa sions before, tne last occurring about two ana a half years ago ; but this exceeds all others in severity, urless,as some, old citizens relate, we should except the earthquake ot ltf-ld, ana, of course, the frightful convulson of 1811, so calamitous in -its effects further up the river, in the vicinity of isew Madrid. As to the duration of. the shocks experienced yesterday, reports do not entirely concur, but it was probably not less than two minutes and a half tfrom first to last." The South Carina Railroad. We we.-e" kindly furnished on yesterday with a copy of the following telegraphic dis patch, which contains very acceptable news to travelers and merchants : Kingsville, Aug. 31. H. T. Peak, General Superintendent : Our train crossed the Congaree river at 20 minutes to 5 o'clock. Respectfully, W. T. McKEWN, Superintendent S. C. R. R. The bridge then is finished and the links between Lewisville and that point on the road where the interruption of rail agaiu commen ces, and which i- nftecn miles this side of Co lumbia, are completed. There rem . in- to be constructed. that portion of the road last men tioned, and which will occudv until lhe first 7 X of November, and the seciion h ing between the preent terminus of the road at or nesir Orangeburg and Lewisville, which section will occupy three week in its construction. With the present energy of the superinten dent and his assistants unimpaired, we have reason to expect that the trains will run throtigh to Columbia uninterruptedly ny the middle of November.

Courts De- From the Charleston Courier, September i.) Major General Gillruore and SufF, who ac companied General Meade on a visit to the interior of the State, as far as Columbia, re turned yesterday evening by the Northeast ern Railroad. General Meade and his party t iok the Wilmington and Manchester Railrad cars at Florence, S. C, for Wilmington, en route on his return North. The party, on leaving here last Friday, took theNortheastern Railroad, and, notwith standing the delay in the examination of all the military posts on the route, including Darlington, Sumter , and Florence, reached Columbia Sunday where they were met by his excellency Governor Perry., A very plea sant and satisfactory interview took place, re sulting in an agreement and the partial resto ration of civil power through the entire $tate, by the full and complete establishment of the civil courts for the trial of all cases except those of freedmen and persons of coior. In all cases of the latter, and where the testimo ny of colored persons is necessary, the1 pro vost marshal courts are, for the present, to have exclusivy cognizance and adjudication. All cases between white persons are to be hearJ and adjudicated by the state court s, municipal authorities, or civil officers, Unde r and according to tke laws of the state. Th e civil courts are to be opened under the di rection of his excellency the governor, and the civil and muLi;ipa officers are to b-;per mitted to resume the.r o ial !uti.s dis charge them without interruption. During the interview, Gov. Perry sp ike in warm terms of commendation of the. action and proceedings of the courts lately estab lished, by order of General Gillmore. Gen eral Meade expressad himself I1 pleased with the condition of affairs in South Caroli na, stating tbat everything was working to his entire satisfaction, and it would be his pleas ing duty to report the fact to the department at Washington. With the result of the interview our citi zens have every cause for congratulation. Al though civil power is not yet fuMy restored, martial law and the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus still reins ining, it is evident that' the governmont is anxious to complete the work of restoration as rapidly as possible. Geneaal Gillmore and St iff left on the: stea mer Coit last evening, for Hilton Head. THE ELECTIONS IX SOUTH CAR OLINA.

From the Charleston Courier, September 5.1 We congratulate our citizens on the quiet and order which prevailed yesterday during the election. There was an entire absence of all excitement or disturbance. The delegates elect are, many of them, well known for their consistent conservatism, and all of them have, by their acts, accepted events of the present and will aid in the res toration of the state. W e append the result. One of the most pleasing-features of the election was the non-interference anl . total absence of the military from the polls. Our citizens are indebtbd to General tiennet for this admirable arrangement. LU exten led h is orders that no soldiers or guard should be in attendance unless especially requested by the managers. Happily, nothing occurred to ren der such a request necessary, and the citi zens were lett to the five, untramelled ex pression of their choice. The following were elected : Charles Mac beth, II D.

It will thus be secure from the interruptions which t. might orcur were it to pass through the pos sessions of any one of the semi-barbaroas na tions which populate the southern portions of ' Asia. -r r Kr EUROPEAN GOSSIP One of the Paris journals relates an inci dent which, If not true, deserres to be so, and, at any rate, reads moro like 'a dramatic invention than the fact which 'it probably may be. It is said that a Parisian gentleman, who may be called Mr: Zero, in the absence of his real name, received One fine morning, a delicate rose tinted billet dottx, informing him that if his heart was free and he had as much sentiment as wit, he should enter a car riage which would be in waiting for hitn at nine the next evening, close to bis house. To the driver he must say "fortune,", and reply mysteTy,,, would assure him', that he was right. It concluded with the observation that if he did not keep this appointment, it would be because there existed a;more fortu nate woman, who had won his fair affection. I shall euvy her," the fair writer said, 'but hate neither her nor you.' The epistle was signed "Gabrielle." Mr. Zero, who is a mar ried man, read it and smiled gentlemen usu ally smile when they have assurance bf ha? ing made a conquest, lie finished his break fast, and proceeded to the head of the police, v ith whom he had an interview. Nine o'clock in the evenrner arrived, and M. Zero kit his house, as the clock struefc Near his door stood a handsome nrivate enrriatm- The driver challenged him HVbol goes there?" "Fortune." "And the counter sign ?' "Mystery," "All right," was the word, and M. Zei o entered the vehicle, in which. a veiled lady si t. '. He desired the Jehu to drive to the nearest poste," or police sta tion, and when he arrived there .,tbe lady was handed out by a polite policeman, who transferred her. for the rema;nder of the night, to the custody of the person who htd charge of female prisoners. She slept soundly, was liberated next morning, because no one attended to make any charge against her, net returned homo in excellent smnts. There is a key to the enigma: Madam Zero was a jealous wile, who ingeniously had con trived a little plot to try her husband's fideU ity. lie recognized the billel doux as having ' been written by her, resolved to pay her off in tier own coin, had her taken up. under special arrangement with his' friend of the police office, for an attemr t..to disturb his conjugal .happiness, and thus delighted his wife and quietly avenged himself at the same time. Scribe would have turned this little incident into a charming vandeville, and Al exander Dumas might have spun it out into one of his eternal romances. It could have happened, if ever it did? happen, scarcely anywhere but in Paris. A Pans letter writer tells this story : "A curious scene took place two evenings back on thn Boulevard Beaumarchais. , A gentleman, an advocate, walking out, accom panied by his dog, an Italian grayhound of great beauty, suddenly missed the animal and retracing his steps, overtook a man of decent appearance with the dog in his arms. lhe thief bad already removed the collar with the owner's name nd address, and was endeavoring to stifle the dog's cries. Being a man oi great muscmar power, tne owner soon mastered the delinquent, and then offered him the choice either beinz consiznei to 'the police or of kneeling down in the street and kissing the dog. The thief, after some little hesitation, chose the latter alternative, and perfomed the ceremony in the midst of the laughter and jeers of the bystanders. Satis faction being thus given, the owner was wil ling to allow the offender to depart 'fa. peace. k.. 1. '77.. . , i mu puujo c iius uc line wiUlUf up lnSlStcU on takiog him before the commissary of po lice of the quarter. . The gentleman accom panied the paty to the ofBce,and when there explained to the Commissary thathe . had acted in virtue of an old law of the Bur gundian Parliament, never yet abrogated, containing (Tit. X , cap. art. 9) a disposition thus worded : ''If any man has stolen a grayhound (toltrahum), or a segusiave $eguHuv a pa ticular sort of hound used by the Gauls for' hunting the boar,) ora lurcher "(pettunca lum,) we ordain that'.'the guilty party be obliged to kiss the animal before thewhole people, or to pay fiy,e soli of gold.tot the mas ter of the dog, and two sols, of fine'." at4Tbe advocate concluded by interceding' for the culp'it, on the ground tbat he had sat isfied the conditions of the law, but the com - missary, recognizing4 VM man as an old ofr7 fender, sent him to the Prefecture 5.
