From the humblest of beginnings, lc rose, through che energy and perseverance of its founders, to a high-degree of usefulness and respectability. The destructive fire sf 1861 de? stroyed the library ot' the Society, amounting to many thousand volumes, and burned to the ground the flue building which was the crown? ing result of liberal donations and hard-earned accumulations. ? Not a book was saved. Not a record. Nothing now remains to the society but the lot on which their baU stood, and an investment of about one thousand dollars in stocks and bonds." How fiver, the friends of the Society were not discouraged, but nursed their resources until an opportunity offered to re-establish the so? ciety, and deem this the time to begin the work of placing lt upon a firm loan dation. With this view they call upon the citizens to attach themselves by membership, and to do? nate books, one or more, as they are best able to contribut?. The Society has now a place to meet and to deposit whatever may be dona? ted. The objects of this society, to cultivate a taste for reading, and supply the means there? for to apprentices and minors especially, yet for all who would avail of Its advantages, are such as must commend' them to our citi? zens, and we trust the appeal made by the so? ciety will meet a full and ready response. The gentlemen In whose hands is thc management of the society will, we feel assured, with any ?easure of co-operation on the part of our tizeas, restore lt to its former vigor and use Iness, and supply a desideratum In our city good public library. WM. GILMORE SIMMS. DE A. TH OF THE GE, EAT SOUTH CAE OLIN A NO VELIST. HU Life, Character and Writings. The Hon. Wm. Gilmore Simms, D. C. L., died at the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. Ed. Roach, In this city, at about 5 o'clock on Satur day afternoon. Mr. Simms had been in deli cate health for some time, but only a week be fore his death was well enough to Join In an excursion down the harbor. His strength, however, rapidly failed him, and on Thursday night lhere was no hope of his recovery. He remained conscious to the end, his last words being, "Not long ."' The bells of St. Michael's lolled yesterday-the solemn notes conveying to t he whole city the mournful tidings of the death of him who was the ornament and the pride of the State he loved so well. Wm. Gilmore Simms was born in this city on April 17, 1806. His lather was of Scoto-Irish descent, and his mother, Harriett Ann Augusta Singleton, was of a Virginia family which came early to South Carolina. While yet a child, he was left an orphan, and was thrown upon his own resources. For this reason his regular education derived small aid from the pecuniary means of his family, and he had little classical training ; but he acquired knowledge with an astonishing celerity, and was soon the posses? sor of a vast fund of miscellaneous Informa? tion. At eight he wrote verses, and at < Ighteen his self-acquired scholarship was aiready re? markable. No professor or college did for him one hundredth part ot what he did for himself. Mr. Simms was originally destined to the study of medicine. This pursuit jumped not with his tastes, and he chose the law by pref? erence, being admitted to the bar at the age of twenty-one. Law, however, was too te? dious for the acutely active mind of Mr. Simms, all whose inclinations lay in the direction of the pleasant paths of literature. His first ac? tive literary engagement was In the editorship of the Charleston City Gazette, a paper which opposed the doctrine of nullification. The Gazette was a failure, and Mr. Simms, its pro? prietor as well as editor, was a heavy loser. The effect was not unhealthy, for it caused Mr. Simms to devote himself, In earnest, to litera? ture as a profession. The literary debut of Mr. Simms was made In 1825, when he published a Monody on General Charles Cotesworth Pinckney. A volume of j nls poems followed "HT 1827, and Early Lays was published lu the same year. The warm reception given to his first efforts was highly gratifying to the young author, who thence forward, for more than forty years, applied himself to those pursuits In which he won fame for himself and honor for his native State. The publication of Atalantis in 1832, intro? duced Mr. Simms to the literary circles of New York. The next year the Harpers' pub? lished his first tale, Martin Faber, the Story of \ a Criminal, which at once attracted public at? tention. From thls-time, so uuiform was his career, that a few words will sum up the incidents of his history. A second marriage, to the daught? er of Mr. Roach, of Barnwell, his first wife having died soon after their union; a seat in the State General Assembly, where he made his mark; the reception of thc Doctorate of Laws from the University of Alabama; his sum? mer residence in Charleston and his winter home at Woodlands; these, up to the beginning of the war, are the few external Incidents of a career, whose events must be sought in the achievements of hands and brain. The elegant residence of Mr. Simms at Woodlands-a man? sion with equal wings and a fine front-was sumed down by Sherman's raiders In 1865. lt the same time an extensive library was vholly destroyed. But Mr. Simms returned ;o his general literary work with his old mergy, and was In harness almost to the lay of his death. The long roll of his lit? erary works is the noblest tribute that can JO paid to the memory of him who ls aptly Jtyled "the Walter Scott of tho South," and we ?opy from The Living Writers of tlie South, >y James Wood Davidson, the following re ;ord of the writings of Mr. Simms: 1. Lyrical and other Poems. A debut volume, ?Tritten previous to the author's twentieth year, ind published in Charleston, 1827. 2. Early Lays. 1827. 8.

A narrative poem, oncetved and written under the influence ef Don nan; the express aim being a poem tn the style T Byron's reckless heroic.

While ed tor of the Southern Quarterly Review, Mr. Simm wrote the greater part or several issues; and h always supplied the shortcomings of his con tr butors, by writing largely for every number whll he had editorial charge. He contributed llbei ally to various other periodicals-The Klckerboct er, Orlon, Graham's Magazine, Godey's Lady' Book, American Quarterly, and many others; tx sides editing the Southern Literary Gazette, Th?

The Cub of the Panther. A monntaln le genii; published lu serial in The Old Guard, 1869 Martin Faber, his first prose work, brough1 Mr. Simms fairly belore the public. The bool was decidedly successful, and Its success wa; richly deserved. The story of guilty love, o the cry of blood from the mute earth, of thc mysterious law by which the bloody hand of the murderer ls made to point to his own bosom; these things are shown with graphic power. From 3'ear to year, sometimes from month to month, he threw off his rapid series of fictions; now dealing with the aboriginal characters of American life; now depicting thc achievements of knight and infidel; now amid the glades ol Florida; now in the wild freedom of the West? over the whole wide range of Southern and Southwestern American life. But, as Mr. Da? vidson remarks, "He was most at home in the Revolutionary times, when war, and craft, and treachery, and love, and death, ruled the hour; or In the older and pre-revolutionary times, when the stalwart and sturdy Indian yet struggled with bloody hands for his erstwhile dominions, and yet hoped to wrest his lands from the pale faces." As to the high order of his ability as a prose writer, therejs no differ? ence ol opinion. Edgar Poe said of Afr. Simms: "fis has more vigor, more imagination, more movement and more general capacity than all our novelists (save Cooper) combined.'1 Duycklnck, than whom there ls no cooler critic, says ot Mr. Simms: "As a novelist he ls vigorous In de? lineation, dramatic in action, poetic in his de? scription of sccnury, a master of plot, and skilled In the arts of the practiced story-teller." tn every home in South Carolina the romances M Mr. Simms have found a pleasant resting pla'ce. Well might Mr. Davidson write thnt ff lille "Cooper has the advantage lu character? ization and plot, Mr. Simms hasclearly the ad? vantage in the energy of action, variety of iltuations, and, perhaps, lu literal truthlul ?ess of delineation." As a historiographer, Mr. Simms accom? plished Just what he proposed-a readable hls ory of South Carolina for the young, somc hlng of less .'immemorial dust and dignity" lian Ramsay and Carroll, and something of far ess research than Rivers. As a biographer, Mr. Simms produced four iredltablc volumes-enough, In themselves, to lave made the reputation of a man of less aote. As a poet, Mr. Simms wrote very largely. Be? tides his long poems-Atalantis, the Cassique )f Accabee, Donna Florida, and the Vision of tortes-lie wrote two dramas, and hundreds if lot thousands of lyrics, sonnets, ballads, odes, dylls, canzonets and other minor poems. Ata antis is generally considered the best of his ?arrative poems, as will be seen by the foliow ng extracts from an article published in the southern Literary Messenger for May, 1851. Thc writer, who is a Charleston gentleman of jreat culture and admirable taste, says: "A scholar of no meau attainments in Utera ure, and of cultivated critical skill, pronounced he 'Atalantis' of Mr. Simms not unworthy of :omparlsou, as a poem and a work of art, with he Immortal 'Comas' of Milton. Thc vigor and irlglnaltty of expression, the rervor and richness if imagination, the fulness of thought, the com uaud of language, the power and wide range of :onceptlon. united with the sorter graces of deep ind truthful sentiment, and of musical rhythm, vhich distinguish 'Atalantis,1 will also be found, n greater or less degree, to characterize all of he roe try of Its author. We do not mean to say hal Mr. Simms hos not published poetical trilles, vhich, penned merely as trines, make no pr?ten? tion to any high or peculiar merit, and do not ilaim to be, by any means, exponeuts of his pow ?rs and characteristics as a poet. * * * Chere are abundant evidences throughout the vritlngs of Mr. Stmms, and perhaps in none more han in his poems, of power to accomplish vastly nore than he has performed. Not that thc exist ng performances are crude, or the offspring a :ertain immaturity of genius; but they are such LS could only have emanated from the truest genl ls, while they are not the highest expression or he powers so evidently shining through them, ind which alone could have beta adequate to heir production. 'Atalantis' must be placed in he very highest rank of thc class or poems to vhich it belongs; but it ts not the loftiest and .randest order of all poetry, while the genius . vhich wa3 capable of producing lt, must, or ne ;es3ity, bc able to touch the very summit of poetl :alexcellency." Among the poetical works of Mr. Simms are many rare gems ol'thought and diction, but it cannot be sahl that lils poems are familiar in the mouths of tho people. The very copious? ness of illustration which sprung from the fertility of his fancy, was'llkely to weary the general reader, who tires of any long-contin ued demand upon his attention or discrimin?t lng Judgment. And the ease and fluency which he wrote tempted him to write over much. Those who knew him best knew he could do more than he had ever done, looked forward with confidence to the when his name-borne on the wings of mighty Epic-might be measured in busy Europe as In his native Carolina. But time and circumstance were wanting. That astonishing Industry and activity which re mained with him to the end gave him no rc pose, and when he appeared in public for the last time, the flow or thought and fancy was as ripe and fresh as when he first stepped into literary lire. To the buoyancy of the boy was Joined the sober scholarship of the mature man. Who did not notice that the voice of the poet was weak and faint as he delivered the opening oration of the Floral Fair, In this city only ?few short weeks ago ? And yet who his auditors dreamed then that the teeming brain and kindly heart had well nigh done their work? In company with those whom he loved admired, Mr. Simms was full of jest and merry conceit. A charming talker, he, like Cole ridge, rather discoursed than conversed. At all times, he was a true and generous friend whose hand was always ready to help the un fortunate. In all his anxieties, he did not for? get the sorrows and afflictions of others. Ac tion-in his charity, as in his professional work-was the feature of his life. Mr. Simms was twice married. His first wife was a daughter of Mr. Othnlel J. Giles and his second a daughter of Mr. Nash Roach His first wife bore him a daughter, (now the wife of Mr. Ed. Boach, of this city;) and his second three sons and two daughters, all whom are living. One of the daughters is the wife of Mr. Daniel Rowe. The body was laid out in the parlor of Mr Roach's residence yesterday, and many called to take a last look at the features of the great departed. The countenance betokened that he had died without suffering. The funeral services of the deceased will take place at St. Paul's Church, at 5 o'clock fjftis afternoon. The remains will be interred at Magnolia Cemetery. Bor.? ROBBERT.-Early Saturday morning some thieves entered the mart of Mr. William McKay on Meeting street, seized a copper still and a billiard table, placed them upon a wagon and carried them off. DEATHS.-Mrs. Mary Crews, of Laurens died on Friday. Mr. Richard Watts, an old and much esteem ed citizen of Laurens, died at his residence on thc Saluda, on .Monday, the 30th ultimo, after a protracted illness. His long life was char? acterized by an earnest, unobtrusive and modest deportment. Mr. Anthony W. Dozier, formerly of George town, died at Rio Vista, California, on the 2d Instant. The Georgetown Times says that he "held a leading position at the Georgetown bar for more than twenty years, In those day when Peligra, Rant, Legare and Bailey were regular attendants on the court, and was just ly held in high regard and esteem by the peo pie of this community. The noble qualities of his nature challenged Involuntary respect from all with whom he came In contact While he was brave and manly to the hi ghest degree, he was, at the same time, courteous considerate and forbearing. He was firm, but not obstinate. He was a warm and steadfast friend, and a bold and outspoken enemy. In One, he possessed all those noble qualities and feelings which dignified the name of an old Carolina gentleman." Captain George H. Pouncey, of Marlboro' died on the 2nth instant, at the residence of Mr. G. H. Cannon, Oak Crove, Marlon County S. C. FUNERAL SERVICES OF THE LATE LIEUTEN? ANT BURGER.-The remains of the late Samuel J. -Burger, whose sudden death, at Carters ville, Ga., on the Ot li instant, has already been aoticed, reached this city by the South Caro lina train, at half-past 3 P.

Chreltzberg, the pall bearers selected for the occasion, and a number of friends of the deceased, and escorted by them Lo the St. John's Lutheran Church, where, at 5 o'clock, the funeral services took place. The church was Ulled by the great numbers jr personal friends of the deceased, as well as )y the members of the various organizations )f which he had been a zealous and honored nembur. Tho discourse was preached by thc venera lie pastor, Dr. Bachman, who adverted in ouching terms to the high qualities and ilameless life ol* him around whose bier they vere assembled, and whom he himself had cnown and esteemed as a personal friend. He mjolned upon his hearers to take warning rom the suddenness with which their friend lad been summoned to meet his Maker, and o so act that when the last hour should also ?onie for them, they might be ready to meet leath with Christian resignation and confl lence. At the conclusion of the services, the re? nnins were borne to the family lot in thc ihurchyard, and, In the presence of a sorrow ng concourse, were "given to the earth. A irofuslon. of wreaths and crosses of fresh flow irs were placed upon the new-made mound, he last graceful tribute to a well-spent Ufe. MEETIN?

When we visited the skaters on that evening close and warm, Wlgston got the epidemic in its most malignant form. There be saw DeHoney's movements on the floor in varied lines, Running hither, thither, yonder, even as "the woodbine twines." 'Twas a marvel thus to see his motions serpen? tine and fleet, And the manifold gyrations of his trained and skilful feet. Starting off with rapid movement on a seven cu? bit stride, Like the ancient Rhodes', collossns mounted for a castor ride, First, he brought In combination, angle curve and * lengthened line, Making the Arabic figures from the unit up to nine. Then he went to Illustrating geometric problems there, Grouping rhomboids, arcs and circles, all within a hollow square. Opening up the transcendental beauties of the rolling slide Speeding like an arrow forward-passing to a graceful glide Tracing with his skates upon the surface, In a little while, Magna Charta's famous language In a stately Gothic style. Next in grotesque hieroglyphic, written out upon the floor Was a thesis of Confucius, got from oriental lore. Then the ordinance of secession in symmetric lines he showed, And that legal botheration known to us as Cor? bin's Code. Such a tortuous course was never followed but by sinners, or Limping, spavined politicians in their wanderings since the war. Turning round to my companion, as the audience loudly cheered, Said I, "Wigton-did you ever, Bless my soul he's disappeared !" Whither he had gone I wondered; to relieve my - anxious doubt, ^Earnestly I went in search in each direction thereabout. S. - Scarce a moment passed before I saw his bodily estate Eyes In wildest frenzy rolling and his hair erect and straight. Cautious putting one foot forward on the treach? erous sliding wheels, Then with arms Insanely moving, over on the floor he keels ! Full two hundred forty pounds then fell upon the floor below, Sounding like a shock of earthquake in thc midst of lively show. Startled by his own recumbence-features quite chop-rallen-then, After many slips and tumbles, he was on his feet again. Anxious features, timid movement, nervousness and want of grace Like the wicked, Wigston felt he stood upon a slippery place. Finding that again he toppled, lest he meet with further harms, Round an Iron column close he wound his unctious legs and arms. Many dire mishaps befel him-sad collisions painful falls- . Punches In the lumbar region-sharp concus? sions-awkward sprawls Tumbling headlong 'gainst the railing-getting hard cerebral thumps, Starting the lambdoldal suture-swelling Phreno? logie bumps Shins with big abrasions covered-finger nearly cut in two- , Dexter eye in ecchymosls (which ls Greek for black and blue) Paper collar badly ruined-lacerated nether dress, Through the seat of which there sadly waved a signal of distress ! In his mad career we stopped him-placed him on a friendly chair, Loosed his necktie, got his skates off, moved him to the evening air; Then we saw a demonstatlon of the lire-restoring power Of that therapeutic agent, vulgarly called "Bour? bon Sour," With its fragraat odors wafted to his keen saga? cious nose, Quick his consciousness comes to him-down the panacea goes. "Hang mc, but I'm bound to learn lt," Wlgston said, in earnest tone, "If I have to make a compound fracture of each precious bone !" EDWARO F. UNDBRHILL. Charleston, June ll, 1870. THE BATTERY AN? OTUER CITY PROPERTY OFFIiltBD KOR SALK AOAIN.-When Sheriff Mackey, to satisfy au execution in the case of the executors of Geo. Gibbon, deceased, vs. the City Council, levied upon the Battery, the Artesian Well and the premises at the south? east corner of Calhoun and King street, and advertised them to be sold on the 6th of June, Judge Willard, on motion ol City Attorney Corbin, granted an order restraining the plain? tiffs, their attorneys and servants, and Sheriff Mackey particularly, from selling said property until the coming in of the answer in said cause, or the luther order of the court having jurisdiction thereof. On Thursday last the attorneys for the exec? utors flied the answer referred to, and, as we suppose, claim that the injunction is thereby dissolved. However, Sheriff Mackey adver? tises in this morning's ISTEWS that by virtue of an execution In the case of thc executors of George Gibbon vs. the City Council, he will, on thc 5tli of July, sell thc Battery and thc other property above referred to, and also all thal lot of land, situated east end of Pinckney street, now under lease, known as the -'Ferry Slip." Also, all that lot of land, situated on the east end of Vendue Range, and known as the "Ferry Slip." Also, all that wharf or wood yard, situated at the west end of Lynch street. Also, all those lots of land, covered by water, situated at the west end or Broad street. Also, all that lot of land, situated at thc toot of King street, and next west of White Point Garden. When all of this property is sold, the cxecu-., tors will doubtless realize thc full amount of their claim, $41,5G3 40. but it ls not probable that the sale will taVe place for some time. It is argued by some that the Hiing ol the an? swer docs not give the sheriff the right to offer thc property for sale again. We learn that two or more members ol' the City Council are in favor ol paying Hie claim of the executors at once, while the majority are opposed to snell a move. As it is, however, every attempt to seil thc property advertised will be resisted.

Henry Dunmore, colored, arrested for steal? ing S5, was, on Saturday, turned over to the State for prosecution. It is believed that the arguments in the case of the City Council vs. the executors of George Gibbon will be heard before Judge Carpenter in a few days. Our citizens were visited with more rain yesterday. The bells of several of the churches were tolled yesterday as a mark of respect to the memory of the late Wm. Gilmore Simms. BUSINESS NOTICES.
