FINE PASSAGE.-The commercial line schoon? er Virginia, Captain Ross, consigned to Messrs. H. F.

They are held for trial this morning before the Mayor. THE SUDDEN TUMBLE OF NEW STATE BONDS The New York Herald, ol Friday last, tn its re? view of the stock market on the preceding day, says : The Southern State bonds were heavy and lower under the depressing Influence ol a sharp decline In the new South Carolina sixes, which Iel! from 54* to 50, rallying to 52. Ihe cause oi this decline was the peremptory sale ot a lai?e amount of the bonds which had been hy p .iiiecated for borrowed money, which the uorrowcT could not return on demand. USING HIS KNIFE.-Ned Russell and John Brown, two colored youth?, quarrelled about some trivial matters on Friday night, in Co? lumbus street, near the railroad track. They soon came to blow.?, and daring the fight Rus? sell drew his pocket-knife and stabbed Brown la trie right cheek, giving bin a severe gash. Brown yelled for the police, who quickly came to the rescue, and carried the two com? batants to the Guardhouse. They were brought before tbe Mayor next morning, and Russell was sent to the House of Correction-for twen J^y days. Brown got off with ten days and the cat la his cheek. SAILING OF THE GEORGIA.-This capacious Iron steamship sailed on Saturday for New York with a full cargo o? cotton, rice, nava, stores, Ac. The steamships oi this line mark the progress of the. colton movement. Begin? ning early in the mon:h with OM thousand bales, lt shows weekly ngaree of twelve hun? dred, fourteen hundred and now sixteen hun? dred bajes; so that at the same steady ratio ot increase we expect to see a repetition of last year's twenty-five hundred bale cargoes, which made the Iron Line lamons in the coastwise trade. Ia spite ol prejudicial rumors, this pott shows favorable shipping figures, being noted last week, as on several previous weekly cot? ton bulletins, as second only to New Orleans in colton receipts. THE COLUMBIA RING.-From the Columbia Phoenix we gather that : 1. The committee of the Board of Trade have been allowed to have access to the pians and specifications of the City Hall and the new market. In the case of the City Hall, the con? dition is annexed that Mr. Parkins be present, and that the committee of the Board of Trade pay his expet ses io Columbia. The committee ol the Board of Trade accepted the offer. Cap? tain J. C. Bell and Messrs. Fry and Troy-all experienced builders-have been requested lo assist the committee In making an estimate of j the new marker. 2. Mr. James M. Allen offers to sell out his contract lor $25,000. The Phoenix adds : We, at least, have no desire to buy Mr. Allen our. We hope to make his shoes HO bot that no other man would like to put his feet in them. 3. Cornpi roller-General J. L. Nengle has now with him iu New York $250,000 worth of new bonds of Columbia City, 'ssued to him lor the loan ol $75,000 to the city council. These bonds have been surreptitiously issued, and. thus far, no announcement of the fact has been made by thc authorities. TUE CHRIST CHCRCU MORDER-ANOTHER IX QUEST.-Owing to certain informalities In the oroceedlogs, and the want of authority on the l^rtof Trial Justice Kinloch to hold the in? quest, Coroner A. M. Maskey repaired on Fri? day to the Bermuda Plantation, in Christ Church Parish, the scene of the murder, lor the purpose ol holding an Inquest over the body of Peter Johnson, the murdered ireed man. The body, which had been buried since Tuesday, was exhumed, and a post-mortem examination held by Dr J. E Dawson, of I Mount Pleasant. The wound was, as belore stated, a round hole in the lea side, between the hip and lower rib, which must have caused his death in a short time. The grudge spoken of as existing between the two men was owing to the fact that Johnson bad formerly been Mr. Heath's foreman, but was recently superseded by Davenport. About three weeks since the two men had quarrelled in reference to cotton-picking, and on examination it was found, as usual, that a woman was at the bottom ol the affair, and jealousy had doubtless a good deal to do with the consequent crime. Susan Vanderhorst testified also, that OB tbe night of tbe murder she had heard the deceased and Davenport quarrelling again, a lew minutes before the gun was dlschaiged. No other evidence of importance was elicited. The Jury rendered a verdict that the deceased came to his death, oa the night of the 24th Instant, from the ef? fects of a gunshot wound produced by a gun in the bands of James Davenport. AU search for Davenport has hitherto proved futile, and he is still at large. At the Inquest previously held in the case, by Trial Justice Kinloch, the Jury returned .. similar verdict, and the reason why this lc ?best was not held legal, was that Mr. Kin? loch had not been deputized by the coroner, and the law only empowers a trial justice to bold an Inquest on pressing occasions, and when the coroner Is more thoo fifteen miles distant lrom the phv:e of tbe death. TBE HEALTH OF THE CJTT. Decline of tue Fever.

The executive board met on Saturday last, and the lollowlng report of a special commit? tee was offered: The committee appointed to consider the expediency ot opening a ward in the Hoper Hospital for the reception and treatment of patients under the care of the Howard Asso? ciation, and to confer with the trustees ol the Roper Hospital upon the feasibility of doing so, report that oo Friday afternoon, the 29lh or September, ultimo, they met the trusteed of the hospital. The trustees generously offered the use ot a ward In the hospital, with bede, bedding and 'urniture sufficient for about twenty-five patients, should lt ba deemed ex? pedient by the association to open Btioh ward, and at the same time expressed a regret that under certain legal proceedings the trustees were enjoined lrom using the funds, aud hence they could not offer to bear any part ot the expenses. The committee, after such conference, met and considered the question ol the expediency of opening such a ward, and are unanimously ol opinion that, at present, such course ls not <. vedient. Many reasons could be assigned lo: ?he conclusion at which the committee lias arri.sd; but the fact ihat, in the opinion of **- committee, there ls no need for it, will suffice. The committee recommend the adoption ol the appended resolutions. Respectfully submitted, S. A. NELSON, BENJAMIN F. EVANS, THOMAS M. HANCKEL, WILLIAM 0. WUILDBN. Resolved, That In the opinion of the execu? tive committee there is no present necessity lor opening a ward in the Roper Hospital for the reception and altendance upon patients under care of Ihe Howard Association. Resolved, That the lhatiks of the executive committee are gratefully returned to the trus? tees ol the Roper Hospital for their generous tender of the use of a ward In said hospital. Hie reportantl resolutions were then unani? mously adopted. DEATH OF THE REV. T. WILLARD LEWIS. This gentleman died on Saturday last, on Sul? livan's Island, where he had been temporarily sojourning, and was buried yesterday. His re? mains, which had been brought over from ihe island in a small boat, were met at Moreland's wharf and escorted to Hie Centenary Church in Wentworth street, where the funeral took place. The services were conducted by the Rev. W. Weston and were attended by an im? mense crowd. The church was heavily draped in mourning, and much feeling was manifested by the congregation as the Impressive cere? mony proceede.3. At the conclusion the re? mains were escorted up to the Magnolia Ceme? tery and there Interred iu a lot bought for ibe purpose by the congregation ol his church. The procession was one of the largest ever seen in the city, and the Immense numbers who followed the remains lo the cemetery, to? gether with the numerous vehicles of all de? scriptions, showed in what high esteem the deceased was held among the colored portion ol our community. Mr. Lewis was a minister ol the Methodist Eplscor al Church (North,) a native of Massa? chusetts, and a member of the New England Conference. He had been here ever since the war, laboring among the colored people. In politics he was an extreme Republican, and came to the South fully imbued with all the prejudices of an original Abolitionist; and, to do him justice, he retained most of these prej? udices to the day ol his death. From the very nature of his position, he was thrown into an? tagonism with existing ecclesiastical organiza? tions here, and it was chiefly owing to this that he formed but few social ties during his six or seven years' residence in South Caro? lina. Those who knew him best, how? ever, speak of him ia terms of the nigh? est praise-believing him to have been a true man, a pi ou* Christian, and a zealous minister of the Gospel. He enjoyed 1836. 1858. 1871. 1 12 5 6 1 3 28 3 7 39 6 16 73 21 16 103 - 14 24 123 9 24 8G 30 31 64 20 1138 ViS 100 23 45 2-1 41 16 22 5 24 4 12 5 8.. 1 20G 68) unbounded confidence among the colored peo? ple, and founded a number of churches both In this city and in other parts of the State. Both '.Centennary Church," in Wentworth street, and "Claflin University,"' in Oracgebur.'. owe their origin largely to his individual efforts. To all intents and purposes he was a mission? ary in partibus, for In his eyes, and in the eyes of those who 6ent him, we were all heathens. He had generally spent his summers hereto lore at the North, but this year he would not go, because he deemed it his duty to remain at his post. Although we could not agree with him in many ot his one-sided views, we can honor bia manhood, and his Christian courage and fidelity, and chronicle with real regret his untimely IOSB. TUE FORT JOHNSON TRAGEDY-DEATH OF THE VICTIM AND INQUEST.-Simon Grant, the col? ored man who was found with his bead broken in, lying beside a flat on the beach at Fort Johnson, last Sunday morning, died on Fri? day night, at a quarter-past 7 o'clock, at the City Hospital. Since he was brought to the hospital, on Monday last, the unfortunate man has lain in a state of stupor, and died at length without having once been conscious or able to speak and clear up the mystery attend? ing the affair. A jury of Inquest was impan? elled by Coroner Mackey next morning for the investigation of the case. Grant had been living on the plantation of Mr. John B. Bee, on Goosecreek, which place he left on the 19th Instant, with a flat load of wood for this city, managing the flit himself. He nrrived safely, landed at Gadsden's wharf, sold his wood, and started on bis return home on Saturday night in company with Moses Washington. The finding of his body next morning on the beach has been already de? scribed. What occurred In the interval ol' their leaving tl e Spanish vessel and the find? ing of the body has not been explained, and there ls nothing to account for it but the evidence ot the prisoner, Moses Washington, Hftr companion of the deceased in the flat, who ls now held lor examination on the cha^e 0r murder. It being necessary to summon seve? ral witnesses from James Island, the further examination before the inquest was postponed until 10 o'ciock this morning. A post-mortem examination of the deceased has been held, and the result will also be given beiore the jury of Inquest this morning. Hotel Arrivals-September 3 J and Oct. 1. PAVILION HOTEL. J. E.

TRIBUTE OF RESPECT. At a meeting of Washington Lodge. No. 1, I. 0. G. T., held on WedLesday, September 27lh, the following preamble and resolutions were adopted : When death strikes down a member of a society and removes from amongst his col? leagues one whom long and familiar associa? tion has endeared to them, the broken lies of individual lriendship awaken sorrow and grief in the hearts of the survivors ; but when one is taken away from us whom we knew but as a stranger in a strange lund, until that portal was passed which brought him within the pale of our order, only a few momba ago, and ere we had opportunity ol' knowing him well, we are necessarily most Impressed with the mel? ancholy circumstance of his dying lar from his home and those to whom he was bound by lieB of kindred, while we cannot but feel gratelul that we, as Good Templars, have been permitted to extend to him, In bis last days, the friendly hand and hearty sympathy of brothers. Therefore, be it Resolved, That in the death of Brother George Killson, who died of j ello w fever on the 23d of September, 1871, Washington Lodge, No. 1,1. 0. of G. T., has been deprived of a brother whom we shall hold in remembrance, because In his connection with the lodge and early death iherealter has exemplified Hie highest beneficence ot' our Institution. Resolved, That we are reminded by his re? moval of the Insecure tenure of life, and that we should, therefore, the more carefully show ourselves to be true Good Templars, lhat death ?r-.ay not come upon us while our work is un? finished, and that we may meet in "good standing'' in the Grand Lodge on High, there to dweliforever In ialth, hope and charity. Resolved, That we deeply sympathize with his bereaved parents, sisters and brothers in their great affliction, and tender to them as a sad privilege this expression of our sentiments in the time of their Borrow. Resolved. That a page In our minutes be In? scribed aud dedicated to his memory, and that a copy of this preamble and these resolutions be sent to his ramliy. Resolved, That these proceedings be publish? ed in the dally papers. Extract from the minutes. HENRY SONNTAO, Worthy Recording Secretary, pro tem. BUSINESS NOTICES.
