DISTURBANCE ON THE BATTERY.-Yestordoy afternoon two negroos, who woro Inclined to bo disorderly on tho Battery, were promptly arrested by the military guard, and takon to the Provost Marshal. This guard has now been on the Battery for several days, and has proved vory efficient in preventing disturbances. This con tri butes much to the comfort and pleasure of the frequent ers of that favorite resort, and the officer, whoever ho may be, who cansod tho guard to bo stationed, deserves the thanks of tho -whole community. SODA WATER.-By reference to tho advertisement In another column, It will be observed that Messrs. A. W. ECKEL & Co. have had such a "run" on their fountain, that they have been compelled to procure another. The new ono le very handsome, equal to any In the city, and to be reserved for the exclusive uso of the ladles. Here the angels will quaff their "nectar." But hot an d thirsty mortals of the masculine persuasion must not think that tbelr wants will not also be supplied. On the contrary, they will always find polite and prompt attention; but of course, place aux dames. Mr. ECKEL'S ?oda water is good,-In fact, A No. 1. THE OPTICAL EXHIBITION at the Collogo on Saturday night was a brilliant success. Ths chapel could not bold all the curious applicants. Many of the apocta to ra bad no very definite Idea of what they were invited to see. But the humorous Professsor, with his Drummond Light, soon modo the whole matter clear; and oxclam atf" Mons of surprise and delight followed each other in rapid succession all over tho house. Of course when the fortunate few. who had been thus privileged, re turned home and told their friends of the splendid phenomena they saw produced, said friends were very anxious for an opportunity to enjoy this pleasure on their own account In compliance with the wishes ef a great many such, anothtr performance will be given to morrow night.

Ho was brought up to the business of a merchant in this, his native city, and bia commercial knowledge was afterwards Improved by ten years' experience as a Bank officer. Holding lately the lucrativo position of Sur veyor of the Customs, he yielded that place rather than take the test oath. The public having a necessity to em ploy a capable merchant In the above mentioned mat ters, will do well to call on Mr. LEITCH. BBOOTTNO IN KJHQ-?TBEBT.-Yesterday afternoon, about dark, for some cause unknown, three negro sol diers commenced firing at a citizen in King-street, near Clifford-street They pur mod the citizen, firing, for some distance, when they wore met by the guard of the 0th Infantry, who had been just relieved from duty on the Battery. On learning the circumstances, the white soldiers pursued the negroes, and finally succeeded in capturing two of them and carrying them to the Cita del. The (hird escaped, minus his clothes, which he pulled off to lighten his weight Several shots were fired at the retreating darkies, bat none took effect. -O A NEW YACHT.-Messrs. HARVEY ti SON, shipwrights, bave just completed a beautiful yacht for Mr. HATTON, the enterprising proprietor of the Barf House on Sulli van's Island. The steamboat leaves 8ullIvan's Island for the city at euch an early hour that Mr. DAYTON'S guests are often compelled to go before tbe ' sun is low enough for bathing to be pleasant. On this account Mr. DAYTON has had this boat built in order thtthis visitors may bathe and leave when it suits their co nve nience. The yacht is called the Wassie, Is 80 feet long, and 8 feet s Inches broad, with a sliding kee 1 or centre board of 7 feet She Is cutter rigged, having a large sail of 70 yards. Shs can accommodate 40 pass ongera, and will doubtless soon be a favorite w ith the patrons of tho Hmf House, not only as a passage boat, but also for pleasure excursions. This is the third yacht recently built by the same firm. The Jessie, which waa built for Captain SHARP, and the Norma, built for Captain CUTTER, having given onilre satisfaction, an d refleoted greatcredlt on Messrs. HARVEY ft BON. The 'Wattie waa carried from the builder's yard at the Bailor's Home, in Market-street, to the Market Wharf, and there safely and beautifully launched. At 9 o'clock ia the afternoon she set out on her trial trip, at which we were requested to bo present. We regret that press ing engagements prevented us from availing oursolves of the kind invitation. LAUNCH.-On Saturday morning last there was launched from the ship-yard of Mr. 8. ZANAOUEBA, at BENNETT'S Mill, East Bay, ono of the prottleat little crafts that wa have ever seen upon the water, and which must reflict great credit upon ita builder. The vessel is intended for a steam "Water Boat," and is a propeller, being 60 feet in length, of 16 feet boam, and 6X feet depth. Her tank 1? capable of holding 18,000 gallons of water, and she has double engines of thirty horse power each. She bas 10 lnoh cylinders and 10 Inch stroke, with an upright tubular holler of 6 feet 3 lnobtu diameter and 8 feet height, containing 181 two Inch tubes, and her propeller Is 4 feet 4 inches In dia meter, with a pitch of 7 feet The hull was built by Mr. 8. ZAMAQUERA of the best oak, cedar, and baokmetack, and la copper-fastened and sheathed with l8 or. yellow metal. Her engines and machinery are from the well known establtahmoat of JOHN F. TAYLOR ? Co., and the bhokamlth'a work his bean executed by Sir. O. A* SOANLAN. This fine UUlo steamer, whlob will bo of great service toonr shipping interests, is owned by Mr. J. TUOMBT and tho onterprlslng Omi of ( 'UAH;, TOOMEY de Co., and was named tho "Agnes," in complitnont to the wife of Mr. CrtAio, tho senior member of that firm. AH a matter of information to our mochaulcs, wo would say that this vesse; was built at two thousand dol lars les-t cost than offorod by Northern contract ra, and one thousand dollars 1H than by Eastorn bidders. Proposals from Wilmington, Del., and Baltimore, ap proached nearer tho Charleston estimates than nuy others. Wo wish the utmost success to tho "Agnn," her offl cera, and her worthy and public spirited owners. THE RK-KSTAIILIH?MF.NT orOnoEn.-Our readers will he glad to learn that orders hare been issued from the Headquarters of this Military District for tho arrest of all vagrants, and to prevent tho Belling of liquor tofrccd men. Thi-i is a step in the right direction, and ?hows that the military authorities npprociato tho situation sad aro detormlued to do all their powor for tho resto ration of law and order. Below wo glvo tho Order In fuU: HEADQUARTERS 8TATE OF BOOTS CAROLINA, I CUAIILKKTON, S. O, Juno '?'J, 1866. J GENERAL OIIDKBS, 1 No. 9. I. Tho Brovot Major-Coneral Commanding has no ticed, with deop regret, tho disposition ou the part of frocdmen in tho vicinity of Charleston aud along the coast to disregard their ag cements on plantations, to tho neglect o> the crops, and to either Hy idling abont their houses, roam at largo over tho country, or congro gato in Ohnrlr ?ton and other towns. This total disre gard of aU obligations to keep thoir contracts in good faith will cause an entire Li lure of crops in the State, and the result must bo destitution and starvation. The Increasing amount of theft, drunkonness and vagrancy demands that the most prompt and sovoro measures be taken by all officers to check tho evil. II. It le ordored tbat all mon or ? ornoo who leave the plantation on which they aro employed to labor, either by Inn month, for share of tho crops or as rontors cf land, and thereby neglect their growing crops, ba at once arrested as vagrants and put to work on tho public roads, as provided tor by Par. X11., G. O. No. 1, Head quarters Department of South Carolina. All planters who havo freedmon omploycd ou thoir plantations who do not, at thl- important season of the year, give their entire time to tho growing crops, are authorized, If after reading this order to them and they neglect or rofoso to obey it, to report them at once to the officer i'i command of the district, who will emu? thom to bo taken from tho plantation as vagranta and put to work on tho public roads. Thoir children, If any, will bo bound to such persons as will tako care of them and learn them habits of industry. III. A prison will be established for all persons of color convicted of such crimes as aro no? punishable by dcath on one ot the islands, where employment can bo furnished, and all convicts will be compelled to labor from sunrise until sunset, under tho control of such guards as will Insure their safety. Any person con victed of selling spirituous liquors to a freedmon with out a permit from soroo officer having control, will be fined in any sum not loss than twonty-flvo dollar ({26) nor moro than one hundred dollars ($100) for every offenco of which ho may be convicted. IV. Commanding officers will have this order read in the severe! colored churches in their vicinity, in ord or that it may become generally understood. By command of Brovtt Major-ocnoral R. K. SCOTT. H. W. SMITH, Brevet Lteatenant-Colonel and A. A. General. OFFICIAL: H. W. SMITH, Assistant Adjutant-General. ? -o RKopxAna vs. VoLUHraEBs.- Wherever through tho broad South these, two forces of the victorious enemy have marched, a marked difference between them has been noted. Whore the people were so fortunate as to see but one class of the onemy, an individual acqualn t ed with both would have no difficulty in deciding from their description which that one was. The comparison was always in favor of tho regulars, and especially lu regard to officers. With the men it was the effect of discipline. With the officers it was thi effect of disci pline and breeding combined. The volunteer officer a were braggadocios and bullies, who oppressed, robbed and insulted mon, womon and children for the mere fun of the thing, and with every accompaniment of brutallly which their devilish Ingenuity could luven t. The regular officers on tho other hand treated tho poo - pie with some semblance ol respeot. li the orders of the government, or their own ovil inclinations com pelled them to be libbers or tyrants, they tried to rob and tyrannize in a gentlemanly way. Like the knight a of the road in tho oldon time they took your watch with a smile and your pocket-book with a bow; and Ilk e Turkish Sultans they sentenced to death with a co mp li ment. There may be little choice between robbers, but If it ia one's fate to be robbed it ia better to fa 11 into the banda of those who will do the thing gontee Hy, than into the hands of those who will steal from yo u and then beat yon. Since the cessation of hostilities, this contrast be tween the regu'ars and voluuto-ra hu been a:111 mo r e strongly marked. The volunteers havo treated the South as conquered and hated foes. Like cowards they have otruck their enemy when he was down. The regu . lara have acted more nobly. Resistance coaaed, their ire has subsided. The Confederacy vanished, they re coUoct that they are the soldiers not of the North on ly, but of the United States. Nowhere has this superiority of the regular arm y over the volunteer corpa been more strikingly displayed than in Charleston. We will not dwell on the disagree able side of the picture. We can afford to bury that in alienee, and treat the actors with contempt. It w ou Id be unjust, however, not to mention in terme of approval the conduct of the Sixth Regular Infantry, since it has been in our midst, and also the entente cordiale which exists between oar civil authorities and the offlcors of that regiment, and other regular officers connected with this military post. Colonel H. B. OMTZ, who has received a compllmo n tary appointment carrying him North, earned the co r dlal respect of this community, and it is fortunato for Charleston that he has boon succeeded by Major ROY, another efficient officer of the same regiment, PBOVOBT COOM, June 80.-It wiU be noticed on pe. rusal of the proceedings to-day that several cases in which freedmon are charged with capital folonies h ave been turned over to the Military Commission now In session in this city. Aa this la the same comm laslon before which the Anderson prisoners were tried, It ia to be hoped that tho same untiring efforts will be uaed to bring theao negroea to Justice, as secured tho conviction of those unfortunate men.
