-Winkler was unanimously called to the pulpit. The Wen worth-street congregation have been without a church since the sale of their building, and as the present was not considered a suitable time for erecting another church edifice, they cast their lot with the Citadel Square congregation. The money realized by the sale-twenty thou? sand dollars-will be under the charge of four trustees, two from each church, and will be inviolate until a charter for the joint church, is obtained from the Legislature, under the name of the "Citadel Square Baptist Church," the word "Baptist" being an addition to thttfbrmer name. The two congregations will worship together on next Sunday, and the two Sunday Schools will be also united. The Baptist Church in Church-street has been left without a pastor by this change; but it is hoped that the congregation wfll be soon able to supply their palpit with some able divine.

The Fair was iga in thronged almost to suffocation, and the tables presented the same beautiful appear? ance as before. The hundreds of articles Bold night preceding had been replaced by 11hers of.

an equally attractive character, and the interest attaching to the exhibition was evidently- largely increased by the full descrip don given in the columns of TBS NEWS. A large number of ladies were present in the afternoon, bul the most' attractive aspect of fair was by pas-light. Lovely women stood rnardat the tables and eloquently expatiated the subject of dry goods and baby furniture, beautiful little creations' ia crinoline, with the nost distracting gaiters, meandered fairy-like brough the throng, inviting you to take "only ust one chance" in all sorts of things. Nice widows, with eyes that had gone mourning for the murders they had tommitted, said "please!" to you with i fascinating magnetism that drew the greenbacks from the remotest comers of our breeches pocket; while indefatigable tpecimens of manhood hooked on to angels in iisguiso, and doubtless saved many a dollar lUtlay to themselves by being in such excel ent company. Whenever we saw a stout young gentleman going'tho rounds of tho hall with a baby in his hands, or a.cheap pincushion, eking evorybody to subscribe therefor, we im Qodiately set it down that he had exhausted he "shot in his lock sr," and was attempting a elf-evident flank nicm mont ou tho brigade of air skirmishers around m.

The raffle last evening was vigorously con lucted, and many handsome articles clanged iiuds. Luck seemed to ron in gr io ves, iver, for not a few had the pleasure of hearing 'prize" read out more than once in connection rith their names. Many beautiful articles rere sold outright, bat the popular table was hat on which the child rea's toys were exposed or raffle. All tile tables were handsomely replenished, nd those who were present on Monday eve ting renewed their ouriosity last night ia look ng upon the beautiful novelties which filled ivery resting-place iu the hall. The crowd waa very great, the satisfaction greenbacks were scattered in proru ion, and everybody went away happy.

The rrayof beauty preseut is perfectly alarming a single mah, and the bashful man rho cannot ordinarily withstand the gentle iloquence of woman to go to Hibernian Hall oat to his band in." os GENERAL SESSIONS AND'COHMON PLEAS-May ZEPHANIAH PLATT, PBE arguments in the case of Isaac Mitchell, indicted for bigamy, were concluded, and the case being given to the jury, of not guilty was rendered.

L. Trenholm presiding. After confirmation of the minutes of tbe an? nual meeting, Yice-President Steele gave notice of a motion to amend the constitu? tion so as to canse the regalar meetings of the association to be held on the first Wednesday in each month, instead of Tuesday, as at pres? ent. vice-President Steele offered the following resolution: Resolved, That the President of this Board appoint a committee of three, who shall be em? powered to enter into an agreement with the proprietor of tbe hotel for the use of the club? room for one year, from this date, aid room to be used for regular monthly and special meet? ings that may be called, the proprietors agree? ing to furnish gas, rael, ona ira and tables for the use of the association, and that the som of fifty dollars be appropriated to carry this agree? ment into effect. The resolution was adopted.

The Secretary said that the Board had been invited to appoint delegates to the National Board of Trade, which will meet in Philadel? phia in June next, and Mr. W. J. Hastie offer? ed the following resolution Resolved, That the Executive Committee have foll power and authority to appoint two members of this Board as delegates to tbe Na? tional Convention of the Boards of Trade of the United States, to be held in Philadelphia in Jone next, and that said members shall bold theil- appointments for one year; and, further? more, that the expenses of said delegates shall be paid by this Board. This resolution was adopted.

vice-President Steele offered the following Resolved, That the Executive Committee be instructed to lay down an order of proceed? ings for the meetings of this Board, and to report at the next meeting of the Board. The resolution was adopted. Amendments to the constitution, making the president and vice-president ineligible for more than tico terms in succession, and fixing the compensation of the treasurer, of which no? tice had already been given, were then taken up. That in relation to the term of office was supported by Mr. Bruns and opposed by Messrs.

G. W. Clarke and W. S. Hastie.

Col? onel Trenholm, who had vacated the chair for the purpose, said that it would be very un? wise to change the rule. A constant succession would stimulate activity, encourage emulation, and make the Board thoroughly energetic. If an officer were eligible for more than one year courtesy would suggest his re-election, and if this were continued for two or three years, any failure to re-elect would seem invidious and certainly be unpleasant. These were shifting, changing times. Policy is constantly being modified.

These are questions which are not yet decided, and those in office now might not be best fitted to deal with issues that may arise two or three years hence. Until public affairs were settled and firmly founded it was best, in every way, to have quick rotation in office. Upon a vote being taken, the proposed amendment to the constitution in regard to the terms of office was lost. The question of compensation to the treas? urer chen came up, and the proposed amend? ment was adopted. The following new membeis were proposed and unanimously elected: Ja In es Bridge, and John H.

Holmes. Mr. Hastie then rose and referred to the sud? den and lamented death of Mr. Hanks, ene of the oldest members of the association. He said that Mr.

Hanks was one of the oldest members of the association, spoke eloquently of bis life and death, and offered the following Resolved, That the members of tbe Board of Trade of Charleston deeply sympathize with the family of the late L. B. Hanks in their great bereavement. We mourn in union with bis family the loss of a merchant who, during a long career of usefulness in this State, main? tained the character of a mau of unbending integrity and bouor. Resolved, That this resolution be spread apon the journal of this Board, and a copy for warded to the family of the deceased.

The Board then adjourned. MASONIC' members of th? Masonic Supreme Council, of the Thirty-third Degree, sat down evening to a splendid entertainment furnished hy Major Horbach, proprietor of the Charleston Hotel. The bill of faxe, which was beautifully printed in crimson and gold letters by Mr. James W. McMillan, was not only a specimen of the art preservative of all arts, but presented peculiar gastronomic attractions.

The num? ber of guests was limited, including only the members of the Council and the most distin? guished Masons. General Albert Pike, the illustrious grand commander, who had arrived during the morning, was present.

A communication from the Board of Com? missioners of the Poor, reviewing the charges against them concerning the conduct of the Alms House and administration of its details, made by a committee of the City Council and published in the proceedings of April 21. The concluding paragraph is as- follows "In con? elusion, the Board feel that great injustice has been done them by this report of the commit? tee, and the hasty action of Council in adopting it, without a hearing from the Com? missioners, and in self-respect to themselves, they cannot consent to hold the position they now occupy as almoners of the city charity, when their actions have been so unjustifiably condemned by a committee of their body and acquiesced in by them, and the only alterna? tive is to tender to Council their resignation as a board.

TREASON TH THE Charleston cor? respondent of Forney's Washington Chronicle is very unhappy about the "disloyalty" preva? lent in Charleston, which he indignantly tells us has even contaminated the army officers stationed here: He says: All are not loyal men that wear the uniform of American soldiers even. Good dinners, champagne suppers, ''mock-turtle soup," fre? quent whiskey treats; are all that is necessary to cover up the allegiance of sbouldcr-strapped Eensioners of the republic.

Southern air, ospitality, and women are too frequently dis? astrous to the sentiments of devotion which the liveried servants of the nation are sup? posed to bear. This is shocking; but still more horrible is the discovery which he narrates as follows The Ku-KJux Elan have established their "dens," and are meeting on the "895th" hour to conjure np their devilish work and issue forth their cabalistic cards of blood. What they cannot accomplish on the field, in the forum, by argument or sense, they propose to, achieve by dark deeds of strategy, stealth and assassination. Their midnight cabals doom the man that dares defend his country. The Grand Tycoon summons the hellish horde to the knife, torch and bludgeon, and death is the verdict of their "low-twelve" mutterings.

They are offered at retail DECO AND MEDICINE firm of Hegeman A of No. 253 Broadway, New York, is probably, the largest wholesale drug house in the United States, and daring half a century it has enjoyed a reputation which places it deservedly at the head of the trade. This firm dates tho origin of its business far back as forty years ago, it having been commenced by Mr.

William L. Bush ton, in 1827, at No. 81 William-street, New York city. The senior Mr. Hegeman of the present firm was a boy in that store in 1829, and has grown up with the business of the house with which he has been so long identified, and of which he is now the head.

In 1832, Mr. James Aspinwall became a partner, the firm atyla then being Bushton Aspinwall. The custom of establishment con? tinued steadily increasing in prosperity, till 1843, when the firm was dissolved by mutual consent, and Mr. Bushton entered into part? nership with Mr. Hegeman.

They now had stores at No. HO Broadway and No. 10 Astor In 1845 they opened a third store, at the corner of Fourteenth-street and Broadway. In 1847 Mr. George Clark became a partner, the firm name being changed to Bushton, Dark and thus continuing till the death of Mi' Bushton, in 1853.

Buring the partnership of Bushton, Clark Mr. Clark visited Newfoundland and there established their first factory for the manufac? ture of Cod Liver Oil, that celebrated and most efficacious of all remedies for consump? tion, scrofula, now renowned in the world of medical science, and accepted as a standard article by the Medical Faculty. In 1854 the firm became Hegeman, Clark A continu? ing thus till 1857, when it was dissolved by Mr. Hegeman purchasing the interest of Mr. Clark.

The firm is now composed of Mr. Hege? man, and bis son, J. Niven Hegeman.
