His Ups have touched its brim mo the straw hat from off the wall, 'Ti? wreathed with withered flowers; The rustling leaves do whisper me Of all the loved lost hours. The raWte, with ita music balla Chi de not let thora sound 1 The dimpled hand that grasped thom once Is cold beneath the ground. The willow wagon on tho lawn Through all my tears Ieee: . Koli it away. Oh ! gently roll. It 1B an agony! His chees are tn the comer, nurse, His little feet no more . Will patter like the falling rain. Fast up and down the floor. Aad turn that picture to the wall- - His loving mournful eye Is piercing through my very heart. Again I eoo bim dio ! Oh 1 anguish, hew he gazed on mo.

If, In the opinion of a physician, confinement should be necessary, the Com? mittee recommend that bebe placed temporarily In the lunatic department of the City Hospital, until the case is morefullyTtevelcpea. J. H. HONOUR. -, , & o COURTENAY. Alderman - Honour made the following report, which waa laid over for consideration at next regu? lar meeting: - j-flSe Committee on T.iCT.tn>g the City, to whom waa referred the communication of Mr. Poznans?, in relation to the use of bis Gas Multiplier, beg leave to report-That in the consideration of tho same they have not relied upon certificates or theoretic calculations, but upon the results of a practical experiment, made at the Main Guard House, where the apparatus waa applied. In tho month of November. This experiment was applied to the lights In the building itself, and also to the street lamp, the consumption of which ia registered by a distinct and sepni.tte taster.. T i .<.? o' experiments show a consumption of gas about ont Mji .djhrrta wi'h the use of the multiplier than with? out it. ?h?e ibo light waa equally good. your Committee also obtained liiforrnailon from M Purcell, proprietor of the Mill? House, and from the pro? prietors of-tho Dally Nows, both of which csU.,ll?h ments h.ve had the multiplier In use. ^J^'^ ; ments or tho diminution of consumption accords with i ""TWO of tho Committee also ^ta^d some -SSS: ments to test t;e c-omparative briUiancy or the Ughts. whtcn werojnauo upuu.Ure iihotoins.. .o^ =?pr^_.~^T longing tolboGas Company, which showed that with tho use of tho multiplier, a burner, wh.ch adniittoda How of trfo feet l>er hour, gavo a light equal to that thrown by a burner which admitted a flow of ?vo foot without the uso of thc multiplier. - ' Thc Gas Company has agreed to tho application of tho multiplier to the street lamps; under conditions which tho committee deem reasonable, and has also submit? ted a scale of charges Tarring with tho number of lights. Tho Committee, deeming it essential lo recommend an incrcaso lu tho number of Btre-t lights, bog to be allowed to increase tho number to ono thousand, applying tho multiplier. This will bc au increase of sovonty-uvo por cont, on tho cost of what we now have, viz: four hundred and seventy-four. " The Conimitttco-would also rooommend that they be authorized to apply thc multiplier to tho several publio buildings. To illustrate tho advantage to bo gained wo1 will toko thc Orphan House for example. Tho gas bill against that house for thc month of De? cember was Xi.GOO feet, which, at SO per M., is MILOO. With the uso of tho multiplier this will bo reduced one-third, or to 16,000 foot. Supposing thcro aro 100 lights in tho building, tho cost will bo : 15,000 feet, at $0 per M.?*1.00 To Mr. Poznauski for fluid and attendance, $1 per M..... -B-cc Total cost for December.S109.CS ncainst S141. Por tho first yoar tho saving will be di? minished bv the costof apparatus, but these will last for 1 years-, and "for every successive year tho saving will bo about what has been stated. The Committee will clow their report by rocomir end? ing thc adoption or the following resolution, viz : Resolve*. That the Committco on. Jighting the City be antborizt d lo make arrangements with tho Gas Company I and Mr. Poznauld for the lighting of one thousand street lamps, with the gae multiplier attached. Resol jed. That the sa ul o Committco be authorized to apply tho gas multiplier to Ure meters of the several pub Uo buildings. ... J. H. HONOUR. WILLIAM G. W BILDEN. P. C. GAILLARD, Mayor. Alderman Honour mado the following majority report, which was laid ovor for consideration at next ragular meeting: The undersigned, members of the Special Committco to which was rcfcrredjho ''memorial and petition of the Board of Truslces of tho Roper Fund," afters careful and attentive consideration of tho very important subject 'committed to them, ask leave to present the following report: " The agreement entered into by tho City Couno?, and tho Medical Society as Trustees of the Roper Hospital in 1835.piovldcs that Iho city shall annually appropriate fl" i thousand dollars to tho Modlcal Society, to bo ex p-culed in tho support and, maintenance of the Roper Hospital, to continue "so long. aa the arrange? ments contemplated by this agreement shall be mutually carried into ejj'ecl." And the Modlcal Society on then part "covenant and agree that ,11 tho sick poor of tho city shall be received and main tam od in tho same manner as at the Poor House, and provided with good and silfnrient, medical attendance in the stria Roper Uospital, at the ex? pense of tho said Institution; and freo of all charge and expense to thc city; and also that the temporary city and transcient insane, such as are provided for in the insane department of the Poor House, and all such persons of that description as tho Commissioners who have charge oi the poor of the city shall direct, shall be maintained and provided with good and sufficient medical attendance in tho bunding referred to, -or some other building ol equal accommodation, thc same to be done at tho charge of the said Medical Society, and free of all charge to the city." A subsequent section provides that tho Medical Society, or their propor agents, shall render to the City Council a quarterly report, in writing, of the number and condition of the sick and insano poor under their charge. -:.?"? This agreement was mutually carried into effect by th? contracting parties until February, 186$, when, in con. sequence of tho occupation of tho hospital buildings bj tho military, the operations thereof entirely ceased. To? wards the close ol tho year 18G5, it was found absolutely necessary that tho city authorities should adopt measures for thc relief-of the largo number of sick poor in tho city, who were suffering from destitution and the want o: medical attendance. Thia was thc occasion of mud anxioty on tho part of the City Council, to whom vari oui plans wero proposed, which were referred to a Spochi Committee, or whom Alderman Trenholm was Chairman to take thc whole subject into consideration, and recom mend such measures as were most likely to accomplis! the desired object. Tho United States Medical Directo: for this department having most kindly offered to afton all the aid in his power for tho accomplishment of tail desirable object, the Committee had interviews with thu officer, who agreed to furnish the necessary supplies o medicines, hospital stores, Sic, for the uso of tho sic] poor, and the Committee reported a Bill providing for thi creation oi a Health Department, which, after undergo .lng some alterations in its minor details; waa adepte, by Council, and an Ordinance ratified providing tor th election of six City Physicians, and the establishment o a hospital for tho reception of patients. The old . Aim House in Mazy ck street was accordingly repaired and pu into a suitable condition, tho buildings being so altor? and arranged as to make them capablo of comfortabl accommodating 260 patients, on ample supply of hospita furniture, medicines, Ac, being gratuitously furrdshc by tho United States Medical Dii-xtor. The Marine Hoi pi tal having, been ' discontinued, arrangements were et tered into for tho reception and accommodation of sic seamen, for whom separate Wards were provided. The main building has been appropriated to tho use c white patients, and the building in thc rear, J?rmcrly uso for lunatics, has undergone an cn tiro change, and no' affords largo and comfortable accommodations for co . oreti patients; the buildings are connected by a passag way, but tho "intermix turo of races, in the same bulk ing," sc much deprecated by the memorialists, is pure! imaginary, thc : separation being quito as perfect as : could bo in the Roper Hospital, i-i,which it ls propose that "one of its minis shaU bc opened" lor tho reccptio of colored paupers." . : ' V - . Tho organization or the' Hospita] was effected in "foi i nary, I860, under thc immediate direction and supe vision of Dr. George 'S. Pelzer, the City Registrar, an . has been an entire success. Thc accommodations for p tienta, both white anti colored, aro ample, and under tl present arragement, the expense is merely nominal. Tl city bas berni divided into district*?, each being assigne r to "ono of the city physicians, who have faithfully di charged the duties of meir high trust in administorix to the relief of the sick poor. During the year no nearly closed, tho number Of patients treated is 39: xviii tc's and 4755 blacks and colored, -peking an aggrcga ai 8668. During tho pr?valent? ot the small-pox cj demie, a hospital was opened beyond the city limits, ax placed under the direction of Dr. S. C. Brown, into VT Inc were admitted 924 cases. Thc whole system has worked well, and bas succoedc beyond the expectations ol' its most sanguine friend 1 and it is the opinion of the undi reigned that it is 1 the interest of tho city that tho organization shoald 1 continued. Tho agreement entered m to twelve years af with the Medical Socio ty was brought to a close nearly tv, years ?go, by the inability of the Society to comply wit i its terms, and tho city having been forced to adopt othi arrangements?. The memorialista say ihat "the agre merit between the City Council and the Medical Socle! binds their successors in omeo to the performance of tl contract, " To this we give our hearty assent. Tl agreement binds tho Society to receive and administer ' the wants and necessities ot tho sick poor of the city. Tl memorialists ''claim that they faithfully adhered to ai carried out their portion of the contract until their op rations wore suspended by tho annihilation of all di authority." This wo also cheerfully admit, but on tl restoration of civil authority they wore not in a cone] tion to renow tho contract; nor are they yet fully pr pared to do so, tho .building not being in a condition receive all the patients under treatment. The mcmorir ists proposo that thu city shall turn over to them all tl hospital stares, medicines, Ac, in its possession, lt ms well be doubted if we have any right to do so, at lea, without thc consent of those from whom they were r ceiv?d. r?ai. That the Trustees or the Boper Hospital being raab to fulfill their agreement is no fault of theirs, we ai prepared to admit; nor was it, certainly, the fault of tl city. Tile reverses and changes that have takon place we: entirely unforeseen and could not bo guarded agair.s but those reverses compelled the city, authorities i resort to new measures to relieve thc suffering poo Thia they were ..sotannly bound" to do; and ha lng, fortunately, succeeded in putting into operatic a plan that has proved eminently successfc and attended with much leos expense to tl city, tho undersigned can perceive no.moral or leg obligation which requires a renewal of the agroemen We are still in a transition state, and we think it is b yond the ken of the most astute to say what will be oi political or civil condition a year hence The preset emergency is all that we can reasonably be expected meet. Circumstances may hereafter render it ad visa b to renew the relations which heretofore oxisted betwei the City and the Trust:os ol' the Roper Hospital; but, : tho present condition of tilings, tho undersigned are opinion that it would bo unwise to do so, and they a cordingly recommend that the "Memorial and Petitic of the Board of Trustees of the Roper Fund" be n granted. All which ia respectfully submitted. JNO. H. HONOUR. JACOB SMALL. Alderman Wragg mado the following minorit report, which was also laid over for considerate at next regular meeting: Thc Minority of the Committee on the "Memorial ai Petition of the Trustees of tho Roper Hospital," repo that tho Committee met at the City Hall oh the 10th Ja nary, 1867, when the following members were proser, viz:.Aldermen Wragg, C?u?rrnari, and Small. *~ Professor Chisolm, President of the Medical Society < South Carolina, and ex officio Chairman of the Board i Trustees of the Boper Hospital, appeared before tl Committee and gave such information in relation to tl transactions between tho Board and the City Council i seemed to have a direct bearing on the contract whic finally resulted. -- On the l?th of January the Committee again met at tl office of Alderman Honour, when the following momba: were present, viz: Aldermen Wragg, Chairman; Sma and Honour-the whole Committee. ' y The Chairman submitted tho following sketch of tl information which hud been brought to the consider: hon of the Committee by tho Memorial and Prof Chi olm's explanations: "From the statements made in the 'Memorial sn Petition,'and tho explanations of Professor Chisolm tl following points appear to be made out: - .. L Previous to the time at which the contract was ei tered into between tho: two parties, the community ha decided that the plan upon which the charities of tb city was being dispensed was so faulty ss to call for n form. . 3. That the object of this reform should be the sepan rion pr the three distinct classes or persons Tor whoa provision had to be made, so that each class mi?hfct cared for by itself. 77??". 8,; ,Th*- to 0118 00414 would be necessary that s?parai buildings shouid be provided. *> That it was important that tho change should b mado at the least possible cost to the city* , f.

That an arrant-. ment should be made with the Trustees of the Bon?

Portions of the Boper Hos? pital were devoted to this object before tho war, and the plan was found to work adrnirably, particularly in seasons ol epidemic. , " _ 17. That the present arrangement with tho Bureau is of uncertain duration, being liable to stop it-any time lt may suit ono party to terminate it, and at furthest only to continuo two years." " _ The facts and arguments abovo stated did not make tho same impression on all tho mombers of the commit? tee. To the obairman thoy afford satisfactory proof that the reopening of tho Boper Hospital would be of Inesti? mable advantago to the city, as it worro restore ari ar? rangement which had worked most harmoniously for over ten years, and which is the only one which promises a permanent and independent sys tom of operations; that it eau bo engrafted on tho present pion at BO expense to the city, while to persevere in the effort to pr?vido sepa parato hospital accommodation must entail additional expenso to au amount not tobe foreseen or calculated; that unleaB it is done speedily, the State^approprlaBonof oFtho" Boper'Fund (?400? or more), in addition to the State appropriation, will be expended tor the benefit of tho city poofand. finally, the good' faith of the city be? ing pledged to 'co-operation, to violate that faith would be unbecoming tho high character, of this body. The following resolution is, therefore; recommended to Council: Resulted, That a committee of three be appointed by Council to confer with the Trustees of tho Boper Fund, with a viuw to restoring the relations heretofore subsist? ing between them and the City Council on some mutu? ally satisfactory basis. Respectfully submitted, by WILLIAM T. WBAGG.

B. OLNE?. E. WILLIS, P. O. GAILLARD, Mayor. The Mayor made the following report, which was I received as information : . In tho matter ot the verdict oi the Jury or Inquest, re? cently rendered in thc case ol Thomas Freon, I bog to submit thc following : The record roads os follows : "STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, \ - . . CHARLESTOTT DISTRICT, J An inquisition indented, taken at No. - 20 State street, I in tho District and St:- to aforesaid, the 27th day of De I cembor, A. D. 1S6G, bet?re E. M.

Flannigan, P. Burns. D. O'Leary, P. Kelly, Michael CnUighan, M. Early, P. Carey, being a lawful Jury of Inquest, who, bein^ charged and sworn, , inquire for thc State of South Carolina where and by what moana the said Thomas Frcan carno to his death, npon their oaths do say that he came to his death by the falling of a wall on Cordes street, occasioned by tho ne? glect of tho proper authorities in not .having said wan pulled down. And so the said jurors aforesaid, upon their oaths aforesaid, do say, that tho aforesaid Thomas Frcan came to his death in manner and form as afore? said. ; .la witness whereof. I, E. M. Whiting, Coronar afore ? said, and the Jurors aforesaid to - this, inquisition, have set our hands and seals, the day and year aforesaid.'' Slgnedjiy .Coroner and Jurors. - But one witness wig examined in tho caso, aal bia d?? position ronds OB-followB: _ ,r-,t_ - -- ? "Anthony WiUiams "(eblbred), who! upon hiing duly sworn says, that on this morning, about half-past 7 o'clock, while ho waa opening tho store of Mr. Costa, by whom he ia employed, he seen tho wall of tho burnt building at tho comer or Venduo Range and Cordes street, fall and kill the deceased and his mule instantly. Sworn to before Coroner Whiting, 27th December, 1866." Upon this testimony, then, was tho verdict rendered. It is true that Freon waa killed by tbe falling of a wall, but under circumstances which would scarcely warrant such a verdict; and in order to show this. I submit the following statement of facts: Thc deposition of Williams states that the wall was part of the burnt building at corner of Vendue Range and Cordes at-.eet, which is a mistake, the building being at corner of Venduo Range and Prioleau street Cordes street runs parallel with Vendue Range, and is at such distance from thc Range that another street lies between them, parallel to both. It lr apparent that tho witness; Williams, has confounded Cordes with Priolean street, and tho Jury, upon his testimony, has jumped to the conclusion that the waU was on that street, though there is nothing in the deposition to warrant it. The deposi? tion states that the building, not the wall, was at* the corner of these two streets, and tho fact is that there was no wall on Prioleau arr ot, it having boen pulled down to the lovel of the pavement months ago. These remarks are intended to show with what little care, tho Investiga? tion was made. The inquisition was held in State street, and I am informed by ono or tho jurors that they did not oven visit the spot to ascertain tho circumstances of the accident. These I will detail eo far as I have been abie to learn them from my own observation and from state? ments or others : Two or more large stores on Vendue Bange^jcx tending from Prioleau street towards East Bay, were burned more than a year ago. These s tor s run through from the Range to tho next parallel street south. Tho store at the corner ol Prioleau and Vendue Range is owned by estate of Napier, and the .next by estate Hiss roon. The wall which fell was the partition waU between these stores, and it fell almost entirely within the site of Napier's store, a portion <aiH?ir? on the sidewalk on Vendue Bange and a smaller portion on the- sidewalk on tho parallel street .south, but none reaching Prioleau street, which, by measurement ot tho City Surveyor, ls fifty-two feet from the cost face of said wan. Had Frees been with his dray in either of the three streets upon which this store was si na ted, neither he nor his mule would have been injured, whereas both were killed; but ho was entirely within the walls of Napier's store, where he hod for some time been in tee habit of leaving his dray at night. Ho was in the act of putting his mule to the dray when the accident occurred. As Boon as I heard of it I went to tho place, and though the body of Freon had been re? moved, the dray and dead mule were stiU there to point out the spot. So far as the verdict of the Jury is concerned, I might stop here, but it is as well to go on and slate the rule by which I have been governed in this matter of pulling down walls ofter a fire. ~ But very few walls are pulled down by direction of the authorities that objections are not raised by the owners of tho property, and for this reason I have only had those thrown down which endangered the lives of persons pass? ing on the streets. Interior walls, the fniHT,r> of which would not affect the street, I do not conceive as coming under my jurisdiction. In this particular case, however, to show that the au? thorities were not remiss, I would state that in July last, those walls were reported as unsafe. The Agent of Estate or Napier was immediately nolified by tho City Inspector and he very promptly authorized the Inspector to employ properjpariies to pull them down. This was done; the.walls wer? pulled down to what was deemed by others a point of safety, and the bill was paid by the agent.', ginee'that time no report of the insecurity cf any of these walls has been made, and I naturally supposed theygrere safe. After a flin examination of circumstances and locality I do most honestly acquit myself of any bflEe in this matter (I say myself, as the blame, if-any, would Justly attach to me, and no one-else), and, without further com? ment, leave tho matter for the decision of the community.
