THE LONG TO-MOKROW.
Old age, that s tr dus the web of lile.
And checks that shuttle's easer paces.
Bringing rest from all the world's ram strife,
And lesvOH an oki man to old 1 tees.
And still my heart beats warmly yet.
Although grandchildren play before mo,
And I can easily forgot
That eighty summers ha TB passed o'er me.
Sweet maiden with the downcaatsyee,
To whom my grandson gully chatters,
And tree %a np the low replies
Yon nv e on many foolish mattera:
I wonder, when a dearer name
Be whispers through those shining tresses,
If yon believe I've- done the same,
And thrilled a heart with my caresses?
And when my youngest joined his ship.
So tearful at the sad home faces,
BBtraTat at ni? mother's quivering lip.
The while he sighed for far-off faces
I wonder If he ever thought
I had my dreams of death and glory,
Bat ail rared hain have sternly taught
The worthy of that hercio story.
And when the merry jest gees round,
With aparkhng wine In ample measure,
k?? woman's sil vor voice has crowned
The mirth with sweeter, dearer pleasure
Ah. Mule do the youngsters know
How wrinkles chock the tongue's beguiling,
And that my voice had once sweet flow,
To charm a maiden into smiling.
And often in the mazy throng.
Wheo little feet are lightly dancing.
Andas each maiden whirls along,
The bonny eyes give sweeter glancing,
I alt apart and Idly dream
That my fair youth has not departed,
?S other hopea ana fancies seem
To leave me far more tender hearted.
My life's gay spring had many joya.
The tumma: brought mo Love's first rose i.
Tho autumn gav? me my bravo boya,
1 walt until the winter closes.
Baan season baa ht order brought
Tho ming Brig flowers of joy and sorrow,
And masT sn oarnest lesson taught
And so I wait the long To-morrow.

. City Had, Charleston, June 18th, 1867. j
lb the Honorable Mat or and Aldermen
of tie City of Charleston :
GENTLEMEN : I have ihe honor to report, from
examinations made of the "South sea wall of tho
Battery, built or concrete, that I find the wall in a
condition which requires your early attention and
action for its preservation. I beg leave to submit
the following statement as tho result of my close
and careful examination of it :
The lace of the wall in soma places shows large
cavities, and in others is much honey-combed.
The depths of the openings at some points are
much greater than at others ; and from the largo
quantity of sand which with every tide is carried
can we have the proof that tho breaches have, by
the torce of water, increased and reached the earth
enbanknierit itself, of which tho concrete work
finns the retaining wall. Every tide carries away
several solid yards of ear .h. From a close ii;spoc
k tionotone oivity I estimate that from 12 to 15
^cubic yards of tho earthwork have been washe 1 in
mm ?mw m-km ? f hi? roser be readilv Derc.ived bv the
rapid settlement and sinking of the surface of tho
shell walk in two or throe places.
From time to time a gre.. I many loads of good
bank sand have been used for filling np and level?
ling the walk, under thc supposition that this set?
tlement was but ordinary and not caused from
some defects in the retaining wall ; but a thorough
examination has satisfied me on this point, and it
would therefore bo but a waste of good material to
refill and reform tho bank, until we can repair tho
chief cause of tho evil.
The shapes of tho cavities ore of much larger
dimensions laterally than vertically, and the de?
struction caused by tho tide water, together with
the percolation of rain water through tho earth?
work is daily increasing m depth, and extending
more along the base of tho wall than elsewhere.
This is to be accounted for particularly in the
stronger force and action of the rising and falling
tide upon tho wall at that point of elevation.
The cavities higher up on the face of tho wall
are circular in shape, aud from two to three foot
in diameter, and the wear at these places is moro
rapid in tho depth than it is laterally.
I respectfully recommend soino immediate
action on thc part of your honorable bady, and if
it be your pleasure a specification setting forth the
manner of doing thc repairs will bo drawn up aud
proposals for tho svork received.
ADV repairs, howover, that may from time to
time bo mado to this work, though they bo of per?
manent and durable character, will bo but audi?
tions to a structure that is of temporary duration.
Tho proper course would be to construct a perma?
nent and durable sea wall of rock work, were tho
city in prosperous condition and able todo so.
Very respectfully submitted.
Your obedient servant,
LOUIS J. BARB OT,
City Civil Engineer.

REPOSTS OF COMMITTEES.
Committee on Streets-Alderman Gerdts, Ch all?
man.
Tho Committee on Streets, to whom was re?
ferred tho c immunication of Messrs. Robert T.
Chisolm ft Sons, in relation to tho causeway or
street leading to Chisolm s Mill, west end of Trade!
street, beg loave to report:
That they have oonferr: d with tho City Attor?
ney, and, after examination of tho journals and
records, it appears by tho proceedings of Council,
31st August, 1847, that Council accepted a proposi?
tion from Mr. Alexander H. Chisolm, tho previous
owner of the mills, to contribute $3000 toward the
repairs of the causeway.
The repairs wero completed by Mr. Chisolm and
approved by Council; and on tho 5th November,
1847, the said sum of 13000 was paid to Mr. A. H.
Chisolm. _
The report further B ta tea that Mr. Alexander H.
Chisolm offered, as a part of the arrangement, to
convey to tho City Council seven feet in width of
his land ou the north side ol the causo wa y aud
running tho whole length thereof, for the purpose
of widening tho six jet, from S3 to 40 feet; and also
engaged to erect ton (io; houses two stor.'os high
on Iiis land on tho north sido of tho causeway, stat?
ing that these erections would contribute in the
way of tixes to tho City Treasury, and would add
to the security of the northern side of tho cause?
way.
i Tho offer or contract has not been found, and is
probably among the lost papers of tho city. But
there is on record in tho Mesne Conveyance Office,
on Scpfember 20th, 1847, (Book 311, pago 242,) tho
deed of the strip of land which Mr. Chisolm
agreed to convey to tho city. The description is
as follows: "All that lot of land lying to the west
ut Savage street and north of Trodd street, meas?
uring aud containing in width seven (7) feet from
f north to south, and running from tho west lino of
Savage street to the edee of the channel of Ashley
i River, butting and bounding north on land of A.
H. Chisolm, south on Trodd street, east on Savage
. street, and wost on channel ol Ashley River." Ino
City Attorney has ordered for Council a copy or
[ this deed, as the original has not been found and
, is probably destroyod.
This causeway is tho continuation of 'fradd
! street and a part tboroof. Tho preservation of the
? street js of importance to Council to whom bolong

tho only means of access to Chisolm's Mill, which

. I the last mooting of Council whon our application
I was road to havo tho weat end of Tra ld strcot ro

I willi Mr. Alexander H. Chisolm, who owns sundry
I water lots on tho north or Trodd street. In those
I lots we have no interest whatever. Our property
hes at the end of fradd street, and as the asaoss

' I Alderman Stoinmeyer, Chairman.
. I The Committee on Brick and Woodoo. Buildings,
j to which wai referred .communication of J: L.
Johnson, reporting the erection ot a wooden build
ling on Trodd street, between New aud Logan
1 I streets, beg leave to report :
I That thero is an Act of the Legislature by which
I I the erection of wc edon buddings in the city is do-1
j dared to be a public nuisance, and may be abated
; I after conviction.
? I There is also an Ordinance of the City Counoil I
I affixing a pecuniary penalty to tho oreotion of
II wooden buildings in violation of the law.
I j The remedy in the first case ia by indictment in I
II the name of the State, and in the second caso by
11 civil suit for the fine or penalty m the namo of tho
I City Council.
' I The Committee are of opinion that the erection
I of the building reported is a violation both of the
I State law and of the City Ordinance, bub under a
I misapprehension of tho law, the assent of Council
II was given to the cree.ion of this building, the par- I
! ir. cul ors of which are explained in tho report ofthe
I Committee on the petition of John Kenny, which
11 r^T>ort waa adopted by Council on tho 21st May,
' I The Committeo are advised that tho action of
11 Council, by assenting to the erection of tho build
I icg, would bar the recovery, in Ute name of tho
City Council, of the pecuniary penalty under the I
I Ordinance, because it can hardly bo supposed that
any Court would allow a party to punish an act
which he had authorized; it would be useless,
therefore, and unreasonable, for the City Council
' j to institute a suit in this casa,
i I State law is not under tho control of Council, I
11 and any citizen who may think himself aggrieved I
I hos a right to make his affidavit before a magia- I
: I trate, and have the question of nuisance tried bo- I

Special Committee on tho Fire Department- I
I Alderman Whilden, Chairman.
MINORITY BEPOBT.
, The Special Committee on tho Fire Department,
to whom was reierrod tho communication from
the Board of Fire Masters, m referonce to granting
to the Palmetto Steam Firo Company the same
compensation for engiuoor, a new reel, and six
hundred foot of hose, as is now allowed to other
Steam Eire Companies in tho Department, report
that on the 3d of July, 1866, the following r?solu
tion was passod by Council,* and on tho 4th De?
cember, 1866, for reasons stated, tho compensation
was granted to tho Marion Eire Engine Company.f
With the resolution passed July 3d, 1866, and
with no reason before tho committeo why they
should change their views, they aro compelled to
report unfavorably. It is brno that it is difficult
for the Hand Engines to maintain their organizo- ;
tiona when in competition with the Steamers; but
the number of steam apparatuses have already i
gono beyond what this Council thought was pru?
dent, and other Companies are awaiting our decision j
on this question before ordering Steamers; and, un- ,
loss Conned is disposed to grant tho aid to all the :
Companies that will probably apply for it, it is, in
the opinion of the Committee, advisable to decline ]
the aid asked for. W. G. WHILDEN.
E. W. MARSHALL, ]
.Resolved, That the loan heretofore offered to tho .e
Companies furnishing Steam Fire Engines for the
Charleston Fire Department, bo not granted to any other
Companies except those that have already procured or
ordered new engines, namely: the ?tna, Charleston Fire
Company of Ax men, Phoenix, Washington and Young
America, there being a sufficient number of Steam En?
gines in tho Department, or already ordered.
tThe Special Committee on tho Fire Department re?
spectfully report favorably on tho application of the
"Marion Fire Engino Company," to bo placed on thc
ame footing as regards pay, boso and bose reel, with
other Companies having Steam fire Engines.
Your Committeo would not have recommended this
application, but deemed it advisable on account of the
locaUon of this Company, being in a part of the dty far
removed from any other steam apparatus; but at the
same Hmo, thoy would call attention of thoso Companies
having Hand Engines, to the resolution of Council ia
reference to the introducing of auy more Steam Fire En?
gines in the Department
BTAJOBITY BEPOBT.
The undersigned, of the Special Committee of
tho Fire Department, would respectfully recom?
mend to Council to grant tho potition of the Pal?
metto Fire Engine Company, asking to lie placed
on tho samo footing as tho other companies in the
Department.
Unless the desired aid is extended to this Com?
pany, its efficiency must necessarily be much im?
paired if not entirely destroyed, os its funds aro
adequate to the purchase of the needed appa
,tUB. they having boen entirely absorbed in tho
?rchose of then* very superior engine.
In viow of tho fact that the Company does not
ik for the appropriation made to the other
?amers, but only to be pitted in a condition to
inder valuable aid in assisting conflagrations,
te undersigned would respectfully urgo Council
) grant the assistanoo prayed for, so soon as tho

On motion, the consideration of the reports
ere laid over to the next regular mooting.
Tho Committee ou Licenses made a report on
ic petition of sundry liquor dealers, asking a ro?
ue ti on of the price of license?, ?cc., but after
rard withdrew it upon tho following statement
indo by tho Mayor:
The Mayor said that since tho last meeting of
louncil, Le had a conference with General Sickles
nd General Clitz as to the interpretation of tho
th section of Ordor No. 32, roferring to licenses,
lie interpretation put upon that section by
fenoral Sickles excludes tho granting of licoDsos
0 any but regular hotels. Restaurants and all
ither bar-rooms are excluded. The General was
io decided in tho opinion ho expressed, that for
Council to grant any license other than thoso iudi
?atod, would bo a disobedienco of tho order. Tho
arder savs, the number of licenses to be granted,
md the ices to bo charged, shall be regulated and
jollected by tho municipal or town authorities,
rhe Gonerol desired to bo informed whon Council
lotcrmined to whom licenses should bo granted,
ks the number would be limited to perhaps six or
right, it was a question, with so great a monopoly
glaced in the hands of a fow, whether the price of
icenses should not be increased. Upon his sug?
gestion General Sickle < had readily assented to
udulge the privilesro of selling to the parties
liconsod up to tho 30th of June. After that date
he was given to understand that the ordor would
be most rigorously enforced. He took occasion to
mention this in Council ne one of the modes of
riving notice to parties interested, and also to give
The information to Council.
Committee on Railroads-Alderman Marshall,
Chairman.
The Committee on Railroads, to whom was re?
ferred tho memorial of the President and Directors
of tho Blue Ridge Railroad Company, beg leave
most rospeotfully to submit tho following report:
The City of Charleston ?B tho holder of ono mil?
lion and forty-nine thousand dollars in the paid-up
stock of the Company, tho whole of which will bo
lost unless some plan bo devised by which rho
work on the road can bo resumed, and its ultimate
completion insured. Tboy are of tho opinion also,
that in tho very helpless condition of the country,
the plan suggested by the Legislature, and ac sot
forth in the memorial of tho Comoany, presenta
tho only reasonable probability of this being ac?
complished. New parties and additional capitol
muBt bo brought to its aid, and in the plan pro?
posed. The inducements offered to capitalists,
with the competition that exists among tao cities
of tho Wost to roach thc seaboard of the Southern
States, and the increasing importance attached to
thia connection, as the roads of the West approach
us on the north, it is not unreasonable to hope
that, sooner or later, the desired cid will be ob?
tained. All all events thc plan proposed furnishes
the only reasonablo hope or prospect of securing
the city and Stato inveatm-mts. or of aoenring to
tho city and State tho fruits that were expected
from them. Tho enterprise has iosi> nothing of its
importance since its inception, commercially or
pofitleally. On the contrary, recent events have
moie strongly demonstrated both-while the
famine that has prevailed in thc State (tho second
in tho short period of little moro than twonty
years) painfully enforces upon us the necessity of
nea... and choapor connections with tho grain
producing valleys of thc Mississippi and its tribu?
tarios. Your Commiiteo, thorefore, beg leavo to

And whereas tho City Council are desirous of {
aiding in the completion of the Blue Ridge Rail?
road by any reasonablo arrangement that will con?
duce to that end,
Now be it ordained, That the City Council of
Charleston do horeby consent to dofer their claim
for dividends on all stock now held by tho corpo?
ration in tho Bluo Ridge Railroad Company in
favor of any new atock that may bo duly taken in
said Company, so far as and until auch new stock?
holders shah receive dividends at a rate not ex?
ceeding soven per cont pur annum upon tho
amounts of their stock reapeetively, provided
however that if tho earnings of the Company,
which are divided as profits, shall be iu excess of
iho amount necessary to pay said preferred divi?
dends ou tho new stock, auch oxoosa shall be ap?
plied in equal ratio to tho old and the new stock;
and provided also that tho stock held by the City
Council shall not be subject to any additional as?
sessment.
The Mayor made tho following report, which was
adopted:
REPOST.
In submitting their report upon tho communi?
cation of Dr. J. J. Ch iso" in, President .Medical So?
ciety and Chairman of Trastees of Boper Hos?
pital, tho Boord of Heal th doom it due to them?
selves and thia body to place the whole subject
matter before thc community in auch form aa to
enable them to arrive ot correct conclusions, and
in doing so will consider the several pointa Lu the
ordor thoy appear in his communication.
In January lost, when the majority report of tho
committee alluded to was made, the accommoda?
tions in the City Hoopital woro bobevod to be am?
ple; but, in tho opinion of tho Chief Surgeon of
the Bureau, additional accommodations wore
deemed necessary, to avoid the risk of tho Hos
Eital itsolf becoming a source of disease from
eing too crowded. When it is borne in mind
that about four-fifths of the means of maintaining
our health department are obtained from the Gov?
ernment through him, it must be apparent that
hie requisitions wero not to be slighted, and tho
B:ard of Health, at a meeting held on 3d May
lost, after due consideration of tho matter, and in
the exorcise of tho authority given it by tho ordi?
nance 08tabliahing the health department, directed
the Mayor and Registrar to provide additional hos?
pital accommodations.
In doing this, thoy could not approach the
Trna toca of the Roper Hospital, as those gentle?
men had formally declined accepting the resolu?
tion of Council adopted in February lost (author*
?zing tho Registrar to Bend patienta to tho Roper
Hospital), through thou* Chairman, whose letter
woe read to Council on the 20th February, and is
recorded on tho journals of Council; and se. on div,
They hod previously stated that they could not.
under tho will of Mr. Roper, pait with tiie control
of their hospital; and iu order to attach that hos?
pital in any way to our Health Department, it is
required by tho chief medical officer of the Bureau
that it should be placed under bis control.
With regard to the extent of accommodations in
tho two hospitals, were the same rulo appliod to
the Roper Hospital aa to the City Hospital, limit?
ing tho number of beda to the cubic foet m the
several wards, the accommodations there would
fall short of tho number stated in the communica?
tion of tho Chairman of the Trustees.
Aa regards the additional cxponso, it waa un?
avoidable, but tho Board adopted that modo
which, they believe, would provo most oconomicaL
Had tho additional accommodation not been pro?
vided, hospitals for freedmon would have bet n
opened by tho Medical Department of the Burean,
and tho city would then havo had to pr?vido ra?
tions, medicines, furniture, fuel, ?cc, in short,
everything, almost the entire of which ia now fur
nished by the government. Tho Board are still of
opinion that they acted for tho boat interests of
tho city, in incurring an additional cxponso, esti?
mated at about $2000 per annum, to maintain tho
present arrangement, rather than bo obliged to
furnish hoapital accommodations for tho white
poor, wholly at tho expense of the city.
The chairman, in his communication, pata
tho expenso down as nothing, had wo availed
oursolvca of tho Roper Hospital. By refer?
ence to tho minority roport of the Spocial
Committee, malo to Council on tho 15th Jan?
uary lost, it will be seen that "tho Trasteos
have at their disposai an annual incomo of
hotween $6000 and $7000 which can bo in-1
creased to $10,000, wheu from tho resumption of |
tho payment of interest by Stato and corporate
bodies on their stocka and bouda, and from other
Bourcos, they aro in receipt of their ontiro means."
Aa this report waa made by one of the Trustees,
who is also tho Treasurer of the Board, wo hove
certain evidence of tho cxtont of their means, and
from our experience of the last seventeen months,
we aro satisfied that that amount would not suffice
to support tho hospital on a acalc adequate to tho
wanta of the city. In auch au event, ia it not like?
ly that the city would bo called upon to aupply the
additional moana necessary to conduct the hospi?
tal ? Either thia would be tho caso, or tho city
open its own hospitals, and in eithor event the ex?
pense would be greater lhan under the present ar?
rangement. It must bo borne in mind that this
refers only to hospital expenses, and were the ar?
rangement made with the Roper Hoapital, tho city
would still be at the expense of maintaining ita
health districts.
Again, tho chad man says tho only expense of j
keeping tho sick in their institution would be for
supplies, and aa these aro obtained from govern?
ment, the city would bo at no expense to furnish
them. To this wo reply that tho government as?
sorts its right of control in all cases whero it fur?
nishes means, and were wo to sond patients to tho
[toper Hospital, when not under government con?
trol, and furnish them with supplies obtained from
:he government, all the supplies now furnished
ivould be withdrawn.
The chairman concludes by saying "I havo cvory
reason to know, that had tho privilege boon asked
)f the Government officora to be allowed to trans?
fer the aupplies wi.h the white patients, it would
lave boen granted." Tho Board regret that a
:hargo so grave should be made against tho execu
;ivo officora of tho Board, if not against tho Board
tself, and in a manner ao positive, but they are
issured upon tho highest, aud in this case, the
>nly competent authoiity, that tho Chairman of
:ho Trusteos has been told by the medical officer,
:hat snpplioa would bo furnished thoir hospital if
t wore placed under bia control. Thia condition
lot having boen acceded to, supplies have not boen
iirnishod. It seems, thou, thc f ai hue to obtain
emplies is owing to tho action of the Trustees and
?ot to that of thia Board or ita offici ra.
Tuc Board will conclude by recommending that
Council take no action upon tim communication.

excced.ngly quiet community.

SHOOTTNO AFFRAY.- TWO negroes. Calvin Kelly
and Jefferson Segare, wore arrested in tho upper
part of the District recen cly and passed through
this place yesterday, en rovie to Bennettsville jail,
charged with an attempt at theft and murder.
Tho circumstances, as wo loam them, are as fol?
lows : On tho night of tho 14th instant, they at?
tempted to break into tho crib of a Mr.
Sogurs. Tho noise attracted the atten?
tion of Capt. Dove Segars, who went ont
to the crio to ascertain tho canso. While
standing near the crib he was fired upon, tho shot
entering tho hip and pi educing a dangerous if not
mortal wound. From the size of the wound, and
the fact that the shot entered in a wad, the person
firing tho gun must havo been very close. Jeffer?
son Segars was arrea tel, a knife and nat being
found which was identified as belonging to bim.
Soon after his arrest he confessed the fact that ho
was under the crib, and that Calvin Kelly was ou
the watch, and fired the gun. These are the facts,
as wo learn them from Sheriff Johnson, who escort?
ed the villains to jail.-Anderson Intelligencer.

chasing to any extent, Imparts quito a di U aspect to the

at nevon per cent, but occasionally there Li a transaction
