LITTLE ROSE, She comes with fairy footsteps SofU/ their echoes fall And ber shadow plays like Sommer shade Across the garden wau. The golden Light is dancing bright 'Mid the maxes of her hair. And her fair young locks are waving free To the wooing of the air. Like a sportful fawn she boundeth So gleefully along ; As a wild young bird she caroleth The burden of a song. The Summer flowers are clustering thick Around her dancing feet. And on her cheek tho Summer breeze Is breathing soft and sweet. The very sunbeams seem to linger Above tho h?h head. And the wild flowers at her coming Their richest fragrance shed.* And oh ! how lovely light and fragrance Mingle in the Ufe within; Ohl how fondly do they nestle Bound the soul that knows no sin. She comes-the spirit of our childhood A thing of mortal birth. Yet bearing still the breath of Heaven, To redeem her from the earth. She comes In bright-robed innocence, Unsoiled by blot or blight. And passe th Dy our wayward path, A gleam of angel fight Oh 1 blessed things are children 1 The gifts of heavenly love; They stand betwixt our wort c-hearta And better things above; . They Uuk us with the spirit-world By purity and truth. And keeps our hearts still fresh and ye ung With the presence of their youth. [Blackwood"t Magazine. PROCEEDINGS OF CITY COUNCIL.

OFFICE CITY CIVIL ENGINEER, I Cm HALL, CHARLESTON, August 13,1867. ) Tb the Bon. Mayor and Aldermen , of the City of C liar teston : GENTLEMEN : I would respectfully ask of your hon? orable body the permission to have constructed, at each grating or the diagonal lateral drains, a trapped inlet cf earthenware, cast iron, or brick, for the purpose of confining the evaporations esjejajng from them. The very offensive and unwholesome effluvia issuing from these drains, except where they are connected with the tidal drains, has in? duced me to look into the manner of pre? venting it. From the reports of the Commis? sions on Sewerage of various cities, I perceive that their aim has been particularly directed to the accomplishment of this end, and of all modes that of the trapped inlets is very strongly urged. I have required them to be used by private par? ties, to whom I have furnished specifications for drains agreeably to Ordinance, and from the effec? tiveness obtained, lam induced to recommend their nae for the city drains. No argument is needed to show your hon? orable body how effective such means are; very many of yon may have had them built of masonry in connection with yon yard drains, and the advantages thereby obtained, which you fahy appreciate, ? ill no doubt induce you to give a favorable consideration to their use, particular? ly where the laterals are connected with the main drains, which at times, from the action of great heat, produce an evaporation of the gases from patna matter neceesarUy contained in sud drains, which is as unwholesome as it is offensive. /They will be principally needed where the laterals do not connect with the tidal drains, and the expenditure of a small sum of money will repay us in point of I health, besides being a permanent improvement to our drainage system. In addition, I beg leave to call your attention to the means of obtaining sufficient and suitable ma? terial for the filling of our low streets and lots. This has, for some time, occupied my thoughts. Some of our streets, from which filling matter has been obtained, are now so low that it would not be advisable to remove any more from them; it is proper, then, to see what can be done elsewhere. To meet this necessity, I would, therefore, recom? mend to your honorable, body the employment of ' a suitable machine, which can be hired and alter? ed at a very small cost, to be used for the purpose of removing the large accumulation of plnff mud from the docks or city marsh lani-ht, and depositing the same upon the wharves-this all to be done by the machine itself, thence to be taken away in boxed cara, to'be run upon a tram road, said road will not require that the surface of the streets should be disturbed in the least degree, bat-is simply to be laid upon the surface of tho ground. It will be formed of scant? lings, the ends of the pieces connected together or locked in such a manner as to be disconnected at pleasure, and removed from one street to another, and thereby carry the material and dump it in such localities where filling material is needed. The motive power to be used will be that of a single horse or mule. The amount paid for excavating docks Will large? ly pay for the material and labor, and I am sure it can be made a source of revenue rather than of expense to the city. in point of health such material is not objec? tionable, as I have it from the best authorities on hygiene, and from the same practice in other cities. I hope your honorable body will refer these mat? ters to a committee with whom I may more fully communicate. Very respectfully submitted. LOUISJ.BARBpT, City Ensrineer. The following communication was received, and on motion, laid over under the 18th Rule : ' THE COLLEGE OF CHARLESTON, 8. C., ) August 13.1867. J The Eon, P. C. GaUlard, Mayor cf Charleston : DEAS 8ra :-After considerable discussion be? tween Mr. W. D. Porter, in behalf of the College and the officers of the Internal Revenue of the United States, in which every opportunity was afforded of presenting our views, the Department bas decided that the Baynard Endowment of City of Charleston six per cent stock is subject to the succession tax, under the Act of Congress of 1862. We had hoped for an exemption, but deem it Soper, after due consideration, to offer no fur er objection. The officers have, with a jost consideration of the depressed condition of the stock when our rights accrued, assessed the tax at thirteen hun? dred and twenty-eight dollars ($1328), payable daring the current month. We desire now to make the payment, bat the College is without the means. The interest on the Baynard fond, excepting a small balance, bas seen applied to the support of tho College. The principal is entire, and wo wish to koep it so. To raise money for the tax, by u sale of stock at present rates, would result in a serious reduction of the fund. We feel assured that neither the honorable tho Council, nor the community, in their appreciation of the nobb gift, and the wiso and generous giver, would willingly have his endowment reduced. Permit mo, therefore, to submit, through you, to the consideration of the honorario the City Council, the relief of the fund by an assumption of the tax. I have tho honor to bo, very respectfully. Your obedient servant. DANIEL RAVEN EL, President Trustees of the College.
