FAST-During the issue of our last edition from tho press ?n accident occurred to our engine, which rendered it peraajendj and forever use? less. Thia morning cur motive povrer is an en? tirely new engine, which in the sheri space of eight houri bas boen transported, piece by piece, to our establishment, put together bv skilful hands, and is now part and parcel of tho varied machinery of the office. To have accomplished this grand CJUO tie mai ?, which his obviated tho neoessity cf a single hour's delay in the regular issue 0: tho NEWS, would hevo been impossible without the generous co-operation of some of the bejt artisans ID Charleston, and we accordingly tender our thanks to Messrs. Ca? meron Sz Berkley and to the builders, Messrs. John F. Taylor & Co., of the Phoenix Iron Works, of Charleston, as tho "federal head" of a. corps of the most energetio workers, and to Mr. 1?. Brady, who transportad the engine promptly to our office, forth? Ekili, rapidity and perfection wiih which they here labored in the cause of tho public. It ia a Twit worthy of rejord, and notwithstanding the largo oe tlay necessitated by thc accident, we aro almost gild that tho opportunity bas Leon af? forded us of demonstrating what we can and mean to do in the service of our friends-tho People. DIED-A negro living on Morris street died on Monday ni 'ht undor suspioious circumstances. Th? case will be investigated at once by tho proper authorities. _ CO-OPSBATTV? STOBKS.-In another oolumrr will be found an introductory lotter apon tho subject of Co-operative Stores, to which we call special at? tention. The 8.ibjoctis ono in which tho DA?LT Kelt's baa taker, peculiar interest, and we will gi ve place with pleasure to any further communications in reference to a mutter which is considered t ) be of so great a consequence to our community. TH* CITY.-Tho quiet that reigned throughout the city yesterday, and the peace and good order that was preserved, were proofs that, in point of morality, no reconstruction is needed. Notwith? standing the novelty of the election, and tho large number of uneducated persons who ware depos? iting their firsi votes, there was no attempt at any disturbance, ajd no arrests wero made. The clos? ing of the bar rooms may have produced this happy result, as there waa no opportunity to fall from grace; but the past history cf this city shows that her people live sober, moral and reli? gious lives, and a small occurrence like tho pres? ent election is not sufficient to lead them astray. A YACHT r-aiVES TO SEA ASD NEARLY LOST. The yacht Fiora, five tons, owned by Hr. G. C. Kirby, of Beaufort, sailed for Savannah on Mondiy night last, with a cargo of rice end ground-nuts, having aboard tho owner, Eugene Enday, and two colored men. A gale soon sprang up, and salo3 and rigging wore carried away. Every man aboard worked w tu a will, b it before morning all gave up in despair. About midnight on Monday the F.ora was driven towards, and insight of, thc light ship oft Martin's. Industry. Thia w^s soon left astern; and all r.ppoarad lost, when a Boston schooner hove in sight and the crew ol the Flora was providentially saved. TD GOOD OLD TUIES.-A visitor to the Hotels last night, was forcibly reminded 0! the good old times when greenbacks iran unknown and busi? ness flourished. Tho streets for the past two days have presented quito a lively appearance, from the number of strange faces that wera seen in every direction. This influx has boen caused principally by tho meeting of tho Grand Lodge in this city, bat the inducements now offered by the Theatre and Circus havo caused many persons from tho intenor to visit the city by the score. The large lobby of the Charleston Hotel was crowd? ed last night with guests, and tho buzz of conver? sation and ths bustle of new arrivals, were choc-r? ing sounds, that forcibly recalled tho past. As th? season advances, the travel to tho city will ba considerably increased, and will ena '. ? the Hotels to show lists ol arrivals that will compare favora? bly with those of pannier days. ?*TE-T- 0?

SELLING A YOTEE.-Ona of the enfranchised, who was not used to thc wiles of the world, accopted a gentleman m tho street yesterday with tho mod? es: request that ho would buy hie ticket. Somo sur;,n.:o betas; expressed at this novel demand, he waa rrquo?tcd to explain, and thus unbosomed himself: "Yon seo, boss, I stays on John Island, an a man gim mo too ticket an tah me to put ono in do box, an to call di oder in Charleston. Iee bm ail ober de place, and doy all has dere own tick? ets, au i'U Peli dis now for a loaf o' bread." It waa not considered advisable to open tho eyes of the wandering voter; but ho was politely informed that his ticket was not saleable in that quarter. Cuffee opened his eyes, gave a despond.ng grunt, and went on his weary way hjnting a bid for his ticket. JOHN ROBERSON'S GBEAT SHOW.-This truly great combination of tho wonders of nature and art waa visited by an immense concourse of people yester? day, all of wnoin, without a dissenting voice, rendered their tribute of praise to the great show? man. The large size <*f the tent did not deter the people from taking it by storm, and once inside, they were loth to leave, but gave themselves np to enjoyment. John's actors are masters of their professions, and thorough experts in gymnastics. Their feats of horsemanship and the agility which they exhioit are surprising, and command the ap? plause of their audience. Mdlle. Allice is the star of thc troupe, and has already made hosts of friends during her visit, of the others it is useless to epcak, as they are to be sean in order to be appre preciated. The menagerie, the trained animals and the side shows, are each worthy of attention, and arc each so perfect, that the name of combi? nation is no longer a matter of surprise. REGULAS MEETING or Crrr COUNCIL.-Present, his Honor tho Mayor, Aldermen Bavenel, Gerdts, Small, O'Neil, Stemmcyer, Olney, Oakes, Easton, Cosgrove, Courtenay, Pringle, Willis. Tho minutes of the last meeting were read and confirmed. 'l he Mayor stated that in the present instance he deamed it best to vary the general routine of business by reading to Council tho opinion of the City Attorney on the legality of acts done by them while holding over: Bon. P C. Gaillard, Mayor : SIB: I understand the question to be, whether, m case of the city election not being held, the Mayor and Aldermen can hold over beyond the limits ot their 'erm, so as to be legally capable of transacting public business. The Act of 1783 is the Charter or fundamental law of thu Corporation. Section 8 of that Aot provides that, on the first Monday of September 1784, and in every year thercaft r, there shall be an election for Wardens, at'tor ten days' cotice, and the persons so chosen may take the oath of qualification, allegiance and office, before tho Intendant for the time being, alter winch they ahaU be fully qualified to act as Wardens, or sit as members of the City Counoil; but after a new election of \Varde\s none of tho former Wardens shall sit as members of the City Couned, unlesB they shall have been re-elected. Section 9 provides that the person chosen Inten? dant s hall take the oath or qualification in tho presence of the Wardens, uutil which, tho former intendant shall continue to act, and so forth. In relation to the Mayor, the provision is ex? ploit, that the Intendant shall act uutil the new one takes the oath of office. In i elation to Wardens, it is provided that, "af? ter a new election ot Wardens" none ol tho former Wardens shall sit as members of the City Council, unless they shall have been re-elected." Hore the implication id clear that they may sit unt? a new olection, otherwise the provision would have been nugatory. If their right of service ceased abso? lutely .ipon the expiration of their term, it would have been unnecessary to prescribe that they should not sit after election unless re-elected. The uegation of the riuht to sit alter election is an af arinanco of the right to sit an ? eleotion. It is to bo observed that there is a difference- be? tween the Intendant and the Wardens. The In? tendant may sit alter ?section, and until bia suc? cessor qualities by taking the oath. But the War? dens cannot hold after election, although their successors have not qualified. The purpose is manifestly that all should hold over until a new election, und that the Intendant should continue to hold unt? "the new Coanod was organized, or, at least, until his successor was in condition to qualify them. .here is no term of office specified in the char? ier. By subsequent Acts, the title of Intendant and W.-.rdeus was changed to Mayor and Alder? men, and the term of office was fixed, first for one year, and then lor two years. But there are no rcstriativc wonk, nor do the provisions in the charter appear lo havo been repealed or altered. In the Act of 1852, vhi.-h changed the time of holding the election and extended the term trom one to two years, it was provided that "all the laws now of force in relation to the election of I Mayor and Aldermen of tho city of Charleston, except so far as hereby repealed, be and continue of force." Independently of the charter, I think the better opinion is that municiual officers, even where their tenn is fixed, may hold over until a new election, to prevent a dissolution of the corporation. If there bj restrictivo words, such as "for ono year only," or for "ono year and no longer," the result wo?id be otherwise. Ia the caso of Foot vs. Prowse. Mayor of Truro (2 Strange, 625. and 2 Bro .va Vari Cases, 269), a o?anse in a charter which directe..1 that Aldermen should be ohosen annual? ly, was ueld to be only directory and not to deter? mine tho office at the end of the year. In Angel amt Ames, ou Corporations, the rois, after an ex? amination of cases, is stated thus ia section 143 : "Without doubt a statute or a bve-hiw, or even an appointment, may be so restrictive es to terminate an annual office at the end oi the year, but an elec? tion to office for a year has never been considered ,45 one ol this description." There ore no restric? tive words in the Acts rel? Ung to the terms of j Ma-, or and Aldermen. Although there may be some doubt under the cases at common law, I th nk all doubt is set at rest in this case by the terms of the charter, and tbat in the event of non-eleotion the Mayor and Aldermen may bold over until a new election. lWpectluUy, W. D. PORTER, City Attorney. I concur in the above opinion. W. ALSTON PRINGLE, City Recorder. The applications of sundry parties for licenses were referred to the Committee on Licenses. The return of the Harbor Master for the month of October, $456.66, was received as information. The bill of Ed. Collins, showing statement of arcouuts paid and due for building the Tradd Street Causeway, was read with a communication showing bb at an under estimate had been made, and asking additional compensation. The bill of Mr. John Russell for books and sta? tionery furnished tho High School, was referred to the Committee on Accounts. Alderman Riven el, flem the Committee on Waya and Means, made the following report: The Committee of Ways and Moans, to whom was referred the memorial of the Sergeants and Privates of the Police, report, that they have given tbe matter their careful consideration. Theonlyre SOttrce by which means can bo obtained, will be by requiring tho Sheriff to proceod to the last resort ot enforcing the payment of taxes past due. Harsh a.< it may seem, ahd reluctant as tho Committee is, io recommend this course, noue other presents it oclf to tlieai. Atnoug those in default, are many upen wham it Trill fall hard, huton the other hand, ibero aro many who could meet their taxes, were tUov disposed to do so.

Thc Committee will conclude by recommending the adoption of the following resolution : ReS'-ived, That the City Shoriff bo instructed to enforce the executions aga;nat defaulters by sal-1, ns wrescribed by law.

Mr. Hoyt is prepared to represent it to our commuuity as ono of the best advertising medium in the State. THE ELECION FOR TETE CONVENTION.-INCI? DENTS OF THE DAY.-SIGHTS AROUND TUB POLLS. -The election farce was opened yesterday morn? ing at 9o'clook, and, tor a few hours, the different polls wero thronged with an eager crowd of dar? kies, ail anxious to display their rights as citi? zens by depositing their maiden votes. An elec? tion day has always been considered a necessary evil, and to avoid any disturbance an order was is? sued by Gene ral Glitz, closing all bar rooms. This was strictly observed, though the restriction was not needed, an the city was more quiet and order? ly than it has been st many previous elections. Tho absence of all opposition prevented any bet? ting, and tue apathy manifested by the whites left the track opon, and it was swept in a single dash. Boyond the vicinity of the polls the ordinary rou? tine of business-life waa observed, except where the irrepressible freedmen had deranged matters by absenting themselves from their employments. Along the wharves a number of negroes who were engaged in unloading vessels, became affect? ed with the b&?ot on the brain, and left for the polls, but as a general thing, the voling did not imped? business, tho newly fledged depositing their votes and returning to their ta-ks. At some of the polls a queue wa3 formed, but this was soon dispensed with as the day advanced, and at times the]poll8 were without any applicant?. No dis? order or undue excitement was seen during the day, and the voting was done decently and in or? der. At each poll several policemen were station? ed, but their sennoas were n it called into requisi? tion, and they served only to remind the crowd of th?) malesty of the law. Tho result of yesterday's voting shows that it is a one-sided affair, and if this is a white man's government they have cortainly taken no portion in the Convention farce that is about to be enacted. Tho following was the result of the voting in the city yesterday, not ona vote being "against Con? vention f FOB CONVENTION. Wards. Whites. Blacks. No. 1.2 26o No. 2.8 436 No. 8.5 j_i No. 4.2 683 Nos. 5 and 7.0 381 Nos. 6 and 8.2 258 13 2428 The total number of registered voters in this city is, vsh les 3491, and blacks 5188, so that 4340 votes, in all, must be cast to oarry the question in favor of Convention. Tax STNCD or THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN CHURCH or SOUTH CAROLD?A-FITTH AND LAST DAIS' SESSION.-The Synod met at nine o'clock A. M., at the Wentworth street Lutheran Church, the President being in the Chair. The meeting was opened with prayer by the Bev. Dr. Baohman, after whioh the minutos of tho last meeting were read and confirmed. Dr. Bachman, Cbairminof il o Committee ap? pointed to oxpress the condolence of the Synod with Mi*. John H. Honour in bis recent bereave? ment, reported that they had discharged their sad duty. Kev. Professor Smeltzer, Chairman of the Com? mittee appointed at tho last session of the Synod to make proposals to the General Synod in refer? ence to the location of a Theological Seminary, ro ported that " in accordance with instructions, the following plan had been presented to the General Synod at Staunton, Virginia. 1. Ea .-h Synod shall be represented in a Board of Directors. 2. The General Synod shall tako under its super? vision, as its own Theological Seminary, the Somi nary of the Synod of South Carolina, known former? ly as the Lexington Seminary, but mote r econ tij? as the Theological Seminary of Newbeiry, South Carolina. 3. The Synod of South Carolina shall release all claims to tho aforesaid Seminary, and bestow it gratuitously on the General Synod. 4. The General Synod shall have powor to change tho location and alter tho namo, provided tho individuality of tho Theological Seminary of | South Carolina bo perpetuated, and tho Alumni not deprived of their Alma Mtier. 5. The Synod of South Carolina will assure tho General Synod that she will support a Frofoas r in the institution, and support him from her own funds. This plan was presented to the Goneral Synod and accepted by that body. It now remains for tho Synod here to sanction tho action of the com? mittee. The following resolutions were then adopted : Resolut d, 1. That tho Synod of South Carolina sanctions and confirms tho above mentioned plan presented by the Committee to the Goneral Sy? nod, at its last Convention in Staunton, Virginia. Rex ?ved, 2. That in view of locating the Theolo? gical Seminary within the bounds of this Synod, and as a bid for the location of tho Seminary, tho Sy? nod of South Carolina offers tho North wing of Newberry College, built expressly for a Theologi? cal Seminary. An election fer members of the Board of Direc? tors of No wherry College was then held, with tho following result : Clerical Members-Bev. Dr. Bachman, Honorary President: Bevs. E. Caughman. S. Bouknight, T. S. Boniest, J. Hawkins, W. S. Bowman, and A. B. Bude. Lay Members-Captain G. S. Haoker, Captain J. H. Steinmeyer, Jr., Captain W. K. Bachman, Major G. Leapheart, J. N. Hoffman, Major H. Summers, Colonel S. Fair, Captain J. P. Auld, Major P. E. Wise, W. Langford, N. A. Hunter, and Dr. H. M. Folk. The following resolution, proposed by Bev. T. 8. Bcinest, was adopted : Whereas, the Scholarship system under which Newberry College was inaugurated, and np to this time has been carried on, has proved a failure, and rendered it impossible for the Board to meet the salaries of the Professors ; therefore be it ResJvtd, That it is the sense ot this Synod that tho Board of Directors of Newberry collego should make an appeal to tho holders of Scholarships, whether paid for in lull or or in part, to relinquish said Scholar ships voluntarily to the Board. A resolution instructing the Board of Directors of Newberry Collego to meet on tbs second Tues? day in Deoembor next was adopted. Capt. G. S. Haoker offered the following resolu? tion, whioh was adopted: Resolved, That the members and delegates of | the different charges be furnished with lists, and subscriptions be taken up in behalf of Newberry College, and tho amount collected be forwarded to the Treasurer as soon as c illection has been completed. Rev. A. B. Bude proposed tho following aa sup? plementary to the above, and it wis Resolced, That the names of all parties who bavo already pledged themselves for the relief of the College be p.aced on the subscription lists to be furnished to our membors and lay delegates. Tho Synod having now oornpleted its regular business, alter praj'er by tho Prosident, was ad? journed with tho benediotion, to meet in St. Paul's Church, Newberry District, on the Thursday be? fore the third Sundav in October, 18?8.
