asking Council to have the building kno w

called for and the work done under the EU;
vision of the City Engineer, and to be don?

house expires.
The Chairman of the Committee of W
and Means, presented the following report
the finances of the city :
After long and careful consideration, beg
submit to Council the accompanying bili,
raise supplies for the year 1868.
lu the estimates of the probable wants
the eeveral departments of the city gove
ment, the figures have been put at the low
point, but still a large amount is found rec
site.
The estimate of the probable receipt? fr
all sources, will fall short of the amount r cot
by about the amount of the ai. nu al in tere si
the city debt. It is true that there is an arr
of taxes due, from the years 1866 and 1367
over $100,000; but against that there are olai
against the city remaining unpaid of an eqt
if not larger, amount, so that no relief can
looked for from that quarter, even if the wh
amount in arreara should be paid.
lu making this plain and candid statt me
the committee are aware that censure trill
visited upon them, but they believe tha: af
a fair ana impartial consideration by attend?
circumstances, and the difficulties encountei
by then, they will be acquitted of o?ame. C
cu'ti stances beyond our control, and whioh it
useless to discuss, have produced a cond tioc
things heretofore unknown. Nor aro we si agu
in this respect. The failure of the soil, wuetl
from seasons or otherwise, to yield its acm
toined products, has cut off trade almost e
tir ely, and our people at the end of eat h ye
find themselves poorer than at its beginnii
With an impoverished people and such gene)
stagnation of trade, what else than great a
insuperable difficulties are to be exoecte d bj
corporation whose only mode of raising mea
is levying and collecting taxes.
Our misfortune is that we found the city e
cumbered with a large funded debt, for the e
isteuce of which the present authorities a
surely not responsible. In the case of indi1
duals* under the pressure of debt, we see i
most daily how their energies are ci amp
thereby, and how utterly impossible it is f
them, with all their struggles, to succee L Th
is equally applicable to corporations, but in tl
former case provision is made by the laws
the c J un try to afford relief, which is al togo t
er impracticable in the case of a muniripalit
The taxes imposed the past two years hai
proved a heavy burden on the community, y
the committee cannot recommend a reciuctio
To levy a tax which would raise the full arnon
needed would require an advance of over fif
per cent, upon the rate of taxation in the b:
of 1867. Even if this were done it is q iestio
able whether any larger amount would be r
alized than under the rates the comriittee
prepared to propose, and the result vould 1
to subject a very large amount of property I
Bale under the ahentTj hammer, for which t
purchase ra will be found, our own people beii
too much impoverished to purchase, and th
unsettled condition of affairs tending to pr
vent lather than to invite in vee tm ea ts hoi
from other sections of the country.
lu preparing the Tax bill of 1866 ;he est
mates were necessarily vague, the condition c
things for several years preceding procludin
the possibility of obtaining; a correct basis up
ou,which to found them, and the amoimt real
ized under that bill did not suffice to iaeet th
demands. Those of 1867 could be more ac cu
rat ely estimated, having the expense i of 186
us a basis of calculation, and it will be remem
bured that when the bill came up for itu secom
reading it was accompanied by a repart fron
the committee showing a probable doflcieno
of over $200,000.
Owing to the great depression in trade, no
only the receipts from taxes, as sales will b
greatly reduced, but the inability to meet taxe
generally, will be much increased, and the de
Uciency at the end of the year may prc ve evei
greater than shown by the estimates.
While the committee regret their inability t<
provide for the quarterly interest as it .'alls due
the/ can see no other course to pursue, trust int
to the forbearance of the holders of stacks ant
bonds, with the assurance to them that, st
long as the present authorities exist, nome pro
vision will bc made to liquidate tnt inter?s
accruing thereon.
Tho following estimates of wants .ind sup
plies, together with th< bill to raise snppliei
for the year 1868, are respectfully submitted.*

continued or nol pros.
It will be noticed that the juries in this court
are all composed of white citizens, notwith?
standing that three drawings were made, each

This fact only proves what has long been stat?
ed; tho negro tax-payers aro in the minority;

UNITED STATES DIBTBICT COUBT.-HON. GEO.
8. BRYAN PRESIDING.-The Court met at ll A.
M., and the juries answered to their names.
In re John Thompson, of Spartanburg-Pe?
tition for voluntary bankruptcy. On motion of
Messrs. Farrow & Duncan, the Judge signed
an order of reference to W. J. Clawaon, Regis?
trar Fourth Congressional District.
In re Laban C. Chappell, of Fairfield Dis?
trict-Petition for voluntary bankruptcy. On
motion of James H. Rion, the Judgo signed an
order of reference to W. J. Clawson, Registrar
of the Fourth Congressional District.
The case of the United States vs. John
Archer, for violation of the internal revenue,
was then taken up, Asher D. Cobon, Esq., ap?
pearing for tho defence. This case was similar
to that tried previously. The two informers,
Hubbard and Green, testified that they had
bought a jar of pomade from Mr. Archer, and
that it was unstamped. The defence alleged
that the stamp was affixed, or had dropped off
in handling, as the smooth surface of the
china jar provonted its adhering. Mr. Cohen
objected to the testimony of the infor?
mers as incompetent witnesses, they being
interested in the result. Mr. James Simons,
Jr., having been ret-' for similar
eases, stated that he wouiu urge the
same objection, and requested permission to
state bis reasons for thia objeciion. The
Judge assenting, tho quos ti on was argued by
both of the counsel, and tho points introduced
wero so clear that the Judge overruled his pre?
vious decision and decided that the informers
could not toBtit'y, and if thoy did appear as wit?
nesses they would forfeit theil- share of the
penalty. The case was then continued, and,
after able arguments by the opposing counsel,
the Judge charged the jury. Ho thanked the
counsel for the defence for the clear manner in
which they had represented thc law on tho
subject of informers, but added that although
he had reversed his former decision, he con?
sidered tho law eminently wholesome. Reve
nuo laws were essential to the support of the
government, and if the people wished to main?
tain the honor and good faith of that govern?
ment the provisions of tho law should be ob?
served. It was the duty of tho jury to decide
between right and wrong, as the laws of South
Carolina now permitted each party to testily.
He cloBed by showing how the law was to bo
construed and the reasons that had caused this
improvement on the former code.
After a short absence the jury returned with
a verdict of not guilty.
Tho case of tho United States vs. John
Hurkamp was then called, but was continued
until to-day at ll A. M. Adjourned.
STABBING; AFFBAY.-About half-past 6 O'clock
yesterday evening two colored men entered a
house of ill repute on Elliott-Btreot, and be?
coming noisy, wore put out by Lewis Smith
and Hiram Oliver, also colored. In tho melee
which ensued a razor was drawn, and Smith
and ono of the rioters, named Preston Thomas,
were badly cut, Smith on tho face and Preston
in the wriat. Oliver, who tried to restrain
thom, was knocked down by a brickbat and
stunned. The parties who created the dis?
turbance left tho house, but were pursued, and,
with the aid of the police, brought to the
guardhouse. Thomas and Smith wero sent to
the hospital. Thc police were ordeiod to
Elliott-street, and on their way thither a white
man was found in tho burnt district badly cut
in the abdomen. Ho was quite intoxicated,
and could give no account of himself. From
papers in his pocket, it appeared his name was
Richard B. Low, from Vermont, and it is
probable that ho was engaged in the dis
j turbance. His wounds were dressed by Dr.
Frost, and he was taken to the City Hospital.
Elliott-street has always borne a bad charac?
ter, but the house in question is noted for
ro .vs, and the inmates and habitues are accus?
tomed to use their weapons on the slightest
provocation.

RODUJSBA ISLAND GUANO.
A Pure, Unmixed. Natural Guano, as
Fine as Flour (although not Ground),
just In the Condition In which It ia
Imported from tile Island.
rrrais GUANO IS FROM A RECENTLY DIS
X COVERED deposit on. Eoctaoda Island, in tba
Carritean Sea, West Indies, UUltude 16 dogreea 06
minutes north, longitude 62 degrees 23 minutas
west
It has been used for many years in the West India
Islands in the cultivation of Sugar Cane and cereals
with great success; wan introduced for the first time
to the farmers and planters of the United States m
tbe spring of 1866, and baa met wi. h unprecedented
success, as the subjoin! d reports and testimon?ala fol?
ly corroborate.
Tho RODUNDA GU INO is not a mineral phos?
phate, rcqulmg the action of the Sulphuric Acid to
render lt soluble; Its great power as a fertilizer is in
ita entire solubility, w.thout tho aid of seid. It ia
not a "manipulauon" or Compound of ?. ish or Flesh
with Mineral Phosphates, the regularity of which is
always uncertain and dependent upon, and controll?
ed by the honesty ol the manufacturer. The RO?
DUNDA is a PUKE NATURAL GUANO (that term
being understood tontean tho excrement of fish-eat?
ing birds), as the larg? per centage of organic mat?
ter sufficiently attests, andas found upon the Island
of Rodunda, in the very state as imported and sold
to cont umers.
The regularity and i. ni fot-mi ty of the fineness and
condition of the various cargoes already Imported by
na into tile United States, tested by the analysis o?
the moBt eminent Che insta of this country and Eu?
rope, ls sufficient proof of its origin and a guarantee
of our ability to lundi h this Guano of the quality
and purity represente!.
The PRICE of the iiODUNDA GUANO is not the
least unimportant in i hese days of agricultural com?
petition and pecuniary embarrassment
The very low price ut which lt can be sold places it
within the reach of ev ery farmer, and avoids the risk
of large loss frequently incurred by failures of the
crops in thc purchase of high priced fertilizers.
In the preparation of lands for Wheat and other
cereals this Guano possesses properties that reader
lt more desirable for ?hose crops than any yet offered
to the public.
Pamphlets containing the analysis and experi?
ments made by the most prominent Chemists of thia
country and In Euroie. together with innumerable
certificates of its entire success from farmers and
planters, can be ob tal ned at our Office, to which we
