ARRIVAL OF IMMIGRANTS AT SAVANNAH.
The steamship Zodiac, which arrived at Savan?
nah, "on Sunday, from Now York, bronght out
a number of German emigrants, who design
prospecting the situation, and are thc pioneers
of others who will follow if their report be fa?
vorable. They were brought ont under the
direction of Mr. Louis Gardner, a gentleman
who has made the subject of emigration a
business. Thoy design working for wages for
one year with a view of being enabled to as?
certain the value of educated farming labor.
They are intelligent, happy looking, have
money enough to boy lands, and express them?
selves pleased with what they have seen of
their selected home.
STAMPS ONCE MORE.-Tho operation of the
Stamp act in this community is onerous in the
extreme, and unjust to the tradesman. First,
he is required to take out and pay for a license,
and then he is hampered with the complex
machinery of "Schedulo C," of the Stamp act.
After having, at great expense of time and la?
bor, mastered tho mysteries of this law, he
goes to the Internal Revenue office, and asking
for stamps, is told there are none there. This
is of constant occurrence. The writer of this
paragraph, on Monday, wont to Mr. Sawyer's
office t o procure one hundred one cent propri?
etary stamps. "Wo have none," was the care?
less answer. Yet, perhaps, in the very next
hour, a detective wiU furrot out a sardine box,
or a package of infant powder, without a
stamp. The case ia reported to tho District
Attorney, presented to the grand jury, and,
if they refuse to find a true bill,
Mr. Attorney threatens to put on tho inquisi?
torial thumbscrews of challenges and test
oaths. If the jury be compliant, and find a bill,
the unfortunate victim of the Stamp act is
compelled to undergo the vexation, the trouble, j
loss of time, anxiety and expense of a trial,
which, even if the petit jury shall not find him !
guilty, are, nevertheless, very considerable.
But he has no security whatever that he shell
so escape. The detective swears he found the
jax of pickles, without a stamp, in Mr. Epicier's
store. The corpus delicti is brought inio court.
Is not this conclusive? What rebutting testi?
mony can bo adduced to clear tho accused?
He may be fined and mulcted in costs, and all,
not because he desired to evade tho law, but
because Mr. Frederick A. Sawyer, CoUector of
Internal Revenue, is not provided with stamps.
A HOUSE AND LOT FOR ONE HUNDRED AND
ELEVEN DOLLARS.-The time was when real
estate was considered the most desirable
species of property, because the most secure,
and least liable to fluctuations in market value.
The income from this species of property was i
usually less than from many other kinds of in?
vestments, but the holders accepted this lower
rate of interest willingly, in consideration of
the greater security of the investment. This
is tho case in a normal stale of society, sup?
plied with tho normal amount of the circul?t- ?
mg medium. It is tho case, however, noloDger
in our city and State. Real estate now brings
a mere song. Whether this is owing to the
scarcity of money, or a vague feeling of in?
security, inseparable from our present state of
political transition, or to both these causes
combined, we will not stop to consider. Real
estate now represents no fixed value. If offer?
ed at public vendue, it may bring twenty-five
per cent, of its former value, or perhaps not
even ten por cent. Yet the assessment in the
tax book has not been reduced. And we now
hear of anomalous cases where the taxes and
insurance amount to as much, and sometimes
more, than thc purchase price of thc property.
No ono will say that this is a h'jalthy state of
things. Salos, of course, on such conditions,
only take place at the bidding of the officers of
the law. The debtor is sacrificed while tho
creditor receives little or no benefit. Some
third party comes in and reaps the spoils aris?
ing from thia unfortunate and abnormal condi?
tion of affairs. Wc want relief from some
quarter. It cannot be to tho interest of the
community to have piopcrty sacrificed in this
manner, and pass in!o :1t%i hands of a few mer?
ciless Shy locks. We will give a case in point.
Yesterday the Master in Equity sold a houso
and lot in Mount Pleasant for $300. The lot
mensures ninety-one by ono hundred and ser
enty-four feet ; the house now, cost abo rt
$3000 to build, and is insured for $2000. Tl ie
terms of the sale were one-third cash, tho bul
anco in one and two years. The purchaser
paid Sill, entered on the possession of bis
property, and at once rented it for $250 a
year.
The advertisement of this property was head?
ed "Under Decree in Equity-Brown cs. Mil?
ler." Now, we know nothing whatever of this
case, but find it difficult to behove that ei*her
Brown or Moller, their heirs, assignees, or by
whatsoever name their repr?sentatives may be
known, were benefitted by this sale of the Mas?
ter in Equity. There should be a remedy for
this evil somewhere, and we hope it will bo ap?
plied.

COUBT OF GENERAL SESSIONS AND COMMON
PLEAS-HON. F. J. MOSES PBESID?NG.- Tho
?ase first taken up was the State vs. George
Duffie (colored), charged with the murder of
.\ndrew Grooms, near Summerville, on the 1st
sf January. Messrs. H. W. Schroeder, Robert
'J hi s elm and J. F. Fioken appeared for the de
ence.
Dr. Robert Ahern testified: That he was a
practicing physician, residing at Summerville
On the 2a ot January he was called to examine
the body of Andrew Grooms, at the house of
Moses Driggers, about two miles from the vii'
l?ge. There were two wounds on tho head
which had shattered and depressed tho bono,
causing the brain to be penetrated. The
wounds were evidently the canse of his death
and were inflicted by some sharp instrument.
The prisoner gave the information of the min*'
der at the office of the Freedmen's Bureau,
and said that it was done in self-defence.
Moses Driggers' house is about twenty-five
yards from the road, and is surrounded with
pine saplings not thick enongh to prevent a
man from running, though on a dark night
ho did not think any one could see aa arm's
length.
Caroline Driggers testified : That she lived
two and a half miles the otherside of Summer?
ville; Grooms had lived there but had sold out
and moved to Mount Holly. On thc< first of
January Moses Driggers and Grooms came
from Summerville in a wagon, and caine into
the house. Grooms said we are drunk again,
and caught witness, throwing hei down
Grooms then threw her husband on the floor
and choked him. Witness then hallooed for
George Duffie; the prisoner, Duffie, liv Dd in an
adjoining house. When Duffie arrived Grooms
had choked Mosos Driggers until he was black
in ihe face. Dnfllo said, Grooms don't kill
Moses, but the former replied, with an oath,
I'll kill you both. Grooms then left Moses,
and drawing bis knife ran at Duffio, hut soon
returned and continued his assault with
threats that he would kill both. The right
continued for som o time on the road, th o parties
having left the house. The witness was
pushed out of tho way, and did not seo tho
blow struck, as she was three hundred yards
from tho fight. Hor husband called to her that
Grooms had been killed, and she cane to the
house, got a tub of water and bathed Grooms'
wound, and put some cobwebs on tho wound.
Grooms lived about two hours. Duffie said Pve
killed Grooms, but I could not help it. Duffie
then went for a doctor hut could get none, and
went with witness and delivered himself to the
Colonel of the Freedmen's Bureau.
Moses Driggers corroborated the testimony
of his wife.
George D?the, the prisoner, was introduced
by the defence, and in many respects corrobo?
rated the testimony of Mrs. Driggers. Ho
said that when Grooms left Driggers and ran
at witness, Grooms caught him and jerked him
about; witness was completely in fis power,
and could not get away. Witness told Grooms
to go away and stop fighting Driggers.
Grooms then struck at witness twico with his
knife and witness struck bim twice ii. the head
with a black gum stick, about three feet long
and somewhat knotty. Witness did not think
he had killed Grooms, and only struck the
blows in self-defence.
Dr. Ahern, on being re-examined by the
State, said that no stick of the description
given by the prisoner was found, 'xhe jury of
inquest found a small hatchet in the prisoner's
house, which had a new handle, but there was
no proof that it had been used for the purpose
of killing Grooms.
The testimony being closed, the argument
was opened by Robert Chisolm, Esq., for the
defence. This waa Mr. Chisohr's maiden
speech, and was a clear and logical offort. Mr.
J. F. Ficken followed, Mr. Schroeder closing.
The Attorney-General replied for the State,
and after a charge from the Judge "he jury re?
turned a verdict of-Guilty of maislaughfcer,
with a recommendation to the clemency of the
Court.

Reports on tho Artesian Well and the

neeting.
Alderman Parker gave notice of a bill which
vould alter the ordinance of 1857 relative to
Illing up sunken lots with certain materials.
Alderman Marshall preson'.ed a protest from
landry merchants relativo to the enforcement
>f the Tax bill. The report was a protest on
he clause in the bill referring to sales, and was
ia follows:
To the City Council of Charleston :
The undersigned, citizens, wholesale and
.etail merchants and traders, dealing in mer
?handise subject to that clause of the tax ordi?
nance imposing a tax upon sales, respectfully
mt earnestly protest against the enactment
ind enforcement of said clause, and against
he system of taxation it seeks to continue and
jstablish, and among the reasons for protoet,
hey submit as follows :
First. Because said tax ia a tax not upon
iroperty or upon the successful results of in
lustry, but upon industry itself without
.espect to results, whothor disastrous or suc
:essful.
Second. Because the scheme of such taxa
;ion being in itself unwiso and unjust, is made
noro so by unfair discrimiuatiou in placing its
jordon on tho industry of some classes of
?itizens, and osompting others. And tho prac
ice of injustice in this case as in all other casos
viii bring its natural and inevitable results,
18B of prosperity and credit, followed ty re?
motion of rents and of the value of real
?state, with a proportionate increaso of the
jurden of tho present necessary aggregate of
axation.
Third. Because the feeling of discontent
which its manifest injustice wall and does pro
luce, intensified by the gloomy hope of the
"uture and disastrous present condition of
jublic and private affaira, will of itaelf produce
hore material evil to the city than many times
;ho amount of taxes on sales would compen
?te for.
Fourth. Because distinguished juriste hav
ng long ago expressed opinions against the
awful power of tho City Council to levy this
.ax, the attempt to collect it at this time ia
ikely to produce lon? and extensive litigation,
vhich, whether it defeats it or not, wi? be
spreading more generally the knowledge of its
njuatice; surely in the end force its abandon?
nent, after its evils are incurable.
Finally. Because against every theory of
ust taxation tbis tax disregards the ability of
;he tax-payer to pay. It is not rated upon his
jroperty, nor upon his income, nor even upon
;he fair proportionate protection ho may re
:oive from the municipal government.
For these sufficient reasons, the undersigned
nope and pray that said ordinance, or so much
jf it as ia herein referred to, may not be rati?
fied:

ment being completed, the Council adjourned.
THE CITY COUNCIL AND THE MEDICAL SOME?
T?.-By tho proceedings of the City Council
yesterday, an abstract of which is published in
this morning's NEWS, it will be seen that the
Medical Society of South Carolina, addressed a
memorial to the Council, reviewing and ani?
madverting upon the policy of the present ad?
ministration of the city government, in so far
as relates to their action in matters pertaining
to the Health Department of the city. Memo?
rials have previously been addressed to the
City Council on the same subject by the
Trastees of Roper Hospital and the Faculty of
the Medical College. The memorial presented
lost night is too long for this morning's issue,
but will bo published in a few days. If we have
been rightly informed, it arraigns the action of
th? Board of Health and of the chief medical
officer of the city. The Mayor made an extem
poro defence of his course and of the Board of
Health. A motion was made to refer the me?
morial to a special committee, of which no Al?
derman shall be a member who is a member of
the Board of Health. This was opposed by
the Mayor SB altogether improper; he contend?
ed that the Board of Health only could take
cognizance of the case ; and, on his motion, the
subject was finally referred to that body. Here,
then, we have the anomaly of a Board arraigned
before itself, and sitting in judgment on its
own act.
FrBE AT MOUNT PLEASANT.-A fire occurred |
early yesterday morning at Mount Pleasant,
destroying Mr. Wm. Hale's steam gin house
and grist mill, at the foot of the Ferry Wharf;
the fiie supposed to have boen the work of an
incendiary, and a colored boy by name Tom,
formerly employed about the mill, has been ar?
rested on suspicion. It seems that two young
men smelling firs went into the mill, but saw ;
nothing and came out, not being satisfied, how?
ever, they went in again, and saw fire and this
boy then jumped out of the window. The mill
was entirely consumed. Tho estimated loss,
about $4000, which is supposed to be covered
by insurance. A quantity of cotton in the gin
house, to bo ginned on toll, was also consumed.
PUPLIO OBDEB IN THE CABOLTNAS_A com?
munication from Colonel Willard, of General
Can by's staff, and in ohargo of the Bureau of
Civil Affairs in the Second Military District,
has been received in New York by private
parties. It says in effect that crime in North
Carolina and South Carolina is no greater than
the courts are able to attend to, and that hfe
and property are as secure as in the Northern
States, and that there are no indications of
truth in the reports that a war of races is ap?
proaching in these States.
A WATEB FALL.-While the passengers for
tho steamer Dictator were going aboard, las I
night, an elderly gentleman made a mia tcp aDd
fell overboard. Fortunately the water was not
very deep at that point, and a youth named
Rodgers, who saw the mishap, succeeded in ex?
tricating tho gentleman from his une o m fort
able position. Notwithstanding his involun?
tary bath, the sufferer deoided to proceed on
his journey, and his beaver being fished from
the briny deep, he went on his way rejoicing.

Tupper, the following lands:

Two NEGRO CHILDREN BURNT TO DEATH-On
Sunday evening last' two negro children were
burnt to death undor tho following circum?
stances : In the afternoon of Sunday two ne?
gro women loft their children in a house where
a fire was burning, and went visiting in the
country. Whilo they were absent, tho largest,
a boy about five years old, attempted to rekin?
dle the fire, which was about going out, the
smaller child holding on to him at the samo
time, when by some means or other they both
caught fire, causing almost instant death to
tho smaller ono. The larger boy survived un?
til Tuesday morning. It is alleged that this
horrible affair occurred through the careless?
ness of the mothers.-Bennetlsoi?e Journal.
