Strack? en, convicted of selling liquor without a Uce?se, was u sentenced by Judge Platt on Monday to pay a fine of - six hundred dollars, or spend six hundred days in jail. This appeared extremely severe, when oom pared with the sentences formerly passed on such offences, audit wai known to but few persons that the law regulating the fine bad been changed. At the last session of the L?gislature tba City Council were authorized to regulate the price of liquor licenses, i bat the statute distinctly stated that in case of any violation the fine would be triple the amount of the license, or one day's confinement for each dollar The City Connon raised the price of a Ucease from fifty dollars to two hundred dollars, and as Str?cken was the fir? t person who has been found guilty under the last 1 "gislatlve enactment, the Une imposed was ? simply in accordance with its pro v i s ' ons. The legal necessity of the sentence cannot be questioned, but it is doubtful if the Legislature contemplated that the action of Conned would cause the penalty to he so far in excess of that imposed under former laws.

Republican Mass Meeting at the Club House? . A mass rate tin g of the Bepnblican party was held al the-Club House last night, for the purpose of curing proper nominations for Mayor and Aldermen The body of the hall was soon densely crowded with colored Republicans. Of the few whites present, large proportion were foreigners who had never fore been identified with the party. The stage waa kept clear until the callers of the meeting appeared General Scott, D. T. Corbin, F. J. Moses, R. C. De Large, Samuel Dickinson, C. P. Leslie, C. C. Bowen and others, took seats on the stage. B. C. DeLarge stated to the house that the meeting was called the purposes mentioned above, and moved that T, Corbin, Esq., be called to the chair. This propo sition met with a perfect storm of noes, and yells ''Pillsbury." DeLarge then suggested that the vote taken by rising. Only a few rose in favor of the nomi nation, the hon -, rising en moue in opposition to the same. DeLarge chen addressed the meeting, statin that this was not the time for division; they should unite and not indulge in bickerings, which would oui bring ruin upon the rarty. Tho meeting was co called 'or the purpose of putting down any one man In tho party, but in the spirit of Republicanism, unity and concert of action were desired, the meet ing should exhibit no such spirit as was evident to-night. [DeLa ge was here interrupted by loud and continuous cries of "Pillsbury," which drown the voie : of thc speaker.] DeLarge stood bis ground bravely, and though repeatedly interrupted in similar manner, concluded his remarks with ai earnest appeal to those present to be careful of then actions and not suffer themselves to be drilled into course which would injure the party. He said that the disrespect shown to one (Corbin), who had been identified with the party, almost tempted him think they were not Republicans; but he would offer as chairman Mr. F. A. Sawyer. A sudden whim seized the motley crowd, and they shouted "Sawyer" until they were hoarse, but no Sawyer ap? peared. It "was announced that Mr. Sawyer was below, but would arrive in a few moments. The meeting then calmed down, and from a bird's-eye view of the crowded audience, the following tads were apparent: First-with the exception of a.select few on and around the ataje, the house waa packed with the adherents of Pillsbury. Immediately in front of the stage were tii\cl : cquers, w jo first gave tongue, when the whole pack would take , up the Pillsbury cry. Among this chosen oand were eeve ral white men, recent adherents of the party, whoas voices were heard above the din, saying, "PUlsbn ry's me man." Mr. Sawyer having appeared, was introduced to the ' meeting and was received with en th usiastic applause In respose he expressed his thanks for the honer, i he meo ting had been called to consider the good cf the City of Charleston, and there ? ere many mern hers of the Republican party present who bad no doubt come for the same purpose. The city was now overwhelmed with debt and the people groan lng under the heavy burden of taxation, sod if there was a time when th J affairs of the city required wise and j udtcious counsels it was now. This power should not be put in the hands of any one who could not use it wisely. It was not his desire to os? tracise any man, bnt to consult with them aa to tho a a beat fitted for the positions of Major and Aldermen of the City of Charleston. The Republican party are governed by certain medea, which, indeed, ara common to all parties, regulating nominations, scd if these were adhered to he pledged himself to stand by that nomination. (Cheers.) He claimed, how ever, th *t this norn tm lion must be made by a ma? jority and not by a fiction or clique. He concluded by saying that he hoped the meeting, os good Re? publicans, would receive any motions or listen to any addresses that should be made. On motion Thomas Holmes and A. J Banaler were appointed secretaries and took their seats. Mr. Sawyer said that hearing no morlona, he would suggest that some gentleman present who eigneo the coll for the meeting be requested to speak. (Calls for Moses and Tom'inson, also cries of Kol No. Mr. F. J. Moses said that ho had not intended to speak and would not detain them. He referred to tho disgraceful conduct of the m -etiug, whon Major Corbin's name was proposed as chairman. The meet iag was evidently packed with the adherents of Pills bury, whu forgot the respect die to a distinguished r-ombor of the party, and hj decline! addressing them. Mr. Mose', Major Corbin and some others then left the hall. After several calls, which were unanswered, Jenks re. fponded", and began his speMi. Ho denlid that the meering was pa:ked, an 1 was glad to seo a tull meeting. The State ticket had boen success' fal, and to that triumph was now to bc added anoth' er. Mr. Jenks then diso us sed slavery audits his' tory, from Alaska to Florida, growing hot and cold as his fancy wandered from pole top?le. Af.erclr cumambulatlon, he touched upon the city elections, and spoke of the Republic m parry as being the ear of progress. He said he hod hoped to have cheered the meeting with the tidiaga that Andrew Johnaon was no longer President. [Loud cheers.] But he hoped in a few days to go to Chicago to nominate a new President, who had flanked the Wnite House and had the support'of the party. In conclusion he stated that, as the ex pon. nt and particular friend Of Pilisbu' y,he would say that ho Pilsbury) seemed to be the chosen candidate for Mayor [ cheers], and ha was authorized to state that if Pilsbury was chosen he was willing to serve, but left it to the meeting to put him in the position. The chairman introduced General Scott and Chap? lain French, who both addressed the meeting. Ihey were followed by J. M. Morrison. A resolution was then adopted providing for the election at the ward meetings, ordered to be held to? night, of nine delegates from < ach ward, which dele? gates shall, ls convention of the whole, nominate Mayor and Aldermen of the city, the said nominees to be considered tho regular nominees of the party. The roaolution also stated that the m muer of Mr. Pillsbury's nomination was contrai y to the rules of the party, and had made this further action necessa? ry. The meeting tt en adjourned. THE COMPT.TMTllTTABY BENEFIT.- Th? Bar bor of Seville" waa performed laat evening to a per? fectly jammed house. Every available nook and cor ner.of the hall was occupied, and persons were stand? ing in the lobbies and windows. Mgnor Orlandin? was perfect in figaro, and Signor Susini admirable in Don Birtolo, while Count Almaviva and Rosina fulfilled the most enthusiastic expectations. Miss Mcculloch was particularly successful in the sing? ing lesson scene, and her rendering of the "Caro Nome" wai encored with great applause and show? ers of bouquets. Altogether, this complimentary benefit to our fair countrywoman may bc considered a completo success. One of the most gratifying incident) of the evening was the floral decoration of the hall, every garland of which was wrought by the f*ir fingers of tho-e who had been the schoolmates and friends oi tte ac. compliahed prima dom.a.
