Honour, Mar? shal, Whilden, Cosgrove. Butler, Parker, Pringle, Gerdts and Enston. When the Council was called to order. Alderman Bavenel rose and said that he considered that under General Caaby'n order the gentlemen removed were no longer aldermen, and had no right to act as such. The ai'.yor, in reply. 63id tbat the present Board remained in office until their successors had taken the oath and qualified Alderman Bavenel said he was only anxious to aroid the violation of any rule on the subject The Mayor repeated tbat all the aldermen were en? titled to act until their successors had qualified, and that there was no doubt whatever as to their right to do so. Alderman Bavenel asked why the report from his Committee, presented by Alderman Marshall at the last meeting, In relation to securities held by the city, had not been printed in the proceedings. The Mayor said that tho publication had been postponed to the next regular meeting of Council. Alderman Pringle reported that the St Michael's clock had been taken down, and would be repaired as quickly as possible. The following ordinance was then read a third time and ordered to be engrossed : A BILL TO AMEND THE F1BST SECTION OPAH ORDI? NANCE TO REGULATE THE SALARIES OF CTTT OFFI CEBS, AND FOB OTHES FUBF08X8, RA TITTED 3D DECEMBER, 1888 Be it ordained. That from and after the first day of May instant the annual appropriation for teachers of the Orphan House be increased five hundred dollars per annum. A discussion arose as to the repairs required to be done to tho Orphan House, and, on motion of Alder? man Steinmeyer, $300C were appropriated for the purpose, the same to-be expended under the direc? tion or the Commissioners, In the coane af the debate, it was objected by Al? dermen >Tar?h*n and Olney that the resolution was rotin order and contrary to rule; but, upon explan? ation that it was founded on a report of the Commit? tee of Public Buildings, signed by a majority of that committee, the resolution of appropriation waa adopted. The fellowing ordinance was ratified: An ordinance for the better regalation of the street department denning the duties of the inspectors of streets, and for other purposes. The Mayor announced the result of the election of | President of the Memphis and Charleston Railroad already published. The Mayor read the following communication,! from General Canny: _ HEADQUARTERS SECOND MmrrABT DISTRICT, ) . -CHABU8Xovr8.a, May 98th. 1868. J Colonel CognoeO, XT. S.A., Mayor af. Charlatan, S. C.: Sra: The rh"?g- ta-tti ft**-* of Aldermen of the City of Charls3ton, announced m the accompany? ing special order, were made without communication with you, because I cousidered.it proper that, la Car present position, you should cot bc regarded aa ving advised either the removals or the appoint? ments. For the same reasons lt would be stated tbat the persons who have been i appointed were not advised of their appointment, and that the change was determined upon by consid?rations of a public nature Involving the Interests of the city and the State. Very respectfully, ~-~ -Ton obedient servant. ED. B. 8. CANBY, Bvt. Mkjor-Goneral Commanding. The Mayor said, that it-was due to himself that he ahox?d now say a word tc Council, although no one might be more unfitted than himself for such a pur? pose. Bis' intercourse with the Council bad been of tho meat friendly chariot r, and he was under a thousand obligations for the kind considera' tiona and consistent support that bad been extended to hun, while Council and he had served together. Their action bad been fin- the moat part harmonious, and there had been ss serious disagreement. Ee bad never, he mighttruly say, been thrown la contact with a body of gentlemen whom ho esteemed more .highly. It was sot necessary to say that the changes in Cous di had bees made'without consultation with him, and be was as much surprised as any one. He had endeavored to do nia duty towards the city, and bad to the beet of hi? ablh ty administered her affairs with a conscientious regard to the Interesta of ber people. Whether he had succeeded lt was not for him to say. He again thanked Connon for their Und support, and in conclusion, said he waa no poll ti etas, aspired to no office, but had dose his best for thc interests of all concerned. Alderman Parker thea rose to makes personal ex plasatlon. He said that he bad tees it reported in cse of the etty papers (the Courier) that be had, at a meeting held os T?esds?ngbt, moved a vote of thanks to General Canty JOT the changes made tn Council. This would hare been equivalent to an approval of th,e turning out of gentlemen who sate with him in Council, and, although ho waa ose of the aldermen who were retained, he Eh oui d have considered such conduct very improper, and desired, therefore, to say thaine did not offer the saldresolu ttou. - ' Alderman nfraabal). on behalf of.the Council, -re turned thanks to tho Mayor mr tho justice and impar? tiality with which he had acted aa Maj or of Charles? ton. He referred to the condition of tho city two and-a half years ago, when the present Council had taken office-spoke of the difficulties they had had to encounter, and said that when the exhibit should be mads of their admiois (ration of affairs, such a result would be sh own as would gam for (se Council credit tutead of curses. He said that Council bad serer violated any military order,, and bad never done an y thlEAj to which exception could be taken. Io con? clusion, he again thanked th s Mayor for the Justice sad Impartiality of hil conduct. . Council then adjourned. THE YOUNO MIX'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION FAIR.-Hib er ulan Hall was again filled last evening withs goodly proportion of the representative love? liness or Charleston. The tables grow prettier every sight ' This evening, among the new attractions offered, will be several tableaux, wa'ch save bees prepared with especial cars and taste. EFFECT OF THE MUNICIPAL CHANGES ON Cm STOCK.-The stir lh municipal affairs has but slight? ly affected the price of city stock. The markst yes? terday was duli, and there were some small sale; at a decline of one per cent lt was believed, however, by well informed brokers, that bad any Urge amounts bees throws upon the market the depres aion would, hire reached about two and a half per cent THK BUSXT DIS rai CT has been' wonderfully improved sinceThe picket fences have been erected along the sidewalks. Nor is it by the handiwork cf man alose that this desolate eecUon baa'been bright? ened. Dame Nature baa been busily at work, and baa effectually concealed all inequalities wi th a car-1 pet of verdure, deuars have bees' siled with the luxuriant vegetation,'and in every portion of what j wu lately the Sahara cf bur city may be seen the commingling of the green leaves and the white blossoms. THE SHEBXFFALTT.-In another p? rt of to? days paper Sheriff Hastie announces that he will be a candidate for the Shexiffalty ai the approaching election. The position is one of important responsi? bility, and it ls much to be desired that it should be siled by a man of experience, who la known and trusted in the community. Mr. Hattie accepted the place at the hands af the military authorities, at a very critical juncture, and it must bo admitted that he has uniformly discharged ita duties with justice, moderation, and considerate regard for the welfare pf hts fallow-citizens. NOTICES nt BANKRUPTCY.-Meetings of the creditors of the undermentioned bankrupts, to prove debts and choose assignees, will be held at the office of the Regis trar. Hon. B. B.

GENERAL WILLIAM E. MABTTN AND HOS. J. B. CAMPBELL. An adjourned Democratic meeting was held lost evening, at Hibernian Hall, for the purpose of re? ceiving Ihe report or tlio Committee or Fifteen, nom? inating delegates to attend a Democratic State Con* vea ti on to be held in Columbia. About three hun? dred persons were present. Tue meela g being called to order, Colonel C. H. Simonton, tho chair* man, announced its object, and stated that Mr. lt. B. Bhett, Jr., would read THe REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE, Which that gentleman did. as follows: The Committee of Fifteen appointed to nominate delegates equal to twice the number ot the Charles? ton delegation in the last General Assembly, to re? present us in Columbia on the second Monday in June next, respectfully report the following names : C H Simonton, Henry Sparnick, William Lobby, John Hanckel, J Barrett Cohen, A Melchers, E Lafitte, Z Davis, W E M?kell, B M Welch, W E How? land, W G Whilden, J B Campbell, Bobert S Bruns, Jacob Small, M H Nathan, B B Bhett, Jr., T D Eason, c B Miles, J B Steele, J B Pringle, A P Cald? well, H Gerdts, E W Marshall, F W Dawson, George | H Hoppock, E P Locke, A Cameron, F J Pelzer, B F Hager, J R Bead, AT Smyth, D Lopez, F Rich? ards, Joseph Hilton, E M Whiting, N M Porter, E Platt, H H DeLeon, C C Trombo. On motion of Mr. Alley, the s av ral names were voted upon separately, -and the question being taken all of the persons named were elected. Mr. John Hanckel, in. the absence of Mr. F. W. Dawson, stated that ho had been requested by that gentleman to say that owing to the pressure of busi? ness engagements it would be impracticable for him to be m Columbia during the session of the Convention, and that he would therefore beg to with? draw his name. Mr. S. T. Tupper was nominated to fill the vacan? cy, but that gentleman said he had been approached by the committee on the previous evening and bad declined to serve. Captain James Mulvaney was then nominated, but he, likewise, declined to serve. CoL John E. Carew was then nominated and duly elected. There being no other business before the meeting, a can was made upon Gen. Wm. E. Martin for a speech, and he addressed the meeting ti follows: SPEECH OF GEN. WM. E. MABTTN. FeUovhCitueru: If there. be one thought para? mount to all others which, speaking for myself on the present occasion, I would utter, lt ia that aa for me. and my home we have determined to go heart and soul into the Democratic party of the United Sta*es. ( Applause.) There waaa time when we were m the habit .of speaking of that party with bated breath. I, myself, once had the honor of being a delegate to a convention in Baltimore, at a time when we were trammelled by terms, conditions and provisoes without number. But, Mr. Chairman, the days of conditions, of provisoes, and of qualifica? tions GS to the manner m which we should affiliate with/the. Democra?c^iarty, have, I trust, forever passed away... These are not the times, gentlemen, lor much Bpcaking, and I confess to you that to rile before a Charleston audience ofter a silence of eight years, lu this hall, so much Identified and associated with the events of 1660, mutt excite profound emo? tion m the hearts of all ot us who were actors in those scenes. .Interesting as the* e memories are, they are thing i of tba past, which are not to be dwelt upon now with the enthusiasm of those days. I shall, therefore, allude to these ?venta no farther than ls necessary to illustrate one or two points which I propose to pr?sent to y oar cons' d eration. - Has: lt ever occurred to yon; fellow-citizens, that the wildest dream of the fanatical emancipationist could not,have anticipated such a condition of affairs aa exists in the South at the pre s mt time. I am old enough to remember when we were told that if the Abolitionists, or the reformers so-called, could bring about the abolition of slavery, it was ah they hoped for or e truggl ed to effect. There wai ono wise man of that time, however, the immortal Calhoun [great cheering], who declared these people would never be satisfied until they brought the Caucasian race to subjection to the ne? gro. How. sadly has his prophecy been fumBedl This condition has been produced by foros of arms, but I am not one of those who believe that the bay? onet can make wrong right or truth a falsehood. The Governor of Georgia may announce, in the plenitude of his political somer saul ta, while stand? ing among hie Radical allies oa the floor of the Ohl cago Convention, that the force of arms has blotted out States rights, but I, for one, shan never belong to thia Joe-Brown a ch ooh Contrast the condition of the country at the close of the war with ita condition at \ the present time. Ton, MT. Chairman, and other gallant Confederate officers, laid down your arms in good faith, bat, in the langnage of Governor Andrew, of Masaachmaetts, In sneaking of General Lee, yon surrendered to a white man and not to a negro. {Applause.) The e nd of the war found ns a broken, distressed, subjugat? ed, raine J, humiliated, abject people, with all tost save honor. Thank God that we preserved that I I wiQ not pretend to say that we who had been Sating against the Union, were at the close tte war suddenly Inspired with a love for the Union; but I do maintain, in the face of the whole narrarse, that the people of the South, in layiog down their arms, were earnest and honest in accepting the terms of surrender. They c;ased to fight because they could fight no longer. It was not pretended then, nor la It now", that we were loyal in the sense that EagMafr people are loyal to their Queen and government-a loyalty which Implies lore and veneration. But we did have a settled de? termination to observe the-compact of surrender. We could not resist the logic of tacts that we were a whipped, a defeated people, and lt was our earnest ana honest intention to render due and law? ful obedience to the ' Constitution of the United 8tates, and the lawfully constituted auth-rities thereof. Three yean have paased away since that scene ander the apple tree at Appomattox. Where are we today? What has been our course? The Republicans were then in power, and placed at the head of affairs a man who, having our own chuleo, we would not have touched with a forty foot pole, and wo bare been made the victims of what they suppose to be bis perfidy towards then- party, and an Interference with their designs to retain unlimi? ted power and the permanent control of the govern? ment. Thoa we have been brought to our present condition, and I openly proclaim lt bathe st reels of Charleston, yea, opon the house-tops, and in the hearing of the spies who may be listening to me-I proclaim lt opon my responsibility as a man and a citizen, that th? people of ] the South are to-day mere estranged from the peo? ple of the North than they were at the time of the surrender. (Applause.) lt ls not oar fault We have not wished to be so. Bat instead of expert en. clog that lenity and magnanimity which a great party should bare exhibited towards a fallen, weak and suffering people, we have been made the victims of the moat relentless persecution that any people hare endured in any age- Are we governed by those who are oar equals lu intelligence, wealth and social "position T Are we not under the heel of an Inferior race ? And does lt not behoove ns to seek by every meana, which God and nature have granted os, in the exercise of oar peaceful lights, to over? throw a party which has so relentlessly forgotten that the white man ls a- brother, and has placed the negro above the Caucasian race? At the North th's question is a mere sentiment, and in every instance in which it has been suomi t ti d to the -people th?yhave declared against that senti? ment. Yet these very Republicans who repudiate universal a. ffrago at home, are using every means to foist it opon the people of the South. A few words more. This is the time io carry tho war into the enemy's camp. They have Just finish? ed their war with the Pr- aident; instead of demolish in 4 him, their own ranks have been broken and scat? tered. In the defence made by the Pre - iden t, there was a vigor and manliness, a self-consciousness of right in the calm, deliberate way in which he sur? rounded himself with the forensic ability of the coun? try, and battled from day to day with that impeach ment committee who followed him with all the relentlessness of bloodhounds. The re? sult has been that Mr. Johnson has been acquitted in S manner grateful to our feel? ings. Now is the time why? statesmanship should be exerted, If any exists, with a view of still further dispersing the' rou1 ed and defeated Republi? cans, and with the view of strengthening and sup. porting tho Democratic party of the co miry. I be? lieved to that parir when its prospects were gloomy and its pulse beat low, and I believe in it now. The Republican party is a porty of spoils and plunder, and it is their d?termination to maintain themselves in powerat all hazards. Tho people foresee the in? evitable ruin to which such a rule must lead tho country, and euch ls the reaction taking place that I feel confident -that the presidential elections of 1868 will show that the Democratic party has re-asscrted its power m the connella of the country I ought not to close without paying a tribute to that noble Democratic delegation m Congress-to those forty men who, day by day and night by night, surrounded by a rabid crew, ready to devour them in their malignity, have stood shoulder to shoulder, and, I was about to say, like a Spartan band, bat it is more appropriate to the time and place to compare them to a Confederate phalanx. [Great applause.] It has been supposed that this meeting was calcu? lated to produce some disturbance in thc State. I do not believe it There ls no reason why we should anticipate any division, or why we should not unite for the common purpose of carrying the Democratic party forward in triumph. Let us, then, raise our banner-be not discouraged by the vaporing around us, and by fidelity to ourselves, victory will crown our efforts. [Applause.] SPEECH OF HON. J. B. CAMPBELL, This gentleman being loudly called for, spoke as follows: Fellov-citizent of Charleston: Having occupied your patience on Saturday evening, I cannot under? stand why you should insist upon my addressing you on tho present occasion. It is true that I could talk to you upon this subject from now until gray morn, but I do not think the present circumstances are pro? pitious for any extended discussion. There is one thing, however, to which I can with propriety allude. Since I had the honor of addressing you, a great change to our local government has occurred.- I told you then that there was no middle ground upon which you could stand. Whether it was inspiration or knowledge, it was prophetic, and tho prophecy has been verified. You have been placed by military power under the dominion of the African race. There are those who are timid and nervous in the expression of their opinions ; bot so long as I have a voice or an American heart no power can deter me from the uttetance of my convictions. I have no fear of military power. Already they have taken from me .kat which ia as dear almost aa life itself They have subverted the constitution of the country under which I was born, and they have deprived their own race of its native privileges, and consigned it to the barbarism of Africa, ff it were of any use, or if it were in good taste, I would denounce the authors of this wrong with every accent that I could control. 'There is no language too strong to be neel in describing those who have sent their military here to hold their equals, uot ia subjec? tion to themselves, but to a barbarous and lately emancipated race. I would net be understood as Baying an unkind word in ref crone o to that rac? ; to mme of its members I acknowledge the deepest obligations. While my household was in Columbia, and the savages of our - own color were rioting ia a carnival of destruction, my own servants, by their care for my family, and protection of my property, imposed upon me a debt of ' gratitude which, under all circumstances, I shall acknowledge. Indeed, if there is one individual of tho colored race who, for any cause, has had occasion to utter complaint against me, I have yet to hear il More than that, I am free to acknowledge that I have a pro? found respect for the race, in comparison with that class of white men who. now undertake to be their leaders. Recently we had a convention of | what was called the people of South Carolina. In that body there was a majority of the colored race. In their department, whether personal or pol?tica] ; in their ability ; in everything which makes men re? spectable, they were vastly superior to the white ele? ment (Great applause.) They represented a con? stituency; they represented the labor of the country, and they did honor to it The white mon in that 'assembly had no constituency. They represented, neither the property, the good character, nor the ability and. decency of the State. ..With some two or-three ignoble exceptions, they re? presented nothing but their own carpet bags. (Applause.) I draw these distinctions he cause in - the conflict which bas begun, I do not wish to be regarded as an enemy of the col? ored race. I say to you frankly, that they are vast-' ly superior in everything thst makes a man to those who are making tools of them. Our Mends ta Columbia have put themselves forward upon a platform which' particularly recognizes the colored race as being entitled to the rights ot citizenship, so lar as relates to equalized suffrage They have done so at a time when We think the movement will re? sult In injury to the Democracy of the State, and perhaps weaken our friends ia the North and West Because we diner from them somewhat ia the propriety of this mov ment, there has been an evident loss of temper on their pert But for once I wish to s?e no con? flict or division. And I am unwilling that a few gen- j tlemen who have organized themselves into an exe cutire committee, four of whom reside in Columbia, one m Kershaw, one in Chester, and one in Abbe? ville, excluding all below Columbia from participa? ting in the government of the party, should under? take to say what shall be the plank in the platform on which we of the City of Charles ton and neighbor? ing districts shall stand. What brought Ohio, Penn? sylvania, Connecticut and other States into the D?mocratie ranks? What has increased the num? ber of votes to which we are entitled in tte electoral college, but the tho square Issue made on this ques? tion of suffrage ? Yet our friends in Columbia seem to think that this is not success enough, and, accordingly, declare the necessity of in? corporating a provision in their platform that suf? frage shall be e. tended to tho negro. For what? I can conceive of no reason except that it is to carry the municipal election of the town of Columbia. 11 do not think it is our business, as citizens of Charles? ton, to allow the occasion to pass without a grave and friendly remonstrance. I think they have done us wrong, although not intentionally; but it is a wrong,,which lt is our business to protest against, and, if possible, to remedy. Mr. W. A. Wardlaw now moved that a committee be appointed to ascertain whether any of the dele-1 gates would be unable to attend the Convention, with authority to All such vacancies as might occur. Mr. T. J. Knauf? suggested, as an amendment, that the original nominating committee of fifteen should take this matter in hand. Which amendment being accepted by Mr. Ward law, was agreed to. The meeting then adjourned, ? C BUSINESS NOTICES. HTH.
