Under General Sickles' reign, an order was issued forbidding any procession ?j?f any Und unless authorized by the post command - ant, and General Orders No. 10 (Sickles') prohibits thc carrying of a deadly weapon by any person not in the military service of the United States. These orders >have not been publicly revoked, but they should be -modified if ii la tobe uiideretcod-that they apply to - the whites only and not to the colored people. We . hare no rights to know, hut we like to know our -wrongs. -_* A MUSICAL THKTT.-Sinoe the disease known by the- mild name of ''appropriation'' has become iaiiionabie in civil life, It hasaasumed come startling .'phases, especially among certain dusses who are not : acquainted with tho terme "mine and thine." The lat - est development has. been the theft of canary birds. ' These Utile songsters have been taken from their . cages without alarming the inmates of the house, - and thus far nc due has been found to the thief. On Sunday night Mr. L. Groning, residing in Beaufaln ?? street, was robbed of three canarias, which were .-hung tn the piazza near his room window. A. simi? lar robbery was effected a few nights sin co in the up? per wards. A ^_ r, T?TOBTUKATE ACC?DENT.-While the mem . - bera of the Hope Fire Company were enjoying their .-.annual picnic at. the Schutsenplatz yesterday, the jpleamro* of the day were marred by an accident that occurred to one of their members. The crowd that followed the company from the- dty was so trouble? some that? became neoessary to shut them out, and -while endeavoiicg io shut the large gate, th?pjst, ?which was quito old and rotten, fell bringing the -gate with it Several of tho Hope Company, who were near the gate, made narrow escapes, but Mr. F. Puckhaber .waa thrown down, the heavy timbers .falling across Ida back. He was instantly extricated, . and rece red every attention, but his injuries inca? pacitated him from moving. Be WM taken to his home in the dty on a stretcher, and hopes are enter .'tsined of his speedy recovery. STOPPAGE OF Cut WORK.-In accordance -with an old ordinance no dirt digging is allowed within the dty limita' after the first of June, and the .-street brigade are reluctantly forced to confess that spades ara no longer trumps. Quite a number of .the discharged employees cf the dty congregated in the vicinity of the treasurer's office ye-terday morn? ing, and their dongated countenances showed plain? ly that their enforced Idleness was far from pleasant Mayor Cogswell has used the means at his command to their utmost extent, but the depleted condition of -the treasury forbids any farther outlay for public .improvements. The street force has been consider? ably reduced, and the only works that will be con? tinued are the necessary scavenger work and the asphalt pavements now in course of construction, and the shell road. Daring Mayor Cogswell's ad? ministration mach, has bean dene to improve the etty, and the. results thal have been, attained show ?Hat the money was not expended in vain. LxFZ-SrzE PHOTOGRAPHS.-The art of photo? graphing has attained a degree of perfection in Charleston, not surpassed bj hat which it has reichsfl in Kew York and Paris, ' i busy art cenlres of the old and new worlds. Some life-size portraits, recently executed at Quinby & Co.'s gallery, are the theme of general admiration for their fidelity and delicacy of finish. Conspicuous among these are pictures of Rt. Rev. Bishop Xynrh and Mayor Cf gs welL Messrs.. Quinby A Co. have recently added to the facilities of their establishment, Sarony's patent posing apparatus, by which the subject can as ume an inSnite variety of graceful attitudes for a portrait, with wonderful eafe and comfort. With th- aid of this ingeidous instrument, superadded to the long experience and pment care of Mr. Barnard, the chief operator, it is no wonder that Quinby'3 pictures are marvels of excellence. THE NEW COD NCTL AND WHAT rr PBOPOSES IO Ac courus H.-As soon as this body is thorough? ly organized, and the several members begin to understand each other, retrenchment will be the J order of tho day. Realizing that their capital is small, that Republicanism "ia at a discount In this community, and that they must create a good im? pression in order to secure the confidence of tat people, their earliest efforts will be devoted to tht work of generating those 'sturdy influences whlcl touch the individual pocket First and foremost the aim win be to lighten tht burden of city expense which now rests so heavllj upon the tax-payer. To achieve this object-and. they claim an ability to save a clean hundred then sand dollars-a portion of the police will, in pirati? cal phrase, "walk the plank." By some arithmeti? cal delusion, the idea has cork-screwed Itself into the fresh aldermanic brain- that fifty policemen can do the work of one- hundred,-and that by disbanding also the present detective; force, the same amount af good may bo done by enforcing double duty on the'intelligent members of the force who may be left, as at me present Unie. We shall Bee. Another means of attaining the end of economy will be in forcing the Oas Company to ??duce the fearful rates now charged to both city and private consumer for the privilege of burning the midnight lamp. There is no question that our citizens rea? sonably groan over the. monthly bills presented by that company. They are enormous. They absorb a goodly share of the profits o' every husmeas con? ducted in Charleston, and there is no help for it but to fly to th-l:-explosive evil-kerosene. This is pre? cisely what the Council propose to- do: Borne of the members have ascertained that it costs no more to syp coal to Lowell than to Charleston, and that notwithstanding this drawback, the city of spindles furnishes twice as many lights, and has three times as many consum?is, as there are'in Charleston, at the lo w prie e" of four dollars per thou? sand feet They nararally desire to know the why and wherefore, and li lt should-not happen to be ex plained satisfactorily, the (Ks Company will be pjlitsly.-requested to out off .their supply, and the city will put several thousand dollars Into its ex? chequer 07 fixing, :as a substitute, a patent kerosene lanrprpneverj,rJoat The above are only two out of half a dozen schemes of reform that a Won the rap?, butlf wey are carried out according to the anticipations of th? originators, the vary " trees will crap~their hands with Joy." THE MOUNT PLEAS ANT ST EAMES.-The con? nection from this city to Mount Pleasant and Sulli van's Island, by '.steamer was commenced some twenty years back by the date O. B. Hillard, who will i>e i erne m >? 0 red by many of our cit ixe us as a man of enterprise and energy. The small steamboat Major Hibben was the original boat on the route, and she ran for many years successfully, when the was re? placed by the steamers G. W. Coffee and the Mas as? soit The Hibben is now-lying in a disabled condi? tion at one of our wharves, under the name of "ides," The G. W. Coffee was rebuilt, and burnt the morning of the evacuation white 1 j lng at Rail? road Accommodation wharf, and the Massasoit was sold North before the war, after running here suc? cessfully for several years. Like most other things in this re zion, the end of hostilities found the wharves and everything appertaining to tho ferry in ruins; but lt was important that the enterprlse should be started, although the field was not invit? ing-nearly every dwelling on Sullivan's Island had been removed , or destroved, the island bad been dag np to construct batteries, and what wa* a few years back one of the most charm? ing seaside residences on the continent had become a waste, with hardly a building to note that it was|st one period the abode of comfort and elegance. The village of Mount Pleasant-was also but slimly inhabi? ted, and the surrounding country, upon the prosperi? ty of which the succaas of the ferry fi silly depend? ed, was suffering Uko other districts for the want of diligent cultivation. J* was important, however, that theso places should be reached with facility, and that the citizens ot Charleston should have them at-places of resort, to relieve the drudgery of city Uf?, "and; fortunately the property came into the possession of a gentleman. Mr. H. L, P. McCormick, wno has expendsd''large amounts In placing the landings lu the oliy, at Mount Pleasant, and at Sulli? van's Island in good order. The steamer Bookland, assisted occasiontlly by tte st. Helena,- runs the ferry with regularity, and while the enterprising proprietor has had heavy diffi? culties - to overcome, we are pleased to say that the prospect for_a successful summer traffic is bright, and yesterday he issued some seventeen hun? dred tickets for visitors to different points at which the steamer touches. The island houses are being rebuilt, and there is a large demand for residences at this point' which cannot be mst, and the prosperity bf Mount Pleasant is also looking up. This route ls under the business management of Mr. J. H. Mur? ray, who, lu ocnnection wUh the proprietor, E. L. P. McCormick, Esq., are using their best efforts to make tb is route a decided attraction to our citizens and strangers. UNITED STATES COUBT-MONDAY, JTOE 1 Hov. Gro.

CAUTION TO MOTHERS.-It is a habit with some curses to sit on the curbstone around the wafer edge of the Battery with children in their arms, and, like most negroes when in the sun? hine, they somehow manage to fall asleep. Such was the case yesterday, and a gentleman passing by just in tim-j happened to catch a lovely infant as it was about to roll from the lap of its attendant into the water below. Motheis cannot be too careful of the character of the persons to whom they commit their children, especially among the cosy temptations ol the Battery, and if the hint conveyed hythe above incident is sufficient, it may save somebody a coron? er's inquest and a funeral. COLORED PARADE.-TWO companies of colored men, much to the delight of the rest of the race, yes? terday paraded through the principal streets on their way to some locality ta the neighborhood, where Abey spent the day in target shooting. One of the 'companies carried guns wherewith to do the shoot? ing, but both were dressed in semi-uniform, and "kept step to the music of the Union," which was performed ou a fife and two drums. The two com? mands were duly officered by ramxod-y looking fel? low?, and the muchness of flag displayed reminded one of the general musters of ye olden time. Amr.ng other imitations of the "rale ould style" was c mi? croscopic specimen of Ethiopia carrying a homeo? pathic stars and stripes, but the poor little fellow's legs were so short he had to wobble with the most discomfitting rapidity, and everybody pitied him. The target was riddled in a most dangerous man? ner. . Our readers w?l remember that a year or two ago, when a colored organization paraded with, guns, these weapons of war were taken away from them on Citadel Oreen by order of General Sickles. This is, therefore, the first time in the histor}-.of the Stats that they have been permitted to appear thusly to the public eye. No one can doubt that things are moving, but whether the tendency is heavenward or hell ward, the future alone can decide. It is very certain that at present we are enjoying purgatory to the full, and there is a division ; of sentiment as to whether praying or "cussing'' vfOl help us out first. ELECTIONEERING EXTRAORDINARY.-The city ls in a great Btate of excitement A sheriff is to be elected, and General Grant and his cohorts could not work with greater zeal or better machinery than that which has been employed by the respective can* di da te s ta the field. E. VT. il. Mackey, the Republi? can nominee, has the colored population at his back, out Wadmalaw and John's Island are said to have promised to vote for another man. The general im? pression ia that be will be elected; we suspect that it does not amount to an Instinct Captain Sigwald, the present Chief of the Police, ia another candidate, and has been working like a beaver. The vote cast for him will be a strong one, but unfortunately for the prospecta both of Mr. W. S. Hattie, the other candidate, and himself, they are both popular men, end each wOl contribute to a division of the white voter This is likely, in a mathematical point of view, t? taQ favorably on the prospects of the Radical, E. W. M. M. The^ corner of Broad and' Meeting streets was thronged all day yesterday with the friends of the gentleman last named, and several bets were passed on the result, but ihe betting was about sven on both Messrs. Hastie and, Sigwald. Mr. Hastie's name has been placed at the- head of the Republican ticket. Mr.. Sigwald's ticket ls headed by a festive looking goddess of liberty in duplicit?, and Mr. Mackey ke?ps his style of ballot a secret until to-day. As our reid tra are already aware, the barrooms win be cloted until the election ls over. GRAND Pnunzcraio PARAPHERNALIA.-A RADICAL POW-WOW-TOBOHLHTHT PROCESSION-SER EDADES, Ac.-Who got lt up-whether the friends of the Radical nomm?e for the Shrievalty, or the spon? taneous colored people, or General Conby, or the car? pet-baggers-we don't know, but there is no sort of doubt that there was a cheap torchlight procession last night and a grand political fandango. The Post Band was conveniently engaged at the Charleston Hete', and consequently we do not suspect that the higher military authorities were at the bottom of this strange and turbulent turn-out; bul they, nevtr theless, had music of the slam-bang and bang-slam order, which Berved to wake everybody on the route of the procession. What that route was, we cannot undertake to say. It travelled variously, illuminat? ed tremendously, smoked powerfully, and serenaded vigorously. Everybody ta town who lias attended a Radical meeting must, we think, have been called on musically, and we reckon if lt had not been foe daylight tho procession would be industriously travelling still. They are s great people-these Rads, certain. They pull each other's innocent noses with a vehemence and adroitness worthy of a better cause. The procession WAS formed at eight o'clock at Tivoli Garden. Its organization was at first at? tempted by wards, but the influx of a horde of vile little colored folks from two to four feet high, each armed with a lightwood knot, disturbed the pro? gramme, and prevented the leaders from telling 'tether from which. So they conglomerated. W. N. Taft (white) acted as high priest and grand marshal of the occasion. Ho rode a horse. Sam Dickerson (black) was the next major domo, and like, wise played Bucephalus. "Confusion worse con fuzled" attended the efforts to start straight, but after awhile they, got ta motion, and preceded by a red, white and blue transparency, perambulated the Btreets. The words on the transparency were: "Look out I Mackey is coming I " On the other side, "United we stand, divided we fall." That's what the intoxicated gentleman said to the lamp post The majority of the transparencies wore simply triangular frames, with the tickets of the party bad? ly printed thereon, but there were one or two which looked very suspiciously Ilk J some of the fearful em? blems of the Ku-Klux-Klan, with the motto beneath, "Pillsbury's mo man." Another bore the legend, "Democrats can't buy.my vote." The rest of the illumination consisted of sporadic chunks of lightwood, served up with a peppering of blue flames and Roman candles. In three words, the exhibition was "grand, gloemy and peculiar." It was a noticeableable feature that the front part of the procession shouted loud and vociferously for "Mackey and Pillsbury," while the toll end of thc affair, doubtless somewhat demoralized, called aloud the euphonious appellation of "Sigwald, Sigwald, Sigwildl" BUSINESS NOTICES.
