The minutes of the last meeting were read

Before prooeediniMlP the regular business,
Alderman Whilden said? ., _
Mr. Mayor and Members of City Conned :
In behalf of myself and Alderman Olney,
I have a few remarks to make before the
commencement of the regular business of this
body and ask your indulgence for a short time
Jiany of von, and quite a large number of the
citizens of "Charleston, whose opinions are en?
titled to respect, are surprised that we should be
oocupving the position of Aldermen; more
especially when it is so well known the part
that we took in the late struggle, and the news
that we entertain and have openly expressed
reference to the changes that are daily taking
place around us.
The recent order of Gen. Canby, by which
the majority of the most useful members
our Board have been removed, and the reten
t?on in office of three of us who were so folly
identified with the course adopted by this
State, from 1861 to 1865-and whose opinions
and convictions have undergone no change
has somewhat surprised us, which retention
in office we consider very far from being oom
plimeatary.
We axe here from a sense of duty, and feel that
it ls due to those who placed us here that we
should remain to aid in protecting their inter?
ests, ae far as lies in our power; when removed,
our responsibility to them ceases.
In our inter course with many of the mern
bers of this boardT which intercourse must ne?
cessarily be only of an official character), we
trust that that wide difference which we are
well aware does exist in our political opinions,
shall not engender any disagreement purely
forpartyadvancement. .
We all profess' to ' have the welfare and pros
perity of the City of Charleston at heart, al?
though differing possibly as to the mode of its
accomplishment. Heretofore politics did not
enter into municipal affairs, and it is unneces?
sary that it should now. Although cir?um
stances have thrown ns together, we can illy
afford to waste our energiesin empty disagree?
ments on matters which may jeopardize our
prosperity commercially. Our temi of office
which we are led to believe will be short, can
be well spent in completing work that has been
trust- that we will' aim so to conduct the
affaira of this cit? that the entire community,
irrespective of party, may approve our actions.
- Alderman Cif^rk arose ana said jj
Four Sonor and Gentlemen ;
It is with deep emotion that I at this time
feel myself called upon to make a few remarks
opon our present connection. Thrown to
r -gether as we are by the throes of a revolution,
we of the North with you of the South, we of
the white race with your of the colored, it be
cornea ns to well consider our relations one to
another, and to the ooraro unity.
We tre here by appointment, and not by selec?
tion. We are here to serve our city the same
as if elected; to do that, we have taken our
solemn oaths.
" We fuller npon our duties, the most of us,
rm acquainted with the minutia)'of the business
which we are expected, to faithfully perform.
To know that business we must learn, and
learning must act? /
Gentlemen, aware as we- all are of how closely
our action a will fte watched, our motives ques?
tioned and resulte approved or reproved-it
will become os to weil consider every step we
m iv take, every act we may perform.
Tis well known that, with our fellow-citizens,
the representation in Council of the colored
rac?is now regarded as an experiment, upon
the results of which, to an almost paramount
extent, depends jts future unquestioned recog?
nition. And; gentlemen, are we equal to the
emergency? ab all we succeed? Let us all
say we will, and saying we will, let our actions
and the results of'those actions show the suc?
cess.
Our city is in an unenviable situation in her
finances-inlier commerce-in fact, in all that
makes prosperity; and now for myself, our
worthy Mayor and aU our fellow-citizens, I call
loudly ind earnestly upon you, one and ail. to
give ?your best labors ? and efforts to place ber
-our beloved city-in the proud position to
which she is entitled among the cities of
America. \ -
Let us work together with a will, and in a
reasonable: time we shall see her coming
into Una with Baltimore, New York and Bos?
ton: then indeed wiU she be the Queen City by
the8ea.

Alderman Olney, from a special committee,
made the following report, which was adopted:
At the last regular meeting of Council a
communication was received from Dr. George
S. Pelzer, City Registrar, asking for the ap?
pointment of a special committee to examine
into his official records, and particularly his
cash account, and report upon the same. Al?
derman Olney, Steinmeyer, and O'Neill were
appointed on that committee, and immediately
proceeded to the discharge of their duties.
During the investigation two of the aldermen
were removed by order of General Canby; they,
however, concluded the duty assigned them,
and present their report through the chairman
of the committee.
Your committee would respectfully report:
That they .hare given the matter their mo6t
careful and earnest attention. Every book and
paper connected with the office, as well as that
of the Hea'fb Department since its organiza?
tion in lB'S, have been carefully examined,
and, we are pleased to say, found correct. We
find the vouchers all countersigned by the
proper authority, and in our opinions, from
careful observation during the examination, of
the working of the office in connection with
the Health Department, in each and every par?
ticular, has been conducted with a due regard
to- economy ; and the thanks of this community
are due to the Registrar, Dr. George 8. Pelzer,
for the faithful discharge of his duties. .

The following ordinance was ratified in due

THE CHARLESTON MARKET.
[FOB TBE WEES ENDING THU BSD AT, JUNE 4. ]
COTTON.-The market early in the week had a
temporary tendency to better prices, both the Liver
pool and New York mirkets having slightly imp: ov.
ed, but during much of the week the article hag
been very quiet and factors to make sales have had
generally to submit to concessions. Wh:le manufac?
turers are by a judicious management of the demand
preventing to a great decree the upward tendency
which short supplies should give the staple, it is not
to be supposed tint the most skilf il manipulation
can eucceed in depressing prices much below
present quotations. If reports from the
interior are to bo relied on it may be considered cer?
tain that overa large section of the cotton belt there
has been a most decided falling off in thc amount of
the land planted in the staple, estimates generally
making it amount to one-fourth decrease, which will,
without estimating the effects of other injurious ic
fluences, produce a positive decline m the amount
of the yield. The staple at the leading points bas
fluctuated but slightly, Liverpool having opentd at
Un improved to lltf@ll?,'@ll>id fy lb for mid
diing upland, while the New York market, which be?
gan at 30?30>?, stiffened to 31, declined to 30???31,
stiffened to 31, and closing yesterday at 31 cents fy
lb for Now York -Middling, while at this point
the dull market and limited transactions have caus?
ed a difficulty during much of th" time in quoting
reliably, but holders were generally asking 30c. fy
tts for middlings, while buyers offered 29c. fy lb ; in
order, however, to make sales, factors had generally
to accept the rates of buyers. The arrivals for the
week have been vu y light and were 3 bales of tel
islands and Floridas and 823 bales of upland, against
- bales of sea islands and Floridas, and 1334 bales
of upland the week before, and 9 bales of sea islands
