LEGE.-We are gi id to announce that tho exer? cises of the Medical College ot the State of South Carolina will be resumed o.\ Monday morning, the second November, at nine o'clock.

Here we have a great and pleasing variety of groups and landscapes by the first artists of our own and . other lands reproduced with absolute fidelity, net only of outline, but of touch und tint. The ; pictures certainly surpass any collection of the kind ever seen in Charleston. THE MINSTRELS.-Ethiopia stretched out her hand last night, and notwithstanding the . attractions presented by the circus the thea? tre was not neglected. This is the season for amusements, and lhere are few persons who are not willing to spare some of their cudi for enjoyment. The minstrels were peculiarly happy last night, and were greeted with rounds of applause. The comic songs aud witty say? ings were excellent, and the burlesques capi? tal hits. The term of engagement closes to? night, and this last opportunity should he em? braced by all who desire to see a firstrate jjerforniancd and enjoy a hearty laugh. MEETING OF CITIZENS OF ?"ABD 2.-At half past six o'clock last evening, about twenty citi- j . zoos of Ward 2 assembled in ono of the small rooms of the Hibernian Hall. On motion of C. . C. Trumbo, Esq., the meeting was called to or? der, and Mr. Seth Spencer requested to take the chair, and Mr. Walter Webb to a' t as sec . retary. On motion of Mr. C. C. Trumbo, the - chair appointed tho following committee of five as delegates to the Nominating Convention, to assemble at Masonic Hall, viz: Messrs. C. C. Trumbo, ii. T. Axon, D. Boinest, Walter Webb . and John Doyle. On motion of Mr. C. C. .**Trumbo, the meeting then adjourned.^ T A NUISANCE.-There arc certain street cor? ners, noted lounging places, that are always - crowded with men and boys, who indulge in loud and boisterous talk, much to the disgust of persons who ar% compelled to pass in that di? rection. The northeast corner of King and Wentworth streets is one of these popular re? sorts, and eveiy afternoon is occupied by a number of persons who obstruct the sidewalk, and are by no means choice in their language. - One of the duties of the police is to keep the pavements clear, and a httle attention to this matter would be a great accommodation to the public. _ THE Cut CUB.-Tho mammoth canvass of - John Bobin son's great circus was again filled to its utmost capacity last night by a laughing audience. None can go to this circus and keep a smooth countenance, for (he laughter will ' burst out, and the applause is genuine and un? affected. The feats of agility, the vaulting, leaping and dancing,' cannot be excelled. Tho riding is perhaps one of the bett features, and the equestrians of both sexes aro thoroughly at home on horso back. Some cf the performers are quite joung, but are all fearless riders. The riding is, however, not the only attraction, as the programmo is varied. The Ku-Klux K'.anis ono of the richest and most amusiug farces that has ever appeared on sawdust The menagerie comprises a number of rare - birds and beasts, aud is well worth a visit. Re? member this afternoon and to-night the last opportunities will be afforded to the citizens of Charleston to see this unrivalled exhibition. THE BRITISH STEAM LIKE.-At an early hour yesterday our citizens were gratified by the ar? rival of the British steamship Golden Horn, Captain H. C. McBeth, from Hartlepool, on the northeast coast of England, which port she left on the 8th of October. She came down the cast coast of England, through the En? glish chanuel, and straight across the Atlantic, .passing a lit: ?o to the north of Bermuda. This ship-is tho pioneer of the Une io Liveipool, is a first-class sca-going steamer, built at Hartle? pool in 18G5, measures ono thousand one hun? dred and eighty-eight tons, has two decks, is brig rigged, cliptical stern, two hundred aud thirty feot in length, thirty-one feet beam, twenty-three feet held, and will take about - twenty-fivo hundred bales of compressed cot? ton. Her engines were built at Stoekton-upon Tees, and possess all tue reliability and eub etantial characteristics which aro* traits of En? glish machinery. Much of her cargo has been already engaged, and alie is rapidly filling up, - and will leave ou tin 13th of November for Liverpool, when she will be speedily followed by the Bosphorns and Marmora, all first-class British built vessels. Her agents here are Messrs. R. Mure & Co., long and favorably known iu the English liade, and who v al usc every effort to ma!;e the line a s^oess. aad it only needs thc favorable support ot the South? ern people to have a permanent and valuable aid to Southern trado. Th : necessity ofspeedy and rapid communication between tho South? ern ports and Liverpool by steam, in order to facilitate commercial transactions and give immigration, so much needed ia this section, a direction this way, renders it of the highest ?consideration that a good steam line should be ustainei fro m this port to Liverpool. ] THE CENTRAL CLUB AND THE WAED GATIOHS.-At tho meetia? of the ward < tiona, held last nirht at the Masonic H: resolutions adopted by Ward 7 Club wc: niittcd to the Central Club, which body cd the following preamble and resolutio TT/i'Tfrts, Thc Contra! Democratic C vited the various Ward Clubs to app comaiittee of Conference upon the coi be pursued by the Democratic party ol' tl of Charleston in relation to thc ensuir nicipal election; and whereas, at that c ence, in oid3r to test the sense ut tho < euee, it was resolved that it wis inexpedi run a Democratic candidate ; be it Resolved, That the Ceutial Dc-mocrali recommend to the various Ward C u meet next Monday evening, as citizens, various clubhouses, and, then and there five citizens from each body so assembl?e shall meet OP tho next evening at M Hall, at 7 o'eciock, and ther- organize selves imo a Committee of Citiz?ns. and nate suitable candidates for Mayor and men, to be put forth as Citizen's candida Resolved, That the members of thc C Democratic Club, as^ individuals, will K? the counsel and aid in their power in cai out lo the fullest extent Hie successful ol .of the candidates so chosen. The foregoing were thru communical the delegates from the various wards ar cepted by them. THE BASK OF THE STATE.-The argnmoi the writ of mandamus played forby thc l noy-Geoeral on behalf of the State agains President and Directors of the Bank o State, was continued before Justice W yesterday. Colonel Thomas Y. Simons, in an able elaborate argument, replied to the argu of the Attorney-General. He showed that bank was a chattered corporation, and as responsible to its creditors, and that the faith of the State being pledged to those c tors in tho first place to mako them si from the assets of the bank, and in thc sc place to pay their claims in a certain ord priority, it was not competent lor thc L j turo of tie State to tro back on that arru ment and make a different disposition ol assets. At the conclusion oi Colonel Simous' a mont, Major D. T. Corbin rose ar.d cone! the argument on the part ol th.- ?tate, ma the following points: That mandamus wherever there is no other legal ten: and there being no other adequate rei: in this case, mandamus was the appr ate proceeding. That the mandamus not Bought in this case to test thc val of the law, because tho claimants acted u the law, and it was oi ly the respondents disputed its force. lu regard to the 8tituticnality of the act of 1869, it was nc conflict with tho various acts passed in relo to tho Bant of the State before thc war, cause they only pledged the profits of bank, and the bank no longer had profits; though it did repeal the act of 1865, that no violation of tho Constitution of thc Un States, because tho act ot I860 was in no st a contract, but simply au act ot legisla favor, without consideration and without ties, the very essence of a contract. In rep to the objection that ether suits were pend the respondents argued themselves oui court, for, if only one court could take ( nizance of the matter, the suit was only in State Court of Chancery, and not in Hie Uni States Court, aud the suit in tho State Co was put an end to by the act itself, the c stitntionality of which had not been qaejtfi cd in that court. Moreover, tho suit iu United States Court was not properly a pendeus, because no answer had b put in, and as the bil! was against Governor of the State, as such, the suit wo be dismissed as soon as il was brought to notice of the court. The act of 1865 was pro' to be unconstitutional by thc case of Con vs. Arkansas, because it was an attempt to p fer the bondholders to the biilhohlcrs wh the bank had an outstanding currency $3.000,000. There was nothing in the act 1868 to show that thc State intended spoli?t; or robbery; on thc contrary, they had provic especially, in a liberal manner, for the b holders, and the whole past financial history the State was a guarantee that the other ere tors were safe. Hon. J. B. Campbell, to whom was assign the duty of closing the argument on behalf the respondents, spoke until the hour oft journment, but had not time to do mach mo than indicate the course of argument which intended to pursue. He called the attentii of Justice Willard to the groat and unusual ii portance of tho case, not so much on accou ot the large sums of money involved, but c account of the momentous question to bc d cided, not only for this State or country, b for the whole commercial world, whether leg rights could be maintained in South Carolin by the integrity of the judiciary ugaiust tl assumptions of power. He shov?d that, u: der the now State Constitution and the acts the present Legislature, an Associate Justii of the Supreme Court at Chambers cou only grant a mandamus according to tl law as heretofore practiced in South C; Ima, and that according to the law : so practiced mandamus did not lie ui less the claimant could show legal titi* There was no title or pretenca of title on th 'part of the claimants in this case; they eve acknowledged title iu the respondents. Mort over, at the common law. tho writ of manda mus did not lie as a remedy in matters of pro perty, and the act of the present Legislatur? enabling jthe Attorney-General to sue out th writ in such cases, waa in words confining hi power to cases where there ha l been an iutiu sion upon the properly of the State, or a nui sance committed thereon. The Prcsi dent and Directors ot' the Bank ol thi State, so far from bein? intruders upoi tho property of tho State, or guilty o committing a iiuisauce thereon, were ackuow lodged to be the owners of the subject mattel in dispute by the very act to enforce whicl this mandamus was prayed, and nlso by thc plaintiffs on the record. He also showed thal by the words of the act organizing the Su? preme Court, it rendered the decision of any one Justice of that Court, on a matter of }iicinda mus, liable to appeal, aud that it vas the prac? tice in this State heretofore to make the man? damus in the first instance alternative, either to perform the required act, or to show cause for not so doing, and that when tho mandamus had been made peremptory by a. Circuit Judge, it wa3 still liable to be sot uside by the Court of Appeals. Mr. Campbell will continue his argument to? day. HOTEL ARRIVALS-October 90.-Charleston Hot tl.-Robert Shaw.
