HO JF TUE I'OTES WEltE COUNTED.
Tremendous Excitement lu thc City
Hopes and Fears-Boisterous Exulta?
tion of the Negroes.
The excitement in tho eily yesterday was
even groat< r than on election day. Early ip
the morning tho iniprcssiou was general among
both Radiccl8 and Conservatives that the Citi?
zens'candidate tor M ivor, and a respectable
majority of thoir candidates for Aldermen, bad
boen elected. As long as this impicssiou pre?
vailed the city wi?s quiet, which continued to
be the caso until alter oloven o'clock. The
counting of tho votes having thon progressed
sufficiently to show that tho election was vary
doubtful, tho excitcmont of both blacks and
whites was worked up to tho highest pitch.
A crowd of nearly if not quito a thousand ne?
groes gathered at the comer of Broad and
Meeting'streots, and the white people collected
in groups on tho principal thoroughfares. The
contre of attraction was, of course, thc State
House and tho City Hall, where tho votes of
ten products wero being coantod-only one,
Ward 8, teing counted at thc Upper Guard?
house, and Word 3 at Market Hall. About ore
o'clock, the announcement of tho result in ono ]
of the heavier negro wards infused hopo and
courage into tho colored throng outside, and
they sent up a yell that made themselves and
a gr?at many othors believe, that Pillsbury's
election had already been announcod.
They rcpeatod thoso demonstrations on
orrery announcement favorable to Pillsbury,
anti at every frosh outbreak thc crowd was in?
creased by nogroes 00ming up from various
parts of tho city. Meanwhile tho white peoplo
stood aloof from tho Hall, only a straggling re?
porter now and thon gows in to learn what
the news was, and ho could scarcely hud bis
way back to tho office of his paper for b:ing
stopped by cager citizens anxious to learn tho
latest intelligence. The newspaper offices wero
crowded and dense throngs surrounded the bul?
letin boards for hours. Reports wero rife of
disturbances and fights, but most of thom
proved-to ba without foundation. Finally,
about thrco o'clock it was announced that all
the votes for Mayor had been counted, and
that Gilbert Pillsbury was elected bysoveutocn
majority. The negroes then fairly mada the
welkin ring, and the crowd that was about tho
City Hall dispersed in various directions
through the city, shouting and yelling, the mon
whirling their sticks over chair heads, and tho
women jumping, dancing and waving shawls,
bonnets, or whatever loose articlo they might
havo in their hand-in abort, carrying on as if
they were stark mad.
At ono timo, shortly after tho announcement
of the result had boou made, a report was cir?
culated that a mistake had bean made in tho
return from the first precinct of Ward No. 3,
and that Mr. Lososno was elected by fifty-four
majority. This report was believed by a great
many pooplc, and tho consequent ombracings,
shakings of bands and g?neral gesticulations
indulged in by gentlemen of acknowledged
steady habits were scarcely less remarkable
than the uncouth demonstrations of the other
pariy. This false hopo, however, was soon
dispelled, and it is no exaggeration to say that
a feeling of de?pondoncy and insecurity 3ottlod
down upon the city, Mich as had not been felt
since the riotous days of '66. Wo givo below
some detached incidents of the day.
ATTACK ON THE EES ID EN CE OF E. W. MAB
BHAIX, ESQ.
Yesterday afternoon, shortly after the result
of tho election had been announced, a party of
negroes waited on the Mayor elect to congra?
tulate him on his success. On their way back,
whether un 'er the influence of rofrcshmont
partaken of at-liis houso, or mordy laboring
under the general excitement of tho day, they
made an attack on tho residence of ex-Alder?
man E. W. Marshall, near Sc. Paul's Church,
slamming the shutters of the basement win?
dows to and fro, and threatening farther vio?
lence. Mr. Marshall went out at once and ad?
dressed them, and, with the assistance of IL
C. DoLargc and some olhcr persons, succeed?
ed in presenting any other demonstration.
Mr. Marshall notified Mayor Clark of tho occur
renco, but ho replied that it was only an e-slii
bition of Ihe feeling of tho peoplo.
THE DEAD O CK ON A POLE.
In the afternoon about five o'clock a mob or
some hundred or more negroes passed the of?
fice of THE DAILY NEWS, shouting for Pillsbury
and carryins, elevated on a long polo, a doad
rooster, evidently intended to ridiculo our
rooster who crowed too soon in the morning.
They also carried a skinned opossum on another
pole, but the meaning of tbat strange emblem
wc wereunahlo to divine. Probably it signified
that the time bad como lo cat Judge Aldrich's
opossum, with which heretofore only their
mouths and hands had becu greased. Tho
municipal opossum is still raw like the one on
their pde, and ly tho: time it is cooke 1 tho
poor negroes will find that it has blipped
through their bauds into Ibo gullet of some
white Radical. ?
ASSAULT ON S TETUS EY r.ILEY -RIOTOUS CONDUCT
OF THE N^OaOES.
The buld, outspoken action of Stephney
Riley, the colored livery stable keeper, in ba?
hai! of thc Democratic party, gained bm tho
ill will ot tho majority of thc freedmen who
wtrc devoted to tho Pillsbury cause, and ho
has boen frequently subjected to their insults.
The two last elections brought out this ill feel?
ing, and Riley, 011 several occ sions, narrowly
escaped being mobbed for thc activo port that
ho had taken for the Democrats. Tbc excite?
ment causod by tha election for Mayor, and
tho subsequent counting of tho votes, wa3 not
allayed when Riley drove past the Courthouse,

and he was instantly pursuod by the crowd.
He succeeded in makin? Iiis escapo,
but was followed Dr samo distance by tho
nob. Ono of bia carriages was stopped
and tho horses knocked do sn, but thc driver
I succeeded in rescuing his vehicle from their
clutches. Riloy having eluded his pursuers,
they turned toward his stable with tho inten?
tion of destroying his pro porty, but ii had been
already removed to a place of safety. A-< soon
as it was known that Kiley was threatened by
a mob, a number of the white citizans resid?
ing iu that neighborhood offered their botases
as places of rcfur.o tor his family, and slated
their willingness to stand by him in any
emorgency. Thero aro some favors that can?
not be forgotten, and Riloy's fearless conduct
in voting according to tbo dictates of his con?
science will always bo remembered by those
for whom he imperilled his personal safety and
businosB prospects.
POLICEMAN KNOCKED DOWN AND BEATEN.
About three o'clock, Privato Sargon t, of tho
polico force, who was on guard at thc corner of
King and Queen streets, attempi.d to stop the
crowd of negroes who wow pursuing Step liney
lilley, and conmencod to expostulate with
them. They immediately turned on him and
j beat him severely, and would probably have
killed him if it had not been for the interfer?
ence of threo soldiers whom General Clitz had
sent to patrol tho city. These soldiers fortu?
nately coming up at thc time, rescued Sargent
from the hands of tho mob.
CITIZENS KNOCKED DOWN AND COT WITH RAZORS.
Thc samo crowd that pursued Riley and beat
Sargent also attacked Mr. Charles Harvey, an
unoffending painter, at tho corner of Bcaufain
and Archdalo streets. Thoy knocked hi m down
aud then foll upon him with razors, cutting up
his clothos and wounding hi? person in several
places. Tho eagerness of their pursuit after
Riloy alone prevented them from ?auhing the
unfortunate Mr. Harvey.
MOBBING AND ."TABBLNO.
While Mr. Duncan Cameron, a respectable
citizen, was attempting to pass thiough the
crowd at the corner of Meeting and Broad
streets, he was beaten and cut in tho neck
with a knife. Fortunately, ho succeeded in
getting out of tho way before ho was quito
murdered. Thc special constables, who might
have been of 6omo service if they were any?
thing moro than a prc:cnct\ wcro not on hand,
or, il they wero, thoy did not niako any atlempt
to dofend Mr. Cameron.
SACKED DANCE Of THE NEO KESSES.
During tho early part of Tuesday mght the
plank road in Calhoun-slrcot, between East
Bay and Washington-street, waa made tt?
answer tho purposos of a ball room floor by
somo fifty or ono hundred cegrcssos, whj
yelled and stamped, jumped, pitchod aud rant?
ed, as if they were inspired by tho devil bim
se'f; though iu fact they had no other inspira?
tion than tho bad whibkoy distributed by Pills?
bury's agents. Thc orgies of theso female
bacchanalians weio a great annoyance to the
neighborhood, aud if they wero likely to cou
tiunc would result in the plank road being
torn up.

tho direct lina had boeu altogether attributed
to his firm. Ho did not, howevor, desire to
taite moto credit than was their due, and he
wouid say that tho lino would not havo been
established but for Ibo co-operation and sup?
port of tho pr?sidant and directors ol tho
South Ca olma Railroad. Ho showed tile as?
sistance he had received at tho Lands of the
directors, and said that, although without
their aid, tho Golden Hom might have visited
our waters, she would not havo boen llieu tho
forerunner of a fljet of first-class fetcanisUips.
In couelud'ng ho propaicd thc health of Presi?

Robert Mure, Esq , Agent Steamslvp Lin?:
Mv DEAR SIR: I regret oxcaediugiy that I

engagements for to-morrow, which will runt .
it impossible to loret you ami friends ot Ibu
Golden Horn, in tho indulgence of those joy?
ful feelings which have he n inc.tcd hythe
gleam ut a new day far our eily, which ?bj
heralds.
It would be superfluous to assure yon of th.
profound interest I take in the e unplcto n .

which, wilbah my henri, I w li oc-oporulj with
you.
For fifteen years luis thing of direct steam?

indispensably ncccsfnry to give ritjlity to
those interior lines t.f coaimauicatiou which
our people havo so labored lo construct. And
now that it is so auspiciously inaugurated, thu
quickened pulsations along those lines of more
than two thousand miles of rail, support me
tn tho promise I niako for them, as for myself,
that Bo far as their earnest, constant ami zeal?
ous olio, ts can accomplish their success, thc
"Li vet pool an .1 Charleston Direct Steamship

With the assurance of thc highest respect
and friendship for yourself, Captain Melieth

W. J. MAGRATH, President.
Mr. Henry Gourdin was then called on, au
after an effective sp9ech, toasted Capt. Mi
lioath, of tho Golden Horn.
The reply of Captain McBcath was
madel of practical good sense. B
spoke of tho liberality of the ownei
of the linc, and hoped that he woul
many timos rotura to these waters, lt mm
I be understood, however, that it depended o
us whether this were tho case ; for if we snj
poi tod tho lino wo could make it pio?.tabl
and therefore permanent. Ho wanted to sc
Charleston have a line of steamships of he
own, ?nd was confident that with proper effoi
a direct line could bc made lucrative to owner
as weil as advantageous to thc South.
The fol owing letter was read from J. I
.Steel -, Esq., Vice-Pr?sident of the Board c
Trade :
CHARLESTON, November ll, 18C8.
Capt.mi IL C. Meli-a h:
DEAS Sin-It is with feelings of sincere rc
srrct that I find myself compelled to dedin
your kind invitation ol 9 li i.istant. On al
most any other day I might have been abl
to jori*, you in commemorating tin's suspicion
occasion; but at prof?.nt, circumstances, wh:cl
it is needless to explain, render that bappines
imposible.
Though not with yon in person, I can assur
you ol my full apprechtion of the truly i m poi
tant object now celebrated, and am pleased t
join with you in heartily eulogizing the publi
spirit of ihosc citizeus through whoso energ
and perseverance so much bas been nccom
pushed.
While disorder and confusion ride rough
shod over the political and mercantile inter
esis ol our country, and a feeling of dislius
and despondency "seems to have obtained ai
almost universalI sway, wc cannot but turn will
fooling of pride and admiration to tuoso of ou
follow-citizo::s who, rising abovo thc chaoti
trouble about thrm, provo able and wildng to si
bravely assist the fallen fortunes of our "it;
and State.
Again wishing your enterprise a hearty am
substantial success. I remain
Your obedient servant,
JOHN B. STEELE.

General John A. Wagoner was expected to hi
present and toko part in tho agreeable cere
monies of tho occasion, but he was prevente?
from attending by sickness, and tho followinj
letter apologizing for hrs ab sonco was read :
CHARLESTON, November 10, 1808.
To Captain ll. C. Mc Heath, Steamship Golda
