THE NEW REGIME AND., How rr AFFECTS THE CoLOLED PEOPLE. -The election of Pills? bury seems to have turned the hoads of tho colored people, and they imagioe that, with their idol on tho tl rone, their wildest dreams will bc realized. A nombar of colored women, .evidently from the country, were seen yester? day, while passing through the back streets, to atop and view the houses and select some for their futuro residences. A lady was rudely poshed while endeavoring to pass between two negro girls, who took op tho whole sidewalk, / and, on remonstrating with them politely, was abused and told to tako the outside, as that was her place now that the election was over. .In no city of the Sooth have the colored peo? ple been moro kindly treated or had greater liber ty of speech and action accorded them than in Charleston. This has boen returned with -contempt, and they have recently not hesita? ted to sbow the "white trash" how they were esteemed. There is an old adage that "whom the Gods wish to destroy they first make mad,'' and the colored people should pause and re? flect on tho consequences of any antagonism between the races. The whites have been pa? tient and forbearing, bot they will not bn trampled upon. UNITED STATES COUBT, NOVEMBER IS-HON. G EOE OE S. CB YAN, F RES LD INO.-The United States ve. W. &. Morrison, Sam.

An extra meeting of Council was held laat night for tho purpose of considering thc pro? test of the citizens against tho legality of the recent Municipal election, ihe object of tho meeting had been noised abroad tb-iough the city, and about seven o'clock in thc evening, the hour for Council to assemble, a large num? ber ? >t persons, principally negroes, had col? lected in tho neighborhood of thc City Hall, apparently irita tho intenci?n of attending tho meotiug. A guard had, however, been put upon the City Hall steps, aud no one was al? lowed to enter the building except members of Council, members of th-j Board of Managers, the counsel in the case, and tho representa? tives of the press. The Council Chamber be? ing only capable of accommodating a small number of persous with any degree ol comfort, the precautions taken were necessary to pie serve order. There were.present at tho meeting, as mem? bers of Coupcil, Mayor Clark, Aldermen Ued? dings, Potter, Lindstrom, Dercof, Wall. Olnoy, Whilden, Honour, Voigt, Howard, McKinlay. Marshall and Moore. Messrs. J. H. Campbell, Isaac W. Hayne. C. Richardson Miles, A. G. Magrath, Edward Mc Crady, Jr., and Thoo. G. Barker attended as a committee on behalf of the citizens who pro? tested the election. Hon. W. D. Porter, City Attorney; Major JJ. T. Corbin, United Statis District Attorney; At? torney-General Chamberlain; A. J. Hausier, Chairman of tho Republican Stito Executive Committee, and some others, were also pres? ent. After the transaction of some routine busi? ness, tho Mayor called to the attention of Council tho protest of tho citizens which had been handed to him, and in so doing said that it boro oh its face the signatures of betweon fourteen hundred and sixteen hundred citi? zens, whose nane3 represented thc substantial j weight and character of the community; that it wa3 worthy of the moat serioiu consider? ation, and that to decido what wa3 their dui y in the matter demanded calm cousideiation, cool determination and firm decision. Alderman Wall (colored) requested that the law bearing on thc subject should bo read. The Major read the fifth sec Li or of thu Act of the Legislature of 1868, regulating Munici? pal elections, as follows : V. The Managers of Election shall meot at 10 o'clock A. M. on tho day succeeding such elec? tion, at some public place within the corporate limits of the city or town in which such elec? tion is held, and proceed to count the votes, under oath, stating the whole number of votes cast for each candidate or person voted tor, and shall transmit their report of the same in a toaled envelope to tho acting Mayor or Inten? dant of the city or town wherein they have been appointed; "and it there be no acting M ivor or Intendant in any such city or town, or in the absence of such M J, vor or Intendant, thc name shall bo transmitted to tho Clerk of Court tor tho county ia which said city or towu may bc. The said Mayor or Intendant, or Clerk of Court, shall open the report of said Managers, and shall announce and publish tho whole number of votes cast and the whole number cast for each candidato, when the several candidates receiving the largest number nf legal votes for tho offices for which they ware voted for shall be declared duly elected. The Managers of Election shall decide contested case J, subject to the ultimate decision of the Bo?rds of Alder? men or Wardens, when organised, except ?Then the election of a majority of thc persous voted for are contested, or the Managors charged with illegal conduct, in which case the returns, together with the ballots, shall be examined, and the case investigated by the acting Board of Aldermen, who shall decido thc election, and their decision shall be biudiug upon all parties. Alderman Wbilden offered tho following resolution, which was seconded by Alderman Voigt : Besoloed, That the place appointed by thiB Council to he.11 tho evidence in the matter of the protest o', the recent election bo thc City Court Boom, and the hour twelve o'clook Saturday, November 14, and to bo continued from day to day until completed. Sundays ex? cepted. Alderman Geddings said that it seemed to him that Council was proceeding rather rapid? ly, and yet he was not prepared to discuss the subject because he was just out of a sick bed. Thia was a matter of vital interest to every man in tho community. It touched tho wel? fare of every man; it went to tho foundation of our political and civil liberties; it reached for? ward to the future, affe".ing the fate of untold generations. It was, theieforo, of tho greatest consequence that every step should bo tiken after proper examination aud wiae considera? tion. In reading the protest a question had occurred to him, viz : whother tho managors had decided the election? . Mayor Clatk explained that in his opinion the Legislature in passing the act had under consideration places whero there was only one Board of Managers, and that here, where there were a number of boards, oach board had to report tc the Mayor, and this had be, n done; but before he had an opportunity ta open the reports and doclare the election, thc protest was handed in contesting tho election of a ma? jority of the ufScere voted for, and that a case was thus made for tho action of Council. Alderman Whildon called tho attention of Council to the fact that one of tho charges in the protest was against tho managors for ille? gal conduct. Alderman Wad (colored) took (ho ground that Council had no right to discuss this mat? ter until it had boen first pissed upon by the managers, and then by the new Board or Al? armen, because tho Council was tho court of final jurisdiction. Mayor Clark explained to Aldorman Wall (colored) his misapprehension of the law. Alderman Wbilden withdrew his resolution. Alderman Geddings asked if tho publication ot tho result of tho oloction in tho papers of Wednosday morning was official, or if there had boen any official declaration of thc result of thc olcction, Mayor Clark replied in tho negative. Alderman Geddings thea said that he could not sec what tho proLe.it was against. Mayor Clark explained that the protest was against the validity of thc election-not agaiust thc declar ition of the result in favor of any man or set of men. Alderman Wall said that this was z. protest, and that thc only authority fcivsn lo Council was in caso of contested elections. Nobody had appeared to contest thc election, aud therefore there was no case which Council could properly consider. Aldenum Geddings offered tho following preamble and resolution, which he said he scribbled off in a hurry under tho exigencies of the occasion : Whereas, The General Assembly of this Stato by an act constituted tho Mayors and Councils of tho several municipalities ropec tivcly in this Stato umpires to examine and declare the results of popular elections, and in certain exigencies therein set forth, and such exigoncy having arisen in the recent Municipal election of this city, in v.?ich it is contended that illegal coursos have been practiced, which have contributed toan el roneo aa result, and that a protest against snid action being uttcrcc and declared final, being numerously and re? spectably signed, hat? been presented to tho Mayor for his action and that of Council ; it ia there toro Iiesotwl, That it is tho duty of his Honor the Mayor and Council to appoiut an early day to verify the ballotinsa in ino various wards a3 kgally required, to take under oath evi? dences of fraud and other illegal acts Haid to have boen practiced iu tho recant Municipal elections, and in all no dful ways to courorm to tho Act of Assembly as an indfspensablo pre? liminary to an onie al enunciation of the re? sult of said election. Alderman Whiklen moved that in place of "an early day" his resolution previously offer? ed, but withdrawn, bc nwerted as an amend-1 Alderman Geddings accp'ed the amend? ment, t .? , . , Alderman Wbilden moved to- further amend by srr.kiur, out tho kial paragraph of tho reso? lution, but Alderman Geddings objected. Al? derman Wbilden withdrew the motion. Alderman Moore concurred in the distinction previously taken between protest and contest, but thought that Council had jurisdiction in the matter. He was doubtful, however, as to the effect of the provision of the act requu'ing the officers elect to bo inducted into office on tho Monday after thc election. Mayor Clark explained that there could bc no officers eleel until after the clcclkn had been declared, and that it was for tho purpose of determining how a declaration wa3 to be ar? rived ac thaf Conucil was now in session. Alderman Geddings insisted u;ion his opln ion that there could be no proper sui jeci of ? protest until tho election had been declared. Max or Clark read from tho protest, to show that it was against thc illegal conduct ol' an election, about tho occurrence of which lhere was no dispute. Alderman Whildci said that the protest was not against any man or set of men, but against tho validity of thc election. Alderman McKinlay (colored) thought thc election must b? declared before a protest could bc made. Alderman Vail coincided in the same view, Further desultory discussion took place, after which the question was put. But, befuto putting thc question, Mavor Clark declared his opinion to bc that tho only part of thc act nec?s eary for Council to consider was the followinj clause : The Managers of Elections shall decide con losto . cases, su-jcat to the uliiniV.e decuio.i of tho Boards of Aldermen or Wardens, when organized, except ?hen tue eleel iou of a ma? jority of the person? v. Lcd for aro contestad, or the managers charged with illegal conduct, in which case tho returns, together with the ballots, shall be cxamiucd and the case inves? tigated by the acting Bo trd of Aldermen, who shall declare tho election, and their decision shall to bindiug upon ail partios. Tho question being put, thc resolution of Alderman Geddings as amended by Alderman -Whiideu was passed, only Aldermen Wall and McKinlay voling in tho nccativc. Tho resolu? tion as passed reads as follows : Whereas, Tho General Assembly of this State, by an act, constituted the Mayors attd Councils of the several municipalities respec? tively iu this State umpires to examino and de? claro tho results of popular elections in certain exigences therein set forth, and such exigency having arisen it: the roc'-nt Municipal election of this city, in which it is contended that illegal courses have been practiced, which have con? tributed to an erroneous result, and that a pro? test against such an election being uttered and declar ed final, being numerously aud respect? ably signed, has been presented to the Mayor for his action and that of the Com.eil; it is therefore Resolved, That it is the duty of his Honor the Mayor and Couijfd to appoint au carly day to vorify the ballo?js in thc various wards, as legally required, to talco under oath evi? dences of fraud and other illegal acts said to havo been practiced in tho recent Municipal elections, and in all ncodful ways to conform to tho Act of Assembly, as an indispensable preliminary to au official enunciation of tho result of said election. And that tho place ap? pointed by this Council to hear tho evidence in tho matter of tho protest of tho recent elec? tion be the City Court room, and tho hour 12 M., Saturday, ?'ovember 14, and be continued from day today until completed, Sundays ex? cepted. On motion of Alderman Olney, tho Mayor was authorized to appointa committee of three to draft rules for tho government of Council during the examination, tho rules lo bc re? ported to Council and subject to their action. The Mayor appointed tho following Commit? tee : Aldermen Olney, Howard aud Geddings. Council then adjourned. RILEY IS HIMSELF AGAIN_Since tho attack of the colored Radicals on Stophney Riley he hasbecomo quito a popular member of the community, and has gained a host of white friends, who aro determined that ho shall not suffer for his adherence to tho princi? pios of right and juslico. On last Thursday 6omo gontldmei; waitod on Mayor Clark and requested him to protect Riley, as his life had been threatened by the negroes. They also assured the Mayor that if tho civil authorities did not afford him the requisito protection the citizens would seo that ho was not injured, but would hold the Mayor accountable for auy riot th it might follow. Mayor Clurk promised to do all in his Dowor to preserve peace, and, in order to show to the rioters that Riley was un? der the aegis of tho law, he omployed his car nago to drivo him through tho city. Tho turnout attracted considerable attention yes? terday, aud Riley was the observed of all ob? servers, and recoived tho congratulations of numerous friends, who assured him that he would not bo forgotton. BALTIMORE TO CHARLESTON IN FORTY-EIGHT HOCRS.-Thc swift steamship "Carroll," in charge of her popular commander, Captain Hudgins, arrived hero early yesterday morn? ing, making the run from wharf to wharf in forty-eight hours, which is tho quickest voy aso yet made.
