Tho following letter was received yoaterday by Mayor Clark from tuc Hon. A. G. Mackey, the Collector of the Port of < :bar:eston : CHARLESTON, April ll, 1869. Hon. G. W. Clark: DEAR S-IR-AU urticle apprats in the "DAILY NEWS" over he siena ure of "A Citizen." As newspat cr conti overs ie- are bhterlv repugnant to my habits, I should have tukeu > o lotiro ot ibis article, w.-re it not Ulai the third paragraph evident? ly refers to m<- as "a hich government otB lal." lt ls due to truth as well is to the perstnalro'a tiODs that have always i lin-ed between us,-that I should say tbat the statements contened tn that thi d paragraph huv-- been mad- without ? osent or ki.owb d^e, and that they aro not in ?... ?.dance with tacts. Complaint-' wore, st ie truo made on ono occasion by some of thepsUents tbat thoquautit> ot food had been diminished by lie ]. ns.ci., u. nut alter nn inves? tira non i was satisfied that th's arose from a mi un d-rstanding, and the who e busiuoss waa satisfacto? rily arranged by the corree, lon ot the evil, fut with all of this you bad nothimr to do, uor was there any reflation on your official character. There is no foundation 1er any ot tho other Btatem n?- mad" la that third paragraph. I sm, :ru y and resp ctluily yours, A. G. MAOKXY. The third paragraph referred to in the lorepolng letter reaiis as follows : "The 6bi| misters at this port r ported to ablgh government official, that the f. od issued to the patten ? at wur Marino Hospital was inferior and unwholesome. Au investigation was marie, and the flour, meal and m tat were found to be utterly unmerchantable and unsound. Tt was shown by the physician of tho Marloo Hospital, th it these articles wero purohascd from the Acting Mayor, the city, of course, pajing the highest prices tor them." [ADVERTISEMBNT] "Public I')under. " TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. "A Citizen" publishes in your paporof yos terday a long string of what he calls "facts" in re? gard to Mr. Gcorgo w. Clark, Acting Mayor of Charleston ; and, although I have no parUcular love for Mayor Clark, I do not liki to seo stubbed in the back a man who, whether he kuowsit ornot,is fight? ing the battle of law and order in r< fuang to give up his Eeat to Pilhb ry until that p-rson is declared by the piopcr tribunal to have been duly elocted. Now, what are tho "faois" which "A Citizen" pa? rades with so mue a appin nt pride? I am not fa? miliar with ibo oi mistic economy or the city gov? ernment, butt think that I can very quickly dispose of most oh them. First. ML; or 'lark is said to ne ?.the purveyor tor all the city institutions." This, as I mn informed, is untrue. Major Clark is uot purveyor for the Alms Bouse, nor is he pm ve vor for the Orphan Bouso, which institutions do rortd'ly consume somo moil, flour, h.eon and ?alt. His firm, G. W. Clark ts. Co., ?o supply thc hospitals with grocorios, but nothing u'se. Semd. It ls cb.are.ca thai thc articles supplied by Mayor < lark aro ot tho most in1 criar quality, and that tho flour, moi/ and meal issued to tho patients at 'ho Marino Uoapii il wero found to be utterly unsourd. This may bo true. I do not know whether it is or not; but, if lt is, then the fault, as I am Iniorrucd,. hes with tho offi ?als in chartre cf the hospital, wh iso duty it u to seo whether tho food is wholesome, and to n j >ct what is not fit for use. Third. It is charged that the Mayor "audits hi? own accounts, and, as Ma.or, draws his checks upon ibo city treasury to pay thom. ' This brings me to ihe root of tho wh lo question, which is whether'tho ctyls paying loo much for what it buys, and whothcr the persons who sell to the city are en? abled by their official position ?/> f-pr?v<? their own accounts and pay themselves tue money. All accounts against the city aro submitted to and examined by the Commlttoa on Accounts, whiob committee approves the acoouo elf they are found to be correct. Th? accounts ara then retorted to Coun:il.and if approved by that body arcpa'd by the Treasurer. It lstbo Committee ou Accounts which determines whether too much is paid to - spikes and whiskoy, or a drzen ancient eggs ; and I acree with "A Citizen" that it would be n violation of public ' decency for tho Mayor to bo tho whole of that com? mittee. But he is not the whole of the committee, nor the half of it. nor oven the chairman ot it. 1 ho committee is compose! of three members : Alder? man H. B. Olney, chah man, Aide: min W. G, W bil? den and Mayor Clark. Mr. Olnoy ai d Mr. Whildtn, two of our own Citizen?, determine what shall be paid and what shall cot. Mayor Clark has but ono vole in three. This, to my mind, disposes of tho whole charge. I sm willing to trugt mvp to, erty in the banda of Aldermen O.ney arfd Wnildoti, and I believe that ninety-nine of every hundred taxpayers in the city aro willing to do tho same. As to what **A Ci lz .n" says about the Arting Al? dermen ai pplj lng thc city with lumber and limo, and bric'.,, I reply that the Aldermen havo tho right to sell material to thu city that I h; ve. rr "A Citi? zen" has. They do not lose their rights-as mer? chants because they are Aldermen. 1 hey have the perfect right to fell ?hat they please to ttie city, if they do not charge more iban tho mu kel price, and thc Committee on Accounts will seo to that. I havo said all that au outsider eau Btv about thia matter, and there let it drop. I may rc oai'k. how? ever, that, whatever thc politics of Mayor <'lark, he ls undoubtedly the defocdor af the rights, privilogce and immunities of the ol i?teas of c harleston with? out regard to party. Every kind of pressure bas been used to make him rcccdo from his pieltion, and, while he stands Arm iu bis dotorminalion to jot the law decide both his o ise and ours, newspaper gossip and anonymous accusations will only tend to di feat the ohjoct we all havo in view by weakening tho Arting Mayor and Aldermen and strengthening thoPilsbury party.
