who worked at tho baker} of C. H. Geiifuss, State

strument gavo a wound in the i ye. which woll nigh
destroyed it. The beaten man fled as eoon as he

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.
