There was a special meeting- of Council last evening: at eight o'clock. ist*"" Present-The Mayor; Aldermen Geddings, Cunningham, Collins, Green, T. J. Mackey, Barrow, E. W. M. Mackey, Potter, and McK n lay, Holloway, Snial], Howard, Thorne, ?. P. Wall, L. F. Wall, Brown and Hampton, col? ored. The Mayor said before proceeding to bUBi ? ness b e would call the attention of visitors to an ordinance requiring: them to respect the hall and not spit upon the carpet or deface the building. The Mayor said there were sundry accounts in the hands of t ho clerk which should be referred to committees. Alderman V>'all said the meeting was a spe? cial one, to he ir the report of the Committee on Vacant Offices. Alderman McKinlay read the report as fol? lows, and it was received as information: The Committee on Vacant Offices, to whom was referred a- resolution adopted at the last meeting of Connell, directing said c 3 m mittle to inquire and report, without delay, as to ?hat, if any, city offices are vacant, the legal ??ere by which city officers are held, and the power and authority of Council to remove the incumbents of the same, beg leave to report, that they have had the subject matter em? braced in the resolution under consideration, and gave it that investigation and delibera? tion the shortness of the time '' allowed the OJ r would permit, and herein present the result Of the conclusion to which they bave come: First. That there is but one vacancy, viz: that of City Attorney, the office being made vacant by the resignation, on the 7th instant, bf the late incumbent, Hon. W. D. Porter. Second. The legal tenure by which the city offices are held are by various ordinances pass? ed by the City Cou o eil from time to time, creat? ing these offices and electing tue officers to fill them in purs nance of the provisions thereby provided. Third. Aa to the power and authority of Council to remove incumbents, the committee would quote certain sections of the city ordi? nances bearing upon the subject. An ordinance of the City Council ratified Oc? tober 8,1805- defining the t: me that the annual . ejection tor officers should take!place, provides that those elected abould bold their offices for one year, "unless previously removed by a vote of Council." Section Bi rt* cn of au ordinance ratified October 10,1826, roads thus: "From and after the passing of thu? ordinance all and every city officer elected by the City Council of Charleston shall be and is hereby dec hu ed to be subject at any time, to be re? moved from office by the vote of ee ven or more members of Council, for such causes as ti them shall seem sufficient, after a roll hearing af the case. " ' Also, by an ordinance ratified October 19th, 1850. the 21st section of which reads thus: . "From and after the passing of this ordi? nance all and every city officer elected by the City Council of Ch ar leaton shall be and is here? by declared to be subject at any time to be re? moved from office by the votes ot niue or more members of tins Council, for euch causes as to them snail eeem sufficient, after a full hear? ing of the case." I he foregoing quotations from tie city ordi? nances, . corroborative of each other, consti? tute ample evidence that the City Council, trout an early period of its incorporation up? wards, by legal enactments, reserved to itself, th? right to vacate any or alt of the offices created by it, ad libitum. Theoommitte, there? fore, express the op.mon, based upon the fore S'og sections of ordinances cited, that the y Council possess the right and power to remove incumbents from offioe when tney may deem iff meet to do so. W. J. MCKUCLAI. E. P. WAU? Alderman Barrow offered a resolution, which waa seconded, that the eleventh rule of Coun? cil be rescind 2d. Alderman Geddings said that the eleventh rule referred to steam engines, and he could not see the ohjeot of the resolution. Aides man T. J, Maokey said the gentleman meant the twelfth rule The Mayor said that under Bole nineteen, a mle could not be rescinded by less than a three-fourths vote. Collins. Ise tond the resolution. [Laughter.] Alderman T. J. Mackey. If a majority of Council decide to rescind the rules, they can do it by every principle of parliamentary law. The Mayor decided that the resolution could not be passed by less than a three-fourths vote. . Alderman T. J. Maokey. I shall be compelled to appeal from the decision of the chair. ' Alderman Collins rose to object to Alderman Mackey prompting Aldermen when to vote and when to second measures. Alderman Hampton Bald he was about to rise and second the resolution.' [The rule which it was desired to rescind requires that the Mayor abail appoint the Standing Committees.-BOP.] The Mayor said that tue chair had ruled that the resolution could not be adopte! in the face of Bule 19. Alderman T. J. Mackey asked if a majority had not adopted the rule, -.j Alderman Collina said a majority had adopt? ed the rule, but no change ra it could be made exoept in regular foim. This change, he said, iras only sought by interested parties who want to rule., and lie hoped to God they would not mossed. ! Alderman Small seconded the motion of Al? iena an Mackey, to appeal from the decision t>f the chair. The Mayor said Council had adopted the old rules, and could not rescind thom in opposi? tion to Bole 19. Alderman Collina asked if the gentleman (Alderman T. J. Maokey) was Mayor, or Mr. Pills bury. Alderman T. J. Mackey said in due time he would not ice (he insolence of the Alderman. Alderman Cunningham requested the clerk bo read the proceedings of the las: Council, to see if they were permanently adopted or not. The clerk read the ruleB. Alderman McKinlay said be had offered the resolution that the rules of the old board should be adopted, and said they were perma? nently adopted. Alderman Collins. Under such an under? standing I voted for them. Alderman E. W. M. Maokey said tbe gentle? men might be mistaken. He did not think ' ;hey were permanently adopted. Alderman, L. F. Wall was sure that there ,vas no such word as "permanent" there. Alderman T. J. Mackey insisted on his ap- 1 seal, which be said bad been seconded. Tue Mayor said the appeal must be over. 1 Alderma Barrow called the question, and 1 the appeal from the decision was put, and tho Mayor waa not sustained. 1 Alderman Collins said he hoped the Mayor would not yield until ho had consulted legal authority. Alderman T. J. Mackey said if ho could not decide, the question would be how far bia opinion would go. He said h9 held in his hand % resolution in the interest of good govern? ment against corruption, and that he would lischarge his <1uty with all due respect to the presiding officer. He read the resolution : liesolce-l, That the appointments of Stand? ing Committees announced by the Mayor on tho 11th instant be. and the same are hereby, annulled, and that Council do now proceed to fleet said committees. Aide.man T. J. Mackey said that Alderman Potter had been chairman ot the old Committee on Streets, and that it had been characterized by outrageous extravagance. Aldermen Cunningham and Holloway were talking, and Alderman T. J. Mackey "hoped the gentlemen would stop. Their coi.duct was an outraa> upon decency and good order. " Alderman Cunningham,' very much excited and rising. There is no decency in you. I understand yen, sir 1 , It seemed to be th 3 intention of Alderman Cunningham to strike Alderman Mackey, but 1 he was held back by the crowd. Alderman T. J. Mackey again urged his reso Hon. He said that Council bad great duties to perform, and said be would act in good faith. He said the Committee on Streets needed re? trenchment. Alderman Wall said the Alderman appeared to be personal. Alderman Mackey. Personalities are ver damaging in this case. Alderman Collins. I move that the gentle? man is oat of order. Alderman Mackey then offered the following ordinance, which was read by the clerk: Le it ordained by the Mayor and Aldermen of Charleston in City Council assembled, That this Council do proceed on next Tuesday even? ing, the 18tb instant, at eight o'clock, to tbe election of a City Attorney and such other city officers whose election may legally como beforo them. SEC. 2. All ordinances and parts of ordi? nances inconsistent with this ordinance be, and the same are hereby, repealed. The Mayor said he was surprised at the positions taken against him, the Mayor of Charleston. Alderman Geddings in reply to the re? marks made by Alderman Mackey, in nfiV'. g the ordinance, said : The Alderman is ont of order. He is delivering lectures on various subjects. He had better advertise to deliver a course of lectures on total depravity and orig? inal sin. Alderman Potter. He (Mackey) dont know what he's talking about. Alderman Mackey. I know that my shots hit the mark by the way the targe? shakes. Before the-Council adjourns I will name the day when I will present articles of impeach - ment against Mayor Pillsbury, and so get rid of the scoundrels who have been bleeding us so long. Alderman Cunningham moved an adjourn? ment. Teas 8, nays 10. Alderman Colline. I have been called Pills? bury's fugleman, I intend to be so. f hold yon (looking at abe Mayor) to be as honest a man as there is in Charleston. Certain powers are vested in you. If the Alderman (Mackey) does not know than, he is no lawyer. I do not intend to he personal. If I do, worse than the Mosaic law will be enacted. Alderman Barrow said the Clerk had report? ed the decision of the question. Alderman Collins. I never knew the Clerk could decide it. The Mayor. I did not say, "lt is a vote." Alderman barrow. I beard it so. The Mayor's conduct is an open and shut game. - Alderman E. W. M. Mackey asked whether j the resolution was ruled out of order. The Mayor. I rule the last question out of order, , Alderman E. W. M. Mackey. I appeal from that decision. The Mayor tsked for time to obtain legal advice. Alderman Ban ow said if legal advice was called in it would cost $1500, and take Council six months to get it. A point of order was raised that the appeal from tho decision of tho chair was penning, wh en the Ma; or said he would not chango his views if he had to ait there till morning. Alderman Potter. A-men! Alderman Collins (clapping.) Good 111 Alderman E. W. M. Mackey moved that Council elect a city attorney pro tem. Alderman Colline. An election requires ten days' notice. Ihe Mayor should make the selection, and not bo guided by a clique who want ill the offices and a Beat in Council be? sides. Alderman Geddings said the Recorder could be consulted. Alderman T. J. Mackey moved that the Hon. C. C. Bowen be selected. Alderman L. F. Wall seconded the motion. He had great confidence in Mr. Bowen's wis? dom, and respect for his veracity. Alderman Collins opposed Bowen. Ho said that T. J. Mackey had said that he (Colline) was not a Republican. Alderman T. J. Mackey. I said more than that. I said you were a public thief. Alderman Collins (to Mackey.) You are a Texas highwayman aud a reuegade South Caro? linian. Alderman T. J. Mackey arose, when Collins ros J also, put his hand io his breast and said m an excited manner: "I am ready for you, sir 1" Alderman E. W. M. Mackey moved to go on with the appointment of a temporary City At? torney, which was agreed to, and Mr. C. C. Bowen was appointed. Alderman G reo: ie said he had the kindest feelings towards the Mayor, whom he would continue to support, but he would bear in mind his duty to his constituents. Alderman E. W. M. Mackey called for the se? cond reading of the election ordinance. Alder? man Collins objoctc-d. At this stage, on motion of Alderman Pot? ter, Council adjourned. The Chamber was crowded with white men and negroes. They enjoyed the disgraceful scene amazingly, clapping their bands and stamping their feet whenever anything spicy was said. No attempt was made to keep the crowd io order, and the rowdies in Council and out ot it bad everything their own way. One thing is certain. A bind of wild Indians and ring-tailed mon kies* could have behaved no worse than the "Honorable Board of Alder? men" of Charleston. IMPORTANT RAJLBOAD MOVEMENT.-A meet? ing of tbe City Council of Aueusta was held on Thursday, for the purpose of considering ? tho steps to be taken to complete the Macon and Augusta Railroad. Judge King, of the Georgia Railroad being present, urged the necessity of prompt action. He said tho road was making nothing now, having, no emu cc- ] tiou; but that when completed to Macon it would become profitable. He estimated tbe ? cost of grading at $300,000, including bridges, aud the whole eos* of completing at $000,000. Alderman Gardner tackled Judge King with roteren ;e to the charge that the City Council was responsible for the mismanagement of ibo Macon Road, and gave Jndgo King what tho 1 Constitutionalist calls "a decidedly vigorous excoriation." A motion was adopted that tho 1 offer of Hull, Shorrnan & Co., to complete tho road, will not be accepted; ?ind a motion was adopted that Judge King bj no: ?fled that Coun? cil will approve tho issue ot $500,000 in bunds by tho Macon and Augusta R ulroad, to bc cn aorserr~bv the City Council cf Macon, tho Georgia Kaili oad, the City Council cf Augusta and tbe South Carolina Railroal. A communication was redd from H. P. Ham? mett, President of the Greenville Railroad, relativo to thc construction of a line ol road on the west side of Saluda River, to connect with tbe 8outh Carolina Railroad, setting lorth the advantages to result to Augusta, and asking aid from the City Council. R.ierred to the Railroad Committee. A Card, The oommittee who were in charge of tbe arragements'for the Volksfest, recently held at the Schuetzenplaiz, return thanks to the pub? lic for their liberal and hearty support. They feel that the success of tbe celebration was due more to the kindness of the public than to their own m?rite, and hopo that any omissions on their part will bc generously < overlooked. Tho number of gifts presented to the committee to be awarded as prizes was so great that it was impossible to dispose of > them all in that way during the Volksfest, and * some, consequently, still remain in the hands of the committee to be shot for at such time , and place as the Schuetzen Gesellschaft may ( hereafter direct.
