jjjj A CHARLESTON INVENTION_Messrs. L. A.
and W. J. Duval, at the house of J. B. Duval*
Son, have succeeded in inveuting a cooking
stove, whioh, from all that we can see and
hear, will be a great hoon to housekeepers. It
may be used with gas or kerosene, and is eo
arranged that the heat is evenly distributed
over ovorj part ot ?ko Lct^U oarfooo, whiuU
will remove the danger of burning, which
housewives so dread. This invention has been
patented, and by experienced judges, North
and South, is said to be the only perfect oven
in use. The stoves are for sale at the store of
.J. B, Duval & Son, the Charleston agentB,
where they may he seen, and whero their pecu?
liarities and advantages will be explained.
LATE NEWS FROM CUBA.-The following ex?
tracts from a commercial letter, just received
in this oity, from St. Jago de Cuba, by one of
.our leading mei cirants, will be found interest?
ing :
With the reinforcements of troops now ar?
riving, we look on the insurrecion as nearly at
an end, but its effects will be felt for some
time in this pa t of Cuba. Sugars come down
freely, and planters have had to accept $3j for
fair to good refining, in consequence of the
new export duty, siyon sugar in casks, 20c
Jer quintal and $1 25 per hhd.. and in boxes
1 87x per package. Tonnage is in demand for
United States, and we quote last charters 55
and 60o, currency.
Our planters continue firm for sugars,
based upon the calculation that they will not
make half a crop, as also the good demand for
cargoes afloat, m the Antilles, for the English
market. Touching our political situation we
would add that the large column of government
troops that are operating in ail directions are
re-establishing order. We trust to see a better
condition -of affairs very soon.
REPORTERS' CRUMBS.-?-The County Obmmie
aioners invite proposals for building a bridge
across Church Creek, whioh separates John's
from Wadmalaw Island.
Mr. Woodruff, who represented the Phila?
delphia Fire Department here in the great

co6 engine house taken as presents for the Pio?

An excellent imitation of the water lily, done
in iron by B. Burkett, a Charleston mecbsnio,
can be soon at Cameron St Barkley's.
. The Markot Commissioners say that the pub?
lic markets are sadly in need of repair, and
hope that Council will enable them to have
the necessary work done.

Tbere was a spcoial meeting of Counoil last
evening at eight o'clock.
Prosent- The Mayor; Aldermen Goddings,
Cunningham, Collins, Green, T. J. Mackey,
Barrow, E. W. M. Mackey, Potter, and McK n
lay, Holloway, Small, Howard, Thome, E. P.
Wall, L. F. Wall, Brown and Hampton, col?
ored.
The Mayor said boforo prof oding to busi?
ness h e would call the attention of visitorstQ
an ordinance requiring them to respect the
hall and not spit upon tho carpet or deface the
building.
The Mayor said tbero were sundry accounts in
the hands of the clerk which should be referred
to committees.
Alderman Wall said tho meeting was a spc?
oial ono, to bear the report of the Committee
on Vacant Offices.
Alderman McKinlay read tho 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 Council, directing said commitine
to inquire abd. report, without delay, as to
what, if any, city offices are vacant, the legal
tenure by wbioh city officers are bold, and the
power aud 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 tho shortness of the time allowed thom
would permit, and herein present the result .
ol'tho conclusion to whioh they bave come:
First. That there is but ono vacancy, viz:
that of City Attorney, the omeo being made
vacant by the resignation, on the 7th instant, ,
of the late incumbent, Hon. W. D. Porter.
Second. The legal tenure by which the oily
offices are held are by various ordinances pass?
ed by the City Counoil from time to time, creat?
ing these offices and electing the officers to fill
them in pursuance of the provisions thereby
provided.
Third. As to the power and authority of
Counoil 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 time that the annual
election for officers should takelplace, provides
that those elected should hold their offices tor
one year, "unless previously removed by a vote
of Counoil." Section sixteen of an ordinance
ratified October 10, 1826, reads thus:
"From and after the passing of this ordinance
all and Overy city officer elected by the City
Council of Charleston sball be and is hereby
declared to be subject at any time to be re?
moved from office by the vote of seven or more
members of Counoi1, for such causes as ti them
shall seem sufficient, after a lull hearing of
the case." ;
Also, by an ordinance ratified October 19th,
1850. the 21st section of whioh reads thus:
"From aud after the passing of this ordi?
nance all and every city officer elected by the
City Council of Charleston shall be and is here?
by declared to be subject at any timo to bo re?
moved from offiCo by tho votes of niue or moro
members of this Counoil, for such- causes as
to them shall seem sufficient, after a full bear?
ing of the case."
The foregoing quotations from the city ordi?
nances, corroborative of eaoh otber, consti?
tute ample evidence that the City Council,
irom an early period of its ? incorporation up?
wards, by legal enactments, reserved io itself
the right to vacate arv or all of the offices
created by it, ad libitum. Tueoommitte, there?
fore, express the op.uion, based upou the fore
goiog sections of ordinances cited, that the
City Counoil possess tho light and power to
remove incumbents from office when they may
deem it meet to do so. W. J. MCKINLAY.
E. PT WALL.
Alderman Barrow offered a resolution, which
was seconded, that the eleventh rule of Coun?
cil be rescinded.
Alderman Geddings said that the eleventh
rule referred to steam engines, and he conld
not see the object of tho resolution.
Alderman T. J. Mackey said the gentleman
meant? the twelfth rule
The Mayor said that under Bale nineteen, a
rule could not be rescinded by ' less than a
three-fourths vote.
Collins. I se loud the resolution. [Laughter.]
Alderman T. J. Mackey. If a majority of
Counoil decide to rescind the rules, tney can
do lt Dy every principle of parliamentary law.
The Mayor decided that the resolution could
not be passed by less than a throe-fourths
vote.
Alderman T. J. Mackey. I shall bo 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 said he was about to
rise and second the resolution.
[The rule which it was desired to rescind
requires that the Mayor sball appoint the
Standing Committees.- REP.]
.The Mayor said that the chair had ruled that
the resolution could not be adopte 1 in the face
of Bule 19.
Alderman T. J. Mackey asked if a majority
had not adopted the rule.
Alderman Collins said a majority had adopt?
ed the rule, but no change in it could .be made
except in regular foi m. This change, he said,
was only sought by interested parties who want
to rule, and he hoped to God they would not
succeed.
Alderman Small seconded the motion of Al?
derman Mackey, to appeal from the decision
of tho chan-.
The Mayor said Counoil had adopted the old
rales, and could not rescind them in.opposi?
tion to Bole 19.
Alderman Collins asked if the gentleman
(Alderman T. J. Mackey) was Mayor, or Mr.
Pillsbury.
Alderman T. J. Mackey said in due time he
would notice the insolence of tbe Alderman.
Alderman Cunningham requested the clerk
to read the proceedings of the last Counoil, to
seo if they were permanently adopted or not.
The clerk read the rules. ,
Alderm in McKinlay said he had offered the
resolution that the rules of tbe old board
should be adopted, and said they were perma?
nently adopted.
Alderman Collins. Under such an under?
standing I voted for them.
Alderman ?. W. M. Mackey said tbe gentle?
men might bo mistaken. He did not think
they were permanently adopted.
Alderman L. F. Wall was sure that there
was no such word as "permanent" thore.
Alderman T. J. Mackey insisted On his ap?
peal, which he said bad been seconded.
Tho Mayor said the appeal must he over.
Aidcrma . Barrow called the question,; and
the appeal from the d?cision was put, and the
Mayor was not sustained.
Alderman Collins said he hoped the Msyor
wooli not yield until, he bad consulted legal
authority.
Alderman T. J. Mackey said if he could'not
decide, the question would bo bow far bis
opinion would gc. He said he held in hie hand
a resolution in the interest of good govern?
ment against corruption, and that he 'would
discharge his .luty^with all due respect to the
presiding officer. Mo read tho resolution :
llemloed. That the appointments ot Stand?
ing Committees announced by (he Mayor on
the 11th instant be. and the Same are hereby,
annulled, and that Counoil do now proceed io
elect said committees.
Aide.man T. J. Mackey said that Alderman
Potter had been chairman of 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 conduct waa
kn outrage upon decency and good order."
Alderman Cunningham, very ranch excited
and rising, There, ie. no decency in you. I
understand you, sir !
It seemed to be th a intention of Alderman
! Cunningham to strike Alderman Mackey, bat
i he was held back by tho crowd.
I Alderman T. J. Mackey again nrged histfeso

porfoim and ttaid ho would net in good faith.

Alderman Wall Baid tho Alderman nppearod
to ba personal.
Xldcrman Mackey. Personalities aro ver
damaging in thia case.
Alderman Codins. I move that tho gen He
man io out of order.
Alderman Mackey then offered Iho following
ordinance, which waa road by tho dork:
lc it ordained by tho Mayor and Aldermen
of Charleston in City Gounoi la ssotn bled, That
thin Council do procoed on next Tuesday even?
ing, the 18tli instant, at eight o'clock, to tho

officers wboeo oleotion nuy legally come before
them.
SEO 2. All ordinances and parts of ordi?
nances inooiiBistent with this ordinance bo,
and the samo aro hereby, repealed.
The Mayor said ho was surprised at the
positions takon against him, the Mayor of
Charleston.
Alderman Geddings in reply to the re?
marks mado by Alderman Mackey, in ofiV . g
the otdinanco, said : The Alderman is out of
order. He is dohrcriag 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'd talking about.
Alderman Mackey. I know that my shots
hit the mark by the way the target shakes.
Before the Council adjourns I will name the
day when I wm present articles of impeach -
mont against Mayor Pillsbury, and so get rid
of the scoundrels who have been blooding us
so long.
Alderman Cunningham moved an adjourn?
ment. . Yeas 8, nays 10..
Alderman Collins. I have been called Pills?
bury's fugleman. I intend to be so. I hold
you (looking at the Mayor) to be as honest a
man as there is in Charleston. Certain powers
are vested iu you. if the Alderman (Mackey)
does not know this, he is no lawyer. I do not
intend to be personal. If I do, worse than the
Mosaic law will bo enacted.
Alderman Barrow said the Clerk had report?
ed the deoision of the question.
Alderman Collins. I never knew the Clerk
could d?cide it.
The Mayor. I did not say,-, "lt is a vote."
Alderman Harrow. I beard it so. The
Mayor's oonduct is an open and shut game,
Alderman E. W. M. Mackey asked whether
tho resolution was ruled out of order.
The Mayor. I rule the last question out ol
order.
Alderman E. W. M. Mackey. I appeal from
that decision.
The Mayor ?sked - for time to obtain legal
advice.
Alderman Bari ow said if legal advice wac
called in it would cost $1500, and take Coiiuci
six months to get it.
A point of order was raised that the appea
from tho decision ol'the chair was ponding

views if he had to Bit there till morning;

Alderman Collins. An election requires tel

seleoiion, and not be gujdod hy a clique win

Alderman Geddings said the Becorder cou!?

Aldermau T. J. Mackey moved that the Hon
C. C. Bowen be selected.
Alderman L. F. Wall seconded the motion
Bte had great confidence in Mr: Bowen's wis
dom, and respect for his veracity.
Aldorm an Collins. opposed. Bowen.. Ha aau
mat x. J. Mackey had said that he (Collins
was not a Republican.
Alderman T. J. Mackey. I said more thai
that. I said yon were a public thief.
Alderman Collins (to Mackey.) You ar? t
Texas highwayman and a reoegade South Caro
liman.
Alderman T. J. Mackey arose, when Collin
roe 3 also, put his hand in his breast and sai
in an excited manner: "I am ready for yon
sir"!" :
Alderman E. W. M. Mackey moved to go o
with the appointment of a temporary City At
tomey, which was agreed to, and Mr. C. C
Bowen was appointed.
Alderman Greene said ho had tho kindee
feelings towards the Mayor, whom he woult
continue to support, but he would bear i
mind his duty to his constituents.
Alderman E. W. M. Maokey called for the s<
cond reading of the election ordinance. Aldei
man Collins objected.
At this stage, on motion of Alderman Poi
ter, Council adjourned.
The Chamber was crowded with white me
and negroes. They enjoyed the disgracefr.
scene amazingly, clapping their hands an
stamping their feet whenever anything spic
was sadd. No attempt WM made to keep th
crowd in order, and the rowdies in Comic
and out of it had everything ' their own wa}
One thing fe* certain. A band of wild Indian
and ring-tailed monkies could have behave
no worse than the "Honorable Board of Aldoi
men" of Charleston.

ing of the Oily Council of Augusta was hel
on Tffursday, for the purpose of coneiderin
the steps to be taken to complete the Maco

and the whole coat of completing at $600,001

referente to the charge that the City Cou nc
