Tbs above aaiaoanoement is doubtless from Ae pen of Mr. Beyer, tba indefatigable assist- j Mt editor of tbs Zeitong, who bas bat recent- j ry become ooo nee ted with that Journal THE ATTEMPTED MEETING OE THE VITT COUNCIL. In consequence of a tack of a quorum the regular moe I in fr of the City Council was not held laat night. Eight o clock ia the time appointed for the meetings, and at that boor Aldermen E. W. M. Mackey, T. J. Mackey, D. Barrow, J. F. Greene, Thorne, L. F. Wall, E. P. Wall and Hampton, the last four colored, were assem? bled around the board. The four colored men clustered together in the centre of the board, and were entertained in conversation by Aldermen E. W. M. Mackey. Alderman T. J. Mackey amused, himself hy writing on a large sheet of paper, what after? ward was ascertained. to be a ticket for city officers. This paper he passed baok and forth tobie white and colered friends, explaining td them where the joke lay, doing so until each and every one "saw" it. Thus the time passed. The fifteen minutes allowed by the ordinance to elapse before tbe meeting can expire by default, dragged elowly by, but the Mayor oame not. In fire minntes more ho did, however, and called the meeting to order. The olerk called the roll, and those shove mentioned, eight in number, answered. The Mayor. There being no quorum pres? ent, FD heir a motion to adjourn. Alderman Barrow. I move that the Board adjourn until Tuesday night next. The Mayor, i'll hear a motion to adjourn. E. P. Wall (colored.) I move we adjourn, subject to tbe call of the Mayor. Alderman Barrow. My motion was seconded, Tbe Mayor. I am not entertaining motions io adjourn to a fixed time. Alderman Greene. I seconded his (Bar? row's) motion. Alderman Barrow. I do not see how yon can entertain one motion to adjourn and not another. He then read a mle from Jefferson's Manual regardiog the adjournment of meetings to a given time, and claimed that the role ap. plied in this case. The Mayor. That mle only governs legisla? tive bodies, and not this Council. The only motion I can enteitain is one to adjourn. AB there is no motion to that effect I now adjourn Council. The Mayor then arose and waa leaving the chamber, when Alderman T. J. Mackey jumped to his seat and said, in a sarcastic tone: I regret that yon bare left the chair eo abruptly, as I have a ticket for city officers to present, made np from your known personal friends. This announcement occasioned a great deal of amusement, and a large namber of persons, who are known to bare "an eye to offica" and "hopes," gathered around bim to look over the ' paper which the Alderman freely displayed. Conspicuous among this crowd, was the nan? keen-colored office-hunter De Large, who voci? ferously requested a copy for the African Missionary. The Mayor, who had only turned to look at Alderman Mackey when he addressed bim, had, by thia time, left the chamber. Alderman Barrow. I move that Alderman L. F. Wall take the chair and adjourn the Board properly. Wall, colored, arising, and with an innatural dignity, said: I decline. Alderman Barrow. 1 mean Alderman E. P. WalL E. P. Wall, colored. I enjoy a good joke, bnt I will not be made a down of in snch a farce as is being enacted here. [Laughter.] Alderman T. J. Mackey. It is not necessary that any Alderman should take the chair. I move that the Council adjourn, to meet on Tuesday night next. He then put the motion, whioh waa carried. Council then adjourned. The ticket whioh Alderman Mackey wished to introduce is ss follows: For City Inspector-Captain Joseph H. Jenks, late Cashier Freedmen's Savings Bank. For City Attorney-Hon. D. T. Corbin, Uni? ted States Attorney. For City Treasurer-Hon. D.T. Corbin,State Senator. For City Registrar-Hon, D. T. Corbin, Lieu tonant-Governor. For Chief of Police-Hon. D. T.

The petition, which THK NXWS of Monday last mentioned as being in circulation among the frequenters of the courthouse aud other build? ings in the vicinity of Broad and Meeting streets, to get Council, to pave that section with a newly patented pavement, is we learn, being energetically poshed forward, the mov? ers claiming that the noise from passing vehi? cles interrupts the business of the courts, and that the sawdust whioh was laid down to dead? en the noise blows in then* own and everybody else's eye?. As we have said before, the city coffers are not in a condition to have this work done at present, and, besides, there are other streets that sadly need paving, and should re? ceive attention first. For instance, King-street, on whioh nearly all of the retail trade of the city is transacted. The judges, jurymen, law? yers and others will have to bear with the noise for awhile longer, and if the sawdust will persist in blowing into their eyes, they can have it removed altogether.

THE STATE CO?BT-IN THE GEN EBAL SES? SIONS-HON. B. B. CARPENTEE, PRESIDING. The case of the State vs. Gabriel Levy, indict? ment for murder was up for trial. The cir sumstanees, as developed by the evidence, are briefly these: On the 25th of September, 1868, the prisoner and deceased were at work upon the plantation of Dr. B irkcr on Cooper River, about fourteen miles from the city. A dispute occurred be? tween the prisoner and one Robin Steward, which was afterwards interfered in by the de? ceased. After daring the prisoner to come ont on the bank, the deceased assaulted him. The prisoner did not return the assault at first, but upon its being continued, picked np a paddle in an adjoining canoe and hit the deceased upon the head; that before being separated, the prisoner and deceased resumed the work, and that on the next day Richard Nesbitt died. After the examination of the testimony, John A. Moroso, Esq., opened for the defence. He contended that even if the death resulted from the blows as alleged, the circumstances of the case deprived it of its criminal nature, and made it a case of homicide se defendendo- that the prisoner inflicted the blow under the im? pression that he was about to receive great bodily barm, and only after having retreated. He demanded a verdict of acquittal for the prisoner. Attorney-General Chamberlain then address? ed the jury in reply. He contended that the right of self-defence was undenied, but that it should be only exercised in a reasonable man ner, and that the infliction of the blow was the promptings of malice, and that the jory were bound to convict of murder or manslaughter. G. H. Sass, Esq., closed the argument in be? half of the defence. He contended, first, that there was an absence of malice necessary to make it murder; second, that it was not in evi? dence that the death resulted from the blow, and that, even admitting that, under all the circumstances, it was a case of justifiable hom? icide. His Honor the Judge charged the jory that under the evidence they were bound to return a verdict of murder or manslaughter. The jory after an abience of some hours, returned a verdict of "Guilty of manslaughter.1 The State vs. Harriet Maxwell-Indictment for larceny; R. 8. Thann, Esq., for the defence. "Guilty."

At a regular meeting of tbe JE tn a Steam Fire Engine Company, held on tbs 14th inst., at their hall, the following preamble and resolu? tions were unanimously adopted : Again are wc called upon, through the mys? terious dispensations of Divine Providence, to mourn the removal from among us of another one of our members-JOHN M EH RT ENS, who, though but lately connected with us, yet by the modesty of his demeanor and tho deep in? terest which he took in the affairs of thia com? pany, won our regard and esteem, and whose absence will long be retained in our memory. Cut off in the prime of manhood and in the midst of usefulness, his loss ia the more deep? ly felt, and we have a striking exemplification of the tnth that "in the midst of life we are in death." Our deceased friend was possessed of many of the good qualities which should characterize the man-upright and strictly honest in all bis dealings with his fellows, prompt in the discharge of all the duties al? lotted to him, and ever ready to assist in cu? rving ont any project for the advancement of I the interests of this Company1 or tko good of I ita members.

Resolved, That a blank page in our Minute Book be inscribed to his memory. Resolved, That a copy nf this preamble and these resolutions be sent to the widow of the deceased, with our sincere sympathy of condo? lence in h?r ead bereavement.
