THE ATTEMPTED MEETING? OE THE
CITY COUNCIL.
In consequence- of ? faok of a quorum the
regular meeting of tho City Council was not
held last night.
Eight o dock ia the time appointed for the
meetings, and at that hour 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.
Tho four colored men clustered together in
the oentre of the board, and were entertained
in conversation by Aldermen E. W. M. Mackey.
Alderman T. J. Ma ikey amused himself by
writing on a large sheet of paper, what after?
ward was ascertained to be a ticket for city
officers. Thia paper he passed baok and forth
to bis white and colored friends, explaining to
them where tho joke lay, doing so until eaoh
and every one "saw" it.
Thus the time passed. The fifteen minutes
allowed by the ordinance to elapse before tb?
meeting can expire by default, dragged slowly
by, but the Mayor came not. In five minutes
more he did, however, and cailed the meeting
to order.
The derk called the roll, and those above
mentioned, eight in number, answered.
The Mayor. There being no quorum pres?
ent, I'll hear 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.
The Mayor. I am not entertaining motions
to 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 role from Jefferson's
Manual regarding the adjournment of meetings
to a given irme, and claimed that the rule ap.
plied in this case.
The Mayor. That rule only governs legisla?
tive bodies, and not this Council. The only
motion I can entextain is one to adjourn. As
there is no motion to that effect I now adjourn
Council.
The Mayor then arose and was leaving the
chamber, when Alderman T. J. Mackey jumped
to his seat and said, in s sarcastic tone: I regret
that you have left the chair eo abruptly, as I
have a tioket for city officers to present, made
up from your known personal friends.
This announcement occasioned a great deal
of amusement, and a large number of persons,
who are known to have "an eye to offios" and
"hopos," gathered ?round bim to look over the
paper which the Alderman freely displayed.
Conspicuous among this crowd, was the nan?
keen-colored office-hunter DeLarge, who voci?
ferously requested a copy for the African
Missionary.
The Mayor, who had only turned to look at
Alderman Mackey when he addressed him,
had, by this time, lett 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 unnatural
dignity, said: I'decline.
Alderman Barrow. 1 mean Alderman E. P.
Wall.
E. P. Wall, colored. I enjoy a good joke, bat
I will not be made a clown of in such a farce as
ls being enacted here. [Laughter. ]
Alderman T. J. Mackey. It is not neoebsary
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 was carried.
Council then adjourned.
- The ticket which Alderman Mackey wished
to i ntroduco is as 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

THAT PAVEMENT ENTIBELY UHITECESSABT.
The petition, which THU MEWS 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 pushed forward, the mov?
ers claiming that the noise from passing vehi?
cles interrupts tho business of tho courts, and
that the sawdust whioh was laid down tb dead?
en the noise blows in their own and everybody
else's eyes. As we have said before, the city
coffers are nbt 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. Fdr instance, King-street,
on which hearty all of the retail trade of the
city is transacted. 1 The judges,'jurymen, law?
yers and others will have to bear with the
noise for awhile longer, snd if the sawdust, will
persist in blowing into their eyes, they cara
have it removed altogether.

THU STATE COUBT-IN THE GENERAL SES?
SIONS-HON. R. B. CARPENTER, I'QESIDINO.
The case of the State vs. Gabriel Levy, indict?
ment for murder, was up for trial. The cir
sumstances, as developed by the evidence, are
briefly these:
Ou the 25th of September, 1868, the prisoner
and deceased were at work upon the plantation
of Dr. 13 u kcr on Cooper River, about fourteen
miles from the city. A dispute "occurred be?
tween the prisoner and ono Robin Steward,
which was afterwards interfered in by the de?
ceased. After daring the prisoner to oome out
on the bank, the deceased assaulted him. The
prisoner did not return the assault at first, but
upon its being continued, picked up 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 oontended^hat even if the death resulted
from the blows ae alleged, the circumstances of
the case deprived it of its oriminal nature, and
made it a case of hortic ?de se def endeudo-that
the prisoner inflicted the blow under the im?
pression that he was about to receive great
bodily harm, 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 tho blow was the
promptings of malice, and that the jury 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 ail the
circumstances, it was a case of justifiable hom?
icide.
His Honor the Judge charged the jury that
under the -evidence they were bound to rotura
a verdict of murder or manslaughter.
The jory after an absence of some hours,
returned a verd'ot of "Guilty of manslaughter."
The State vs. Harriet Maxwell-Indictment
for larceny; E. S. Thariu, Esq., for the defence.
"Guilty."
The State vs. Primus Vine-Larceny under
the Statute. R. S. Tharin, Esq., for the defence.
The Court was occupied in this case up to
the hour of adjournment.
The Grand Jury made the following returns :
The State vs. P Eddly-Larceny of notes. No
bill."
