THE CUSTOM sorra E.
Mr. Claris Demands ene Orner of Collec?
tor or C ?tet?me-He tninfca He SHonld
Go Into O Alee at Ones Dr Mseltcy Dif?
fers with Htm-Ultimatum of Dr. Mae
ltejr-H canaries of the Old and New Cal
lector.
A? one o'clock yesterday. Mr. George W.
Clark called upon Dr. A. G. MAokeyat the Cus?
tomhouse, and presented a lot Un from the
President of tho United Btates, informing Dr.
Mackey that he had beeu suspended. He also
presented an order from tho Commissioner of
Customs directing Dr. M. to surrender his of
nco upon application from Mr. Clark, and re?
quiring Dr. M. to take from bim duplicate re?
ceipts of all public property in his charge.
Dr. Mackey said be was happy to be relieved
from all the responsibilities and anxieties of
the position, and though be might, in view of
the bad company Mr. Clark bad been keeping
lately, Lil is understood that Congressman
Bovren and Senator Sawyer are the bad oom
n&nv rafarrod ir?l fljapilifl *ha ?tltb0!?t*,'itv Of
the documents presented, he preferred to re?
cognize the validity of the communications,
and would comply without delay to the demand
made, AS it was necessary, however, before
complying to make out schedules of the public
property he had, in order that Mr. Clark might
receipt for the same, he would at once com?
mence to mike them out, and when they were
completed the office was ready for him.
Mr. Clark olaimed that as he had made his
application for office, be, therefore, was actu?
ally tho Collector, and in support of this view
he called the attention of Dr. M. to the tact
that the Commissioner of Customs, in his
commuuication, had addressed him as the
"lite Collector."
To this Dr. Mackey replied by showing a
letter from tho Commissioner, under date of
July 17th, in which he addressed him as "Col?
lector of the Port." This he declared was an
offset to the letter shown by Mr. Clark. He,
however,expressed his willingness to surren?
der the office then and there if Mr. Clark would
sign receipts in blank.
This Mr. Clark refused to do, whereupon Dr.
M.exproased bis intention to protect his bonds?
men and himself at all hazards, and told Mr.
Clark that he would give him his ultimatum
in writing, whioh he did, as follows:
Oraton or COLLECTOR or CUSTOMS, 1

HXR-I have the honor to acknowledge the

THE F I TIE IN KIRKLAND'S LAHE.-Chief En?
gineer Nathan has concluded his investigation
ot the origin of the fire in Kirkland's Lane. The
testimony showed that the house was inhabit?

was nothing more nor less than the lowest of
brothels; that on the night of the fire the
whole party were in a beastly state of intoxi?
cation, and that tho fire waa accidental, i Y

THE CITY AND THE STATE.-A correspondent
who lives in Bennetts villa, says : "Your paper
continues to increase in favor amongst us. Nor
can it be otherwise, when yon seem to have the
welfare of the country as well as the city at
heart." Certainly. THE NEWS is the represen?
tative of all South Carolina, our heart is in the
mountains as well as on the coast; and so will
it be while, THE NEWS, like the sun, shineB
for all. Price five cents.
. OUR NEW COLLECTOR.-A letter from Exeter,
?. H., on the 12tb of Joly, to the Boston Trav?
eller, statos that "Mr. Clark is there ona
visit to his relatives." The writer, after fur?
nishing some statements from the ex-Mayor's
annual report, ("kindly furnished by him,")
showing that he had greatly improved Charles?
ton during his term of ornoo, says: "In fact
Mr. Clark completely 'Yankeeizod' the city, and
it is a pity ti.at he oould not have been con?
tinued in the office a few years to finish the
work he had so well commenced. But this
was not to be." The writer then goes on to
show bow the c-?Hector was euchred out of
his position hythe "palpable frauds" of the elco*
tionheld last November, and adds: "Mr. Chtrk
is a native ol thia town, a graduate from Phil?
lips Exeter Academy, and will be remembered
by many of your readers as for several years a
member of the firm of Rtlph Smith & Co., of
Boston. He will return to Charleston, in a few
days to assume his duties as collector, a posi?
tion for whioh his attainments admirably
qualify him. Mr. C. went to Morris Island in
the latter part of 1863, and Was among the first
to outabheh himself in business in Charleston
after its occupation by the Umon troops."
BRUTAL ASSAULT BY A NKOBO POLICEMAN.
Yesterday morning a netno policeman named
Tom Butler was arraigned before Captain Hen?
dricks upon the charge of maltreating a white
man whom he had arrested. ?? .
lt appears from tho testimony given by Al?
derman Coffins, that Butler arrested a drunken
whiteman, and because he would not walk,
shook and cuffed him. and wheo be laid down
took him by the heels and jerked hint along
the ground, thereby severely bruising' his bead
and shoulders. ? white policeman told Butler
to desist from bis cruelty, and offered to aid
him in carrying the prisoner to the Guard?
house. Butler indignantly refused the prof?
fered assistance of Policeman Hogan, and told
hun if be interfered he would have htm ar?
rested. Alderman Collina was sailed and
cimo, and remonstrated with the negro, who
made some very insulting remarks in reply,
and said that if he bad his club wi h bim he
would make his prisoner walk. Alderman
Collins then bad the negro put under arrest,
but as soon as be was rv leased be walked ap
and do*n in front of the Alderman's house,
and mada threats against bim. . ."",
After bearing the evidence, which clearly es?
tablished the oharge, the Chief dismissed
Butler from the foroe. AI dc mon Collins thon
made an appeal for the negro, and tho chief
reinstated him, but fined him 110.

THE TROUBLE ON Enisro.-We learn from
gentlemen, in whom we have confidence, that
the arrest of Cyrus Heyward had nothing to
do With the recent trouble on Edisto. Cyrus
is a notoriously bad negro, and was arrested
for drawing a pistel on Mr. Berg, a planter,
who bad ordered Cyras off his place. The war?
rant Was served on Cyrus by Mr. Marsiella,
who is a Swede by birth, but has lived in
South Carolina since his boyhood. There is
no "Northern man'' in him. Cyrus resisted,
aureed Mr. Marstella, and waa shot by Mr.
MarsteUa in self-defence, as Cyrus' wife was
banding her husband a gun. Cyrus was not
tied like a calf, nor was ho in any way ill
treated. Cyrus was arrested on the 6th, and
was set at liberty by some negroes on the
night; before the troubles. As to the true
cause of these troubles, it may be said that
tho refusal of the negroes to make up the lost
day-th? 5th-was not Renoral. On Mr. Ter?
rel's Tdae?-, Jjowever, thfe n?gres rtfused to
make up the time, being led by Moses Gads?
den, a prominent negro member of the Union
HitM& K liU, ,, l.v^ I??! IA I? .. -?. .? -
would be fined ten dollars each if they made up
work lost on League meeting days, of which
the 5th was one. Moses said hs was advised
by Peter Hedges-a negro minister and prest*
dent of the League-not td allow himself to be
ejected, and not to make up the time. In this
the Union L?ague was to stand by him. This
was the immediate cause of tue disturbance
whioh ended very much in the way already de
scribed in Taos NEWS.
