Rich? mond, whose shingle announces him to be an "attorney at law," was arrigned before Magia? trates Morrison and Mackey yesterday co an? swer the charges of forgery and obtaining money ander false pretences, preferred by a colored woman named Nancy Higgins, who asserted that rtichmond compromised a bas? tardy case for ber for one hundred and fifty dollars, and though he received that amount, only gave her seventy-five dollars, stating that was all he could get, and then signed Nancy's nama to a receipt for one hnndred and fifty dollars, and gave it to the man in question. Nancy failed to mak? a case against the "at? torney at law," and he wa? discharged; bat the attorney acknowledged that he bad re? ceived one hundred and fifty dollars from the young man, and gave Borsnty-flve dollars to Nancy; paid twenty-five dollars to Magistrate Bunch to go upon a bond, and fifteen dollars to some one else to do the same thing and kept the remainder, thirty-five dollars, for bis pro? fessional services. Nancy had paid him ten dollars at the start, to conduct the case for her. Any way the case is looked at it shows badly for Richmond, and the members of the bar should certainly do, as it is said they will move to have bis name stricken from the honorable roll of attorneys.

Officers Lovett and McLemore arresting officers. THE POLICE Brue-IT IS YET WAITIHO FOB CLAHSKBN_In yesterday s NEWS we fervently expressed the hope that the Police bill wonld receive final action last night. But it was not brought up nor even mentioned. The bill, as amended and printed, was laying upon the desk of each member, but no one made any reference to it. The "general" of this bill glared uneasily at the phalanx before him, composed of Aldermen Geddings, Voigt, Pot? ter, Cunningham, Collins, and Small, oolored, who seemed to be anxiously waiting for the introduction of tho bill only for the purpose of springing upon it and tearing it to piecas. Al? derman Barrow stood by as principal aid to the "general." Aldermen Greene, L. F. and E. P. Wall, Howard and Holloway, (last four color-' ed,) appeared totally uninterested, and whether they would have aided In the assault upon the bill or protected it is yetto be known. Mattera stood thus until half-past nine o'clock; all of the petitions, reports, Ac., had been acted upon. At this bonr, amid breathless excite? ment, the "general" arose and said, "Mr. Mayor: I now move"-(the opponents of the police bill thinking be intended to move its second reading, moved up to their mouths a large stock of ammunition - 'lay-upon-the table' round shot, 'indefinitely - postpone' shell and 'adjourn' musket balls, ready to hurl them into the face of the "general ' as soon as he opened upon them with the bill)-bat he had seen that there was no chance, as some of his supporters were absent,"-and after a long pause, continued-"that this Council adjourn." And it did. We are gladtoannouoce that there was such a decided opposition evinced to the Police Bill, and that it puy now be considered de? funct. The "general" had better nammon his clansmen and bury it. It will be seen by the following that there was a stroDg bid for tue votes of tho colored Aldermen, and also that it was the intention of the framers of the bill to have discharged from the force all the Con? servative members; and to do this, without placing the Mayor under tho necessity of dis? charging them and thus creating a great deal of confusion and trouble, a clause was provid? ed to meet the case. The bill, as amended, provides that the ' 'po? lice force shall consist of one captain, two lieu? tenants, two sergeants, twelve roundsmen, and seventy-six privates or policemen, all of whom shall be, day and night, at the command and in the service of the oity;" and that it "shall alieays be composed, as nearly as practicable, of onje-haif colored citizens and one-half white citizens of the City of Charleston." That "the captain and lieutenants shall be ?ominated by the Mayor, and elected by Coun? cil. Said officers may bo suspended by the Mayor for cause, which suspension shall be subject to the action of Council, and all other members of the police force shall be appointed and discharged by the Mayor, who shall in all cases furnish the appointee with a warrant of appointment; Provided, that eaoh applicant for an appointment shall be well recommended by a member of the City Council; and any member of the existing police organization, who shalt not have reoeioed, within five days after the ratificition of this ordinance, a war? rant of appointment from the Mayor, shalt thereupon cease to be a member of the police force of tie City of Charleston.1' The Inspection of Timber. LUISTO BrvcB. September 18. TO THE 1' Ll TOR OF THE NEWS. lu your issue of the 11th, I see a communi? cation signed T. J. Mackey, Inspector-General of Timber and Lumber, undertaking "to no? tice certain errors in which your correspond? ent, 'Justifia,' has fallen into," kc. Aller rrosing bis article carefully, I must say that have failed to see any errors that he has shown, except in regard to the date of the "act;" on the other hand, he bas "fallen into" BU ch gross errors that it would hardly be ne? cessary for me to notice them were it not that my silence might be misconstrued. It, as he contends, the office of inspector general, kc, is tho same, except in name, as that of inspector and surveyor, where is the necessity of an ordinance of the City Council to create such an office? and is it not plain to every one except he, who expects to derive the emoluments of such an office, that the City Council has "exoeeded its authority," when the act provides that these inspectors, kc, "sholl be elected annually," and tbe ordinance that "the inspector-general shall be elected re? gularly everv two years." Ho says that your correspondent further alleges that the ordinance violates also tho act of 1856, reducing the fees to eight cents per thousand feet, fu this he is again in error, Ac. Now, if he had taken "section 3 of the act of 1853," ia connection with that of 1856, t which says, "it shall bo the duty of the surveyor and inspector tv> measure all timber in the manner aforesaid, brought for sale to the City of Charleston, at inc request of any person own? ing or baying tho same, And ebal! give a cer? tificate to such person speclrjia? the quality and kind and quantity, kc.,") he mis ht have readily seen that everything ls required to bo done under th,s "act" that be undertakes to subdivide, in j -o.ideation of the ordinance (ex? cept classifying and marking) and that eight cents per thousand feet is thc fee for it all. At that price, with the addition of classifying and marking, tho office is much more remune? rative, to the inspector, than the profits on timber sold is to tho cutter; as I have known the measurers to often make eight and ten dollars in two boura, and there is no cutter, with his team included, that can make that amount in the same space of time; then to rai io it to thirty cents per thousand feet, about one-third of what is usually given to the labor? ers for squaring and hewing the same timber, would be too much to bear. The "act" does not require timber to be classified or marked, and the probabilities are that snch an office might act injuriously to either the cutter or seller.it it should be filled, as most are at present, with unqualified persons. I am glad to see that Mr. Mackey has seen a few defects, at lea-1. in the ordinance, if not in the "title of the office or fees authorized to be charged;" though he is very much mis? taken in saying that "with the exception of the defects cited, the ordinance gives general satisfaction to the timber cutter." Now, I live among the cutters and have conversed free? ly with numbers of them on the subject, and I have the first one to find yet, who approves of it, or who does not consider it an imposi? tion and assumption of authority, unwarranted by the existing "acts" on the subject. A mere rigid and just measurement, and a proportionate incr?aae of the fees therofor, enacted by the proper authority, will not be objected to; uutil that is done, I think the present inspectors, kc, will have some trouble in collecting their bills tor over eight cents per thousand fret, notwitstanding Mr. Mackey would have us believe that thirty cents in tho nggregato was three cents lower per thousand feet, than tiiey have ever been, or, in other words, than the eight cents usually paid. By what kind of an arithmetical calculation this conclusion is arrived at, I am unable to com? prehend. JUSTITIA. BUSINESS NOTICES.
