To oar Friends in thc Country. The strtdeetjfehich THE NEWS has made tn cir? culation, especially In the country, within the last twelve months, encourage us to redouble our efforts to make it such a paper as everybody wants to read, and a visitor which shall be welcomed in every household m the State. There ls no good reason why a live Charleston newspaper, which keeps pace with the progress and spirit of the day, and is published at a price which places it within the reach ol au, should not, with proper maU faculties, attain a circulation of Thirty Thousand copies; and we canjn-omlse that no ex? ertions or enterprise shall be wanting on our part te make the regular edition or this journal ap? proximate to that figure. As a peculiarly attractive inducement to the planters of the State to become subscribers to THE NEWS before the expiration of the present year, we have arranged with Messrs. WahVer, steans A Cogswell, the publishers of the " Rural Carolinian," to supply that new and superb agri? cultural magazine, together with Tin: NEWS, at the following very low rates: THX DAILY NEWS and the '-Rural Carolinian." one year, for six dollars and fifty cents.? THE TKI-W EEKLV NEWS and the " Rural Caroli? nian, one year, for four dellars. Subscriptions to the two publications may be sent either to the proprietors of THE NEWS, or to the proprietors of the "Rural Carolinian." But parties desiring to avail themselves of this oner must do so before the first of January next, as the arrangement wU! not be extended beyond that period. When these rates are contrasted with those of the Charleston papers before the war, when the yearly prie? of a daily was ten dollars, and of a trl-weetly five dollars, In gold, or Its equivalent, we think we may fairly claim that Tax NEWS has labored to some purpose-Ja the diffusion of Intel? ligence- among the people at prices suited to the changed,aspect of the times.

There was an extra session of Council held last evening, at which were present the Mayor, Miler men Barrow, Cunningham, Collins, T. J. Mackey, Greene, Voigt, white; Brown, L. F. and E. P. Wall, Holloway, colored. The Mayor called the meeting to order at a quarter of 8 o'clock. Alderman Mackey, chairman ' the select com? mittee appointed to investigt 'ie administra? tion and records of the HarbO' aster's depart? ment, reported that the records ? .TC well kept and the duties of the office faithfully discharged, and recommended that thc assistant he employed at his own expense be paid by the city, as the office of Harbormaster was not only self-sustain? ing, but returned a net revenue to the city of $8000 per annum. In conclusion, the committee submitted a resolution providing that the Harbor? master be empowered to employ an assistant at a salary of f1000 per annum. The report, on motion of Alderman Greene, was accepted, and, on motion of Alderman Wall, the resolution was adopted. ' Alderman Mackey stated that the c'iject of the meeting was to adopt rules to govern the pro ceedings of Council In thc trial of Messrs. Averill and Guerry, which would commence to-night. He then submitted some rules, which the clerk commenced to read. Alderman Mackey interrupted the reading to move that a committee of three be appointed to report rules and regulations for the impending trial, saying: We have all. Mr. Mayor, enjoyed the privilege of being tried ourselves, but we have never had the pjjpasure of trying Democrats before, and> as it ls such a novel thing with us, we had better prooted with all the formalities. The motion was carried, and the Mayor an? nounced as the committee. Aldermen Mackey, Voigt and L. F. Wall. Alderman Mackey moved that Council take a recess of five minutes, In order to give thc com? mittee time to prepare a report. The motion was carried, and the committee re? tired to the Mayor's office. While the committee was out the Aldermen, who were lounging about the Council Chamber, were Individually invited' to.takers sherry cob? bler; each one accepted and retired to the Mayor's office. After an absence of about five minutes, the committee returned to the Council Chamber and Council was called to order. The committe then reported the following: ItES FOB TUE GOVERNMENT OK THE PROCEED? INGS ON THE TRIAL OF CTTT OFKCERS BY TUE CHT COUNCIL OF CHARLESTON. 1.

The Council shall retire to make up their ver? dict, but their decision, when arrived at, shall be announced by the chairmaln In open Council. Alderman Voigt moved the adoption of the rules. Carried. Alderman Mackey asked if Messrs. Guerry and Averill had been notified to appear ror trial on Wednesday evening, at 7 o'clock, whereupon the Clerk read a copy of the summonses to thc ac :used officers, which he stated he had sent on Ifonday. Alderman Mackey presented a bill to regulate he inspection and storage of Inflammable oils, i ind to provide for an inspector or tbe same, and ' isked for its first reading. Which was granted. Alderman E. P. Wall, colored, sarcastically. 1 Did the Alderman Include among his Inflammable ills thc Inflammable gnses alsov ] Alderman Mackey. I would have included , them, but the gentleman had not spoken then. ' Alderman Mackey moved that the bill be read :he second time by Its title. Alderman Wall, colored, said that the title of ( :he bill was not full enongh, as It did not Include nflammable gases, especially now as Council had MOOBM considerable of a gasometer. Alderman Mackey said that as there seemed to )e considerable vexation about the bill, he would | nove Its Immediate passage, as it would undoubt- . ;dly Ive pouring oil upon the troubled waters. After some discussion the motion for the second , reading was rejected, and the bill was ordered to j >e printed. Alderman L. F. Wall moved that the Council nd- . oura. *. . Tlie motion was carried, and Council adjourned . tutll 7 P. M. to-day. AN INTERESTING PATER.-Few papers published ( n this or any other country can compare in ex- j jelience and Interest with the New York Weekly. ; Thc serial stories published In its columns arc i ?vrltten by- the best American and English au- ? hors; the fun is furnished by Josh Billings and Jocsticks; the short stories, sketches and depart- , nents are always readable, and thc illustrations j ire Invariably flue specimens of art. Thc present s a good time to subscribe for thc New York* iVeekly, as by reference to the advertisement In mother column lt will be seen that thc "Hoy Whaler, or the Young Rovers," by Leon Lewis, Has just bceu commenced in Its columns. TROUBLE AT THE GUARDHOUSE-Born DEMO? CRATS AND RADICALS OBJECT TO THE APPOINTMENT OK NEGRO ROUNDSMEN.-Night before last the Chief of Police received orders from thc Mayor to dis Charge Roundsmen Geo. W. Scott and M. Hast? ings, and Private John Smith from the police force-all three of whom are Democrats. They were discharged and throe negroes, members of the night force and named as follows, were ap? pointed to fill their places: Thomas Barnfield and F. C. Desveruey, roundsmen; and John Simmons, private. The appointment of these negroes to thc im? portant position of roundsmen created a great deal of dissatisfaction among both the Democratic and Radical members of the force. About twelve o'clock a squad of armed men were seni to Ad? ieus wharf, auder the command of one of these negro roundsmen. Mr. J. C. Wcscott, a Demo? crat, was ordered to go with the squad, but re? fused, saying that he would not bc placed under the command of a negro.* He then resigned. The white Radical policemen, who, like their leaders, lwvc boasted so much about negro equality, were as much dl.sgusted.ut the appoint? ments as the Democrats. , They "fumed and fretted'' for a willie, and then, as we learn, a com? mittee of them" called upou thc Mayor to know whether the appointments could not be revoked. Thc reason or this disgust is (as asserted by some of tia members) because they have to sulutetlie roundsmen whenever they arc met. These discharges are ordered by the Mayor in conformity with his promise to the committee of the Loyal League, who were recently sent by that body to request the removal of all Conservative members of the police force. The mea who have been ?seharged are said to be among the best officers of the force. No reason was assigned ror their discharge. One or them applied to thc Mayor to ascertain what were thc charges against him. He was Informed that there was no fault whatever to and with him. He then requested the Mayor to give him his discharge in writing, which the Mayor refused, stating that he was not compelled to do so. The official axe ts expected to fall again to-day. How many Democratic heads will be under lt, is not yet stated.
