Of the thirty-three deaths, tho females are twenty-two, males eleven. RESULT or THE LONGSHOREMAN'S STREU.-The apprehensions expressed tn recent Issues of THE NEWS were yesterday realized, and owing to a lack of organization and of a determined spirit on the part of the snippers, the Longshoremen's Union has carried Its point. The "strikers" yes? terday, with Stevedore Stoddard at their head, resumed work on the bark A. B. Wyman, and on other v?asela, the loading of whioh bad been de? layed by the strike. As a result of the resolution passed by the longshoremen that no membei should work for any stevedore not a member OJ the Union under a penalty of ten douars, most o: the stevedores were yesterday making overture* to join the organisation. The views of this paper with regard to the pol icy-or, to speak more properly, the want ol policy-with which the shippers have Men flt U meet the aggressive course of the longshoremen, have already been given te the public; and we cai only hope that the passive conduct of the em ploy ere in thia Instance may not result in frest and Injurious aggressions upon the conmercla interests of the city.

THE SHOOTING GALLERT. The Mayor Requests A Caneas of the Aldermen, bat a Special Sleeting of Council ls held Instead-Alderman T. J. Mackey ls not Summoned, bat Comes, Armed to the Teeth with the Law-Charges of Assaulting with In? tent to Kill Preferred against Him The Trial to take Place ToOIorrow Vlf ht. Since last Thursday night, when Alderman T4 J. Mackey showed his appreciation for lus nephew E. W. M. Mackey, by shooting at him three times In the Council Chamber during the session, the Aldermen generally-exclusive of the two above mentioned-have been in a state of ex? citement, which Increased as the time for the regular meeting drew nigh. As rumor hath lt, one Alderman thought that Alderman Thomas Jefferson Mackey should be expelled, and did any amount of caucusing among his brethren to ascertain their views and bring them to his way of thinking. In his efforts he was quite successful, and on Monday reported eleven who had expressed their willingness to meet the Issue and the "shootist" and vote for bis expulsion. But, in the opiuion of this Alder? man who wished to break up the band of broth? ers and displace their "General," thirteen votes were necessary to do so and make "one vacant chair" around the festive board, and he had only eleven votes. As he could not obtain any more, the plan of offering, seconding and immediately pass? ing a resolution for immediate expulsion was abandoned. The plan of preferring charges and specifications against the disorderly member was then thought of. A conference was necessary, however, to as? certain the status of the Aldermen lu regard to this move, and early yesterday the Mayor re? quested the presence of all of them excepting Al? derman T. J. Mackey, at the Council Chamber at 1 o'clock. NO CAUCUS. At 1 o'clock the council Chamber was undis? turbed by the presence of any of the fathers. The marks of the missiles on the window, table and wall were the only signs that remained to remind one of the shooting affray only a short time ago. That pistol was not there. [So one seems to know where lt was carried after being "uncocked" by an Alderman who did lt the day after the shoot? ing at the request of the Mayor, who said, (so the said Alderman says,) he was unaccustomed to such things.] About ten minutes past l Aldermen Geddings, Potter, Cunningham, Barrow, Voigt and the Mayor were present. In a few minutes, however, Aldermen Collins, E. W. M. Mackey, Hampton, Small, Howard, Holloway, Brown, Mc? Kinlay, L. F. and E. P. Wall, were reported as present. Aldermen Greene and Thorne and T. J. Mackey, the latter of whom had not been sum? moned, were absent. Most of the members assembled In the Council Chamber, but after remaining there awhile a number went into the clerk's office and talked matters over. One colored Alderman stated as his opinion that the Alderman they had come to expel would not be expelled, and would sue Council for "assault and battery If lt attemp ted to put him out." Another stated that he (Alder? man T. J. M.) weuld fight lt out ou that line If any attempt was made to expel him. A bystander suggested that If the Alderman were expelled, he (T. J. M.) would organize a Council of his own, declare the old one illegal and with the new one attend to municipal affairs. Just at this mo? ment some one reported that the Alderman lu question had arrived, whereupon a brother Alderman, with a dusky skin, thought that If there was any chance of a row the police had better be sent for. Two o'clock arrived, aud the prospects of a meeting, although more than a sufficient number to constitute a quorum were present, seemed very unfavorable. The Aldermen were scattered about, some in the Council Chamber, others in the clerk's office, acd some In the Mayor's office. Alderman T. J. Mackey was In his office armed with a large book entitled, "Abbott's Digest Law of Corporations," the contents of which bearing upon his case lt was evident he Intended, If op? portunity were offered, to hurl at tue Aldermen with the same freedom that he had hurled bullets from bis revolver at the last meeting of Council. MEETING OF COUNCIL. During this delay, Alderman Voigt and Cun? ningham were out, and if rumor be true, were at the office of the City Attorney (D. T. Corbin,) hav? ing charges and specifications drawn up. Short? ly after their return, however, all of the Aldermen assembled m the Council Chamber, and lt was de? cided that a special meeting, and not a caucus, Bhould be held. When the meeting was called to order, Alder? man Voigt presented the following charge and j specification, Alderman T. J. Mackey being pre? sent : CHARTE ANT) SPECIFICATION AGAINST THOMAS J. J. MACKEY, ALDERMAN OF WARD NO. 3 OF TUE CITY OF CHARLESTON. Charge.- Misconduct In office. ^ectrtoa ri on.-In this that he. Thomas J. Mackey, Alderman of Ward Ko. Z of the City of Charleston, did, at a meeting of the City Council of Charleston, duly assembled on the 2Sth day of October, 1869, in the City of Charleston, and while in the exercise of his bm ce as Alderman from Ward No. 3 of the City of Charleston, and a mem? ber of the City Council of Charleston, make an assault with ? deadly weapon, to wit, a loaded pistol, upon E. w. M. Mackey, a member of said City Council and Alderman from Ward No. 2 of the City of Charleston, and with Intent to kill him, said E. W. M. Mackey, did discharge at him, said E. W. M. Mackey, said deadly weapon three several times, all of which ls contrary to the good order, peace and safety of the City Connell, and in violation of the rights of said City Council, and tn flagrant violation of his, said Thomas J. Mac key's, duty as an Alderman from Ward No. ? of the City or Charleston. Alderman Geddings then offered the following resolution : Resolved, That the charge and sp?cification pre? ferred against Thomas J. Mackey, Alderman of Ward No. 3. of the City of Charleston, be accepted and adopted, and that a copy thereof be served upon said Thomas J. Mackey, and he be summon? ed to appear before the City Council on the 4th day of November, at . o'clock P. M., to answer said charge and specification, and abide the order of said City Connell ther- on. The vote upon the resolution was taken, and we leam that the following voted for it: The Mayor, Aldermen Geddings, Voigt, Barrow, Cunningham, Potter, Collins, (white,) Holloway, Howard, Small. Brown, colored-IL Aldermen Hampton and Mc? Kinlay, colored (2,) voted against the resolution. Aldermen E. P. and L. F. Wall, colored, and E.W. M. and T. J. Mackey, (4.) not voting. The resolution was Jeclared adopted. Connoll then adjourned until 6 o'clock to-mor? row evening. ". WILL HE BE EXPELLED? Some of the Aldermen in favor of expelling Al? derman T. J. Mackey claim that he will be cer? tainly expe?led, as the} will have votes sufficient to do so legally. They claim that tin. following wlUvote for expulsion: Mayor, Barrow, Collins, Cunningham, Greene, Geddings, Potter, Voigt, B P. and L. F. Wall, Small, Howard, Brown, Hoi loway, (14,) and E. W. M. Mackey, Thorne, Hamp? ton and McKinlay, (4) against. THE COAL MARKET.-The following intelli? gence In reference to the present condition of the coal market, is contained in a letter from Phil? adelphia, under date October 30th: "We have to advise you of a decided advance In the market since we last wrote you. The demand continues very large, and we are obliged to refuse orders. We quote to you, however, red ash egg $7 50 per ton, with an advancing tendency." CORBIN HAS AN ORDER FOR THE THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS, BUT HAS NOT THE MONEY. We learn that the Mayor, on Monday last, gave D. T. Corbin an order upon the City Treasurer for the sum of three thousand dollars, and that on the same day Corbin applied to the treasurer for the money, and when told that that amount was not in the treasury, asked for five hundred dol? lars on account, which he did not receive-for the same reason we suppose. Lf a meeting ol Council had been held last night the subjeet would have been brought up, unless the Mayoi had put on the "gag," and thoroughly discussed. It ls thought the money will never be paid. We have heard one Alderman, who was one of the earliest and warmest supporters of the claim, as? sert that the claim was not legally passe'd, and that if It were brought up again he would noi sapport lt. THE FLOCK INSPECTOR- HE IS FINED FIFTY DOLLARS, AND APPEALS.-Yesterday Mr. C. N. Averill, Flour Inspector, was arraigned before the Mayor to answer thc charge of violating the ordi? nance '-to prevent or punish any person who may exercise, or attempt to exercise, thc duties of any municipal office, unless he shall have been duly elected to the same." Witnesses proved that Mr. Averill had been in? specting dour, and that being considered by the Mayor a violation or said ordinance, he imposed a fine of $50. Messrs. Wilkinson and Gilchrist, who represented Mr. Averill, demurred to the juris? diction of the court, and when the fine was Im? posed, announced that they would appeal. After? ward Mr. Averill gave bond in the sum of $100 before Magistrate Mackey to appear before the City Court. _ _ THE ACADEMY OP MCSIC-A MARKED COMPLI? MENT TO A YOUNO CHARLESTON ARCHITECT.-Mr. John Chadwick, the proprietor of our new and magnificent Opera-House, publishes the following well deserved tribute to the marvellous energy and promptitude with which Mr. John H. Deve? reux, the accomplished architect of the building, has fulfilled his contract: A CARD. To John ll. Devereux, Esq., and his able Coad? jutors: I beg to tender my grateful acknowledgments ror the thorough, substantial and tasteful manner lu which you have erected and completed the "Academy or Music," binding you, as I did, to ninety days, in which to complete the contract. You have finished the building, with all Its Intri? cate detail, In sixty days, displaying promptitude and energy unsurpassed by unythlng that I ever saw North or South. JOHN CHADWICK. "Academy of Music." November 1,1809. CRUMBS.-E. M. Cox, who was arrested upon the charge of highway robbery, has been com? mitted to jail by Magistrate Mackey in default of $3000 bail. The fines Imposed by the Mayor yesterday amounted to $97. Five benzine guzzlers were before the Mayor yesterday. Mr. Buckley, whose son was drowned on Sulli? van's Island on Sunday last, has lost three chil? dren by drownlug-one while crossing the bar In a boat, another fell into a tub, and the last In a cistern. It was Louis J. Taylor, and not Isaac Taylor, who was secretary of the colored Conservative meeting held Monday night. The Grand Jury of the State Court yesterday returned several true bills. There was a council composed of representa? tives of all the Union Leagues of Charleston County, held at the Military Hall last Thursday. THE COMINO AMUSEMENT SEASON promises to be one of the gayest and most attractive ever known in Charleston. The new Academy of Music, now nearly completed, has, we are grati? fied to leam, been leased by that excellent gen? tleman and prince or managers, John T. Ford, or Ealtlmore, tor two months rrom the first of De? cember, on which date the building will be turn? ed over to him by Its proprietor In complete or? der. We are much mistaken if this bijou ot an opera-honse does not prove a powerful attraction to the crowds of visitors from all parts or this and the adjoining States, who resort to Charles? ton Tor purposes of trade. Manager Ford proposes, we learn, to open the Academy of Music with a short season of grand French opera; and as he never does things by halves, we may expect first-rate artists, with a full and trained orchestra and chorus, and a series of performances which will crowd the bouse from pit to dome. The French opera will be succeeded by the char? ming Chapman Sisters with the come? dian Bishop, who are now delighting New Orleans-and these In turn by other novelties not less attractive. On the conclusion of Manager Ford's engagement ia February, the Academy will be leased for a short season to the famous Worrell Sisters, whose representations have been so popular In New York and throughout the West. Besides these, negotiations are on foot which jus? tify the expectation that we shaU be visited m turn by Brlgnoll, Miss McCullough, Parepa-Rosa, Patti and other divinities-so that, altogether, there ls no danger or our languishing this winter lor want or evening amusements. THE OUSTED OFFICERS-JUDGE MOSES AWARDS A RULE AGAINST THEM.-On Thursday last the counsel or Messrs. W. N. Hughes, Asses? sor, C. P. Frazer, Assistant Assessor, P. C. Quer? ry, City Sheriff, and C. N. Averill, Flour Inspec tor, applied to Chief justice Moses to grant a rule to make P. J. Coogan, M. G. Camplin, colored, George Addison and M. Caulfield, holding the offices respectively of Appraiser alias Assessor, Assistant Appraiser ahas Assistant Assessor, City Sheriff and Flour Inspector, show cause why they should not be attached for contempt of court la not obeying the recent order of the Chief Justice forbidding them to meddle with or concern them? selves abont the duties of the offices they thea held and now hold. On Saturday the Chief Justice granted the ap? plication, as will be seen by the rollowlng copy of the rule filed la the Clerk's office yesterday, co? pies of which have been served on the parties in? terested : I THE STATE EX REL. THE ATTORNEY-OKNERAL TS. ' P. J. COOGAN, [OR M. U. CAMPLIN, OR GEORGE AD? DISON, OR M. CAULFIELD, AS THE CASE MIGHT BE.] On hearing the affidavit in this case, on motion or Lesesne 4 Miles, lt is ordered that a rule do forthwith lssne against P. J. Coogan, [or M. G. Camplin, or George Addison, or M.

Wilbur 4 Son, at No. 186 King, opposite Silcox's Furniture Warerooms. The col? lection will be open to inspection all day to-day. See advertisement. KISSING EXTRAORDINARY.-To kiss volunta? rily Ls always a pleasure; sometimes it is a luxury There ls, we presume, some gratification, how? ever small, In one school girl kissing another; there ts certainly more la a young mother kissing her first offspring, and surely there is the heighth of happiness lu a lover kissing his mistress, and vice versa. But to kiss against your will, to kiss your rather's grand uncle when you are a boy, or your mother's grand aunt when you are a girl, that is abominable. But to be made to kiss the same person one hundred times a day, in public and in private, and that person an old person and an ugly person, a person without heart, soul or reefing, and without any reference to your own inclination, ls not that the depth of misery ? How, then, should we pity those two India rubber coun? terfeits of aged humanity, compelled hourly to undergo this mockery of felicity for the amuse? ment of the visitors to Von Santen's Christmas Depot, ut No. 229 King street. To THE LADIES.-We beg to call your special attention to two (incases or Poplins in choice styles and colors at twenty-live cents.
