Although lt was announced that the meeting

to order until Tnt*, and Hie interim was con
sumed by the members in frequent visits lo
thc Mayor's chamber. The audience was of
a more respectable cast than has graced pre.
viona meetings, iud was largely white: tlie
colored men and brethren were evidently nut
anxious to be the recipients of stray bull is, and
kept away. Amone; those present were Three*

quite lively among (he outsiders, and the corners

Aldcriunn Reddings offered a resolution that
thc City Attorney tic requested to bc present and
lo conduct thc charges agulnst Alderman T. J.
Mackey.
At this stage thc Alderman In question came
In us cool and unconcerned us ir he were not the

specifications.
After inc reading the Clerk was again directed
by tho Codifier to demand or Alderman T. J. Mac
key If he was guilty or not guilty.
Colonel H.. W. Seymour, who was sitting near
Alderman T. J. Mackey, rose and stated thal ho
represented the Alderman,and desired first to pro
test ngninst the Jurisdiction of Council in this case,
as it was already presented bet re u higher tribu
nal, and until that decision was rendered no ac
tion could bc taken by Council.
Alderman McKinlay roso to a point or order,
and asked in what capacity Mr. Seymour was ad
dressing Council. On Hie statement being made
that he was the counsel for thc accused, Alder
man McKinlay subsided.
U. T. Corbin slated that Hie plea against tho Ju
risdiction or Council should bo presented In writ
ing.
Alderman McKinlay took issue willi Mr. Sey
mour, and argued that Hie power or Council to
try was unquestioned.
The eily Attorney claimed that thc assault
having occurred in Council Chamber during a
session, was or Useir sullloient to warrant thc
trial.
Alderman Geddings odored a resolution that thc
plea against tho Jurisdiction bo overruled and
that the trial bo proceeded with. This was car
ried unanimously, when T, J. Mackey rose and
desired to make a few remarks. He kept Hie
Uoor for some lime, and made an elaborate
?peech, quoting from authorities, nan howina*
il Connell had no ii jm* . ." i - w h
case, buring this harangue Alderman Geddiugs
rose io a point or order iltat the Alderman was
not confining himself to thc question, bul Indulg- ;
lng in rlioiorical nourishes.
Thc Mayor decided the point well taken, but,
though interrupted frequently. Alderman T. J.
Mackey kopi his ground, and gracefully conclud
ed lils porcoralion.
Alderman Geddings rose willi an open book in
his baud, and said thai he had learned to read
when young, and still did so, aud commenced
quoting some authorities. **
DISPOSITION TO BOLT.
Alderman T. J. Mackey Interrupted him at this
point, and warned Alderman Ueddings that ho
would permit no personalities, or ho would use
his privilege ns an Alderman, and show up the
past record of Alderman Ueddings, and strip every
mask from his corrupt body. (At this statement
there was an evident disposition on the part or
thc colored spectators to bolt.)
Alderman Holloway called r<ir the previous
question, mid Alderman E. W. M. Mackey called

cil decided overruled.

proceeded willi, and Alderman T. J. Mackey be
made lo plead gullly or not guilty.

on thc gag, and said lt had been already decided.

Thc City Attorney staled that Council had thc
power to act us they chose; lhere was no occasion
for farther time, as there were a number ur wit
nesses present.

reason for demanding lime, and on a movement
from the City Attorney ho said Unit lie would not

Alderman T. J. Mackey. I protest against thc

Alderman T. J. Mackey. Let all be cool. 1 ct
not defend myself now as I would under oil

To punish that mau (pointing to (I, W. Clark,)
Hila unfortunate Individual ou tay right (barro'
ls not now necessary; bul if these men winni
charge with corruption will give me until s o'ck
to-morrow morning, I will proveihat bribes wi

During Alderman T. J. Mackey'* remarks,
said : Alderman Collins called on me thc <
after Hie affray, expressed his regret ul the

and reseul any measure to censure or expel i
Alderman Harrow. I want Justice done mc

Alderman T. J. Mackey. 1 said yo could buy a

Alderman Cunningham here rose ami stated that
he bad a resolution to offer, nud sent it to the

Alderman Collins. Alderman Mackey says that
1 promised to support him. in any measure ut
Council to expel or censure bim. When I said ll,
I incant it, for then 1 thought that he had advo
cated thc corbin claim because be believed lt to

when, thc uexi day, I beard thal be had prepared

was not safe tobe in Council willi such a mau,
and, therefore, I am in favor of expelling him.
Alderman T. J. Mackey, So; I reckon not.
Criminals are not safe here; their day or reckon
ing will conic.
Alderman h. P. Wall said bc would consider

If he did nut ra vor the graining of every oppor
tunity to prove tito charges of bribery preferred
by Alderman Mackey against certain Aldermen,
and moved that Alderman T.J. Mackey bc allow
ed milli ti o'clock thc next day lo prove thc

Alderman Jobina claimed ihui thc charges thai
Alderman Mackey preferred bgainst other Alder
men would uot cover the chaigc against him.
Alderman E.P.Wall sahl Colins was always full
of good Intentions and honoi; that he himself
council an Investigation iu order that Hie com
munity nilghi know who were gullly; that hu
did not four thc result himself.
Alderman T. J. Mackay. Nuttier you nor your
brother need fear au lnvcstig.illou.
Alderman Voigt thought tba: some other lime
would do to hear thc charges preferred.
Alderman Cunningham bad als resolution read,
lt ls as follows:
ttnaief , That ns it is apparent from thc course
of examin t ion of witnesses on the pari of the ile
fence, numerous witnesses being called to testify
to lin-same frivolous mut tors, that Ho furthei
examination or testimony, or pretended lesli
monv, do cease, and Hutt counsel on each shh
proceed with thc argument, to be Ihuited lo thirty
minutes on each side.
Alderman T. J. Mackey protested against thi
adoption or tins r solut lou, and moved that lt bi

Hally: ltJs necessary that 1 slonld proceed, bu

for thc Indignity to which, hi> hus bceu subject c

a number of lawyers in litis city to obtain thel
?jerricop, but they declined to represent mc sold
npon political grounds. ^
affray or last Thursday night arc a i^kVi
blauk to me. 1 can prove that 1 reached home lu
stale of delirium, und that a physician used th
strongest antidotes lo rclltvc tuc. I Intended t
introduce testimony lo proie this and olin
tilings that wonld show that Iwas not icspous
ble for my actions on that light, tint you ha>
stopped mc from so doing. I .bungin that as tl
Hoard had otublncri to coinlct mc, under an
circumstances, they wonld have given me a fa
hearing, and thc report of their nctiou goic
abroad would have injured mc; but their action t
night has relieved mc or ult apprehensions or th;
character. Yon have made up your verdict ami w
perhaps expel me, hut 1 go to thc people, who w
return me to courront you mut ohcek your n
radons schemes-schemes so ruse that ouc shrin!
appalled at the very thought or them. I hold I
power of this body the oitlcc of inspecte
Henel al of Timber and Lumber, i tu
your commission nt your feel, as I dee
lt a great dishonor to hold a commissi
under your hand (pointing tt the Mayor.) t
the majority of this Council. Before leaving
desire to clear my skirts of thc charge ma
against mc by a witness. Hint I advocated I
(Corbin) claim-. I had declared openly and oft
ihat D. T. Corbin did not deserve the (3000, am
would not sustain him tu H. When the matt
was referred to thc committee or Ways ai
Means, or which I am chairman, Alderman Cu
ningham, the Mayor and others urged mc to mu
a favorable report. The Mayor and four otb
control Hie patronage of Hie city. .There wc
around mc hundreds of men ont of employ mei
and with their families and little one* Marvin
They applied to me for work. Without thc Indues
of thc Mayor and these four Aldermen, I could r
secure thc appointment of one of these men on t
police force or on the streets. I could not sec tin
men suffering when it was in my power to sp
them, and I signed thc report, hut Intendedalwt
toopposc lt. The people of South carolina will
sent thc action that has heretofore character!;
thc dillans. They will hurl thc mlscru
thieves to their homes In Massachusetts, u
nothing will bc seen of them lint their backs

Ile then read his resignation, and said:
do not hurl this at your feet for your ncccpiau

Alderman E. W. M. Mackey. I did not inti
to say anything when I came herc tn-ulght, bi
must speak. Ol all here, 1 am thc most injin
I came hore believing that lhere was some se
of decency und justice left among the Abierto

from a late Savannah Price Current: "Weare

business healthy. The credit of our city is dally
gaining ground, as the honorable intent ions of

Important report was ordered to be republished
7io thc Chamber af Commerce, Charleston}
GENTLEMEN-Thc undersigned, your commit lei
appointed at a meeting ot thc Chamber on Maj
ai, to take Into consideration certain subject!
connected with thc sale or collou lu this city
beg to report that they have carefully examine*
Into Hie subject of thc loss of weight on collin
weighed in Hits and shipped lo other ports. Foi
Ibis purpose they have carefully weighed severa
bales of colton upon thc lower Market public scales
and Hud they ore entirely unlined for this purpose
the same bale varying several pounds at dir
furent trials. They would, therefore, report ad
versely lo the employment of large statlonarj
scales or Hint character. They further welghct
these same bales on all of the scales now used bj
Hie wharves for that purpose, and round norna
terial variation between the different scales. The:
have IK'CII forced to the conclusion that Hie seal
now lu use ls the best that they can recommend
Thc more so that lhere is the same complaint o
loss on colton shipped from New Orleans, when
thc beam scale ls employed. They attribute tin
loss nf weight complained or to have been causea
principally by drying in the holds or the st ea lil
ors, as cotton shipped by sall generally holds ou
In weight. Your committee heat til) endorse tin
recommendation with regard to the more carcfii
packing und baling or colton by our planters
feeling sure thal lt would ho very much to thel
Interest as a protection from stealing.
As Hiesellersor colton have taken up the null
jeet or Insurance, storage ami thc time for de
livery ol colton after sale, and us Ute prospect
ure favorable toa satlsraciory adjustment ot lliest
points, wc would recommend that we shotili
await thc result of Hieir action In this maller.
L'poti examination or the through rales o
rreight per railroad, ns compared with tho loca
rates, wc ure saltshed that at present no dlscrlm
million is made which can materially aired tin
Interests or our market, and we rurlher bellevi
that the direction or our several lines or rullroai
