FINDING OF A DEAD BODY.-Late day before yesterday evening the body of a young man named Jnlius Schnell, who arrived In this city .bot a short time ago, was found on the beacli opposite Mr. Hatch's place, on Sullivan's Island, by two colored men who were walking along the sea wall.' As we learn, the deceased, early Tuesday morning, called at the Island Hotel and remained some time drinking soda water. About 3 o'clock he left, taking with him a bottle of the beverage and a glass, tel? ling the proprietor of the hotel he was going Ashing. When he departed he left his coat. He was not seen or heard of again after his de- I . parture until his body was discovered on the beach bylUie colored men, who were attracted ?to the spot by seeing a hat lying on the wall. The body waa in the water washing against the rocks. Near the hat were found a soda water bottle and a bottle containing morphine, to? gether with a glass which bore signs that a mixture of soda and morphine had been drunk from it On .the forehead of the deceased was a deep gash, which ls supposed to have been occasioned by contact with the rocks. The supposition is that the deceased took the morphine while on the beach for the purpose ofdommitting suicide, and while laying there the tide rose and floated his body, and, if not dead, drowned him. Coroner Whiting went over yesterday to Hold aa Inquest. He had not returned up to the present writing. THE CITY DEBT. RESTRAINING TRIES CITY ERO M EATING TSE INTEREST. Correspondence between thc Mayor and the Counsel for the Citizen). Ia yesterday's NEWS we mentioned that Messrs. Brewster, Spratt & Burke, and Asher j D. (?oben and C. D. Melton (of Columbia,) the counsel employed by the citizens to test the legality of the city debt, bad notified City At? torney Corbin that on Friday they would move before Judge Willard, at Columbia, for an b> [ junction to restrain the city from paying the interest on the city debt. To-day wc present the grounds for making the motion, and also the correspondence be? tween the counsel for the citizens and the Mayor. LETTER OF COUNSEL. The first letter, under date of June 30th, is from the counsel, relating to the action of Council upon their petition, submitted at the last meeting, requesting that the payment ot interest upon the city debt be suspended pend? ing a decision of the question. The letter ls as follows: CHARLESTON, S. C., June 30, 1870.1 No. 98 BROAD STREET. J To the Honorable the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Charleston: GENTLEMEN-A few days since we had the honor to address you on the part of a commit? tee of citizens, lo contest the city debi., and to request that you would suspend the payment of Interest pending a decision of the question. Receiving no reply, and seeing in your pub? lished proceedings that ocr letter was receiv? ed as information merely, we Infer that you decline compliance. But that there may be no misapprehension, and It may certainly appear that, in view of. necessary consequences, you persist in such recognition and enforcement of the debt, the committee requests us to bring the matter again to your attention. It is believed, and we presume the fact will be admitted, that you have already taken, in the way of taxes, enough to meet the current expenses of the city government. More can only be taken to the interest on the debt. That debt the committee are Instructed to resist, and they present that to the extent of $3,900, 000 Increased by arrears of interest, it was in? curred in the construction. Of railroads. That there is no power in your charter to such con? struction. That power cannot be given by an act of tho Legislature ex post facto, and that the act itself, attempting to validate bonds, does not attempt to give validity to stock al? most exclusively issued. Upon these grounds they contend the debt is questionable. They claim that it is you office to be neutral in this contest; that you did not contract the debt; that you find In your charter no warrant to contract it, and as little warrant | to pay interest on lt contracted by others, and they had hoped you would be content to stand i as stake-holders between the parties. But if | you shall not, and taking: what is necessary for the municipal purposes to which you are elect? ed, you persist In taking what more may be necessary to this interest on this debt, the committee in its office has no option but to oppose you, and move the court for prohibi? tion against enforcement of the tax.. It is for you to determine to what extent this may effect you. What the prospect of ex? ecutions with a community organized to resist them-what portion ot the taxes unpaid are necessary to the operations of your govern? ment-what the possibility that resistance, rightfully begun, may extend to other ends and other issues. To the committee these considerations are not important. Resistance rendered meritorious by your gratuitous en- j forcement of a claim contested, they can take tbe consequences, and see no reasons of policy why the merits of the question may not be presented In meeting executions to enforce the debt But Uiey do not court unnecessary issues; they would not unnecessarily come in coudie t with constituted authority; they would not wantonly embarrass your administration. Fairly, the question of the validity of the debt J will arise upon mandamus. If you shall cease [ to be the voluntary agent of the creditors in enforcement of this debt, they must make their application for that order. There the merits or the question wilt arise without embarass ment or other issues. This the committee would desire, and t rust? ing that you may yet find the motive to be passive lu the controversy, or if not, that you will advise us promptly of your resolution. We are respect tully, Tour obedient servants. BREWSTER, SPRATT & BURKE. ASHER D. COHEN, Solicitors for Committee. REPLY OF THE MAYOR. To the above letter the Mayor replied as fol? lows : CITY HALL, MAYOR'S OFFICE, | CHARLESTON, July 2,1870. j Messrs. Brewster, Spratt <fc Burke and Asher D. Collen, SolicitorsJor Committee: GENTLEMEN-Your communication of June 30til, 1870, to the Mayor and Aldermen of the city, has been duly received by me. There bas been no meeting of the Council since its reception, and consequently it has not yet been referred to them for considera? tion. It has, however, been submitted to the Committee of Ways and Means, who, after due consideration, decided to Instruct the City Treasurer to commence paying Interest, (as provided for,) on Tuesday, July 5th. unless restrained, by Judicial authority. I therefore take the responsibility of replying to your communication, . and interpreting to you, as faithfully as I can, the considerations which control the commit? tee, (and will undoubtedly control the City Council also,) and the course they seem dis posed to pursue. You Bay, soi bs tan tl al ly, among other things, that if the City Council do not refuse to pay the Interest on the city debt, a part of which is questioned, etc., but persist in taking money collected from taxes to pay the same, the "committee, In its office, has no option, but to oppose you, (ns) and move the court for pro? hibitions against the payment ot the tax." 'Tn reply, they say that the course of the City Council, in reference to the city debt, was plainly indicated In the published proceedings of their last meeting, viz: That the legality ot the Issues ot stock complained of by you, should be left to the determination of the courts. Still, so much has been said of the invalidity of a large portion of the debt, that they would be glad to have the matter submitted to judi? cial determination; but they do not think it judicious or wise for them to make the question. To do so, they would, In substance, be compelled to declare, in advance, the debt invalid, and then take the responsibility of maintaining that position in court. If you wish to raise the question, you have only to ask the courts to restrain the City Council from paying the debt, or the interest on it, as che same tails due. . Taxpayers may do this andj not Jeopardize ' the character or reputation of the city. In fact, they may do lt and hazard nothing but the expense of the litigation. As to the par? ticular manner in which you shall raise the question, you must be your own Judges. I would only say that it seems to me the part of | wisdom that you should do it in such manner as to raise the exact question, viz : the validity of debts created In ala of railroads outside of i the city, and no other, and in such manner as to injure the taxpayers, whom you are pre? sumed to represent, the least possible, in the event ot your not succeeding;, and that you press the suit to a speedy conclusion. If you should assail the City Council for their present system of taxation, I think you may reasonably expect a vigorous defence In that regard, as they express confidence in the im? pregnability of their position. Respectfully, your obedient servant, G. PILLSBURY, Mayor. GROUNDS FOR TUE INJUNCTION. In reply to the letter of the Mayor, Messrs. Brewster, Spratt & Burke, and A. D. Cohen, and C. D. Melton, (of Columbia,) notified the City Council of their intention to move for an injunction to restrain trom paying the interest on the city debt.
