Carthy. The title is "Judith, a Tale or Two
-Continents." The scene opens In London,
?and although the story progresses In this num?
ber hardly enough to warrant decided com?
ment, Ae peculiar excellences of Mr. McCar?
thy's style are evident and it may be consider?
ed to promise well. The other serial, "Over?
land," ls continued to its - tenth chapter. This
number bf the Galaxy has, however, much to
?commend lt besides Its serials. E. A. Pollard
-attempts to overthrow our confidence In Pat?
rick Henry, and Richard Grant White prods

1836, but spent most ot his early years on the
Edlsto River. He entered the College of
Charleston In 1851, graduated in 1857, was
admitted to the bar in 1859, and followed his
profession until the commencement ol the war,
when he volunteered in the Cadet Riflemen,
.Captain W. S. Elliott, soon rising to the rank
of first lieutenant. A short time after this he
received an appointment In the Engineer De?
partment, where he served for some months,
but preferring the activity and excitement of
the flwftb the sedentary duties of the office,
he resigned his appointment and volunteered
as a private In Company I, Third Regiment of
Cavalry, in which 'he remained until the close
of the war. After the courts were re-estab?
lished. Mr. Mikeil resumed the practice of his
profession, at first alone, and afterwards in
connection with Colonel Alexander H. Brown,
with whom he was still associated at the time
of his death. Mr. Mikell was one of the most
popular young menin our city, and his loss
will be greatly felt by the host of friends which
be had made among our citizens.

ed thatthe report of the Courier was unoffi?
cial, and, on motion, the minutes were con?

A communication from W. C. Bee & Co.,
stating that they baye been appointed agents
of the North British. and Mercantile Insurance
Company of London and Edinburgh, and ask?
ing If a license was necessary, was referred to
the city appraiser with power to act.
One from Miss Susan Armstrong, notifying
Council ot ber Intention to make an alteration
In her property, was referred to the committee
on brick and wooden buildings.
One from Cameron. Barkley A Co., stating
that they were unable to collect from the
Board of Firemasters the cost of four trumpets,
worth forty-dollars each, furnished, as they
thought, under proper authority, which elicited
some discussion, and, on motion, lc was or?
dered that the bill be not paid.
Alderman Geddings, trom the finance com?
mittee, reported a number of bilis as correct,
and recommended-their payment, and one
bill as not ha ving. been signed. 'The report
was adopted. . ip.
Several bills for printing were presented,
and created a considerable deal of discussion,
and, after a lengthy debate, they were referred
to the finance committee, and, on motion, lt
was resolved that-hereafter no Job printing
should be done unless recommended by the
proper committee. ...
A bill from the Lunatic Asylum, In Colum?
bia, was laid on the table.
Alderman Greene made a lengthy and
elaborate report of the meeting of the Mem?
phis and Charleston Railroad Company, giving
statistical and other information from the re?
ports of the officers ot the road. Received as
information, and ordered to be printed.
Alderman Potter, from the committee on
streets, made a report recommending that one
dollar per square foot be paid for the land of
Mr. A. Nimitz, taken by the city, between
Queen and Cumberland streets on East Bay.
Adopted.
Alderman L. F. Wall, from the committee
on steam engines, reported favorably on the
petition ot Captain F. G. Cart, praying that he
might erect a steam engine on the south side
of Southern wharf, for the purpose of making
sugar from sorghum cane. Adopted.
A communication was presented from the
City Engineer stating that he had been de?
prived of his office and pay without having
the Investigation which he desired granted.
A committee had been appointed some months
since, which had never reported any action,
and he now desired that the report be read
and acted upon, as his case had stood upon
the journal of Council for several months.
' Alderman Voigt, from this committee, read
an able report defending Mr. Bar bot, the civil
engineer, and recommending that he be rein?
stated. This report occasioned a considerable
amount of very- angry discussion. Alderman
Collins, from the same committee, lu a spirit
of Christian charity, read a minority report,
recommending that the charge of wilful fraud
be dismissed, and that Mr. Barbot be reinsta?
ted and paid his back salary. He was ans?
wered by Alderman E. P. Wall, who, In
turn, was Interrupted about twenty times by
Alderman Colliny, who rose to "points of privi?
lege," which he defended upon the most utter?
ly ridiculous grounds. The debate was very
much protracted, and was participated in by
Aldermen Barrow, Geddings, Greene, Hollo?
way, Cunningham, L. F. Wall and Smalls, in
addition to those mentioned above. Alder- i
mea Barrow and Geddings became so personal
In their remarks that the Mayor was obliged
to call them to order repeatedly. Each denied
most positively the statements made by the
other, and was ready to swear to the truth of
his own-Alderman Collins rising to "points
of privilege" at every lull in the storm, and of?
fering Innumerable motions and amendments
ol the most absurd nature, and altogether
acting more like a child than we have ever
seen him do before.
The anger ot all parties seeming to be
steadily on the Increase, Alderman E. P. Wall
very sensibly called for the question, and the
report was adopted.
On motion, Council then adjourned.
REFORM CLUB OF WARD No. 3_The regu?
lar meeting of this club was held last night,
and was well attended. The meeting was ad?
dressed by Mr. Merchant. He referred to the

Ring, and hoped that the Scott dynasty would
soon reach its quietus. His remarks were
warmly applauded.
Mr. Alley, being called upon, addressed the
club, directing his remarks specially to the
colored people present. He showed the iden?
tity of the two classes, and exposed the
phosphate monopoly, and dealt telling blows
against monopolists generally. His remarks
about Governor Orr, showing up the Governor
In bis true light, were received with loud and
prolonged applause. The high taxation receiv?
ed due attention from the speaker, and did not
fall to rivet the attention of his hearers. Mr.
Alley's remarks elicited great applause.
Mr. Black being called for, replied in his
usual happy and effective style, urging upon
his hearers the necessity of Reform. He would
say, truthfully, that the great cry of Reform
was echoed from place to place, and
success must attend the efforts for reforma?
tion. In the nomination of Carpenter and
Butler, he recognized the necessity ot working
for the good of our- entire people. He con?
gratulated the ward upon the success it had at?

TO TBE A.TTORXET- GENERA. JJ.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
Allow me the use of your columns to ask the
Hon. Mr. Chamberlain the following question :
Ls not the organization of volunteer com?
panies (not incorporated by special acts,) as
lately conducted in the different counties by the
Govsrnor and his Acting Adjutant-General, un
lawful and indictable, under s ?ction 14of act of
March 16,1869?
I quote from that section : '-Provided, That
there shall be no military organizUions,
or formations for tue purpose of forming, drill?
ing, exercising the manual of arms, or military
manouvres, not authorized under this actt and
by the commandar-in-chief; and any neglect
or violations of the provisions of this section
shall, upon conviction, be punished with im?
prisonment at bard labor in the State Peniten?
tiary for a term not less than one year, nor
more than three years, at the discretion of a
competent court."
The act requires an organizion in the
militia of "all able-bodied milo citizens be?
tween the ages or eighteen and forty-five
years," with certain exceptions.
These "volunteer" negro companies are for
the object of brewing ill-blood between the
races, io induenco the ejection, and produce a
collision il necessary. This we know-but
please answer the purely legal question.

STONEWALL JACKSON MEMO?
RIAL ASSOCIATION.-AN APPEAL TO THE
PUBLIC-The admirers of the exalted virtues or
the late Lieu tenant- G eu eral T. J. JACKSON are
now endeavoring to raise the requisite funds to
erect a suitable MEMORIAL to this great and
good man.
For this purpose agencies are now being em?
ployed by the formation of Auxiliary Memorial
Associations In the several States, through which
contributions are solicited In aid ot the noble
work.
The scheme contemplates the erection of a ME?
MORIAL CHAPEL at the Virginia Military Insti?
tute, Lexington, Va., with which Institution Gen?
eral JACKSON was connected fourteen years as a
Professor, and near to which bia remains now
Ue. It is believed that snch a Memorial would be
most in harmony with the character of this re?
nowned Christian hero.
It ls proposed to place within this Memorial
Chapel a Statue, in bronze or marble, to transmit
to coming generations the reatares, form and ex?
pression or one whose name and virtues are alike
known and honored throughout the civilized
world, and who was a bright c ie mp 'ar or what?
ever was true and noble and ot good report
among men.
It ls estimated that $50,000 will be required for
these pnrposes. We invoke contributions from
all who will unite with us in paying this tribute
to the memory of STONEWALL JACKSON.
No local or sectional views restrict the scheme.
It ls national In its design. The North has cor?
dially responded to the appeal. The East and
West are moving In lt; while the rollowers of
Jackson In th? field, and on the march throughout
the South, are sending forward their tributes to
the memory of their noble Chieftain. J
Thc funds, as they are collected, may be for?
warded by check or by express, to the undersign?
ed, Lexington, virginia, who, as President or the
Board of Visitors of the Virginia Military Insti?
tute, has been designated by the Central Memo?

ps? THE SEASON OF EXHAUSTION.
The close sultry weather which usually pievaiis'
toward the end of sommer ls particularly unfavo?
rable to the feeble and enervated. Even the well
knit frames of strong men feel the influence of
the season, and lassitude and languor pervade
the whole community. Ladies, especially those
in delicate health, suffer much from debility, oc?
casioned by the humid heat, and feel the want of
a wholesome Invlgorant. In fact, a necessity for
something to recruit the exhausted system ls ex?
perienced, more or less, by everybody, and the
only question ls, what that something will be.
With those who have tested the effector HOSTET-^
TE R'S STOMACH BITTERS on themselves, or
have observed.its effects on. others, this question
will not be in doubt for a single moment. Its
tonic and regulating operation, and its agency In
creating a healthy appetite and promoting diges?
tion, are rightly classed by all who have resorted
to this unequalled vegetable Invlgorant and' cor?
rective, among the most extraordinary therapeu?
tic wonders of modern times. It should be taken
at this season as a safeguard against the epidemic
diseases which are so apt to attack the relaxed
system in the rall of the year.
As it is understood that mercenary speculators
in various parts of the country are endeavoring
to supersede the standard tonic of the age with
worthless articles manufactured by themselves,
which they represent to be superior to this long
tried remedy, lt ls proper to put the public on
their guard against this species of imposition,
and to warn them against the deleterious trash
with which dishonorable dealers seek to drench
them._augio-flnac
