who found themselves mounted upon a pair of j
spirited animals, on Sunday, Indulged m an ex

seized by a policeman and they ??jere reported at
thc Guardhouse, and brought before, the Mayor
yesterday morning. A ine ol $5 ?as* was Im?
posed and paid. ^
SENT TO JAIL.-Alexander Pinekney and Eli
Evans, the colored Juvenile* who unhung each i
pair of boots in front of a st? e In Market street,
and were arrested tn King street, wero brough
before Trial Justice Schroder, yesterday afternoon,
for trial. The offence or vagrancy -was added to
their ch arg-, and after a trial, the boots matter
was dropped, and the two were sent to jail for
fifteen days each under the vrgrant law.
A BOY-STIROUS PROCEEDING.-0I Sunday
night, two roysteriug blades floated through a
certain neighborhood and knocked at the door of
a Mary Brown. Having company, she refu-ed to
admit them, whereupon one of them, who seemed
to have been made of wood, rushed against the
door and broke it down. They then entered and
raised a Jolly row on the premises. A poUceman,
being called, arrested the party, and they were
tried next morning. Tbeinost belligerent of the
two was fined $5.
A CASE OF GOUGING.-Joseph. Porter made
his appearance yesterday morning in the office
of Trial Justice Mackey," with hil face much
bruised and his eye mangled in a horrible man?
ner and almost excavated. He deposed that on
Sttuday evening he was assaulted wbUe walking
peaceably''on the street, by H. O'Brien, without
any cause, and struck several times In the eye
and face. A warrant was issued agalust thc of?
fender, who, having been arrested, was bound
over for trial to-day. lt is thought that the pros?
ecutor will lose hts eye, as his antagonist's fin?
gers pierced deep and almost completed their
work.
Ax APPEAL TO ARMS.-After nu me roes goes
at a bar-room at the corner or East Bay an i El?
liott street, on Saturday night, Jack Heins, who
was taking his pleasure, became entangled in aa
argument with the barkeeper. After some dis
cusslon the latter became angry, and Jack got In?
sulting, when the barkeeper whipped out from
behind the counter a wicked locking pistol, about
the size of a mountain howitzer, and made in
1773. Jack subsided as he gazed into-tho bottom?
less muzzle and, going out, called the police. The
two were arrested, aud the barkeeper having de?
posited $10 for his appearance, was released.
Jack remained, and. aftera trial before the Mayor,
was discharged, while his. antagonist never came
to u-mi hts deposit, which was declared forfeited.
-TUE CATHOLIC ORPHAN ASYLUM.-lu the
sketch of Charles) on contained in the premium
hst of the South Carolina Institute, issued last
fall, tt ls stated that the mansion formerly occu?
pied by Governor Alston, in Meeting street, "is
no*.? occupied as a Catholic colored orphan asy?
lum." As every one knows, the excellent and
well managed seminary so spoken of ls not a
'.colored'' asylum at ali, and we regret to learn
that What was an error, to be excused by the short?
ness of thc time allowed for the preparation of |
tljp sketch, has been regarded as an intentional
slur upon the good sisters, and upon the institu?
tion in their charge. We have knowledge of thc
fact*, aud are certain that the misstatement was
a pure oversight. We may add that the writer or
the sketch ts wholly iucapabte or making any in?
tentional misstatement; or of making any sug?
gestion which would be painful to any class of
our citizens.
THE WORKING PEOPLE'S CHURCH.-We are
informed that the religions exercises of the Rut?
ledge Avenue Mission Chut ch, on last Sunday,
were of tho most interesting character. Rev.
Addison HaH, of Virginia, preached in the morn?
ing a most Impressive sermon, from the text,
"They were first called Christians at Antioch."
The little flock, now uniting to form a church,
were much encouraged by this able discourse.
They had fitted up a small but commodious hired
room, on the avenue, just above Spring street,
and this sermon, from the venerable visitor, was
exceedingly appropriate. In '.he afternoon the
Sunday-school met in the same room for the first
time, and in the evening the room was ailed to its
utmost by an eager congregation, mostly of the
laboring classes, to whom the pastor. Kev. Mr.
Galues, preached on the subject of the final Judg?
ment. We are requested to state that Christians
and strangers, especially of the laboring classe?,
temporarily residing lu the city, are Invited to
attend this church on Sundays. Services are held
at half-past io o'clock, A. M., and quarter-past 7
P. M., every Sabbath. Sundav-school at 3 P. M.

J. White, J. D. Aiken, A. ?. Johnston.
The subjoined report of the president and
directors of the company was submitted to the
meeting, and ordered to be published in the dally
papers of the city.
PRESIDENTS REPORT,
The president and directors of the Charleston
Gaslight Company respectfully submit to the
stockholders their twenty-third annual report.
The manufacture of gas for the year ending Gist
December, 1ST0, amounted to 50,834,756 cubic feet,
and the distribution to-W,898,400 cubic feet, show?
ing an in. rease over the previous year of about 17
per cent.
The quantity er coal carbonized In the manufac?
ture or the gas was 5084 toms, against 4261 tons
the previous year. The average yield of gas per
pound of coal for uro was 4 oa-ioo cable feet, and
for 1889 4 53-100 cubte feet.
The very full report of the- engineer, which ac?
companies this, gives m detall a statement of the
business In his department during the year. In
the metre department therejhave been 650 metres
recasetfahd repaired, and 193 new metres bought,
in the service department 144 new services have
been run, 39 .extended, and 739 examined-of |
which 286 required to be renewed, and 453 re?
paired.
The st. eet mains have been examined In vari?
ous localities, and the repairs necessary done to
them.
The treasurer's statement (Appendix A) shows
the financial condition of the company to bc as
follows on the 31 st December, 1870 :
Liabilities. .$809,883 32
Assets.$787,337 33
Cash. 12,550 99- S09,S3S 32

Deduct three dividends. 46.U9C oo
Balance. $24,408 41
The bonds of the company, given lu settle?
ment of the'Interest on the shtires held by North?
ern stockholders, which had been confiscated by
the Confederate Government, and after the war
restored to those stockholder*, were payable in
New York on the 1st of JannaL-y, 1871. and provis?
ion, out ot the earnings of the company, ha; >"*en
made to meet both the principal and luferest.
amounting to $15,525.
During the year three dividends have been de?
clared. The om issi'm of a dividend in April arose
from prudential considerations. The city lradre?
c?ntly assessed a very large amount, In the form
of a tax, upon the company, and the directors
were not unmlndfal that the bonds referred
above would have to bc provided ror bc-for? che
close of the year. With these facta before them,
and with a business, a large portion or wu tel for-,
the year had yet to-ie developed, the directors
were of opinion that no other course was open to-1
them. '
To meet the deroand caused by thc Increased
consumption of gast?is winter up to Hie present
tune, has taxed the capacity-of the works to their
urmrst, and they wonidVlfe unequal, without en
largement, to supply a sim&af increase next sea
son. Such an Increase lt is not unreasonable to
expect, and the contingency should bo provided
for. Thc engineer, in his report, refers to th
necessity or takiug down the old even and rc
torts and replacing them by new ones; and he
suggests thc equal necessity of enlarging the con
nectlons throughout the works. These Improve
ments should be accomplished during the ensuing
j summer.
j The Mayor's annual report to Council, present
! ed on the loth of January last, eontalus the fol
lowing paragraph :
# MOOTING TUE STREETS.
The city is but Imperfectly Illuminated. There
were, original! v. over :welve hundred lamps,
?bout halt of which are now in use. Tue number
has been much Increased during the year past, as
the necessity seemed to require, but with uo
diminution IU the price, which is stl'l $4i> per year
for each lamp. More light has been deemed ex?
tremely desirable, lt would not only conduce-1
greatly to thc comfo-t and convenleuce of the in?
habitants, but lt would alford additional safety to
life aud property. To this end, a proposition waa
made to the Ga's Company, at a conference hc:d
by Its committee with the committee of Cuuncil
on l?htlug thc streets, to light the eutne city,
and at a rate which was deemed equitable, inas?
much as it was quite equal to that paid by any
other city, aud above that paid by some even of
our neighboring citk-a. But their counter pru
postilions were deemed so extravagantes to mala*
lt evident that ihev considered themselves
nionopol*. lt, therefore, became almost a qu-s
Iiou oi morals, whether to regard the monopoly,
and let thc people have light, or u> discard it,
and keep the people in darkuess. At any rate,
the conference ended without result, and no sub?
sequent negotiations have been attempted.
With a concurrence of opinion with the Mayor
on the advantages of increased light, and with a
knowledge ol the importance of economy in the
financial arrangements of the city, the directors
do not admit any responsibility on their part for
the alleged failure of thc desired Increase of light.
On the conirar?, Hw desire on the part of Council
was promptly met, ind In a spirit which- thc di?
rectors, after'full ou si deration, deemed liberal.
The meeting ref* ired to by the Mayor was held
on the 3d of September, 1869, upon lils own invita?
tion, and thc Inquiry was made at what price thc
Gas Company would light all the lamps In the city
-1250 In number. The Gas Compaiy*e committee
offered to light all at $33 per lamp for thc year.
The Miyorsald that ir the offer were made $35,
the price paid before the war, his committee would
report the same and recommend to Council to
light the entire number at that price. The reply
made to this was that the Gas Company, in nam?
ing $38, had made an offer as low as lt could
afford, and that it was c jmparatively lower than
tho price paid before the war, Inasmuch as the
currency had depreciated upwards of 30 per ce at.,
and the cost of manufacture increased in the same
ratio. The liberality of the offer will at oDce be
understood, if the amount $JS be reduced to its
gold value, (that in which the price was '.aid be?
fore the war,) which would be abont twpnty-nlne)|
dollars, ($29,) six dollars (JO) less per l imp than
that paid before the war.
The result of the conference was thu' the Coun?
cil's committee would take the offer .nto consid?
eration, aud when they had come tr a determina-.
Hon upon lt, that they would rep jw the confer?
ence. Since that time the Co '.uctl's committee
have made no cummmiicatioa to the Gas Com-,
pany's committee upou the subject.
The Mayor's reference to the rate of lighting in
other cities is not si rielly appropriate, as the cost
of manufacture of tin gas, the ownership of
posts, lanterns, service pipes, the expens; of re?
pairs, and the respoustbtlity and expense of
lighting and extinguishing, varies in dioerent
elites, aud Hie rate of meeting these incidents de?
pends upon the facts in each case. Da this city
the Gas Company ls the owner, and bears all the
expense aud the responsibility. The city is re?
lieved of all trouble and responsibility in these
matters, its ouly care is to meet the bills under
its contract.
The Mayor further-sutes ','that the number (of
lamp-) has been much iucreased during the year
past, as the necessity seemed to require, but with
no diminution ia'the price," Ac
On the 1st January,' 1870, the number lighted
was.,..,,,... *...,.523
On the 1st January, 1871, the number lighted
was. -.;...553
Increase in theyear...*. 30
In reply to the Mayor's allegation that the Gas
Conn-any evidently considered itself a monopoly,
the following facts are presented: At thecloscof
ilia war. wueu the consumption was small, and
the leakage, in consequence of the Impaired con?
dition of lue m?l s. considerable, the charge ror
gas was Sloper 1000 cubic feet. As this evil was
partially remedien, tne price was reduced io $8.
and us further Improvement was made to $7, then
to $6, then to $5. and lastly to $4. This action
was pore y voluntan-, and arose from adesire on
the part of the directors to place the patrons of
thecompany on ih.-most favorable footing prac?
ticable. In conclusion, we beg to state, Hut now,
as heretofore, the G is Company's committee is
ready to meet tue OmraciPa committee whenever
ic may sui< them to appmat a time. ?
Alt of which la respectfully submitted.

UP IS A BALLOON ANO DOWN AOAIN.-At one
o'clock yesterday afternoon an Immense crowd
gathered at thc Citadel Creen to witness the
grand bailo iii ascension. The huze machine was
made of yellow cloth, and win n inilated was
ninety feet high. Alter being thoroughly Ulled
with hot air it was cntiooseand rose with great
rapidity. A large diamond shaped black patch
wa< plainly visible on the side of Die balloon where
lt had beeu patched. The hurraing und excite?
ment were tictneudous as the daring xronaut as?
cended swiftly to a height of a mlle or more, and
floated In a southerly direction over the city.
When over Beautatn street lt was apparent that
there was something rottca In Denmark, for the
balloon began to descend at a fearful rate", in?
creasing in velocity as lt approached the ground.
The ?eronaut did not lose his preseuce of mind,
but WOB seen manipulating his fixtures and pre?
paring for his strike. The huge machine fortu?

at th? corner or Franklin and Quten streets,

streets in the vicinity were lined with the hurry?
ing crowd, and around the balloon a dense
throng of thousands or persons collected, lt was
lound that the balloon had batst In the black
patch, and the sudden escape ot the hot air oc?
casioned the Lurried descent. The yelling and
coufusion that uow ensued were im'.escrlbable.and
lt is only wonderful ?hat the balloon was not torn
to pieces by the excited crowd, who all wanted tc
feel lt. The whole affair was quickly taken ti
pieces, however, by the skilful workmen, aud
carried off to the Citadel, leaving trie excited

Tribute of Respect.
The melancholy duty ls ours on this occasion to
offer a tribute of respect to the memory of a de?
parted associate, and to extend to his bereaved
family our heartfelt condolence.
Since the last meeting of our society our wor
chy and esteemed ex-president, Thomas J. Knanff,
ia the prime of his life, and at the zenith of his
usefulness, bas been removed from the busy
scenes of this world to enter upon the realities of
another, and we humbly trust a better, state of
existence.
Our lamented friend b came a member of this
Society in April, I?3. We can all bear testimony
to the devotion which he exhibited for the pro.
motion of pa interests and the object of its benefi?
cent organization. In bli death-we mourn the
lews of a genial, alnoere friend, a reliable, confid?
ing companion, a generous, energetic member.
Thc decree of au nil-wise Providence has re?
moved him from this sphere ol usefulness. IC
only remains for us to unite iu a grateful tribute
to his memoiy, and to bow with submission to thc
Divine will;-be lt therefore
Resolwd, That by the death of ex-president
Thomas J. Knanff, this society has lost an effi?
cient, worthy and respected member, who de?
served, as he also possessed, our personal esteem,
and whose early and unexpected death creates a
void that will be long aud sadtv fe.r.
Resolved, Hint hts name be recorded on a blank
page of our mluute book, and that a copy of this
preamble and resolutions bo transmitted by our
secretary to the bereaved family of the deceased.
Resolve*. That this testimonial be published In
