Rendered wild by this performance, the animal, a hnndsome short tall bay, tore down Calhoun and Meeting, streets in a most reckless manner and at a terrific pace. The way was cleared in fine style before him, and, thinking of his accustomed stand, the horse broke through Hasel street and attempted to turn down King ' The impetus carried him over on the sidewalk where he rushed along to the alarm and con? siderable danger of a number ol ladies. In his course, however, he encountered a gentle? man, who, with much presence of mind caught the rein, and by the exercise of some mu cle speedily arrested the headlong career of the maddened beast. The captive was led to the Guardhouse, where he was soon claimed by the driver and delivered over. The wagon was loaded with coke and did not suffer any "**exten?lve damage. MEETING OF THE BOARD OF TRADE. A regular meeting of the Board of Trade was held last evening at their rooms, Presi? dent H. H. DeLeon in the chair. Letters of application for membership from Messrs. B. F. Simmons and E. A. Marshall were read and laid over until the next regular meeting. The executive committee stated, th at they had submitted the communication from the Board of Tmde of Talladega, in relation to the Geoigla Western Bailroad, to a special com? mittee who would report at the next meeting. The committee on the cotton tax reported through their chairman, Mr. W. S. Hastie, by a memorial, as follows : To the Honorable the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States: The Board of Trade of the City of Charles? ton, South Carolina, respectfully represent to your honorable bodies That the termination of the late unpleasant contest lett the State of South Carolina in a most deplorable state ol poverty and destitu? tion, from which she has not .yet recovered. A portion of her citizens still hold their lands, I but without the Immediate means of culti? vating them. Some hold cotton, a portion of which was seized under military orders, and the balance, together with the fruits of ber subsequent industry, were subjected to the tax under the laws of Congress of 30th. June, 1864, 13th July, 1866, and 2d of March, 1867. .This tax on cotton your memorialists be? lieve to be unconstitutional, lt being declared In Article first, section ninth of the Constitu? tion ot the United States, that * No tax or duty shall be laid on articles exported from any State." The great market which controls the price of our cotton is Liverpool. England. - Our cot? ton there meets In competition with that raised in India, South America, and all portions ol the globe, where the article is grown, and no tax paid by us in the United States adds one fraction to the value of cotton in market, thus placing the tax entirely upon the producer. Again, the constitution declares .'All du'les, imposts, and excises, shall be unilorm throughout the United States." We beg leave to call the attention of Con? gress to the fact, that cotton ls produced In only eleven States of this Union. Your memorialists believe firmly that no Republican Government can permanently ex? ist unless founded upon Justice, purity and honor, and we believe that the unlortunate departure of Congress frorr the constitution, in imposing the cotton to:>, has bad a most demoralizing effect upon some ot our State Governments, who, contrary to all law, "are ?arasElng our people and eating out our sub? stance." . Your memorialists earnestly ask Congress to refund the cotton tax, which, In the end, will redound to the Interest ol the United States. It will stimulate the production of cotton, by throwing capital Into the Southern States where lt is so much needed, and where the Interest on money rules at so high a rate as to be almost ruinous to the planter. It will once more give us the control ef the cotton market of the world. Large crops will bring low prices, but the plauter will live within himself, and raise food which he now pur? chases. Our railroads will flourish, employing large numbers ot our people, and as carriers of our own produce across the Ocean, an im? mense American mercantile marin? .'must spring up, which will aealube the pride and glory of our country. WILLIAM S. HASHE, J. B. E. SLOAN, WILLIAM GURNEY. On motion, the report was adopted an i nr- , deredtobe forwarded to Congress with the seal of the beard attached. The Board then resolved itself Into a com? mittee of the whole, and Mr. W. S. H tb tb having been called to the chair, the fol) J wing amendments to the constitution and by-laws . were passed: . First, Enabling the Board to re-e'.ect a pres- , dent and vice-president. Second. Making a quorum to consist of ten instead of fifteen members as heretofore. Third. Striking out the claus? making lt Im? perative that persona should be "engaged In actual mercantile pursuits" to become mem? bers of the board. * Fourth. Making Ave black balls sufficient to exclude an applicant Instead ol ten as here? tofore. The president thea resumed th? cbati , and having heard tho report of the chairman of the whole, announced that the amendments recited had received their first reading, and would be brought up at the next meeting for final adoption. ? , The president having upon call made a statement of? the financial condition of the Board, Hr. Marshall offered the following reso tlon, which was adopted : Resol>>ed\ That a committee of nine be ap? pointed to take into consideration the finan? cial condition of the. Board, and to suggest such measures as they may .deem best .to pay the present debt, and -that said committee re? port to an adjourned meeting of this Board,, to be held on Wednesday night. On motion of Mr. John S. Fairly, the follow? ing resolution was adopte d: Resolved, That a committee of Ave memters be appointed by the president to consider and report to the Board, at Its adjourned meeting on Wednesday next, the best measures to op? pose the effort now being made to induce Congress to remove the duty on foreign rice. The Board then adjourned until Wednesday next. _^ CAUGHT NAPPING._AL a late hour on Tues? day night.
