At a meeting held in the afternoon at which very member in arrears of dues was required to settle up. the members almost! - i a man liquidated his dues, and twenty j : -arnew members were admitted, bring- j ^ mau <>i tup company up to j ? nchundred men. In the afternoon, ac-i ompannd by tl?c Hook and Ladder[ onipany the Union Co. paraded the | ? tee's, with every tnan at the rope, the ? gine and truck being handsomely iloc? <ated with flowers and flags, and preoe? rl ny tlie Band. As they marched 1 * rough the streets they presented n fine! : .opearar.ee and were greeted with cheers j 5 the crowds that had gathered to wit-1 j ss tlie proccs'-ion. Never have we seen j .ir.er body of men, nor so many, attach* to one engine company, and the citiz - a of Beaufort may well feci proud of Un*.i No 1, and rely on their prompt; iponee to the cry of fire. | n the evening, by invitation, a large! aber of our citizens gathered w it It the < >pnny around a bountifully spread ;e in the Arsenal. Tiie table w is set * . one hundred and was twice filled by - >?e anxious to show their love for the] ? mpnr.v by their attention to the tempting j sin's which were so lavishly furnished, j s -.1 we noticed that the punch bowl had ; be so often replenished that the coun-i i ancc 01 me vy. u. of Good Templars ; - .pant near it wore an expression ol j i row and regret, but we were afraid it i * s grief at his not lieing permitted to' j n the throng who continually cried for \ z re. *'/b?n the members and guests had 1 llj retired from the table, J-t. Gov. ? avep, Foreman of the company, mount 1 the rostrum and nnnounccd that the i. -ic had now come for a flow of soul: s d If the distinguished guests were ready they wotiid bo gladly listened to. Calls' -re made first for Robert Snmlls who | a is informed by the chairman that he - ottld be required to make a speech, sing j i vmg or whistle. Mr. Smalls said that. . e people of Beaufort had often heard | 1 im speak but hud never heard him sing,' i :d he presumed tli?t ?>?.?? iU l i 1 1 v..* j fuvugoi' rrtr * uld not sing, and to disprove this f ilsc , tion ho thereupon gave them "Kitty ? 'ydc"' and the "Bloom ci1' in each aft'ueti 3 styles as to call die liou.c to the ut. oat <joiet, bat which wan made up Uy v.rre cheers and a tiger aa bo modestly rei rtd. Solicitor Wiggin was called, and t .^thoroughly eulogized tbo company sa to t ake it cinlaraMing fcr try of hit sac iwors to touch oa the theme, as the i ; mud w>i? tntirtly cc rore 1.

JSamuiy Grci n spoke of the efficiency of the company nml bis own inn I'oiiily to d-> justice on the occ:isi"ii to their many virtues, and came verv near ' putting hi i foot in it by o.vpres-ing a hope that when their fire d.utits in this world were over that they would become ' so efficient at a fire that ?ft< r death they would receive their rewnnl and he ablo ' to do their tint ies without a presiding ofli , nr. but what that duty was he di<!*not ' state and he le ft the audience to infer that ! lie bclcived in fire companies in the gieat l hiicaftir. ,1. P. Iloyce acknowledged : the superiority iT the material of the Union ' ' over his own Co. and in regard 'o mnki ing a speci li he ndmititd he had lain cought out on a fly anil so passed the ball to George Holmes, who had nivirsecn such a finely equipped company and who i assured the members that they had the' good wishes of all citizens for their future prosperity. Gabriel Parker, foreman of the Ifook ( and Ladder company, attributed the i good condition of the Union to the cner- i gy and untiring efforts of their able fore- I i j man and lie hoped that the fire Co would j he off duty in the next world. Rev. Mr i : Chavis spoke next and was followed by 1 I our ponderous post master who, not to be i I behind Mr. Smalls, sang in a most i , touching style, that Sunday school hymn i (entitled the "Yellow Girl." Even the I j Baud laid a side their horns and wept at t j the sad fate of the girl. Mr. Gage was t j proud of the parade today, felt proud of c them before, but was not a bit proud of \ them since they bad called en him to' t speak, sing or whistle. Mr. Gilbert ap j .1 'peared and was followed l>v R. J. Mar- j tin Esq. who having been called away j 11 to look after the roads along the Atlantic <. coast and having been led on codfish on r the inhospitable shores of Bay point felt | t himself unable to make a point and so s was allowed to point to his seat. t Several speeches were made by other? t including Mr. Carlton, Mr C. II. Wiight t Tom Hamilton, A. G. Thomas, P. \V. e Sehrper and others. The entertainment , ^ closed by a few happy K maiks by Ft re- : man Gleavcs on thut most important si theme, >Vonrai: 1 Taken alt' get her the j | occasion was very pleasant, every one i < seeming to enjoy the music the songs and ! o speeches, and most of ihcin feeling as Mr ) c Wheeler said that he felt, that he *honld \ never more be hungry again, that he wa* ' even so full that he could look with scorn on his hoarding house keeper, uiul such punch 1-wcll, at eleven o'cloc k ihe c<.nip-! , any, with cheers for (lie Union Engine 1? Co. No 1, and its able Foreman R. II. j ^ Cleaves, departed, hoping that such j | occasions may occur often, and that they i ,, might he there to see. I v Lditor Trihvn*. ! 1 I was amused yester- ! * day at an article from tlie Orangeburg j corrcsjiondent cf the JYctr.t uikI Courier, ] which among other things, purported to; give the sentiment < xpressed by W. J. Whipper at the recent emancipation eel-! ^ ebra'ion in that place, lie is quoted as j breathing anathemas against^ "Carpet I baggers."' ii Now we would like to inquire, Mr. Ed- j ? itor, who Mr. Whipper is? First, is lie ai native of thi*, or any other southern Stale? (j Second if not "to the manor born, p does his complexion make him any the . less a "carpet bagger"'than on unlbrtu I *' natc white man who is not a native? Mr. Whipper's advent in this community ; , nn<i liis subsequent career have not, I am j .( sure entitled him to pass judgment upon j j others whose record is certainly as good * I as his own, and he would do well to hear! ^ in mind that "People who have the mis- j v fortune to reside in houses ot glass should ; { exercise caution where they throw stones.'11 Carpet Hanger. | Aug. C 187.",. I a THE TOWN COUNCIL. ! u I o; The council which has controlled our 1 town affairs for the past year held their ei last meeting Thursday evening hist. It s? was made the occasion ot some parting tl remarks that reminded us of an old fash- ii ioncd love-feast where nil forgive and S and forget, embrace and promise r< to always tread in the ways of the good, I and like good little children to love one, ,] another. tj Mr. Mayo proposed that Wiialcn s| Gleaves he chosen to give the parting | h address, hut as he was elected a mciiihcr h of the t;cw cot ncil and therefore not <] among the "outs11 he thought it more p appropriate for some retiring member to ? take tho tloor, however, he said, he was u not pr< p:ir< d to speak hut would say that , < wu: ouioorng council find done its duty ' ? as far as they were nl?le: but all men arc liable to err, and while in seme tilings tliey 1 may have erred, they had certainly dnnej v mur.h toi the good of the town. 'i hev I' had shown to the public that they were lib- " eral and that the town's int< rest was what ' all had striven to serve, and whatever 1 dissensions may have occurred in the court " cil chamber, the ntcinhcrs have always v met as Iriende elsewhere, lie was glad to know that the finances of the town ? heel been honestly managed. The reftorls ' Of tbe Inteudant and town treasurer, both f quarterly and annual, hadprovtd correct | and tbe books and paper* matly and!1 systematically kepr. Ea< U of the fttht r 1 'd a<dens in turn arc,, o and jarai hia ex T ^ .J ~ ' piriencc. nil trusting tlint tluir ueee?or> would prove to the people thnf the town was in good hands and that the now council might I o as harmonious and work together tor tl?c public weal as has the uM. Tin* Intemhiiit returned thank* lor tin: aid and < ncourrgnnent of the vent- oil. aval whatever opposition he had n:ct with lie laid chanty mough to heHi vc that the good of the town only was what actuated tlio.-c who differed with him. The clerk then administered the oath to the Intendant, and the old council having fitcped elown and out, His Honor swore in the new members, and for the first time in a year tiic town of Ilcaufort had a full council. Previous to the above changes being made the committee on accounts reported as ilisappiovcd the bills of Joseph Cohen for cluitmd as due him for balance of salary us constable, ami the bill of (Irace Myers for $8.50 for boarding "a man,*' which were referic<l to tlie new council for consideration. The bill of J. C. Mayo for disinfectants was also referred to the new council. The finance committee reported that they had examined the annual repot of the Intendant, and the quarterly and annual reports of the town treasurer and found them all correct. Mr. McGill moved that the new council be notified of tlicir election and be requested to be present at the next meeting, but this was considered as lackiig thickness, as the newly elected were ill present, anxious and ready to shoulder the town then and there. After the inluguration. on motion of Mr. Cleaves, he second and fourth Wednesdays in tach month were selected as days tor rcgllar meetings, 'the Intendant stated hat the first duty of council was to elect i clerk and treasurer, but on motion of ilr. Gage the election was postponed till icxt meeting or until a clerk should be lent eel, and by vote of council the tresis* irer and marshal were requested to fill heir respective cilices till sin election houhl take pi sice. Mi Gage considered he ordinance < renting the office of town . r.usurer - defective, and he gave no ice of an iirdiii-ii>' A f"- 1 - ' . v |?| 1 iii- i'll 111-111 <1 Krk and other employees.

The j cause of the unfortunate a Hair seems to have been a threat on the part of Weston , to cut the throat of a child of Bennett's, who was informed of the threat by Frederick Garvin, and the two thereupon started down the road after Weston, who, when overtaken bad a large knife in his1 band. Bennett then raised his gun and I shot Weston who died the following |U morning.
