THE ATTEMPTED MEETING? OE THECITY COUNCIL.

In consequence- of » faok of a quorum theregular meeting of tho City Council was notheld last night.Eight o dock ia the time appointed for the

meetings, and at that hour Aldermen E. W. M.Mackey, T. J. Mackey, D. Barrow, J. F.Greene, Thorne, L. F. Wall, E. P. Wall andHampton, the last four colored, were assem¬bled around the board.Tho four colored men clustered together in

the oentre of the board, and were entertainedin conversation by Aldermen E. W. M. Mackey.Alderman T. J. Maikey amused himself bywriting on a large sheet of paper, what after¬ward was ascertained to be a ticket for cityofficers. Thia paper he passed baok and forthto bis white and colored friends, explaining tothem where tho joke lay, doing so until eaohand every one "saw" it.Thus the time passed. The fifteen minutes

allowed by the ordinance to elapse before tb?meeting can expire by default, dragged slowlyby, but the Mayor came not. In five minutesmore he did, however, and cailed the meetingto order.The derk called the roll, and those above

mentioned, eight in number, answered.The Mayor. There being no quorum pres¬

ent, I'll hear a motion to adjourn.Alderman Barrow. I move that the Board

adjourn until Tuesday night next.The Mayor. I'll hear a motion to adjourn.E. P. Wall (colored.) I move we adjourn,

subject to tbe call of the Mayor.Alderman Barrow. My motion was seconded.The Mayor. I am not entertaining motions

to adjourn to a fixed time.Alderman Greene. I seconded his (Bar¬

row's) motion.Alderman Barrow. I do not see how yon

can entertain one motion to adjourn and notanother. He then read a role from Jefferson'sManual regarding the adjournment of meetingsto a given irme, and claimed that the rule ap.plied in this case.The Mayor. That rule only governs legisla¬

tive bodies, and not this Council. The onlymotion I can entextain is one to adjourn. Asthere is no motion to that effect I now adjournCouncil.The Mayor then arose and was leaving the

chamber, when Alderman T. J. Mackeyjumpedto his seat and said, in s sarcastic tone: I regretthat you have left the chair eo abruptly, as Ihave a tioket for city officers to present, madeup from your known personal friends.This announcement occasioned a great deal

of amusement, and a large number of persons,who are known to have "an eye to offios" and"hopos," gathered«round bim to look over thepaper which the Alderman freely displayed.Conspicuous among this crowd, was the nan¬keen-colored office-hunter DeLarge, who voci¬ferously requested a copy for the AfricanMissionary.The Mayor, who had only turned to look at

Alderman Mackey when he addressed him,had, by this time, lett the chamber.Alderman Barrow. I move that Alderman

L. F. Wall take the chair and adjourn theBoard properly.

Wall, colored, arising, and with an unnaturaldignity, said: I'decline.Alderman Barrow. 1 mean Alderman E. P.

Wall.E. P. Wall, colored. I enjoy a good joke, bat

I will not be made a clown of in such a farce asls being enacted here. [Laughter. ]Alderman T. J. Mackey. It is not neoebsary

that any Alderman should take the chair. Imove that the Council adjourn, to meet on

Tuesday night next.He then put the motion, whioh was carried.Council then adjourned.The ticket which Alderman Mackey wished

to introduco is as follows :For City Inspector-Captain Joseph H.

Jenks, late Cashier Freedmen's Savings Bank.For City Attorney-Hon. D. T. Corbin, Uni¬

ted States Attorney.For City Treasurer-Hon. D. T. Corbin, StateSenator.For City Registrar-Hon. D. T. Corbin, Lieu¬

THAT PAVEMENT ENTIBELY UHITECESSABT.-The petition, which THU MEWS of Monday lastmentioned as being in circulation among thefrequenters of the courthouse.aud other build¬ings in the vicinity of Broad and Meetingstreets, to get Council to pave that sectionwith a newly patented pavement, is we learn,being energetically pushed forward, the mov¬ers claiming that the noise from passing vehi¬cles interrupts tho business of tho courts, andthat the sawdust whioh was laid down tb dead¬en the noise blows in their own and everybodyelse's eyes. As we have said before, the citycoffers are nbt in a condition to have this workdone at present, and, besides, there are otherstreets that sadly need paving, and should re¬ceive attention first. Fdr instance, King-street,on which hearty all of the retail trade of thecity is transacted. The judges,'jurymen, law¬yers and others will have to bear with thenoise for awhile longer, snd if the sawdust, willpersist in blowing into their eyes, they carahave it removed altogether.INTEBnflTING EXEBOISEB ot THE SUHDAY

SIONS-HON. R. B. CARPENTER, I'QESIDINO.-The case of the State vs. Gabriel Levy, indict¬ment for murder, was up for trial. The cir-sumstances, as developed by the evidence, are

briefly these:Ou the 25th of September, 1868, the prisoner

and deceased were at work upon the plantationof Dr. 13 u kcr on Cooper River, about fourteenmiles from the city. A dispute "occurred be¬tween the prisoner and ono Robin Steward,which was afterwards interfered in by the de¬ceased. After daring the prisoner to oome outon the bank, the deceased assaulted him. Theprisoner did not return the assault at first, butupon its being continued, picked up a paddlein an adjoining canoe and hit the deceasedupon the head; that before being separated,the prisoner and deceased resumed the work,and that on the next day Richard Nesbitt died.After the examination of the testimony,

John A. Moroso, Esq., opened for the defence.He oontended^hat even if the death resultedfrom the blows ae alleged, the circumstances ofthe case deprived it of its oriminal nature, andmade it a case of hortic ¡de se defendeudo-thatthe prisoner inflicted the blow under the im¬pression that he was about to receive greatbodily harm, and only after having retreated.He demanded a verdict of acquittal for theprisoner.Attorney-General Chamberlain then address¬

ed the jury in reply. He contended that theright of self-defence was undenied, but that itshould be only exercised in a reasonable man¬ner, and that the infliction of tho blow was thepromptings of malice, and that the jury werebound to convict of murder or manslaughter.G. H. Sass, Esq., closed the argument in be¬

half of the defence. He contended, first, thatthere was an absence of malice necessary tomake it murder; second, that it was not in evi¬dence that the death resulted from the blow,and that, even admitting that, under ail thecircumstances, it was a case of justifiable hom¬icide.His Honor the Judge charged the jury that

under the -evidence they were bound to roturaa verdict of murder or manslaughter.The jory after an absence of some hours,

returned a verd'ot of "Guilty of manslaughter."The State vs. Harriet Maxwell-Indictment

for larceny; E. S. Thariu, Esq., for the defence."Guilty."The State vs. Primus Vine-Larceny under

the Statute. R. S. Tharin, Esq., for the defence.The Court was occupied in this case up to
