The South Carolina leaves this morning with a very good freight, for the Bay and intermediate landings. The river has swollen very much since yesterday morning, and now covers the lower wharf. We fear, however, it will not remain full for any length of time, as the clouds have disappeared, and the wind is blowing a cool north-wester. Correction. An officer of the Columbus Guards call ed on us yesterday, and requested us to correct an error in our statement in re gard to the number of guns which missed fire on the 17th inst., in his Company.— He asserts there were only four which missed fire, which, after being pricked and re-capped, were fired off. We were not on the same grouud as the Guards, but from our position we should have very certainly testified to ten at least. That, however, is a matter of very little conse quence, and we cheerfully give them the benefit of a denial. City Council. At the meeting of this body on Monday night, bids were opened for supplying the city with lumber, for feeding the bands and mules, and for lighting and keeping in order the city lamps for the ensuing year. For furnishing lumber two bids were made, as follows: Lynch & Pye, per 1000 feet $9.90. Wm. Brooks, per 100 feet 94. Mr. Brooks’ bid being the lowest, was received. For feeding the hands and mules, there were two bidders : James M. Hughes pro posed to take the hands at $7, and the mules at sll per month. G. W. Haynes proposed to take the hands at $7.50, and the mules at $11.50. Mr. Hughes’ being tho lowest bid, was accepted. At this point Alderman Urquhart sug gested that the award be conditional, as he desired to seo the hands and carts re duced to only two for scavenger purposes. For the work to be done on the streets and ditches, he thought a much cheaper plan could be adopted of letting out by contract, and proposed to submit a plan at the next meeting for the consideration of Council. He thought from $3,000 to $3,500 could in this way be saved to the treasury, and at the same time get the work much better done. Alderman McKendree remarked that a condition was not needed, as tho contract to feed was of itself conditional. The contractor agreed to feed tho hands and mules, which embraced such number only as the city might have in use, be that more or less. The gas bids were then taken up, and the following bids were read, to-wit:— Wm. Degnan, $500; J. Wilhelm, $500; Thomas McAlister, $400; James Jemison, $200; IV. Kirkland, S3OO for lighting, or $350 for lighting and supplying glass to tho broken lights in the lamps. It was suggested by several members, that in considering the bids for this ser vice, it was proper for the Council, in de termining that which would be cheapest to the city, to look to the qualification of the contractor to keep the lamps in re pair. This being agreed to, they pro ceeded to award, taking up tho lowest first. The contract was awarded to J. Wilhelm. The resolution adopted at the last meeting, authorizing the Committee to con summate and sign the contract with W. F. Serrcll and others, was called up and recousidered. Alderman McKendree was asked if tho Committee appointed to confer with the charterers ou the matter of tho new bridge, was ready to report. He replied they were not; but that they should make a definite report at the next meeting of the Council. Alderman Kivlin offered a resolution to suspend, for tho Christmas holidays, the ordinaoco now in force prohibiting tho firing of crackers west of Broad street. Alderman Croft offered as a substitute to Alderman Kivliu’s resolution, a resolu tion to prohibit the firing of crackers or any other species of fire works within the city for two weeks. Both the substitute and original reso lution were voted down. It was remarked by some member that an ordinance was already in force, pro hibiting the firing of every species of fire works except crackers, within tho city, and that crackers were prohibited west of broad street, under a penalty of five dol lars for each and every offence. Alderman King observed that this or dinance had on that evening been disre- garded ; that crackers had been fired that I evening on Front street, in front of two Warehouses, and no police could bo found to suppress it. Ho said ho occupied a position to feel great interest in the mat ter ; thousands of dollars worth of proper ty in his charge was endangered, and he felt he had a right to ask and receivo protection. And in order to prevent a repetition of what had occurred that eve ning, ho offered a resolution to appoint four special policemen to guard Front street, from Crawford to Franklin streets, to ensure an observance of tho ordinance above alluded to. Tho resolution was voted down. This, wo think, was very wrong. It is well known that on holiday occasions in our city, and Christmas especially, the juvenile male population of our city is very rude and thoughtless, and especially that portion quartered in the vicinity of the Warehouses; and that on such occa sions tho regular police have all they can do to look after tho older white mis creants, and tho large influx of negroes that congregate in our city during the holidays. We do hope the Aldermen will look at this matter in its true light, and yet provide ample force to guard against violations of tho ordinance. What is the expenditure of forty or fifty dollars, when-compared to the great amount at stake ? Sound policy calls for active and prompt action. If our children must have their fun and pastime, it is our duty to see that they are restrained within proper limits. Alderman Croft, from tho Police Com mittee, reported to the Council a set of ordinances for the government of the city police. They provide for the appointment of eight city guard by the Police Com mittee, to be sworn in by the Mayor.— Four are to serve at a time, alternately every 12 hours, and are to received com pensation, each, at the rate of $305 per annum, beiug one dollar per day. They are to be under the supervision of the Committee. Three applications for negro balls were laid before the Council. They were laid on the table. Alderman Quin offered a resolution to abate a nuisance in certain quarters of the city, which was adopted. It prohibits balls and frolics at houses licensed to retail, at the penalty of forfeiture of license. lie said this had been carried on greatly to the disturbance of the neighborhoods of their location. A resolution was offered by Alderman Croft and adopted, authorizing the Finance Committee to negotiate a loan of money to meet the January interest on tho Rail Road bonds. Alderman Quin called for information as to the purport of a paragraph he saw in the Sun a few days ago, about work being performed on private lots by the street bands. Alderman McKendree explained that to carry out an order given at the last meet ing, to make an outlet through tho side walk for water accumulated on certain lots, which was thought detrimental to health, it was found necessary to cut a ditch through a private lot and box it, in order to conduct the water off into the sewer. That one of the parties had con sented to pay his proportion of the ex pense. Alderman McKendree stated that the condition of theso lots had time and again, for the last two years, been re ported to the Council, and the owners notified to abate the nuisance, but with out effect. Ho knew no remedy for the evil but for the Council to perform tho work and make the owners of the proper ty foot tho bill, which he was satisfied the Council had the power to do. a The Military Again. We did not anticipate such a fluttering and brandishing of arms when we penned the short article in reference to the military, which appeared in our paper of the 20th inst. Rut it seems that it has not only aroused the young eagles, but the older ones, who havo been for years laid by on furlough. We give place very cheerfully to another communication ou the same subject, this morning from “An Old Guard”—one whom we know, and who, if he does not carry the scars earned in his country’s battle, yet still was one of tho noble Guards who did service in tho hills and chapparels of Mexico. May our arm be palsied ere wo strike at such men. We, however, feel it a duty and a privilege to strike at those who are receiving benefits earned by others, without discharging the duties incumbent upon them. And we wish it distinctly understood, that wo are not finding fault with the Columbus Guards alone, but each of our military companies for their remissness in the discharge of duties for which they re ceive a very large and fair equivalent. We may have misapprehended Captain Sernmes, bat tlTu tenor of his communica tion does certainly look to us as if he felt himself superior, in his command, to the Governor or other civil authorities. If wo havo misstated him, we are ready and willing to place him in a proper position. For the Daily Suu. Lilt. San: Permit mo the uso of your columns for the correction of what up pears to be misapprehension on your part of Capt. Semines “idea” as to the right of the Governor to call out the military force. In your remarks upon tho com- : muuication of Capt. Sernmes, which up pears in the Sun of the 21st, you attri bute to him opinions not warranted by his language. You ask, “Who hus tho right to call out the military?” and say, “according to Capt. Semuies’ idea the commanding officer alone ; he stands and holds his position superior to the Gov ernor of the State.” I havo carefully read the Captain's communication, and the only allusion l find in it to the Gov ernor is in the following sentence: “As to the Governor having any authority to divest our company of a legal right, that is simply ridiculous.” This remark vas elicited by that portion of your editorial of the 20tb, as follows: “Our military have given tho Governor the most rea sonable grounds to deprive them of their chartered rights.” 1 now ask, is it fair to construe a denial of the authority of ’ the Governor to divest the company of a legal eight, as a denial of his authority ta call ! out tho military “to quell an insurrection or riot,” or as claiming to hold a position superior to tho Governor of tho State ? We trow not, and so think you will admit. It is now approximating a quarter of a century sinoe tho organization and incor poration of the “Columbus Guards,” aud its history is too well known, its charac ter for prompt and patriotic action too well established, to render necessary fur ther notice of the innuendo, that to “dress up, march up and down Broad streot, and go through a few manoeuvres,” is all tho service performed as an equivalent for the immunities granted by its charter.
