Yesterday, ioug before the hour appointed for the meeting of citizens at the City Hall, the large court room wds thronged and the outer hall filled with merchants, professional meD, mechanics, and in fact, all classes of citizens. — The places of business were generally closed, and at noon, the hour ot meeting, an almost Sabbath stillness reignod on Broad street. In the court room the meeting was called to order by Mr. Edward Thomas, who moved that Dr. Lewis D. Ford he called to preside. This was carried by acclamation, aud amid loud ap plause the venerable Doctor was conducted to the chair. On motion. Major J. V. H. Allen and James C. C. Black, Esq. were chosen as Secretaries. At this juncture Gen. Wright suggested, in view of the crowded condition of the apartment and the fact that the hall, steps and court yard were Ailed with citizens anxious to participate in the action of tbe meeting, that the Chairman occupy the front portico. This was adopted without opposition. The Chairman and Secretaries having taken position as suggested, Dr. Ford proceeded to state the object ot the meeting: He found himself, he said, in a very unusual position—called upon to preside At a meeting cf citizens (without distinction of party pre dilections) rendered necessary by the emer gency of affairs. Every good citizen was called upon to perlorm his duties in this crisis, for the situation was anomalous and peculiar. We have no municipal government whatever. The so-called Mayor and Aldermen have no shadow of authority—no more than any other citizen. Keeping out of view all political questions, these so-called officers have no au thority under the law and the constitution.— He took the broad ground that they acted sole ly by military authority, which was now ex tinct. The liimnees of the oily are under the control of irreepoimilile men—no, not irresponsible, But men without character, who would ere look, he hoped, he called to a strict accounta bility for all their unwarrantable proceedings While he would not say a word to lurther eXcltv 1 the indignation of his fellow-citizens, it ought not to be kept out of view that the occa sion of this meeting was the tearful outrage ol Monday night, upon unarmed citizens, by cer tain ot the so called police of this city; the shooting down of one—a peace officer, iry the discharge of his duty—and the shooting to .death of another. It should also lie reraem tu'red that these acts were perpetrated by this police, not while endeavoring to arrest feioiiD, hut. in order to suppress hud talking. A loajed pistol was insolently shaken in the fact* of a crippled man, and that man announcing himself (inarmed ! Spread abroad the fact, that all of the shots -some say nine to twelve—were tired by the police, save one. bo thift—not with heat and pas sion, but not with intltemronce. If no other result shall follow, this nieoti.jg, it will make these officers understand that tln-y **lll be held responsible and amenable to the. law for tssutig damage ami tor every act thin* unlawfully poi pt'trated. A jury of inquest, enmpiwed ot true «ic».\ have r.nid that one of these officers has committed murder, and'another was accessory to the crime. The Chairman eouclnde'.d by saying it was useless for him to counsel moderation under the circumstances, for lie saw depicted on every countenance calmness an well an determination. Heartv applause followed these remarks, and the Chairman then announced Ural, the meeting was ready to proceed to the business before it. On motion ot Dr. W. FI. Tutt, a committee of eight was appointed to report business for the meeting. The committee consisted of the following named gentlemen: Dr. W. 11. Tutt, W. H. Howard, E. W. Doughty, Edward Thom as f W. H. Goodrich, R. H. May, H. F. Russell and .. T - B- Camming. On t.h’ e retirement ot the committee loud calls were made for several gentlemen to address the assemblage, but ass of them seemed to think the occasion did not demand anything like h speech. After repeated calls Oh G. W. Rains was in duced to appear and say and few words: The Colonel said he was no politician. He had been educated a soldier ami had never voted iu his life. The Congress! ot the eo-call ed United States had seen fit to place his name upon the roll of hODOr, in that be had loved hi* country and done too much for her too wet) in the past to be permitted to have a voice or a vote now. We are drifting iu turbulent current* ; lie therefore earnestly counselled -.i-reat caution, much forbearance and patient watchfulness, in order that, when the favorable moment did stttive we might be in a condition to avail ourselves of it. Declining to make a speech, he proposed to give way for some one far better able to address fcte fellow-citizens. General Wrigbt their took stir stand. He, too -deemed the occasion one whore ttierv was no ’ necessity for much speaking. He was looked upon as a politieian purely. Party politics had not called this vast concourse together; but tw welfare of the city was at stake, the peace ol society, and the safety ot wo t only our lives su'd property, but those of our wives aud children. H* bo V e<\ the de itiberaf ions of the meeting would remit in good *o all citizens, regardlessjof nme or condemn, and that they would be marked by prudence, ; Mr. Black was also induced, aflei re peated calls, to make a few remarks- He was but a recent citizen and it seemed to him that some older resi dent should address them. While he yield ed to no one in Ids devotion to Augusts and bar interests, yet be, tor the reasons stateo r -a reluctance to speak ou this occasion ; hul while up he would take occasion to sav that like grievances which had called us to this iplace wore above and .separate from party dif ferences. He implored his hearers that mode nation might characterize their deliberations. Remove the evils of which wo complain by the power of the law. Let wisdom guide our counsels and moderation walk our actions, that justice might be done. Every man should eet himself to work to see that the supremacy of the law should be vindicated. The purpose of this assembly Was not to inaugurate opposi tion to law, but to seek the restoration of law. Let constitutional taw be restored and peace will foL’ow, and Augusta take her place once more as trie Queen City of the Empire State of the South. The committee on business returned and re ported as follows i Resolved, That the chartered rights of the city of Augusta, bestowed upon and insured to us from time immemorial by the supreme power of the State for the prelection of our lives liberty and property, have been practi cally denied us; that the chief executive officer, appointed, not under that charter, J>n( , upon us by military order, while drawing from the city treasury a salary more than double that paid to any other prior incumbent, is not now, nor has he for weeks past been in the city, and, indeed, is rarely to be seen within its limits, but has been absent, and notoriously has been engaged in political matters at Washington, Chicago, Atlanta and elsewhere, to the scandal ous neglect of his duties here. That the thirteen which compose the board of Mayor and Aldermen of the city of Augusta, aud who are charged with the administration of city affairs, only two are to be found iri our midst—a number insufficient for the transac tion of business, and at this day we are virtual ly without a municipal government. That without expressing any opinion as to the guilt of any particular party, Resolved, That the antagonism now existing between the police anil citizens whom they (the police) are employed to protect, (as evi dence of their failure to use the proper means of preventing a disturbance on Monday night last, before resorting to the use ol deadly weapons) shows a deplorable state of affairs, which, it coutiuued, must end in anarchy and bloodshed. Resolved, That, the mismanagement by the present Mayor and Council of the financial in terests of the city proceeds either from corrup tion, gross incompetency, or both, ami results in the destruction of the credit of the city and the imposition of heavy burdens on its citizens. That the evidence-of this mismanagement is to be found in three facts: With an enormous revenue, derived from the real estate in this city, taxed two per centum ou an assessment usually higher than the market value; from special taxes on hydrants and other water priv ileges ; from imposts and licences upon all brandies of business, and from other sources not here enumerated—nevertheless, the ordi nary expenses ot the municipal government are not met. Policemen are compelled to wait tor their salaries, mechanics are unable to collect their wages, the lights burnt in the streets are not paid lor, and the corporation is sued in the court upon claims of Northern ma chinists for engines furnished the tire depart ment, claims which, thongh unpaid, are undis puted. Again : Valuable investments of the corpo ration made by the predecessors of the present Mayor and Council have, by the lat ter, been wasted or imperilled. The city stocks in the Georgia Railroad and Banking Company, amounting to eleven hun dred shares, and the stock in the Augusta and Columbia Railroad Company have been pledged, and will, unless a better administra tion prevails, be sold lor loans made to this Council. Again : This Council, in order to meet its subscription of SIOO,OOO to) the Macon and Augusta Railroad, has issued $250,000 bonds of the city and put them inlo the hands of an agent of the Railroad Company in New York. These bonds have been hypothecated at forty cents on the dollar, and the condition of neither tbe Railroad Company nor the city affords any prospect that they will be redeemed, and the city will have paid $250,000 principal and aecumuiated interest for a subscription of *IOO,OOO Resolved , That we appeal against these evils and protest that we be left no longer the vic tims of t.heslupidity or corruption which mis applies, wastes, or embezzles the public money, which alter such onerous taxation, and so much borrowing, alter burdening the tax payer and deterring capital from our midst, leaves not the wherewith to meet the ordinary expenses of the city, anil has reduced the credit to con tempt. Resolved, That inasmuch as the Governor, in his late message to the General Assembly, has virtually recommended that he be invested with discretionary power as to Ibe amount ol tbe bonds of public officers of this Slate, that we enter our solemn protest, against the reduction in anv way of the bonds required of the public officers of this city and comity, as these bonds arc the only security the public has for the proper application ol the public funds, which, in the shape of State and county laves, alone amounted last year to upwards ot SI2O,(XX). Resolved, That these matters command our most serious coueidcratiou, and this meet ing do call upon the Legislature, now in session in Atlanta, for relief; and that three citizens be appointed to present these resolutions, and the subjects herein embodied and pertinent hereto, as a memorial to the Legislature, and to remain in Atlanta at the expense of the citizens until such hill lie passed as may insure to us that protection vouchsafed by law to our lives and property. Resolved , That a committee ol twelve be, appoilited by the Chairman of this meeting, af ter adjouriuucuL, to obtain siguatm i-s ol the citizens of Augusta, without delay, to these igsolutious. On omfiou, Hie report wu- uunuiuionsly adopted. The Chairman appointed on thp eooirnillee to visit Atlanta: Dr. W. If Tutt, W II Howard, and Vv. A. Walton. Major J. It. Onmipiug then responded to calls which had frequently bien made. lie said he thought, ftit had been said which should Ire by speakers who had preceded him, and he fully endorsed the resolutions. In the language ot one of the resolutions, the city had been for eighteen months “ virtually without a govern incut,” submitting to unlawful power—no one of her citizens resisting save through the law no one proposing V) resist- only asking ol tin 1 Legislature relict lor flic hit lire. The course adopted is eminently proper. The de facto city rulers remain at present. Let us have no col lision. and In' hoped that in ten days we would have a proper g.overuiih-r;/ He referred briefly to tins course ot the committee with the Legis lature, and believed .that after a t rue representa tion ot our condition relict would be granted Let us do our duty, and vm tviil soon have the right men in the rigid place. On motion, the meeting then adjourned. We have no comments so make. The re marks of gentlemen, the language of the reso tedious, and the earnest, dignified deportment of the .immense concourse of citizens, we fuel assured .mute have ail influence for good. The following tewßied gentlemen compose the committee undcj' the sixte resolution : First Ward—John U. Meyer, if. Olay Eos ter, U. T. Peay. Second Ward—J- T- gothwell, Henry Myers, John L.
