SAITH, of Charleston, supports tho charge that,
on tho 9th OF April, ho maloiously cut hnd mutt
lated tho Garrison Flag which had beon loaned to
| tho Charleston Hook and Ladder Company to de-
corate their Truck for parade. Indeed, the only
circumstance in favor Of tho accused Is his own
acknowledgements OF guilt, coupled with an avowal
| that tho net was don6 in a moment Of unduo OK
citement, and an oppression OF sincere contrition
1 for tho offence. III. .r .'i.

Of misconduct; it is orderol that he be dis
charged. ....r.E. .ttr;,, - '''H ''' .. '' '''
