CIVIC HosPITAIITIEs TO THE OFFICERS OF
TaE SPANISH GUNBoATs.-A communication was
received yesterday by Mayor Pilsbury, from Sc
nor de Moncada, the Spanish Consul, asking him
to state what hour would be convenient for him
to receive the Officers Of the neet Of Spanish gun
boats now in our harbor. Hslf-past two O'Clock
was designated. At that hour the Spanish Con-
sui, accompanied by Commodore Casariego and
Captains Tragua, Plnegro and Lagunilla, called
upon the Mayor at his chamber. Aldermen Bar
row, Collins, Voigt, Cunningham, Geddings and
Hampton represented the Council. DR.. Lebby,
the health oficer; MesSrs. Thomas and Whilden,
treasurer and assistant treasurer; P. j. Coo
gan and H. G. Camplln, appraiser and assistant;
the City Sheriff and the City Attorney were also
present, and united in rendering to the guests
the hospitalities OF the city. The visitors were
shown the paintings and other objects OF interest
in the Council Chamber, and after pleasing in
terchapge of courtesies, an adjournment was
called r4t the clerks office, where collation. was
spread by Roberts, the caterer Of Council. The
health OF the Spanish officers was quaned in
champagne, and toasts were offered expressive OF
the entente cordiaEe existing between the author-
ties and the officers OF the fleet
D A visit was subsequently paid to the Collector
OF the Port, and In the evening the naval visitors
attended the Academy OF Music. The health OIL
Ger has kindly extended to the Spanish fleet the
use OF the city hospitals in case any emergency
should arise. Only two OF the officers present at
the interview could speak English, but they were
all ACQUAINTED with American history, and ex-
amined the portraits OF General washington in
Council Chamber with great interest. They ex-
pressed pleasure at their reception in Charleston
which they regarded as one of the historic cities
OF the world and dwelt upon the prominent part
she had sustained In the late war.
The frigate Plzarro and four additional gun
boats are hourly expected and it is not mpro-
bable that this port will be made the rendezvous
for the entire feet the vessels now in port Will
remain fer three or four days.

TIE OPBRA SEAsoN.-Another fashionable
audience graced the Academy Of Music last even
ing on the occasion OF the production OF Offen-
bachs delicious opera OF "Slxty-Six." The piece
went of, If possible, better than those OF the pre-
vious evening, Miss Susan Galton and Mr.. whif-
fin dividing between them the lions share Of the
applause. The part sustained by Mr.. Whiffin az
forded bat scanty scope for fine singing, but to
make amends for this his acting was really su-
perb. "Home, Sweet Home" by Miss Susan Gal
ton, beapg eneored, she sang "Coming Thro'
the Rye with the same archness and effect as
on Monday evening Mr.. Clark, as the Peddler
though trine stiff song well. 1t is long indeed
since Charleston has seen so thoroughly enjoyable
aud merltorlous performance.
Tonight the operatic version, in four acts, Of
Fanchon, the Cricket, will be produced. Fanchon
is always popular, less, perhaps, on account OF
its original music than because it abounds in the
: choicest aorceaur from the favorite operas OF
the great masters. 1t will afford, therefore, q
severe test OF the vocal powers OF the Galton
Troupe.

A misunderstanding arose between some mem
bers of Council as TO the nature Of the report,
but on hearing the petition read the report was
adopted
The same committee then made the following
report, which was adopted-.Aldermen Hampton
and l.. F. Wall voting no:
The committee to whom was referred the reso-
linton of Alderman Barrow, at the last meeting
OF Council, beg leave to report that, having eX-
amined the matter carefully they nnd tnat II is
not in the power OF the Mayor 10 impose me
greater than $780, and that If the resolution was
adopted by Council, 1t would be imperative.
Your committee therefore beg to be relieved from
the furtherconsiderStions the subject, ana Oc
discharged.
Alderman Geddngs, from the Committee on Ac-
counts, reported favoraby on sundry bills against
the city. Adopted.
Alderman Holloway, from the Committee on
Brick and Wooden Buildings, reported favorably
on the petition OF Lloyd. Adopted
Alderman voigt, from the Committee on City
Lands, recommended the renewal OF leases to the
following persons: Estate OF Stelnmeyer, NJ. G.
Camplin, j. +. Schirmer and B. NJ. Forgartie;
the leases TO be extended for period Of ten
wears. Also, the renewal OF the leases OF water
lots TO E. M. Brodie, Courtcnay & Trenholm and
Fl. 7. Street. for q term OF five years.
Aldermen Collins and Barrow opposed the re-
port and advocated the advertisement OF the
lands in the public prints, so that all persons
could bid for the leases, and not make monopoly
OF the leases OF the city lands by certain parties
who had heretofore occupied them.
Alderman vo'st explained that the prices asked
for these leases had been largely increased. The
tenants had improved the property, and 1t was
thought only justice to allow them to retain pos
session OF these city lands.
On motion, the report was referred back to the
committee.
The Committee on Steam Engines reported IA
yorably on the petitions OF James Adger & Co.
and J. @. Jacobs. Adopted.
