MEErrNG OF CRY CouNcIL.-Present, the
Mayor; Aldermen volgt, Collins, Barrow, Greene
white; Holloway, Hampton, Small, Brown, L. M.
wall, Toward, colored. A motion to dispense
with the reading Of the minutes failed, though 1t
was intimated that such course would cause
many to leave, and thus prevent o quorum. Tne
few members present were evidently anxious to
attend the Republican meeting at the Military
Hall, and only remained in Council to avoid the
fne.or 500, imposed on absentees After read
the minutes, the Mayor stated th&s ne under
stood many OF the members had important en-
eagements elsewhere, and before motion to ad-
iourn was made, he wished TO bring some pres
sing matters to their attention. The directors OF
the Blue Ridge Railroad would soon hold meet
ing In Columbia, and it was necessary that the
city should be represented, and the meeting
had been postponed for that purpose. 1t was,
therefore, necessary for him TO attend, and he
asked that In accordance with the usual custom
an acting Mayor be nominated.
Aldermen Cunningham and Geddings were pro-
posed, and the former elected.
The Mayor stated that he wonld call an extra
meeting on next Tuesday. On motion, Council
then adjourned.

leading actor In tragedies was the FIRST who per-
formed the part of .'Rolla" In Charleston, Mrs.
Marshall performed Cora and Mr.. Marshall
"Alonzon In this company came the celebrated
Mrs. Righton and two daughters. One of them
afterwards married Mr.. Placide, who became
eminent as q manager in the Charleston Theatre
about 1901 This was the father OF Henry Pa
eide, who was destined to win so many laurels IN
the Northern theatres Here was also engaged
the celebrated Mr.. and Mrs. WhitOck, the latter
sister to Mrs. Sddons, whose acting, In con-
junction with that OF Chalmers, drew crowded
houses. This so encouraged the managers that
they engaged the Charleston Theatre, which, after
| having been shut up for three or four years, had
meantime been used by the Rev. Messrs. Buist
and Purcell as 4 classical academy for young
gentlemen.
The students occasionally took advantage of
the arrangement of the cdi1ce to indulge in anna
tcur thcatricals and there arc those still living
who remember the representation of Addisons
"Caton and other plays by the pupils, among
whom were young Stock, Gaillard, Lowndes,
Fraser, White, Cross and others of that day. In
1891, CIR thereabouts, Mcssrs. Hopkinson Il
Placidc opened the theatre as managers, with a
forced by some of the best talent Of the Old COM
pany, achieved very gratifying success.
Among the actors and actresses who figured
conspicuously upon the Charleston boards about
this time were Mr.. and Mrs. Young, Mr.. Hip
worth Mr.. OldmiXon, Mrs. W0odmonsOn, and
MR. Spiiler. Every year additions were made as
the support given to the theatre justified, until
the stock company became by far the best on
this continent. Such was the enthusiasm in
those days for the drama, that the struggle for
seats in the box oflce on Broad street, then kept
by our fellow Citizen A. E. Miller, Esq, was fire.
ouently so eager that the garments OF the contest
ants were nearly torn from their backs.
But the disastrous fire which destroyed the
theatre in Richmond, Va, and sacrificed the lives
of so many victims, put an abrupt end to all the
atrical enterprises in the South until after the war
of 1912. In 1877 Mr.. Holleman brought out good
company to Charleston, and was very well re-
ceived. After his DEATH his daughter, Mrs. Gil
fcrt conducted the theatre as part proprietor, but
in n few years the enterprise began to langush,
the character OF the acting having vlsbly de;erio-
rated. and the establishment was finally closed;

converts to Republicanism. A set of bylaws
Were adopted, and arrangements perfected to
secure the books and papers Of the club from
the old officers. 1t appears that Mr.. Barnes.
Commissioner OF the Ward, desired to m IKE
statement, upon the question OF allowing viii CHI
a general debate arose, in which Mr.. Barnes
was charged with being a weak kneed Repub-

ing forced those whom he did employ TO paw
him nifty cents per day. with having arrested
slaves when endeavoring to escape, with put

money TO pay toll when he kept the

Mr.. Barnes replied that ne nld only employ
