THE C US TOM HO TTS E.
Air. Clark Demands tue Office of Vallee
Cor of Cns to ma-He thinks He Shoal ri
Go Into Office at One? Dr Mackey Dif?
fers with Him-Ultimatum of Dr. Mac?
key- nemarks of the Old and Blew Col?
lector.
A* one o'clock yesterday, Ur. George W.
Clark called apx>n Dr. A. G. Mackey at thc Cus?
tomhouse, and presented a lettei from the
President of the United States, infennina Dr.
Mackey that be had been suspended. He also
presented an order from the Commissioner of
Customs direct mg Dr. BI. to surrender his Of?
fice opon application from Mr. Clark, and re?
quiring Dr. M. to take from him duplicate re?
ceipts of all public property in bis chargo.
Dr. Mackey said he was happy to be relieved
from aS the responsibilities and anxieties of
the position, and though he might, in view of
the bad company Mr. Clark bad boen keeping
lately-, [il ia understood that Congressman
Bowen and Senator Sawyer are the bad com*'
pan? referred to] dispute the antheaticity of
tb? documents presented, he preferred to re?
cognize the validity of the communications,
and would comply without delay to the demand
made. As it was necessary, however, before
complying to make out schedules of the public
property he had, in order that Mr. Clark might
receipt for the same, he would at once com?
mence to mike them out, and when they were
completed the office was ready for him.
Mr. Clark claimed that as be had made his
application for office, be, therefore, was acta
ally the Collector, and in support of this view
he called the attentipn of Dr. M. to the fact
that the Commissioner of Customs, ia his
communication, had addressed him as the
"hte Colleotor."
To Ulis Dr. Mackey replied by showing a
letter from the Commissioner, under date of
Jnly 17th, in which he addressed him aa "Col?
lector ot the Port." This he declared was an
offset to the letter eh DWD by Mr. Clark. He,
however, expressed his willingness to surren?
der the office then and there if Mr. Clark would
sign receipts in blank.
This Mr. Clark refused to do, whereupon Dr.
M.expressed bis intention to protect his bonds?
men and himself at all hazards, and told Mr.
Clark that be would give him his ultimatum
in writing, which he did, as follows:

ture on or before tbe Slat day of July, 1869.

THE Fas nt KIRKLAND'S LAKE_Chief Eu- j
g neer Nathan has concluded his investigation 1
of the origin of the fire ia Kirkland's Lane. The'
testimony showed that the boase was inhabit- ,
ed by white and negro men and women, and l
was nothing more nor less than the lowest of j
brothels; that on the night of the fire the ?
whole party were in a beastly state of in toxi- j
cation, and that the fire was accidental 1
THE Cm AND THE STATE.-A correspondent .
who lives in Bennetts ville, says: ''Your paper i

can it be otherwise, when yon seem to have th 3 ,
welfare of the country as well as the oity at i
heart.*' Certainly. THE NEWS is the represen- 1
talive of all South Carolina, our heart is in the '
monutains as well as on the coast; and so will
it be while THE NEWS, like the sun, shines
for all. Price five cents.
Oua Nsw COLLECTOR.-A letter from Exeter,
N. H., on the 12th of July, to tbe Boston Trav?
eller, states that "Mr. Clark is there on a
visit to his relatives." The writer, after fur?
nishing some statements from the ex-Mayor's i
annual report, ("kindly furnished by him,")
showing that he had greatly im proved Charles- 1
ton during his term of office, says: "Ia fact ;
Mr. Clark completely 'Yankeeized' the city, and ;
it is a pity tt at he could not have been con
tinned in the office a few years to finish the
work he had so well commenced. But this i
was not to be." The writer then goes on to
show bow the collector was enobred oat of i
bis position by the "palpable frauds" of the elec- I
tionheld last November, and adds: "Mr. Clark
is a native ot this town, a graduate from Phil
lipeBxeter Academy, and will be remembered
by manx of your readers as for several years a I
member of the firm of lUlph Smith ? Co., of i
Boston. He will return to Charleston in a few
days to assume his daties as collector, a posi?
tion for which his attainments admirably
qualify him. Mr. C. went to Morris Island in
the latter part of 1863, and was among the first
to ea tabb sh himself in business in Charleston
after its occupation by tho Union troops."
BBUTAL ASSAULT BT A NEGBO POLICEMAN.
Yesterday moruing a DC.o policeman namod
Tom Butler was arraigned before Captain Hen
chicks upon the charge of maltreating a whito
mao whom he had arrested.
lt appears from the testimony given by Al?
derman Collins, that Butler arrested a drunken
white man, and because he would not walk,
shook and cuffed him, and when he laid dow a
took him by the heels and jerked him along 1
the ground, thereby severely bruisine his bead 1
and shoulders. A white policeman told Butler
to desist from his cruelty, and offered to aid j
him in carrying the pnsooer to the Guard?
house. Butler indignantly refused the prof?
fered assistance of Policeman Hogan, and ?aid
him if he interfered he would bavo him ar- i
rested. Alderman Collins was cal'ed and
cime, and remonstrated with the negro, who i
made some very insulting remarks in reply,
and said that it he had his club wi h bim he ?
would make his prisoner walk. Alderman
Collins then had the negro puf under arrest, i
but as soon as he was released be walked up
and down m front of the Aldeimau's house, |
and mad 3 threats against him. I
After hearing the evidence, which clearly es?
tablished the chargo, thc Chief dismissed i
Butler from ; he force. A.deman Collins then
made an appeal tor tho nee.ro. and the cbief ?
reinstated him, but fined him $10. ]

and gave a history of all the acts and of eveiy
thing else that referred to the coroner and his
duties.
During Alderman Mackey's remarks, Alder?
man Barrow came in.

was withdrawn by Alderman E. W. M. Mackey

grossed for ratification at the next meeting.
The bill to regulate and organize the detec?
tive force of the city was then called up.
It will be remembered that this bill provides
that the de te-ti vs force bo made independent

nitely the consideration of everything con?
nected with the bill, which was lost.

tions.
After considerable discussion, th? bill passed

A K. K. K. LETTES TO THE CHIEF or POLI CK.
From the following letter it would appear that
Captain Hendricks has a friend in a United
States officer, who is much interested in his
movements, and threatens to make him fur?
nish a funeral :
AUGUSTA, GA., July 19,1869.
Hendricks -Ton thieving, murdering Radi?
cal schonndrel,! have waited long and anxious?
ly for some one to put an end to your miser?
able existence, tor your actions while a Confed?
erate officer in Char leeton and on the islands;
but, you infamous scalawag, you had better
prepare your soul, if you have one, for I will
soon send you before your Maker to give a
strict account of yourself, and rid Charleston
of one of the -est rascals the sun ever
shooe on. Would you know the reason I am
going to do it fur ? It is for being the cause of
having a dear friend of mine murdered. So
look out It may be in a day, a week or a I
month; but this much I have sworn it, yon
shall not live till January, 1870, if I am alive.
And one thing, I do not fear the eonsequenoe,
if money and friends will avail much. I would
willingly give ten thousand dollars to any one
who would do it for me.

THE TBOUBLI OK EDISTO.-We learn from
gentlemen, in whom we have confidence, that
the arrest of Cyrus Hey ward had nothing to
do with the recent trouble on Edisto. Cyras
is a notoriously bad ne ero, and was arrested |
for drawing a pistol on Mr. Berg, a olanter,
who had ordered Cyrus off his place. The war?
rant was served on Cyrus by Mr. Marsiella,
who is a Swede by birth, but has lived in
South Carolina since his boyhood. There is
no "Northern man*' in him. Cyrus resisted,
oura ed Mr. Marstella, and was shot by Mr.
Marstella in self-defence, as Cyrus' wife was
banding her husband a gun. Gyros was not
tied like a calf, nor was he in any way ill
treated. Cyras was arrested on the 6th, and
was set at liberty by some negroes on the
night before the troubles. As to the true
cause of these troubles, it may be said that
tho refusal of the negroes to make up the lost
day-the 5th-was not general. On Mr. Ter?
rel's place, however, the negroes refused to
make up the time, being led by Moses Gads?
den, a prominent negro member of the Union
League, who Jolt!4je tellpw-laborers that they
would be fined ten dollars each if they made up
work lost on League meeting .ays, of which
the 5th was one. Moses said be was advised
by Peter Hedges-a negro minister and presi?
dent of the League-not to allow himself to be
ejected, and not to make up the time. In this
the Union League was to, stand by him. Tbis
was the immediate cause of the disturbance,
which ended very much In the way already de?
scribed in THE NEWS.

of the citizens on reasonable terms. His work
