solution, which was laid over under the 18thBule :

Whereas it is tbe unanimous judgment of theBoard of Commissioners of the Charleston Orphanr>ouse) that the reduction in the annual appropria¬tion for the school connected with that institution,from two thousand five hundred dollars to twothousand dellars, places at their disposal a sum en¬

tirely inadequate rur the compensation of ten teach¬ers, who are faithfully and zealous.y laboring in thedischarge of their arduous and responsible duties,and, ir adhered to, must prove detrimental to thatimportant branch of the charity. Therefore,

solution, which was referred to the Committeeon Streets :

signed: Alonzo J. White, William A. Courtenay,Robert Adger, Z. B. cakes, Thomas J. S err, JohnFerguson.Alderman Honour moved that the considera¬

tion of the same be postponed to the nextmeeting. Carried.Alderman Willis presented the following pe¬

tition, M bich took the same coarse as the one

just read:THE Crrr OF CHARLESTON:

To the Honorable Mayor and Aldermen in CommonCouncil attcmbUtt:

The memorial of the undersigned citizens, resid¬ing in the various wards of Charleston, humbly andrespectfully sh owc th. (hat they constitute a portionof a large class 0/ the population of Charleston, andhave in the patt and do now contribute materially tothe support of the city government by the paymentof large amounts of taxes and other levies, made un¬

der the ordinances of CoonCiL 'Ihey have been ap¬prized through the public press that certain indivi¬duals have applied to, or they propose to ask of yourhonorable body the corporate assent to the construc¬tion and establishment of a freight railway, to be run

upon a line parallel with and to the east of East Bay,and connecting the railroad depots witn the differentwharves of the city. The act ot the Legislature creat¬ing the company provided that tne consent of thecity government- should bc first had and obtainedbefore the act of Incorporation could be carried out;and some time ago, briefly after the enactment of thestatute, a similar proposition lo the one now intend¬ed was made to your honorable body, and was re¬

jected. The act of incorporation was procured in theinterest ofa small portion of our citizens, acd at theexpense and detriment of considerably the largerportion of the community. The reasons that influ¬ence and determine your memorialist? in their pre¬sent course are as mucn of a public asa private char¬acter. There are io number five hundred and sev¬

enty-five (575) licensed carts, wagons and drays,which yield to the city an annual revenue of eleventhousand five hundred ($11,500) dollars-. There arelive hundred and seventy-five (575) persons employ¬ed in the running and working of these carts anddrays, who are, in ninety-nine cases out of a hun¬dred, dependent upon tuts employment for their o al¬ly subsistence. The large majority of this numberhave families leaolDg upon them for supp' rt. Anda considerable portion ot thia classof our citizens areproperty holders. If your consent is yielded to thisenterprise it will not alone affect the prosperity ofthose citizens engaged in this particular line of busi¬ness, 'out will necessarily undermine the growth ofour city, diminish its population, retard emigrationby closing the avenues to employment in these pur-tuils, and damaging the local trade of the inhabi¬tants, by lessening the custom of the butcher, thebaker, the artisan and craftsman of every descrip¬tion-extending ita pernicious consequencesthroughoutallthoramificaHons ot our internal trade.If five .hundred men or half that number are de¬prived of the employment by which their dailybread is earned, ttiey will be forced to' emigrate, orif they remain, to be a burden upon the rest of thecommunity. If you subtract this amount of em¬ployment from the general supply, it ls tantamount tosubtracting so much labor, and to the same extentIn a like proportion subtracting from the'earningsof the thousands following the different avocationshereinafter enumerated. The policy and advantage ofany auch public enterprise is, to say the least, ex¬

tremely questionable, and independent oí the con¬siderations suggested, tbat it may affect the well¬being of a large number of our lellow-cittzenB, itmay entail, if undertaken at the expense of Council,an expenditure that would never be fruitful to thetreasury.Tour memorialists humbly suggest to your honor¬

able body that in the present state of the commerceand business of Charleston no outlay of this kindwould be productive, and under existing circum¬stances would be highly inexpedient, hor are yourmemorialists aware that the desire to bave tais railway constructed is shared to any extent by the citi-ze. s at large; on the contrary, they firmly believethat if the voice and opinion of the public could bemanifested upon its adoption, it would be found tohave few sympathizers; "while a large majority wouldbe found arrayed against lt. It will eu . ely inflict se¬rious loss upon you memorialists and others, and theyhumbly pray your honorable body to take theirmemorial into consideration, with thc reasons theyhave herein reepectiully'urged, why you should re-tuse the desired permission to construct and put inoperation the contemplated railwy; and earnestlyrequesting your favorable consideration, they will,oe in dutv bound, ever pray, kcSigned : Bollminn broth» rs, John N.

Savannah Weekly Market.SAVANNAH, May 7.-COTTON-Our market bas

shown the most unexampled week of quietude sinceour last that all have experienced since the war, andthe fact is holders will not yield, buyers will not ope¬rate at their figures, and the whole market amountsto a dead lock.Late declining dispatches from New Tork and Liv¬

erpool have rather staggered tho sanguine holders,but without any feeling of distrust in the turare be¬ing evinced, as most partios holding are not disposedto sell, and in fact the bulk of the entire cotton forsale here is controlled by men wbo con do so, andwho do not expect prices to recede materially, andultimately, on actual scarcity, to go np very high.Caution is wantoil taddy at such prices, but every¬thing assumes on the question of supply and de¬mand a very healthy hue, for cotton mora particu¬larly on thia sido of the water, as when tho foreignload'np fleet is cleared, we shall t xhibit a terrible de¬fiere tor home consumption,which cannot be replacedexcept by import, and when all begin that style ofbusiness, we shall have the nucleus of a serious fi¬nancial panicThe stocks in the injerior are very limited, the to¬

tal amount at the most prominent places being about21,000 bales, and our advices from them point tobut small receipts tor the rest of the season. Augus¬ta will probably receive about 3000 bales more, thewhole of which will be required to keep the mills inthat section in operation, and th? supply from otherpart* of the State ls almost entirely exhausted. Ac¬counts from Louisiana point to a more lavorable re¬sult ofpresent planting than lae1-, year. Here we arescarcely disposed to contend for as good a yield onaccount or heavy freshets, requiring replanting al¬ways precarious. We hope for toe best, and quoteas the ruling figure of the week at 30c for good ordi¬nary, with in some cases, eales at lower figures.Middling is held firmly at 32c, and low middling at31c.SEA ISLANDS.-Renewing our quotations of last

Macon Weekly Cotton Market.MACON, May 8.-GENERAL HEMARKS-From ac¬

counts received from middle and Southwestern Geor¬gia, we learu that our planters are still busily engag¬ed in repairing damages Irom the late floods, aralmaking preparations to r. plant corn. Very fortu¬nately out few had put in their cotton seed, andluckily have lost nothing but their fertilizers. Un¬dismayed, all have set manfully to work, determinedto make good etops, if this can be accomplished byperseverance and industry. With propitious seasons,we predict a good average crop, and prosperous andactive times next fall.We have but little improvement to note in trade

this week from that of last. P.anters have nearly alllaid in supplies to last them tor a abort lime, whilecountry merchants have bousht sparingly, and mos'-Iv tor cash. In the leading articles, aa will be seenfrom the figures quoted be.ow, there has been butlittle change.COTTON-Our market has undergone but little

chance* duce our last review, though it has followedthc fluctuations of the Liverpool and new îork mar¬keta.
