I', has b"cn suggested, and we think with a good deal of propriety, that there bo some demonstration to-morrow by our citizens suitable to the hap py occasion. We are aware tbjat there is a strong feeling among many that business should be suspended for, at least, a part bl the day to givo an op portunity for those who cannot go to Washington, to celebrate thcocccaston here at home in a suitable manner. Somehow there ought to be something done, it no more than to wake the echoes of the Mils by the firing of 100 gun3. Let the people have some sort of fun, by all means. City Court. Spencer Stanford, colored, was the first case which was brought before the Mayor this morning. He was charged with being drunk and disorderly and a fine of $5 was imposed for the offense. May E. William-', colored, occasion ally gets drunk and then she becomes terribly uproarious. Such; was her condition last night when she was taken in by the police. She as shouting drunk, and this morning she was re quired to deposh $5 for the good ot the city whose peace and quietude she had outraged, but a3 she could not turnish the amount she was sent below tor 20 day a. or.tbe Inauguration. The South Carolina Volunteers, a olored military organization ofCharles ton, S; C , 30 strong, accompaHicd by Brig. Gen. Jl C. Clauson, also colored, passed through this city at about half past 1 o'clock this morning, en route for Washington, D. C. where they will participate in the parade incident to President Cleveland's inauguration. It is a fine body of men and is the only military organization from- that citv. We understand that all the ex pcnses.ot ,tteir. trip 'will. be. paid by the white citizens of Charleston,1 who nave contributed the necessary funds for travel, food, lodgings and other heces sary' incidentals. To-lay'ri Fire. At ai'opVnopn to-day the two stoty frame dwelling on the corner of Bladen and Third streets, owned and occupied by Eyander McBrydc, colored, was discovered to be on tire in the second story. The alarm was at once given and the firemen were quickly present, bat owing in a great measure to the strong breeze that was blowing at the time the flames had gotten under sbch headway that the roof and upper story of the house were consumed. The lower story and nearjy ail of t Tie furni ture were saved. The flames ignited and somewhat damaged an adjoining j one story frame dwelliug. also the prop erty of McBryde, and it was saved only, by the best exertions of the firemen The entire loss was ab ut $300, upon which there was no insurance.

A Hough Joke. We hear of rather a rough joke which was porpetrated a few days since upon a Northern tn an who has recently be- wmca ikiucbuu iuis ciiy. tie invited by a party to join in a hunting . . . J . excursion up the Northeast river in toe vicinily of the quarries, not far from gladly accepted, as he was fond of such I sport. Arriving at theptace the party , hunted wuh indifferent success until it . , ... ,i became time to return. After tit party had embarked in the boat which was to bring them tp H ifmington. one of the number pointed his gun totbe opposite! Alderman Dudley, from the Market shore and remarked, "Oh, don't I wish Committee, reported that the clerk of that tnse bushes were blanked j the Front Street Market had been sue Yankees? and wouldn't 1 like to I peoded by the Mayor and the Core pepper their hides for them?" The j mittec. The action had been sustained stranger lelt insulted and outraged, but j and the position declared vacant; as he was not well acquainted with the j whereupon Mr. G. W. Thames was party, suppressed hi wrath. Soon j unanimously elected to fill the vacancv. after he mentioned the matter quietly to one of the party and expressed his feelings quite freely as to the manner in which he had been treated, when the other replied. 'Why, he.11 calling the name of the man who had made the offensive remarks, "is the Yankeist Yankee of the party. He was born in Pennsylvania and came here with the Union army in 1865."
