Une of the Mayor's party friends called upon him yesterday to congratulate him upon the yood fight be had made, He was prompted to the call by the Democratic story that New York wusall right.

Looking back throuch the Council proceedings it appears that the second scheme Was ill-advised, and that the chancesare that it will make him more enemies than. the first onedid, from the fact that alt bills, of what- soover churacter, must first be audited by the Finance Committee of the Council. ‘This leaves tho ‘8 jal policeman” out in the cold, practically, for itis not belfeved that the Committee willever agroe to pay any such claims, especially when there is a doubt as to their legality. Honor ought to have known the situation when contracting the bills in ques- tion, and in view of this it is not belioved that the dodge will make him many friends. MORE MILK CONJECTURES. The Chemist of the Health Department yester- day submitted the resultjof the aualyses of fifty- one sampies of milk. which he has made in the last few weeks. The report abounds in figures, aud closes as follows: “You a ee we to congratuiute you upon the improved appexrance which this report bears when compared with the former one. Then sixteen samples were pure, thirty-four below the standardy. here thirty- seven are pure, eight almost so, and but five tobe distinctly objected to." The dealers inthe impure article are put down as follows: H. Rohr, C. 8. Wilcox, J. Letler, K. Langobr, Fred Smitouska, Wliliam Thompson, A. H. Dick- man, G. H. Peck, H. Dirks, Witliam Shepperd, Barney Cool, F.N. Prest, and John Sthile. Smit- ouska and Shepperd are charged with watoring their stuff, and the offense of tho others Is said toconsistof skimming their goods. The law- breaking individuals, it is announced, are to be prosecuted, but thero is nothing in the ap-* nouncement calculated tochoer the milk-con- sumer. Hoe can take the report, for what itis worth, and Change bis milk-dealer or not, as he Pigeees fee the chancesare that ho will not better ‘imself. The facts are that the Milk-Inspector hus always known that the milk sold was not what it ought to be, and the Chemist’s report can only be taken as corroborative testimony. ‘I'ho In- ctor, for instance, says that he knows that immed, swill, and watered milk is und has been sold, but he claims that he is powerless to resent it, which ought to suggest to Dr. De olf and the Mayor the necessity.of a change and the employment of some one who can. ‘These analyses aro useless, under the circum- stances, from the fact. that they prove nothing which is not already known,and which tho In- -spector does not deny, and tho sooner they ure done away with and something practical dono jeoking te: giving the consumers pure milk the ter.

STAUBER-—W’GRATH. THE LAST MOVE IN THE CONTEST. ‘The motion for‘a new trinl and to have Stauber made a party inthe Stauber-McGrath case came up before Judge Moran yesterday morning. Mr. Reynulds madv a trotion to have Frauk A. Stauber made a purty to the suit, and to have judgmentin bis favor. The grounds ou which the motion was made were, first, because §gauber had previously besn Alderman, and by Jaw was to hold the office until hia successor wa3 elected, and, no euccessor buving yet been elected, he was still rightly in offico; and, sec- ond, because ithad been decided thut McGrath hud usurped the office, and Stauber boing Me- Grath’s only opponent, must therefore huve been elected. Judge Lefingwoll objected on the following principal grounds: Bocause the said petition and motion are not made in apt or proper time; the application was not made unui all the testl- mony of the respondent had been offered to the Jury, and hiscase was about to be submitted to the jury; that no tssue upon the part of thesaid Stauber had been inade or formed and submit- ted to the Jury as to his right to the office; that no evidence was offered by bimtothe jury, or was attempted to be ofored, in support of his right to sald office before the Jury retired to consider of their verdict: the Jury impaneied in the case baving heard all the evidence offered by pecither Party. and | paving received their instructions from tho Court, without the sald Frank A. Stauber having been made a Party thereto, or tending any issue to the respondent as to said Stauber's right to said office, have returned into cuurt, on the 4th day of November, 1859, a verdict of gullty against the said respondent in the said cause ‘as it was orginally instituted and the issues formed eftage Leftingwell ded fue ingwell contended that the applica- Hon of Staubef to be made party was mude too late, after the case had gono to the jury, and t there wus no law or authority authorizing such a proceeding. The statute provided, it was that’ where the rights of ‘divers be determined the Court might gite such persons to come in and iry their respective rights to euch office or fran- chise. But such permission was in the dis- cretion of the Court, and certainly could not be allowed after the verdict. 1f Stauber was to be allowed to come in, time should nave been given to McGrath to plead to such new information. At present, ifStauber was allowed to file his tition, it would be against nobody, for the jury had already p: on McGrath's rights. uch a proceeding would be entirely unheard of. ‘The Judge admitted it was AN ANAMALOUS PROCEEDING, but wanted to know if the statute did not war rant it, and also asked for authorities. Both counsel said they could not find any authority either in Bngiand or this country ex- actly on the point. Dir. Prenderga! a8 esto] from on to argue that MoGrath iy nice opped fF i ting the clovtion. fis pieas that it was a valid one; and that Stau- was bis only opponent. McGrath having been proved to bea deurper, of necessity Stau- ber was then the Alderman-elect. Besides, Mc- -Grath’s rights bad already, been passed upon, ‘and it now made no difference to bim who claimed the place. The statute was broad enough to allow any party interested to come in at apy time, and the namo of Stauber bad been purposely kept out as long as possible, 80 a3 to obviate the objection that had been made that a contest on the same sub- ject was pending in the Common’ Council be- tauber and McGrath. iene. ‘Moran said be had no doubt about the right to allow Stauber to ile his intervening peti- tion, but the trouble wasas to the manner in. which it should be done. Itwas manifestly tho inten- tion of the Logisiature. in the enactment of tho Statute on Informations, to avold a multiplicity of suits. Without the sid of any authorities, it seemed that Stauber was entitled, under the statute and fo equity, to come in and be made a party to the’suit. Due ro; for the public Rnd the municipaiity. required that the vacant office should be filled as soon as possible. The motion to file an intervening petition would, therefore, be allowed, ‘Mr. Prondergast asked what would be done with the motion for new trial. Judge Leftingwell said he didnot wisn to argue it,and it was then overruled. Counsel then moved in arrest of judgment, but this, too, was overrulod, und a judgment of ouster rendered aguinst rath, a nce ‘Leffingwell prayed an appeal, which was lowed. ‘The counsel said the bond shoutd ony be large enough to cover costs, as the office of Alderman was nota salaried one. True, there was some money in it for some mon, but a Judge could not inquire into the amount of such emoluments and profits in order to increase the amount of tho bond. . Judge Moran seemed to be of the samo opin- ion, and the bond was fixed at $250, which must be filed in twenty days. Until the bond is filed McGrath will have to "keep out of the Council, as the judgment of ouster is in full force against bim, but as soon ‘as it fs filed it suspends the execution of the judgment, and ne can go on and act as Alder~ man as hitherto. Mr. Prendergast satd be did not desire to push the matter as regards Stauber's rights at present, but would Ict it stand in statu quo. ‘The term of court closes; huwever, this week, and the petition will have to be disposed of in some way during the present term. , ASHES. ENFORCING THE ORDINANCE. Commissioner De Wolf yesterday took tho first steps toward the enforcement of the “ash ordinance,” which was passed some months ago. It provides that fron vessels shall be used for the depositing of ashes, and is a species of spe- cial Jecistation, to which somo objection has al- ready been raised. The following section is the important one: In the seotion of the city bounded on the north by the Main Branch of the Chicago River, on tho west by tho South Branoh of said river, on the east by tho lake, and on the south by Twelfth street, all vessels for the deposit of ashes sball be of Iron, with a cover of the same material, to be always kept in good condition, and when of ater capacity than two bushels, ahall be cylin- rical in form, with handdles at the sides mid- way from top to bottom, and no ashes or garbage shall be deposited in tho section of the city aforcsnid after 7 o'clock a.m., and the vessels containing them shll be removed within the premises as soon as they have been emptied by the scavengers, wherever, in the absence of Heys, 1b is neck y to place them on the side- walk or streets; and it shull be the duty of owu- ers or agents of premises, where more than two tenants occupy the same buildiuz to provide the vessel, or a sufficient number of them, for containing alltho ushes to be deposited daily from such building, and the fine provided for in this section may be recovered against the own- ers, agents, or tenants of such bullding. The penaity for a violauon of the ordinance js a fino of & for each and every offense, but since the persons affected were not made aware of its provisions the violators wili not be prosecuted for several days, it being only fair that persons should have a reasonable time to comply with its provisions. In the meantime, however, it is proposed to see that the wooden receptacics for ashes are removed from the sidewalke, which will be’so much gained. THE BAR ASSOCIATION. BIOGRAPHICAL LECTURES. A fairty well-attended meeting of the Bar As- sociation was held yesterday afternoon in tne Fairbank Music-Hall, Mr. William H, King pre- siding. i : The names of A.C. Story and Ephraim Ban- ning were submitted for clection as members of the Association, and Mr. Banning was elected. Mr. Robeet Hervey, Chairman of the Special Committee on Lectures, read a lenghty report, which was to havo beon presented to the Associ- ation tust Juno, but which was held over. In it were detailed the efforts made to secure biographical lectures upon the Bench and Bar of Ullinois by sov- eral of 1ts oldest members, of which the open- ing one was delivered some months ago by the Hon. Ieano N. Arnold... The report showed that favorable answers hud been received to applications made to the - Hon. James C. Conkling, of Spriugfield, If; Judge f. Lyle Dickey, J. ¥. Senmmon, Thomas Hoyno, Grant Goodrich, Joseph Gillespie, of Edwards- ville, IL, una B. C. Cook, who had agreed to de- liver a lecture upon the Icpal and political career of the late Norman C. Judd. On motion of Judge Bradwell, Mr. Robert Hervey was invited to deliver a_biographical lecture before the Association. The invitation was accepted. A vote was bad on the proposed amendment to the by-laws proeidins that the election of members should be left to the fommittes on Admissions, their unanimous recommendation to be considered an election. The amendment fuiled of udoption. Mr. J. J. Knickerbocker offered tho following: Resolved, That the Committee on Amendment of the Law be requested to consider and report to this Association at its next regular meeting whether or not In their judgment any chango is. desirable in the system as now provided by law for drawing Grand Jurors, and if so in what purticulars, and that they report with recom- mendations, if any they have to make. < He suid that he had not much to say on tho subject just now. He did not wish to criticise the County Board, but be thought thatif more care were exercised the Grand Juries might be g improves. “fhe resolution was adopted. Mr. Knickerbocker also offered the following: Reevired, That it be declared to be the sense of the Association that the siness of the Superior and Circuit Courts of thts county would be greatiy facilitated by the formation of a separate trial-calendar for appeal cases in each of said courts. ‘The resolution was, on motion of Mr. Rubens, referred toa special committes, who were re- quested to consult with the Judges im regard to the matter, and to report at un early date. The Chair appointed as such committee, Messers. Rubens, Knickerbocker, und Hervey, ‘The meeting thon adjourned. DR. THOMAS. GETTING HIS COUNSEL.

Dr. Thomas, to prepara which acommittee was appointed by the last Confer- ence, nor willit be known what they are until they come into tho hands of Presiding-Elder - Willing, who will furnish @ Copy of them td the alleged heretic. Dr. Thomas has thus fartaken no steps towards preparing his defense, as he is inthe dark as to the Committce’s work. He, however, it is understood, hus usked the Rev. Mr. Trusdell, the Rev. Mr. Shepherd, and the Rev, Mr. Axtell to help him, and they have, it is suid, consented to doit. The trial will probably tke place in December or January., In the ali oie Doce: will proach, as is known, at Hooley’s Theatre every Sunday morning,— for the nrst time.to-day. ia z SUNDAY PAPERS, : Apropos of Dr. Thomas, Tue Tarpune pub- Msbes ia this connection an interview with him in yesterday’s Albance on the subject of Sunday newspapers, It sepeare that. some of the re- lgious exchanges of the Alliance have criticised it because it delivers its issue containing Swing’s anc ‘fhomas’ sermons to its city subscribers Sunday evening. In order to secure the opinion. of the reNgious publicin regard to the Sunday paper, a representative of the Alliance was sent to interview several prominent Inymen and some nuinisters in regard to the matter. Dr. Thomas’ opini iy the subiest areas follows: at do you think of Sunda: rs?” said the reporien eae “Well, i first ‘gan reading Sunday papers during the War.
