iy 4 1 SCAL INTELLIGENCE, Boarp or ALDERMEN.—At the time of meet- ing yesterday afternoon, the members came dropping in dressed in appropriate summer costume, and with their Aldermanic propor- tions apparently somewhat wilted and dimin- ished by the fierce dog-day heat now prevail- ing atside the railing was an unusual number of spectators, many of them evidently being on the anxi seat, in regard to the action of the Board upen the nominations sent in by the Mayor. The Board having been called to order, the standing committees were announced as fol- lows: Committee on Finance—Messrs. Houston, Riggs, and Evans. mprovements—Messrs. Emery, Smith and Bayly. aie ieee Busey, Dove and Ruff. P Claims—Messrs. Pearson, Bayly and Tret- er. Schools—Messrs. Ruff, Riggs and Evans. Fire Department—Messrs. Smith, Emery and Miller a Elections—Mesars. Evans, Miller and Pear- son Unfinished Business—Messrs. Tretler, Dove and Moore. JOINT COMMITTEES. Asylum—Messrs. Smith, Moore and Hous- ton. Health of City—Messrs. Busey, Tretler and Miller W harves—Messrs. Ruff and Moore. Enrolled Bills—Mr. Bayly. Accounts of Register—Mr. Smith. Money Accounts of the Corporation—Mr. jusey. Tor Count and Destroy Due Bills—Mr. Dove. To attend to the interests of the Corpora- tion before Congress—Messrs. Houston, Riggs and Evans. Mr. Pearson that there should be & committee to examine the eligibility of as- sessors; and the chair appointed Messrs Smith, Bayly, and Tretler on that committee A communication was received from the Mayor in relation to the unsatisfactory condi- tion of the books —— wrssay ad “sy = mga alse, in regard to the injury done by the heavy rains; referred to finance committee. The report of the inspector of fire apparatus for the month of May was received, and re- ferred to the fire department committee. Petitions were received and referred, and reports from committees called for. Houston, from finance committee, re- rted a bill for the assessment of taxes for 856, imposing a tax of sixty cents on the hundred dollars, of real and personal prop- erty, &c., &c., and asked its immediate con- sideration. It was urged by Messrs Miller, Dove, Bay- ly, and others, that sixty cents on the hun- dred dollars would raise an insufficient amount to carry on the business of the Corporation, and was calculated to embarrass the opera- tions of the Mayor. Various amendments were offered, but were rejected by the majority. Mr. Busey thought they should reduce the expenses of the Corporation, instead of rais- iug the rates of taxation The office of com- missioner of health might be abolished. At the time of establishing the office of commis- sioner of health it was contended by the gen- tlemen on the other side of the chamber that it would prove a source of revenue to the Cor- poration Mr. Miller said it was not the fault of the law, but of the commissioner, that the fines had not been imposed, and the office made a self-sustaining one. Now that a man had been appointed who would carry out the law to the letter, it was proposed to repeal it. A communication from the Mayor in rela- tion to the finances of the corporation was read, in which it was stated that if the eredi- tors of the corporation were to be paid and impiovement: carried on it would be requi- site to lay the tax at the maximum allowed by the charter—three quarters of one per cent Un motion of Mr. Bayly, the Mayor’s com- munication was ordered to be printed with the proceedings Alter further discussion, and the rejection of various amendments, the tax bill was passed. Council bill making an appropriation to pay commissioners of election was p A joint resolution of the Council directing the Register to furnish new members with « copy of the laws of the corporation, was taken a P Mr. Busey moved as an amendment that the police of each ward be furnished with a copy, such copies to be delivered to their suc- cesgors in office; adopted, and the resolution assed Council bill for repairing footways on east side of Eleventh street, between G@ and H north, was referred tu improvements commit- tee A communication was received from the Mayor, eontaining hisnominations ; on motion of Mr Smith, it was laid on the table, and made the special order for the next me€ting of the Board. On motion of Mr. Busey, the thirty fifth tule was amended so that the question of con- firmation of the Mayor’s nominations shall, on demand, be taken by ayes and noes, in- stead of by ballot. Mr. Busey introduced a resolution request- ng the Mayor to inquire into the cause of the delay in the completion of the Washington and Alexandria Kailroad, and to communi- cate to the Board whether in his judgment any further legislation is requisite to protect the corporation from loss. Mr. Smith introduced a bill for the appoint- ment of a Board of Realth; referred to pulice committee. Also, a bill to crganize a police eyatem for the city of Washington ; referred t» same committee. Mr. Smith introduced a joint resolution in relation to the communication of the Mayor to the Circuit Court reflecting apon the police officers, and which reflections the resolution designated as uncalled for and unmerited. The resolution was laid upon the table. On motion of Mr. Busey, the use of thecham- ber was granted to the grand jury during the present session The Chair introduced a bill providing for the registration of all persons in the city of Washington subject to a school-tax; referred to the police committee. The Chair introduced a preamble and joint resolution in relation to the mode of voting by certificate ; referred to election committee A communication was received from the City Collector requesting the appointment of & messenger in his department ; also, that his rooms be supplied with mattings and other Tequisites ; also, that the expensesof employ- ing additional assistance in consequence of the new law be allowed him; referred to claims committee The report of the Intendant of the Wash- ington Asylum for the month of May, from which it appears that twelve persons were re- ceived during the month, was received and referred to the asylum committee. And then the Board adjourned. Tee Axkest or Moorz.—Sunday night, information was given to Captain Mills of the auxiliary guard, that Moore, Croggin, Bailey aud Kay, were intown. There being but few of the guards near the station, the Captain sent to the jail for Mr. Jas. Ward, and such assistance as he could bring. When Mr. Phil- lips with the jail guards arrived at the stativn, the Captain detailed Messrs. F Ward and Daw ot the guards at the station, and Drum and Dove of the near beat, Messrs. Stoops and Burkhardt fell in as they went on the track. The men stationed themselves to prevent the €scape of any person from the back building, in which Moore was believed to be concealed. The jail guards went in and called to him to get up. fe appeared to be much frightened, and begged the guards to spare hislife. Moore Was taken to the guard house by watchmen Drum aud Dove, aud the others went in search of the remaining three. Some traces were obtained which may yet lead to their capture. Great Arrraction.—We learn that Sig- nora Danzi, from Milano, will give a soiree musicale, in Carusi’s Saloon, on next Friday night. Ler concerts in Berlin, Vienna, Paris, etc , were crowned with the greatest succezs, aud she appears here supported by three of the best artists. Tac Lavies will find in the advertisement of our friend Stevens, in another columu, mat- ter of special interest to themselves. They Will Gud the goods there offered worthy their *pecial attention, “ie A Very Destrasie Littun Faru.—The tract of land advertised im the Star by Robert Ball, administrator, to be sold on hursday next, is well known to the editor, who does not hesitate to call attention to it as be one of the most desirable places of the kind within It is situated rs ag 2 of Washi: within a mile and a of the Virginia end of the Georgetown aqueduct. The soil is naturally good, and is now si ible of the highest improvement It is 1 watered, Dallding sites upon it Altogeder, we donot a it. er, we do not know its Rapaioe ae here for one who de- sires such a place. It is positively to be sold as adv. , and can probably be obtained at a great bargain. Tux Nationa Tazatae.—Kunkel’s Opera Troupe is now in the full tide of successful operation at the National, keeping the town wide awake this drowsy, dog-day weather, with their inimitable mirth- i songs, dances, and bu: ues. We cordi com- mend this place of entertainment to citizens and strangers as just the place to get filled to the brim with pleasurable emotions at a time of the year when most other amusements are voted heavy and uncongenial The Kunkel’s are deservedly popular with the ladies, since with all the comic originality and burlesque of the Troupe, there is never mingled ought to offend the refined taste. For the care ex- ercised in this respect we think the Kunkel’s cannot be too much applauded. It will be seen by the advertisement that a rich bill is offered to-night. Uxuicensep Pawnsroxers. — Complaints have been made that persons operatin, pawnbrokers without license have established themselves in this city. Persons have lost articles of jewelry, &c., and suspect that their property has been obtained by those persons. No evidence can be given that they have them, or they would be brought up for an of- fence against the criminal law. The officers have taken the matter in hand, and intend te ferret out the parties. They will be tried upon the Corporation cases, for following this business without a license. The penalty for every offence is a fine of forty-five dollars. Tax Streets anv Gurrers —For some time past but little attention has been given to the condition of certain streets and gutters. We bear much complaint from various parts of the city, and have been juested to call the attention of the city officers to them. The new officers will soon enter upon the discharge of their duties, and we hope they will use every effort to give entire satisfaction. They will have much to do at first in removing the accumulations, but that having been done, it will not require much exertion to keep the neglected places clean. TatrD District Potice —Justice Hollings- head, yesterday, disposed of the following cases: Wm Fo: ting his wife; secu- rity for peace. Margaret Lonmx, Flizabeth Shorter, and Charles Shorter, Jr., assault unc threats; do. Frances Penny, Ellen Dade and Isabella Penny, threats and disturbing the peace ; security for further hearing. S.J son, Eliza Johnson, Jno Sims, Ma: max and George Lomax, fighting and assault ; security for peace. Mauicious Miscurer.—A garden on Eley- enth street, belonging to the Attorney Gen- eral, we believe, and handsomely ornamented with fruit and other trees, has become a mark for the boys in that neighborhood, who have broken the fence and mutilated some of the finest trees. The names of some of them are known, and they will be punished for their malicious mischief. Born Ovenzoarp.—Last night, a colored woman named Butler, who had been looking for her son who was out after hours. walked into the canal near the bridge on Maryland avenue. Her screams for help were heard by another woman, who went to her assistance ; but she, too, making a misstep, fell into the canal. Both wero rescyed after some floun- dering in the water. Come, why wili you suffer all the ills of bed- bugs, cockroaches, moths, ants, and every other species of insects when Lyon’s Magnetic Powder will surely rid your house of all such pestilence.

Crimixat Count.—The case of Lynus San- ford, who is charged with robbery, was tried to day, and resulged in a verdict of “not guilty.” Tue Panorama of China and Japan, on ex- hibition at [ron Hall, is highly spoken of by all who have seenit.

Daring our wanderings we have discovered a much greater number of private improve- ments gring on than we had imagined. Con- siderable property has also changed owners during the last month orso. Among the more important sales during the last few days is the large and handsome residence of the late Dr, O M. Linthicum, on Third street, to Henry King, Esq., secretary to the Potomac Insu- rance Company, for $4,950. Our old friend Mr. Vanderwerken, of the Union Line of Omnibuses, seems to be deter- mined to afford his patrons every comfort in the way of neat, clean, and comfortable coach- es that human skill can afford. On or about the 4th of July he will have ready to place upon the line between our oy and the Capi- tol some ten as handsome coaches of the kind ag ever ran on any street. In a conversation with Mr. Thomas M. Wilson, the teacher of the Second District School in your city, and who is a resident of ours, we learn that a slight mistake uninten- tionally occurred in the notice in the local columns of the Star, on Cyokie J of the difi- culty which he had with one his pupils— Davis. The boy did not snap the pistol at him; but while he was in the act of drawing it from his pocket, Mr. Wilson discovered the handle of it, and immediately seized hold of bis hand and wrested it from him before he bad an opportunity to use it The ladics (teachers) in the other parts of the buildin; were not aware of the difficulty until infor: by Mr. Wilson some time afterwards. Judging from present indications, the Demo- cratic ratification meeting which comes off this evening at Forrest Hall, under the man- agement of the Democratic Association, will be one of the most enthusiastic political meet- ingseverheldinourcity Some of the tallest speaking will be had which bas been heard iu these diggings for some time. The teachers of Trinity Church Sabbath Sohool are making quite extensive prepara- tious for their pic-nie in the College woods, on Thursday.
