Boarp or Atpenuen.—The Board held its meeting last evening. ills for the relief of Wealthy M. Hanson, James Addison and William B. Jackson were pazsed; also a bill for the erection of azhed at the west end of the Western market. The police committee was discharged from the consideration of Council bill chan ing the line of the election precincts of the Third and Fourth Wards, and the bill was rejected. A bill was passed granting the use of a por- tion of Centre Market space to Cornelius Shawn for equestrian pu , from Dec: ber 24, 1856, to March 5, 1857, and permitting bim to erect a temporary wooden building thereon, providing he deposit $100 weekly in advance, and that the structure shall be re- moved whenever the Mayor shall deem it a nuisance or in the way of the market. Mr Busey, from police committee, reported Council bill regulating markets, with amend- ments; one of which proposed to raise the price for license of butchers in the Centre market from forty to sixty dollars, and making the-license of butchers in the other markets uniform at twenty-five dollars; the amend- ments of the committee were adopted. Mr. Evans moved an amendment giving the Commissioners of the Northern Market a sala- ry of $100 He went on to explain what im- provements had been brought about at this market, mainly through the labors of these Commissioners, and the increased revenue thereby accruing to the city treasury. The revenue of that market was increased from $1,500 to $3,150 Mr. Busey denied the correctness of the fig- ures. The present revenue he learned was only $1,100, and the increase was only pros- pective in case the stalls should be all rented and the licenses increased, when it was ex- ted that the revenue would aimount to 2,600 He thought if the salaries were al- lowed the Commissioners of markets it would be requisite to give salaries to Trustees of Public Schools and members of the Board of Health. The amendment was further debated and rejected. Mr. Houston moved to strike out $60 and in- sert $40 as the license to be paid by butchers inthe Centre Market. He thought this enough to pay for the wretched accommodations af- forded. The amendment was adopted: after which the bill was perfected and passed. Bills for the relief of Benjamin T. Beers, Ann Smoot and Phillip Krafft were passed; also a bill authorising Nicholas Acker and others to use @ portion of the pavement of North Capitol street. Joint resolution authorizing the Mayor to test the utility of the iron pump manufactured by Foster Henshaw was adopted. The appropriation bill was received from the lower Board. Mr. Ruff moved to strike out the appropri- ations for compensation to the commissioners of the Third, Fourth, Fifth and Sixth Wards, and the Intendant and Physician of the per raps he amendment was lost—ayes 6, noes 7. The appropriation bill was then passed— ayes 8, noes 5. Couneil bill, providing for the improvement of Eleventh street west, across M street nortb; Mr. Evans introduced a bill appropriating $500 for the purpose of ceiling the Northern Market: passed The Board then adjourned. Sr. Jogy’s Association ror raz Revier or tae Poor.—This Association held its ninth annual meeting on the 5th day of the present mouth, (Novewber,) when the managers re- sumed their labors of love and mercy, which justly reflect so much credit upon both head and heart. They report that during the past year they have sided and relieved 110 fami- lies, and distributed 178 garments. Their parish school contains 50 children, though, owing to sickness and the severity of tho wea- ther, the attendance has not been so regular during the last year as usual. They have a regular teacher, who instructs these poor little lambs of the flock in the wseful and necessary branches of an English education. Thrice a a week they receive religious instruction, and on the Sabbath attend school at Saint Juha’s eburcb. The following report of the Treasurer (Jos Smith, Esq.) will show how the funds of the Sosiety have been obtained and in what man- ner expended during the year ending October 31, 1856 Receipts—Alms at the Holy Communion, $632.61; weekly collectians, $641 50; sub- scriptions and donatioas, $331 50 ; from the treasurer of the parish, by vote of the vestry, $200; total during the year, $1,805 61; bal- ance from last year, ,$106.36; total assets, $1,911.97. Expenditares—For clothing, bedding, &c., for the poor, $90 77 ; pensioners of the parish, for rent, board, &0., $213.54; for groceries, $196 14; for wood, $494 28 ; for shoes, $44 62; funeral expense, $488; assistant minister's salary, from October 18 to May 30. inclusive, $371.65; parish school, for teaching, $120; for rent, $96; for books, fuel; furniture, &c., $33 30; total, $1,665.18; leaving a balance on hand of $246 79. Taz Pustic Scaoors 1x Wassinaton Counry.—At a meeting in Washington county, at Hopston, November 24th, Asa bitney was appointed Chairman, and J. C. Lewis Secre- ter a very full examination of the pro- posed Schoo! Law, it was unanimously— Resolved, That we consider the proposed School Law objectionable in several respects. First. It makes the amount of tax impora- tive whether it be needed or not. Second. That it does not allow the inhabit- ants of the districts the privilege of selecting the location of their own school-houses, or of electing their own officers That we therefore object to the proposed law, but will use our influence to procure a law more in accordance with the wants of the inhabitants of the county asking Congress to be as liberal towards us as = the inhabitants of the States and Territo- ies. In view of the importance of common echools— Resolved, That Joshua Pierce, Charles G. Page. Henry Naylor, Chas. Fletcher of Kalo- rama, and Asa Whitney, be a committee to ealla general meeting of the inhabitants of the county, at sach time and place as they may deem proper, to take into consideration meartures nesessary to establish a desirable scbool system __ teselved, That the proceedings of this meet- ing be published in the Washington city pa- pers.

Cz Maxxer.—We noticed this morning that efforts are making to afford more cor- fortable positions for reonus Who occupy stands in the market. The roof is being re- _ and new tin gutters placed upon it. he contractors for laying the payments and setting the curb on the south side of market space are now arranging their materials for the work, and the dealers are expecting that they will be cared for during the inclemency of the winter.

Up vor Proranity.— Last night, something of a disturbance was created at Schadd’s res- taurant on the Avenue, in consequence of a breeze kicked up by two colored persons from New York whom the bar-keeper had refused to supply with liquor. These men, named Wm. and John Wedge—having used come profane and insulting language, an attempt was made to put them out, and a fracas en- sued, which resulted in the arrest of the bar- keeper, Jas Platz, and the two above named. They were taken before Justice Hollingshead by Officer Reynolds, and after a hearing of the evidence Platz was dismissed, and the two Wedges made to pay a fine and costs of $3 19 eaon for profanity. Tae Democratic CeLEBRATION on THURS- pay Nigut.—Very general preparations are being made by our citizens to participate in the procession and illumination of Thureday night, and all the indications point to a page- ant of much more than crdinary effect It is of importance that the i!lumination should be general, and that concert of action should be observed as to the time of the display. Our country friends in Maryland and Vir- ginia are. we hear, preparing to be present in force on Thursday night, and, should the day be a fine one, there will undoubtedly be a most effective display.
