At Portsmouth (opposite Norfolk) there was a mitary encampment. tirstin order to be seen, the white tents of which were eee ta di powed through a fine grove of native pines in th bborhood of the Naval Hospital. Seven com- es were on the gronnd: The Portsmouth Ri- he Old Dominion ional Greys, Capt. the Marion Riflemen, Capt. Hodes ; the rds, Capt. Godwin ; the Dismal Swamp Banger, Capt: Choate; and the Norfolk Light Anillery Blues, Capt Corprew. From the character of the dress parade of these companies we judge that there isa great degree of military spirit kept w rg tas died out in other places druling was indeed remarkably uave done infinite credit to cities of The Portsmouthers seem to have cme on Independence Day, spending it amongst chess pines. where an address was delivered by quartermaster Maj. C. W. Murdaugh ; the De- caration of Independence was read Capt. D 4 Godwin, and a Poem was recited by Dr. J. M. Covert Afterwards there was a dress parade, followed at night by fireworks and music . Bot we missed all this; also the bea se of beanty upon the ground. The citizensclaim that there is not a plain looking woman in Ports- mouth, and we fully believe it,—we do sin- comely On this (Sunday) morning there was a general movement towards the Eacampment, to hear a srrmon there to be delivered by Rev. Charies A. avis, formerly of Washington, who is now sta- tuned at Portsmouth as Naval Chaplain.

Mitchell commanding, will commence running regularly to Old Point and Norfolk on to-morrow, leaving this city bh Wednesday and Saturday, and returning will leave Norfolk every Monday and 1 Seip toncbing each <7 at Piney Poiut, Old Point, Blakistone’s Island, and the Potomac tandings. We think it discreditable to our city and to Norfolk that direet communication has not hith- erto been encouraged and maintained between the two Cities. By the Maryland the trip to or trom Nortulk ean Le made for $5, or $1.50 less than by the way of Baltimore or Richmond, and in three hours less time than either of these routes. The river route is certainly the most agreeble. as well as the cheapest and’ most expe- ditious, and the enterprise of Capt. Mitchell is, we are cert ; bound to prosper. Boarp oF ALDREMEN.—The Board held its Tegniar weekly meeting yesterday afternoon. A communication was received from the Mayor transmitting the report of the Intendant of the Washington Asylum for the month of June; re- ferred to asylum committee. ‘The Chair presented a memorial from the man- agers of the Metropolitan Mechanics? Institate in relation to building a hall in connection with the proposed market house ; referred to finance com- mittee. This memorial bas already anpeared in the columns of the Star. Mr. Riggs, from finance committee, reported adversely on the bill for the relief of Jos. Ratcliffe, and the bill was rejected. Mr. eth from the same committee, reported baek the bill in relation to paying interest upon over-drafts upon the Bank of Washington, with an amendment; which was adopted, and the bill passed Mr. Riggs, from same committee, reported back the bill fixing the rate per cent of taxes for the fixeal year, with an amendment striking out the 10 per cent. discount on yen yments, pro- posed by the Council bill, and inserting 8 per cent.; adopted. Mr. Smith moved to make the rate of taxation 05 cents on the hundred dollars, instead of 75 cents as —— by the bill. Nir. iggs expressed his belief that not a single improvement could be made unless the rate of taxation was increased beyond 65 cents. There was the appropriation of $5,000 for the Long Bridge repairs; and there was from $35.000 to $50,000 tobe raised for the construction of a new Asylum. He was.in favor of raising a sum of. at least, $100,000 to put the affairs of the Corpora- tion npon a satisfactory footing. Mr. flouston expressed himself as op d to raising the rates, and gave it as his decided con- viction that no property in this city, with the ex- ception perhaps of some particularly well located on Pennsylvania avenue, could afford to pay atax of one per cent.. as it might be called upon to pa’ if the raising of the rates was to be persevered in. Mr. Riggs reminded the gentleman that Phila delphia paid a tax of 2 per cent., and New York 1 oA cent. Mr. Dove put it to the member from the Fifth Ward that he had voted for lavish expenditures in that Ward. Mr. Houston denied the soft impeachment ; had only kept silent when others advocated voted for such expenditure. Mr. Dove. “ Silence gives consent.°? Mr. Smith defended his amendment, and de- manded why. if a higher rate was necessary, they Were not furnished by the Mayor with an exact statement of the condition of the Corporation finances. Mr. Riggs thought M-. Smith’s theory hardly tallied with his practice; he having introduced some of the most extravagant fire bills ever pre- sented bere Mr. Smith owned up, in part, tothe indictment, but plead that he was not aware then that the city was bankrupt as would now appear to be the ease Mc. Riggs thought the cheapest way for corpo- rations as well as individuals was to pay their debts at once the time with the Cor- poration stock above par and sought after, to raise he money hecessary to put the Corporation af- fairs ona pee basis. He explained how through their inability to obtain the accounts of the late Collector it was impossible to furnish a state- iment of the Corporation’s financial position. Not @ pen stroke could they get from the ex-Collector to show what he has received or paid over, He urged that the introduction of water into the ei (perhaps next year) by the Gevernment aqueduct. thouch of incalculable benefit to the city, would | necessitate 4 preliminary expenditure of perhaps Blw!.000 to provide drainaye for the waste water The question was further debated by Messrs. Suujth, Pearson, Riggs, Dove and Houston ‘The latter expressed himself in favor of going before the people, to see if they would vote to Faise a loan of 150.000. which in his opinion was the least suim that would suttice to meet the obli- gations of the city. The genera! assessment next year would probably rate the value of city proper- ty at double if not quadruple its present assessed value, and would thus afford a suficient taxable basis upon which tu raise the desiied sui ‘The vote being taken on the question of striking ont 75 and inserting 65 cents on the hundred dol. Jars, it was lo ayes 6. hoes 7. _ Mr. Clark moved as an amendment the follow- ing : *: Provided, ‘That five cents of said tax be placed to the credit of the school fund, and to be used for no other than school puzposes.”? Mr. Riggs moved asa substitute for this amend- ment the following - “That in addition to the above named tax there be levied and collected an additional special tax of five cents on the one lundred dollars to be collected as provided in this bill, to be appro- | sows and used exclusively for Public School nthiseity.”” [This substitute would raise the me me taxation to SU cents on the hundred dol- rs. i The amendment of Mr Riggs was adopted. Mr. Clark moved to strike out 75 cents and in- sert 70 cents; lost. Mr. Miller moyed to reconsider the vote laying ao tax of five cents fur school purposes; carried. The qnestion then recurring on the amend- ment, it was lost.

Mr. Sinith moved to strixe out 75 cents and in- sert 6: ; lost. Mr. sinith moved to strike out lost Prior to the vote being taken on the bill. Mr. Evans delined bis position, ex ressing his opin- jon that with a tax less than 2B cents Wwe cannot carty ou the affairs of the Corporation. While he Was opposed to the Mayor politically, he conld not eanseut to embarrass him by what he con- ceived to be petty opposition, and he should vote aye.on the bill. Messrs.
