Itisonly a short time Smee he became so strict in observing the letter of the law. Whena bill was up for laying the mains in Ninth street, he was strenuous in his forts to pass that bill. and did not ask about the ver centum to be refunded annnally. Mr M-. had Fijuired of the Corporation Attorney relative to t rs matter. and be was of opinion that the respon- sibility of the six per cent. was with the officers. it was for them to ascertain if the six per cent. was certain, and when they were satisfied, the mains would be laid; and if they were not, whether the ordinance was passed or not, the wains would not be patdown. He was satisfied that the mains would pay eighteen per cent., and hy a calculation based upon the quantity of water required in the construction of the gasometer at the new Gas works, it was ascertained that for a time it would pay twenty-five cent. Mr. Orme explained. that he favored the Ninth street main upon the ground that a Lope was before the board asking the mains to he laid as the street was graded Mr. Powell said that now that it was ascer- tained that the responsibility of the six per cent. proviso rested the Registrar and Purveyor, and not with the boards he was willing to pass as the work would not proceed till they sure of the per centage.

The law allows t wasbers. hand-hose, &e., to be used be- een sunrise and 7 o'clock, and sunset and one bour after. and only for fifteen minutes at x time, under a penalty of not legs than one nor more than five dollars for every offence. The bill was passed. THE CENTRE MARKET. The bill to improve the Centre Market was taken up, and Air.

Adopted. THE WATER REGISTRARS SALARY. A bill from the Aldermen, increasing the Regis- trar's salary to $2.000 and appropriating that sum, and also 31,000 for the Purveyor, was taken up. well explained that his opposition to the {when proposed was from no feeling of oppo- ston to Mr. Coyle, who was entitled to the and esteem of every man; but for the © then stated. and which he still regarded suticient. He made this explanation because ral of his friends had thought he opposed Mr. Coyle for other reasons. Mr. Edinonston said that the explanation 2s a by Mr. Powell would suit his case exac tly, aud he need say no more. Mr. Morgam said that as the Aldermen had sent this bill to the Board ina mutilated form, scarcely iateltigible. he would move that it be returned to that Board with the request that they would put it in an intelligible form before it is sent again to this Board. The motion After the transaction of other business, and waiting twenty minutes for the action of the Aldermen ou the water bids, the Board adjourned. (comMoUNicaTED.
