Gronortown, D.C., July 16, 1800. At the meeting of the Board of Common Coun- cilon Friday i — all of the members r. m A m from the Mayor calling attention to the dilapi: condition of the arch on Second street, near High, and to the necessity of having @ gutter at the intersection of West and Congress streets, where a flagway has been laid lately, was referred to streets committee, and a message from the Mayor enclosing bill from Evening Star, to claims committee A statement from the Clerk of unexpended a Ppropriations (amounting to more than $19,000) ‘was referred to ways and means committee. A communication from Rev. Jos Aschwanden, itor of Trinity (Catholic) Church, was read, n which he complains of the late assessment of lot 272, High street; of lot 57 on First street, and other property of the church, the whole amount- ing to $4,300. and gives his reasons why he thinks said assessment should be reduced to $2.300. Mr. Williams, in presenti: the petition, re- marked that he did it with pleasure, and that be thought the lot attached tothe graveyard ought to be exempt from taxation. If it was an error, correct it; referred to grievances committee. A communication from the trustees of the poor and workhouse, asking to have a stand assigned them at the head of the market-house for the sale pbs. prqaenr &c., from that institution, was re- fer to market-house committee. Bill of Jos. Maril was referred to committee on pumps. The petition of Mr. Henry Ki asking relief from taxation on his house, which was injured by fire. was referred toa select committee—Messrs. Duntop, Hill and Williams. The petition of Thos. Evans, asking to have a stand opposite that of Mr. Coxe’s, at the head of the market, at the same rate as Mr. Coxe’s, was referred to committee c2 market-house. ‘The report of the trustees of the poor and work- house, stating the expenditures at $672 99, and the receipts at $55.95, for the quarter ending June 30, was referred to committee on poor and work- house A resolution to pay Messrs. Tenney, Godey and Pickrell, of the Board of Appeals; a resolution in favor of H. B. Walker; a resolution making it the duty of Wm. Marriet, keeper of Little Falls bridge, to blackwash the same ior a with gas tar, without other compensation t! his sal- ary, and if he refuses directing the Mayor to dis- miss him; a resolution directing the sale of certain town lots. and a resolution in relation to ends of Streets, were severally reported and laid over under the rules. . A resolution authorizing Mr. Henry King and Mr. Geo. Shoemaker to select suitable placés east and west of High street for keeping the hose and hose carriages of the Corporation, was passed. The conference commi! (Mr. — of said committee dissenting) reported an amendment to the police ordinance. which was mentioned at length in our letter of Saturday last. Mr. Tenney said, that as one of the committee, be had voted against the amendment. This pro- position (voting men out of office) wasa new feature in legislation. He had been in the Cor- poration many years, but had never seen any ceedings of this kind before; and never heard of such being adopted by any legislative body. He spoke at some length, characterizing it as a party measure altogether, and warned them that if the object was economy they might lose instead of geining by It, us the police were elected to serve @ full year, unless there was good cause for dis- missal by the mayor, that no complaints had been made to the proper place of their incompetency or iueffictency, and that they could, and would, if removed, sue the Corporation for their year’s sal- ary and recover it. Mir. Dunlop was doubtful of the validity of such action. We might repeal the law altogether, but there seemed to be difficulties in voting otficers out. He was in favor of the reduction. and in favor of this If it can be accomplished; but Le did not understand the difficuities in the way. Mr Stake could see no cause for suit’ We could jus: as well turn men out as put them in Government officers might claim to stay in the fall term of four years, but they were subject to removal at pleasure. Mr. Tenney replied, stating that in such cases the removal was made by the Executive, but who ever beard of the Senate or House of Representa- tives removing their officers, unless on charges made against them? Whoever heard of their balloting men out of office? He only wanted the board to consider, and not act hastily in this mat- ter. After further debate by Messrs Stake, Dunlop, and Tenney, during which Mr. Stake stated that Mr. Cox had drafted the amendment, and Mr. “Tenney stated that in conversation with Mr. Cox, he had mentioned Recorder Ould’s opinion, that men could not be removed until the expiration of their term of office, only to put other men in, and that Mr. Cox ipod dae }) and would have preferred the dismissal of two men; and Mr. Stade said, though he was willing to retain part of the poset force, he had seen parties openly —— he law laid down in the police regulations, an could not vote for them.
