An act appropriating $20 to pavea north B street, at intersection of Firat east, wes - ill from the lower Board reducing the sala- ries of the Surveyor and Kegister, was appropri- ately referred. A resolution from the lower Board requiring the Mayor, members of the City Counclis, and employees of the ey Seppo. to take the same oath of allegiance to the Government which was taken by the members of the Board of Metropol- itan Police Commissioners, was taken up, whev Mr. Moore criticized the phraseology, and offered gn amendment siriking out all after the word take, and substituting therefor in substance that in addition to the oath prescribed in the charter, the ws named be required to take the oath of allegiance to the Government prescribed by the act of Congress approved Anguat 6th, 1°61, for personsin the civil servige of the Government.

Divn’r Lixe It.—In one square In the Novth- ern Liberties the patbizers with secession cluster rather thickly. but so unpopular are their sentiments in that intensely Union portion of the city, that they do not think It politic to protrude their views in any way likely to invite publicity. On the morning, succeeding the day when the rumors of the death of Jeff. ‘Davis ‘were afloat the thickest, the neighborhood was astonished to find every secession door-knob heavily draped in black erape The pres Soe manner, however, in which the strips of black were torn away by said bouse- keepers on being made aware of {ts presence, and the way they cussed at the ‘deed of darkness,” afforded ity fair evidence that they did not voluntarily bedeck their mansions in theemblems of woe for the supposed-to-be defunct head of “ secesb;” but that some mischievous parties had undertaken the job in their behalf. A Worp or Cavtion.—Last night a number of gentlemen were talking very excitedly at the corner of Seventh street and Louisiana avenue, and the subject of their discourse was the im- propriety of officers of the army taking objection- able females to places of amusement. It was said by them that an officer had taken two to Odd Fel- lows’ Hall, and walked in with one on each arm. Should such charge be proved, the officer at fault would msg? f lose his commission. We may add that it wonld greatly astonish the good wives, sisters, daugbters, mothers, and Sweethearts at home of many of the volunteer officers, could they see the sort of female compan- jonship said officers indulge in so openly and un- Diushingly in our streets and elsewhere. Rucovery oF a Jews_.—Last week, a soldier of one of our volunteer regiments paid a visit toa notable house “ by the way side” in the Seventh Ward, where were congregated a large number of very lively females, who appeared to be paasion- ately fond of wine and young men with well filled purses. The soldier made a reconnoisance of the company, and decided to capinte one who was a little tipsy, and whore jewelry was particularly attractive. He so far succeeded as to obtain from ber finger a ring valued at $150. She discovered her loss when the soldier had left. Detective otfi- cer Alien was sent for. and he managed to recover the ring from the soldier. The owner of the pro- perty was satistied to recover it, and leave the purlotoer tothe punishment he will receive in camp, and did not prosecute further. A Souprer KItiep Sunday, about noon, at the camp of Colonel Young’s r iment of Ken- tucky cavairy,a soldier named Henderson shot another named Walter with a revolver while the latter was performing guard duty. Walter fell at the feet of Sergeant Jos. H. Bryson, officer of the day, who bad to exert all bis decision to pre- vent an outbreak in the camp, which be was en- abled to do by his coolness and firmness He disari Henderson and bad bim arrested imme- diately. Walter wes shot under the right ear, and the ball lodged on the left side of bis jaw. He was conveyed to the hospitalyand there is but little prospect of his ultimate recovery. Perry Larcenizs —Petty thieves have grown quite bold within a few days, and complaints of toe loss of small articles from the fronts of stores, hats, umbrellas, &c., from passages and clothirg from drying lines are frequent. The police will peeeetty be pretty busy during the first weeks of service in di ing te petty thieves and recover- ing stolen goods he depots are numerous, and will not require much trouble to discover them, and the thieves are of a class not hard to capture. ANOTHER MiLitany Hospitat.—The large house near the Circle, in the First Ward, which ‘was occupied successively by Mr. Fox and other British Ministers, and by the Brazilian Minister, and which Os subsequently burned down and lately rebutit In a most substantial manner, has been occupied by the Government asa Military Hospital. It was opened about ten days since and already contains a considerable number of patients. Tue Ligvor Law Inrrixosments.—Yesterday the Provost Guard arrested Jobn C. Pfeiffer, for selling Hquor to soldiers He was fined $25 by Jnstice Donn. Frederick Stapp, bar-keeper for Pfeiffer, was arrested at t! ame time, but being only the employee, was dismissed. Wm. H Andrews, arrested for a similar offense, was fined 825 AccIDENT.—Martin Cunningham, a youthful teamster, whi iriving four mules attached to a Government wagon, yesterday, broke bis lead rein, when the team became unmanageable and be bas thrown from the mule he was driviny:. ‘The wheels passed over his hand (or a mule tread on it) mangling itin a dreadful manner.
