On motion of Mr. Plant, the bill to provide tor the payment of the sixth annual installment of the principal and half yearly interest due on certain guaranteed bonds was taken up as the epecial order, and read a third time and passed. [The guarantied bonds referred to are those issued by the Corporation to aid in build- ing the Washington and Alexandria Railroad. Rep. Fis following were introduced and passed: By Mr. Turton—bill to improve Eleventh street east, from Pennsylvania avenue to Seuth Caroliva avenue. By Mr Brown—bill for the relief of G. W. G. Eslin; and bill to lay a flag footwalk acroes G streetnorth and Tenth street weet, Mr. Brown introduced a resolution, which ‘was adopted, requesting the committee on drairage to report each proper bill or bills as may be necessary for carrying into effect the Provisions of the act of Congress of March 3d, 1t63, entitled an act to provide for the preser- vation ot the works constructed by the United States for bringing Potomac water into the cities of Washington and Georgetown. Ad- journed. Common Council.—A communication was re- ceived from the Mayor, enclosing a letter from Wm. Thomas, superintendent ot the improve- ment of the canal. Mr. Thomas says that the dem near Third street was partly carried away by the freshet last week, and states that it wus previously much damaged by being used as a Wagon road. He recommends that, instead of repairing the dam, tide-gates be constructed at Four-and-a-halfstreet, toopen eastward, by which means a current both east and west can be produced. Referred to the joint committee on canal, Aleo, a veto messsge on the bill to regnlate and license livery stables. The Mayor says he returns the bill without his approyal, because the third section of the bill operates not only to restrain the erection of new structures to be used for the purposes of a livery stable, by re- quiring “the consent of @ majority of the prop- erty Owners and persons resident on both sides of the street in the square in which it 1s pro- posed to erect such stavle; but likewise re- siricts the granting of such license for the pur- pore of a livery stable to places or where build- ings used for such purposes already exist. Thie, I apprehend, was not your intention, for while it might be proper and jndicious to eguple such consent on the part of the neigh- horhood with the erection of new structures to be used for the purposes of a livery stable, it might be improper to place a restriction of that preventitive character on places and buildings already in existence, and erected at great cost, ata time when no such restriction of the pur- Foes tor which they were built and intended. I wonld, therefore, suggest that, the consent cf @ majority of the property owners and per- sons residing in the same side of the square, and on the side of the square fronting opposite, contemplated in this section of the bill, be con- fined and limited to buildings hereafter to be erected, and to be used for the purposes of a livery stable. That part of the Sth section which applies to washing vehicles on the side walks and in the streets and avenues, appears to me to be liks- wise too restrictive, and I would suggest some modification of it, Phe object of the restrictive clause in this sec- jon is,as I upderstand, to abate a nuisance occasioned by obstructing the side walks and streets. This might be attained by permitting the wasbing only to be done beyond the curb line of the pavement, and then within certain hours, say between the hours of fourand ten o’clock, &.m., which would effectually preyent the occupancy of the sidewalks for such pur- pose at all times, and leave the streets and avenues iree from obstructions during the business portion of the day and night.” Also a communication announcing his ap- proval of an act to supply a deficiency in the appropriation for the construction of a sewer on C street, between 4 and 6th streets, The following were presented and referred: By Mr. N. D. Larner—Memorial of Persever- ance Fire Company, with bill; by Mr. M.

L. Frederick, asking that certain grading on A street be finished; by Mr. Ellis—Petition for payement on north front of equare 582. The following were introduced and passed: By Mr. N. D. Larner—Bills to take up and re- lay gutteron east side of Ninth street, between Gand H, and to construct a branch sewer in the Second Ward; by Mr. Follansbee—Fcr the relief of J. Thomas Thornton, and to purchase scales for the Center Market; by Mr. Ellis— Joint resotution instructing the committee be- fore Congrees to urge upon Congress to light 4% nireet, from Maryland avenue’ te the Ar- senal. Mr. Canfield introduced bill increasing the pay of the corporation laborers to $1.75, ac- companied by a petition, when Mr. M. Larner moved to refer it to the ways and means committee, which was lost. Mr. M. Larner said that in no city in the Union were such wages paid the laborers, and. he asked what were the wages paid by Gov- ernment. Mr. Canfield said that at the Navy Yard scme were receiving $1.75 others 61.50. Mr. Ellis explained that those who received $1.75 were not mere laborers, but had been em- Bigyed on 8 particuiar kind of work for years. - M. Larner stated that he had seen col- ored men working in the trenches, and he would bear testimony that they did twice as much work as white laborers, and they did not receive more than: $1.5. When he was a young man the wages of laborers was seventy- five cents per day, and he himself asa jour- neyman printer, had worked hard for ter hours per day, ai hand. press, at 81.50 per day, and he had supported a family on that amount. Mr. Canfield said that there was a thin Board, and moved to lay the billover, which motion was lost. Mr, M. Larner caw no reason why the cor- ration should p27. laborere more than the ‘vy Court did their laborers. The corpora- tion paid half ot the expense in making roads, and if Jaborer’s pay was increased in the city they should be increased in the county. Why should their pay be increased, when Grovern- ment officers, clerks, &c., had been receiving the same pay for years? Mr. McUathran advocated the bill, and in- stanced the increase of house rent as one of the reasons why their pay should be increased. He knew ot colored laborers who were paying $10 per month for one room. The gentleman had stated that he had worked for seventy-five cents per day— Mr_M. Larner.—No, sir. I said I had worked for $1.50, but then laborers received put 75 cents. Mr. McCathran said that in those days houses of five or six rooms rented for $f or $8 per month, but now houses of two rooms rented for $10. Mr. Canfield said that in his neighborhood one house of two rooms rented at $12.50 and another at $20. Mr. Larner replied that such was not the case in his section of the city, and it seemed curious that such houses as had been describ>d rented for a larger sum in the Fitth and Sixth Wards than they did in the Fourth Ward, which was the most populous. Mr. Ruff spoke of the rates of wages id at the Navy Yard, and argued in favor of the bill. Mr. Shedd said that he had heard that the Corporation laborers did not do half as much work as the contract laborers, and the Gorpora- tion had an interest which they should look t>. If their laborers’ w: was raised, would it not operate against their contractors 7 Mr. M. Larner called attention to the fact that the employees of the street railroad company ‘orklen! about seventeen hours per day, and £ome of them received but $1.50 per day. Now, when the are growing short and the work- ing season about to close, you are going to increase the wages. When private companies get seventéen hours’ work for $1.50, and we talk PES $1.75 for eight hours’ work. Mr. cCatbran asked what company was bleedipg men at that rate? Mr. M. Larner replied the W: and Georgetown Railroad company, and paid their employees. higher w; than was paid in the Northern cities. : ee re a could not ve ‘on what they” ing—it requiring & two-thirds yote.

Mr. Canfield said he had assented to the bili ‘in ccmmittee, but wonl@ now oppose it because corane een Sea Bosra on the bill to increase yl . Why nottreat all alike? ‘Mr. BM. Larner explained that some of the committee Were opposed to the bill because they ioubted the loyalty of Mr. Coyle, but he had takcn the oath required of him by law, and that was enough until it was proved otherwise, He spoke in high terms of Mr. Coyle’s cnarac- ter as an cfficer ; he treated all alike, and if the rich man failed to pay his water rent he would cut him off as soon =s he would the poor man, Mr. McUathran said that consisiency is a jewel, but in this Board they refuse to yote an increase of 25 cents per day to the working man, who labored from 7 to 6, and they were now ready to pay from £300 to #5 per annum increase to an officer engaged from 4 to 3 he question recurring on the third reading of the bill, it was ordered by yeas 9, pays i, and the bill was passed. The first special order, Mr. N. D. Larner’s bill relating ‘o the distribution of water, was called up, and after some discussion was post- poned to the next meeting.

Ellisand N. D; Larrer were appointed a committee of confer- ence, The Mayor’s veto message on the bill to reg- ulate livery stables was taken np, and Mr. N. D. Larner satd that he did not con- sider that the Mayor had advanced gny velit reasons for vetoing the bill. He instanc: d that people had to move off of Eighth street on ac- count of the stables, and ladies only went up Eighth street when obliged to. He thought that the people should be benefitted and not the livery stable keepers. The Chair stated that the bill was not before the Board, and therefore could not be consid- ered at that time.
