It was she intention of the committee to call firs: upon those who caled the meeting and obtsin their subscrip- tions, and then to call upon the o s Tle committee desired to raise $70,000, and hoped to do ro, but if they could not they de- sied to have the corporation funds to fall back ayon. he bill passed, Mr. Lioyd aleo reported favorably apon the bil increasing the compensation of the Mayor of Washington, which was passed.

We bad now already expended enough in this scheme of Mr. Thomas’ and we had not beea benefitted. He (Lloyd) was opposed to this further appropriation, becanse i wouid be mrrely throwing money away. Mr. Thomas bad agreed to clean out the canal for a certain amount of money, and had not done so. Mr. T plan was not feasible, and he did not see that apy benefit had ae rned from h experiment. Mesers. Plant and Sargent asfended Mr. Thomas, and argued that be had dune ail ne had promised, and had clevred oat a good deal of the accnmu'ated filtiv.

Pepper said he had something tosay wpon the bill, and about the remarks made lust week. He wanted to see jf he could not put himselt right upon the record. He found in the £vening Star of Tuesday last an extended report of re- marks eaid to have been delivered in tbe board last Monday night. He saw there a lengthy speech by the gentieman from the Third Ward, and this speech could not have oome from the with the above Teporter’s notes, for he was proverbially cor- rect im his report of the proceedings ‘Fhe re- marke were evidently furnished by Alder- wan or some of his friends. He (Mr. P.) had not only got the odd bits of his apeech, but even his own language had been appropriated in the published speech. The Alderman had said he would never be astonished at anything that tell from the venerable Alderman of the Fourth Ward. 1t was noteso in the published speech. He (Mr, B.} had accused the « venerable Alder- man of the Fourth Ward” with being erratic, and when he (Mr. P.).came to reply to the gen- tlernan he bad forgotten exactly the word used, and said he was not Quixotic. Thus it ap- peared in the published 5) has though Alderman from the Third Ward had used that language. Now, he (Mr. P.) did not want to be robbed of the few words he did say. This ‘was pot fair. eeauehter-] Mr. P. then con- tinued, and @ that at last meeting he called | the reporier’s attention to the question, and desired them again to note it, that he asked Mr. Brown whether he (P.) had abused the Metro- politan Police. Mr. Brown said « No; but you did the board.” TI replied, “1 deny it, sir, I never attached the police or the board, but the member of the board who worked the thing through Oopgress against the wishes of the people.” Mr. Pepper continued by referring to scenes that had occurred here during certain election times, when Baltimore Plug-Uglies and Dead Rabbits were brought on to eontrol the elections; and Mr. Pepper concluded by saying that he was not, as charged, ignorant of what he was talking of at last meating. Mr. Brown disclaimed any intention of sBy- ing anything to offend the Alderman from the Fourth Ward. He had called him his triend, and when he said that he meant it. He (Mr. | B.) would go as far as any one to serye Mr. Pepper, and ke begged the latter to dismiss guy idea that he (B.) intended to retiect upon im. Mr. Brown then proceeded to argue upor the emencment, and explained the law as he understood it. 1t was the intention of the act of Congress to let the corporation constables and magistrates act in elyil cases, and the Me- tropolitan Police were not to interfere with the corporation police. It was the daty of the Board ef Police vw appoint the magistrates, but they had always neglected to doso. He had nothing againet the corporation police, but he did think that they were in about the po- sidon 018 fifth wheel ton wagon. The returns ehow that last year they had been paid $1,500 to collect a little over @1,400, It was their duty to collect gu ) Teeded fines simply; and in this bill the Mi olitan Police Board simply asked that the fund ehould be set ‘aside for special. purpose,.as other, funds were. ‘The.re. warns shove that $22,000 Ly collected last Potice, although the year by the Metropolitan Register's books ehow: but $16,000; but that discrepancy will soon be accounted for He believed! 815,000 to $50 dob sould be Taiged yeur to build eve station-houses, “s. vend B fen the coi Pohée, and) Gila Ke knew them tobe efficient int many loeajfties; and that many of them had done the corperation service in compelling to tal ucense.. He instanced the: case-of re ‘Ward constabie. Jie would sey Mr. Lioyd alse detended paleragee Seat from the oft-repeated charges cf being given over to vies and criminality. Mr. Utermeble argued against the corpora- tion constables. They were not efficient, and Were scarcely ever to be had when wanted. Many ot thém did not report to the inagis:rates more than onée a month, and that was upon paysday. After some further debate, the amendment offered by Mr. U'termehle was adopted aa.a substitute for the whole bill. Mr. Utermehie extended an invitation tortie board to witness 4 trial of a steam fire eugine at the corner of Pennsylvania avenue and Sth street, on Wedneaday afvernoon at 3 o'clock. Mr. Pepper, from the improvements commit- tee, reported the bills to widen the gutter on ihe cast and west sides of 9th street west, fram Miveachusetls avenze to M street north, avd also the gutters in the same street, from BI. to N; which were laid over.

Larner said that the bill originaliy parsed appropriated but $2,U0, and asked why the Surveyors esuinate was not first obtained, aud moved that it be referred, Mr. N. D. Larner said that it was no fault of the Council ner of the committee on improve- Mevis, butof the Mayor, whose place it is to ascertain the cost of proposed improvements. It the bill was referred to the committee he’ would report it immediately. Mr. M. Larner’s motion to refer prevailed, but the bill was immediately reported and pasred. Mr. M. Larner introduced a juint resolution authorizing the Water Registrar to purchase 1,300 feet of six-inch pipe and 650 feet four-inch pipe. Mr. N. D. Larner asked that the bill lie over, because in bis opinion four-inch pipe was not sufficient to supply steam engines, which it was proposed to purchase for the use of the city. At the trial at the corner of Sth street and the avenue it was thought that the plug did not supply water enough for the engine play- ing—the Hibernia, and it was p) to bave another trial with the engine on Wednesday afternoon, to which the Councils were invited. Mr. Shepherd urged the passage of the bill, he ground of the prospective advance in the price of pipe. and said that the four-inch pipe was needed for connections. Alter some“further debate by Messrs. Shep- herd, Larner; Wilson and others, the bill was passed. The following were reported and passed: By Mr. Shepherd, (claims committee)—Bill for reliet of E. Romaine; by Mr. Ferguson, (same committee)— Bill for reliet of D Culliman. The following were reported on adversely and the committees discharged: By Mr. Fergu- gon, (claims committee)—Petition of Emeline est; by Mr. Uanfield, (police)—Bill for the Tcmoval of cinders and coal ashes. Mr. Shepherd introduced the following: ‘Whereas the present digest of Corporation laws fas become, by reason of recent enact ments and amendmente, faulty and imperfect, rendering it difficult to determine what ordi- Dances are still im force; and whereas the interests. of this city requiring that the laws should be properly revieed and codified: Therefore, He it resolved, That the Mayor and one mem- ber of each Board be, and are by, Appointed a@ committee, who shall prepare and eubmit to theee Boards « thorough reyeion and codifica- tion of such laws, and said committtee are hereby empowered to procure such legal assist- ance as may be requisite, and an amount suffi- cient to defray such expense be and the same is ap) ropeiaied, payable out of the general fund. r. M. Larner moved the resolution be post- poned for one week. Mr. Shepherd said that the committee haa been appointed several months since, and he could see no good reason why the bill should be postponed. It could not be denied but that the sews eeded @ revision, and the Board of ‘olice had no money with which to t se work. ea Las ir. M. Larner remarked that it appeared that the police wanted all the powers or the Corporation, including the fines, and he made the motion that the subject might be examined. Mr. Shepherd urged that this object was not & matter between the Corporation aud the Police Commissioners, but was a necessity. ‘The question was whether the Police Vommis- sicners should pay the expense; but as they had not the money, he was in favor of the Gor- poration paying for it. The motion to postpone was lost, and the res- olution was adopted.
