The t:xation for the benefit of public schools is the same as last year, viz: 10 cents out of the gen- eraitsx of 70 cents. This makes the general and special taxes 9 cents on the 100; being an increase of 5 cents on the taxation of last year, ‘Lhe ordinance passed. Mr. Beall introduced a resolution allowing the Tax Collector 4 per cent. for collecting the general and special tax for 1564. Tnts is an increase of one per cent. over the amon: allowed last year. It was passed. Mr. Beall also introduced an ordinance to Psy honnties for volomteere (The ardinannn authorizes the payment of a bounty of $10) to each man who shall volunteeer between now and the ist ot March, as soon as he shail be mustered into the U.

It is made the duty of the Clerk, on Jaly Ist, i565, and annualiv thereafter, to redeem $1,000 of said stock, uatil the whole amount is redeemed, which, with the interest, shall be paid out of the general fund. Each year, and one month before the day of redeeming, all the numbers shall be placed together, and ten of them shall be drawn, and those holding the drawn numoers shall be notified that the interest will ce: ay the expiration of the current quarter, at whi-h time the principal will be paid.

Je thought Georgetown should do something to show its appreciation of the efforts of Gov- ernment to suppress the rebellion. This he thought the best way to make all contribute, for all wonld be taxed. This conrse, too, wouid touch those in our midst who sympathized with. the rebellion, aud who would not etherwis: contribute to the cause of the Government. The opposition to the immediate passage of the ordinance was on account of the largo Amount appropriated: and the opinion w: expressed that it would not secure many | Ubteers, as people would risk their chances in the draft.

The edifice retained the emblems ot woe which it wore at the obsequies of the deceased. Thecatatalque differed very materi- ally from that used at the funeral, the canop being entirely removed. The base wasa plintk on a@ level with the pews, the upper portion being a representative tomb in the style of a pyramid. The centre of the lid was capped by a Pompe ian vase, surmounted by arichly dac- orated cross in sable and burnished steel, draped with the memorial weeping cloth, which was trimmed with silver fringe. From the vase fronting the high altar was suspended the late Archbishop’s stole, and on one edge of the tomb rested his golden mitre. The pin and mausolenm were ornament. ed with silver lace—the latter bearing fringed festoons of the same material. The whole was brilliantly illuminated with tapers.

Bishops Laughlin, of Brooklyn: Timon, of Buffalo; Bailey, of Newark; minigue, of Pittsburg ; Farrell, of Hamilton, Canada: Lynch of Toronto; Vicar-General Starrs and others. The immense editice was crowded Jong before the hour of service, and although no persons were admitted without tickets, both Muiberry and Moti streets were crowded with people who sought, though in vain, to gain an entrance to the Cathedral. ‘ The services commenced with the office for the dead which was effectively chanted by the clergy.

Fathers Ma- guire and McSweency acted as Deacons and Father McNierney officiated as Master of Cere- monies. The Right Rev. aged Mc! lin preach- ed the sermon from Paul’s Epistle to the.
