A message was received from the Aldermen trareitting ‘he ordirance to pay bounties a yclonteers, when Mr. Collinge asked that the bowrd Proceed ta its consideration at once. Mr. Marbury hoped the regular orter of busine would be gone through with He was not prepared to run the town in debt, &6d would cppose the bill, notwithstanding he Might be considered unpatriotic. Mr. Collins moved to suspend the rules; care red—yeas 7, nays 3 Mr. Marbury said the que:tion was a very serious cone. He said that Warhincton was ten times as wealthy and had ten times the number of propte; yet they had notappropriated much More than was in this bill. He had seen it stetd thata majority. of those to whom beunty hed bern paid in Washington had deserted atter receiving the bounty, and the comm ttee bad given the job up. According to the state. ment that 300 men would have to b> raised, “5,000 would be required, excluding the pre- miums for recruits. He was opposed to taxiag this sapere on the people. While Marvland was offering larger bounties, and some States 86 bigh as $1,000, it was a question whether msény recruits could be procured in the town. He did not know whether they possessed the power, and he contended that he tax payers should be consulted first. Snppose this debt wes incurred when the town had $3'(00 for a market, the larger poruon of which ultimately would be paid hack, what won!d be the efoct on the stock? Out of the 300 required, he dd no‘ believe that above 100 ‘would be sc. eptet, on accountof disability, &c. H+ was willing to do ail he could, privately, and would sub. scribe liberally, and he asked, way not do as uy had don in Washineton—raise them ney by subscription! To pass the bill woud de- reciate the stock cousiderably, and he had oyed that the debt of the Corporati, which bad been materially reduced, would be re. duced still more; but if this bi pussed thoy would have to prtiuon Congress t) allow them to tax the people to Si, or possin'y ty 81.25 im the $100. Scme sav thit if ths people were texed secesh would have to pay it; a:d if this was so he would go heartily for the dill. He would make secesh pay it all; but this discrim- inalon could not be made. Mr Collirs urged ‘hat their duty was to try Aug obtain the men in this draf; thoy will not be +o Jenient as before. There had been bat liltle done yet, end every one should come ap towork. As for the adverse views of the peo- ple, ‘hat was an incentive for him to favor the bil’, tor there were plenty of men able to pay who lad not given avything, and this was the only wSy to make them pay, aod the loyal mea “ou'd aiso bear their ehare. He could not see ‘hat this movement was in contravention of tie charter, or there was any iaccnsistency in the bill, Mr. Marbury reptied that the Inconsistency was the propo-ition to pay $150 bounty to three hovdred recruits, which would amount to $4 C00, wi ile the bi!lappronri ited only $20, 100. They could not mske the property holders pay More thin the charter provides, asd this bil Was for us to borrow money and entail a debt on ‘heirchildren. The stock of the Cor,ora- fio Wee now at! 3, because tuey had dimin- isLed ihe debt. It is very eacy to pass the bill, ®@s was the cxse in the Metropolitan Rulroid project, but not easy to pay the feb: contrected. This ratirovd debt had not been paid ot yet. Mr. Collins asked why the stock was up, if was not because of the protection of the Government, and asked what bad the town done vs atown? Mr. Marbury said as a community it had Cone ®& vast deni. Mr. kpgtish had mace up his mind that this Lill was just and proper, and wouid vote for ir, He moved that the wards “without di lincticn of coior,” be meerted. r.

Under this bill these would have to pay. The bill does not propose to take it out o1 secessionists property alto- fether, eithongh the Jarger portion of the rop= erty-bolders were secesh sy mpa'hizers. Is not ihe town able to bear the burden! The pres- fut assessment is S4.000,000, and ia two years more it will be $6 (60,000, and is not this prose prrity owing‘o the protection of the Governe mrnt! In other places they were aiding the country, and Georgetown should come ap. It had been asserted that Georgetown was aden o¢ secrssiop, but this he denied. While hi kiew ‘bat mcst of the property-holders were s-cesh, he was satisfied a majority of the peo- ple were loyal. He was satisfied that the loyal wonld not object to this bill, andeas for the dis- Joyal he wonld not ask them to endorse their acticn, but make them pay. Mr. Marbury asked how they conld be made to pay over seventy-five cents? Mr. Tenney replied that the increase would be over $2,010,000. There was vo clause pro. bibiting the corporation from borrowing money on this stock, and he thoucht they couid easi! get an incresse of tax, but he did uot think ie would be regnired. The stock if issued would be disposed ofeasily, for every day parties are asking tor at. Mv. Clements said if there ever was a measure which citizens ought to be willing to be taxed for it was this. Be was willing that his taxes should be doubled for this object. As tor the disk yal be cared little whetber they liked it or not; he wished that the umonnt to each recruit was €5\0. He thought the amount proposed, ($15¢,) was little enough for any man to take his musket and go forward two fight tor the town. Ifit was necessary that we shonid pe- tition for power to increase the taxes, and Con gress refused, they should, be turned out, He thought that they (the mémbers) who receive =216 per year, should not hesitate to pass this bill, logive such men as are williog to enlist #lsveach If any man or witow who would refuse to pay the tax on their preperty for chi: purpose onght not to have any. He was will. ing tor this cause to incur tae displeasure of the citizens of Georgetown. Dr. Craigen followed, statiog that he wished Georgetown conid raise five hundred young m+n, ard pay them the bonnty, and he would Tegsre that moment w hen he paid his taxes for this object the sweetest moment of his life, and when le voted tor the bill he wonkda’t feel that® be was doing wore than haif hisdaty The smount be thought couid be ea-ily raistu.
