Rives. leo & communicaton returning the bill re- lative to the disposal of stands at auction in the several markets without his signature. The Mayor says the law stands the same as pro- vided in this bill: All stands extept butcher stands being annually put up for sale. The bill, however, makes a radical charge as re- gards butchers stands. As it now stands, butchers stalls are put up at auction only when new ones are built, and old ones vacated by withdrawal from business or death of the party occupying them, when they are sold for aterm of five years. Many of the stalls are now held, the tenancies terminating at differ- ent periods, and it would be unjust to enforce this law. In conclusion, the Mayor saysa bill covering the subject, prepared by the Corpo- ration Attorney, is now before the Board of Aldermen. The question being shall the bill pass, it was deciaed in the negative. Also, message enclosing a petition of hay and feed dealers, as certain changes in the law relating to the sale of those articles; referred. Also, 2 communicatioh of the Sarveyor rela- fire to the grade of 9th street east; laid on the table. Also, 8 communication of the Water Regis- trar announcing that the time for opening bids for water pipe will expire on Monday next, and requesting the boards to meet in joint meeting in time to open the bids; and a resolu- tion for that meenng was introduced and passed. The following were introduced and referred . By Mr. H. OC. Wilson—Petition of Henry New- man. By Mr. Stephens—Petition of Nelson White. By Mr. Ferguson—Bill to modify and amend the act to increase the laborers on Uor- poration work. By Mr. Peake—Bill to par- chase hose for the Anacostia Fire Company. The following were introduced and passed : By Mr. Shedd—Joint resolution requesting the Mayor to have certain portions of the law re- lating to nuisances, as regards the duties of citizens, to be published. By Mr. Barr—Bill for a gravel footwalk on the south front of the westhalf ofsquare336. By Mr.N. D. Larner— To pay the assessors compensation for extra services. By Mr. Shepherd—For the relief of H. Shulthies, and joint resolution requesting the Mayor to urge upon Congress the passage of the bill to remove the present unsightly jail, and for the erection of @ new one in its stead. By Mr. McCathran—To grade and gravel 5th street east. Mr.N. D. Larner introduced a resolution requesting the Mayor to urge upon the Senate of the United States the importance of s edy action upon the bill now pending in the Senate gr-nting additional powers to the city, said bill bavirg once. been passed by the Senate and re. turned by the House of Representatives with an amendment. Mr. Larner remarked that the Chronicle had charged the Corporation with working for speculators The fact that the Chronicle office ‘was on 9th street had a good deal to do.with the matter. He said the committee had pre- yeree a bill for sewerage, but they had been lelayed @ month in the matter by a certain clique, the most of whom had no interest here except to make their money and fly off with it elsewhere. He knew not the person who wrote the articles in the Chronicle, but it would be impoesible to find a man more ignorant of the affairs and duties of the Corporation than the writer of those articles. He wanted the people to know that they had teen blackguarded by this paper; and in conclusion he defended the Mayor, who had dore his duty most faithfully, notwithstanding the charges. They (the Coun- cils) had been accused of neglecting the repair of the avenue, which the Corporation had nothing to do with, and spending the money of the people in the improvement of ont-of-the- way streets. This paper was ignorant enough to state, too, that one of the streets which had been referred to ran through miles of slashes, when there was not any waste ground through- out its entire length. He did not expect the Chomicle to publish his remarks, but there were other and better papers here who had a better right to speak for the city, and who were better informed. He wished the people to know that there was a paper here called the Morning Chronicle which was continually reviling us Mr. Shedd said he had come in for some of the blame because he introduced a bill for the improvement of one of the streets not near the avenue or Chronicle office, and he contended that the people even out to the Boundary should have their streets improved. The course that paper had pursued was most reprepensi- ble, and the paper was becoming a nuisance. Mr. Shepherd alluded to the course of the Chronicle on Corporation affairs, and said that they ougnt not to blackguard the city for not performing impoesibilities. If Congress gave the city the power, all thestreets would be kept in repair. Pennsylvania avenue was under the exclusive control of the Govern. ment, and if the avenue was a specimen of the manner in which the Government woald at- tend to the streets he would say, God help us! if there was to be a big lobby scheme ran through Congress—a road or other valu- able franchise—it was run straight through; but if the Corporation asked for anything they Were snubbed. It seemed that instead of help- ing us tomake improvements, they take de- iiygbt in reviling us. r. M. Larner expressed his surprise in reading the petition published in the Ghroni- cle of Sunday morning, which purported to be signed by the property-holders on and near Pennsylvania avenue; but some of them did not own one foot of und—-the most of. them being persons who do business there, It had become & very common thing for si here to attempt to dictate to us oraan Dy Know noting, ine As for extending the 8 y was in favor of opening every street to_the boundary. ‘i ay Mr. OC. Wilson stated that he had from time to time read these articles abusing the Cor, ration and comparing the city unfavorably with other cities. But in those cities the taxes are higher than here, and the streets narrower; consequently.they could pave their streets. - The resolution was unanimously ted. Mr. O. Wilson introduced a bill to adopted. improve the harbor, by drivin, jes on the west bank of the channe. ee On viding for the improvement of that sireet from P.nncylvania avenue to the river, by oa- structing a sutter in the cenier. The committee were discharged from te turther conrideration of the bills to 1 tet stret east, from M to N streeteouth, and to ervde spd gravel Ist street east, from street to C street. Mr N. D.

Mr. Larner remar! the committee thought proper to increas propriation and insert an tmendmeat provide ing that the Mayor may from time to time rtions of this fand in having such streete as Ee may deem necessary watered. The bill, with the amendment, was passed. Mr. M. Larner, from the drainage committee, reported a resolution for prmting the Water Registrar's report; which was passed. Mr. Barr, from the cisims committee, re- perked adversely on the petition of Thomas Ww: Mr. M.

Mr. Wilson said that there was one instail- ment of interest and principal now due, aud the bondholders wished to know af the Oorpo- ration intended to repudiate the bonds. Mr. Larner replied that the Uorporaticn, under the decision of the court, were not re- quired to pay the bonds, and the company would eventually have to pay the bondholders.

The London Times attributes alight rally in the Confederate loan and a reastion om the Paris bourse, to the open defiance of France on the Mexican question by the House of Repre- sentatives at Washington. The Times thinks, however, that the action of the House will be ignored or retracted. The public were startled on the 16th, an- nouncement that Garibaldi’s visit was be abruptly terminated, and that he would leave London, en route tor Caprera, onthe 24d. The excitement was alleged to be too much for his health, and medical evidence was addueed m support, but reports are circulated that his de- parture was suggested by the Government, at the instigation of Napoleon. These reports were emphatically denied ry are Clarendon, in the House of Lords, and Lord Palmerston, in the House of Commons.
