Mr. Wright stated that under the Aldermen's bill men detailed in the employ of the Govern- ment atthe Arsenal and Navy Yard could claim benefits. Mr. Moore moved the report be indefinitely postponed, and the whole subject be referred to a special committee, with instructions to re- port 4 bill which shall confer the bounty pro- vided in the act ofthe 29th of September last, on such young men drafted, the sons er wards of bona. residents of Washington, as have attained the age of maturity, or the milita age, since the 3ist day of December, 1863, an also to confer the said bounty upon such of our bona fide residents drafted as trom their inabil- ity to procure substitutes shall be required to enter thearmy and personally perform their term of service. Mr. Peugh moved to lay Mr. Moore’s mo- tion on the table; but the chair deciding that if the motion prevailed the bill would be carried with it, Mr. Peugh withdrew his motion. Mr. Moore’s motion was adopted,and the chair appointed Messrs. Moore, Peugh aad Larner the committee. The vote by which Mr. Moore’s motion was adopted was subsequently reconsidered on motion of Mr. Wright, and the motion of Mr. Moore was lost—yeas 5, nays 9. Mr. Larner moved to non-concur in the re- port of the committee; carried. So the bill goes back to the Aldermen. The Board proceeded to the Aldermen’s Chamber to attend the joint meeting for the election of election for the Sixth Ward, and when they returned— Mr. Ferguson, from the committee of confer- ence on the billiard-table bill and the bill in relation to licenses, made a report recommend- ing concurrence in the Aldermen’s amend- ments striking out the section increasing the licenses toallexceptnative-born or naturalized citizens; which was adopted.

From the Army of the James—A Recon- noissance Nerth ef the James. {Special Correspondence of the N. Y. Tribune.} EZADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE JAMES, NEAR RicHMonp, Oct. 13.—A reconnoissance in force was made on our extreme right to-day hes First and Third Divisions of the Tenth iy Corps and a portion of Kautz’s Cavalry, for the purpose of developing the position of the enemy in that quarter, and to arrest the build- ing of a new line ot works which they were believed to be engaged im constructing on the parvyiowe road, about three miles from Rich- mond. Our forces advanced in fine style early this morning, coming upon the rebel forces when within five miles of Richmond, and drove them in good style for a couple of miles. Owing to the rapidity ot our advance, the rebels fell back in sach haste and confusion as to be una- ble to occupy the line of entrenchments ex- tending across the Darbytown road, where the fight occurred on the 7th instant, and which have since been occupied by the troops of neither side. They le astand, however, at their new line, about three miles from thecity, and our forces finding them of considerable strength, after feeling of their position, were erdered by Gen. Terry to fall back to the line of works about four miles from Richmond, from whence Kantz’s dismounted cavairy were driven on the 7th inst. The rebels, sup- posing our forces were retreating, made a charge upon them as they fell back tp this line, eraecuse of Ohio avenue and 13 and received a murderous fire from our artil- lery, now for the first time brought into ac- tion, and trom which they retired with heavy loss and great confusion, leaving the line of entrenchments in our possession, Our losses in the desultory engagements, ex- tending several hours, amount in killed and wounded tosome two hundred, no prison ers being taken on either side, and occurred chiefly in an unsuccessful effort made by Gen. Ames iran ely tie tne sap nchments, near the 1 Posed to be less strong tan elsewhere.” This pee being found 0! considerable strength, eneral Terry ordered thatit should not be ressed, and our retired to the position troops Richmond, which is now held, ao rraniles from and which is not likely to be again relinquished. 7H oF JUDGE BEEWER.—Hon.
