Mr. Thomas offered as a substi- & resolution authorizing the Mayor to rent wharf to the bighest bidder for cash, for t the the term of one year. Mr. Cropley opposed the Tesolution. He thought the wharf ought to be gtanted to the Ne ork Steamship Company, as that company needed it, and doubted the right of the Corporation to" sell or rent the wharves, because, in his opinion, they should be considered highways. If heowned property adjoining them he would contest the right of the Corporation to sel] or rent them. Mr. Thomas said that he believed the wharf should not be disposed of in any other way than by public auction. There were several applicants for it, and he beld that the Corporation should give all equal opportunities to obtain ut. Mr. Cropley replied, when the question was called, result :—Ayes, Messrs. Noes, Messrs. rt ag id Heiston. The Re- corder then voted a: the resolution passed. The Council subsequently returned the resolution, having rejected the substitute and adhered to the original resolation. On mn of Mr. Thomas, the Board receded from tion in passing the substitute, and the | original resolution was passed.

The report shows that the cost of main- taming the inmates of 1 institution is as low as itcam be made. The average cost is 30 cents per diem for each individual. The sabstita- tion of the army ration would considerably increase rather than rednce the expense. The committee asked to be and was discharged from the further consideration of the subject. Mr. Goddard, from the streets committee. reported &@ resolution of inquiry relative to the amount of earth deposited on Frederick street by the late Street Commissioner, John H. Newmar.
