After considerable de- bate, the Chair ruled the motion for immediate reconsideration in order. Mr. Elvans wanted the motion (under the 44th rule) to be reduced to writng, which was done. Pending a yote, Mr. Elvans moved to adjourn, and called the ayes and noes. The Board retused to adjourn. More lively filhbustering then ensued. The minority, seemingly without any ther purpose than to prolong the struggle ae much as possi- ble, (the majority being -trong in numbers and in their purpose to dispose of the question at once, for good and for all) made, successively, Motions to adjourn, to postpone one week, io Postpone indefinitely, &c., &c., all of which ‘were voted down.

In this respect the age of the bill would confer no new benefit overseers, | the cost of su on the laborer. It neither proposes toincrease his pay nor lessen the period of his tuil, as at pres- ent regulated. The last Council showed its ap- Precistion of the maxim that “The laborer is worthy of bis hire” by establishing the eigbt- hour system, and allowing under it liberal Fates of pay. The laws established those rate:, and the eight-hour system.is still in op»ration, aedas no new endorsement of that sysien would add to the moral influence im its fayor, which might be supposed to result from any act of this Cot your committee deem it impolitic and un wise to interfere with that jaw at the present time, for the reasons here stated, and for another reason involving the le- galty of a portion of the bill, which it is un- Mecessary (0 discuss in this report.

Elvans. - McCathran moved that the report of the Committee be printed, and the bill made the pecial order for next Monday evening. H- ‘Wanted gentlemen to be placed on the recerd. Mr. Elvans said he had just sizned the re- tin as legible a hand as possible, and said ‘was willing to take the entire responsibility | of signing such a paper, and at the same time he would state that that be was in favor of the jargest MMberty to, amd of all ‘the rights of the la- we men, Without gecusing any one of ‘Toguery Le could not recommend the pas- sage of a bill which would place the laboriug men of the city in the hands of their employer, as this would do. | Mr. McCathrau spoke of labor being arrayed | against capital, and signified bis readin ss to defend the bill. Mr. Moore moved a division of the question on Mr. McCathran's motion. The question be- ing tnken on the motion to print the report it ‘Was carried unanimously. Mr. Moore stated that ip referenee to the motion to postpone he did not see the use of it. The bill was an ab- surdity anda sham, brougatin here just on the eve of an election (it was so intended) to coerce members. He would take the respon- sibility and rely upon the intelligence of his constituents. He was opposed tovuticing any more deluded colored men here with the hoy of being pensioners on the Corporation. H> Teviewed the bill,stying it was in conflict with the charter.

Every one knew that there was no ‘man in & corporation office wito was more gbpoxjous to be memoers of the lower board than this same officer. They neyer would pass it. He was ready for the question now ‘Mr. McCathran said that he, too, was ready for the question. He was not afraid of any Fesponsibility, and it was a poor dodge for the chairman of the Committee of Improvemen say that the would not pass the lo Hoard. That gentleman was opposed to that Board politically, and he was only afeaid it would pass there. He expected no smiles, no encoursgement from the opponents of this bill, from the antocrats of the Corporation, or the advocates of capital aginst Inbor. He wanted to give the other side time to marshal their forces, as he promised them defeat when the issue came. He was detrmined to introduce eight hour bills until that measure became & success here and tnroughout the land. Gen met might amend the bill if it was imperfect. Mr. Moore said the gentleman stated when he introduced the bill be would oppose ail amendments, even to the crossing of 4 (and the dotting of an i. The bill was imperfect and impracticable. It did not apply to mechanics, but to unskilled labor only, aud it was against the interests of the Jaborer, because it would attract here still greater numbers of the colored laborers than are now collected here, and thus put down wages. Mr. Elvans spoke of the impolicy of raising any question of a conflict between capital and labor. There was no such conflict, and the Inechanics were perfectly able and miellizent enough to take care of their own interests, But the gentleman, ip his bill, does net include mechanics. It applies only to the grading and paving of streets. For this unskilled labog the ed ight Roars. The gentleman spoke 0 bill placed the workingmen in the power of an gutocrat, who wil! bave coutrol of all Corpor. tion work, and will employ bis power for political purposes, while, at present, all have a chance.

He hoped the resolution would meet with no opposition, but that it would be immediately put npon its passage.

Dr, Wm. fd eaid that having seen the call addressed to Republicans, he had come to this but not to create any discord, and ig there was a Republican Club in the ward of which some of the callers of this meet- ing are members, the terms of the officers of which will expire in afew days, he thought that there was some mistake, or that the object Was to ignore the original club. He offered a preamble that “it is known to those who called this meeting, that there isa regular ward club in existence, and one of their own making, and knowing, as they must know, that when a ward clob is organized, and officers regularly elected for six months, no one can make a regu- Jar eall and be recognized in convention, unless the retiring officers either make or join the call;” witha resolution that this meeting ad- FD, to meet with the regular Radical Repub- ican Club, on next Wednesday evening, April ¥2, 1868, provided the President ot the Seventh Ward Radical Republican Club gives his con- sent thereto, He remarked that he offered this Tesolution with proper decorum, and he hoped no gentlemen would utter words to msult him. The Chair.—«Is there a second to the substi- tute?” Mr. A. Watson.—«I second it.” Mr. A. Pannell (colored) moved to lay the substitute on the table; carried. The Chair raled that the laying the substitute on the table carried the original resolution with it. Mr. Tompkins (col aed aed the same resolution presented by Mr. Bacon as an original motion. Mr. Wat- sou moved an amendment that the nominations be made in open meeting; lost, (22 voting in the affirmative.) The resolution was adopted, aad the Chair appointed James Thompson, Arthur Pannell, Reuben Bacon, A. Bowen, and Mr. Dicker-on—all colored except Messrs. Bacon and Dickerson. The last named declined, and S. H. Middleton was appointed in his stead. The commitiee retired, and subsequently re- orted, through Rey. Anthony Bowen, the fol- jowing:—F. A. Boswell, (white,) President: A. Bowen, (colored,) Vice President; James Col. lins, (colored,) Secretary; A. Pannell, (colored, ) Treasurer. Mr. Watson (to Mr. Bowen.)—“Can I ask youa question?” Mr. Bowen.—«If it is in or- der.” Mr. W.—“How long has that (meanmg the list of officers) been fixed up!" Mr, B.— “That's for you to find out.” Mr. R. Thomp- son (colored) offered a resolution adopting the constitution of the old club, and for the ap- pointment ofa committee of three to revise the by-laws; which was adopt ¢ Ww. king, James Small, (white) and James Thom: son ppointed. Mr. A. Bi inguir if @ man did not pay bis dues, was he to be cor sidered no Republican. The Chair said that there was no compulsion to pay fees. Mr. Bowen.—“Then a man ean be a Republican whether he las money or not.” Mr. Bates suggested that a commiitee be appointed tocan- vass the ward, as was done last year. The work was then performed by less than thirty persons, for all did not work, and it might hata smaller committee would do this ye: It was important to know how many yoters were in the ward; how many of them would vote the Republican ticket: how many of them were sick or absent from the city, and to make arrangements for getting them to the polls to register. He moved that thirty be chosen asa committee for that purpose, Mr. A. Pannet moved that the number be thirty; which was agreed to. On motion of James Small, the club elected Mr. John R. P erce on the general committee, vice Jobn H. Crane, resigned, caused by his temoval from the ward, Mr. H. 0. Johnson, (colored,) rising.—“ I move that Dr. Boyd be solicited to address the meeting, {ooking to- wards the stove, near which Dr, B. had been seated.) “Oh! but he’s gone.” The meeting proceeded to select the canvassing committee, naming the following :—A.

During the nomination for members of the committee Battle Fitzhugh asked to be excused, but objection was raised, because he blew the horn last year, and they’ wanted him to do it again. A. Brooks raised the point that there were not enough bemg appointed, and Mr. Small expressed the hope that there would be no distinction made on account of color. Rev. Mr. Bowen called up Perry Carson, to show that he was the tallest man in the room, (ap- ching 7 feet,) and moved that he be placed he committee, which was done.

The Corporation wag empowered to regulate hack stands and abolish nuisances, but they had no power under the authority delegated to create and maintain a nuisance.
