The B then took a recess, and reassem- bled at half-past ten o'clock and adjourned. Beard of Common Council. A special meeting of the Common Council was held last evening, at the call of the Mayor, at which the following message wag read : To.the Board of Common Council : GENTLEMEN: I have deemed it my duty to call a special meeting of the Councils this evening for the purpose of acting on the bill that the Boant Of Aidermen last evening, providing for the Ds ponement of the advertisement fer the sale of prop: erty for taxes, and to authorize the Cor; to anticipate a certain portion of the revenues for the present fiscal year. ‘The alleged inability of a very large number of our small property-holders to pay their taxes before t usual time of advertising. renders it, in my J ment, eminently proper for the Corporation to de with them leniently. tosave them as far as possil the great expense of having their property adver tired, and to give them every opportunity in their power to raise the means to pay their taxes. And in order to satisly the demands of labor- e' el other employes of the Cor. to pay pressing demands it Js our imperative duty to anticipate those taxes, and to provide the means for their satisfaction without a ae ae delay.

He was tired of this : would lead to borrowing money y bank. He had seen this sympathy lead men to taking 50 cents from $1.50 paid to a laboring man for campaign purposes. Mr. Hall.—What officer did that? Mr. Hiatton.—The gentleman who has char of the political machinery in the several w Mr. Ball—I don’t know who it the gentleman himself. Mr. Hatton continued, saying that the o referred to was well known; and he cl the law gives the Collector of Taxes cntire trol of the matter, except in the cases of property of insane persons, minors, e. Mr. Hall rose to a point of order ard asked how long the gentleman intended to % Mr. Hatton said bis object was to Dill, aud could he do so he would spe next June for that purpose. Mr. Hall said that he represented roperty holders as well as the laboring men, and argued that the bill would be a relief to all. He desired members to notice that the opposition came from thore who belonged to the party in opposi- tien to the Republican party. Mr. Hatton asked the name of that party. Mr. Hall replied that it was the party opposed to the municipal authorities. If he should give it a name he would call it the death tothe Repub- lican party, or the ally of the Democratic party. He wished to save the poor man the expenses of advertising, and noted a case where the taxes amounted to $3 and the Dill, ineluding fees and advertising, amounted to $13.50. Mr. Boyd [denied that the laboring men had generally paid their tax Mr. Holmes raised a 7 it of order, that there was a motion to reconsider the bill pending in the Aldermen, and it was a dereliction of duty on the part ot the Secretary to send the bill own. The Chair decided that the bill was properly endorsed, and it was not for this Board to o tion the correctness of that endorse: wrong has been done, the Aldermen shor for the retnrn of the bill. Mr. Detrick thought that the Corporation had not shown much financial ability; salaries had been raised, new offices had been created, eon- tractors had been paid more than the contract price. All these things had rendered an antic pation of the revenue necessary to setile th claims against the Corporation; but he would e laborers first, and he offered an amend- until hay any other purpose until all the la ng ust this Corporation 2:4l) have been claims agai — Mr. Williams said that the majority of the debts which this money was intended to piv was for debis contracted before the Repu? party came into power, and noi asi that he knew of as now pending debt made by the debts were create ch Lad be passed bills enough to absorb th: enue ft the next two years, and this indiscriminate pa ing of bills was tor buncombe, and to curry favor with the laboring men. It'was no fault of the Mayor that the city had arrived at this em- barrassing situation, and it was now the duty of the Councils, who had made the debts, to pro- vide a way for getting out of it. He would take his -pare of the blame from the shoulders of the Mayor, and would like to see others have the manliness to acknowlege their share. Mr. Brown said he saw no bugbear in thi bill, but on the contrary saw that it would great- ly henetit the whole community, and he would cheerfully support the bill. Mr. ticimes offered an amendment to the amendment, that after the laboring men have been paid, the other money shall be paid to claimants according to date, and that none of this money shall be paid for new improvements until all of the outstanding indebtedness of the Corporation is paid; which was not agreed to— yeas 3, (Messrs.
