EXPECTED \ETOES.—ube ordinance passed Jast evening by the Councils establishing and licensing the butcher's market, will, icom ap arences, fail, as Mayor Sweeny has signified fis positive intention of vetoing the measure, because, tn his opinion, it is unjust to the deal- ers inthe corporation market and is otherwise objectionable, and bis action cannot be over- thrown if there is a full attendance in the Board ot Common Council when the matter again comes up. It seems that the ‘ation mar- ket by an existing law ‘sr to be closed ata certsin hour, and while that market i+ n hucksters are prevented by law trom pur- chasing atall. So if the “from daylight uatii o'clock p.m.” bill, passed by the Council . y last vight, should go into effect, it would virtu- ly close all the groceries in town, and therefore this bill too will be vetoed by "he Mayor.
