TheKegister says: ‘It has not been the practice of this ofitce to consider the produce dealers’ license as a market license, it being rated the same for doing business either in or outside of the market, and was not so consi]- ered under the old law, in which it was desig- nated as a huckster’s license, and the proceeds separated trom the revenue of the markets. The Center market bears a peculiar relation to the District government, so far as relates to the licensing of the dealers therein, they claiming, under the organization of the marketcompany, exemption from such tax. Consequently, the proyirce of the police ferce being to arrest when no license is shown, the officer has left the mat- ter (o take the usual course, viz: The police ar- rest the delinquent and the court decides as to theentoreement of the license.” Referred to @pe committee on markets, SANITARY.

[The amend- ment adds thanks to General Chipman,Deiegate from the District to Congress.)

He thought, also, that it was an act of discourtesy for one honse to amend asimple resolution of thanks adopted by the other.

THE NORTHERN MARKET-HOUSE QUESTION. Mr. Campbell moved to suspend the rnies and take up the bill in relation to a market-house in the northern section of the city; agreed to. After a number of dilatory motions had been acted on, Mr. Murray moved to amend the Council amendment by providing tor the pur- chase of the whole or a part of square 85 fora western market. The amendment was earnestly advocated by Speaker Hulse, (on the floor,) who said the sentiment of the people inthe western section of the city was almost unanimous in favor of the proposed site.

Bond, Brewer, Brown, Bursley, Campbell, Carroll, Choate, Collins, Cox, Davis, Dickson, Handy, venue, Hogan, Hunt, LeBarnes, MoKnight, Murray, Piper,’ Shepherd, Wall and the Speaker, (Hulse.)
