Interesting Subjects Before the Common Council—The Offal Contract—The Briggs Committee Agaln In the Ficld—The Matselt Nativity Report—Shall We Have a Regis- try Law?—The Board of Supervisors and the Taxes, d&c., dc. BOARD OF ALDERMEN. ‘This Board met at five o’clock inst evening, Alderman Barker in the c'air. The minutes of the last mecting were read and approved. A petition was read from Justice Connolly, of the First District Police Court, asking for additional clerical help. It was referred to the Committee on Salaries and Offices. ‘The report of the Special Committee of the Board, pre- sented on the 22d of October, relative to the removal of blood and offal from the city, with the entire subject of the Reynolds contract, the purchase of Barren Island, and other matters connected with this affair, was taken up for discussion on motion of Mr. Ely. ‘The Clerk read the following REPORT. That the subject has been fully investigated, and your committee believe that it would be for the best interest of the city to advertise for a new contract for the term of five years, as proposed by the Board of Councilmen, and Be ae to make a complete settlement with Mr. Rey- nolds. Tt is Nery. castzable that speedy action should be taken to bring about a settlement, and to make a new contract, without any further delay; already @ year has elapsed since the settlement with Mr. Keynolds, and no new con- tract has been made. lt is high sime one should have been made, and doubtless one would have been made be- ome, if it had not been for the Mayor's veto in July But out of that voto has grown a difficulty which must first be removed, and that 13, the question’ whether Mr. Reynolds’ contract is nov yet in force. je insists that i> is, and he asserts that his release of his contract wae upon the condition that the city should pay him cighty-fve thousacd dollars, in full for his monthly earnings, and should purehase his property ata valuation to be fi and now he claims that, by reason of the Moyor's veto, the city refuses to carry out the settlomest, and therefore the settlement is void, and his contract i+ restored to full force. * * + * * * therefore be devised, and the ed to recommend this as best st and all difficulties un- Some other plan wn commitiee have cone! calculated to end the ¢ der it. Mr. Reynelds bes been executing the contract ever since the settlement in October, 1854. This he has done under the resolution passed by the Common Council in December 54, und by the employment of the City Ins who, in his testimony an- nexed, says, that “in December, 1854, the’ Com- mon ‘Council directed me to ‘make temporary arrangements for the removal of the offal, day by day, in the most economical manner, until a’ contract should be made, 1 cid so with Mr. Reynolds, making a verbal agreement simply for some tweive hundred dollars er Month less than, igi mitract price. In July jast, Mir. Reynolds serve h a written notice that such understanding was at an end, aud toat he should claim under the origiux| contract.” In answer to n question by your committee, whether the original contract, on fil! if his de sartment. had been relented or dischsrged, or Coes it sppear on its face to be in full force, Mr. Po wning said :—* [ have no evidence of its being canceled, other than the action of the Common Council of 1854; it appears upon its face to be in full force; I bave made no requisittons on the original con- tract since April, 1852, but Ihave, since that period, certi- fied Mr. Reynolds’ bills as being correct according to the terms of the contract on tile in the City Inspector's de- partment.”” For that service, Mr. Reynolds has been paid up to July 1, 1855, twenty-seven thousand ana forty-nine dol- lars and filty cedts, and at that time there was due to him, on the account of that service, the further sum, according to the cuntraci, of twenty-six thousand nine hundred and fitty dellars and fifty cents. There is now cue to him in the same manner, for performing the con- tract in the monthy of July, August and September, 1866, the sum of eighteen thousand eight hundred and one dollars; and there will be due, for the like service, during the current month of October, about five thou. sand five hundred dollars, making an aggregate for ser- vices rendered for the last thirteen months of fifty-one thousand two bundzed and fifty-one dollars and ditty cents. Your committee propose ‘o pay him that sum, and re- lease him from the obligation to seli the property to the city, and from any further pertormauce of the contract, pon his withdiawing his suit and releasing the city in By adopting this course, the city will be released from the obligation to take the property at the price of forty, six thousand seven hundred ana forty-five dollars and fifty-one cents, and he released trom the obligation to pay, during the residue of the term of the contract, viz.: until 24th of April, 1857, about five thousand five hua- dred dollars a mon! an aggregate, for keventeen montbs, of ninety-tl.rve thousand tive hundred dollars, and be fully at liberty, without further opposition or litt. gation, to carry out the economical recommendation of the Board of Councilmen. The proposition of George A. Scherpt to give the city fit- teen thousand dollars » year for the exclusive privilege of removing all the offal, blood, bones, &e., fram the city, with an addition of one thousand dollars a year for the auceceding four years, and to take all the ‘property on Barren Island at the sppraised value; ax also the propo- sition of L. Kk, Cornell, ho hi nisland in the vletnity m the city, free of expense, i by Mr. Reynolds, and of- ‘of Barren Island, to tate ail the substance fering good security gations, are propositions which certainly commend them- selves to the consideration and action of those who are entrusted with the interests of this city, inasmuch as the above named gentlemen are fully competent to carry out, pecuniarily or otherwise, the conditions of their ré- spective offers, But it must be as evident to the{Common Council, as it 18 to your committee, that the immediate subjent under consideration, viz: a proper acjus'ment of the obligations ‘af the city to Sr. Keynolix should first receive the atten- tion of your committee, in order that the Common Coun- cil may take such action as will sfford an ample and con- venient opportunity to the acceptance of any proposition more favorable to the well being of the city in respect both to health and finance. Your committee, i of all the facts presented, beg leave to submit for adoption the following resolutions: Resolved, That the City Inspector be, and he is hereby directed to advertise for proposn)s for estimates for a con- tract, to continue for five years from the date of the con- firmation of the same dy the Common Council, for collect- ing and removing dead animols, offal, &c., from the city, in sceordance with the specifications adopted by the Board of Councilmen, September 21, 1855, and herewith annexed, Resolved, That the Comptroller draw his warrant in fa- vor of Wm. B, Reynolds, for the sum of fifty-one thous- and two hundred and fitiy-oxe dollars and fifty cents for services rendered by him to the city in removing offal,&c., from the city, provided that said Reynolds will release the sity from the obligation to purehase Barren Island and other property, at the price of forty-six thousand seven fundree and for y-five dollars and fifty-one cents, and a release from the obligation to pay,during the residue of the term of his con:ract,any moneys whatever; and that said Reynolds will cancel the agreement on file in the City In- spector's office, and further, a full release of all claims t the city, that he may have for work performed by , and on th out of hia contract to remove the offal and dead animals from the city; and further, that said Reynolds will withdraw a'l suits against the city, and pay all expenses connec‘ed therewith at his own cost and ex- pense, JAMES R.

Scheriff, offering to poy the sum of $15,000 es a bonus, and $1,000 a year for five years after, for obtaining permission trom the city to remove frem the streets the dead animals, offal, &c., to a proper place. It was read Mr. Sr¥gRS observed that the committee haa given the subject much attention. They hid duly notified Mr. Flagg to atrené at some of their meetings, but he never wae before the committee. The action of Mayor Wood in vetoing the Reynolas contract resolutions of the Coun- cil had neutrallved the action of the Comptroller hereto- fore taken with respect tothe matter. Mr. Steera went on at great length to review the subject—as before published—rending from manuscript notes. The alderman supported on arrangement with Mr. Reynolds, who, he said, was ready to begin work in twenty-four hours, as he hada steambost which is now doing business asa towboat, Reynolds had lost much money by the trans- action. Asmuch as $65,000 had been lost also to the city by the cancelling of the contract with Mr. Reynoids, as he sh d be ultimately paid, This system should not be permitted to continue, and the Board should not in- cur the responsibility of permitting it to runon. The City Insyector shuld be autborized to adyertive for a contractor to do the work. Mr. Wnuam Tucner made a long aidrags detail. ing the action of the Special Committee o! the Board which sat in 1854 on this matter. Mr. Voontixs wished that the matter was disposed of. He react the legal release given by Reynolds to the eity of their contract f sum of $85,000, It did not con- tain a word, he said, of the Corporation buying all his old traps at Barren Island, with the lease of the place, and ail its dead and living old horses. The Comptr Jer acted in bad faith with the city on the subject and after having surrendered his contract, Seynolds comes on again in order to make them take the Island. The Com- mon Council coulu, and ought, to make a new contrast with seme otber person. They may, if they give the work to Scherff, Keynolds compromises with the city for the sum otf $85,600, ue he said it would cost bim $20,000 to lobvy a lnrger sum through the Board. He should now be distnis-ed. Mr. Wa, TUCKER again advocated a new contract. Mr. Steers replies to Me. Voorhies, and said that Rey- volds had acted in good faith with the authorities; but expected that Barren Island, and all bis appurtenances there would be taken from him at an appraisement. The appraisers had been actually nawed on both sides after the release paper wax #igned. The purchase of the is!and and tackle was actually the consideration for the release from the contract given by the city. In fact, Reynolds would por be pid the $85,000, unless he agreed to sell the island, ‘The appsaisement was really made, and the Comptioiler bad gent in a communication for an appro- priat ov. ALDERMAN OF FireT—What is the subject before the Board? Mr. S1rER¢—The “awful” contract. (Laughter.) Mr. Steers was about proceed, when— Mr. Cinysrie moved a postponemeet of the subjest to next Thursday. : Abr. TvckeR wished the matter as it now stood voted down. _ The postponement to Thursday was voted. The sub- ject then came up as a special order. Mr. Bnices then handed ia his full report on the “Mat- sell vativity’? case. It was a most ponderous looking document, and its appearance excited general laughter. Seine of the members called for the reading, to the grcat horror of the reader ‘The paper goes on to recapitulate the original resolu- tion of the Board, by which the Committee was appoint- ed, testimony taken, viz.: Mr. Matseli’s, Mrs. Wyckoff ’s.

BOARD OF COUNCILMEN. ‘This Board met yesterday afternoon at their chamber in the City Hall, the President, D. D. Conover, in the chair, The minutes of the last meeting were read and approved. Petitions were first in order, but none of importance were presented. Resolutions being next in order, the following was of- fered by Councilman Holder :— Resolved, That the representatives to the Legislature from the city and county of New York, be requested to use every exertion to eflect the passage of a judicious registry law. Alter some debate the above resolution was laid over. ‘The follow ing resolution, among others, was adopted:— Resolved, That a comiittee of five be appointed to make suitable arrangements for celebrating Evacuation Day, and the sum of $1,000 be appropriated for that pur- Dee. ‘Tke Board then went into the third reading of bills, and finally adjourned without accomplishing any impor- tant business. BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. ‘The Board of Supervisors met yesterday, at 4 P. M., pursuant to adjournment, his Honor the Mayor in the chair, Sundry petitions for correction of taxes were received, and, with afew minor bills of no public interest, referred to their appropriate committees. COPYING IN THE COMMON PLEAS COURT, Acommunication was received from the Comptroller in answer to a resolution of inquiry as to the amounts paid from the city treasury since say 1, 1854, for alleged extra services for copying papers in the office of the Court of Common Peas. With the communication was transmitted a list of the names of those to whom the pay- ments in question had been made, with specification of the work performed, and the amounts respectively paid. The total amount ‘given as paid, was $2,864 30, in sums varying from $20 to $175. The communication was or- dered on file. PERSONAL TAXES, ‘The Committee on Annual Taxes, to whom was refer- red the report of the Receiver of Taxes, laid before the board on the 20th of October last, presented this report, in which they expressed approval of the proposition of the Receiver of Taxes to print the statements furnished, and offered for adoption a resolution to that effect, di- recting that auch detailed statement of unpaid personal taxes be published in the newspapers of the city. ngthy discussion ensued, Supervisor Keity moved the acceptance of the report and adoption of the resolution, Recorder Sait said he hoped the resolution would not be adopted. Ita effect would be to blazon forth tothe world the names of a large number of individuals as unable to pay their inxes, whose credit would thus be unnecessarily impaired, in some cases perhaps to ® most sericus degree. It was not improbable many might tem- porally be unable to pay even their personal taxes; but, tx wan well known, there were often private conditions, as it were, in the monetary affairs of a man in which the ‘smnallest payments were of the utmont consequence. The publication of the statements called for by the resolution they bad no right to make. Legal facilities were afforded for all requisite researches touch- ing the payment or receipt of all public monies. Th resent publication he added, would be, moreover, « ‘bellows one, He eited the fact that not ong since a re. search, at great expense, was instituted, of judgmen‘s against individuals indebted to the city, with a view to their publication. Upon consulting counsel, it was dis- covered that to make the proposed publication, would be Iitellous, and the same was accordingly abandoned, While publication was necersary to aid in carrying out the law, it might be justifiable, but to coerce the pay- ment of taxes by any such process was altogether wrong. There was a way pointed out to collect taxes, and it was necessary where there were delinquencies, to adopt this course, Supervisor Evy said he was not so sensitive of proclam- ing ‘tp the world the names of individuals not having paid ‘a constituted and legal obligation. He the adoption of the resolation on the ground that it was due those who bad Sr position of Receivers ot Taxes since the organization of that adjustment. It bad been alleged that taxes had been paid that had never been entered upon the books of the Receivers, should all the Receivers bear the forge Meh eg intimations. The publication propored would show who had paid, and to whom pay- Thents bad been made. The bureau would, in his view, 50 exbibit itself, as to exonerate it from alisuspicion. As to ite being libellous, he could not see how it could be. The originals from which the publication was to be made Wat accessible to every citizen by law to ge | whenever he chose. Instead ofa libel thousands w be glad to know of payments thus due by them of which they were at it totally ignorant. He moved to amend the rescletion by including ali taxes unremitted. Mayor Woon stated that the statements in question furn- ished by the prevent Receiver of Taxes were called for by himself, and tor purposes he deemed of great importance. After explaining the difference in the law regulating the collection of personal taxes, and taxes wy Teal estate, he stated that in the collection of the there was Tt was im ble to tell apparent gros negligence. whether for the pert ten years there been pay: ment of personal (axer—the books had not been balanced durh jis time, He was opposed to its continuing so ad infinitum. The Receiver of Taxes said there were $600, of personal taxes due city, Some of this might be collected, not be collected, it could be made s charge against the State, and thus be virtually so much money in the City Trea cury. It was furthermore his duty to see that the Receiver did his duty in this matter. If s man did not RY his tax, it was no libel, in his judgment, to make the t known Those attempting to evade euch payment he thought the sooner exposed the better. The oe were tax-ridden enough, and it was desirable to lessen em an far x8 could be. He had no doubt a publication of the detailed statements under discussion would bring $1£0,000 into the teasury. Recorder Syrru su that a committee be appointed to eecertain who had paid taxes, and 10 whom they ha poid them. It was very clear that it peri had paid thei: taxes, and they had not been credited the amount, that their numes ought not to appear as delinquents, Superviver Herrick approved the publication, It was only a multiplication of a public document. Supervisor Lorp, in reply to Kecorder Smith, urged that no committee could make the examination sug gested. Ii was a thing impossible to be done, It was moved to strike out the newspapers, and that the statements be published in decumentasy form, Fut ther ciseus+ion foll. wed, when the resolution was finally adopted with the emendments as offered.

GRADING FLFTY-THIRD STREET, The Commitee on Assessments of the Board of Alver- men met yestercay at 2 P.M, at the Street Commis. sioner’s office, Present, Aldermen Varian, (Chairman,) Fox and Voorbis. The assessment for grading avd regulating Fifiy-third street was the only paper considered. The reports of the tw» Council Boards in favor of not paying Mr, John Quinn’s heirs, (he beiag the original contractor, and lately deceased,) the amount alleged to be due on the contract, 2s aiso the yeto of the Mayor in relation to the payment of the same, were taken op and examined, together with sundry certificates aod accounts of payments from the Street Commission. ers’ Department The papers thes exanined showed that Mr. John Quinn entered into a contract in Novem- ber, 184%, to regulate and grade Kifiy-third street, ani that by the terms of the contract he was to be allowed fifty cents per cubic yard for exeavating rock, In 1852 a new giute having béen established by the Street Com- qissiover, a subsequent contract was entered into with Mr. Quinn, in which one dollar per cubic ysrd was to be quid for the rock excavation, xe entire demand fur the work with that previcusly pai, is $80,694 13. The onginsl etimate was only $11,000. Property owners f the street protest sgainst puyment of the ditional wese-sinent required under the new contract, ou ground that the property to be asaessed cannot be elled by Inw to pay a greater sum than that gagreed the original contract. It is further objected that the property will rot bear the assessment, and that if the same be allowed *hat $16,000 of the sum will b: wo be paid by the city. ‘The additional allowance of fifty cents jer cubic yard o! rock is alleged as too great, and be. sidew that, 6 Jarge portion of the work specified to have been done was never performed. Mr. John Quinn, son of the criginal contractor, appeared before the commit- tee and urged the allowance of his claim. The work he declared had been executed according to contract. He had other contracts for grading streets uncerway and greatly needed the money to enable him to proceed with them. The committee separated without agreciog upoa the report to submit to this Board. the report, to which a to postpone the sub- City Intelngence. Tre Weather was dismal yesterday; cloudy, sombre, dreary, drizzly, rainy and everything that was wncom- fortabie. It was suggestive of unpleasant thoughts, of suicide, pestilence and famine; of war, murder and sud- den death. The morning was glorious, and about noon the rain fell in a thin mist, penetrating ond soaking people’s garment, until they were all wringing wet; then it began to patter on the streets, on the bouse tops, in sudden gusts sgainst the window, and so continued until the small hours of the night, without cessation. We are now in the midat of November, and so far, have had mild wea- ther enongh; soon, however, we may expect Jack Frost will mske his appearance, and some fine morning New York will wake up and find bis icy fingers bave touched everything, and made the air chilly and cold. It is no- ticeable that very often after a ‘wet spell” a ‘cold snap" makes it appearance.

As the senson is rapidly approaching requiring the erection of stoves and other kinds of apparatus for heat- ing dwellings and places of business, I deem it my duty to suggest some measures of precaution, im order, if pos- sible, to guard against many of the conflsgrations liable to occur at this time of the year, [feel eativfied if the measures of prevention I am about. to lay before you be adopted and faithfully carried out, that a large proportion of fires, now so prevalent, will bo contiderably diminished and perhaps stopped altogether. In the first place. my experience shows that a larger number of fires are Seaeei ie the incautious use of matches than people generally imagine. 2d. In the care.ese manner of adjusting stovepipe. fd. The loose and improper habit of depositing coal and wood asbes in woocen vessels, 4th. In thoughtlessly leaving lighted lamps or cand es pear inflammable materials, 1 would direct especial attention to the careful use of friction matches of afl descriptions, but more particularly to the kind known as wax mat:shes, as rats and mice not only seize upen them ss a means of immediate subsist- ence, but convey them into their holes and hiding places, Vetween the Inth and plaster and flooring, and there, with paper, rags and other inflammable material, form their nests, Sooner or later the matches are nibbled, ignited and the building fired. ‘Agai, matches should, upon all cecasions, be kept out of vhe reach of children; for not only do they fire the premives with them while 2 play, but too often their own lives are sacrificed. ‘The practice of crowding large quantities of goods in store windows, and placivug them in. the immediate prox- imity to gas ligits, becomes exceedingly hazardous, as in such cases theovncen'ration of heat is apt to produce spontaneous comOus.ion, aud the slightest puff of air among the articles carries a portion nearer the light, when a fire instantly takes place. Camphene and buraing fluics, all must admit, are ex- cooringry cangerous for family use, particularly when used by thoughtless and careless persons, or those not aware of their inflammable avd explosive properties. It you suffer it to be used in your family, never permit mps to be trimmed ater night fall, but see that it is done in the duy time, If this latter precuution be #! ly adhered to, we shall have occasion to record but of those distressing and fata) accidenta from camphene ard fluid which have been so frequent during the past year. 7 Coal and wood ashes should on all occasions be care- fully looked after, an never deposited in wooden vessels, a innpy fines cwe their origin to a careless deposit of ashes. The recent calamitous fire in State street. by which six persons were burnt to death, may justly be attributed to the careless manner of depositing coal ashes in the kitchen, ‘The abgve suggestions are respectfully submitted for consideration. If strictly carried out 1 am convinced that the sesult will egain prove the well settled maxim— “Thai an ounce ot prevention is worth a pound of cure.” A. E. BAKER, Fire Murshal. Marine Affairs. One oF Tur Viersy rae Navat Boarp.—We learn with much pleasure thut Mr. L. B, Avery, formerly a Lieate- nant in the Navy, but recently # victiw of the stupidity or tyranny, or something worse, of the retiring Board, ix about to be placed in command of one of the best clipper ships that eail out of New York. His expulsion from the service was one of the most indefensible and outrageous acts of the Board, He leaves behind him in the navy no more thorough reeman—no better equipped man in all the requisites of an accomplished officer, in ull the ele- ments of a great naval commander. Full of chivalris in- trepidity, always sett-possessed and self-sustained, even under circumstances caleuiated to task the powers of the ablest and most experienced sailor, Avery was peculiarly fitted for the profession he haa choven. \ Ever a favorite on thipboard, his dismissal caused equal regret and astonishment among bis acquaintances afioat and sxhore, and his present good fortune will give the liveliest gratification to them all. As a lieutenant, he re- ceived fifteen hundred dollars a year while at sea, and was always liable to the eaprice aud injustice of such men as drove him from the service. Ax the captain of a first class clipper ship, his salary will ‘be atleast $4,000, and his position one of more indepen- dence und greatly superior dignity.—-Huffulo Advertiser. Tne U, 8.
