GRADING OF THE BOWERY EXTENSION. ‘The Committee on Streets of the Board of Councilmen, Mr. Van Riper, chairman, met yesterday afternoon, at 3 o'clock, to hear parties upon grading the Bowery, a9 ex- tended from Chatham street to Franklin square. There Was @ Lumerous attendance of préperty owners and oth- ers on the line of the extension, whose property would be affected by the grade to be estab¥shed. ‘The Cuairmay explained that two Giferent grades had been petitioned for. One grade extended the street down on a level with the start, at the corner of Pear! and Frankfort streets; the other grade termimated in front of the establishment of the Messrs. Harper. Ex.Mayor Haxrer, who first appeared before the com- mittee, strenuousl; ed the grade terminating iv fropt of his establishment. He stated that by fixiog the grade, as thus proposed, the basement of his building would be made the first story. This would destroy the architectural beauty and character of the frout. He was willing to take bis share of the inconveniences he might be called upon to sustain, as a private citizen and property owner, for the public good, {m this case he claimed that laying the grade even with the level of Frankfort street would be the best grade, and afford better satisfaction to owners of property on the street generally. Ex-Alderman Kxi1y advocated the grace asked for by Mr. Harper. He said: that a majority of those owaing bulidings and lots on the street, as newly extended, pre- ferred this grade. Mr. Wat. CxvGxr said that the level of the grade was not so much of a point with most of the property owners. They were waiting to haye some grade established that they might go on and put up new buildings. Contracts for’ building involving over $1,000,000, hs added, were waiting the establishment of a grade before they could be entered upon. Several others spoke, coinciding with Mr. Cruger. ‘The Cuamman stated that as the sentiment appeared to berearly all on one side, they would hear no further arguments, but report at an early day. THE CHARGES OF CORRUPTION. ‘The special committee of the Councilmen appointed to investigate into the charges of official corruption against Councilman Van Tine, were announced to meet yesterday afternoon, A large number of Councilmen and others in- terested in the proposed investigation, and curious to learn the nature of the facts to be developed, were pre- ‘nt. As only two members of the committee were in attendance, the examination was postponed(ill Monday next. City Intelligence.

Wm, Nicklin and Fer- dinand Hogge, the latter to act as ioterpreter to th: Germans. Oliver Durea and Wm. Miller were chose Secretaries, Mr. Nicktix, upon taking the chair, explained the pur pose for which they had met. This, he said, was to pro tert against the action of Congress in contracting the United States lithographing to outsiders who were not practica Lithographers, or not carrying on legitimate lithograph bu siness, The ‘effeot of thisgwas greatly to diminish thei ‘wages, as these outsiders would "sublet the work t jationers, through whom the job would finally com to lithograpbers. On this account. where they ought to receive eighty seven and @ half cents fortwenty nine inch work they gotdags seventy cents. They bad borne this imposition long’@nongh, and he thought it time they should manifest their dissent. All of the craft were not affected, but some were, and the interests of these few, he considered, should be the interests of the whole number. Mr. Stovk said that be coincided with the sentiments of the Chairman. He was not individually affected himself, as be was not engaged upon United States aes but he felt it.a duty to act with anc for those were. He suggested, as an important preliminary step, thas the co-operation of their bosses be first obtaired. no ceubt bot that they would unite with them, as this move. ment was not a strike, but one that benefitted the bosses as well as themselves. He moved that the bosses be conferred with, which was carried Dir. Exo moved that all who were at present at work upon United States lithographing stop work forthwith. Mr, Rinpux op this as a step uncatied for imme- diately. It would throw some out of employment, and be thereby a serious inconyrtence. He asked what re- Nef there thas being thrown out of work wovld have? ‘The Prespent (Mr. Nicklin) thought it thetr duty to stand up for thelr Fights, every ober consideration axide, Mr. Metixet moved that those stopping off work have their lonves made up to them by others of the trade. ‘The motion, after some further remarks, was put and carried, ax also the motion of Mr. Eno above.
