A communication was received from Comptroller Bren- gan in opposition to the issue of fractional currency, which he céusiders a violation of Jaw, aud that he must, aherefore, decline toexecute the provisions of that ordi- mance. The Comptroller states that it would cost $95,000 for the expense of preparing the plates. The Comptroller also says that he is opposed to the purchase of the Fort Ganrevoort property, as he considers the title is not good, and bia convictions lave been thus®ormed from the fact of Mr. Draper’s former counection with the sale and pur- ebase of that property.

A regular meeting of the Board of Councilmen was held last evening, Morgan Jones, Fsq., President, in the chair. The minutes of the last meeting were read and ap- “proved. Councilman Wrssten presented a petition from an in- Spector and guager of liquors, oils, &c. The petitioner repre- sented that on the 20th ult. he received an order to guage tive hundred barrels of coal oil, the oi! being at that tine in Jersey City. Upon proceeding to perform the work he was prevented by the corporate authorities of Jersey City, and informed that, in consequence of not being @ resident ot Jersey City, he could not go on with the work, it being a violation of a city ordinance passed by the Common Council of Jersey City daring tho summer of 1862, The petitiouer further represented that a majority of the persons engaged in this city in the in- spection of domestic liquors and oils are actually resi- dents of Jersey City, and that the business of inspectors and guagers is almost entirely controlled by parties who reeide either in Jersey City or Brooklyn, The Common Council was therefore petitioned to take such steps in the matter us should serve to protect the citizens of New York, and place the inspectors and guagers resident therein on terms of equality with these of Brooklyn and Jersey City.

A communication was received from the Mayor trans. mitting the annual report of the receipts aud expendi- tures of the Cocper Union for the Advancement of Science and Art for the year 1862.

Councilman Gross said the subject was a very delicate one aud his motives might be impugned, but ho :elt obliged to oppose the passage of any such a resolution, He thought it was opening the door so wide that it could never be closed again. As tbe guardians of the interests of the city it was their duty to vote it down, If the amount should be allowed in ‘this case he felt convinced that before the year was out they would be called upon to pay some twoor three hundred thousand dollars to detray funeral expenses of volunteers who might die ei(her on the field of battle or in the hospital ‘The PRrEstent said he woutd warn the members of the Board against the adoption of any such resolution. He had Hittle doubt but that if it were passed they would find that undertakers would go down into Virginia and bring bodies up North for the purp se of claiming funeral expenses from the Common Counci:. Then, again, thero would be “repeaters,” who, for burying one body, would bring in perhaps five or six bills. ‘The caxe under con- sideration was, no doubt, a worthy one, but for the above roason he should be opposed to the pa:sage of the resolu- tion. On the question being taken it was lost by a vote of 13 in the negative to 9 in the affirmative. It was subsequently reconsidered and referred to the Committee on National Allairs. On motion, the Board then adjourned until Monday ing next, at five o'clock. “Ts Intelligence. Onaxae oF LANpionD® OF THK St. Nicno.as Horm.— Messrs.

Mercier wroteto Mr. Sew- ard, informing him of the representations mad» to him by M. Thouvenel upon the subject of considerable losses sustained by several French commercial houses, by reagon of the absolute impossibility of corresponding with the inhabitants of the southern States. In New Ur Jeans alone that loss is estimated at between six and eight millions of dollars, M. Mercier demanded ihat the Freveh conguls should be authorized, upon their own responsi bility, to forward to the interested parties the lette:s - addressed to them, after having agaured themselves tiit the contents of the said letters were purely commercial. Mr. Seward answered that the demand was of the bighest moment, and that it was for him to corfer on the subject with President Lincoin,at the same time apologising for not being able to grantat once what France requested. On the 27th February, 1862, M. Thouvenel asked M. Mercier to deny, as he had done previously, the recogni- tion of the Confederate government by ‘Frauce, sce that Power intended remajning strictly neutral, But on the 6th of March the Minister of Foreign affairs wrote to M. Mercier, stating that the success reaped by the federal army in Tennessee, might soon put an end to the campaign without the honor of the government of Washington suffering from it, and that France would see with great satisfaction that government en- deavoring to discover if there were not some other method of solving the difficulty than war. M. Thouvenel added that the Cabinet of Washington was alove in a position to take the initiative, aud to lay down the basis of a compromise, the necessity of whi.h is felt more keenly every day. This was the beyinning of the efforts which termina'ed in the note addressed by M. Drowyn de Lhuys ® the yovernmen's of England and Rwsia. But M. Mercier replied that the political situation of the North did not admit of bis taking that step—for the present at least—since it would evidently rewain without any success. Nevertheless, despite that refusal on the part of the French anbas sador, in aconversation he had with Mr. Seward, tbe latter induced M. Mercier to communicate to hin the last despatch of M. ‘Uhouvenel, after which, as the baron had anticipated, the Amecican Minister remarked that any step on the part of the neutral Powers with a view to bring about an arrengement could only complicats the actual difiicuities. M Mercier, in the letter in which he informed M, Thouyene that conversation, added Unat the almost general opinion in America about the war was as follows -—'* Nobody pretends to reconnect thy south to the Union against vs “will, but only te give it a les on, and to withdraw it from the influ nee of its present rulers, so that it might relurn of is own accord. ‘The tederaiists are determined to carry out the trial to the end, and it afcer that the majority of the Southern population persist in wishing to separate from the Union—weil, i will be suffered to do so.” ‘A despatch, bearin, Jate April 13, throws a little light Upon the journey undertaken to Richmond by Baron Mer- cier, and which created stich excitement at the time, It appears that he undertook il at the suggestion of Mr. Seward bimselt, who then believed in the speedy re- establishment of the Union, and without having previous- ly informed the Frencn government of bis inteution, Be- fore his departure M. Mercier came to an understanding ith our ambassador, and repeated to Mr. Seward that e Ob'ect of his journey was not connected with the recognition of the South, but only an aitempt to bring lout an arrangement. The American Minister charged him to state at Richmond that the North was actuated ty m0 sentiments of revere, arid that great satisfaction would be afforded to the nhataiunts ty the sight of such Senators as the South might consent to send. Of the many conversations which M. Mercier men- tions having had at Richmon) with several important Pergopages, that with Mr. Benjamin deserves to be noted down. That gentleman said that the South had reckoned too mich upon Europe aud the power of the commercial ‘nterests in suspense: but that, nevertheless, the whole population was unanimous in desiring a geparation. ‘the South bad guflered much, but ‘was resolved to s tier atili more to reach that gon!, “We do notdissemble rem ourselves, ed MY.
