enough, wben, with roads in his ward Impassa
ble, there were only seventy-eight dollars and
thirty-three cents to repair them.
Mr. Bardsley did not like to favor extra appro
pi lations, except where there was a great neces
sity. Here was one. Upon an accurate calcula
tion, it will take twenty-five tbonsand dollars to
repair live miles of road. With the appropriation
ail exhausted we would have to fence in the roads,
becaus they were Impassable.
Mr. Wagner, like Mr. Bardsley, waa not a friend
of special appropriations, and corroborated Mr.

Mr. Littleton. Chairman of the Commlt'ee on
the merger of the Frunklin and Warren with tbe
Philadelphia and Erie Kailroad, offered his report
uud asked lor the discbarge ot the committee.
i ne committee unanimously reports that such a
mrger would be Injurious to the interests of the
1 htiadeiphla and Eue Kuilroad Company aud the
city of Philadelphia. Iu nn elaborate report the
hutory of the road from the year of its laying, in
lr 61, is given. It is asserted that, no stock was ever
actnally subscribed for, and that the price asked Is

A reference to this state of things waa made in the
resolutions attached to this report.
mr, avails criticisea the opinion of the City So
licitor, and said that there was a great difference
between his opinions in the Ovens and McMullen
cases.
After some further diecussion. in which it was
stated that Mr. Barnes was a member of the Cham
ber, and the Chamber could attend to his case, Mr.
Littleton asked that the committee be discharged.
and, also, to save expenses, the evidence be not
printed.

The Grand Jury found no true bill against Alder
man McMullen, and yet this committee said he
was a leader of moos, it was ane to Aiaerman
McMullen that this evidence be printed, to show
on what grounds the committee charged him with
being a leader of mobs.

Fifth street, for five years from tbe 1st of August,
1S-07; alto authorizing tbe appointment of additional
draughtsmen and other employes for the Kegistry
linreau, was caned up.
The ordinance excited considerable debate, it
was opposed on the ground that It gave the oppor
tunity, which was admitted, of appointing new
employes, thus entailing additional expense on the
city, and that new accommodations at vast expense
were not necessary. It was contended, on the
other hand, that new accommodations and new
employes were necessary. The department had
now six by nine accommodations, and It was im
possible to transact the enormous and increasing
business promptly. Alter many motions to amend
and to strike out, Jcc, it was pussed in the follow
ing shape:
Section t. The Select and Common Councils do
