The bill then passed by a vote of 23 yeas to 9 nays over the Mayor's veto. The Finance Committee, Mr. Shoemaker, chairmau, presented a resolution asking for the discharge of the committee from the con sideration of a communication from con tractors Jenkins and Taylor, asking relief trcm the city because the property-owners on Broad street had refused to pay them for lay ing the Nicholson pavement on that street north ot Ooates street. The contractors claim that they entered into a contract with the city for the work, and that they now hold in assessment bills the sum of $1)4,405 08, which, by the decision of the Supreme Court, are of no value, the Court deciding that property-owners cauuot be forced to pay for the paving of streets. After a long discussion the resolution was passed, and the matter was then, on motion of Mr. Wagner, referred to the Committee on Law. . The same committee reported an ordinance authorizing a loau of $500,000 for the erect ion of new school buildings, additions, etc. Re committed to the Committee on Fiuance. The same committee reported an ordlaance appropriating $34,490 to carry out the pro visions of the registry act $27,000 to be taken from the Treasury direct, aud the re mainder to be transferred from the appropria tion to the City Commissioners. By the act eight aldermen are to be employed for ten days, at three dollars per day, nine huudred canvassers, at three dollars per day, for three days, and sixty assessors, at $0800; $8000 for printing, etc., etc. Mr. lletzell opposed the bill. He said that moneys raised by taxation and for public pur poses should not be expended as proposed. He thought the act specified that a poll-tax was to be levied to carry out the provisions. and for this reason Councils should not pass the bill. It was a violation of the law, and a wrong npon the tax-payers. Mr. Bardsley said that the law directed the Assessors and Board of Aldermen to com mence their duties under the bill on the first Monday in June, 1800. Mr. lletzell said that the act does not state that they shall commeuoe their duties this year. The bill was then read, and Mr. netzell's remarks found correct, no year being specilled in the act. Mr. Bardsley contended that the gentlemen from the Sixteenth Ward was splitting hairs on a very fine point. Mr, Uetzoll observed that U bad no luten blon of splitting hairs, bnt wished to hcaf the till discussed. He called npon the cntrman of the Finance Committee to explain why the money should be taken from the Treas ury when the act provided that a ioll-Ux should be levied to carry out its provisions. , Mr. Shoemaker replied that no election can be held unless the act is recognized, and if no appropriation Is made no election takes place. Although he did not endorse the ac tion of the Legislature altogether, he did not believe that the members thereof intended to ignore the rotes of the public Mr. lletzell said his question had not been answered. Mr. Shoemaker replied that the bill would have to be accepted as a whole: one point joint could not be arrainged against the other. Mr. Dillon claimed that the act was unjust, and that the intention ot its passage wai to disfranchise hundreds of Dumoeratic voters. Mr. lletzell thought Councils ought not to pass the bill, as the constitutionality of the act is to he tested in a higher court, anil no legislation should take place until a decision was obtained. After some furter remarks, the yoas and nays were called, resulting yeas 31, nays 10; so the ordinance passed. From the Turuers' Society, of Philadel phia, was read an invitation to Councils to attend the reunion of the society on the 14tli instant. The invitation was accepted.
