CITY COUNCILS
The City Councils held their regular suited
meeting yesterday afternoon.
SELECT BRANCH.
The resignation of William Harris. Jr., Demo.
cratic member of Select Council. from the Six teen th
- Ward. was then read. The reason for so do, ng is
that he has removed from the city. Th.. communi
cation was accepted.
The committee to verify the cash accounts of the
City Treasurer, reported:
Cash accounts on the Ist instant' sfix , r2l 16
Trust Funds 29,371 65
The Committee on Water, to whom was then re
_ferred the subject of improving the faculties fur
.supplying the people of Kensington wi h water,
"reported that the Chief Engineer reports that it
'would require about $400.000 and about one year's
-labor to connect the Kensington works wth the
%Schuylkill works; and the committee, therefore,
recommend the ordinance authorizii-g;the eaten-
Sion of the wharf at Kensington and the erec;ion. of
:a stand-pipe at that point, at a cost of Sao Wu, as
..preferable to a connection with the Schuylkill
works at this time.
Mr. Zane said that it was admitted by the Chief
,Engineer that the water from the '4ohuylkill river
• could not be introduced into the Delaware Works
for two years. If such is the case,- the citizens of
Kensington should not be made io suffer until
-those arrangements are made. There were over
two hundred persons who died in that section
-during the past year from the effects of impure
- water furnished them, and it the ordinance does
not pass, perhaps double that number will pass
;away in the meantime. Surely we ,hould not
hesitate to expend thirty thousand dollars to bene
'lit those who give to the city a revenue of $96, OUO
per year.
Mr. Uhler believed that if the stand pipe were
introduced into the centre of the Delaware River,
.asnure water could be obtained as comes horn the
d' Sets-yak:ill. The latter river, is growing worse
every day, caused by the action of the waste coal
on the lime beds. He thought the city - was taking
- money out of- the pockets of the residents of Ken
sington, and not giving them the water for which
they paid.
Mr. Brightly said he would cheerfully vote any
amount to give the citizens of Kensington pure
water, but he was opposed to wasting thirty thou
sand dollars to patch up old works. It has been
slated that pure water can be introduced from the
.'Schuylkill River in one year, and if more money
is appropriated it can be done in less than that
time, and therefore he was opposed to the ordi
nance.
The debate continued for some tine, and the
yeas and nays being caled - on the first section, they
- restated as follows: Yeas 8, nays 12. The bill
therefore fell.
The same:committee presented an ordinance ap
propriating the sum of three thousand dollars to
the Department for supplying the city with water,
for the purpose of making surveys for the supply
-of water, to be brought from beyond the limits of
the city, which was agreed to.
• The special committee appointed to investigate
In reference to the sale of Pennsylvania Railroad
.stock reported that not the slightest blame could
be attached to the Commissioners of the Sinking
Fund. The report was accepted, and the commit
tee discharged from the further consideration of
-the subject.
- The ordinance appropriating 845, 000 for the ptir
-pose of making a survey of the environs of the
city, whicu was made the special order of the day
.for five o'clock, was then taken up. After a short
discussion, the further consideration of It was
postponed till next Thursday.
A resolution was then offered by Mr. Wetherill,
appropriating the sum of 5200,000 to give the citi
zens of Kensington more water, by introducing by
mains the Schuylkill water to the Delaware
?works. Referred to tne Committee on Water.
The resolution providing for the ringing of the
State House bell then came up on second reading,
'but was, without debate, postponed till the next
'meeting.
Mr. killer then presented a bill restricting the
•members of Select Council in debate to five min
•ntes' time, which was agreed to.
Mr. McElroy then offered a resolution author
'Ming and empowering the Bounty Fund Commis
sioners to pay the city bounty of e 2.50 to seamen
• enlisting in the United States service for three
.years, and who will be properly credited to the
•,quota of the city. Passed.
The ordinance from Common Council increasing
ache pay of superylsora Was not agreed to.
The ordinance increasing the salaries of the
officers employed at the Water Works was agreed,
to. (The increase requires an addition of over
000 to the annual appropriation )

journed.
COMNON BRANCH
A communication was received from the Schuyl
kill Navigation Company, stating that owners of
canal barges had complained that the Penrose
Ferry Bridge is in such bad order as to seriously
'obstruct the passage of the boats.
A message was received from the Mayor vetoing
the bill increasing the salaries of the telegraph
-operators at the Central Station. The Mayor con
siders that - the increase is unjust to the other op- -
orators, but as the telegraph operators have not the
same opportunity as policemen, of receiving re.
rinnneration for-extra services, he suggests that a
general increase of salaries should be made.
Mr. EVerhian moved to Consider the bill relative
to the bounties to re•enlisted veteran volunteers,
which had been vetoed by the Mayor and sub
sequently passed the Select Council.
Objection was made, but a motion to suspend the

The Committee on Poor reported an ordinance
• increasing the salaries of the employes in the Alms
house.
The Committee on - Port Wardens reported an
ordinance authorizing the extension of Vine street
wharf on the Delaware to the Warden's line. This
wharf is leased by the Cooper' s,Point Ferry Com
pany, and it was stated that the boats have great
difficulty in getting in, and frequently have to land
their passengers upon an adjoining wharf. The
improvement, it is estimated, will cost $20,000,
upon which the company is willing to pay six per
cent. per annum , in addition to their present rent.
The bill was passed.
Mr. Eckstein, from a special committee on the
qualifications of Amos Briggs, of Fourteenth
Ward, presented a lengthy report. The committee
held several meetings, and eleven witnesses were
examined. The - facts developed were as follow:
Mr. Briggs, for fourteen years, except the winter
of 1561 and the summer and fall of 1862, had his
domicil in the -Fourteenth Ward. In Me winter
of 1561 he occupied the premises No. 1628 Green
street,
and in June, 1862, he resided at the St. Louis
Hotel, and remained there until the 6th
cm 7th of October to the same year, In 1858 he
purchased a properiy in Bucks county, which he
occupied in the summer. In 1862 he was in nego
tiation for the purchase of the premises No". 604
North Thirteenth street, and on the 9th of October
the house came into his possession. The interior
•did not suit him,. and improvements were com
menced on the 13th and were finished about the Ist
of the next month. Mr. Briggs was there every
day. He might have resided there. At the Octo
ber election in 1862 he voted in the fourth division
of the SixthWard,not having resided in the Four
teenth Ward ten days prior to the election. The
petitoners produced no evidence to show that Mr.
Briggs had left the St. Louis Hotel after the 13th
-of October, and it was not proven that he.did not
reside at No. 604 North Thirteenth street. The
committee then quoted from several legal opinions,
' at d s ay the whole question is : Where was the
- domicil of Mr. Briggs on the 9th of October, 18621
Appended to the report was a resolution that the
-Common Council having heard and considered the
- case of Amos Briggs, to adjudge and determine
that the said Amos Briggs is qualified to hold a
seat in Common Connell':
Mr. Nickels presented a minority report, which
, i
-decla
seat ares th in at Mr. Briggs is disqualified from hold
men m oun of work
employed upon the house on north Thirteenth
sheet, in which they say that no person -resided in
while o the workuse, nor was there any furiture there
. going on, was quoted. In
regard to the residence at the St. Louis
Nickels stales in his report that the proprietor
testified that Mr. Briggs took a room theieandptit
-some baggage in it, in June, 1862, and remained
there until the 6th or Bth of October. His family
did not live there, and it was said that he was a
candidate for the nomination for District Attorney,
and ;did ;not Wish to lose his residence in the
city. There was no, evidence to show that Mr.
Briggs moved into the house on Thirteenth street
on the 9th of October, but, on the contrary, the
testimony of the witnesses, mechanics and others,
all contradict it. The case of Mr. Northrop was
referred to, and the minority,report closes by de
claring that the election of Amos Briggs on the 13th.
-Of October ; 1563, was undue and inyalid l and that
George R. Benin, who received the next highest
vote, should be declared elected.
The resolution, appended to the majority report
war then taken up.
Mr. Loughlin opposed its passage. He con
sidered that Mr. Briggs had no legalright to a seat
'here, as it is shown by the evidence that he did not
reside in the Fourteenth Ward, before the 30th of
October, 1862.
Mr. Eckstein replied to the remarks of the last
speaker. Be argued that Mr. Briggs had pax
cbased the house on North Thirteenth street with
the intention of making it his permanent resi
dcnc,-, but that he was prevented from "moving
Otto it by reason of the repairs required; but the
intention has been carried ont, and that house
should be considered his domicil from the time he
got possession of it, on the oth of. October, 1802.
Air. Creswell took the same view of the case.
A 'ter some further discussion the resolution was
adopted.
An ordinance appropriating $l5O to pay a part
of the funeral expenses of Lient.-Col Alone
was passed.
Amendments of Select Connell to the bill for the
grading of Broad street, from Fisher's lane to Ger
mantown road, were concurred in.
The ordinance from Select Council increasing
the salaries of the officers of the Girard estates
was referred to the Finance Committee. Ad
journed.
