The Committee on Law reported back the communication from thecontractors for the magma's , work atthe Chestnut street bridge, with reference to the retained percentage for the work done. The Committee report that the claim is just, but the delay is caused by the contrac tors for the iron. The Committee was dis charged from the further consideration of the subject. lug th e submitted an ordinance repeal.. ing the ordinance providing for paying damages for taking the ground at Landing avenue for public purpose Mr. King faYored the ordinance, because, if nceessary, he could produce facts to show -• how improper the former action of the chamber was, in view of what had since occurred. The jury . to assess damages had run up the amount to $486,000. The tax payers would,be astounded when they were made acquainted with the facts. At con siderable labor he had carefully examined the property, and had compared the previ ous assessments on the Assessor's btoks with the award of dSmages.

Mr. Van Cleve thought he thanks of the citizens of Philiadelphiaywere due to Mr. King for his industry.fn ferreting out these facts, but the originalerdinance should not be repealed when Councils.could reach the object in view by having the award of dam aces set aside. If the subject came before the Committee on Law, he would guarantee a prompt and searching investigation. Mr. Spering said it was not right that Mr. King's statement should go before the pub lic without some explanation. He had no doubt.that the awards were excessive, but in some caseeit might be that the seeming excess might be due to the loose way we have of assessing, property in Philadelphia. It frequently occurred that valuable pro perty had been assessed at a very low figure. The award in this case was known to the City Solicitor, and he had, determined to go before the Court and object to the confirma tion of the award. Mr. King's ordinance was referred to the Committee on Law. Mr. King next introduced a resolution directing the citySblicitor to take early and prompt measures to prevent a confirmation of the above award. Agreed to. Mr. Gray (II.) offered a resolution re questing the General Assembly to enact a law for the permanent improvement of Broad street. The bill provides that Michael Bouvier, Henry .Diston, Mathew. W. Baldwin and T. B. Peterson, be declared a body politic and corporate, by the name and title of "The Citizens' Association for the improve ment of Broad street, in.the city of Phila delphia." They;are empowered to 'adopt and carry into effect such plans as they may deem ex pedient for keeping Broad street free from railway tracks and other obstructions - which shall interfere with, or Mar, in, the judgment of said corporation, the character and beauty of said street as the -principal avenue or drive of said citv,and for improv ing, adorning and beautifying said street, provided that all plans adopted by said hDr poration be submitted to and 'approved by councils. The corporation is empowered to remove all railroad or railway tracks - except -such. as no* or hereafter may: cross said Bpad street at the intersection, of streets running' east or west,' and except the track of: the Philadelphia, Germantown' and:Norristown Railroad (lompany, and to 'cause such street or Solniieli and such portions thereof, from time to time; to be paved, rePaved and ma , eadamiiedor 'graveled Pt such manner or • mode of Pavenient,.. in whole` :or in part, as • .

The President—Broadstreet had better be created into a distinct municipality. • Mr. Gray said some of the most estimable gentlemen in the city were desirous to im prove Broad street, and make it what it should'-be, the 'handsomest street in the world. There was no railroad job in it, and the expenses wuld be borne by the gentle men named in o the bill. A bill similar to this one would be passed by the Legislature and as Councils had complained of the passage of bills without knowing !their contents before, he had submitted this one, and asked that it be printed. Several members • exclaimed, "That's a biglhing." The subject was referred to the Committee on Law. Mr. Gray explained that the objeet was to beautify Broad street. The gentlemen who are the incorporators are among our most respectable citizens, who desire to im prove the street at their own expense. Referred to the Committee on Law. The annual report of the Trustees:of the Philadelphia Gas Works was received and ordered to be printed. John Manuel and Wm. Elliott were elected Trustees 'of the Philadelphia Gas Works. The annual appropriation -bills to the De partment of Water, Department of Health, Department of Clerks of Councils, Depart ment of Inspectors of County Prison, and the Department of Schools , were adopt ed'. The ordinance with reference to flagmen on the line of the Germantown and Norris town Railroad was concurred in. The resolution suspending the Fairmount and Good-Will-Engine Companies was con curred in. Adjourned. COMMON BRANCH. A communication was presented from Mr. H. Bickley, proposing to enter into a contract with the city for a period of five years for the cleansing allthe paved streets, removal of ashes, &c., at the rate 4495,000 per annum. Mr: Palmer submitted a resolution autho rizing the Chief Commissioner of High ways to enter into a contract with Mr. Bickley, in accordance with his proposition. After a few remarks, the resolution was referred to the Joint Special Committee on Street Cleaning. Mr. Stokes submitted an ordinance autho rizing the West Philadelphia Base Ball and Skating Club to erect wooden buildings at Forty-first street, north of Lancaster. James M. Cowell and Wm. R. Leeds were elected Trustees of the Philadelphia Gas Works. The ordinance making an appropriation of $887,811 97 to the Board of Controllers of Public Schools for 1866, was taken up. Mr. Dillon moved to strike Out, all the items referring to the Boys' and Girls' High Schools. Not agreed to. Yeas 15, nays 20. Mr. Simpson moved to strike out the am propriations to the Boys' High SchooL Mr. S., in making the motion, said that he believed that a majority of the citizens were in favor of abolishing the school. We tax the people to give them an equal system of education, bnt only about four per cent. of the pupils can be educated in the High School. Of those educated- there, [seventy per cent. were drones upon the community. He was in favor of encouraging the Gram mar Schools, by raising the standard of education. Mr. Willits believed the institution had done a great amount of good. Many of the young men educated at the High School had become distinguished in many walks of life. Many years ago we had to obtain teachers from other States, but now our High Schools giVe us teachers that do a credit to the city. Mr. Creswell - desired Mr. Willits to name the location of any of these teachers. Mr. Willits replied, that be came from one of the outside wards, and was not very well acquainted with the teachers, but be could name at least a dozen that would not have been teachers but for the High school. He thought it would be a serious thing to with draw all support from the High School so Suddenly. Mr. Creswell said the High School costs a great deal more than it should for the bone 'tit derived from it. He was in favor of raising the ' standard of education in the Grammar Schools, and abolishing the High School. Mr. Hancock believed that we should compel every child to attend school until a certain age. He thought the $27,000 asked for the High School, would be of more ser vice if appropriated to educate those who now never go ' , to school. The city should give a fair English education and nothing else. Mr. Taylor said boys had been 'admitted to the school, and we are bound to make an appropriation to educate them. Mr. Franciscus opposed the motion to strike out. He believed the High' School to be an excellent institution and deServing of the support of Councils. He had graduates of that school in his employ, and he desired no better men. Mr. Billington was in favor of education, but he doubted the propriety of maintaining a college out of the money of the taxpayers. A good English education is all that can be expected from the public schools.' Mr. Dillon said that the education in the public schools was becoming so superior to that obtained in the private schools, that the rich were monopolizing the schools and' keeping out the poor. Mr. Hetzell said the High School only gave the boys a smattering of learning, while it failed in giving them an education of a practical character. He was in favor of abolishing the High School, because the grammar schools would then be fostered, and the system of cramming a few pupils to get , them in the High School, done away with. 1 Mr. Evans opposed the amendment;and during his remarks read from the report of the. Controllers of the Public ! Schools to show that the graduates of the High Schopl were not drones; but were;fillinghigh and re sponsible positions in the 'various pursuits of life. The motion to strike out the! appropria tion to the High School was loat--yeas 17, nays 25. Mr. Harrison - moved to amend the bill , by adding 25 per cent. to the salaries of the teachers.

Bogrow, Jan. 25.—The thirty-fifth annual meeting of the Massachusetts Anti-Slavery Society was held to-day, Edmund Quincy presiding. Among the resolutions offered was one to dissolve the society, which gave rise to a long discussion,- in wtuch William Lloyd Garrison presented an exposition of his views, saying that the nation - had de creed, by its organic low, the utter extinc tion of slavery. The public sentiment was connected with and confirmed in its devo tion to freedom, and the foot of war had added its crushing tread to the extinction of slavery. The word "anti-slavery" was no longer distinctive, for to-day the country was all anti-slavery. The old reproach was taken away, and the uncompromising demand for freedom to the oppressed was no longer needed. The men and women of this society are fanatics. incendiaries or infidels no longer. They had not gone down to the millions, but the millions had come up to them. Henoe forth the members of the society were to enter on a new work; not anti-slavery work, but the work of securing the education, elevation and political rights of property and the franchise to the nem . ° man, and in this we would besupporteci by and act with the masses of the American people. Wendell Phillips and others opposed the proposition to dissolve, and on a vote the resolution was defeated. The following new officers of the society were elected: President, John T. Sar geant; Vice President, Miss M. T. Sever ance; Corresponding Secretary, Charles K. Whipple. Eclectic Medical College. Yesterday afternoon the fifteenth annual Commencement of the Eclectic Medical Cot lege of Pennsylvania, was held ac the Col lege Hall.
