    CITY COUNCILS.
A stated meeting was held yesterday of
ternoon.
SELECT BRANCH.
A resolution was introduced by Mr. Spar
ing to change the site of the new Court
-House on Sixth street in such manner that
the front of sixty feet on Sixth street be ex
tended into the square, so that the building
shall stand east and west instead of north
and south, provided that the additional cost
shall not exceed $B,OOO.
Mr. Spering explained that the judges
warmly urged a change of the present plan.
The increased cost is caused by the en
hanced accommodations, while the contrac
'tors are entirely willing to go on with the
original work at contract price.
Mr. Gray opposed the uassage of the reso
lution. Be was -opposed . to the whole thing,
It would be far better to spend $lOO,OOO to
:put np a proper building • on Logan Square
than to spend $35,000 upon a side structure
like this.
• A motion to refer to the Committee on
'City Property- was not agreed to.
The resolution was ultimately passed—
Teas 15, nays 7.
Mr. BarlOw offered a resolution requesting
the opinion of the City Solicitor whether, the
-Controllers of Schools have the right to pay
for the erection of school-houses in
,certift
,cates of the school loan at par; and whether
the Mayor may lawfully i ssue such loan for
the payment of such contracts.- Adopted..
Mr. Page presented a resolution providing
- for the appointment of a special committee
of five to examine and report upon the man
agement and condition of the Philadelphia
Gas Works, and that, to that end, the com
mittee be authorized to send for persons and
papers, and to examine books and doca
thents, in order to show the receipts and ex
penditures, the number of employes, and
the salaries paid to them. Also, to ascer
tain what abuses exist, what they consist in
:and how they can be remedied.
Mr. Page spoke in support of his resolu
tion at much length. When a similar reso
lution was introduced into Common Coun
'ail, it was objected to on the ground that the
trustees of the. Gas Works were gentlemen.
'The managers of the United States Bank
'were gentlemen, so were the directors of the
Schuylkill Bank, and yet the sighs of the
widow had not ceased, nor were the tears of
- the orphan dried that were caused by their
mismanagement of the business intrusted
to them. The Bank of Pennsylvania, the
Moyamensing Bank, a host of saving funds
and a legion of petroleum companies have
been under the 'direction of "gentlemen,"
-or by persons supposed to be gentlemen.
- Yet how wide-spread misery have these
same gentlemen originated. The speaker
tread from the ordinance creating the trust
-to prove that Councils have the right to
make the investigation proposed, and also
showed that the Chief Justice of Pennsyl
vania entertained like opinion.
Mr.lcing expressed the opinion that Court
-cubs have a full right to make the investiga
tion desired. He was very glad of an op
portunity to vote for it. The resolution is a
Just one, and the public demand it ; almost
every day the newspapers are talking about
the Gas, Works. Everybody, the news
papers included, are in the dark concerning
the management. The fact is that the trus
tees should transact their business as other
:bodies do, with open doors, that the press
'may chronicle their proceedings. It is now
full twenty-five years since there was an
audit of their accounts. It is high time that
a little light was let into the Cimmerian
darkness of the operations of the Gas Trust.
Mr. Gray said that while he had implicit
faith in the gentlemen having charge of the
trust, be would yet vote for the investiga
tion. Gentlemen should remember, how
'ever, that this trust is a self-sustaining in
stitution, and that, like the business of a
private firm, there are many things con
nected with their affairs that the public
have no right to know. No business firm
would like to hold a counting-house con
- sultation with open doors. In the Gas
Trust the speaker had implicit faith, and
he was quite sure that the proposed haves
- ligation would but increase their reputation
for diligence and efficiency in the care of
the interest committed to them.
The resolution was adopted.
Mr. Freeman now offered a resolution.
It asks the Legislature to pass a bill "to
t promote the more equal assessments of
,property in Philadelphia, in order to re
lieve the burdens of taxrpayers." This was
adopted.
The amendments to the bill making an
appropriation to the Fire Department for
1866 were now insisted upon, ,and a commit
of conference was appointed.
The resolVion from Common Council
protesting against the passage by the Legis
lature of a bill giving Twelfth, Sixteenth
and other streets to the uses of a passenger
railway, waaconcurred in.
Also, a resolution for the opening of Co
lumbia avenue, Montgomery avenue and
Diamolid street.
A resolution directing the Chief Engineer
of the Water Works to prosecute the sur 7
veys and necessary examinations for bring
ing, in the waters of the Perkiomen creek
and its tributaries; to prepare plans and
-estimates of the same, as well as to exam
ine other available sources of supply, and
submit the same to the consideration of
Councils, was then passed.
The bill from Common Council asking
- the Legislature to pass an act prohibiting
the sale of meat on the streets of the city,
between Reed strE et and Lehigh avenue,
..and east of Fortieth street, on motion of Mr.
Gray, was indefinitely postponed.
A resolution from Common Council di•
reeling the Board of Health to receive small
_pox patients from the Almshouse into the,
municipal hospital was agreed to.
A resolution of inquiry into the excessive
sward for damages in the taking of the
~ ,r ound at Landing avenue was passed.
Adjourned.
COMMON BRANCH
The Highway Committee reported resolu
rtions to pave Evergreen street, Twenty
sixth Ward, and Pearl street, Fourteenth
Ward. Passed.
The Committee on Poor, reported that
the small-pox at present exists among the
inmates of the almshouse. The population
aVerages 3,000. Last week there were
rtwenty-six cases there. This week there
are eighteen. These are all cared for in a
rtemporary building erected for the purpose,
but entirely insufficient for the wants and
comforts'of the patients. The report closed
with a. resolution that the Board of Health
be instructed to remove the patients to the
;municipal hospital. 'Agreed to.
The Comatitteenn Surveys, presented an
-ordinance for the - construction of culverts
--on Nineteenth areet,ni3d Hamilton street,
:Fifteenth Ward. Agreed to.
. Mr. Derbyshire offered an ordinance
locating the Taylor Hose as a, steamer.
Mr. Nichols atated that the, Committee of
Fire and Trusts had considered the matter,
-and decidednot only not to locate the Taylor
Hose as a steamer, but to locate no -more
companies , as--steam iorcing hose com
panies.
Mr. Palmer advocated the location, and
contended that the manufacturing interests,
of the Nineteenth - Ward demanded the
-establishment of a steamer in that neighbor
hood.
Mr. Stanton also.advocated the- location,
stating that the largest manufacturing firms
in the city have called -upon him, reoto
mending the immediftte passage ; of such an
order as that intfreiduced byAlr-tDerhy,shire.
The"bilt was defeated.""
Mr. Hancock offered a resolution to ap
points* comiiiithSe'oi five from each Cham
ber to inquire whether improper influences
baje not been used' upon' the fury lately
deNdins upon the price of the lands com
prised in the'new Fairmount 'Park property,
by patties interested in the awards of the
lands. - Agreed to.
A 4'6.i:dation passed requesting the." city
members of the Legislature to vote for the
repeal of.a bill giving the Receiver of Taxes
5 p cent, on unpaid taxes.
The resolution to change the name of
Broad street to Lincoln avenue came up.
Mr. Hetsel moved to indefinitely post
pone. Lost.
Mr. Helsel moved to amend by naming it
Johnson avenue. Lost.
The resolution then passed.
The Select Council ordinance changing
the position 'of the new court-house was
taken up.
Mr. Colladay's communication respecting•
the change was read. He offers to do the
extra work for $7,890.
Mr. Willets advocated the resolution.
The building as first planned would be
placed opposite Sansom street. To change
it will give completeness to the work. The
old plan would obstruct the central view
through the square.
Mr. Harper objected. He was oposed to
covering Independence Square with build
ings, and this one would not be a credit to
the city. The price for contract was too
low, and,the work could not be done for
that - price.
Mr. Miller also opposed the resolution.
Itsyassage will abnegate the first contract,
and instead of receiving a building for $35-
000, we will have to pay double that sum.
The, original plan is good enough. The
judges approved it, and why should we go
beyond the desire of the judges.
,Mr. Harper moved to postpone indefi
nitely. Agreed to.
The bill for the laying of rails by the Fair
mount and Delaware River Railway, was
passed, with the usual amendment that
the Company keep the streets in repair.
A resolution to appoint a Committee of
Conference on the Firemen's Appropriation
bill was agreed to.
Also, a resolution requesting the opinion
of the City Solicitor respecting the right
of the Controllers of public schools to build
public schools.
Also, a resolution requesting the Legisla
ture to equalize assessments. Adjourned.

HMI BMW/IG. March 'a.
SENATB.—The Committee on Vice and Immorality
retorted with a negative recommendation. the bill
allowing Passenger Railway Cars to run on Sunday,
and asked the adoption of a resolution declaring that
the laws regarding the first day ol the week, com
monly called Lord's day, be left unchanged.
After considerable aebate, the resolution was
amended by Mr. McConaughy so as to read that the

gretting his inability to be r reaent at the ceremonies
incident to the visit of the of the orphans of soldiers to
Harrisburg on the 16th of March.
Mr. Thomas mate a personal explanation. He had
stated in debate, on Wednesday evening, that in 1865,
whin the news of the victories had been received, the
Democratic side of the House had rot applauded.
The statement bad been questioned :and he now de
sired to substantiate it by a written statement of Re
publican members of 1665, and by an extract frog the
Harrisburg 2acuraph of the same year..
Mr. Pershing denied the charge on behalf of Demo
crats, so far as the item of the Telegraph we- concern
ed. The same paper had twice asserted that Demo
cratic members Intended to re , ist the last inaugura
tion of Gov. Curtin by force, and would have done
so, but for the presence of the military This charge
was utterly false, as was also one in reference to the
silence of the Democracy when news of victory was
announced.
iir.gatferthwalt then presented a written statement
of the Democratic members of 1865, denying that their
side of the House had remained silent when victories
were announced.
The t 4 peaker, in view of the personalities that had
been indillged in by sundry members, positively refused
to allow any further personal explanations, either by
Republicans r Democrats.
