?nittctr met this morning at 11 o'ciu. k, when (lakes Am? -
was recalled. The Chairmau salil be found, by referring
ta the (?titnates of the eti_,ii??i, that In addithui M ? ? :
miles th? ie were 46 miles, at li'f.000 per mile, which wen?
, haigi-al up to the liiioti Pin ill? Ilailroad, and paid iimbi
tin (lakes Ames contract. The witness having been
askeil whither he knew h?> w thai I ,pl" iuJ tt, be douo
n ]?..'<1 that he di?l nut.
C-UOOaa against oov. mi.
Oas. Piocum aaM fea aow b* tht papara that ?Oar.-Ms
had ?It iiied the truth of at rtam evidence asaflectiug l.im
before till? fomroUtee ; Lo tbougbt linv, l?n shoubl In
sent for, and a summons issued for hnn and Messrs. Bar?
low and Cisco, in view Of the fact that evidence ?neu
hete n mam? un? ont rail ?< t???l. The Chairman remarked
that he had air?ady caused Mr. Cisco to he summoned.
After some conv?rsation, Ihn Committee re?iu?sta?l
Messrs Hlo? um and Snann to inquire and report at Ibeir
earliest convenience what lawa may eilst on the ?nhject
as to atinimoiiin, the Governor of a State to appear be?
fore investipBtll!_ committee?.
In reply to quettiont asVed by Oea, .?locum, the
witness said the salary of the IT? soient of the Union
raelflc liailrond v ??> ts.iaa., he could not tell how it was
paid; bis impression was that Oen. Iilx waa a stock
bolder and held 600 abate?; lu; did not know how Dix
came by tho stock; heard of a letter written by Dix,
demanding |?n,w>o from tho Company, prepared by bit
son-in-law'; be understood the Company paid the money
to get rid of the claim or threat; witnesswsa not a
?hi? ctot at that tima, bnt obtained bis information from
d.retHirs; witnest wat tbe largest stockholder, and of
course must bare known of the payment; the ?hack
Maaearai from Dix was aat worth more than H n,r
???nt ; there wat no sale for :t st the time.
In suswer to ?fien, ?locum, tbe witness said the 30
shares of (Y?'?lit Mobilier given to Mr. Painter was on
h- owaii liidivhlual account; Painter paid fur them;

'I he following is tin? minority report of Mc?srs
(ipdyke and Hlooniciithal :
'th.- iimlt-i?i^iied respflctiully disnent to th? report of
fhe Cotnmii te.? of this House on llie Affairs of Cities upon
the bill i. f, n.ii to tuera, entitled, as now amended, " An
act to IBMlMSto- the local government of the City of
New York." The malu rea?ous for tuch dissent are ?suc?
cinctly as follow?:
THE ArrO!>TI!40 rOWF.R llISrlACED.
One objection we tnnke to the charter propos?-?! by Ihe
Commit!?'? for the City of New-York, and oue which
alone woiii.i have l'ompelled distent from their rcixnt,
will be found in section 2? of the bill. While this sec
lion proviiJi? that in the flrnt instance the Mayor shall
nominate to the Hoard of Aldermen the names of per?
sons for tho hr-adi of department*., yet it provides that if
the Aldermen d?> not confirm such nominations within
the period of a few weeks, then the Mayor ahall goiuto
?Joint rim-putl'in with the Boaial of Aldermen, und that
the heads of departments shall be appointed by a ma?
jority vote in such Joint convention. A tvro
in legiaiutloi. ?ill perceive that tin. hccM??! sub
stsDtially be,tow. upou the Aldermen the whole power
of appointment, and that the Mayor has ouly
the ??.-nil,;.,-),,, of ?nch power. This prorinloti is an
omlnoui?, unprecedented, and in fact revolutionary ono
lu its < liaractf-r. It is subversive of all knows methods,
and can And no sanction from experience, from public
need, or from ?eason. It belittles the diitnlfled office of
Mayor of a **re..i municipality. It mingles tho execu?
tive power with tho led ?dative, in defiance of tho tescli
Ing ol all experience, aud tho radical principles of free
.-..???Him. nt everywhere. It abolishes a republican
form of ?.ov.roment to aet np an ohirarchy. No one will
pretend to defend tho scheme in point of principle. If
other motives Lave suggested its adoption, they are
not such a* can claim the support of a wise and far
sighted statesmanship. Temporary expediency ts an
argument which often brings strong temptations, in
deed adepartuie from recognized methods and from
admitted principle- But history, in this State as well
as elsewhere, has taught Legislatures ths danger of
yielding l? ?,i0? temptations.

It-.ill thus be s?-?rii that the Mayo? Is ?tripped of .

tbe best atatement of objections to tbe whole theory
the proposed charter. |If experience In municipal go
? rum? nt in this country and K trope has taught au
thing it is that the executive ?power should bo ?once
trailed in one ln?tivt?liril, ami this iiower should be bal

single officer can be held to a rigid accountability by ti
people, and tin? freaweaep of oar ?lectionsaffords amp
opportunity for .-u<?ii a prompt reward or such a prom]
rebuke of this officer M be may merit. It is also trt
thai our municipal experience has taught the aaaaaO
of clothing the local legislative boards with ample po?
ers; thus only ?-an membership in such boards tie ma?
worthy "f th?? ambition of tho b?-st men In the comni

Th?-Charter now proposed utterly Ifrnores thlscardin:
principle. It provides for eleven independent eiecutivi
for the several administrative bureau?. It attempt? t

tin? ability of the people to elect altnistworthy Board ?
Aidfiiiif u by ?m mg to this board the important powt
of appointment, but fails to give them the usual powci
of the office. To detect any wrong working of the con

Justice lull. Mr. Katon of New York ailvo.ated the bill
In a long argument (of win? h the substance i? gtvag ??'-?
where). Judge Edmunds, who apj>eared for :he police
Justices, said that ibe facts detailesl by Mi. i:aton were
md new. The police system of New-York, fea -aid. had
greatly improved during the las! :>0 vears, darlag ?h,, <i
time he had been intimately actpiaiutcd with the admin?
istration of criminal justice.
He ?lefemled the elective judiciary system generall*.

present justicci, and because tbe gentlemen here Jegis
laied too much lor New Y'ork ?atv.iind were generally
greatly imposed on by the men who assumed to speak
for New-York City. Judge Kdmunds theu argued that
tbe Constitution rt??iuired that the police justices must

spoke i'g.iiuit the constitutionality of the proposed
measure, conten,ling that tbe police magistrates were
both allstiK't judges and justices ot the peace, and must
therefore, under tbe Constitution, be elected by tb? peu
pie. He also criticised at length tbe phraseology or
Uiebill. ? i
