He immediately went down the stairs, passed the steward's room, calling fire all the way,and found the flames breaking through th? door of dining room No. 1. He then turned and went back to the steeple, crying fire and aJarrning the house. In the steeple he struck the bell twelve times and being driven down by the -smoke despended again.

JNO. H. HONOUR, Chairman. Bre-,fouoWing report of the City Attorney was reaa^wd^?ie^ consideration of the same laid over . J?^BonGrab?'the Mayor and Aldermen : OsmpvEUEN : lu the year 1848 Council laid a tax upon Bernie dividends. Two citizens, Messrs. Ed? ward choring and William Birnie, in the sama year refused to pay, and filed a suggestion for prohibi? tion, on - the ground that the tax was illegal. The ??je ya* heard first by the Law Court of Appeals, shu* Ttltemrd* i>y- ihd Oontt of timm,? ? md In January, 1852, it was decided that the tax on divi? dends vfoa illegal; because tho Banka had paid a b .urns to the State, in consideration of which they were by their charter exempted from all taxation, whether of the State or of tho city. On the 27th January, 1852, Mr. John C. Eurck meyer applied by petition to Council to be refund? ed tho amount which he had paid, under protest, for taxes on dividends during four years. The pe? tition was roferred to the Committee of Ways and Means, with authority to confer with tho City At? torney. On the 10th Februar)', 1852, the Committee made their report, and as * it is based almost entirely upon legal considerations, 1 have no doubt it was mode upon conference with mo, and nndor my ad? vice. I enclose a copy of this report. Tho report states that the taxes paid on divi? dends, during tho four years last past, amounted to a very largo sum of money. TL -.it in a few cases thoy had been paid under what was called a pro? test. That no protest had been made to the City Council, nor had there neon any coercion of legal process, and that there was much variance in the forms of the protests. Tho ?eport concludes with recommending that the prayer ot tho petitioners be not granted, and that tho parties be left to their legal remedies, should they see fit to pursue them. The report was adopted by Council, and there has been no other action of Council thereon, ex? cept the reference to me upon Mr. Bnrckmeyer's recent petition. In the case of Robinson vs. the City Council (2 Rich., p. 318) it was held that if one voluntarily, with a knowledge of all the facts, paid a tax which was afterwards declared to be illegal, it could not be recovered back. It was a voluntary payment, not under coercion of legal process, and was a waiver of all legal exception. In delivering the opinion of the Court, Judge Butler says: "It would be most mischievous to open such transactions as these, after money has been expended upon the assumption that it was lawfully acquired, and par? ticularly after the payment of it may have been acquiesced in, during nearly the whole period of the statute of limitations." It is my opinion, however, that if a tax be paid by one under a distinct protest, on the ground of illegality, while the question is being judicially tested by others, it may be recovered back, if the tax be declared illegal. In the case of thia tax some thirty thousand dollars had been paid into the Treasury and disbursed in public expenditures. As appears by the report, some had protested and some had not; some had pro? tested in writing and some verbally; some on one ground and some on another. Under these cir? cumstances, it was deemed advisable to leave the parties to their legal remedies, if they thought proper to resort to them, and so make no dis? crimination between tho many citizens, all of whom had been paying tins tax during the period of four years. Thus Council would refund in all cases where the courts thought the parties res? pectively entitled to recover. The returns of that day are lost, and it cannot now be ascertained in what form Mr. Burckmyor protested. But there can be no doubt that he did protest, and, in all probability, in as decided a form aa any. The object of the report was to let the Court determine what was in each case a sufficient 8retest, and so lay down the rule or rules by which bundi should be governed in this as well as in similar cases. A demand like this is barred in four years if there be no suit, and no proof of promise or acknowledgment. The most favorable view of the protestants is that the statute began to run from the time that the tax is declared illegal. Perhaps the more correct le ?al view is that it began to run from the time of payment. It does not appear that Mr. Burckmever commenced suit before April, J.866. The taxes were paid in 1848,1849,1850 and 1851, and the tax was declared illegal in 1852. 'When, therefore, this matter came before me again, after this long lapse of time, in the shape of a writ, I felt it my duty to plead the statute ot limitations on behalf of Council. It is my duty to advise them, and, in case of emt, to toke in their behalf all legal defences. If they think proper to waive them, or any of them, under particular cir? cumstances, they may so direct. I have no doubt Mr. Burckmeyer did apply to the Mayor and hold conversations with him, but I do not find that there was any writ sued ont prior to 1866, nor any application to Council since than* report inl852,"n?? auy promise or acknowledg? ment of the claim on their part. In other words, I do not see anything to take the caso out of the statute, if it be insisted.on. I have endeavored to state, as correctly as J pan ascertain them, the facts of this case, and my views of tho law touching it. It is in the option of Conned to say whether the plea of the statute shall he urged or waived. With respect, W.D.PORTER, City Attorney. BKPOBT OF TOE COMMITTEE OF WAYS AXT) MEANS, , MADE AT A REGULAR MEETLNU OF COUNCIL, HELD ON 24TH FKBBUAB?, 1852. The Committee of Ways and Means, to wiiom was referred the petitions of John C. Burokmyer and Le wi? Jor voy, agent for Miss Rutledge, pray? ing for a release of tax paid upon dividends on Bank Stock, and to confer with the City Attorney thereon, beg leave to report, (hat they have consi? dered the matter referred, and' find that taxes upon Bank dividends have bison paul to tho amount of $33,000, during a period OZ four y?)ara, and that, in a few cases, thoy have been paid un? der what bas been called a protest upon the re? turn, but in tho vost majority of cases without any Buch objection. In no case was any protest made to the City Conned, nor did Council pass any resolution that the taxes should be returned if found to be i Ilegal. These protests vary in form. In one case the objection is put on the-ground (that the tax is "unequal and oppressive, in comparison with other subjects of taxation, (not thal it is illegal), and in others it takes a more general sbapo, with? out any specification of reason or ground what? ever "J ,: . ' ' ' .'*.~?f~\\' ,"! ' , The Committee aro advised that it is extremely doubtful whether the Bums^ujd csn'be recovered back in any of these coses, inasmuch as they were not paid under coercion of any legal. process, and that this view is sustained by the -principle of the decision in Robinson vs. the City Council, where lt was held that non-residents of the city who had Said a higher price for badges than residents, u?? eras ordinance which waa declared to be illegal, j could not recover back the amounts so paid. This tax vas laid in good faith by, the City Council, ?nd . the money thus collocted bas been expended for pu bbc purposes, upon- tho m sumption that it wan lawfully acquired. Those who did not resist the tax have con tribu? ted to the error; and to refund this large amount now would work great injustice to those who are not in default, inasmuch as it would throw the burden upon different persona and in different proportions from what it would have fallen at the tune. For these reasons the Committee recommend that the prayer of the petitioner, be not granted, and that the parties be left to their legal reme bes, should they see fit to prosecute them. . [Slgiedj .

That when a similar application from Mr. John G. Itgen, they did recommend that the petition be ! granted, and be allowed to erect a wooden building I on his lot, on the north side of Trodd street. That they did so from the impression, derived from the reading of the act of 1856, in relation to wooden buildings. That upon further consideration, and after refer? ence with the City attorney, they have come to the conclusion that their first construction was erro? neous, and that the intention of the legislature to confine the erection of wooden buildings to the west of a line running from South Bay, wost of Legare street, as far as Trodd street, where Legare street terminates, thence up Tradd street to Savage, and west of that street as far as Broad, where that stroet terminates, thence up Broad street to Franklin, and then west of that street as far as Magazine Bareet, where Franklin street ter? minates, and thence along Magazine street to Wilson street, and west of that street to Boaufain street, Ac. There is some vagueness in the phraseology of the act, but your committee arc now satisfied, that the line last indicated is the one intended by the act. In other words tho m caning is that if tho lot bo on the square, bounded by Legare street, it must be on the west of Legare strcot, if it bo on the square bounded by Savage street, it must be weat of that street, and if it bc ou the square or squares, hounded by Franklin street, it must be weet of that street, Ac. The lot in this case is on the square bounded by Savage street, and is not west of that street. They therefore recommend tbot the petition bo not granted. JOHN H. STEINMEYER. JAMES P. EARLE. Adopted.

Alderman Steinmeyer gave not ice of a Bill to al? ter and amend an ordinance, to fix the terms and prices of licenses for retailing spirituous liquors, ratified 16th January, 18C6, and asked that the notice bo considered the first reading of tho Bill, which waB granted. Alderman Pringle reported as having been en? grossed by tho Clerk, an ordinance to regulate the storage ot petroleum, its products, and other in? flammable oils. The ordinance waa ratified in due form. Alderman Gerdts brou-ht to the attention of the Mayor the bad condition of the side walks on East Bay street, and stated that ho had been call? ed upon by several tax payers and merchants do? ing business on said street to see whether Council would have the evil remedied. Alderman O'Neill arose and made the same state? ment, and moved that the Mayor be instructed to carry out the resolution adopted on the 12th of j March last, and, if necessary to discharge all extra carts until the work is finished. The resolution referred to reads as follows : "That the sidewalks on west and east side of East Bay, from Broad street to as far as the street has been paved toward Market street, be repaired as Boon aa the condition of the Treasury will admit of I it." The Mayor stated that at present the Treasury was not in a condition to admit of it, and that there was still a balance due the contractor for paving East Bay. : Alderman Olney moved to lay the whole matter over to the next regular meeting.

UNION COUNTY.-We regret to learn that it is probable that some of tho farmers of Union County, will have to stop working their crop? for ute want of corn for their families and horses.
