Messrs. Mack and Weasner opposed 1 reference, because the scheme was chimerl cal, and because the Ohio River water was the best that could be obtained. Mr. Hollister said that he wanted to get water elsewhere. The Ohio River water was the most unhealthy in the world. Its equal in this respect can not be found between the equator and the poles. Mr. Moore had used the Ohio water for forty years, and in all sickly seasons it was taken in preference to any other. When tbe cholera was in this city, it affected those who drank river water hiss than those who were supplied from wells and cisterns. The question was then taken on the refer ence, and it was lost. Mr. Jxobie cresentea a petition irora a large number of citizens of tho Sixth Ward, asking tbe establishment of a steam fire engine in that ward. Mr. Walker moved to amend by requiring some of the old engines, which are too ho avv to be run, to be stationed in the ward, with several thousand feet of hose each. The amendment was lost, and the original petition was filed, after a lono; discussion. A communication was received from John Horton, Commissioner of the Western Dis ttict, relative to the grading of Seventh street, between Freeman and Cutter. He says that be notified the Railroad Company, but as it did not respond, he advertised, and fniind that no contractor would do the work for less than $000 or $800 more than it usually charced for such work, inasmuch as Council would require to collect their pay of , : s by the of to this into dis covered, the -cape., of lick break ing hats Wasen, Baldwin, Mrs. A., at in and there the the and 1 Dr. that County The the com uum Millcroek, that --- the the . 1. would require 10 couecs ineir mj or Railroad Company.

Ilirst and Froser, to whom was referred tbe petition of certain property holders on East Third-street, reported that tbe Pendleton Street-railroad Company had not, in many respects, comdied with the or dinance of July 1, 1859. In some places they have cut down below the grade of the street, and in other. places have laid the track above it. ...... Tbe coromittee.at their first meeting, passed the following resolution: ' ., ' -Jitiolved: That the City Civil Engineer notify the Pendleton and fifth-street Rail- rnari ilnmnanv to conform to the crade in laying their tracks on Martin nnd East Third-streets; or in all cases where they vary from said grade, they must first yet the con sent of the property-holders i n each side, put tbe street in good repair, and hold the city Hnmplem from anv damaze that may arise from chaneinir the trade. In all other re spects to conform to the directions of the City Civil Engineer, as the ordinance directs. 'The Engineer reports to the Committee that he has notified eaid Railroad Company,' and they have failed to comply with the or iiinince but have nursued their own course, therefore the Committee recommend the .iinnimn nf the ffitlnwinrr resolutions: i' Hnintri 'i tint ma resolution imnscu the Special Committee to whom was referred the communication of property-holders Martin-street, be and the same Is hereby .nr,4ar1 Kv thin Ttnnrrf.

The plaintiffs made ap plication to this Court to condemn certain property belonging to the defendants, sixty feet wide and 214 'A feet in length. The Jury should estimate, the absolute value of the property, not only of tho real estate, but of the fixtures, taking into con sideration only tbe damages that wore natural, proximate and immediate, and not those that were remote and contingent. Private property could not be taken for public use, or for the use of this corporation without full compensation.

One of the most busy of the tribes was travel ing in the cars not long ago, and exercising his talent iu a manner at once amusing and mischievous. "Hallo!" cries Mr. Meddler, to a dtcrcpid old gentleman, just as tho train was leaving a wuy-utation, " Wake up, and step lively I This is the place where you want to get out." The old man had barely time to put his tottering legs on the platform of the depot, when the train was ngain in mntinn. 'Good Gracious!" exclaimed Mr. Meddler, on returning to his seat wbicu was rext the one which the old gentleman had occupied "Good gracious! the old fellow has gone ana ich ui carpet nag 1 m no kindly threw it out of the window.

" Yon had better have minded your own business," said the young man, rathe sharply. "That old gentleman was going Middlebury, to see a dying son. who will now be dead and buried, probably, before father can get there. That's one of the of your officious intermeddling with things that don't concern you. And that carpet bag is my carpet bag, and has got wedding suit in it.
