o'clock. The Mayor announced the Hist,
business in older lb bo the reception and
examination of pupers purporting to he
returns of the election. Thc returns
wmc then read separately, and the man
ner in which they were received explain
ed. The ballot-boxes were also exam
ined and their marks noted. The. ex
aminations evinced much irregularity,
arising from ignorance or carelessness
ol' Managers, in the transmittal of their
I returns, and caused considerable discus
sion among the Hoard and counsel. Tho
testimony'of several Managers, in refer
ence to their operations at thc poils, &u.,
was Inkon, eliciting no'bing specially
important, after which lue Hoard ad
