Present-the Mayor, Aldermen Potter, Ged? dings, Collina, T. J. Mackey, E. W. M. Mackey, Barrow. Cuouingi am, Greene, Holloway (col oied.) McKinlay (colored,) Thorne (colored,) Small (colored,) Howard (colored) Brown (col ore J,) L. F. Wall (colored,) E. P. Wall (color? ed,) and Hampton (colored.) A quorum being present tte Mayor announc? ed that tho meeting waa open for business, and called for a report from the com m it tee appoint? ed to prepare a j a ry list. The derk read the report stating that a list had -been made on the basis of one juror to twenty voters. They calculated 5671 colored eui 6183 white Totere, making 388 c olored and 356 white jurors. They also recommended that the report be engrossed and posted in some public place for ten days and then sub? jected to the supervision of Council. They recommended the Courthouse and Postoffice. On motion of Alderman McKinlay, the report was adopted. Alderman McKinlay (oolored) mored that un? til otherwise ordered the iulea that governed the City Council heretofore be observed. Adopted. Alderman McKinlay (.colored) mored that as the majority of the board were new members, the roles of the City Council be read for their benefit The rules were then ordered to be read by the Clerk. Alderman Barrow said that there wai a great deal of business before them. They were, moat of them, new and raw Lands, and mast feel their way, and moat do so aa a board. He mored therefore that the meetings be held weekly until each business as was necessary was dispatched, and they could then resume the semi-monthly meetings. He said it was important that they should obtain the thor? ough control of the oity. Work was now being done, and there was no one to. superintend or to be responsible. Alderman Collins, in reply, said the Council had jost adopted the roles of the former Coon eil specifying the time for meetings, and the changs waa. somewhat sadden. He trusted the motion would not prevail. It was not se? conded, and railed. Alderman McKinlay (oolored) moved that the Mayor appoint a oommittee of three to prepare a list of the unfinished business of the former Council, and present the same as early as practicable. The Mayor appointed Aldermen McKinlay, (colored.) Putter, and Small, (colored.) Alderman E. W. M. Mackey mored that Coun? cil do KO into an election for city officors on the 18th instant, and that the Clerk do give public notice of the same through tho city journals. Alderman Collins said that- be thought that the first step should be the nomination of com? mittees, who would consider the subject and report. Alderman McKinlay (oolored) opposed the resolution as premature, and tending to dolay matters. He thought the offices should be de? clared vacant previous to that notification and thus avoid contusion. Alderman T. J. Mackey said it was timely and jost. The present Council had been elect, ed orer one hundred and eighty days ago, bot their right was held in abeyance, and in the interim a ngid proscription waa practiced on erery one who had voted for their ticket. About sixteen hundred able-bodied men were thus prevented from obtaining woik and were still idle. Their rotes won the election. They were the true constituents ol Council, and any meas? ure was welcome that woold shorten the tenore of-office of the present incumbents. There was a strong and influential party formed who were actively working to delay jost snob action as proposed by the resolution. lt was the old story, the cash box vs. the ballot box. He truste! the election woold not be deferred, as the delay woold only give the opposition rtrength. Alderman Collins said that he did not wish io reveal anything that had transpired in cao mg, bot woold ooly allude to what was well mown,' and hinted if the cap fitted, some would ihow the cloven foot. ? A majority, or perhaps I? large \ minority of the board thought that hey. contd -retain their positions and yet told fat city offices. He was proceeding to ihow the im possibility of this, when called to a ?int of order, by Alderman T. J. Mackey, the liaenssion being foreign to the subject. The point was not sustained and Alderman 3olliu8 said that he only accepted the position o keep a worse man ont. He wanted no office, rhile his opponent, like other great men, ranted to provide for his whole family. Alderman E. W< M. Mackey said that it was olly tune to aot on this- subject, and that he atended to vote only for those who voted for dm. He called for the ayes and noes. Alderman Geddioga aaked if the officers had wen declared vacant, for the p resent discus ion reminded bim of a resolotion adopted io . certain country town where it was deter? mined, first, to erect a new jail; second, that he old jail stand until the new one be built; hird, that the new jail be built from the naterial? of tbc old one: Alderman? r. J. Mackey, in reply, stated that he reference to the jail was probably induced >y (he Alderman's association with these city officers. Alderman Geddings said that the city offices 1 rere held by diff?rent tenores, and that no ac? ion of Council could declare them all' vacant. After some fuit her discussion, the call for he yeas and naya waa renewod, and the vote ?eing taken only three yeas were recorded- : Alderman T. J. and E. W. M. Mackey (white,) ind Small (colored,) and the mo?o?Vas lost. . The Mayor read a communication from the ?ton. W. D. Porter, resigning his position as ' Jity Attorney. On motion, tbe resignation sas accepted. Alderman Wall (colored,) moved to adjourn, i ind Alderman Barrow request ed him to with- 1 Ira w the motion, as he wished to hiing some natters of importance before Council. Ref.T- j ring to hie watch, Alderman Wall said it WJS :oo late for any more business. Alderman Barrow replied th it they were not working on time, but for tho good of thc whole communi? ty. Aldeiman Potter responded with a loud Amen ! The motion was carried and Council adjourn Bd, subject to the special call of thc Mayor.
