Communication was read from Joseph MoGuinnis asking to be refunded the sum of 810, whioh had been deposited with Chief of Police, as security for ap? pearance of Edward McGuinnis before the Mayor, as prisoner had answered the ohargo. The. Mayor and Chief of Police ex? plained that E. MoGuinniB had boen Hued for an offence committed some time before, and had paid tho money in ns a fine, and that it was not put on de? posit for his appearance. Alderman Thompson moved to in voBtigate the matter, which was lost. Motion, by Alderman Carroll, to lay on table, was carried. Communication from the policemen asking for an increase of pay. Alderman Cooper thought the commu? nication deserved consideration of thc Council. Alderman Griffia thought something should be done to enable the policemei to proonre decent clothing-they wen looking very shabby. Alderman Cooper thought some o them wore out their clothes sleeping oi the street. He had to Bend ono to thi guard house lately while drinking Another was so sound asleep on th street that he had to call assistance ti wake him up. On motion, by Alderman Thompson petition was referred to Committee oi Ways und Means. A communication was received fror the Vigilant Fire Eugine Company askiug to have their house removed t tho front on Assembly street. Alderman Wilder thought that as soo as the new house of tho Hook an Ladder Company was built, the preset house occupied by them could t turned over to the Vigilant Fire Engin Company, and thut uo action be take on tho petition. Oa motion of Alderman Carrol further consideration was deferred uut next regular meeting.

A communication from Theo. Boh was received, preferring charges agai Policeman Richard Smith, for be asleep on his post. Alderman Wilder thought tho oond of tho police deserved invostiguti complaints wero constant; they rein to be controlled; would threaten officers. He had observed them enga for hours at a time iu political meuti without authority. The truth is 1 they wonld tuko charge of the cit something was not done to subordii them to authority. It was a grow evil which the citizens woro calling lc ly upon this Council to redress. Alderman Griffin asked if it was that Policeman Nott told the Chief, w bespoke to him about somodulinquei that he could take his stick aud belt do as ho pleased with it. Capt. Jackson replied that ho had i so but once. Alderman Wilder wished to kno' Policeman Nott had permission from Mayor or Chief to attend tho reconl litical mooting duriug hours of duty Lieut. Black stated that ho bad g permission to the policeman on the c sion roferred to, but that ho did sc cause to refuse wonld be to subject self to all kinds of abuso from him. Alderman" Carroll thought that officers of tho police should have control of the force without interf? r and it would work a wholesome ch in their conduct. He believed thu policeman. should be retained ir force who refused to obey orders. Alderman Wilder moved to sum? the parties to oom plaint before Co at next r.?gular meeting. Adopted. Tho Clerk submitted, as per resoli of Mayor ut last meeting, a stnteme returns made bj merchants of Cohn of amount of business done by t taken from tho license book.

The Mayor stated that his object in submitting this matter was to show to the Counoil what amounts were returned by those merchants for lioenso tax. Ho be? lieved that many of these returns were not a correct statement of their sales. He had been informed by a clerk of one of these merohants that he, the clerk, had sold more than the whole amount returned for the establishment. Ht thought the matter should be looked into.

AN iNQCismvB YANKEE.-We heard a friend tell the following incident, the other day, with not a little zeal, and to the amusement of a good many by-stantl ors: Jumping into an old-fashioned stage conch, last month, in company with nine others to jostle over ten miles of unfinished road between Pittsburg add Philadelphia, I was very much amused with the following characteristic dialogue between a regular question-asking "Deoun Easter," and a high-heeled Southerner. We were scarcely Beatod before our Yankee began: "Traveling East, I expect?" "Yes, sir." "Goin* to Philadelphia, I reckon?" "No, sir." "Oh, ah I to New York, maybe?" "Yes, sir." "Never been there before, I would not wonder?" "No, sir, never." "New York is a wonderful place." "Such is my impression, sir." "Got lettors, I expect?" "Yes, sir; I am provided with letters of introduction." "Wouldn't mind showin' you around myself a spell, if yon wanted." "I thank you, sir; but I shall not re? quire- your assistance." This last remark of the polite but re? served stranger was a "poser," and the inquisitor fell back a moment to take breath and change his tactics. The half suppressed smile upon the faces of the other passengers soon aroused the Yan? kee to still further exertions; and then summoning up more resolution, he be? gan again: "Stranger, perhaps you are not aware how almighty hard it is for a Yankee to control his curiosity. You'll please ex? cuse me, but I really would like to know your name and residence, and the busi? ness you follow. I expect you ain't ashamed of'em; BO now won't you just oblige me?" Tbis appeal brought out our Southern friend, who, rising up to the extremest height allowed by the coach, and throw? ing back his shoulders, replied: "My name is Gen. Andrew Washing? ton. I reside in the State of Missis? sippi. I am a gentleman of leisure, and, I am glad to bo able to say, of pretty ex? tensive means. I have heard much of New York, and I am now on my way to see it; and if I like it as well as I expect, I intend to-buy it." -. ? MARK TWAIN'S REVOLVERS.-I was armed to the teeth with a pitiful little Smith & Wesson's seven-shooter, which carried a ball like a homeopathic pill, aud it took the whole seven to make a dose for an adult. But I thought it was grand. It appears to be a dangerous weapon. It only had one fault-you oonld not hit anything with it. One of ?our "conductors" practiced awhile on a I cow with it, and as long as abo stood still and behaved herself, sh o was safe; but as soon as she went to moving about and he got to shooting at other things, abe loame to grief. The seoretary had a small-sized Colt's revolver strapped around for protection against the In? dians, and to gnard against accidents he carried it uncapped. Mr. George Bernis was dismally formidable. George Bernis was our fellow-traveler. We had never seen bim before. He wore in his belt an original "Allen" revolver, such as irreverent people oalled a "pepper-box." Simply drawing tho trigger back cocked and fired the pistol. As tho trigger carno back, tho hammer would begin to rise and the barrel turn over, and pre sentry down would drop the hammer, and away would speed the ball. To aim along tho turning barrel, and hit the thing aimed at, was a feat which was probably novor done with au "Allen" in the world. But George's was a reliable weapon, nevertheless, beoause, ns one of the stage-drivers afterwards said, "If sba didu't get what she went after, she would fetch something else." And sc she did. She went after the douce of spades nailed against a tree, once, and fetched a mule stuuding about thirty yards to the left of it. Bomis did not want the mule; but tho ownor carno out with a double-bar? reled shot gun and persuaded him to buy it anyhow. It was a cheerful wea? pon-tho "Allen." Sometimes all its six barrels would go oil ut ouco, and there was no safety in all tho region round about lt, but behind it. When, as Oakes Ames records, tho American Credit Mobilier made u distri? bution of bribos to tho followiug amounts among tho following members of Congress, u certain General John A. Dix, we believe, was President of tho Union Pacific Road, in behalf of which the said bribes were distributed: Blaine, of Maine, $3,000; Patterson, of New Hampshire, 3.000; Wilson, of Massa- j chusetts, 2,000; Painter, (Republican,) i for (Jaigloy, 3,000; S. Colfax, Speaker, 2,000; Scofield and Kelley, Pa., (each) j 2.000; Eliot, Massachusetts, 3,000; Dawes, Massachusetts, 2,000; Fowler, Teuuoasee, 2,000; Boutwell, Massa? chusetts, 2,000; Bingham and Garfield, Ohio, (each,) 2,000. Endorsed: Oakes Ames, January 30, 18C8. If the same General John A. Dix is now running as a candidate for Governor in the State of New York, may ho not be able to throw sorao light on this matter? No scandal so black and damning stains our legislative history. What hus Generul Dix to say about it? If Blaine and Boutwell speak not, will be thoreforo forbear?-Nets York World. MORTALITY.-It is with sinc?re regret that we chronicle the deaths of ll. E. Bruce, Mrs. Calvin Pressloy, R. N. Graves, Jr., and Mrs. Pinkuey Huins, of the vicinity of L-owndesviile. These deaths occurred during last week. f Abbeville. Medium, A MOTHER KIDNAPS HEH CHILD.-A New York despatch of Saturday states tbat it is DOW ascertained that the parties who carried off the child of Gen. Vielle, from the shores of Lake Mahopao, were agents of Mrs. Vielle, mother of the child, who returned from Europe for that purpose. Mrs. Vielle accompanied the kidnapping party to the residence of General Vielle, and securing her ohild, refused to give it up, except with her life. She and her daughter left for Eu? rope on Saturday. " COME-ALONGS."-In some of the Westert! cities, the police are providing themselves with little steel chains, about a foot long, provided with a bar at each end, which are known as "come-alongs," and are to be used in place of hand-ouffs. The chain can be slipped over a min's wrists, both bars caught up and a twist made, in less time than the hand-cuffs can be pulled out. Such a thing as pall? ing the hand out is an impossibility. WHAT UNSPEAKAULE BELIEF is afforded to the burning and throbbing ileab by a single application of that unequaled balsam for Luman or brute suffering, MEXICAN MUSTANG LINIMENT. The tormenting and sleep-de strobing pains of rheumatism, gout and neu? ralgia, aro completely banished by its use; stiffness of tho joints and painful swellings, quickly yield to HB emollient influence; it hoalB bruises, cuts, scaldB, etc., with aato nighing rapidity. For strains, spring halt, scratch en, Baddie, collar and harneen galls, as welt as the more serious external maladies of the horse, it is a swift and thorough remedy. SYMPTOMS OF LIVEB COMPLAINT AND OF SOME OF TUE DISEASES PRODUCED DY IT.-A sallow or yellow color of skin, or yellowish brown spots on tho face and other parts of the body; dnll nsBS and droweinesB witb frequent headache; dizziness, bitter or bad taste ia mouth; dry? ness of throat and iuternal heat; palpitation; iu many cases a dry, teasing cough, with soro throat; uustoady appetite, a raising of food, and a ohoking sensation in throat; dis? tress, heaviness, or bloated or full feeling about stomach and sides: pain in sides, back or breast, and about shoulders; colic pain and soreness through bowelB, with heat; con? stipation, alternating with frequent attacks of diarrhoa; pilos, flatulence, nervousness, cnldnoss of extremities; ruin of blood to head, with symptoms of apoplexy, numbness of limbs, especially at night; cold chills, alter? nating with hot flashes, kidney and urinary difficulties; female weakness and irregulari? ties, with dallnesB, low spirits, unsociability and gloomy forebodings. Only a few of the r.bovo symptoms are likely to be present iu any caao at one time.
