Laws taken up and read.
Alderman G. r. BRowN of the sth who is well known
to be strong, substantial and fearless friend of licensing
the meat shops moved amendment of the first section
to that effect and accompanied his motion with able and
appropriate remarks
Alderman scoLEs of the l4th moved to lay the whole
ordinance upon the table, and offered resolution that the
charter election, and two different kinds tickets be
prepared for the people-pubc markets, and no meat
shops -"prvate markets, meat shops" He was OPP
posed to licensing the meat shops.
Alderman w. DopaE was altogether opposed to any
such laying of the ubect upon the table The people
have already expressed their opinions relative TO the
shops and they could do at the next election
Alderman BRows again advocated immediate action
upon this subject said he was ready now upon
IT, and have his conduct be pronounced
upon by M particular party but by the public at large
He would this subject discard all party feeling, and go
with what he considered public sentiment.

Then followed variety Of amendments, proposed by
different members of the Board. All the amendments Of

" ASHlN0TONs hpTH ".
The venerable Ex- President, J. Q. Adams,
gave large and interesting party at his
residence last evening. Many Of the most
distinguished public men in the city were
present, and among them Lord Ashburton,
the Ambassadors of the several Foreign
Governments represented in the city, Mr..
Clay, and several distinguished members Of
the two Houses of Congress. A large party
of ladies were also present, and the evening
passed off pleasantly, with music, dancing,
and social game Of cards. At one of the
card tables were Lord Ashburton, Mr.. Clay,
al. Bodiscoe, the Russian Minister, and Mr..
Crittenden-four very distinguished men,
Willing away their time very pleasantly, but
not very profitably, perhaps some will say.
1t was, however, but a social game of cards,
with nothing worth naming at stake.
The Secretary of State will give large
dinner party to-morrow,-Lord Ashburton
being the principal guest In the evening
the Post Master General will give the last Of
his monthly drawing rooms for the season.
Lord Ashburton has issued cards for IA
large dinner party on Tuesday of next week.
They are very simple, and in the following
form,-the cards being printed:
LORD ASHBURTON
REQUESTS the honor of the company OF
