CITY INTELJJGENCE

CITY INTELLIGENCE.
I'm Official Entertainment In accordance
with long established custom, the members of
the City Councils holding seats for the first time,
and known as "colts," gave an entertainment
on Monday evening, at Dunahue's Logan Hall.
The company, numbering about one hundred
sat down to the table at o'clock. The table
was literally crowded with flesh, foul, fish, ovs-
tiers, tearrpins, SC. &c., prepared in the very
best style by the worthy host, whose celebrity
in catering for the appetite, is too well estab-
lished to need more being said in reference to
the supper on this occasion; but if additional
proof were wanted, it might be found in the
heartiness with which it was partaken of by the
gentlemen present. There was general atten-
dance of the officers and members of both
branches of the Councils, and a number
of invited guests, among whom were the Hon.
Dabney S. Carr, U. S, Minister to Constantine
pie, Henry Snyder, Esq, City Collector, repre-
sentatives of the press and others. The supper
over, the cloth was removed, and then followed
a series of entertainments in the way of wines,
sweetmeats, sc. We shall not attempt to give
an account of the many good things said, sung
and done during the evening; but will simply
refer to the pleasant manner in which it passed
off-every person seemed to be at his ease,
eral hilarity and pleasantness of the occasion.
We may also state, as we do with pleasure,
that there was an entire absence of any poIit-
cal alusion during the whole evening The
company retired about 12 o'clock.

Hillen-st. Bridge. This bridge, which has
been for so long time in dlapdated condi-
ton, is now being repaired under the direction
of the City Commissioners. A new floor is
being laid, which will render it impossible for
horses and vehicles for the remainder of the
week.
Obst,ucting the Side-palkS. Although there
is an ordinance of the city which forbids mer-
chants and others from placing goods on the
pavements so as to prevent persons from walk
ing the streets with convenience, it would seem
that many are either not aware of its existence
or are determined to disregard it, During the |
last fortnight several merchants have been fined
for violation of this ordinance; and still there
are others who do not seem disposed to profit |
by the example,
Correction In the article headed sFalse
Measure, in yesterdays Clipper, the name was
