City Council.

A called meeting Of the City Council was held
yesterday to consider what action the city author
ties would take in relation to the rebuilding of the
Court House
Messrs. Andrew Ewing and Neil S. Brown ap-
peared on behalf of the committee of the county
court and at the request of the Mayor stated their
proposition to the Board, which was for the city
to remove the Market House from the public square,
and then join with the county in erecting hand
some and commodous edifce in the centre of the
Square, which should afford accommodations for the
various county and city Offices, and also a large
Town Hall and Assembly Room, suitable for con-
vening large audiences. The building to be sur
rounded by enclosure planted with trees leaving
ample room on every side to accommodate vehicles
and the business of the Square.
Aid. Ewing offered resolution acceding to the
proposition and raising a COMMITTEES TO determine
the details and contract with the county for carry
ing out the same.
The resolution was opposed by several members
who thought it committing the Board too ds-
cdedly before the details of the plan we're matured,
whereupOn,
AID. Morgan offered a resolution ia lieu, conced-
lag the removal of the Market House, and raising a
committee to consider the details Of the plan aud
report to the Board.
Aid. Glenn opposed the whole proposition as one
intended to divert business from the Square to other
portions Of the city he satisfied this was the
Interior ohjec; in view from the way he had been
approached by gentlemen from the southern por-
ton Of the city.
After some further discuss ion, the resolution was
lost, by ayes T. noes I.
Aid. Morgan then offered the following resolution
as a compromise, which was adopted, ayes IL,

ded il can be done upon such terms, in connection

the County Court OF Davidson county, upon plan
for the rebuilding Of the Court House and the re-
moval Of the Market House from the Public Square,
and that the plan they may agree upon be returned
30 this Board for confirmation.

freely offered as landed but, in the crowded state
of our dock quays, not much progress is made in
the delivery Of parcels sold by samples, of which
only portion have been discharged from the ship.
Increasing importance must be attached TO the
practice of Offering and selling lists TO arrive, the
qualities represented being guaranteed, in which
manner some weighty transactions have been en-.
tered upon; and this feature is likely hereafter to
be more extensively adopted, it secures both
spinners and spectators from irregularities Of for

in the future is strengthened by the promising
of trade in the manufacturing districts, and the
cheaper necessares OF life, of which latter we en-
iov weather calculated TO insure abundance. Mon
ey matters are not so natterlng, out the prospect
OF specie arriving in quantity induces the hope OF
increased accommodation, and ultimate, though not
immediate relaxation in discount rates. To-day
there is again more tone in the market, and e1-
treme rates are demanded, particularly for good
staple cotton, middling and upwards. The estima-
ted sales are l5 600 bales Of which 5000 are to
