TIN MAYoP REBUKED.-Last night the Democratic
members Of the Board of Councilmen met in caucus,
at the command of Fernando Wood, the whip being
cracked over their submissive heads by Alderman
Wilson the individual who stands under an Indictment
for State Prison ofense, and proceeded % canvass
their course upon the revolutionary and rcbeIlous
resolutions offered BY said Wilson and passed by the
eeryile majority Of the Aldermen. Councilman
Rhodes was put in the chair. The object Of the
meeting was set forth, and AFTER Fer
nando Wood came in and made speech Of nearly an
hour in length. in which he strongly advocated the
adoption Of the resolutions OF which WILSON stands
sponsor. These resolutions simply rebellion against
the State authority. So long they were the prop
erty OF Wilson, nobody cared enough even to laugh at
them; bat when man holding the office of Mayor
indorses them, the matter becomes serious. Mr..
Wood worked hard TO convince the members that
the re'outions ought to be adopted. He was
very sharply replied to by Mr.. Th,mas Jones,
Jr., TIE representative oi the XLIId District
aud Chairman of the Finance Committee. Mr.. Jones
showed 'oHolusyeIy that the course proposed was in
