City Council.
LAST NreHr's PROCEEDINGS.

The Council met at the usual hour. r. G.
Bishop, President, in the chair.
THB MCMIcKEN EsTATE.--A resolution was
presented by Mr.. Runyan, for authorizing the
City Solicitor to take such steps as may be
necessary to prevent any person or persons
from leasing the Mansion House, on the Ham
ilton Road, the property Of the late Mr..
McMicken. The resolution also authorized
the City Solicitor to inquire on what or whose
authority Mr.. David S. Stillc pretends to lease
the said premises. Resolution adopted.
Hook AND LADDER Co. No. IA resolu-
tion for increasing tho wages of the members
Of this Company from SO month to $l2 80
presented by Mr.. Davis-was adopted.
THE MIAMI CANAL.--Mr. Rule introduced n
memorial for presentation to the Legislature
by the Council adverse to the bill now before
that body, setting forth that the Miami Canal
between Broadway and the River belongs to
the State, and, therefore, the Legislature pos
sess the power to surrender it. The memorial
proceeded 70 show that the portion of the ca
| nal in question is of no special benefit to the
citizens, as merchandise can be carried from the
river to the level of the highest lock at much
less expense than through the canal; that the
| amount received from tolls is not sufficient 10
keep the canal in working order and that the
outlay of $4T 900, the estimated cost of repairs,
would be wasteful expenditure. After q re-
capitulation of all that has hitherto been said
in favor of the surrender of the canal, as con-
ferring benefits upon the city and its inhabi.
tants, it concluded by praying the Legislature
to surrender the canal for sewerage and Other
purposes. The memorial was adopted as th'
memorial of the Council. yIi

! for the satisfaction of judgment against thu

ment of expenses incurred by the committee OF
, Police and Prisons, in visiting Columbus on be

, Mr.. Kiersted. The Chair called for suspen
! sion of the rules. Mr.. Kiersted objected. !
discussion followed, and eventually vote wa
{ taken, which did not sustain the Chair.

Register at $500, was passed, after the rejec
ton of two amendments-one proposing I
make the salary $500 and the other $500.
1 Section 5, appointing the election of th
: Wharf master to take place triennially, on th
= 1st Monday in April, and fixing his salary q
q 81 900 year, was next passed.

A New DoDGE-A BURGLAR IN A Box
NET.-The house of o man named George Frei
berg was entered and robbed few days ago
by some person whose invention is worthy
nobler occupation. He, it seems, had effected
an entrance into the building, and in the hall
found bonnet, cape and cloak, all of which
he put on and passed up stairs. He was seen
by Mrs. Freiberg, but she supposed it was her
sister, who lived in the lower part of the
house, and who was in the habit of often going
into her room, and therefore she took no notice
of the intruder. Some time afterward, how
| ever, she asked her sister if she had been up
stairs, and to her astonishment was answered
| in the negative. She went up into her room
| and found that it had been ransacked, and halt
n dozen silver spoons, some clothing and about
1926 in money, stolen therefrOm, and then she
knew that the robbery must have been com
mtted by the person she saw in her sister,
bonnet. The articles which the rascal hat
used for his temporary masquerade were foun'
outside the door but a few steps off, he think
ing it well enough to abandon those friend
who had served him so faithfully.

FIRE ON SYCAMORE STREET.-The fine three
story brick house situated at No. 141 Sycamore
street, owned by Samuel Cobb, the undertaken,
and occupied by ]. Bagley, as boarding
house, was discovered to be on fire in the roof,
at noon yesterday. Our fremen, however,
who never allow anything to burn, were
promptly on the ground, and in few minutes
had so completely deluged the building with
water that not spark of fire remained. The
total loss will probably reach $1,000, eigh
hundred of which is upon the contents of thu
house. Two hundred dollars will indemnify
Mr.. Cobb, who is, we learn, fully insured.

PROBABLE MURDER--WoMAN BADLY BEATEN
BY HER HUsBAND.-An individual somewhat
renowned, who lived a great many years ago,
and who has said among many bad things
few good enes, remarks that "there is time
for all things" We doubt this--indeed, we
are almost sure it can not be true; but assuming
that it is, we will venture to affirm that this is
the time to be bestal. One of the law makers
Of our country shoots a colleague in the street,
and the lower classes, all over the country,
who get their cue always from the higher, fol-
low the example they have received from the
seat of government. Revenge aroused, with
lowering brows, stalks all abroad, while MUIR
der.follows close in his footsteps; and, much as
we regret it, we are almost every week COM
PEELED to record the fact that another crime is
added to the already far too sanguinary record.
Yesterday man named James Medallion,
who resides on Eighth street, near the base Of
Mt. Adams, and whose wife for many years
has patiently borne his abuse, went home very
much intoxicated, fell upon her with hatche
and beat her so severely that it is thought sht
can not survive. Her wounds were principally
upon the head and face, and from what WI
could learn both must have been completely
jellied. He was arrested and taken to tn,
Hammond street Station house, and will prob
ably have hearing before His Honor Judg
Pruden this morning.
| Rum or, as in every case of this kind, eve
since the above was written, has been tellin
different tales in regard to the condition of tn
woman. 1t was reported that she was deaf
and again that she was speechless, and now
q at one o'clock-that she would be likely to r,
cover. We have no means Of determining,
0 this late hour, the truth in regard to the ma
e ter, but sincerely hope, for his sake, that IL
. crime of murder may not be added to the a.
d count already registered against this unfOrt,
nate man.

POLICE CoURT.-There was little business of
Importance before Judge Pruden yesterday
morning.
Arthur Ancrosin drove his team through q
funeral procession, and upon payment Of costs
was admonished to sin in this manner no more.
Mary Bearman, whose fondness for whisky
overcame her moral nature, for want OF money
to purchase, and being unable to control her
desire for some of that abominable stuff, re-
sorted to an appropriation of decanter full,
which was the property Of another, and was
sent to the Jail for term of 30 days, after
having plead guilty.
Mary Frick, who has sister in sin named
Emma Wright, assaulted her unfortunate
friend, and the Judge thinking such behavior
very bad, held her to bail in the sun of 5000
| to answer the charge at another time.
Half-dozen others, whose appetites made
them mad, were punished, some with fines and
some imprisonment, for having INDUCED theil
unfortunate passion for stimulants.
A man named ohm Reinhardt was sentenced
to imprisonment in the County Jail, for tel
days on bread and water, fer having obtained
about twelve dollars worth Of goods from
man named Cohen, under the promise of man
ufacturing them into coats, but which he failo'
| to do. He took the unmade garments home
but failed to return them, and Mr.. Cohen, think
ing he would never do so, had him arrested
whom it was shown he had sold them and use
the proceeds, whersupon the aforesaid job
was sentenced as we have stated.

SINGULAR DEATH.-A man named Jacob
Helsch, who resided at East Walnut Hills some
months ago, was bitten in the shoulder by a
horse. About six weeks since, after the wound
had apparently healed, he was seized with yio-
lent shooting pains from the shoulder down the
side to the stomach, which left him entirely
PROSTATE, and from the effects Of which he
eventually died. This appears to us some
what singular case, and would be, we should
think, to medical men worth investigating.

JUBILEE AT THE JAIL.-Yesterd a man
named VIM. Bowen, who had been indicted and
imprisoned for counterfciting, was acquitted by
the Court, which was, believe, the first acquit-
tai since the present Prosecuting Attorney en-
tered upon the discharge of his duties, and, the
fact becoming known at the Jail, the prisoners
held a kind of Jubiktte Dec over its announce
ment. They seem to regard it as good omen,
but we are afraid their rejoicing, like hearty
laughter, will end in tears. 5-

AFTER the attempt which was made by some
of the prisoners to escape, few days ago,
Jailer McLain concluded to mako thorough
search Of the premises; and succeeded in find
ing two or three of those piercing saws, used
by watchmakers, and several files, which are
supposed to have gotten into the jail by being
thrown over the wall by some friends of the
prisoners. a.-a .f'

MAN ALMOST KILLED BY A FALL OF EARTH.
A man whose name we were unable to learnb
was found about six o'clock yesterday, half
buried in earth, at the summit of Mount
Adams. It is supposed that he fell from one
Of those bluffs which have been left by ths
grading of the hill, a distance of eighteen OI
twenty feet His appearance denoted that he
was unfortunate in his habits, and that he had
fallen while in a state of intoxication. 1t il
thought he can not survive.

ee- 1t is not generally known-says the
New York 7Tibune-that the Hon. AUGUSTUS
BELMONT, Mr.. PIERCE Minister TO Hague.
has quarreled with Mr.. BCcHaNAN. and is now,
with Mr.. DOUGLAS, believer in Popular
Sovereignty. The reason Of this breach be-
tween Mr.. BELMONT and the representative of
Orthodox Democracy, has naturally been
made known TO u.s. since il is well understood
that the Tribune is the antnor 81 all NJ " =
political greatness, just Is il is OF Mr.. CAss's
appointment as Secretary Of State. The
fact Is, then, that about year since Mr.. BEL
MONT imperatively. and even rather violently
demanded of Mr.. BUCHANAN to be made En-
voy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipoten-
tiary to Madrid. The President, having
other views, declined this gentle invitation.
Mr.. BELMONT. therefore. wrote an angry let
ter 70 Mr.. BUCHANAN, aud desired Senator
SLIDELL to deliver il. Mr.. SLIpELL declined
TO do so. on the ground that IL was not sum
GENTLY respectful. whereupon BELMONT quar-
relied with SLIDELL, sent the letter by the
post. and went over to DoUGIAs.

~ The democratic members OF the
"Break Slate Ticket in New York. il de-
feated, are defeated by less than thousand
votes. They might have been elected by a
triumphant majority, but for the discords and
divisions Of the democratic party. The re-
suit, however, must prove beneficial. 1t has
proven to the Americans who nominated the
"Break Slate Ticket. that they have the
power to break the strength OF the republi-
cans, and we may rest assured that when they
have another opportunity they will do t.
Should the contest in 1860, for the Presideu-
cy, be narrowed down to republican on one
side and democrat on the other, as seems
most probable at present, they can interposc
and divide the vote OF New York between
them equally. This of itself, will go far 10
defeat the Republican ticket. II the Ameri
cans of the Empire State do more than this,
they will accomplish much towards relieving
the country of party conceived in sin and
brought forth in inquity." There's some com
fort in the reflection.

The Lendon Herald endeavors to establish
the fact that France and England are on the
eve of dreadful misunderstanding which
NAPOLEON will fan into an outbreak of
actual bostilities. The Liverpool Post of
October 26th, remarks as follows upon the
matter:
ave have reason to believe that there is
no truth in the reported misunderstanding
between France and England. On the con-
trary. we have no doubt that Louis Napoleon
and Lord Palmcrston perfectly understand
each other. The telegraph having rendered
even express news comparatively stale, the
foreign correspondents of the London papers
are necessarily hard up for novelties as
tolerabie substitutes for facts. There is.
therefore, a great deal of guess work in their
contributions; but one holder than all the
Others contrives TO give TO airy notbings a
local h;rbtation and name This magma
live gentleman enlivens the pages of the
Morning Herald. and imports into his letters
very alarming information. Events frequent
ly ialsify his assertions; nevertheless he is
now and then right; but we hope not of late,
for. If he were entitled to credit, we are on
the eve OF general war;

CONSCIENCE STRICKEN-A few years ago
Rev. Mr.. B. faithful, fearless preach
er in one of the chill towns" of Hampshire
county, preached pointed sermon against
the use of ardent spirits. especially designed
for member Of his congregation who was
in the habit Of hiring his help at a low price,
in consideration OF the frequent treats that
he furnished his workmen. odd Nat felt
himself particularly 'hit" by the discourse,
as the coat fitted him exactly. aud therefore
absented himself from church fer some two
years. A few weeks ago he was seized with
his last illness, aud expressed desire to see
Rev. Mr.. B before he died. His son
went po>t-haste for the minister, who. Of
course, was quite ready to respond to the dy-
ing man summons. On entering the room
be was greeted with the cool salutatiOn: Mr..
b, am about to die, andI have sent for
you that you might have "a chance 10 apollo
gize to me for that liquor sermon you preach
ed to me Two years ago"
