EpIroR SESrISrL.-Sir: In your report Of yes
terdsy morning. of the Council proceedings, two
errors occur. IL 10 said in your report that the
Mayors Message stated that, with regard TO the
enlistments in Hanceck's corps. that communica-
tions from the War Department indicated tina!
veterans from Indisns would not be credited TO
localities from which they might have come;
therefore enlistments Of veterans for that corps
would not operate TO diminish our quota.
What was said vas, that the order Tor the
enlistment of veterans permitted them to be
mustered at no place but Washington City, and
that they should be credited TO no place but that
Of actual douicils. and that in NV opinion. under
these restrictions. there would be but little re
cruitng in the West. recommending to the
Council to petition TO the War Department to
permit veterans &c be mustered here, and 10 be
credited TO any locality that would pay them a
bounty
more important error occurred thus: 1 ne
report states that al ordinance Was passed TO re-
peal all measures with regard 70 sidewalks IL
only repealed the ordinance requiring snow and
dirt to be removed leaving all others IN full
force
Please correct. as il might have the effect TO
misle.S and subject citizens TO penalties for VIC
latious Of ordinances they supposed repealed, ard
oBlge y ours truly.
