PAY OF THF CORPORATION LABOREIs-Mr
y. Sayles Brown, the disbursing officer of the
corporation, has invited the ward commission
ers and their clerks to meet him at his Office in
the City Hall, on Saturday evening next, for
consultation, with view to adopting some more
uniform and speedy system of enrolling and
paying the laborers Of the Corporation in future.
The issuing of orders to the men, and the want
OF uniformity in the rolls on which they have
been paid heretofore, has resulted in compli-
eating the accounts, and produced great vexa-
tlon and delay in paying them. The rolls up TO
the LIST Of September have been paid, except
small balance In each ward.
