The brick work of structure, to be
more or less imposing as the case may be,
was yesterday commenced at the corner of
Cedar and Cherry streets. We are in
debted to Maj. james M. Hinton, at whose
suggestion the building goes up, for the
names of those engaged in this important
work: Architect, John Reddick brick

is said TO desire the job by way of keeping
his hand in. 1t is understood that our

An Examination,

In the report of the Chairman Of the
Finance Committee mention is made of the
number of city checks deposited with the
Nashville Savings Bank" which ID the
name Of the charter under which Mr..
Sax conducts his business. Some per-
sons, we understand are laboring under
the impression that this is the Bank with
which MessTs Mari d TaTbOx are con-
nected. This is . mistake as the name
of their hank is the National Savings
Company" and we need scarcely state
that they have had nothing to do with the
CHECK" business, whatever either direct
ly or indirectly. The Chairman of the
committee would not give them 4 chance.

The Mayor gave notice that he had re-
ceived copy of the last acts of The Legis-
ture, one of which defines the boundaries
of Edgefeld. He read the boundaries,
and remarked that by the passage of the
act, one Of the Aldermen had been left
outside of the corporation limits. The
Board could take whatever action was
deemed necessary. En-, ...
A communication from w. Z. A. Ramsey,
r. S. Holiins, A. Mcdonald and A. V. s.
Lindsley was presented, representing that
many years ago, and before there was any
corporation, they by voluntarily agreement,
graded and improved certain streets, and
in consideration of which, the petitioners
ask that in the present assessment
and collection of taxes they be permitted
to set up in payment the several assess
ments, by each one heretofore expended
in shid improvements as the same may
be established and audited before a COM
mittee appointed by the Board for that
purpose. The communication was Oh

The bill TO encourage manufacturing in
Edgeheld, was passed upon its Thrill and

In connection with the change in the
boundary lines of Edgefeld, the Mayor
called attention to section 797 OF the code,
which provides that an Office is yocated
by the offer ceasing to be a resident OF
the State, or of the district, circuit, or
county for which he was elected or ap-
pointed. He remarked that, according 10
this section, Mr.. Sanford was no longer a
member of the board. He had no personal
feeling in the matter, and regretted to
part with Mr.. Sanford, who WAS a good
Alderman.
Alderman Stubbleield moved that the
board proceed to the election of a mem
Der of the board to fill the. vacancy, and
nominated L. J. Hopkins for the position
Alderman Campbell nominated Sam
Davidson. E..#..E
The vote was taken and resulted as fol-

Hopkins was declared elected.
Alderman Woodfold moved that Tulip
street be improved before the work is com
menced on any other street, which on mo-
ton was carried. -l
The bill providing for the purchase of
the island was called up, but owing TO the
fact that two OF the members were absent,
it was deemed advisable TO postpone &C
ton.
Alderman Stubblefeld offered a resolu-
ton authorizing the chairman of the
Street Committee TO advertise for pro.
possls for building culverts on the streets,

The Picnic Of the Ambrose Fishing
Climb

There was a goodly number attended
the picnic of the Ambrose Fishing Club
yesterday. Omnibuses, carriages and
vehicles started from the residence of
Joseph Ambrose, Esq, at 9 o'clock, and
arrived at Dyer Springs about IL. The
grounds had been cleared and prepared
for the dancers, who were soon enjoying
themselves in the pleasures of the terTsi-
Ghorean art. Dinner was announced at 2
o'clock and there was plenty for all and
some TO spare. Dancing was afterwards
kept up until 5 o'clock, when a hard rain
set in, and ended the sport for the day.
Altogether il was a very agreeable re-un-
ion, and the managers deserve no little
credit, for the admirable arrangements in
every respect. Wilson's string band was
in.attendance, and it is useless to add furn-
ished lively music for the occasion.
