THE BROOKLYN CONSOLIDATION COMMISSION

1t decided at the meeting OF the Consolidation
Commission, held In the supervisors Hall, Kings

power or the new city should be vested in
the Common Council. 1t was further agreed that
the Board OF Aldermen should consist OF one men,
Der from each ward and one extra from the follow.
ing wards Fifth Sixth, Seventh, Tenth Eleventh,
Twelfth, Thirteenth, Fourteenth, Fifteenth, Six
teenth and Twentieth. This will give forty-one
members to the Common Council OF the new city
OF Brooklyn. Commissioners Fox and Bergen
urged that the Aldermen be elected for two years
and give their services without compensation.
The wishes OF these gentlemen were not complied
with by the meeting. Several sections OF an I'M.
important character were stricken out from the
.'pianr OF Judge Lott, which was adopted on the
day previous. A provision was adopted giving
two assessors to the i've cOuntytOwn wards OF the
new city. There was considerable discussion over
the Fire Department clause, several OF the town
people being OF opinion that that department
would be OF little service to them. Future legisla
ton will be allowed on that subject. The aldermen
are TO be constituted supervisors OF the newcity.
motion was made to reconsider that portion OF the
plan which made the county towns responsible for
the Prospect Park bonds. After lengthy dis
cussion the question was referred to the President
and clerk to draw up q plan Tor consideration.
The Commission then adjourned, to meet on Sat

The Supreme Junta Of War within the besieged
town have published ba7sdO, which says that
those who are not disposed to take an active part
in the defence must leave the town. especially the
women, children and old men. AL physicians,
chemists and surgeons are summoned to appear at
once before the Junta and leave their addresses
and forbidding them to quit Cartagena. The
bakers are also enlarged, as well rs stores Of
food and hour, horses, cattle, arms and ammuni-
ton. The owners OF grocery stores may neither
close their stores nor sell their provisions. It
further says, considering that all those who have
not left the town after our previous procamatlons
are partsans OF the defend, all males from
sixteen years upward TO sixty are called upon to
appear before this Junta, to be formed into four
battalions, which shall be designated the ARTILLERY
OF Cartagena, Infantry Of Fraternity and Caza-
dores OF the Revolution" Before i've p. NJ. all
men were TO be formed and each member of the
force was to carry on hts can, hat or jacket the
name OF the battalion he belonged to, and every
man found afterwards without such insignia was

1 toned, but there seems 10 be
 certain jealousy existing betweel
 the towns, which is injurious tt
 them, as we'll as to the entire dis :, trict. So we are content to say
 that this is the richest mining
 camp that we yet seen.
 THE BUSINESS MEN IN CERBAT as in the other towns in this dis trict, are stable, Obliging, honor able, and very kind and liberal in all their dealings.
 THE ARRASTRES.
 There are now several arrastres at work around this town. &has. Gross has two in operation, and are doing very good work. The ore he crushes is gold-bearins NIT, KnOwltOn has one in opera tion, and we were shown by MT. Pletz, the assayer here, a bar of silver weighing 349 80 fine, and $40 in value, taken out of 1,500 lbs. rock in four days. The eX- pense of running an arrastre is about $10 per day. Our worthy .oint-representative, Geo. Glea- son, who took us around, has two erected, and will start them in a few days. If he is suc- cessful in this, he will put up 40 or 50 more, or at least as many as he can find room for. George isa whole-souled fellow, and We hope he will succeed in his every un- dertaking. Those arrastres will, we believe, have a great tenden- cy to draw capitalists here. The expense of erecting an arrastre is and there is not a man in the district but what can put 1 up and make big wages at it, and if they will only follow the foot 1 steps of others and crush their l rock themselves, the district will 1 prosper immeasurably thereby.
 Here is timber and water ini abundance, and fine grazing country for hundreds of thou- sands of live stock.
 CEDAR DISTRICT ieS about 50 miles south from l here, and is creating quite an ex- ,itement among miners general y. Am reliably informed that here have been some very rich mines discovered there-amOng | .hese, the Hibernia, the Gun tight, Hope and Arnold. The aibernia was sold few weeks ;ince, in San Francisco, to Ely and others, for, $50, ,000 1 ash. The mine is worth much nore, as rumor says; there being low on the dump at least S50,000 worth of ore.
 THE MAYNARD DISTRICT S about 25 miles from here, be. ween Wallapai and Cedar dis rict. Many rich mines are l0ea- ed there, as I understand, and 1 he prospects very good. The )eane mine was sold recently tOa 'arty from Los Angeles. NJ.

nave, WHeIc, tIdukS GO lue OIu- cers of that post, spent several pleasant days. We left there on the 24th ult., in an ambulance, in company with Capt. Eagan and the young lady before men, toned, who were on their way to Prescott. l left the party at
 BEALE's SPRINGS,
 40 miles from MOhave, where I met Capt. Thos Byrne, 18th h. fantry, commander of the post, Lieut.. Hurst, same regiment, A. Q. M.; Dr. Reagles, U. s. Sur geon; Dr. Gildersleeve, Indian Agent, and Mir. Moore, formerly post trader. These gentlemen were very kind to us, and it was several days before we could get away from there. The general appearance of this place is most striking to the eye. It is situated in basin, and almost completely surrounded by mountains, and could be made, with but little outlay, almost impregnable. There are some 600 Hualpai Indians on this reserve, who seem perfectly contented with the life they are leading-deing nothing and get ting 19 fb. of beef, lib. -four, beans and other vegetables daily.
 CAPT. THOS. BYRNE.
 This officer is universally be- loved by his men, protegeS, and all WhO come in contact with him. If there is an honest man living, we would point to Capt. Ryrne as that man. AS an Indian fighter, he has rendered as much service to rid the country Of the wild savages as any other officer in the army, and Gen. Crook has a due appreciation Of his merits, as can be seen by the different 1 general orders in favor of that | officer.
 On the 27th we mounted a mule | and, in Company with MT. Moore, Wended our way towards
 CERBAT, where we arrived, after travelling some F miles due north. This |, town, which is the county seat, is ! situated in a canyon of the Cerbat l range of mountains, which runs north and south. The range is Tot more than about seven miles wide, and on the west side is the Sacramento valley, 15 miles wide, and on the east, the Hualpai val ley, about 20 miles wide. These valleys, and the surrounding hills, are thickly covered with 2 dense growth ct very nutritious grasses, upon which the miners stock grow fat. The name Ger. bat (n0untain sheep) was given by the Huaipai Indians. There are about 125 houses and cabins in the place. which are all occu- pied by stores, saloons, restau- iants, private families and mi uers. There are three large mer- cantile establishments here, which are doing, if we may judge from what we saw, 9 very extensive l tuEiness for the capital invested; tWV restaurants have their hands
