LOCAL SELF-GOVERNMENT.
THE COSTIGAN BILL ORDERED TO A THIRD
READING.

SPIRITED DEBATE IN THE AssEMBLY-cHARGEs by
REPUBLICANS TrIAY THE BILL IS INSPIRED BY A
DESIRE OF PLUMBER - CLAIMS BY THE DEMO-
Gratis THAT THEY SEEK TO MAINTAIN THE TRUE
PRINCIPLES OF DEMOCRACY.
lFRoM TIE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT OF TIE TRIBUNEJ
ALBANY, Feb. 1.-THE, action OF the Assembly to-
day was the legacy of last nights caucus While
the Costigan bill did not full Democratic
vote, il secured easily the number requisite to in
sure its passage, and there was apparently no
attempt to coerce members present who abstalned
from voting, and no special anxiety to hunt up alb
sentees. The debate was the most spirited of the
session. ard the first really partisan discussion
into which the body has been led. Both parties
twitted one another with the intimate friendship in
times past of Mr. William NJ. Tweed. The Republicans
rang all the time-hOnored charges about Tammany
Hall dictation while the Democrats raked mp un-
pleasant memories of the days when Ar. Tweed
owned O good part of the Republican party, as well
most of the Democratic. In these researches into
ancient political history the bill was soon lost sight
of and the vagaries of the discussion found their
extremes in Mr. Prince and Mr. Vedder, the first
narrating an instance of the way IN which he
had stood by Gov. Tilden in the Legislature some
years ago, and the latter drawing q comparison be-
tween Napoleon and Tweed, the chief point of which
serious discussion which the biz received was from
the New-York members, and of these the arguments
of Mr.. Seward against the bill and Mr.. Waehner in
its favor were the most successful Mr. Seward is one
of the most careful and finished speakers on the
floor of the Assembly, and Mr.. Waehners speech to-
day was much above the legislative average An
amusing incident of tic debate the reference OF
Republicans to the presence of Col John r. Fellows
on the floor, whom they pictured as carrying Dir.
Kelly's whip. Col Fellows. it should be said, dis
claims any such honor. Many Senators were at
tcntye spectators Of the scene. and the Assembly
Chamber was tho special center of interest Of the
day The vote on the bill stood G7 to So and while
this vote was only that OF the Committee of the
Whole it leaves doubt of the final passage of the
bill. The Republicans assert however, that they
will contend against it to the last The outlook for
the bill in the Senate iS rs unfavorable rs ever.
