ECHOES FROM THE HOUSE.
THE CENTENNIAL DEBATE-THE COMM
CURRENCY DEBATE.

THE CENTENNIAL DEBATE-THE COMING
CURRENCY DEBATE.
Special to the World.
WASHINGTON. January 2G.-It is the
general opinion that the Centennial
debate exhibited more ability in the
way of oratory than any discussion
which has taken place for years. The
eloquence was, to be sure, of an emo
tional and rhetorical nature, but it
was excellent of its kind, The speech
es which have left the most vivid I'M
preston upon the popular memory
are, perhaps, those of Townsend, Tuck
er, Banks and Lamar. The New
Yorker was witty, whimsical, grotes-
que and yet forcible. The Virginian
WIS learned. logical and convincing.
aid won his spurs as debater at u
single stroke. There was q tinge Of
aggressive bitterness in his tone that
made the common report of his kir-
ship to John Randolph seem natural
The Massachusetts man and the Miss
issippian were elevated in sentiment,
eloquent in expression and earnest in
manner. The whole contest was
marked by courtesy and good feeling,
and the smooth surface of the discus
sion was scarcely ever rufiied by an
angry word. The same kindliness has
followed the decision of the question
at issue. 1t may be said of the defeated
party, "some natural tears they shed"
but they were soon comforted in the
thought that Springer's amendment
was security against fraud, and the.
victory was one so essentially barren
of spoils that the victors are moderate
in their rejoicing. The sentiment or
all sides seems to be hopefulness of
great Centennial celebration fraught
with all these blessings in the way Of
fraternal union and material prosperi-
ty which, set forth triumphantly in
the Congressional Globe, make it read
like new Apocalyptic vision.

CHARGES EOR GAS PIPES.
MIR. McMensmin thinks the CITY IL TN
fairly Treated-Iiis Proposed
Remedy.

lttmeuys
At the meeting of City Council last
evening, Mr.. McMenamin introduced
q preamble and resolutions in regard
to the charges made by the Gas Com
pany against the city, for laying gas
pipe, erecting street lamps, DC. They
are n substance, as follows:
The preamble refers to the fact that
the Gas Company will introduce, with
out charge or guarantee, gas pipes in
to buildings owned by private indi-
viduals and corporations. ON streets
where gas mains are laid, and repair
the streets at their own expense, also,
to the fact that the city is charged for
pipes, pipe laying, erection of lamps
and repairs of streets; and that the
city claims equal rights with individu-
ais or private corporations. The reso-
buttons are as follows:
Resotoed, That the Lamp Committee
be and are hereby instructed to inform
the Gas Co., that it is the opinion of
City Council that all charges made by
them for pipe laying, setting lamps
and repairing streets are unjust, and
should.be discontinued.
Resolced, That the Lamp Committee
be and are hereby instructed to inform
the Gas Co., that on and after the first
day of February, 1876, the Council
will refuse to pay bills of such cllarac-
ter.
Mr.. Febiger asked whether there
was any agreement with the Gas Co.
in regard to this kind of work.
Mr.. McMenamin replied there was
not; Hc said Wilmington paid more
for gas than any other city of the same
size in the country, and was charged
20 cents per foot for all pipe laid.
The city was the Gas Company's
best customer, and should have the
same privileges that are extended to
other consumers.
MIR. Paynter queried what would be
the result if the resolutions were
adopted. The city cannot raake rules
for the Gas Company.
MIR. McMenamin replied that if the
resolutions were adopted the Lamp
Committee would cndeavor to make
the necessary arrangements with the
Company.
The preamble and resolutions were
then laid over one week and the Clerk
instructed to forward a company of
them to the President of the Gas Com
pany.

The Solicitor Desires 10 Settle the Cases
Where Appeals have been made f.,om
the Mayors Sentences.
The Simmer" question has been
source of municipal troubles for
years, and is apparently as far from
settlement as ever. The right of GER
tain parties to sell meat in the street
markets has been disputed point for
long time, and the line of division
between "shinners" and legitimate
farmer butchers has ever been a point
which the shrewdest legal accumen
could not correctly determine.
AT the last term OF Court the case of
VIM. Homewood, a farmer who had
been fined by the Mayor for selling
meat in the street market and had ap.
pealed, was decided against the city,
and the judgment of the Mayor was
reversed. Since that time an appeal
has been taken by every farmer butch
er tried and fined by the Mayor for
violation of the Skinner" ordinance,
and all these cases, some ten in mum
Der, will come before the May term of
Court for settlement.
In reference to these cases the City
Solicitor presented to the City Council
last evening, a communication re-
questing permission to settle these
pending cases, as in his opinion to do
so would result in saving to the city
of considerable trouble and expense. :.
The desired permission was granted.
MIR. Paynter also alluded to the sub
ject in Council, last night, and gave
notice of his inteation at next meeting
TO introduce an ordinance repeating
the "shinner" ordinance. This prac.
tically means free markets, and will
probably create such howl from the
butchers as will leave the troubles as
far from settlement as ever. Some in
termediate measures. which will prove
equally satisfactory to farmers and
city butchers, will have to be adopted
before the vexed question can be
effectually settled.
