Of the mayor was reduced from $400 to
$500 per annun1; the city sergeant was re-
duced from s400 to $500; the superin-
tendent OF Maury Cemetery from, 5000
to 5000; the city auditor from $40 to
S720. After the 1st of July two police
men will be dropped and one continued
at 5000 per annum. The pay OF the chief
OF police and acting engineer was con-
tinued at $1,000 per annum. No action was
taken on the pay OF the clerk of the Hus-
tings Court and city treasurer. The pay Of
the commissioner OF revenue is not to ex-
ceed S400 per annum. The office OF city
attorney (not being provided for in the
charter) is declared void. The Common
wealth's attorney is allowed 5000, and 5000
additional as city attorney. The reductions,
it is estimated, will save $4,000.
The action OF the Council was the alb
sorbing topic OF discussion Saturday, their
action being the subject Of both commenda-
tion and condemnation; but majority Of
those conversed with by the reporter strong
ly opposed the reduction, particularly the
cutting down Of the police force and the
reduction by fifty per cent. of the pay Of
the superintendent of the cemetery.

LOCAL MATTERS.

CAUCUS AND LEGIs..ATIvE WoRK.-About
seyenty-fivc members of the two houses,
who claim to be good and true Conserva-
tives, have authorized the secretary OF the
caucus to enrol their names in accordance
with the resolutions of Messrs. Bohannon
and Clarke adopted on Friday night. When
the resolution offered by Major Daniel is
thoroughly understood it is probable that
many more will unite with this Conserva-
tive organization. That resolution declares
"that the purpose OF this organization, as
regular Conservatives, is simply to bring
them together to consult on party policy,
and not to determine any legislative ques-
| tion."
| Many Sirnon-purc readjusters are almost
determined to go into the regular organiza-
ton. There are in the two houses about
ltwenty-one Independents and about twelve
| instances the political complexion is 80
mixed that it is hard to tell whether the
party is more Republican or Independent.
Mr.. James Barbour is absent from the
city.
Members are already beginning to leave
for their homes, not to return until after
the Christmas holidays. AS they are now
paid by the session, and not by the day, they
are at liberty to stay away as long as they
please.
1t was stated by the House Finance Com
mttec OH Friday that the double-funding
already discovered foots up about $4,000,
and that there are signs that it will amount
to $4,000. 1t is also said that Mr.. Hunter
has furnished the special joint committee
with a statement in defence OF his Office.
| This committee holds secret sessions, but
its proceedings find their way to some few.
A subcommittee OF the House Finance
Committee (W. Y. Taliaferro chairman)
propose to make thorough examination OF
the Basement, and, il necessary, will ask
for permission to employ an expert ac-
countant to assist them.
A resolution was introduced in the House
on Saturday looking to the publication in
pamphlet form, once week, Of abstracts Of
the speeches delivered day by day, and it is
proposed to pay therefor $50 per week.

4 Pleasant Entertainment.-The first
cotillon SoirEe Of the Excelsior Social was one
of the most successful and pleasant, in every
respect, ever given in the city. The COM
pany was sociable and select, the music Of
the first order, and the refreshments fur
nished by the ladies' committee all that
could be desired. The Excelsior SoirSes
will be continued during the winter. They
are held at the houses Of the members on
invitation, and no tickets are sold under
any circumstances. Better specimens Of
Richmond and Manchester's beauty and
chivalry than those present at the initial
soiree never before graced a similar occa-
sion in this City.
