LOCAL MATTERS.

ii THE PAVEMENT Tf$ORDINANCE-THE CITY
ATTORNEYS OPINION AS TO IT'S LEGALITY
Some weeks ago the Common Council passed
a resolution requesting the City Attorney
to give the Committee on Streets bis opinion
as to the legality OF the ordinance requiring
persons to pave at their own expense the
sidewalks in front Of their property. The
following is Mr.. Keiley's opinion:
.s0FPIcE oFTHE. CTY ATTORNEY
..RICHMoNp, Va, June ~, 1871.
"CharIes L. Todd, Esq, Chairman Com
mittee on Streets -
asir,-I am in receipt OF 8 resolution OF
the Common Council transmitted to me Ses-
terday through your committee, as follows:
b H Resolved, That the City Attorney be
and he is hereby requested to furnish this
body with his written opinion as to the
legality Of the AID section OF chapter 33 OF
the City Ordinances, concerning streets, as
amended May IS, 1875.
"Not being advised OF the precise sub
ject referred to me by that resolution-the
section being long. one-I Thought it best
to seek the mover OF the resolution, James
Hayes, Esq, and learned from him that the
question he desired to have answered was,
whether the city Of Richmond has the right
by law to make property-owners pave the
walkway in front of them, and half the
walk at their sides when their lots stand on
corners, at their own cost. Assuming this
to be the scope Of the inquiry, reply that
am of opinion the Council has the au-
thority to pass such an ordinance. There
is no question that the Council may pave the
whole of any street or square and appor-
tion the cost among property-holders ac-
cordng to their frontage; but this is
thought by high authority to differ in prin-
ciple from causing the lot-owners to pay the
the cost OF the pavement in front OF his lot; ;
and it is proper to say that most distin-
guished Judge OF our Supreme Court OF APP
peals has announced that view, though not
necessary to the decision he arrived at in
the case before him.
"The question has never been raised in
Virginia, and very rarely throughout the
Union, which would seem to indicate an
agreement as to the power, it being often
exercised. On principle and authority,
however, I regard the ordinance valid, as
an exercise OF the power conferred by the
charter, and not unconstitutional.
!, "Respectfully,
=. ga, M. KELLEY, City Attorney"

t;ce u. u. White presiding. - The courtroom
was crowded with idlers yesterday morn
ing. About II o'clock the stencil became
SO offensive the Police Justice ordered that
the room be cleared Of those having no
business there. The room was cleared. But
in five or six minutes the crowd OF idlers
came back and resumed the old position by
the railing. And thereafter the atmosphere
was fouler than ever. s, ,s%:!
There were several trifing cases disposed
OF by discharging accused. In most OF them
the magistrates were blamable for. issuing
warrants. The Comnionwealth ts put to
great expense by the ignorance or, inatten-
tion Of some of the magistrates. Instead OF
examining the complainant closely and find-
ing out If the charge is Of consequence and
likely to be sustained, some OF them seem
ready to issue warrants on the slightest oc-
casion. The Police Justice daily complains
of cases brought up in that way.
The continued cases Of Mary Cook (col-
ored), charged with numbering her infant
child, and Margaret Cook, charged with
aiding and abetting her daughter In the
crime, were taken up.
The Commonwealth failed to make out
complete case, but the evidence disclosed
the fact that the girl Mary had given birth
to male child on Or about the 4th OF June.
The child when two weeks old was taken
away by its grandmother, Margaret Cook,
for the ostensible purpose of sending it to
the country. since which time no one had
seen it or could give any account OF It. IS:
The Police Justice decided to hold the
accused in order that the matter may be
fully investigated. The parties were COM
mitted to Jail until Saturday.
At the conclusion Of the examination
Mary Cook swore out warrant before the
Police Justice against Benjamin Williams,
respectable looking colored man, for Sc
duction under the promise Of marriage.
He was arrested aud sent to Jail. His case
will be heard to-day.
John Williams (colored), guilty OF stealing
one pair OF window-sashes from William
Logan, was sent to Jail for four months.
A. J. Smith (colore0 was fined S1S for
fast driving, and being drunk and dis
orderly.
William Walker was fined 50 for dis
orderly conduct in the street.
