COMMON COUNCIL MERTING.-The common
council met last night, and passed the revenue
Dill fixing the tax at $50 cents per hundred on
real and personal. The council declined to
adept the Washington plan OF making the taxes
due In two tnstalments, but allowed ten per
cent discount on all taxes paid before the 1st OF
July. This levy Is the smallest made since
1874. The combined city and state tax on real
ar personal estate is $50 cents. while $50 cents
Is paid on the District side Of the Potomac.
FUNERAL-The funeral OF late Superintend-
ent CCrnwell took place from the aims house
this afternoon, and was attended by many
officials OF the municipal government and q
number OF friends from Washington.
LICENSES. - The license law Just passed
which will go into effect on the ist OF July,
differs but little from the law OF last year. The
license law here. as in Washington. covers
almost all the methods by which men make a
living, from S. On q cook chop to $50 on a bar
room and 500 on junk shop. All these have
however, to pay state licenses In addition
Physicians, lawyers, DENTISTS telegraph Offices,
marchant tail0rs and oyster packers, who are
not taxed In washington, are required to pay
specific license tax fere; while notartes pub.
lie and apothecar1es, who require licenses
under the District law, are not specifically
taxed here.
RIVER NBws-The steamer Mystic lust re-
pared and made as good as new, came down
on her first trip from Washington at noon and
coaled up, In order TO start upon her regular
river route this evening. The schooner Henry
Warrington. from Washington, passed down at
noon.
