CITY COUNCIL.

A brief meeting OF the City Council
was held last night. The business,
which was of small volume, was mostly
OF q routine nature, or such rs had been
introduced before but not fully acted
on.
A resolution providing for the Dor
rowing Of $4,000 to meet the current
expenses ofthe city from now until the
first OF June was passed, as was also an
ordinance fixing the salary of the CITY
Treasurer at $500 per annum after the
first day Of next July. The license and
tax bills for the coming year were also
presented and referred TO the finance
committee.
BOARD OF ALDERMEN.
President Marbury and Messrs. Burke,
Rinken, Goodrich, Leadbeater and
Sweeney were present.
The resignation of Mr.. G. G.. Carlin
as q member of the board from the
Third ward was received and accepted,
and Mr.. Goodrich offered a resolution
providing for the filling OF the vacancy
at the regular election en- May 81.
Mr. Hinken favored special cleo
ton, but
Mr.. Goodrich could see no good reason
why q special election, mourning addi-
tional expense, should be held. The
ward would be without the services Of
q second representative but month
Mr.. Sweeney thought it was matter
in regard to which Difference should be
shown the wishes Of the remaining
members from the Third ward.
Mr.. Hinken, however, withdrew his
objection and the resolution was passed.
Several papers which had been acted
on by the lower board were then re-
ceived and their action concurred in,
after which recess was declared in the
absence of business, which time, how
ever. was utilized by au informal dis
cussion of the dog question, Mr.. Lead
beater saying it was subject which
had given him much concern. Most of
the members participated in the discus
sion, it being remarked that some ofthe
specimens of the canine creation seen
at large in the city were far beyond the
proportions of St. Bernards and APP
proXimating those Of full grown lions.
The further discussion of the subject
was brought to a close by the entrance
iuto the chamber of Mr. Fisher, from
the Common Council, who informed the
Aldermen that the lower board were
through with their business aud were
ready 20 adjourn, and the Aldermen
having nothing further to consider ad-
loumed.
