Ml The Board of Common Council met on Friday ornlng last, Mr Dun lop In the chair i uc renewing message wu received from Mayor Crawford Matok Orfici, Gaoaorrowji, D C., 1 January JK. l*?U \ T" tiit Poitrtl of Common Commeil; Gentlemen?In reply to the following resolution, passed on the 23th instant. vit: ' Resolved. bv the Hoard of Common Council, that tbe Mayor be. and he la hereby, requested to inform thii board, at ita next meeting, for what causes he removed Kxtra-Pol icemen Caleb Sehastian.Jefferson Robertson. John V Donaldson, and Walter B Pomeroy." Now, and at all times hereafter, saving acd reserving to myself sll benrflt sad advantage of pxceptiou to tbe objection apparent on tbe face of this resolution, that it ia the act of a single branch of the municipal councils, which alene appoints no officer of the corporation but tbe clerk to ita own board, I readily inform you that tne appointment ?f these extra policemen was revoked by tbe operation of tbe principle that tbe derivative authority expires with tbe original authority, d* facto, from which It proceeds. Tbe power of constituting these corporate arenta wu founded upon tbs alleged right of the principal to the office of Major, and when It wu determined, by the law of the land, that that right did not exist, by that very fact the right of those extra policemen to continue In office ceased Finding these vacancies, I filled them with my own selections, by the power conllded to me by the Joint resolution of January IS, 1881, to appoint "eight persons as an extra police force." Very respectfully, vour obedient asrvmat, Richa.hu R CsawroBD, Mayor Mr. Stake moved that the message be entered on the record; snd after a warn diacuaalon be* tween himself and Mr. Tenney, the motion was carried The following messxge was also received from the Mayor: Natoi'i OrrtcK, GioaatTows, D C., > February 1,1WI. \ To Ik* Boards of Aldermen and Common Council: Gentlemen?I deem It proper to Inform yoo that the quarter'* interest on ten thousand dollars of lue Corcoran ccaritr, Invested In Menphti City Bond*, due on tbe 1st instant, viz., three hundred dollars, baa not been paid. Tbe ordinary want* of tbe poor of tbe town, at tbis inclement season of tbe year. It is well known, are aggravated bv tbe general stagnation of budneM. throwing out of employment those who were dependent for their dally bread upon their daily labor. Tbe very mention of the objects of this noble charity, ->tbe helple?s and destitute ftm-ile Inhabitants of tbe town," Is sufficient to excite compassion in every feeling mind, and when it is remembered that tbis fund ruust be expended in the provision and distribation of tboas necessaries of life, which prevent tbe calamities of cold, hunger, and nakedness, In tbe purchase "of bread, tea, sugar, coflre, body and bed clothing," a forcible appeal, I think, is made to tbe Corporation, to obviate even a temporary failure of tbe blessings of tbis charity. The resources of the Corporation at this time are perhaps too limited to make an advance of the interest, which I have stated to be due; but may It not, by the use of Its credit, make tbts charity immediately available to tbe beneficiaries, so well calculated to engage its earnest care and sympathy! Recommending the matter to your most favorable consideration, i am, Tcrjr reapecuuiiy, vour coed lent servant, Richard K. Ckawfukd, Mayor. Mr Stake presented a communication from the Truntee of the Poor and Workhouse, asking whether it was in hi* power to make a change in the superintendency of the institution whenever he thought proper. After an exciting and lengthy discussion of a partisan character?iu which Mewri Stake, Tenney. and other gentlemen participated?the communication was referred to the committee on the poor and workhouse, with instructions to get the Recorder's opinion on the legal question involved. An account of the assessors for service*, one of Waters & Hunt for printing, one of J. J McQuillan, and the report of the late trustees of the poor and workhouae for the quarter ending I>ecetiiber 31, lNki. were read and referred. The ways and means committee reported the usual ordinance for the levying a general tax and special direct taxes for thecurrent year; read once, and lays over under the rule Mr Hill, from the conference com mitt e on the Vand?rwerken resolution, renoru-d * antiatltnt* which wa? read once. A resolution in favor of \Vm. H. Fletcher, and a revolution amendatory of an ordinance in relation to swine, ^introduced by Mr Tennejr,) were rend once and lav over, and the Board adjourned. The officers of the "Home Guard*," of the "Georgetown Mounted fiuard." end of companies A and li "Andcraon Riflea," received their commission! on Saturday. The officers ?>t the "Potomac Light Infantry ' and of the "Scott Rifles" received their some daya since. The Georgetown Mounted Guard, Capt.
