A resolution was submitted by Mr. Bowen directing the attorney to report the several con ditions imposed on the Washington and Rock ville Turnpike Company by their charter, and -whether such conditions, and all the require ments of their charter, have been complied -with, and whether, in his opinion, the company .have violated the charter; adopted. A letter from Mr. Tobias Boudinot, accepting the office of superintendent of roads, was re ceived. A letter was received from Mr. Utermehle, attorney of the court, in answer to a resolution in relation to the rights of the Washington and Jiovkville Turnpike Company to collect tolls, in which he reviews the law chartering the company and the decisions of the courts here tofore given, and gives hiscpinion that the com pany has a legal existence, and has a right to collect tolls over tnis road in the District of Columbia. Col. Belt submitted a resolution authorizing the appointment of two supervisors of roa is in each school district instead of one, as hereto fore; adopted. A letter was received from V.. C Robbins, Kegister of Wills, enclosing his third bill for recording wills left unrecorded by the late Ed. K. Roach, in which he refers to the speech made by Mr. M. Lamer in the City Council on the 4th inst., and denies that he has petitioned the Levy Conrt to allow him fourteen cents per hundred words for recording the wills re ferred to. He aiso states that he never has had any wills copied or recorded at so low a rate as five ceiits per hundred words, and none he permits to b* copied outside of his office unless at his own residence. In conclusion, he states that the copying of wills left unrecorded by Mr. Roach has cost him over twenty cents per bunded words; laid on the table. On motion of Mr. Burr, it was resolved that the supervisors shall receive ?3 per day when they work six or more able-bodied men, dri vers exclusive, and per day when working a less number. The court proceeded to the election of super visors with the tollowing resultIsaac Mar shall elected fur 1st district; Daniel Lightfoot, 2d district; James T. Osborn and S. P. Brown, fid district: A.

On motion of Mr. Blagden, an appropriation vas made for Piney Branch road. Adjourned. Pennsylvania Avence.?In noticing the Chronicle's abuse of the city authorities for not cleaning Pennsylvania avenue, we stated that Congress was the party really at fault in not affording the Commissioner of Public buildings who has charge of the avenue adequate means to keep it in proper condition. In this connec tion, Commissioner French says : " I h*ve only to say that Pennsylvania | avenue is four miles long and one hundred s.nd sixty feet wide, and prior to the establishment cf that blessing to all citizens, the horse rail read, was pretty much cut to pieces by omni busses; and the work of injury has since been nearly completed by army wagons. To keep cH this road in repair. Congress appropriated last year six thousand dollars. I called the attention of Congress to the concmion of the avenue in my last report, and to the inade quacy of the appropriation, and asked for iv.enty thousand dollars, which sum, judiciously expended, might keep the avenue in decent order. "By some means, the sum asked by me was reduced, in the printed estimates, to six thousand dollars, a sum as entirely inadequate to the purpose as six thousand cents would be; and the Committee of Ways and Meanb have, 1 understand, agreed to report that small sum, notwithstanding that I went before them and stated the error, (if error it was,) and informed them that Pennsylvania avenue must continue in a state of nuisance unless a more generous appropriation were made. "The appropriation of last year was long since exhausted in endeavors to make (be ave nue tolerable by patching the worst places -along it, and removing the dust and mnd. I bave done my utmost with the means placed in my hands, and can do no more until further means are at my disposal, and ?fi,000 will do but little, as all practical men must be aware." An *MrsovEMEWT ?Messrs. Job Angus (not *' Augur," as a city paper has it) and Thomas Lewis Lave leased from Mr. Thomas Donoho (not " Dougherty, ' as another city paper has it > the ground at the northwest corner of D and !'th streets. adjacent to the residence of Mr. .Donoho. The lessees have tak^n the ground for a term of ten year? at the rate of SI. t0?? per year, the buildings they place on the ground to revert to Mr. Donoho at the end of that period. !They propose to place upou it a two-story building, l(?v feet by 4u, the first floor to be used for stores and the second story as a first-cla#s saloon. The venerable owner of the property (well known as for almost a lifetime the respected chief clerk of the Intellijericrr office) will doubt less miss the grateful shade aud other pleasant accessories of these grounds, but we suppose be thinks that 91,100 per year is rather too much money to pay lor the luxury. The Rev. Dr. Bcdinoton, of Brooklyn, N. Y? requests us to state that the announcement in the marriage notices of the Star ot the 11th instant, purporting to be the marriage of his daughter, was entirely lalBe, as well as ma licious. On referring to the advertisement (marriage notice) in question we find it dnly endorsed, according to the requirements of the office, with the name of the party bringing it, nd vouching for its correctness. This style of silly &s well as malicious mischief is growing too common, and the northern courts, we e, have lately punished the pa n*s practising it severely. We trutthc guilty party in this case may receive sodQgpuch wholesome lesson. Very Fine.?A city cotemporary, describing the search for a girl in a house of iaiamy says cf the young lady : "She had a mark on her cheek which neighbored a dimple whi never ber lips would be wreathed in smiles, aud which showed itself perceptibly wheneversne manifested colloquial animation." This is Tery fine. Assault ani> Battery.?On Monday alter roon Levi Pumphrey and a German, named Otto H. Evring, met in a restaurant o*?4, be tween 4 % and 6th afreets. Pumpbrey,' on some provocation, real or imaginary, struck "Eyring in the face. Officer McColgan arrested Pum phrey and took him belore Justice Glbereon, who sent him to jail lor ?ourt. Meeting oftdkSa.ddl?ahdHakne88 Ma kers.?A meeting of the journeymen saddle and harness makers of the District was beld last night at tbe Germania Hotel, V street, for the purpose of perlectlng the organization of an association. Mr. George A. Sessford in the chair, and Henry J. LeesueiUner secretary. The resignation of George ?. Baylis, Uva? nrer, was receiTed an? accepted, and Mr. Wzn. Daw was elected to fill the vacancy. The committee to draw up a bill ol prices reported that they had not yet completed their work, and asked further time, which was granted. The constitution and by-laws were reported and adopted. The constitution is prefaced by a preamble-which sets forth the object to be "to assist each other in obtaining and uphold ing a uniformity of prices, and such other regulations in tbe various branches of our trade as may tend to the benefit and happiness ot all concerned, both journeymen and em ployers." Among other provisions is one constituting all the members in eacb shop a committee of inquiry, who shall procure the names ot each journeyman, not members of the society, ob taining work, and propose such person for membership at the next stated meeting, and if such person neglect or refuse to join the society at tbe next succeeding stated meeting to demand his dismissal from work.
