Mr. P. II.

Mr. Il0llyadds tihat the colored people of Oreenvylle haveIlhtorally contributed to the funds contributedby tlhat town, and that whilst he Is satisfied thatthe rumor iewithout the eIPst foundation, hewishes Mayor Pilsbury to send him atn officialdenial of the infamous charge.

At the eeooting of the City Council yesterday atwo very important resolutions were aidorted.one of them relates to the abolition of the Cit. yInsano Asylum by authorizing the Mayor to on- ster into such agreement as lie may dooeem ad-vlsable regarding the charge of the insane now.or that may hereafter become the charges of the 8city. The agreement is to be submitted to the itCity Council boeoreo flual action. From what Ihas beoo gathered from timer to time by ',ur reporter at tihe City hall, concerning the Iniane aAsylum. it ls apparentt that the efforts of Mayor pP'lilhury and Adminilatrators MeOaiffroy and aOavanac to better the condition ot the demoenledand oever their connection with politics ,will soon be brought to a close. After amany months of conslderation, It, is bellved, owe rndersttand, that the SItsterr of the Loitsi-anla IRetreiat who have enlarged their inttlllu-tion, will take the inrmates of the asylum atiomlpenHnatlon not exceeding the present ruin-

ninig expenses of the City Asylum, Ilffl'dling ctholn at the samen time, hetor lquarers and iltreatment than the, can now have.

THIIE MAIKEiT REVENUE, n

The resolution authorizing the salo of the rrevenues of the city markets for one year, ho-gintllliln on t.he first of Januntry next, is sleg-goated, we, also understanld, by a destiro on thepart of the administration to pay the polico, Ischool teachers and other employees of the geity as far as possible for the present year.The av''rago amount derived from timesale of the markets is about, t15,000 permonth, which, even at that prico, would ,bring in $1ao.000 for the yo ar. But it,is betlieved that more can be obtained by selling ,by the year than by the month. There areius2,rOu0 still due on those market revenues to the t

State Nationan Bank, which would leave a round isum of t100,000 to tay the monthly rollR of the lcity employees, amounting to about Sil o0to each amonth, This sum, togetlher with the taxes andlicones., which are naturally expected to comeIn with the revival of businnes in November itand December, will. it Is hoped. be sunficient to ipay the half of July. August, 8titenmber andOctobert, still due, and the full months of No. ,rtdmbor and December. d

This course, while It will assist materially allthe salaried ofllcers of the city, will not it isthought, interfore with the worklungs of thecoming administration, which will have the sale I,of city rallroadl fralinchiRs and wharf revenuns ,to carry it through, rin aIdvintage that tith prros- teint city admlnistration did not have, but who.on the cont rary. went into office with a debt of aover 5270,0o.0 left, by their prodecossors.

On motion, itt was agreed that the evidence cdid not. substantiate the charge.aund the casewas dis misseti.

THE eARtnAcE QUESTION.Mr. MOfaffroey having off-rod a i• olutlon to t

i,ring the garbage question before the City ICounitl. Mayor Piltatry took occasionto saythat if he had not brought the r--port of lho I

omnlnmissioners before the Cournil, it was bo- 1cause the investigation was not authorized bythat body. but made simply att the individualrequest of Mr. McCaffrey. Desldes. in his opin- 1ion. he thought that the commissioners' reoortcovrred grounds beyond tile luestion at issue.

Mr. Diamond exoressed it as his opuv Ion thatthe Council could not very well take cognizance iof the matter, unless the appoiutment of thecommission should be at least flrst confirmed aby the Conincll. f

After further exrhange of views the Council radopted tie resolutiorn and the matter was or-drtred to lio over for a weeok.

It is Mr. McCaffroy's intention to present acouonter statement to the Connil when the re-port shall come before that body.

I regret that it is impossible for me to nrattendyour meeting to-night, and theorefore beg tosubmit, lo writing what I should have to saywere I present in person, viz;

In the event. of my clctloti as a membetr of theSernate. I shall take my seat, nalodged at dunder no oblilgations to any ring, monopoly orindividual. in any way. shape or manner.

As regard'the Loui-ianta Lottery C(nrltmpany mronopoly Iexpress my opposition to that as I do to othermonopolloies.

oiinro tfew days ago, when intervlewed by itrepresentative of the It)erOtOniAT. I statet., nlleffect. that I was persotaily, and as ia membrerof the Leglslat.uirn, opposed to Ill lotlorlies. Io-'lieving thoem to hilve mottlre or less a demnoraliz-ing tendency. and that I considered them. as agenoeral tlllig. to eli intl itlded in that class ofpractie's which are termred "contrary to goodnioralls," and which legshlatiton for upwards oa cntulry has boon comparatively unable toRltDprOe or do away with. I have hoeard recent-ly a rumor that I was in some wray connectedwith, or under thl influence of tihe LotteryCompsny. I gladly avail myself of this oppor-tunity to state, most plalnly antd emphatically.thIat I not nor have I over been connectedwith that instltution in any way. shape or urin-nor.I have already expressed myself as being inlevor of ia constitutiOllotl convention, andi i,sing opposed to what is known as the MofiTtt 1igl'ster law.Should a new city chartOr be presented, nwhich, in its provisions is manifestly more con- ttucive to the intemests of the city than thatunder wuich we are now working, it will have cmy earnest support, and I should favor alleOettureo looking to the direct employment oflab r by oilty offlicals. and of all general provi-ions calculated to work a reduction of taxa-tion.

1 consalder the present: license system as detri-mental to progress and industrial advancement.particularly to that portion of the people whoro required to pay a heavy license whilst

operating on a cotnparnatrivly small capital.I am unquesItionably in favor of the nlffTairs of

both the city and State being condUoted on thelowest possible basis of expenditure, consistentwith a proper and an efficient administrtitlonof their respecive governments, and shouldconsider it advisable to fix the a ompensatilon ofconstitutional elective anid app)ointive ollfoersand all their employees at sunl rates as may hefairly remulnertive, roaeonable and just for thecharacter of services p•rforlmed and responsl-bllities assumed and Incurred. and to pay thesame in cash ait stateid intervals.

with great applause.

MAJOR HENRY .1. IglIhAN.candllato for Administrator of Commerce, beng called, said:ly many addresses to you in this very hall,

and my position as a citizen, speak as to myfuture conduct. It is impossible for any onenominee to say what he is going to do ifelected, without a consultation with his col-leagues, because clrcumstanees could risewhicth would prove hint an unwilling liar.

I will comply with all the duties of my omfle--shall never go beyond my duty. I am opposedto onerous taxation and ordinances detrimeAtalto the poodle. What are monopolies ? There'sthe Slauglhterhouse, first: then the Gas Com-pany, the biggest monopoly of all. I am infavor of paying the laborer what is justlyowing to him, and I am opposed tothe contract system. There are about 15,00tpeople out of employmont In this city, and nextto getting rid of the incubus of the dreaded yel-low fever, the most salutary thing for the work-ing classes is the abolition of the iniquitouscontract system. As an Individual I shall state,hat I have never put down the laborers. as sov-3ral parties have falsely stated. My politicalstatus is known. I have always opposed theNational alliance and the National party, as be-fore you many a time I have stated.

WASHI MARKnS,candidate for Administrator of Assessments,was introduced to the meeting by Major Bohan.Mr. Marks. referring to his past businesscareer, wherein he has always consulted theinterest of those depending upon nim, said.that he would make no promise, but wouldwork in theointerest of reform, which cannot beatcomplished in a day. "I am sure," he con-tinued. "that the Democratic Legislature, com-posed of honest and upright men, consciousof their duties towards an overburdenedcommunity, will pass measures of reform andjustice. I believe that the bondholders mustalso be made to bear a little of the burdens of thepeople. About the duties of my office. you allknow that I am hampered by restrictive laws,It will be my earnest endeavors to call the at-tention of the Legislature to the fact that theproperty in New Orleans is assessessed $100.000,00taxes. while in the whole State it is only $,00ooo.-000oo. It is evident that the disproportion mustbe done away with.

Assessments ought to be made lower, andproperty assessed to its legitimate value.

The speaker next denounced the Nationalparty and the Property Holders' Association.The latter, said he. is composed of probablysixty men. and are the property holders of thewhole city. The president himself has no prop-erty to speak of.

The Citizens' Association, I am sorry to state.may create a split in our party. Several of thosevery men have admitted to me. after all. thatthe Democratic ticket was better than theirs.Tho-e pretended reformers n ever exposed theirgrievances before the Odd Fellows' Hall con-vention, but held aloof until all was over, andthen made up a ticket against us.

MIR. JOHN FITZPATRICK,candidate for Criminal Sheriff, next spokein hisaccustomed forcible style, and concluded by ex-

h"rting his hearers to vote the solid, straightI)omocratlc ticket.

Mr. Davn Moise was called upon and, in hisusual happy style, entertained the meeting fora short time.

Mr. Mahoney, it man of the people, sunceededMr. Molns antal mdle rau address which, as hesaid, "slowed that he was not , t polticalspeaker, but a iplaln man with a good deal ofhorse nsense."

Mr. Isancson. the nominee for Administratorof Finaneo, said: "We all go into o0tlle undermost ullavorable circullstn ces, with It citydeobt of s2o,oos.co, an unpaid corps of employe's,and the revenues of the city already sold. Wearer anxious, if it Is in the city's vower. to settleall debts we regard all alike, and we are rep-resentatives of thie Democratic party.

I refused some time ago to sign tihe call of tih•Citizens' Assoclation when requestoed to do soby a comtniitoee of gentlemen. bonainse I toldthorn that as a nmember of the Htat Orntrarl (Comittee it would be very indlolliate one my part, tocoutmtonance a movement which t cold aftrr-wards assume other Vroportions. I am gladthat I did not slgn,

When Mr. Isaacson had concluderd, the moot-ing adjourned.

GEN. PATTON'S LETTER.

To the Editor of the Democrat:There seaom to Ire agreot deal of surrprise

evlneod at the action of Col. Patton in declinuigI he indorsement of tie Cltiszons' Conservativeparty.

It may prove an impolitic action. It is true.but I think it is the only thing under the rir.culmstanc•s that the gentlerman could have doneconsistently witI his prlinipolos in a Democrat,

Ito is a member of the 8tate Central Demo-cratic and Conservative Committee, and anominee of that party, and yet is now expectedto abandon his party principles and the allogi-aneo he owes to thant party.Butl the objection Is raiserl, "that Col. Patton

refuses the vote of the (!Uon.eratires, becriause hedeclinosltheir lidosrement."

Not at all. fiH is the nominee and exponentof the Democratic and ('o4rrtrvatier otemllrnt.and ias sucrh in alroneady the candnidhttl of thosevery ten, i f thery tire, as they say, (;onrsrvatives.Thornfore, tiny subrsetuent irndorsement issuneriluonts.

Now, If tirhe (flt,enrz ' Conservative party hassoon proper to make another t(icket and indorsehis nomination on the Denmoeratic-Conserva.-tive ticket, that is tall very well : but when he lpcalled lupon to ar'ntpot or deollin that Indorse-mont, s comnllg from a politiatrl organizatloniwhich 1s onposed to thl;Dr)lmnoratitr-Conserva -tive parnty I talte it that he is In duty bound todellnre. in other words, he is obliged to sup-port In toto tihe palrty that.t Rupport) s hiln, andtwhlos•r Ilntlnation hri ar!certs, to thie exctRlusionIof all other partise.
