Chim, Sfard of Audit Finance. There has bn mu talk of killin? the dog who bit Mr. A. J. McNair in IT V;t,, y " Messrs. Adrian & Yollers yard, a 'few days since. This is folly ; the dog ia a fAithfal afetl: ral !e&;mal, and was but guarding his trust when the attack ifaimade. This is Mr. McNair's state iseat, andba tfewhssmd so do we, that it would be wrong to kill the dog. Bard of A'drsnn. The Boar4 of Aldermen met in called session yesterday afternoon. The Mayor stated that he had called the meeting for the purpose of appoiaf ing Registrars and Inspectors of the City Election to be held on the fourth Thirsday in March next, and presented a letter from the City Attorney relativo thereto. - - Alderman Bo wden offered the follow ing resolution, which was adopUd: Resolved. - That the appointment of Registrars and Inspectors of the muni cipal election on Thursday, the 24th of March: be . made by the Mayor, who 8hall: consult with the members of this Beard from the several wards. Alderman. Myers offered the following, which was adopted. - Resolved. That registration books be opened in the several wards of the city at ench places as may be hereafter des ignated, on Monday, the 7th of Marsh, at 0 A. 11.. and to be open daily, Sun days excepted, until 6 P. M., to March 23d, inclasive. Alderman Foster offered the following, which waiadepted: Be t ordained by the Mayor and Board of Aldermen of the city of Wil mington, That no ordinance heretofore passed haa heretofore or shall hereafter be construed, to : prevent the owners or driversO of carts or . wagons containing country .produce, fish, or oyatera brought to the city for sale, oing from house to house in any part of the city at any hours of the day for the purpose of sell ing or esliverrng the same. This ordin ance shall take effect at once. Mr. Norwood Giles, chairman of the Board of Audit ond Finance, came before the Board to endeaTor to make abont the amount of some ar rangement abont the amount of bonds it wonld be necessary for the Board to 18- sue to meet these falling due in 1882. Alderman Foster offered the following, which was adopted: R?nolved, That the committee on Finance confer with theBoard ot Audit and Finance, and agree ipon a bill ask ing of the Legislature permission to issue a sufScient amount ef bonds to meet the bonds coming die in the year 1882, the ( same to be exchanged at not less than par. . An oil Imp was ordered for Macnm. ber's alley. .The Board then adjourned. Joint iieeUDg. A joint meeting of the Ficance Com mittee of the Board of Aldermen and a Committee from Board of Audit aad Fi nance was held at the City Ball this forenoon. The Mayor read the following in re ply to statement made by Mr. Norwood Giles, Chairman of the Beard of Audit and Finance: 1 deem it proper in justice to myself to reply ta the statement of Mr. Giles, Chairman Board of Audit and F nance, because the purport of bis statement is, it seems to me, to create an impression that the ezftnses of the city have been increased drying my term of oEce. Ca investigation ef the figures and what has been accomplished will show th t such is not the case and therefore I can see ne reason why such an impression should be attempted to be created. The average expense of my administra tien according to the figures of Mr. Giles was less than $50,000 and when the tax payers take into consideration what aa tmrnense reduction this was te admin istrations before the present Board o! f Aldermen, and when they take into consideration also the , amount that has been accomplished by this Board, it does not seem to me possible that there can be any murmur against the present ex-1 peases of the city. In regard to providing for bonds ma turing 1882, 1 reiterate my statement ef February 14th, and can see no necessity fer asking the Legislature to give us the power to issue more than $65,000 Mr. Giles agrees with me that $72,000 is what is needed. Without any redustioa of the debt by then, and (the probabili ties. are that the debt will be materially redneed) I certainly am opposed to an increase of the city debt "which this pow er of issuing more bonds than is, neces sary, may lead to- - . . ' ,:; j ate reasons set fcrth by Mr. Giles for irzi?? bzjeed CC5,C??tra tsjaoira esd have been unheard of heretofore in this city. . To prepare for an unexpected epidem ic by issuing bonds. The idea. This is one way of preparing for an epi demic that .may not take place, that far surpasses any financial operation that the tax payers have yet been called upon to endure. . In regard to tlm increase spoken of by Mr. Giles in the Fire and Sanitary De- i J'JJi ithin one j year it will be no increase, but a decrease those departments;.- for whon the water works are in full operation, which la a powerful steam-engine in itself.Iamof the opinion, that as ia other cities, the steam engines caa de dispensed with and hand engines located on tbo Outskirts of the city. In regard to the reduction of the city debt Mr. Giles does not in the aggregate add $10,000 of bonds declared illegal since my election and which was part of thejdebtwhen I went'into'oficejbit never thefess and notwithstanding Jit is a part ef the reduction of the.debt and should be so credited. , Yours, very respectfully, 8. IT. Fisiiblatb, Major. The Mayor stated that he would agree to the act as proposed by the Board of Audit and Finance provided the folh i ing'was embodied in the act: - "It shall be the duty of the Mavor and the Chairman ef the Board -of -Audit and Finance within 3 months from the time when the said bonded debt shall be landed in accordance with this act (the act contemplated for funding the debt) to conjointly destroy all the bonds issued under this act which have not been used for the specific purposes of this act. This was agreed to, when the Mayor withdrew any further objections to the bill Fire this Morning. The alarm ef fire this morning, about 2 o'clock, was caused by the burning of a eouple ef small frame houses next to the corner of Sixth and Church streets. The fire originated in a house owned 'by Sylvester Capps, colored, and seon spread te the house adjoining, occupied by a colored family and owned by George W. Price. By hard work the Sec- end Baptist Church, of which the Rct Jos. P. King is pastor, was saved from the devouring element. The origin of the fire is supposed to be incendiary. Capps had no insurance; Price's was in sured for $450. The alarm about 4.30 o'clock this morning was caused by the breaking out afresh of the fire spoken of above. niEn. BOWDEN In this city, this 'A.
