While waiting for a quorum of mem bers of the Joint Board yesterday after noon, W. R. Fenniman moved that Atkin street be paved and bridged. Tben W. B. Gwyn moyed for a committee to dis cover Atkin street, all of which was, of course appreciated by Advisor Hunt, who lives on Atkin street. When a quorum manifested its presence, there were present Mayor Blanton, Al dermen Waddcll, Buird, Starnes and Mc Dowill; Advisors Miller, Green Hunt and Cummings. Advisor Miller moved that, on ac count of the small attendance of citizens. the meeting be postponed to Fridav. This was opposed 'by Alderman Starnes, who said sufficient notice bad been Riven iu The Citizen and everybody wbo wanted to had a chance to come to the meeting. YV. ti. Uwvn suggested 1 hursday, as the Board usually had a great deal to do Fridays, but Mr. Miller's motion pre vailed. It would not have done so. how ever, had not Mayor Blanton untied the vote in favor of a postponement. " ASHUtiirl," Havs tbe Havor. When the Joint Board had adjourned Mayor Blanton asked the Aldermen to come to order. Mr. Waddcll, however. put on his mackintosh, grabbed bis urn brella and hurried out. with a remark that he was sick, but had come to the meeting any wav, and citizens were not anv better than he was. 1 his trf ctured the quorum, but pres ently Alderman Leonard came tn, and Mayor Blanton stated his business without the formality of calling the meeting to order. He then stated that the Board, together with several others, had been appointed to draft a bill including the suggestions adopted by the citizens' mass meeting. "I naturally feci," he said, a considerable pride in the bill, as a large portion of the sugges tions adopted were mine. Today Mr. Murphy, chairman of the mass meeting who assumed to take charge of tbe mat ter, showed me the bill, and I asked him to bring it here this afternoon, or, in case he should not, to give it to me and let me lay it before vou. The latter he would not do, and he is not beie. I think the bill is wrong in several in stances not what the meeting author ized. There are some things which we should recommend to the Legislature for passage. We can recommend them, whether we get them or not." Alderman Starnes said on this subject that if Mr. Murphy did not submit the bill the Board should kick and endeavor to keep the bill from being made a law. Then the members left, after having been advised by the Mayor to be on the watchout, as he might call a special meeting soon, if he could get the bill, la tliu Board "Obstructive. 7" The Citizen asked J. D. Murphy, esq., for a statement with regard to the bill and the remarks of Mayor Blanton. Mr. Murphv said : ' I published a cull in The Citizen for a meeting of the committee on Mondav morning at 10 o'clock. At that hour Judge H. B. Carter and myself went to the Mayor s othce and found nobody th.rc, excepting Alderman Starnes Not long thereafter Aldermen Starnes and Leonard came to my office and Mr. Starnes suggested that a meet ing be held at 4 o'clock Monday. Shortly alter this Mayor Blanton came tn and 1 handed him the bill. He soon returned it to me and tben it was agreed that tbe committee would meet at It) o clock Tuesday (yesterday.) I went to the place oi meeting on the Dour and re mained there some time, but neither the Mayor nor the members of the Board appeared. "The bill was then sent to Buncombe's representatives in the Legislature. Ac companyiug the bill was a complete re port of every meeting held by tbe citizens and a copy of the call, taken from The Citizen. "A portion of the bill was drawn by mysell, while another portion was drawn by E. I). Carter, assisted by Drs. M. H. Fletcher and L. B. McBrayer. This portion related to the Board of Health, and was submitted to the Bun combe county Medical society by Dr, Fletcher and approved." A copy of the bill has been lelt at T. HE Citizen office by Mr. Murphy and can be seen by anyone interested. To Meet Tomorrow. E. D. Carter, one of the framers of the bill, will meet the Mayor and Board of Aldermen tomorrow in the Mayor's office, city hall, at 1 1 o'clock a. m. All members are requested to attenl.

The House got into a dead lock yesterday afternoon over the car coupler bill and remained in session till this morn'ng. Towards tbe small hours Mr. Allen, of Miss., made one of his characteristic speeches, mainly directed towards the occupant of the chair (Bailey of Texas.) It was in his best vein, but at the same time excited so much resentment that subsequently Mr. Crain moved that it be expunged from the record; but objection was made. Then Mr. Crain asked unanimous con sent that all proceedings of the night relating to excuses, be expunged from the record. To this Mr. Tracey of N. Y., objected. Finally, at 6:30 o'clock, the House adjourned. Not more than two dozen members were in attendance when the House met this morning. On motion of Mr. Jones, of Virginia, the Senate bill was passed appropriat ing $11,000 (out of appriations hereto fore made) for the construction of a wharf by which access can be had to the monument designating the birth place of George Washington. Mr. Hatch, champion of the anti option bill, then started a warfare ngainst the appropriation bills, antag onizing with his measure the postofKce appropriation bill. The postoffice appropriation bill scored a victory over the anti option bill, the motion to consider the former being car ried by more than two-thirds vote. The postoffice appropriation passed witn the special mail facilities appropria- lon included in it. Mr. Peel, with the ndian appropriation bill, and Mr. Hatch with the anti-option bill then sought recognition. On a rising vote Peel won GRANT'S PHARMACY.
