Woodward avenue which lies letween Grand River street and Jcflerson avenue is a portion of this route That he was of opinion that the Council can now give authority to build a railway on and through Grand River street from the western: ferson avenue Adopted rom the Clerk of the Court that the jury in the matter of opening widen ing and extending i Congress street had filed their 'report Accepted

signation as constable of the Sth Ward Ac cepted and William Haley appointed in his place rom the Superintendent of Police that Scrgt Booth had been appointed to attend the meeting of the Council to act in the place of the Marshal and'deputy Aid ield moved that the communication be accepted and that the President Clerk and other city officers be directed to employ the Sergeant of the Metropolitan Police for all duties heretofore performed by the late Marshal and Deputy Marshal Aid Purcell thought the City Council occu pied a very distinguished position in this mat ter Three or four men had condescended to send them an officer over whom they had no control If he was sent for they had no power to restrain him He believed that when peo ple returned to their sober senses they would hurl this force back whence it came as should be done by all such acts so ty rannical He spoke of the employment of three or four po licemen at Campbell store while in the outskirts of the city not one could be found Aid Elwood said that the act organizing the force was the law of the land and would be en forced He thought the force was too exten sive and expensive for a city as quiet and order ly as this Outside the centre of the city the population was as quiet and orderly as any in a country village In the centre it was neces sary to see that saloons and other places were properly kept He could with a few proper of ficers have kept the city as quiet and oiderly as it is at present provided they performed their duty But the Marshal and Deputy had not done their duty although they anew is wen Scarcely one drayman in ten held a license and it was the same with hackman and others re quiring license'iHe was astonished to see the number who had come up to procure li censes when necessity compelled them to do so The force is popular now but when individual expense came to be calculated there would be a different feeling It required a very strong pressure to induce the Chief Exec utive to sign the bill depriving the people of Detroit of the right to govern themselves which is a constitutional right With regard to the offices of City Marshal and Deputy he thought it beyond doubt that they did not now exist Thor City Counselor had so rendered his opinion and it was our duty to obey the law until it was otherwise determined by the Supreme Court Aid Weir had doubts about the constitution ality of the law and he did not feel himself bound to obey it unless compelled He thought the resolution should be sent back After a lengthydebate the previous ques tion was called for by Aid McGinnis and sus tained The vote recurring on the resolution it was lost on a vote of seven to rom the President of the Board of Health that he had notified tne Superintendent of Po lice of a nuisance in an alley between Randolph and Brush and between Jeffersen avenue and Larned street and also at other places and yet these nuisances exist The Marshal and his Assistant wewheretofore prompt and energet ic in abating these nuisances The report in troduced a resolution that the Superintendent report why these nuisances have not been aba Lost A i On motion of Aid Weir a resolution

Stir Early Abroad in Town The President Ordered a Suspension of the Sale of Rebel Lands for Taxes rom the same directing the same officer to abate a nuisance in the vicinity of Creek Aid Purcell contended that the Council had no authority over the police force They might pile up resolution after resolution and that is all the good it would dot The Superin tendent might occupy the position of the Mar shal but he was under the control of the Board of Commissioners not the Council A motion was made to substitute the City Marshal for the Superintendent of Police was lost The report was also lost? i rom the same that the Superintendent Of Police cause the boards erected on the Campius Martins to be taken down and prevent the erection of others at any future time Lost Resolutions By Aid Bond that the Con troller advertise for proposals for the publica tion of a synopsis of the Council proceedings in German and such other printing as is usual in that language Laid over By the same That as many conflicting opin ions exjst in the Council and among citizens as to the constitutionality of the Metropolitan Police law the City Counsellor and Attorney and Committee on Judiciary are

Borger Employe car Collected by Capt Ira Dav la Total! Those who have lived in large cities like London Paris or New "York and have hap pened to return late at night or as the case may be very early in the morning from some ball or unreasonably protracted supper party must often have noticed the existence of a cer tain strange shadowy life amidst the prevailing repose While the world still rests its huge head on the pillow and a profound silence in dicates that sleep reigns supreme in the desert ed squares and streets and the gas lamps glare discontentedly as if they too were tired of shining all night nothing breaks the quiet save perhaps the heavy tramp of a sentinel the measured step of the policemen or the dull rumbling sound of some omnibus or hack re turning from one of the distant railway sta tions But by and by along tbe principal streets leading from the country into town and from the depots wagons and carts laden with produce vegetables poultry meat butter eggs fruit in season flowers in large odiferous bunches strawberries and whatever else the insatiate man of a large city consumes during the ensuing day roll slowly towards the rioiis market places All these articles brought in under the vail of darkness and loaded at certain points which thereupon mediately begin to show signs of a strong and animation The small and shops which always abound in neighbor hoods of this kind are opened and a throng of spectral forms who sway to and fro in the un certain flicker of the lamps springs suddenly out of the ground The points which present such a striking picture are the markets rom the surrounding buildings' stray gleams of light fall tqion the heaving human crowd in the squares and a low humming noise arises that soon swells into a distinct but subdued roar which may he distinguished even in the adjoin ing streets where it often interferes with the dreams of many a light bleeper This continues through the dimness of the waning summer night and the warmer and pleasanter the air the clearer and more cheer ful the moon or the stars look down the more marked becomes this nocturnal commotion At limes perfect tranquility reigns and the tall houses which enclose the square frown darkly upon the scene then the hubhub of the voices rises once more in confusion horses neigh and snort dogs bark calves bleat and imprisoned geese ducks and fowl uttr sounds of lament It is a perfect Sabbath and like it the first crowing of the cock gives the signal for a general scattering and again a profound repose settles over the city The heavens now grow brighter in the east the freshening air announces the coining day the stars wax pale and when the last faint shades of night have disappeared and the gray twi light has passed into the bright and cheerful light of a balmy June morning we descry in huge piles of vegetables and produce the handiwork of those children of darkness stalls lately a desolate range of naked beams and rusty hooks now redden with fresh joints festooned by green branches vegetable and fruit stands artistically arrayed with the scarlet of the radishes gleaming through their foliage young onions swelling out snowy and transparent from long emerald stalks turnips taken fresh and juicy irom their brown beds lettuce its heads tipped witii crisp greenish gold black green spinach water cresses and other esculants all moist with pearly dew or wet with crystal water drops combine to delight the eye witnessed in the City of the Straits whose peo ple are opposed to early rising It is therefore not until the house doors are opening and sleepy maid servants step forth to sweep the steps and sidew alks that pater and muter Jamllias are ready to go marketing Carters and hackney coachmen who have to harness up betimes generally drive already rapidly in the direction of the wharves and railway depots before tbe current of house keepers with baskets sets steadily marketward Even then though the pure ether hanging over the gables and the clear blue sky seen be tween the roof as well as the damp pavement give promise of a lovely day the city still re mains quiet With tbe exception of those who are abroad to cater for their daily wants there are so few people astir one can distinctly hear the bang of a door sev eral blocks off and the echo of distant footsteps passing dow the street Those who went late to bed on the previous night keep even at this advanced hour their
