The i left him, and he said he was watching them in Ito arrest them with the cotton in their posses, e Mayor asked him why he did not arrest u they made him the offer, and he said he Ito detect them in the act. He was fined ten laud dismissed the force as unworthy of his Wsighera of Hay, praying for an advance of the rate now charged for weighing hay to 12# centa per Alderman Gue favored granting the petition, and on hU motion, it m received and approved. A petition waa received from the Commissioners of Pilotage, pray ing that the aurplua of the Harbor Master’* fees be turned over to the Connniaaioneim of Pilotage, to be devoted to the improvement of the navigation of the river. It was referred to the Committee on Finance. The resignation of Thomas Holcombe as Port Warden was accepted, and the Mayor authorized to fill ths va cancy in the Board until an election could be held. Upon taking up new business, Alderman Gue offered a resolution to the effect that a special committee be appointed, consisting of the Mayor, three Aldermen and two citizens, to take into consideration the pro priety of establishing a new gas company. In offering this resolution, Alderman Gue ezpreat.l his determination to continue his fight against the Gas Company as long as he was a member of the Boai d o Aldermen. He had ofiered the resolution in earasst. The present condition of the gas lamps in the streets was an imposition on the citizens and a scandal hnd disgrace to the city. He had caused reports (o be made by the policemen of the number of lamps which the contract with the Gas Company requires to be lighted, not lighted on the nights between the lfith and 23d of December. The reports made showed that on the 13th of December 113 lamps were not lighted and on the 23d, 131; the number unlit on the nights between these dates averaging 100. This state of affairs still continued. It was high time that the city looked to the interests and benefit of the public. He had fought the Gas Company for the past twelve months, and he would fight It to the end of hi* term on the one principle that it does not fulfil iu contract with the oity. Alderman Johnson rose to Inquire if Mr. Gue had any idea of the enormous outlay that would be re quired to build new gas works, furnish new pipes and lay them throughout the city. He waa informed that the Gas Company was willing to sell out or to lease the works to the city. He was in favor of amending the resolution. It would be impossible to establish a new company at present. The city could more readily lease the works if it Is in earnest in this matter. Alderman Gue responded that he saw no reason for amending the resolution. It would be time to Inquire into the details of the expense after we had resolved to do something about the matter. Parties were ready to undertake the work if they should be Invited. He was in favor of effecting a change from the present condition of affairs if we had to light the streets with' kerosene lamps. Alderman Schley said he would not buy out the dilapidated works of the old Gas Company. It would be better to extend the patronage of the city to some new company. If this change is authorized, a new company will rise up and stimulate the Gas Com pany to a better performance of its duty. Alderman Schley dwelt at some length upon the evils of the pre sent unlighted state of the streets at night, and the perils to which the persons and property of the citi zens were exposed in consequence. The resolution of Alderman Gue was then adopted, and the Mayor appointed the following Special Com mittee: Aldermen Gue, Cunningham and Schley, and Messrs. Stoddard and Hunter, citizens. The presentments of the Grand Jury were then taken up and referred to the Committee on Gas. Law and Lovell, attorneys for the city, in its suit against the Central Railroad Company, Marine Bank Dr. Willis et. al., reported the decision of the case against the city in the Superior Court, and inquired whether it was desired to take it up to the Supreme Court. Alderman Gue moved that the report be received- and that no further action be taken, which was car, ried. The report of Chief Fireman Casey was presented. The report strongly recommends superceding the present Fire Department by the introductiSh of steam fire engines. Alderman Johnson spoke in favor of this measure, and the matter was referred to a special committee, consisting of Aldermen Lachlison, Johnson and Casey. ARRIVALS at thjc hotels. PULASKI HOUSE—W. H.

Hays—son of Dr. Isaac Hays, the distinguished physician of this city—which occurred on Tuesday last, bae caused a feeling of uni versal sorrow among all to whom the deceased was known, either in private life or life official relations. Mr. Hays graduated with honor at the University of Pennsylvania, in the year 1853 ; and, after spending the two succeeding years in the locomotive works of M. W. Baldwin A Co., went to Pittsburg in 1858, in the capacity of private secretary to Haskins Dupuy, Esq., President of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad Company. He remained there until Mr. Dupuy’s.reeignation, in 1860. When Mr. D., in that year, assumed the Presidency of the Catawigsa Rail road, Mr. Hays was appointed chiefclerk to the Super intendent of that road, Mr. Goodwin, which position he held until 1862, when began his connection with the Northern Central Railroad. “At the time of his death he occupied the position of Superintendent of a Division of the Northern Central Railroad Company—though, being the confidential as sistant of Mr. DoBarry, be waa in reality the Assistant Superintendent of the entire road. For this post his excellent abilities and acquirements In all matters per taining to the management of railroads peculiarly fit ted him. But his energies were overtasked, and the seeds of the fatal disease which brought him to the grave were too surely sown. Yet, like the faithful sen unel, he kept at hi9 post of duty until complete pbyai cal prostration compelled him to leave it. With diffi culty he reached his tether’s residence in this city, where, for two weeks, his devoted parents were hte faithful and tender nurses. At length death's icy hand touched bis warm heart, and on Friday teat all that vras mortal of him was laid to rest. ' ‘ Modest and unassuming in his deportment, diffident almiKst to a fault, ever gentle, kind and affectionate, his quiet virtues and genuine worth won the respect and attachment of all who met him as friends, or with whom he had official intercourse. In such high esteem was he held by the employees of the railroad company with whom be waa connected, and so much was he beloved by them that, when the sad tidings of his death reached Harrisburg, every engineer on the northern division craped his engine, while the clerks in the superintendent's office dressed their rooms in mourning drapery. ‘ * These tributes of respect to bis memory were purely voluntary and spontaneous; they were as earnest and sincere as they are unusual. ” These memorial lines are written, not in the spirit of eulogy, but in the hope that those to whom Mr. Hays was nearest and dearest, may, In the depth of their distress, gather some consolation, slight though it be, from the knowledge that there are many hearts beating with sympathy for them and with sorrow for the loss sustained by all. c. h. ■•Sunday Mebccby Office, Jan. 27, 1866.” J.
