Catholic Church.
On Sunday the Reverend Fathor Miller,
pastor, preached after Maas. Tho his
tory of tho first period of Christianity iu
Croat Britain was p, iucipally tho thetuo.
The Reverend Fathor, as in tlio oustom
with the Priests of tha Catholic church,
preached without notes, and quoted au
thorities, and gave dates with an ncauracy
and ease that provod him to Im> not only a
oluse student of Christian hiatory, but
also tho possessor of a wonderful memory.
Ho claimed and adduced authority from
his side that the only Christians in Great
Britain in the first centuries, and for
many centuries after the time of Bt. Au
gustin, first Bishop of Canterbury, were
proud and hnppy iu their spiritual allc
gianco to the Boo of Bt. lVter nt Rome,
and their abhorrence of every dootrine
not coming to thorn through Christ’s vice
gerent was only equalled by their detes
tation of Arisnism. Tho various attempts
of “wicked men," Hum, and since to es
tablish new forms of faith were referrod
to, and the snoeesn of the Italy Roman
Catholic Church was explained by tho
promises of Christ, its founder, who said
lie would “roniain with it all days even
to tbs consummation of tho xvorld.”
At fonr in tho aftornoon tho children
assembled for instruction iu tbo cate
cbism, and at half-;>nat seven tho beauti
ful office of vespors und booodiciion woro
largely attended.

“Crops tro very good hero. I bsvo tho

(i. W. Brown, Kotj., Chairman Fire De
partment Committee:
Dear Bib: The “relief valve” ordered
for use of steamer No. 5 has been tested
on Bovural occasions, and, in my opinion,
will be of groat sorvioe to the steamer, be.
sides saving a great deal of property from
damage by water. I wonld respecotfnlly
ask tuot year committee make the neces
sary reoommondatioQ to Couuoil looking
to tho payment for same.
I wonld hIbo call your attention to the
fact that the hose in use by oar steamers
is inadequate and is fast giving away,
and would respectfully ask your recom
mendation for the purchase of at least
1,000 feel os good leather hose, as from
past experience they are the best and on
ly hose that is suited to this climate. As
will be scan from my report of 1874, it
was hoped that thia onllay would be
avoided aud wa would be able to bridge
over the preeeut year without the pur
chase of more; bat from the experience
at late fires it has beoome evident that
more hose must be purohashed, and that
it would bo a suioidal policy to delay the
purchase longer.
Hoping that all of the above will meet
with a favusable consideration, I am
Vary respectfully.
Your obedient servant,
W. H. William*,
Chief E agin ear
The committee recommend tha pur
chase of fir* hundred fast of bather nose.

Recommendation waa adoptdd and

Clerk of Superior Court preeented a

legal advice os to whether it would pay to

The clerk was authorized to givo no
tice that executions wonld at once be
issuod against delinquent tax-payers, ex
cepting those who hod petitioned for a
reduction of assansment.
TUB SALARY OF THE LATE MARSHAL MUBFHT.
The Mayor called tho attention of the
Counoil to the fact that, under tho verbal
authorization of Council, ho had issued
warrants for the payment to the widow of
the lato Marshal M. W, Murphy, who was
killed in the streets of Colnmbus whilo
in the performance of his duty. He de
sired to know tho w ill of Counoil regnrd.
ing tho matter, aa he had heard some
complaints on the streets.
Aldormon Blanchard, Jordan, Brannon,
Brown, Curtis, atatod their reoolleolion
accorded with that of tha Mayor—that a
majority of the members had authorized
the pnyment of the salary to the widow.
Alderman Andrews stated this was also
his recollection, but while ho authorized
tho nction, bo wns not aware a subscrip
tion would bo taken up. The Mayor waa
fully authorized to do what he had done.
Aldormnn Jordan stated, to make recol
lection cortain, ho would eall attention to
tho fact that the Police Committee, with
tho viow of not increasing taxes, and
paying this^sidary, hod recommended,and
tboir notion was approved by Council,
that an eleolion should not be ordered for
Marshal.
Calling Alderman Blanehard (Mayor pro
tem) to the chair, Mayor Mcllhenny oame
on tho floor and stated that reasona
ble complaints of even a few oit
zeus should bo heeded by Couuoil. Im
mediately aftor Marshal Murphy's death,
both paper* and the entire community
desired the salary paid the widow. Coun
cil had given verbal directions to have it
Mono. Tho Treasurer had recognized the
warrants of the Mayor end paid tha
rnonoy oach month. There waa nothing
in tho minutes to justify it, Tho Treas
urer had been blameless. If Coanoil did
not authorize the payment of the money,
he (the Mayor) would pay the Treasurer
himself. He (the Mayor) had not exeed-
od his authority, for he knew that Coun
cil would legitimatize their verbal aetion,
whenever called on. If the aetion in ap
propriating the salary vfas right just after
Murphy's death, it is right now. The
contributions of citizens (some $1100) hod
enabled the widow, who was then nnablo
to work, and her aged mother to obtain a
home, purchased with the aid of Col.
Salisbury. The monthly salary had en
abled them .to live. The Marshal is an
elcotive officer. If he remains sick his
entire term his salary cannot be lessened
or docked. If ho is killed in the dis
charge of his duty oannot hie heirs sne
the city for it ? In this oaae there wonld
be no suit. Tho lady was grateful for
what had been done.
Alderman Blanchard offered the follow,
ing which was unanimously adopted :
Whereas; upon the death of Marshal
Murphy it was informly resolved that
the salary which was to be paid him,
should bo paid to his widow, and farther,
that to meet this expenditure, there
should be no elootion for City Marshal
fox this year; be it therefore resolved,
that tho sum approbated aa a salary for
the aforesaid marshal bo ordered paid to
his widow for the period of eight months.
Alderman llraunon desired an ordinance
passod giving tho families of officers killed
in tha diachargo of duty, the ealariee of
said officers, for a certain length of
time.
Alderman Blanchard suggested Coun
cil could not bind its snocessore—only set
them a precedent. Tbs olamor was not
that of tho people—only some dema
gogues whose grumblings ho heeded no
more than vapor.
