Harper, the new Mayor, including also the proceed

We have little room fo1 any extended remarks
on the message Of Mr.. Harper. Itspeaks for itself
II is capital document, conceived in the right
spirit, and expressed in the proper tone, and is
marked throughout by a deep feeling of the great
responsibility devolved upon him in his new office.
The sentiments Of the several members of the Com

exactly with the tone, and principles and views Of
the new Mayor. They are precisely what we have

do much by judicieus, and at the same time ener-
getIc action, in the way OF removing many of the
incentives and opportunities Of drunkenness The

But we stop. The subject of city reform is so
great and comprehensive that we shall recur to il
