ne NV ARRANGEMENT OF THE VANS.
In another column will be found the proclama-
lion of the Mayor for holding the coming cleo
,ons IN this city in conformity with the new
Hvsion of the wards, the City Counsellor, as
viii be seen by the following letter, having gi-
ven his opinion that the legislative act referred
10 is legal and binding:
BALTIMORE, September ), ls45.
Hon. JACOB G. Dawes,
Mayor ofthe City Of Baltimore:
DEAR SR-l have received your communi-
alton OF the LIST inst. in which you request my
pinlon as to the Constitutionality and binding
obligation upon the City of Baltimore, of the
various provisions of an Act ofAsscmby, passed
March II, 1915, entitled "An Act to provide
or the division ofthe City of Baltimore into 90
wards, and for other purposes"
am aware that there has been some diversi-
" of opinion expressed respecting the legality
IT some of the enaClments OF said Law, more
particularly as to the alteration of the tenure of
The Second Branch of the City Council, but
cannot entertain doubt that the Charter of the
City of Baltimore, being the creation of public
Corporation, for public purposes, is subject to
INV modification, alteration or repeal by the
Legislature ofthe State.
In view Of this principle, | can discover no
objection to the act in question.
Respectfully, your obdt serv't,
BENZ. c. PRESSTMAN,
Counsellor for Civ of baltimore

more TO give 4 Grand Ltvee at Odd Fellows
Hall on the evening Of the 18th inst, the sec
end era that tried mems souls, to the represent
'stives TO the Grand Lodge OF the u. States
The plan of procedure and preparation is the
most extensive ever lad in this city, and will
give unusual satisfaction, if we may Judge by
The ability Of those named as managers, some
Of whom recollcct to have seen at the Levce
aeld at Boston in June last. If the proverbial
iact al Baltimore improving i'll every thing
.hey have seen be carried out in this instance,
L must be something very fine indeed, as the
HrStnnians are said to be unsurpassed in accom-
Plishing what they attempt in mastery man
ler. The number Of tickets being limited, and
he extremely low price at which they are held
considering every thing after the ticket is paid
Tor Is gratutous) will prevent any inconveni-
enCe from the house being crowded, and at the
-ane tine places it within the reach of every
ne &c purchase ticket. The note of prepa
yaucn i aicad2 hcard-the spacious yard is
being fporcd over and sheltered from the wea-
her Ivy an awning;-to this is to be added eve
~ variety Of coofcd lights, which will lend an
-speCt of cnChautmcnt to the scene never be-
lore seen in Baltimore. Nor is this all--thc
splendid Saloon and connections Lodge rooms,
with their rich decorations, Will be thrown open
toE the accommodation Of the company. This
If Itself is sufficient, without the grand array
a confectionery, Sc. which will grace the Ics-
1--WE board. II addition TO all these attractions,
Tie Levoe will be honorod BY the members Of
lie G. L, U. 6. representing the different States
ind Territories of the Inl2H, with their spch-
did regalia: this, with the rich regaIla OF our
own members, will add lustre t. the scene
which cannot be equaIled, much less surpassed;
The ladies will be there i'll great numbers, and
I have heard whispered in high circles that the
Gray of beauty which will grace Odd Fellows
Hall on that evening Will not be forgotten for
many years. l.

Of this new company is not only TO work the
