ASSEMBLY DsrRIcIs-L LEGAL QuERY.-A doubt
has arisen in the minds Of some Of our city egis-
lators aud their law expouuders, as TO whether
parts OF different wards may be included in the
same districts.
1t is claimed by some that the wards possess all
the rights Of individuality which are enjoyed by
townships throughout the State, in fact that our
eighteen wards are virtually so many towns,
whose separate existence In the corporate Union,
whose reserved rights, are not TO be com promised
by submitting to any such mngling OF lnte res IS
must result from the disr citing Of the city iude-
pendent of,he ward boundaries. The question is
not yet settled but remains open for debate; and
meantime the disricting must stand in Vatu quo.
1t isto be hoped that the differences may be
settled soon, ss it is very desirable that the dis
tricting should be accomplished in some form or
other. 1t is not imperatiycly necessary to divide
the wards.

TYPOGRAPHICAL PLUMBERS.
BRAcToN.

Printers are very apt 10 follow the copy
closely, and will be sure to make all the ms
takes that you do, if they do not sprinkle in a
quantity OF their own. More especially is this
the case. when the writer garnshes his or her
contribution with words and phrases from 9TH
er languages than Her mslesiy's English
languages ofwhich the type-slcker, the proof
reader and editor, are all as Ignorant, as our
kitten Wonder is of Chadee. Hence the neces-
sity Of clothing such words and phrases in the
most distinct and leglble chirugraphy, if the
writer would avoid the modification OF being
made TO write most nonsensical French, Lat
in or German, as the case may be. Typo.
graphical errors are vexailons, We'll allow
The time has gone by when they could affect
us much, for we've been cruched so often that
like the old lady's eels, we are getting FUSED

and undmmed recollection, OF how we were
formerly wont TO vince under the reparation.
We remember the FIRST time we got flayed that
way, as il it was Yesterday. We had been
laying ourself out of an article which we hoped
was to create a stir, (ahl we mere green in
those days and big with the importance of
seeing our ideas in print, we walked majest-
cally INTO the office, seized copy OF the pa
per in which the article had that morning APP
peared settled ourself into chair, gave our
hair little more dignied stick up, and with
a most complacent smrk on our beardless lip,
commenced reading. Whew once, twice,
half dozen times had been murdered in the
course of single paragraph, and our Ire be-
gan 10 rise Here we had been made to talk
most superlatve nonsense; there we saw our
self say ing Just what we did not intend 10 say,
and here again a great deal more was put into
our mouth than we should even dare say
Twas more than we could endure-(time had
not then silvered our locks, and we were some
what hot headed 1--WE grew excessively red
in the face, while
"Each particular hair did stand on end,
Like quilts upon the fretful porcupine,"
and the big words came bubbng up our throa,
as warm and furious as The waters of the HOT
springs in Iceland. Finally, a, a most desper-
ate blunder, we bounded from our seat, kick
ed the chair into the corner Of the room,
knocked two galleys Of editorial into pi with
the poker, hurled coumn-rule at the com
positor's head. took the "dev!" by the nape
ofthe neck and damned his physiognomy in.

LOVES SMILE.

Lady, along the summer sky,
Two clouds are gently floating by
And Fer them morning sheds her light,
And breezes soft attend their flight
And both are bright, yet one, il seems,
Was born amid the rainbow beams.
Still floating in their azure home,
Together you may see them come
And now more bright their colors grow,
And now they wear a gentler glow,
As melting in the morning sun,
Those clouds are softly, sweetly one.
Lady, upon LIES changing sea
Two beings sail most merrily
And DER them pleasure wreathes her smile,
And Loves wing'd zephyrs blow the while,
And both are young, and one is fair,
As youth ethereal visions are.
Pursuing still their Joyous way,
Together now you see them stray;
And oh their eyes what raptures fill,
Their hearts what wild emotions thrill,
As smiling still in youth 8 bright sun,
Those spirits mingle into one
