THE CITY ADDITION.

i will be seen by the ordinance which We
published yesterday that the district recently
attached to the City by all act Of the Legisla.
ture, is divided into two wards for present pur-
poses, with the intention, no doubt, of having it
subdivided at some future time 1t will be seen
too, by this ordinance that the section line which
divides the City is made the boundary between
the north and sout districts or wards, and that
the citizens residing in these wards are expected
to olect two Aldermen for each, on the first
Monday Of April, according to the second Sec
ton. We understand that this section
line presses from the main channel of the Mis-.
sissip,Ipi, through Booths steam saw Min, lenv-
ing the dwellings, Of Mr.. P. A. Lorimier, Genl.
jones, Thomas Cot,or, and P. QuigIey in the
south ward, and we presume thd. each citizen
can easily determine for himself which ward he
resides in. Anderson's map Of the mineral lands
third SECTION of The Ordinance provides that the
election for these wards shall be held at the
Toll house on the Plank Road, and at the house
of John Wilde.
After the neyt election our City Council
will consist of len Aldermen and Mayor. We
hope our Democratic friends are looking around
for their bes. men, and we wish them to bear
in mind that the business Of this City will be
no childrens play in future. Men Of sound
mind and PRACTICAL business hsbiss should be
elected, and plenty Of sucn men can be found
in the Denocra,c ranks. convention will
be called in due time, no doubt, to make nomi-
nations

In the Michigan Legislature some members

That's right, reform is acknowledgements

luxury and ex.ravagance which pervades the
land, let the rascals be put upon diet of 'bread

1t is strange idea indeed, that in this enlight-
ened age and in this free and liberal country,
where there are SO many wise teachers, men
should be allowed to do as they please. Why,
you might as well say, that man has right to
eat wher hungry, lie down when faiigued, rise
when rested, hunt fire when cold, shelter when
wet, or do any other act of his own free will,
as to claim that he has right TO drink whiskey.
The idea is SO perfectly preposserous, that he
who harbors It, should not escape the confines Of
an asylum.

TO THE PUBLIC.

Mr.. WILLIAM D. WALES requests us to
publish the following paragraph from Mr.
Hewtt's last communication, and SO far as he
is made party to its contents, to say, that it is
false:
Why does not Mr.. Anderson specify which
!" MIR. NAPLES" he refers to! Mr.. Peter Wa
pies, and also Mr. Robert NAPLES are both alb
sent at this time, and MIR. William NAPLES says
that he never sold scrip to Anderson, nor does
he think that either Peter or Robt did, and his
opportunities of knowing are good, as he was
clerk in the store Of Peter and Robert during
the time referred to. This statement is confirm
ed by Mr.. George w. Burton, who was also a
clerk ia the same establishment for the same
period.
Mr.. GEO. w. BURTON, desires us to say, that
when interrogated by Mr.. Hewitt, upon the
subject of A. D. Anderson s scrip dealings, he
replied that he knew nothing about it.
Mr.. Burton also desires US to say, that upor
more mature reflection, he has an indstnct re
collection of Mr.. Zirke having made pretty
large transaction with Mr.. Anderson in City
scrip about The time referred to.

THE STATE PRINTINo.-The last Legislature
cut down prices Of State printing some what, but
left them still extravagantly high. During the
last four years, We presume that the State prn-
ters of Iowa have cleared about fifteen thousand
dollars upon the State printing, and 1t is not to
be wondered at that the editor of the Dispatch
should complain that his s.sufferings Is intoler-
able" in view of the late economical freak of
the Legislature. Rather than he should be
made martyr Of, we will give him fifty per cent
Of the profits and do the work ourself.- -Taltey
Whig.
Ii is strange what infatuation, at times, seizes
upon the minds of people, editors not excepted.
We have no idea that the editors OF the Wing
believe that there has been fifteen thousand dol.
lars made out of the state printing within the
past four years and we should dislike to believe
them so entirely ignorant of their business, as
to credit them for sincerity, when they declare
that they would take the printing at reduction
Of fifty per cent from the present prices. 1t
would beggar them 10 do the work at what they
propose and we are inclined to think they are as
well aware Of it as we are.
