Street Mum bers.

A year or two ago, much to the satlsfac-
ton of those having business with our clti-
zens, the houses were numbered. This was
Acknowledged, on all sides, to lie 40 Improve
ment and it has been a great convenience to
many. Unfortunately, however, the Law
which provided for numbering, was tempo
rary in its character, and after encountering
a considerable expense in fulfilling its prev:
sions, We are likely to lose in time all the
benefits it conferred.
When new houses are erected, there is
now DO one authorized to number them, nor
do the owners, il anxious to have the num-
bers know where to procure them. Again,
when doors are painted, the numbers are
sometimes not replaced at ALL and, some
times, arranged improperly; for example.
the house OF friend of the writer which
was properly No. 40, on certain street, be-
came suddenly, to his 20 small surprise,
No. Ga
Now, it is respectfully suggested to the
City Council, that the duty of keeping up
the NUN bering, could be deVClved upon some
officer OF the Corporation; the Superinten-
dent of Police, perhaps, would be the most
appropriate.
Let him keep on hand a supply Of num-
bers, and require every person under pen
atty t. number his house properly, and keep
1t numbered. IL something OF tie sort Is
net done, the expenditure imposed or our
citizens year or two since, will have been
worse than useless. ClNlS.

Coarseness In Congress.

We have witnessed several OF these pro-
tracted night sessions of Congress, In which
somewhat similar scenes occurred. From
the manner in which they are usually
conducted, members speaking against time,
absurd propositions mad", calling yeas and
nays, motions to adjourn multiplied. and a
thousand other things, net only vexatlous
but silly, be are scarcely surprised that
members become excited, losing their self
respect, aud appreciation Of appropriate
language, forgetting that the country's repu-
tatiun, more important than their own, Is
at stake Tue press may read moral les
sons against such procedure, and wise men
endeayor 20 teach better behavior, but the
sure corrective lies with the people. Let
