The Canal Street Opening and Mr.. Erben.

In a communication 70 the Board OF Aldermen Mr..
Couover states that some three years ago | was erro-
neously overpaid $4,000 by the Comptroller for damages
to my property, caused by the extension Of Canal street.
He says the mistake arose by adding the amount Of mort
gage held by the Life and Trust Company to the amount
awarded by the Commissioners, instead Of substracting il.
/ had not the slightest idea that a mistake or any, had
been made by the Comptroller, or that ! had received any
more than / wa entitled TO. The Comptroller's warrant
or check was made payable TO the order of David Thomp-
son, ESQ, President OF the Life and Trust Company, and
was received by him. Mr.. Thompson deducted the
pany, and handed me the difference. MY impression is
II there has been an error-it arose from the Comptroller
clerk not deducting from the award for damages what was
charged for benefit on my property on the line Of the new
street. No doubt the committee, to whom the subject
WA referred, will ascertain how the matter stands: and II
more money was paid than should have been, 1t will be
refunded 10 the Comptroller with interest.

Eg- 1t is not merely by speaking
to children about spiritual things that
you win them over if that be all yor
do, it will accomplish nothing, less
than nothing. 1t is the sentiments
which they hear at home, it is the
maxims which rule your daily con
duct, helikings and disliNings which
you express; the whole regulation
of the household in dress, and food
and furniture the recreations you in
dulge, the company you keep, the
style Of your reading, the whole com
plexion Of daily life--this creates
the element in which your children
are either growing in grace, and pre-
pairing for an eternity of glory, Of
they are learning to live without God
and to die without hope.

enable you to stir your blood Fly
around and tear your jacket rather
than be passive recipients Of the "old

the dandy at dads expense, hire your
self out to some potato patch--let
yourself to stop hog holes, or watch
the bars; and when you think your
self entitled to a resting SPELL. do it
on your own hook.
Get up inthe morning-turn round
at least twice before breakfast-help
the old gentleman-give him now and
then generous lift in business-learn
how to take the lead, and not depend
forever on being led and you have
no idea how the discipline will bene.
fit you. DO this-and our word fol
it, you will seem to breathe a new
atmosphere, possess new frame,
tread a new earth, wake new desti-
ny and then you may begin to as

ring from your little finger, break
your cane, shave your upper lip, wipe
your nose, held up your head, and by
no means never again eat the bread
of idleness, nor depend on father.
