A SoRAPs Yesterday morning

SEE TO YOUR LloENss.-A number Of
owners of wagons, drsys, carts and hacks were
before the Recorder yesterday, and fined, for fail
ing to call on the Chamberlain and procure the
necessary license for their vehicles. Others will
probably be called up to-day and now that the poe
lice have got the run of these vehicles, many more
will be required to pay dearly for neglecting to
square accounts with the city. When licenses arc
granted to public vehicles, the owners are CON-
PEELED to enter into bond aud security for the faith
fu, performance of their duties common carri~
ers, thus giving merchants some assurance that
their goods would hot be made way with BY th .
drivers; but when licenses are not obtained, mers
chants and others have no security, and for that
reason should be assured that the teams they en-
pioy, are legitimate public conveyances.
