AHAA MAhhhF OkDiNANCE.-At TIC
meeting Of the City Council. tomorrow,
We presume that market ordinance-that
instrument which, in the language of Al.
derman Morley. smacks strongly of the Blue
Laws Of Connecticut, will be taken up and
passed upon. Let US admonish the MEM
bers Of the Council to think twice before
they vote afirmativsly upon 1t; let them
weigh we'll and consider thoroughly what
effect such vote will have upon this city.
If they consider that they have the auttori-
ty TO drive butchers to places that they
may dictate. they will most surely find out
ere long. that they are in grievous error
They can no more dictate to the butchers
than TO the dealers in any other commodity,
provided butchers do not allow their mar
kets to become nuisances. This has been,
time and again. established in courts Of
justice. in nearly every city of note in the
Union. Will not our City Fathers profit by
the experience which other cities have pur.
chased at enormous ratesf Can the City
Council Of Davenport expect to carry .
point in which the Councils Of older cities
have signally failed7 Nobody believes they
can; we trust they will not attempt to do
So It is impossible to vote our meat mar
kets nuissnces. Do the people about this
block have q word of complaint to utter re.
gsrding Kelly meat market? Not sylla-
ble. 1t 10 no more q nuisance than the
livery stables, vegetable markets, beer
shops-nay, not as much, and who speaks
of dragging them before the Council to be
voted nuissnces? Do the aldermen state
where a man may open q dram shop? do
they dictate as to where q citizen may
build livery stsblel Either of them may
be opened next door to an Aldermans
house. yet he don't dare bring them into
the Council as nuisances. Why then we'll
conducted meat market? There is no rea-
son In the world, and we defy any alder
man to give any But they say that Mr..
lie Claire wants the business attended to-;
that the city is bound to carry out con-
tract with him and Mr.. Davenport. What
if the city did make an unlawful contract
with them? Can the Council force citizens
to live up to that contract =? Never.
Mr.. Le Claire and Mr.. Davenport, want
their just dues and nothing more. This
they should have by all means Ito the last
cent. The city is bound to them; they
acted in good faith-let them not lose q
farthing. If the city has got its neck into
. halter, let it pay for getting out in the
same way that . private individual would.
These gentlemen will ask only to be reim
bursed for their expense and trouble. Let
the city do this. without whining. and be
on the look out in the future, that it does
not make any contracts that it cannot live
up to. Let every Alderman vote against
that ordinance, and for reimbursing Nessrs
LIE Claire and Davenport.

CHEAP GAs.-We recently exam
ined the model gas works of Anton Shearer
. German citizen who keeps the Paris
House on Second street, opposite Cannon
mills. The manner Of manufacturing coal
gas by this new arrangement, does net
differ essentially from the ordinary method
but it is done so cheaply and effectually
that We think it must come into use in such
houses or manufactures - consume gas in
large quantities.
The expense Of the whole apparatus in
Shearer's house is less than seventy dollars
aud the expense of manufacturing gae
enough to supply four burners one week ia
about thirty cemtsi The gas is of 4 fine
quality. In manufacturing it. Mr.. Shearer
uses about one bushsl Of coal per week in
making the gas, using for fuel the coke
only. 1t is q wonderful invention, truly.
Eg BY the following proceedings
Of > meeting held in Dubuque. it will be
seen that our neighbors are awake to the
Importance of having an agent in the East
to attend to the interests of the city. Our
folks appear to be asleep in this regard. II
we expect to gain that position which
nature designed We should occupy, We must
be up and doing. Let meetings be called
and active measures taken to bring this
highly important measure about.
,'At meeting held at the City Hall, on
Tuesday evening, pursuant to . published
call. for the purpose of taking measures to
have an Emigrant Agent in New York city,
John Hodgdon was called to the chair and
F. A. Gniffke was appointed Secretary.
After remarks by several gentlemen on
the object Of the meeting, the following re-
solution was adopted:
Resolued. That q committee of two per-
sons be appointed in each Ward in the city,
to procure subscriptions, and to collect mo
ney to defray the expenses of an Emigrant
Agent for three months, for the object set
forth in the published call for this meet
ing.
The following committee was appointed ::
First WarI-John Kries, Michael Cava-
nagh.
Second Ward-G. w. Scott John Beeh-
ler
Third Ward-R. Nolte, J. A. Chapline.
Fourth Ward-A Sittig. Charles Corkery
Fifth Ward-Peter Holtz. A. Kaiser.
On motion, the committee was requested
to make returns to John Hodgdon, Esq, al
chairman,
Upon considering the appointment of an
Agent, Mr.. Charles F. Wittenberg was Sc
lected.
A committee consisting Of +. A. Gni.fke,
P. Stimming and c.. ChiIds. was appointed
to correspond with Mr. Wittenberg, and to
aid in carrying out the objects Of the meet

The Light at Home.

The light at home how bright it beams
When evening shades around us fall,
And from the lattice far it CLEANS.
To love. and rest. and comfort all
When wcaried with the tolls of day,
And strife for glory. gold or fame,
How sweet to seek the quiet way.
Where loving lips will lisp our name
Around the light at home!
When tlIro' the dark and stormy night
The maynard wandcrcr homcwari flies,
low cheering is that twinkling light
Which tlro' the forest gloom lie spies
1t is the light Of home. He feels
That loving hearts will greet him there
AS safely thro' his bosom steals
The joy and love that Danish care
Around the light at home.
Tho light at home! how still and sweet
1t peeps from Wonder cottage door,
The weary lahore" TO greet
When the rough toi!s of dag are DER;
Sad is the soul that does not know
The blessings that the beams impart..
The cheerful hopes and joys that flow,
And tighten up the heaviest heart
Around the light at home.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1859-02-12

OLD AGE Beautiful is old age, beautiful
as the slow dropping mellow autumn Of a rich
glorious summer. In the old man, Nature
has fulfilled her work. She leads him with
the fruit Of a well-spent life: and surrounded
by his children and his children children,
she rocks him softly away to his grave, to
which he is followed with blessings. God
forbid we should not call it beautiful 1t is
beautiful, but certainly not the most beautiful.
There is another lite-hard, rough and
thorny; troddcn with bleeding feet, and
aching brow; the life of which the cross Is
the symbol a battle which no peace follows,
this side of the grave which the grave gasps
to finish before victory is won; and strange
that it should be SO, this is the highest life of
aman. Look back along the great names o:
history; there is none whose life has been
other than this.
