Editors Pres and Tribune:
Twas much gratiHed in reading tho report Of
the proceedings at the meeting Of property
holders, held at the Barnett Rouse on Saturday
evening iuat, to see that 10 many we're beoon-
ing aware Of the Importance Of permanency IN
the character of the improvements now in rFo-
gress and in contemplation IN our city.
The strong preference expressed for tbs
g Nicoson" pavement over alt others, R:Tea
hope that We are no: to be cursed with ano'her
nile Of those "gil4inous cobbles,' for they
will admit of no more mild expreasion-brt
rather TINT we are to hare one Rseeet IN our
city, which shall not be 1eproach to os- It
would seem to be the duty of cur City Council
to ignore "bouilders'' in listening to any peti-
tious for paving, for sureiy the testimony sgainst
them is so continually before cur eyes, that it
would hardly be possible to advocate them un-
hlushinglJ.
II taxpayers will but study their own latsr-
ests, they will not put down auother foot OF coo'
BILE pavement, and the disposition Of those rbout
to improve Oh tlark street, seems to foreehado#
the doom Of this great imposition, ss it has
grown to be. Let us have Improvements that
shall be such IN reality. and reflect credit upon
Us. al not being "penn5 wise and pound fool
| ish."
| The cost Of the "Nicolson" pavement, is
little more than thnt OF the - ''bculdeTs,' but
| would be cheaper At double their cost, than anI

or taos eau t7 laid, nth any but selected atos@e
I from the East. Is not the block be1~eru RlA

opposition to it By some of hepropeEtJ- -to'der
there, which surprises me much, as l had sup
posed them all 10 be better judges Of their Owl
interests, than such course would imply.
