CONTESTED ELEcr1oa Since the Citv

CONTESTED ELECTION Since the City
Council have determined to purge the polls, SO as
to ascertain who is elected Superintendent of the
Gas Works. it seems to us that it would be wise
policy in the contestants to get that body to order
another election, aud thus let the question be set.
tied by the sovereigns themselves. Of all the an-
noyances that an Office seeker can be subjected to,
we know OF nope to equal contested election
Weeks and possibly months will be consumed in
summoniDg witnesses aad taking depositions and
both aspirants will be b!ed to the bottom of their
pockets iu paying expenses. IF another race were
determined upon, the people would promptly de-
eide between the two, but one day would be re.
qure1 to settle the question, and q great deal OF
unkindness would be avoided. We have not ex.
amined the charter to see whether or not the
Council have right TO order new election at the
reqaeat OF the contestant; but if they have, the
dispute now existing could be decided by the peo-
pie in less time and at less expense, than in any
other way.

No grounds indeed are too insufficient, no
supposition too incompatible with reason, for
Mrs. b. to build her alarms upon. Sometimes,
although we lodge upon the second story she
imagines that the window is being attempted
sometimes, although the register may be down,
she is confident that the chimney is being used
as the means of ingress.
Once, when we happened to be in London
where she feels, however, a good deal safer
than in the country-we had real alarm, and
Mrs. B. since | was suffering from quinsy-
contracted mainly by my being sent about the
house o'nights in the usual scanty drapery-
had to be sworn in as her own special consta-
BILE.
"Henry, Henry" she whispered upon this
occasion, ''there's a dreadful cat in the room" +"
Pooh, pool p l gasped ''its only in the
street; I've heard the wretches. Perhaps they
are on tiles"
"No, Henry There, don't want you to
talk, since it makes you cough only listen to
me. What am l to do, Henry I'll stake my
existence that there's a-Ugh, what's that ?''
And, indeed, some heavy body did, there
and then, jump upon our bed, and off again at
my wife's interjecton, with extreme agility.
| thought Mrs. B. would have fit, but she
didn't. She told me dear soul, upon no ac-
count TO venture into the cold with my bad
throat. She would turn out the beast herself,
single-handed. We arranged that she was to
take hold of my fingers, and retain them, until
she reached the fireplace, where she would find
a shovel or other offensive weapon fit for the
occasion. During the progress of this expe-
dltlon, however, so terrible a caterwaulng
broke FORTH as it seemed, from the immediate
neighborhood of the fender that my disconcert-
ed helpmate made most precipitate retreat.
She managed, after this mishap to procure a
light and by acircuitous route, constructed of
tables and chairs, to avoid stepping on the
floor, Mrs. B. obtained the desired weapon.
1t was much better than play to behold the
heroic woman defying grimalkin from her en-
inence and to listen to the changeful dialogue
which ensued between herself and that far
from dumb, though inarticulately speaking
animal,
