Well done, dear Hun you'll own ut last,
This thing Of being married
Is better far than single lie
That realm so bleak and arid,
In which you're MIR no doubt surprised
SO long a time you tarricd.

You could not shun loves rainbow bright
With its unrivaled Hughes,
For hearts like yours always won
When such rare beauty wOos.
I'd drink TO you this happy hour,
If ruby wine near;
Or, might bring you down to Sche-
Dam Schnapps and Iager-beer,
But if might, why hang the luck,
could not get it here
And so my heart shall give "dry So"
The sentimentGt owes
Here's every joythat earth can yield,
Dear Hun, to you and yours,
And may your loves burn bright as now
While life itself endures.

ton a. our own Is would b permitted 70 ex-
list twenty.four hours We warned tho public
before, and we repeat the warning now, that II
the people In the different wards do not clean
the streets on their own responsibility, and at
their own expense, VIC shall have deaolatiug
pestlence in our midst before the Fourth of July.
1t is contrary to nature and experience that the
mass Of putrefaction which many of the streets
present can swelter under hot sun without breed
ing disease. There is not the remotest prospect
that the authorities will remove 1t; they are too
busy about the spoils Of Office, and too wickedly
reckless of public health and life. The residents
of each ward should call meetings, raise funds
and 60 to work at once to cleanse their own
neighborhood. Ifthey do not, they may prepare
for devastating epidemic this summer.

ANOTHER JoB.--The Police Commissioners
have appointed an auctioneer for the sale of
unclaimed property under the charge Of the
property clerk. This is disreputable job.
The appointee was policeman, aud at the same
time member of the Republican Central Com
mittee Club, which is contrary to police regula-
tons, and his present appointment is sinecure
Of $500 per annum at the expense of the unfor-
tunate taxpayers. The whole property sold in
this manner does not pay the salaries Of the two
clerks who have the care of it. And yet another
official is appointed. Would it not be cheaper to
make present Of this property to the poor, or
to throw it into the North river? What necessi-
ty is there for an auctioneer? The police force
appear not to be overburthened with work
Could not some one Of the number sell this pro-
perty for lack Of having anything better to do !!
Or could not any ordinary auctioneer sell il at the
usual commission?
