sible and honest native of Bavaria defends,
through the Alexandra Gazette, the position
of Gen. Cass concerning the protection due
naturalized Americans while visiting Their
native countries on the continent of Europe.
The following extract from his article is IN
ieresting:
\ person can quit my native country
without Inolestation, after he remains till
he is lwenty-One years Of age, and takes
his chonce at that time of being drawn for a
term of military service. If he leaves af-
ter he is fourteen and before he is twenty
one he leaves with his future obligations
hanging over him, and he knows it. lie
knows If he afterwards returns, he must
either then take the chances from which he
has escaped, or hire q substitute These re-
marks apply to those who leave by them
selves. III the father of a family wishes 10
emigrate, he is at liberty to take all his
children with him without difficulty, except
such as are about twenty-one years of age,
and even as to them the case may be ad-
justed. But if young man over fourteen,
who has been protected by the government,
aud educated almost entirely at the public
expense, sees fit to move OF before he has
made any return and leave his father and
mother behind to the protection of strangers
and ii he chooses afterwards to return,
he is held to the duty from which he had es-
capped.

ANOTHER HAUL ON THE CRY TREASURY
The Board of Councilmen, it appears, have been
at another corrupt job, quite in keeping with
their usual proceedings, whereby the City
Treasury is in danger Of being defrauded out of
good round sum- The facts are these
The Crotch Water Commissioners last sum.
mer, in accordance with their charter, adver.
tised for proposals to build gates, portion OF
aqueduct, DC, for the new reservoir in Central
Park Eight or nine estimates were submitted
by responsible parties, and in October last the
contracts were opened, and the award given to
Baldwin & Jaycox, their estimate being some
eighteen thousand dollars lower than either of
the others
This contract was seat to the Board of Alder
men, and By them confirmed by nearly a unani-
NOUS vote, since which time it has hung fire in the
Board Of Councilmen until last Monday, when it
was called up and instead of receiving the ap-
proval Of that body it was rejected, aud reso-
luton adopted directing the Croton Water Com
missioners to make loose open contract with
Fairchild, Walker & Co. And now it remains to
be seen whether the Board Of Aldermen will take
the back track and adopt the contract originated
by the Councilmen, thus opening up another
fine chance to plumber the already depleted City
Treasury.
The Croton Aquecuct Board very properly
and In accordance with Law accepted the loves,
