He thought that we could not all live by
Coal-we could not all become Coal beavers,
and we must look to other sources, besides
the Canal for trade and prosperity. We
must extend our trade, and hold out induce
ments for country people to come among US.
Country people like amusements-mucho of
the River trade had been lost to Alexan-
dria ,-4hecause everything was so fat. The
merchants did not exhibit that spirit of libe-
rality that they should. He came prepared
to vote for resolution authorizing the City
Council to make the subscription of $lO,-
900, and his constituents in the Third Ward
sometimes called Limerick" all went for
the subscription, and any member of the
Council from that ward who voted against
the subscription could not be reelected.
B. II. Berry suggested some alterations
in the phraseology OF the resolutions, which
being accepted, they were unanimously
adopted.
The Chairman, in accordance with the

committee, one from each ward: +. t. Wit

DEADENINo WALLS AND CEILINGs.-There
is NO greater nuisance in modern houses
than that of the transmission of sound through
parti-walls. Any practical, inexpensive and
efficient means of deadening sound will be
great boon.
Some persons always take corner house,
SO as to be free from the nuisance on one
side at least Is there no remedy The
late MIR. Cubbit had some trouble at Balmo-
raj with certain floors, and remembered
in taking down an old palace floor (msny
years before) vast quantities of cockle-shells
fell out from betwixt the joists. These had
been used in plugging The idea was acted
upon. Cookies were dredged, and brought;
the shells were cleaned and dried, and used,
with beneficial effect. The cellular spaces
thus produced absorbed sound. Some high
ly cellular texture may be applied to walls,
ceilings, and doors, which shall resist fire
and ordinary decay, allow Of finish, and yet
deaden sound. Whe is to invent and intro
duce such materials They may patent the
invention and make a fortune, if they will
only abate the existing nuisance and enable
us to have solid parti-walls and fire proof
floors, without being compelled to hear what
is going on up stairs and in thenext house.

MISCELLANEOUS READING.

The NAPOLEON FAxIHY. The silly stories
set ahoat, from time to time, as to the legiti.
macy Of the Emperor Louis Napoleon are
somewhat strange, when history and the i'm
probability of the truth of such statements
are taken into consideration.
The last and most ridiculous of all is the
statement that among the papers of Prince
Jerome were found letters from Louis Bona
parte, late King of Holland, denying the le-
gitimacy of Napoleon the Third, and that
these papers were sent 70 England for safe
keeping. If such statements were true, is
Louis Napoleon the man to let them out Of
his clutches
The father of Napoleon the Third, the
late King of Holland, in his own writings
and under his own signature, treats these
unfounded statements as they deserve, with
contempt. When he, Louis Bonaparte, was
on his death bed, and his son, now on the
throne of France, was in prison in the for
tress of Ham, he wrote an appeal to the
French Government to allow his son, Louis
Napoleon, to visit him before he closed his
eyes in death, or, in his own words, "tc hold
him once more in his arms" This was
parental appeal-not one to press bastard
to his bosom this appeal was the cause OF
Louis Napoleon efecting his escape from his
dark and dreary prison, if we can believe
his own statements.
Those who are familiar with the portraits
of Louis Bonaparte will readily discover the
resemblance between him and his son, the
Emperor of the French the leady appearace
of the eve especially attracts the attention of
the beholder; the cheek bones and lips, as
we'll as the general outline nf the head and
face, cannot we'll be mistaken. His walk,
too, is much like his father before he became
afflicted. paralyzed.-Co n. T. Herald.
