HUNT THEM Up.


The 7. T. II. continues its g:lbblc about
the necessity of additional voting places in
the Tenth and Seventh Wards Let us re-
fresh its memory with single fact; When
tho present city officers undertook to col
lect the Street Tax for the current year,
they made out tho notices from the poll
l,opks Of last springs election. In attempt
ing 10 collect the tax, they found they had
tic names Of seven hundred and fifty men
in the Tenth Ward, and Of six hundred in
the Seventh who could not be found !!
There acre no sueh men in those Yards !
They had I'LL voted in the Spring and, doubt
less, had voted the Democratic ticket; but
when the street tax was called for, they
were not to l,e found, and M citizen Of
those wards could aiee any account Of them.
Let the Z. G II ind these thirteen hun
drcd and fifty delinquent strcet-tax pnyers,
and it can then ask with II better face for
additional polling places. Until then the
public will remain satisfied that the places
already established hy law nrc quite sufti-
c;ent to give all Iona .tde citizens IN oppor-
tuuity 10 vote.

Speaking of improvements, there has been
one lately made upon the Erie road that IL
worthy the attention Of all railway managers !;
II cannot 1:ail to be noticed By all travellers.
Those lately over the Eric road must have no.
ticcd every now and then along that line, for
short spaces, that the CARS seem to run upon
rails entirely smooth, making no jar whatever
fn passing off Of one rail on to another. The
improvement consists Of new arrangement
Of the chairs, invented by one Of the en-
p1oyees on the Erie Road, and just beginning
to he adopted Instead Of spiking the chairs
upon cites, and resting the ends Of tho rails
loosely in them, where they soon get loose
enough to clatter and jar tue wheels, and
broom the ends Of the rails, the chairs are
placed between the ties, and fastened in their
places BY IN cfiectual, though simple arrange
ment Of bolts and keys; so that there can be
no possible variation III the level Of the two
ends of the rnils, since both mnst rise aud fall
alike. We late1y rode over the Erie road in
company with Mr. McCu1ioul, the former Su-
periDtendcnt Of that road, who first called our
attention to the pleasant change in the motion
Of the cars, and explained the cause; at the
same time declaring that he considered it one
Of the most valuable elittleimproyements which
hare been invented since railways we're inau-
guratcd. He said that the expense Of making
the change was but mere tribe, compared
with the great saving it will produce. Other
roads should look to it.-N. J. Tribune.
