T1x,os MrEr1Ne.-Last Friday there was
. Union meeting held At this pla;e. The
meeting was called together At short notice
and unfortunately: came in conflict with
two other meetings that were not known
Of At tho time of the call. Nevertheless 1t
was attended by over two hundred men,
who sought that place in preference to al
others. Had it been understood that ladies
were expected, the house would have>been
full. The object Of these Union meetings
ID, to unite the loyal sentiment Of the coun
try. In the performance Of that duty the
ladies' Of tho country can act IN important
part, and they arc especially invited to At
tend these meetings.
1t is designed to celebrate the second an

THAT CuLvEar-We retract all We ever
ssia::about the culvcrt across Bush street.
When we spoke Of the subject last week
We supposed it was to be covered. 1t Is
the most awkward concern We ever see"
cons,ruc ed in city. 1t endangers the life
u every person who may ride across it. and
will subject the city to ten times its value
for broken wagons. We hope the newly
elected Board will have good sense enough
to tear it up and make ono that IS safe.
