just matters SO far as practicable, viz: Mr.
BRADLEY CARPENTER, Mr.. S. II. RowND, Mr.
THOMAS WALKrP. Among the residen, prop

but little difficulty, and have succeeded in
making satisfactory arrangements with near.
ly all. There arc one or two obstinate cases,
but they do not materially affect the enter
prise. To make adjustment with the non
resident property holders. Of whom there are
quite number, will of course consume some
time, but it is thought can be done with but
little vcxation. Mr.. Brown, we understand,
shows commendable spirit of compromise
and fairness, which is everything in the easy
settlement of this business. A few years
ago these streets could have been Strengthened
with but triaing trouble; but the matter has
run on from year to year ard tho lots have
been sold off to parties who have improved
them, till now the work has assumed large
proportions. The matter has finally been
brought to climax, however, by the danger
Of the streets being entirely shut up. and it
is hoped that full settlement will not be longer
postponed. Surely, there is nothing like a
stitch in time.

Messrs. Editors AS the prevalence oil
smallpox in our State elicits the frequent in
quiry as to whether ro.vaccination is neces-
sorry, will by your permission, make the
following statements through your columns :
1t is generally admitted by medical men
that all adult persons who have not been
vaccinated since childhood should be re.vac-
cinated, and that there is no certainty that
they are protected against variola unless this
is done. Re-vaccination il the only sure
method Of ascertaining whether the prophy.
Tactic effect Of former vaccination is lost.
Since there is not, as many suppose, any
definite length Of time in which the influence
of vaccination is lost, prudence dictates that
every adult, who was vaccinated during child
hood. sh ould be re.vaccnated. Should the
virus take effect, it proves to the patient that
he was not protected; while, on the other
hand, if it does not produce any impression,
the subject has the satisfaction of knowing
that he is not liable to the influence Of small
pox.
