COME Two Months ago, my House
y was entered by a gang of thieves, and a SIX
SHOOTER and GOLD WATCH stolen. The Six
Shooter numbered Lass, and was Navy
Shooter. Tho Watch was an open face one, with n
crack partly across the chrystai. 1t one Of r. @.
Beaseiey's make, Liverpool. The number I have
forgotten 1t is supposed the articles traded of
between this place and Mckinney, OF In the neigh
borhood of Cedar Hill.
Any one giving information Of the property will
further the ends Of Justice, and bring the thieves TO
punishment. I will give the Six-Shootcr for the
recovery Of the watch. -

DAILY COMMERCIAL.
BALfIM o RE, NJ D.
SATURDAY MORNING. Jan. 90, 1886.


We have perused with care the message of
Mayor Chapman to the City Councils Of Balti-
more: and had intended-as usual-to give
something like review Of or synopsis for
those of our readers who cannot take time to
90 over so lengthy document. But, on re-
Election, we consider it a public paper of so
much interest, so complete a history of the
several departments of the city government,
that we shall not offer inducements to any to
avoid a careful examination of it for them
selves, interested as every good citizen should
be in becoming well acquainted with the
character of the public improvements, and
the financial condition of the city which is his
home.
That our city has in a general way been well
governed, we may easily convince ourselves,
when we contrast the method of doing things
in Baltimore with what is customary in New
York. For years past, it would seem-if the
press of the latter city is not altogether at
fault,-that every attempt at economy and re-
form where the expenditures have been to the
last degree eXtravagant, has only sunk them
still more deeply in perplexity, wild expendi-
lures and reckless prohigacy; and contrasting
the complaints made, and the figures exhibited
showing how the citizens are plundered to
enrich the small army of contractors and other
officials, we may well congratulate ourselves
upon that comparatively limited scope, and
old fashioned way of administering a city
government, which prevails with u.s.
Although we did not intend-when we com
menced to pen this notice of the Mayor
message-to specify any particular portions of
it as especially worthy of attention where the
whole demands it, yet we may remark-that
that portion of it which treats of the growing
necessity which exists for widening and ex-
tending certain of the streets, should claim
the earnest attention of all who feel Just pride
in the present rapid progress of the city in
population and enterprise. There is a chance
now to make certain of these improvements.
when, after awhile. the encroachments of
business houses on dwellings, and denser
population with an increase in the value of
property about many of the localities specified,
will render all changes next to impossible
We hope, therefore, that the advice of the
Mayor in this regard, especially, will be duly
weighed, and where it is possible to do it, be
acted upon without needless delay.
In conclusion. we may say-that although
as a general rule and at time when Congress
and the Legislature are crowding our columns
We are not partial to long documents, yet so
much of real lnterest-we repeat attaches to
this message, considering too, the interesting
era we have arrived at in the history of the
city, that we not only have not begrudged its
pressure upon our columns but we have with
more than cheerfulness compelled our adver-
Using patrons to stand aside temporarily to
make room for it. We hope all who can do
so will go over it attentivey
