On motion, the Board adjourned.
To ALL CoScERNED.-The Board OF
Trustees contemplate number OF i'm
provements, not only advantageous, but
absolutely necessary for the permanent
prosperity Of the town. The only impedi-
ment is q lack Of funds; and we do trust
that no well.wisher Of the town or OF
its people will throw any obstacle In the
way of their accomplishing their ends.
We believe that they are honest ana
sincere In their intentions; and we be-
licye that the only difference between
the old and new board was that each
believed that different policy would pest
develop The resources and enhance the
prospcrity of our town. Let the past be
txSe r~nt a uartlpg.
let there be no issues between those who
should live in harmony; and let au work
on the platform Of prosperity to Manches-
ter and Happiness to it's people. Encourage
home manufactures; build up our own
mechanics; furnish labor for those unem.
ployed; look after our own INDECENT, and
by every conceivable means labor Tor our
own improvement; and a career OF much
use rulness awaits us. BY all means give
rs a cemetery, free schools, market.
house, and, if possible, free bridge and
Manchester will cease to be laughing
stock for the "outside barbarians."
OBsTRIPERous.- Joe Carter, a well-known
Cushite, living near the extreme end Of
Lawrence street, was yesterday Gagged for
refusing 10 allow an inspection of his pre-
misses by the special officer of the Board OF
Health. Joe was exceedingly wrathy, but
subsequently, cooled down, and was finally
released, it appearing that his ire arose
from misunderstanding of the law. Joe
Carter has generally borne good charac-
ter, and will, we trust, be more careiui IN
future.
