HoasE AND VEHICLE AzAa8.--Will not some
public spirited of enterprise start such an in
stitution in our place 1t is needed above all
things for the accommodation of our farmers who
have stock to sell or buy. Then we want shell
road to Ocean View, two bridges to Portsmouth,
street railrod, seven insular and continental
telegraph lines from the mouth of Pudding Greek
to the City Hall also, wharfs mile wide, fire
plug on every corner of the street, three opera
houses, frst-cass Theatre where people can be
drawn by the admonishing power of pleasure,
two pea-nu crackerys, and patent oyster open
ing, less wood, and no one to cut it, and last,
though not least, more spirited regard to sus-
tain the press by a more liberal and wiser patron
age. What we don't want is less idle negroes,
more law and less forms, no more garroting, and
officers that feel an interest in the welfare of the
city and the security of its inhabitants. That's
all at present.

blue noses now seen on our streets, to say nothing
of swelled heads and sprained ankles, which keep
us busily hunting "Dirt Dauber's nests" for
poultices, make us caution our readers to beware
of slipping, if they will try the-ardent Read
