SOME people are under the impression
that the city charter has been amended so as
to prohibit the council from issuing bonds
for money borrowed, or for any Indebtedness
except for debts contracted previous to the
passage of that amendment. We think they
are mistaken. The amendment of 1865 pro-
hibits the city from subscribing to the stock
of any railroad company, but We think there
is no other restriction. in that direction.

EDITOR AnGUs-How comes it that the
Contractors for Matchmaking the Camden
Road are allowed to put on the south end of
that road only six inches of stone and six
inches of gravel and shells, making a poor
road that will work into ruts in one or two
years?
The City contracted for Matchmaking
that Road with broken stone, twelve inches
in depth and eighteen feet in width, which,
covered with two inches of gravel, would
make good road that would wear for years.

changing the contract.

Monday Morning, May az, 1857.


The records of the United States Coast sur-
vey since Professor Bache assumed the direc-
ton of that important work, constitute an en-
during monument to his scientific eminence
and administrative ability. Ii any testimonial
to his worth as q man is wanted, it will be
found in the unanimous testimony of all who
in any capacity knew him, to his quick appre-
citation of all that was good in his fellow men
and his steady refusal to look for other and
darker characteristics. This testimony, $50
abundant now, will fail in the course of years.
1t is right and seemly that some monument
should attest the love and honor with which
this generation regarded Professor Bache and
we are glad to see thatAsuch movement has
already been begun. 1t is not proposed to
erect costly monument. 1t is to be simple
and transformations, like the man whose mem
ory it is designed to honor, and will be located
, at Washington, the scene of his labors. The
Boston Board of Trade, at their last monthly
meeting, adopted the following resolutions
offered by Hon. +. w. Lincoln: 81 .la 10 .
Whereas, 1t is understood that a monument
is about to be erected to the memory of the
late Prof ALEXANDER DALLAS BACHE, Super
intendent of the nited States Coast Survey,
and that an opportunity will be offered to the
mercantile community of Boston to testify
their respect for this great beneiactor OF COM
merce and science by contributing thereto
ReSOtUed, That the Board Of Trade of Boston
gratefully recognizes the eminent service rem
dered by Prof. BACHE to the commercial inter
ests of the world, of this country and of this
city, and especially his strong interest and val
liable counsel regarding the preservation and
improvement of the harbor of Boston, in aid
of which his personal services were freely rem
dered through series of years. t.
ReSOlUed, That they approve OF the serec-
ton of monument to his memory, and com
mend the same to the merchants OF Boston
and of New England. ai 15E
The committee having charge of subscrip-
tiohs in Boston consists of j. Ingersoll Bow
ditch, James NJ. Barnard, Commodore John
Rodgers, of the Navy, Charles G.. Nazro, Pres
Jident OF the Board of Trade, and Capt. G. o.
Boutelle, Of the Coast Survey. All American
citizens desirous of manifesting their sense OF
the worth and appreciation of the service OF
the late Superintendent of the Coast Sur rvey,
are invited to send their contributions to eth
er of these gentleman. Here in Portland we
are under. especial obligations to Prof. Bache
for his interest in our harbor and his valuable
suggestions for its, preservation and imDI Ioye-
ment. We trust the contribution of Portland
to perpctuate the name and lame of this great
man, will be worthy of the reputation of our
city, and the intelligence and public spirit Of its
merchants and business men. 49,. .fr
