When you hear loud voices crying
m As oil q womun in u pet,
And see furniture a-hying,
There is something wrong you bet
When children stop their riot,
And seem disposed to "get,"
Beware Of such quiet,
7befc is something wrong-you oet'
:. When hummer takes to praying,
And goes buck upon the wet,
Watch closely all he's saying
For there is something up-you Det.
When fellow comes the steeple,
And talks heavy Of bis set,
And runs down the common people,
He's busted egg you bet
Should youth and maiden squabble,
II he gets into u pet.
You may leave them in their hobble,
For it won't last long you bet.
And when Romeo is chanting
His songs to Juliet,
II anything is wanting.
1t isn't you you bet.
And now this song is ended,
II is time for me to get;
And If ii should lie commented,
He who sings will smile you bet.

an extension.
Alderman HARDY explained that the petition in

on the street rendered the widening impractcable,
and then those who favored the widening withdrew
their names. In relation to stopping at Morris street
he explained that the original proposition was 10

from the lower district would not couDtenance the
plan unless the extension ended ut Morris street,

directly Interested asked for an Improvement 1t

benefit TO the Few could be shown To be In opposition
TO the wishes or damaging TO the interests OF the
many; tliat unless parties who were interested In
matter would bring II up, those interested could
not be expected TO advance IT, and that the simple
fact OF ths extension being asked for only by parties
interested should not initiate against it.
The .'mnch" amendment was lost, and the men,
for the present al least and the paper was put on its
passage. The reading was again called for; but the
reader, stunned no doubt by the eloquence or his
friend had settled under the ledge OF The presidents
