THE FAMILIES OF DECEASED Ply.
sIcIANs "A fund for the relief of the
widows and orphans of deceased physi-.
clans is now engaging the attention OF
the profession, in consequences OF the
recommendation of the American Me /
ical Association. A plan has been pro-
posed to establish asylpms near large
cities where universities are in operation
and educational advantages can be
secured. To raise the necessary funds,
a contribution of three dollars from
each physician is suggested, and esti-1
mating the number of members in the
United States at 100000, sum. Of
$3.50, 900 can be obtained to purchase
the ground and erect suitable build ings.
To defray the expenses of supporting
the establishment, an annual assessment
of three dollars is to be made, and the
payment of this sum will entitle the
family of the contributor to the benefits
of the charity. 1t is calculated that
$4,000 would be sufficient for the
support of the asylums, and that
$500, 900 would be available for paying
pensions to the widows and orphans. S

Jacob Elgin, carpenter, fell from a
scaffold on which he was working, in
the West End, aud cut himself very
severely about the head and face. The

wound. DR.. Shipley was called in and
sewed up the cut, and he is now doing
as well as could be expected.

PRocEEDINGs OF CoUNCIL.-I notice by a
reading Of the proceedings Of the City Council
az published in the Gazette OF yesterday, that
the Board of Aldermen have Laid on the ia
ble' two very important bills that were pissed
by the Common Council. One was IL reference
to the Mayor giving bond and security Tor Il
was in relation TO the public destruction OF the
due bills, coupons, &c, belonging to the Cor
poration. These two bills were certainly high.
~ important to the public welfare, and should
have been passed without single vote against
either; but. much to tho surprise Of the pubic,
they were Laid on the table" l am informed
that the arguments used in the Board of Alder
ment against The passage of these bills con-
sisted in the sagacious supposition that the m
coming Mayor might consider it 9 PREDICTION,
on him: and that in all probability he would
not like it; and that the Committee on Finance
had been, from year to year, in the habit Of re-
porting that they had destroyed so much OF the
Corporation Indebtedness, ana as TINS was the
custom, it would be unwise to have the bills
destroy ed by the Council Ill public. These,
am advised were the cogent reasons urged
against the passage Of these salutaTy bills, and
caused them to be Laid on the table" The
general welfare will readily see the W sdom Of
such opposition to its safety, snd VIII cheerful
~ accept the proposition that the citizen who
is so self-sacr;icing as to act as Mayor, should
be allowed to do SO upon his own conditions,
and that bond and security should not be re-
auired Of him, lest it should offend his notions
of freedom Of official station. had hoped that
the late Council would have accomplished
something in the way Of throwing around eve.

is left to run the risk of time and CHANGE. To
