[ herewith present, for such action as
may be deemed appropriate, the account,
with explanatory documents, OF Wm.

Metropolitan Police Commissioners, the
Tax Collector on Privileges and the City
Register.
Ia April last, r. C. BrinkIey, Esq,
petitiOned you to give him 8 credit on

will be promptly aud equitably inside.
At q former meeting of your body, a
report of the WOrkhouse Committee was
adopted, ~instructing the Mayor to adver-
tise for plans and estimated cost OF a
workhouse. This has been deferred. be-

Behind the Lighthouse.

Old fogyism is not quite dead. People
are still to be found who think that health
is promoted by depletion Was there
ever such false logic Nature is the grand
antagonist of disease, and the depleters
propose to PROSTATE Nature, in order, one
might suppose, to give the enemy double
chance at the life ofthe patient !! The
true practice is SO to invigorate the vital
powers as to render them an overmatch for
the elements of disease. This can be done
with uOsrErTER's sToMBcH BITRERs. Of
all vegetable tonics they arc the most pow
crful and the most genial. At this season
when even the strongest organizations are
liable to be affected by the alterations of
stringent cold and malarious moisture,
this inestimable protective medicine is es-
pecially needed. Persons predisposed to
billiousness, dyspepsia, constipation, in
termittent fever, or any of the complaints
which cold weather superinduces or ag-
gravatcs, should take it regularly through
out the Winter and Spring months. It is
absolutely pure and harmless.

rr lbrll e tn Andrew johnson.

Thurlow Weed, in the New York
Commercial Advertiser, uses the
following language +:
elm principle, in patriotism, and
in integrity, we unhesitatingly be-
lievo that President johnson has
the advantages of his Radical ad-
yersaries. We believe that he sim
ccrely and honestly desires the loyal
restoration Of the Union, and the
re-establishmcnt Of law and order,
and the prosperity of the people.
On the other hand, We as sincerely
believe that Chase, Sumner, Butler
and Other Radical aspirants for the
Presidency, pursue their selfish pur-
pose reckless Of all consequences,
and that, for a negro vote in 1868,
they are ready to hazard the whole
future safety and welfare of the gov
crnmcnt and people. But of what
use was President Johnson's patri-
otism and integrity even to his
country, his party, or himself! He
has great intellectual strength,
slecpless industry, high courage,
and he entered upon the discharge
of his Executive duties honestly and
anxiously intent upon serving his
country usefully and honorably.-
And yet the good he aimed at is not
accomplished. Of course there is
screw loose somewhere. Can't
it be found and keyed up in time
to avert impending evils and dan
gcrs!"

The party opposed to the Democ-
racy always seem to be peculiarly
unfortunate with their Presidents.
One General Harrison) died with
in one month after his election. -
The Vicc-prssident, Tyler, who was
elected with him, was threatened
with impeachment by his own party.
The next President chosen by them
was General Taylor. He died with
in fifteen months after his election.
His successor, Mr.. Fillmore, Vice
president, was denounced by the
party which elected him as traitor.
The next in order of succession was
Mr.. Lincoln. His choice on the
FIRST term produced terrible civil
war. He was re elected, and was
murdered within a month. His
successor, Mr.. johnson, elected on
the same ticket, his party proposes
to remove from Office before the ex-
piration Of his term. by revolution
airy violence. Dissatisfaction, war,
murder and terrible discord are the
natural accompaniments of the
Presidency when it is not in Demo-
cratic hands. The people hereafter
will remember the lessons of the
past ..
