and first MOI tgaSe on said railroad.
The several city loans in aid of this road fall
due at various periods, from December /, 1868,
| to April 1, 1871: One million five hundred
| thousand dollars on or prior TO T. bruary
| 1871, two hundred thousand dollars of which
| wall fall due on December l, 1868, and one hum
bred thousand dollars each on May l, 1869,
and August 1, 1860. At the time these sever
| al amounts shall become due the sinking fund
| provided for their payment will then be very
| neatly if not quite sufficient, leaving balance
| to be Otherwise provided for. nego iation for
| which is now Under consideration by the CITY
| and officers of the road.
The ciiy's liability for credit loaned in aid of
| the portland & Rochester Railroad Compa-
| n.y. amounts t, the sum of two hundred and
| fifty thousand dollars, payment Of which is Sc
cured by sinking fund and first mortgage.
This road, on comnliance with certain con-
ditions satisfactory TO the city, has the right to
! demand further aid to the extent of four hum
DIRE and fifty thousand dollars additional.
| The city's liability on account of the Build
| ing Fund" loan amounted, on The 29tl day of
| February last, to the sum of six hundred and
sixty-s.yen thousand dollars, and has been
further increased, by the negotiation OF city
| bonds. to the present time to the sum of seven
hundred and forty-two thou and ,llArs.

|
money has been loaned by the commissioners
| to aid in the erection of buildings, NANNY if
not wholly situated in the burnt district.
! CITY liabilities FIR raj I'd purposes and builC-
ing loan to the present time are one million
seven hundred and ninety-two thousand dol

That portion of the eity's indebtedness
technically termed its "funded debt" consists
| entirely ofdebis contracted for municIp i pur-
| poses in contradistinc,ion from aid extended
| by loan of credit to other enterprises, or for
| temporary purposes, and is provided for by a
| permanent sinking fund created by ordinance,
| which has been in operation for several years
| last past, from which has accrued the balance
| standing to the credit of the Committee en-
Reduction of City Debt, before alluded to-
The receipts to the sinking fund for the fore
going purpose, in accordance with the ordi-
nance establishing the same, will be amply
| sufficient TO pay the city debt as it shall fail
due from year to year.
For the payment of debts contracted by mu-
nicipal authority under the laws of the State,
the city is not only liable in it's corporate ca
pacty, but the property of individual citizens
l. also holden.
! At a low estimate. the city in its corporate
capacity owns real and personal property Of
not less than one million dollars in value.

YANKEE INGENUITY.-Our ingenious fellow
citizen, Mr.. w. o. Jones, who somehow has
got free ticket that admits him further into
the arcana of nature than common morrals
are privileged to go, has "broken out in a new
spot" As if the Dry Dock" the Hydraulic
Steering Gear" ard the Combined Rule,
Square and Bevel' were not enough to show
the versatility of his genius, he has dev sed an
apparatus for hosting goods in stores and
warehouses that discioses an entirely new ap-
plication of mechanical forces. A fixed Gel :
trail wheel, the to eth of which are tied to five
other wheels which move around circular
frameW orlz, is the MEDIUM through which the
power is applied to the shaft. A peculiar ex-
cs'lence OF Mr.. Jones' invention is that when
power is the paramount consideration the
betting is placed in connection with the gear
ing, but when power is secondary to speed the
betting can be placed at once aaI aoith1ut diff.
Guilty in connection with the shaft. A curious
mechanical problem is suggested by the wheels
of Mr.. Jones elevator. 1t has puzzled many
wise heads, and, we are told. has not yet re-
eeivel a satisfactory solution. The Genital
wheel, which is of the same size and has the
same number of teeth as the five whee by
which it is surrounded, make four revolutions
while the five outsr wasels m lse but three in
passing around tho circular framework.

There is no longer any doubt that the cleo
ton in Arkansas has resulted in the defeat Of
the constitution, though it was held under the
new reconstruction act which requires only a
maj 9rity of the votes actually cast at an elec-
ton to ratify constitution. A telegram TO
Gen. Grant leaves little room to hope that the
result has been what has been so confidently
anticipated. The whites constitute nearly
two-thirds of the registered voters. When
the question Of holding a constitutional con-
vention was submitted, the whites did not vote
in any considerable number, and the conven-
ton was carried two TO one. This time they
rallied, and voted with great unanimity against
the constitution. Alabama and Arkansas
having both failed to submit to the require
ments of Congress in the matter of RECONSTRUCT
ton, the Democratic press will now demand
that the whole reconstruction scheme be Civ
en- up; but the Republican party must meet
this demand with a stern refusal. IT the
Southern people prefer to live under military
government rather than accept restoration.np-
on equitable terms, they must be permitted to
do SO. The idea OF allowing the re Qualification
of anti-democratic governments in the South.
which viii constitute an ever present danger
to the country, is not to be for moment con-
ten lated. Nor canCongress, while it retains
the least conception of the requirements OF
justice, make the disloyal whites once more
the masters of the loyal blacks. Military rule
will cost the country something, but justice
pays best in the long run. The influx of emil
grants from the North and from Europe, and
the coming forward Of another generation not
so completely poisoned by the States rights
infection will in time make genuine recon-
struction possible. However, it does not fol-
low that because the first attempts at the res
toration OF Alabama and Arkansas have
proved unavaiiDg that the same thing will
happen in other States. In several of them it
certainty will not happen, South Carolina and
Mississippi, for instance. In Alabama the
reasons that led TO the unfortunate result are
well known. The facts about Arkansas are as
yet unknown, but there was no doubt the same
system Of terrorism and fraud practiced to keep
blacks and loyalty disposed whites from the
polls, that proved so successful in Alabama.

"A hours before lis recovery. His reasons for
this opinion are that the body was covered

of the canal is not clay; that at tho time OF his
