Our Dirty streets and the Contractors
OK Thursday last Councils adopted resoiu-
tion requesting the Mayor TO sign the war
rants Of the contractors for cleaning the streets
during the month of February. On the LIST
of March a committee of Councils waited
upon the Mayor and requested him TO sign
these warrants, which he refused to do. 1t
is notorious that the contractors did not clean
the streets during the month of February,
and as the work was not done, 1t is simply
defrauding the city OF 80 much money to pay
them the amounts which they claim.
In their resolution Councils recon-
mend that the Superintendent of Street
ClesniDg proceed at once to do the
work, thus taking 1t out of the hands of the
contractors, but on what grounds of right or
justice the money which those individuals did
not earn was authorized to be paid 1t Is diff.
cult to see. In Select Council a minority of
the Committee on Street Cleaning presented a
report recommending that the contracts
should be annulled, tha. the Mayor be autbo-
rized to readvertise for proposals, and that the
City Solicitor be directed to proceed against
the securities of the delinquent contractors in
the manner provided by law.
This is clearly the course that should be
adopted, and II the contractors fail to fulfil
their engagements to the letter, their securities
should be held responsible, and a little of the
right kind of vigor on the part of the Mayor
and City Solicitor would doubtless produce
some gratifying results.
We hope that the Mayor will adhere to his
first determination and steadfsstly refuse to
sign the warrants of the delinquent con-
tractors in spite of the request Of Councils.
The warm weather is fast approaching, and the
filthy condition Of the streets gives great cause
for apprehension as to the health Of the city.
II we are visited by some dreadful pestilence
next summer the street contractors will be
directly responsible for II, and not only should
they not receive the money that they never
earned, but they, or their securities, should be
obliged to appear in court and answer for their
criminal neglect.

presidential Cheerrulness,

"THE President smiled |" In fact, ever since
Inauguration day he has been in perpstually
smiling mood. The most commonplace re-
marks appear to tickle his fancy, the most
importunate begging for an Office brings
broad grin to his features; even the harmless
pleasantly of the Georgia Democrats in always
prefxing very obnoxious adjective to the
word Yankee is responded to by smile.
Now, Several very important questions arise
in connection with this smiling propensity of
the new President. Is it possible that he
never smiled before he took the oath of Office
on the 4th Of March, Or is it possible that he
may have been accustomed all his life to carry
about with him cheerful face, without the
circumstance being noticed by any one in his
presence3 Or can it be that every man who
has encountered the President at any time in
the past has been struck by the evidences of his
lightheartednesa, and yet has not regarded it as
ofsuffcient importance to be proclaimed to the
world? We are unable to answer these per
picking questions with that degree of positive
ness which will carry with it to the minds of
our readers the elements of authority and GER
tainty. Therefore we refrain giving any an
swer at all. Bat we cannot refrain from
observing that while President Grant smiles
quite as often as did his immediate predeces-
sor, the latter's method of smiling was radi-
cally different. The smiles of President Grant
start from his heart, and light up his face
with the contagion of cheerfulness. The
smiles of Andrew Johnson start from his lips,
wepd their tortuous Way to his dipasti va
region, and finding it already overburdsned,
dart back to his head, setting his face all aglow,
scattering his wits to the winds, and loosening
his garrulous and abusive tongue. If the Pre-
sident of the United States must respond
to every greeting, query, petition, observa-
ton, and joke with smile, we regard the
responses of President Grant as preferable to
those INDUCED in by his predecessor.

MARsHALL's ELIXIR.

HEADAoME. DYsPEPsIA. CosTIvENEss.
No medicine ever placed before the people
has SO suddenly grown into popular favor as
MARSHALL's ELIXIR. 1t not only cures
the diseases named, but so invigoratss and
strengthens the whole nervous system that
these, together with other alarming affections,
are prevented.
AS we'll might we expect darkness to remain
after the rising of the sun, as that these dis
eases will no. disappear after using this
ELIXIR. We claim no merit for it beyond
the good it has already accomplished; neither
do we propose with it to cure all the ills to
which flesh is heir, but we do assert that for
Headache, Dyspepsia, and Costiveness it is
the only radical cure. Btters and Pills will
fail to cure you; their effects are only tempo
rary and delusive; therefore, before your vital
powers have become weakened by continued
disease, try MARsHALL's ELIXIR. Price

No COMMENT upon the prevailing mode of
conducting legislation at Harrisburg could be
more significant and severe than the simple
statement of the reporter of legislative pro-
oeedings, that ''not moro than eight public bills
have become laws this session." Meanwhile
Governor Geary has signed twenty three pri-
yate bills relating to Philadelphia, three more
are awaiting his signature, about forty
additional private bills appertaining to this
city are In various stages of progress, and
legion Of private bills relating to other sec
tions of the State have been, or will be, passed
during the present session. Everything desi-
rsble or important in nine-tenths OF these
.priyate enactments could be more justly and
properly done, under the operation of general
laws. by the courts or by other local authori-
ties: and In many instances they are passed at
the request of interested parties to facilitate
schemes of jobbery or to legalize fraudulent
praotices. Meanwhile the interests of the
State are systematically neglected. The Com
mon School system remains unimproved' The
recommendations for the establishment OF
Board of State Charities are unheeded. The
financial system OF the Commonwealth receives
mn attention. and no efforts are made tC
,aholish old abuses and inequalities. fertions
ana ,uemorials for the accomplishment OF any
object OF general utility are treated with aus
dain. The legislators are absorbed In petty
schemes for the Advancement OF petty oDjects
and they sesm incapable OF rising into
higher sphere OF action.

Craw ford County 'Melish Gallant
Charge on an old Woman.

A correspondent, of the Little Rock
Gaxette, writing from Ultima Thule, Sc
vier County, on the 10Th ult, gives some
particulars of the cutting of Mrs. Nc
Kcan's store, at that place, by Captain
Anderson's company of militia free-bo
ers, led on by one Lieutenat Doak. At
ter forcibly taking possession of the
keys, he marched his command to the
store, when the door was opened and q
general pillaging commenced After
they had seemingly taken everything they
wanted, they started for ccmp. Our cor
respondent says:
March Dowcry,a freedman, who had
been ordered by Anderson To hold his
horse while they robbed the store, closed
the door and gave the keys to Mrs. Me
Koan 1t Doak and five others returned
after the command had started and de
manded the keys the second time, which
were given him, and they went into the
store and took whatever suited them. To
show you how little they knew of the
country and people, this 1t. Doak, with
painted wooden bucket in one hand fill
cd with jews harps, fiddle strings, horse
shoe rasps, files, needles and pins, taken
from the store, and pistol in the other
hand, was marching the yard cursing and
abusing Mrs Mexican and her husband
She very quietly told him that her hus-
band had been dead near twenty years.
iy1 replied "well it is some of your
Cd Id breed
Mrs. Mexican is an aged lady and has
been resident Of the county for more
than a quarter Of century, Her hus-
band was a member Of the constitutional
convention of 1896, and subsequently n
member OF the legislature, and there is no
woman in the land more respected for
her virtues
Our correspondent further says Of one
Of the parties robbed:
Mr.. Dennis went to the headquarters
ut Rocky Comfort to see if he could re-
cover his horses or get voucher for
them. Three Of the men who assisted
IN taking his property drew their pistols
ON him, marched him TO the picket lines
and told him to leave and il they caught
him within half mile of their camps
they would shoot the top Of his head off,"

Mrs. Stanton, the men have more

jealousy is at least large as emulation
Repealed by wrongs, in the way | have

Miss Stanton, said my informant

ways afterwards spoke well OF Winnie
Ream in her newspaper.
Ii is true that a good deal of asperslon
has been foully dealt at little Resm. The
women have never been able 10 get over

These literary women, any way, are the
most reckless of Bohemians.
No letters from this city were ever
more absolutely wild this causeless spleen
than Calhoun's aforenamed. She ran a
muck in Washington, and yet under
stood nothing about il. Swisshelm,
searching for victims, got afoul of Mrs.
Sprague dreadfully last year, and raised
such Indignation that even her undaun:ed
mettle was abashed Mrs. Ann S. Ste
phens is suing somebody for libel, and APP
preciating the pleasures of being abused
in print. The Roman Matron' is here,
but without a government commission
yet Little Ream is the Venus Vicirir.
She has met the enemy and they are hers.
Wherever deficient in talent these wo-
mems tongues raised her compensating
sympathy. | am not acquainted with
her for she is, indeed, as little conspicu-
Gus as any woman in Washington; but
her triumph seems to be complete, and
somebody says she is to go to Rome next
year Doubtless her female friends will
anticipate her with scandal, but Rome is
not the prude that Washington is. The
boarding house there is not tnthroned on
the Mons Captfohnius.

Price, the figure head ofthe Republican
newspaper, at Little Rock, has for some
time been preferring his claims to decen.
cy by opposing the outrages consequent
upon the i'll timed action of Gov. Clayton,
in calling out the militia His position
was, of course, one that the advocates of
murder, robbery and rape could not safe
" attack. So they began by gradual APP
proach, hike Grant took Vicksburg first
came dispatches from Rice, Roots and
Bowics, that the Repnblican was quoted
to sustain "rebel arguments" Then
came the final blow up--the report ofthe
committee appointed to investigate the
mode and manner in which the public
printing had been done. This report cx-
hibited the fact, that Price had received
pay for thousands of things never done
that false swearing had been INDUCED in
toaan alarming extent; that much of the
printing was done out OF the State, con
trary to contract; that much Of it was
miserably executed, etc. etc. This wa
