tn. nav adrninistratSd& went into
Office six months. ago. Hardly sufficient
time has elapsed since then to afford us
an opportunity to test the merits of their
conduct of affairs, but if popular opinion
be consulted it will be found to allow al
most unanimously that they have done
well. This result is the more c-editable
to the present incumbents when we reflect
how sensitive the community had been
made to mal-administration by the mis-
conduct Of successive Councils for years
preceding. Every motion of the present
occupants of the municipal Offices, was
narrowly watched and keenly criticised.
A new charter had to be put in operation,
which pointed to no precedents and con-
tanned mo special instructions-a diff
cult undertaking at all times, but pecu-
liarly so under the circumstances oppress-
ing our city last April. Yet it must be
grateful to the ears of Mayor Flanders and
his coadjutors to hear the murmur OF ap-
prevail which swells up from every side.
When they entered Office the financial as
pect of affairs was appalling. Our bonds
were unstable, the interest coupons IN
paid. the matured.capital dishonored, the
temporary certificates despairingly issued
to contractors, were discounted at ruin
GUS figures, blight had fallen upon our
hoe RI
be paid for all that official extravaganza
continued to contract for, except the mis-
cradle pittance doled out to the poor
school teacher and the daily laborer.
The affairs of the late city of Jefferson
were disgraceful, and involved beyond ex-
pectation even.
And, perhaps, more than all, the igno-
rance, neglect and confusion in the &C
counting departments Of the previous
city government had cast such cloud OF
uncertainty and apprehension as to their
extent, about our debts, that only the
most rigid scrutiny and the boldest hon
esty in acknowledging and settling
promptly all claims presented with de-
cent semblance of right to back them,
saved the new administration from fatal
embarrassments. Administrator Shaw's
semi-annual report and the addenda an
nexed give an excellent exhibit of the ac-
tual financial movements of the city up
to the end of June. On the fourth Of
April the amount Of interest due and un-
paid by the city was upward of $500, 900,
which, added to the matured and unpaid
capital of the one million loan, footed up
more than $3.50, OOO But this amount
was easily to be managed in comparison
with the legacy of then unascertained
indebtedness bequeathed, to be funded in
the S3,0O0,0 900 seven per cent bonds, or
otherwise liquidated, as the new Admins
traitors best could. 1t has since been called
in, and found to amount as follows:

what does Reason saw I?

The iittle mongoose when bitten by o deadly
serpent resorts 10 certain plant, eats Of IT, and
escapes the effect Of the poison. That Is instinct.
Human beings on the other hand, must depend
on reason and experiencein selecting the means
Of protecting health and life against unwhele-
some influences. Now, what does reason say on
this vital subject? Does It not tell US that 10
invigorate and purify the system Is the best way
to protect 1t against the invisible poison which
generates disease? Surely it does. The next
question is, what guide shall we follow in choos-
ing medicinal safeguard? Reason replies let
your monitor be experience. Well, the expert
ence Of eighteen years comprised In one unbro-
Ken series of satisfactory testimonials assures
US that Hostetter's Stomach Bltters possess
strengthening, regulating and antiseptlc prop
erles which are notcomblned In the same happy
proportions In any other preparation extant
This therefore Is the antidote to which reason
bids us resort when our health is imperilled
either by the malaria which produces epidemIe
disorders, or by any other cause, whether in
herent and constitutional or connected with our
habits, occupations and pursuits.
The venom OF a noXious reptile is scarcely
more subtle and dangerous than that which
turks in foul air and impure water. To escape
the feyers bilious disorders, disturbances of the
the bowels, and other serious maladies produced
by these insalubrious elements, 1t Is absolutely
necessary that the stomach and all the secretiye
organs should be, so to speak, in robust condl-
tlon. Upon the amount of resistance which the
vital system can oppose TO the deleterious infiu-
ences that assail it, the safety Of the health de-
pends, and 1t is because the GREAT VEGETABLE
INYIGoRANT imparts energy and regularity to
the most important functions of the body, that
1t can be recommended and guaranteed as an
preventative medicine.-Sepl-lm.
