Coo,,up the market House.

1t is stated that disappointed candidate
at the Common Council Chamber last FRI
day night, leaped out of window upon the
roof of the Markethouse, and taking it in
coon style made his way the whole length
of the building, entering window in the
Collectors office at the south end. That
he did not fall through the roof at half a
dozen places is explained by the fact that
he was very careful in picking his way. He
gives no reasonable explanation of his ex-
traordinary conduct, and says that he must
have suffered some temporary loss of rea-
son in consequence of the excitement and
disappointment of the occasion.
