A RIP AT THE RECORDER.

Gerry.

It was never known how wisely the
Great Civil Engineer of the Universe
shaped the earth's surface, till city en-
gineers and city paving contractors
made a Job of the business. Then ca
nails paid, and il was profitable to cut
trenches for streets, and leave peoples
houses, as everywhere in Chelsea, on tbs
summit of frightful p~recipices. A poor
devil no sooner finds his shanty on top
Of an unnavigable canal bank than a
terrific order comes for him to pave the
sidewalk. A Russian ukase is not more
imperative, and the penalty for disObe-
dience is Imprisonment in a filthy jail.
A pet contractor is always at hand to do
the little paving job, as a matter Of
personal kindness, for a round
sum, and the frightened subject
of q wise paternal city government gives
the contract to some kind-hearted pet OF
IVA Some time ago a notice to pave
was served ON Judge Tom Brown. He
declined Il obey the edict, and was order
ed before the magnate who dispenses
Justice in the Recorders Court. There
was no felony committed, there was no
indictment, no written specification OF
wrongs done, and the alleged culprit
must 20 to jail. Instead of this he gave
bond to reappear in the hallowed pre-
cincts of Justice. He wa again once or
twice arrested, and atIength exasperated
beyond endurance he filed a bill before
Chancellor Morgan, the purpose being to
test the rights and authority of acOrpor-
alton that deals thus savagely with its
helpless subjects. The Chancellor atOnce
issued his mandate which operates most
gratingly upon the nerves Of the Re
corder and upon those Of pavement
contractors, and it will be determined
at last by what authority citizens are
"imurisoned for deb" due the corpora
ton. Other citizens, not lawyers, could
not afford to fight the power Of the city
with its saiaried attorneys, and very
many Of these called yesterday upon
the limb of the law who undertakes the
task of having this question adjudicated
and thanked him for his action in the
matter. Tomorrow we will publish a

BECAUSE a person has a bad cough it
should not be inferred that consump-
ton has set in, although a cas- of on
sumption is rarely met with unaccOm-
panied by a distressing cough. Where,
however, a disposition to pulmonary
disease exists, a cough, if left to itself,
strains and racks the lungs, and wastes
the general strength, and soo estab-
fishes an incurable complaint. In all
cases, then, 1t is the safer plan to Get
rid Of a cough, cold or hoarseness with
out delay, and for this purpose no rem
