pocrisv, and the leaders themselves acknowl-
edged the state of affairs thus induced to be aw-
fnl. A new work was started, and the managers
of the relief and aid society were placed at its
head. He then gave an interesting description
of the barrackG erected as temporary homes,
and the contrasts presented in the different ten
cmCnts The worst he saw was occupied by the
family Of 4 blacksmith, who earned four dollars
a day. He said that on all the north side but
one American family had applied for aid, and
all the rest were going forward grandiy. 1t was
the hardest thing they had to do to keep things
out OF the clutches of those who had no right TO
them aud relieve those in need.
One of the worst tendencies of all was to
build a pine board city as they had before.
There was opposition TO the establishment OF
fire limits, and meeting of the city council
held for the purpose was mobbed and broken
up. But right at last prevailed, and there was
now every prospect that Chicago would soon be
lodnd sitting as Il queen again among the great
cities, again the Garden city. He alluded in Il
beautiful manner 10 the great Christmas charity
that had made SO many Chicago children
happy He said it showed there was still peace
ON earth and good will to men.

TIE Boston Advertiser makes a sharp
point against the Cincinnati pilgrims. One
of their chief complaints against Grant is
the allegation that he makes bad appoint
ments. But one of their favorite names
for the Presidency is that of Charles Francis
Adams whom Grant appointed the Ameri-
can arbiter in the Geneva Board. And the
Adcatiser wants to know if they are going
to prove the unftness of Grants appoint
ments by presenting one of his appointees
as fit to be President!
